Lu Li originally thought it was just a small dinner party, saying it was a party, but in fact, it was just a few more big dishes, and then preparing a few bottles of red wine to celebrate the new member of Brandon and Jasmin's family. www.biquge.info didn't expect that Lily and the others would also come over, and the scale of the dinner suddenly began to grow.

Ronald famously said, "The dog's nose smelled something delicious and came all the way." It made everyone laugh.

However, Lu Li knew that it was Cole who called them and invited them to come over to celebrate together. That's a good thing, the party is always as lively as possible, not to mention the party that celebrates the new life, which makes everyone even more welcome.

Lu Li then asked Cole to call the Marshall Valley Ranch next door and invite Robert and Chloe to come over, as well as Justin and Finley, who couldn't be missed.

The clock had just passed seven o'clock, and the whole main house was already bustling with people, standing and sitting, chatting and laughing.

The ranch seemed to have entered winter, and it was dark early, and Brandon lit the fireplace, the orange fire blocked the thick night, and the interior gradually warmed up, the heat stuck to the windows, and the thin mist made the outside world hazy and blurred.

Lu Li was still busy in the kitchen, looking at the sky outside through the light, he couldn't help but speed up the movement of his hand slightly, and he saw Ke Er standing at the entrance of the kitchen, he raised his voice and said, "You can greet everyone to take a seat one after another, the water is already boiling next to it, after this dish is cooked, I will make dumplings, and then you can start." ”

"Wait. Cole put his index finger on his lips, made a "shhhh Lu Li raised his hand to turn the fire to the minimum and leaned over, "What's wrong?"

Cole lowered his voice and said, "We prepared a cake. I want to surprise Jasmin. ”

Lu Li immediately showed a look of sudden realization, "No wonder!" Since just now, Cole and Tony and Randy have been talking to something in a low voice, and then Cole has been going in and out, not knowing what he is busy with, and now it seems that this is the answer.

Cole nodded in affirmation, "You're in charge of preparing dinner, and we're always going to have to do something." Then he looked back at Jasmin and Brandon in the crowd, the little princess was in Liu Xiaoyan's arms, Lily was sitting next to her, the two of them were talking in a low voice, Brandon looked at the little guy intently, his eyes were full of doting.

"I'll go out and light the candles now, and then Tony will turn off the lights in the room and Randy will start singing birthday songs. We need your help, can you distract everyone?" Cole said what he was here for.

Lu Li nodded clearly, with a big smile on his face, "No problem." You beckon everyone to come over and help me bring the food to the restaurant, and then I put the dumplings in the pot, and everyone will gather in the restaurant, and you can just push the cake to the restaurant. Such a surprise party is always full of anticipation, and Lu Li can't help but gear up, looking forward to seeing Brandon and Jasmin's expressions.

Kirby made an "OK" gesture and snuck out the back door.

After confirming that Cole was leaving, Lu Li raised his voice and shouted, "Jessica, you can beckon everyone to the restaurant, and then before everyone goes in, come here and serve a dish, only the last dish is missing, and we can start the meal." ”

"Finally!" Jessica stretched out and jumped up excitedly, and the others stood up and laughed.

"It's finally time to eat!" "After a long day's work today, I think I can eat the whole sheep!" "Isn't the protagonist of today's little princess? This is a party for Brandon and Jasmin, don't get the focus wrong." ”……

Everyone consciously walked to the kitchen, and under Lu Li's arrangement, they took the dishes and walked to the restaurant.

Looking at Scarlett in front of her, she was the last person standing at the door of the kitchen, Lu Li was stunned, and the words that came to her mouth couldn't help but pause for a moment, but Scarlett's gentle but tough eyes had no intention of evading it, which made Lu Li smile dumbly, "Can I trouble you to go to the refrigerator? There is beer and drinks in there." Then, wine words, you ask Tony. ”

Originally, Lu Li planned to confess to Tony, but since it was Scarlett in front of him, he would go with the flow.

The smile on Scarlett's lips bloomed brightly, and she nodded, then said, "Okay." ”

Seeing that everyone had entered the restaurant, Lu Li first opened the lid of the pot next to him, divided the dumplings into two batches and threw them down, and then put the last dish in the pot, mapo tofu, and shouted, "One more person, and one more dish." At the same time, he neatly put the pot in the sink, took another soup pot, filled it with half of the water, put it on the stove, and began to boil the water again.

It was Adam, who seemed to be very proactive, and after beating Tony and Jessica, he grabbed this opportunity.

However, Lu Li, who was busy at this time, didn't have time to communicate with Adam, but just pointed to Mapo Tofu, "Please serve it to the table, okay?"

