Chapter 22: Night

On TV, while the bald head was still babbling, Lily and the redhead were already putting the cooked food on the table.

Although, the children were still eating spicy noodles and dismissive of the big meal on the table.

But the procedure that should be followed still has to be followed.

Birthday candles are lit one by one, lights are turned off, and a wish is made.

Wang gradually had to go to the table and sing the birthday song.

Among the two women and a group of children, he stands out from the crowd with a height of 180.

This also made Wang Yan, who was clapping his hands and singing, feel a little embarrassed inexplicably.

Fortunately, except for the redhead's teasing intentionally or unintentionally, the party went smoothly.

In this process, Wang gradually let these children around five years old know that he is really good at playing games.

Belch...

Of course, only in the eyes of these five-year-olds.

But, that's it, it's enough to make other children express their envy for Jean.

Xiao Jean looked at Wang Yan's eyes, and there was a little bit of admiration.

Before you know it, two hours have passed.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, parents finally came to pick up their children.

Jean's birthday party is also officially over.

When Wang gradually was about to say goodbye and leave, Lily said goodbye.

"At night in Brooklyn, security is not good. The Bronx, where you live, is even more chaotic, so for your safety, you might as well stay. ā€

The woman in red also advised: "The parents of those children live in a nearby community, and even the taxi driver doesn't dare to take you to the Bronx so late when you go to the Bronx." ā€

"I also live in Brooklyn and I'm not going back tonight. ā€

"But, is this convenient?" asked Wang gradually looking at the two women and a boy.

"It's okay. Lily gestured to the corner room, "You could... Lived in Jean's father's former study. ā€

Jean also said in a pleading tone, "Brother, stay." It's my birthday today, so I can play the game for half an hour more, and you can accompany me. ā€

Wang gradually groaned, although he still felt a little inappropriate, but for safety reasons, he stayed.

After playing a little more with Jean, he informed Lily and walked into the study.

In the study, there is only a simple bed, except for a lamp and a few books on the desk.

The shelves were empty.

Wang gradually guessed that the shelves should have been filled with books by Lily's ex-husband.

And what is left behind should be Lily's?

He flipped through the books at random.

"Tagore's Poems", "Shelley's Poems", "Frost's Poems"...

Can't you see that under Lily's bumpy figure, there is still a literary girl's heart hidden?

Wang gradually couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

He lay on the simple bed, listening to the sound of Lily and the redhead talking outside the door slowly disappearing, and he soon became sleepy.

At this time, the redhead was already lying on the bed in the master bedroom, waiting for Lily to finish telling Jean the story, and then the two were ready to talk privately.

But who knows, Jean's eyes are getting brighter and brighter after listening to Lily's "I Am the Archmage".

And Lily, under Jean's constant request, could only continue to speak.

Alas, who made the little one have a birthday today?

And just like that, the time came to midnight.

Lily finally walked out of Jean's room.

But instead of going straight back to the bedroom, she went to the kitchen.

This "I Am an Archmage", although the plot is simple, it is indeed very emotional.

She needs a glass of milk to relieve herself.

But when she turned on the light in the kitchen, her pale blue eyes suddenly saw a few spicy strips left.

So, the ghost sent a god to pick up a few and eat them.

Then, like a cat who steals Mexican food and is spicy with chili peppers, she is so spicy that she can't speak.

Lily spat out her pink tongue as she hurriedly opened the milk and took two big sips.

Finally, the spiciness was completely suppressed.

But Lily looked at the spicy strips and was fixed, and then, a faint smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She glanced at Jean's door, then turned to look at the study.

Then, I took a deep breath, as if I had made some big decision.

...

In strange places, Wang gradually always slept very uncomfortably.

After tossing and turning for a long time, he finally entered a state of confusion.

But suddenly, the door squeaked open.

It woke him up in one fell swoop.

Who?

What for?

The king gradually turned over and turned his head to look at the door.

I saw a dark shadow cautiously enter the study and close the door.

Burglary?

Unexpectedly, I didn't meet it in the Bronx, but I met it in Brooklyn.

Wang gradually held his breath and slowly picked up the poetry book on the bedside.

Prepare to use it as a counterattack weapon when the opponent approaches.

I saw that the black shadow seemed to be familiar with the furnishings here, and walked briskly to the desk.

Just as Wang was about to make a move, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

How is this dark shadow a bit like Lily?

After a few more moments, he confirmed.

It's the sign-in officer, Lily.

She's crazy?

The next room is Jean!

She still has that redhead girl at home.

Wang was about to speak, when suddenly Lily whispered, "Don't make a sound. ā€

"After the party, I got a phone call. Lily whispered, "Tomorrow Jean's grandparents are coming to see Jean." ā€

"In that case, I—" Lily paused, "and I can't give you a reward." ā€

Although Wang gradually also has a little bit of ape, at this time, he still feels that the other party is unreasonable.

He whispered, "What if I am discovered?"

And Lily really didn't seem to hear clearly.

She turned on the lamp and asked, "What did you say?"

At this time, Wang gradually saw Lily's appearance clearly under the dim light of the table lamp.

I saw that her golden hair was half-draped behind her head, and her snow-white skin reflected the light of the table lamp.

Wang gradually swallowed his saliva unconsciously and continued to look down.

On her bumpy body, she wears a translucent red pajama made of lace, her slender legs are wrapped in pure white stockings, and her black strappy high heels make Lily even more attractive.

She walked over with a swaying body, and said softly, "It's the first time since I divorced his father that Jean has been so happy. ā€

"It was also the best day he had with his friends in such a long time. ā€

Lily reached out and took the book of poems from Wang Yan's hand, flipped through the two pages, and then said, "The little boys who came to the party today were all invited by me to their house, otherwise no one would have come to Jean's party." ā€

"And from today onwards, Jean shouldn't be without friends at school. ā€

She stroked the hair around her ears and looked down at Wang Yan.

"Thank you for all this. ā€

With that, he buried his head in it...

The king gradually breathed and swallowed back what he was about to say.

Lily, on the other hand, glanced up at Wang Yan.

Then turn around...

A moment later.

And at this moment, a touch of red hair outside the study door flashed away.

Wang Jian and Lily didn't find out...

(Let's see if we can send it out...) I can't change it again)