Without looking up, Lu Li concentrated on starting to prepare the dipping sauce for the dumplings. For Americans, ketchup, yellow mustard, and mayonnaise are all dipping sauces, and even the whole world, but for Chinese, this is obviously not the case.

Adam couldn't help but be a little disappointed, he also thought that there would be at least one eye contact. Holding the plate and turning around, Adam's shoulders still drooped involuntarily, but then, he heard Lu Li's voice coming over, "Don't eat secretly." ”

A simple sentence, but with a sense of intimacy and familiarity, the corners of Adam's mouth couldn't help but rise, and his shoulders opened again, "Yes, sir!"

The first pot of dumplings was quickly cooked and put on a plate, and Lu Li walked into the restaurant with the plate, solemnly announcing, "Tonight's main course has arrived! Guys, get ready to greet ...... Dumplings!" The high voice made everyone excited, and everyone banged on the plates on the table with knives, forks and chopsticks, roaring and screaming, so lively.

Then Lu Li saw Tony blink his left eye and send a signal, Lu Li knew that the time had come, he quietly closed his jaw towards Tony, and continued, "Declare in advance, there are corn and potatoes in the pot, as well as rice, if everyone is not used to eating - I believe, it is definitely not my reason." ”

Even if there were no superfluous words and hints, but it was enough, Randy and Jessica immediately began to protest, and then Ronald also loudly followed and coaxed, "It must be you, it must be!"

Lu Li's words were not interrupted, "So, I mean, so, you definitely can't go hungry." However, I highly recommend the dumplings, which is the highlight of the day. ”

"Roar, roar", everyone began to cheer, at this moment, the lights in the restaurant suddenly turned off, and then you could hear the voice of inquiry, "What's going on?" It seems that there are really a lot of people who don't know why, Ronald and Li Huainan's voices are extremely loud, "Is there something wrong with the line?" They tried to calm everyone's emotions.

Panic? Not really. However, there was a lot of chatter, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while.

Lu Li looked left and right, looking for the direction of the light source. He hadn't had time to put the dumplings down, and now the basin was gradually starting to conduct heat, and his fingertips could feel a stream of heat, slightly hot. Lu Li didn't want to knock over the fruits of his hard work this afternoon, so if it was a surprise party, Cole's speed had better be faster.

In the dark, Lu Li looked in the direction of Brandon and Jia Siming in his memory, and could vaguely hear the sound of the two people talking, but the little princess didn't make any sound, and she still slept soundly. This made Lu Li feel a little relieved, which showed that the surprise had not been seen through and was still going according to plan.

Turning his head to look in the direction of the back door, as expected, a faint candlelight appeared in his sight, and a bright red flame burned in the darkness, reflecting Cole's hands pushing the cart, causing the small circle of night around him to slowly dissipate like a mist. This little bit of light can't help but attract the attention to the past.

Lu Li slightly moved out of the way, facing the direction of the cart, while remembering Jia Simin's direction, ready to turn around at any time, Tony and Randy's rough singing voices came from his ears, "Happy birthday to you!" Then Jessica also joined in, and the smile on the corner of Lu Li's mouth couldn't help blooming, and he sang along, "Happy birthday to you!"

Lu Li could hear that someone began to applaud and beat the rhythm, this was the first birthday of the little princess in the world, and I hope it could be the most wonderful beginning of her countless birthdays in the future. Lu Li also wanted to clap his hands, but now that he couldn't make his hand, he regretted it a little, he should have put the plate down in time just now.

After the beautiful singing sounded, Lu Li could even imagine the confused expressions on everyone's faces, the slightly slow clapping and absent-minded singing, accompanied by the warm candlelight, gradually approaching, gradually fading, no matter what the reason, everyone finally concentrated and began to join the party, singing in unison.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you......"

Lu Li saw Ke Er pushing the cake and walked over, he took a small half step back, gave up his position, and gestured to Jia Siming's direction with his chin, with a bright smile in his eyes, he seemed to be able to see Jia Siming's surprised expression. And, of course, Brandon.

But at this moment, Ke Le pushed the cart towards him, Lu Li's eyes widened, and he signaled, "Wrong." ”

Cole didn't seem to see it, the cart stopped directly in front of Lu Li, and the faint but bright candlelight illuminated Lu Li's face, "Wrong." Lu Li had to stop, leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, and said directly to Cole.

However, Cole did not respond, nor did he panic, but took half a step back unhurriedly, with a bright smile on his face, clapped his hands and joined the crowd in singing, singing loudly, "Dear Fourteen, I wish you a happy birthday!"
