Prologue 72 The So-Called 'Happiness'
Prologue xxxii
What is 'happiness'
When I took my eyes back from the 'chocolate' cake, I suddenly thought of a very good and powerful question, "By the way, just now Lux seemed to unconsciously complain 'It's amazing~'...... Yes, right? Absolutely, right? In other words, does Lux also think that Siegel can write my name and Lux is a 'magical' thing?
"Ahem, ahem......"
Of course, I am not the only one who heard Lux's unconscious complaint, as the maker of this 'chocolate' cake, Siegel naturally heard Lux's complaint, but these words are indeed his handwriting, so in Siegel's eyes, it is naturally extremely 'beautiful', so when he heard Lux's words, Siegel shook his head and retorted: "It's not that my father can't write, it's just the first time to write with chocolate...... Don't you see that these words look like dragons and phoenixes? As he said this, Siegel had a smug look on his face again, apparently quite confident in the words he had written.

Well, none of us want to go and hit Siegel anymore...... But then again, of course I think the words I write look good, but in the eyes of others, it's 'hehe'.
"So, here's the candle ......"
Siegel was smug for a moment, and seeing that no one echoed his words, Siegel reached out and took out a small box from the other side of the cake, and when he opened it, he took out five pink bunched candles. After handing the candle to Lux, Siegel said, "Today is Lux's fifth birthday, well, although there are fewer people (Speaking of which, Siegel glanced around), it seems a little less lively, but my father believes that you won't mind this, after all, you have always liked a quiet atmosphere......" Speaking of this, Siegel sighed faintly, I don't know why he sighed.
"Come, put the candle on."
"Hmm~"
Lux reached out and took the candle from Siegel with both hands, and looked at Siegel with a little confusion. Lux didn't hear Siegel's sigh, but Siegel's unfinished words were noticed by Lux, but seeing that Siegel didn't say anything more, Lux naturally didn't ask more. Lux turned around and gave me two of the five candles in her hand, and with a sweet smile on her pretty face, she said to me softly, "Today is also Kiki's birthday, but since we are both five years old, we can only give Kiki two candles......
Listening to Lux's crisp and pleasant words, looking at the deep affection flashing in Lux's dark blue eyes, I couldn't help but return an equally affectionate look in my heart, and then reached out to take the candle handed by Lux.
"Come on, Kiki, help them put the candle on the cake."
A sweet smile appeared on Lux's delicate little face like a Barbie doll, and there was a deep expectation in her eyes when she looked at me. I didn't live up to Lux's expectations, and after nodding heavily, I smiled at each other, and then raised my hand at the same time and stuck the candle in my hand into the cake. Almost at the same time, two candles were inserted into the cake at the same time.
One candle was inserted in Lux's name, and the other candle was inserted in my name, and the originator was just the opposite of the name, and Lux and I immediately looked at each other and smiled, and a sense of incomparable understanding arose.
Siegel, Pacleet and others, who have been paying attention to us, couldn't help but be a little taken aback when they saw us so tacitly, and Renoah couldn't help but admire: "You two really feel like you were born to be a couple...... Hmm~ In the colloquial saying of the Republic of East Asia, it should be a match made in heaven. Neither Renoa's admiration made Luxes and Rux blush, but neither of us refuted Renoa's words, because we thought so too.
After that, after the candle was completely inserted, Siegel found a lighter and handed it to me, and then said to me in an apologetic tone: "Qi, I'm sorry, I forgot that you are still there, so I should give a double share of the candle is ......" Siegel had not finished speaking, Lux had already laughed "po......of", only to see her smiling coquettishly, and at the same time said angrily: "Isn't that person and Kiki ten years old?" Poof~hee-hee~"
"Uh......"
Siegel's interruption made Siegel look helpless, in fact, Siegel's words were just a foreshadowing for the next words, but before Siegel could say anything more, Luxes continued: "And people believe that Kiki will not mind his father's rudeness, right?" Kiki. With that, Lux turned her head to look at me, her eyes showing great trust.
"Of course, I don't mind my father's behavior, and now my father has made up for his mistake just now, hasn't he made up for his mistake just now?"
Of course I wouldn't mind, although I did feel a little chilly before...... But Lux's actions had completely warmed my soul and rejuvenated me - simply resurrected in full blood - and Siegel was naturally making up for his mistake by handing me the lighter later. Since I took the lighter, it naturally means that I don't mind Siegel's behavior.
"Hmm...... Well! β
When Siegel saw me say this, he naturally nodded heavily, indicating that he knew.
"I'll keep an eye on it later, but for now, please light the candle first, it's a little surprise, for you two."
I don't know if Siegel is particularly fond of selling guanzi, from the birthday cake to the current candles, it has been sold for two or three guanzi. However, I didn't pay attention to these details, but after nodding obediently, I stood up and leaned in front of the cake, and with a crisp "pop", a fire candle appeared on the lighter, and the orange light reflected the coffee-colored 'chocolate' cake, giving it a different style.
The orange candle lit the candle that Lux had planted in 'love', and when a small flame rose from the candle, we were surprised to find that it was actually pink! However, this is not the end, when the candle burns for about five or six seconds, the flame that gradually grows suddenly makes a small "bang~" sound, from the original flame quickly becomes larger, larger, and larger again, until its shape becomes a big heart!
Siegel once again imitated the crisp sound of "Dangdang ......" in a deep voice, as if he was giving a BGM to the pink heart-shaped candle flame, and then in our surprised gaze, Siegel's golden beard curled up again, and there was an exaggerated laugh from his mouth: "Hahaha...... What do you think? Isn't it a surprise to you that your father asked someone to make a special birthday candle? Do you feel like you're sparkling? β
Hearing Siegel's enthusiastic inquiry, Lux and I were speechless for a while.
Anyway, Siegel was really ingenious for Lux's birthday, not to mention the double heart-shaped birthday cake made entirely of chocolate, just to say that the candle in front of me was in the shape of a heart and emitted a pink glow, which allowed me and Lux to experience Siegel's good intentions. I don't know where Siegel 'made' these candles, but Lux and I have a real sense of what a 'surprise' is and what a 'sight' is (it's really bright).
"Uh-huh...... Father's good intentions have been received, especially these candles......"
Lux looked at the candles I lit one by one, at the five heart-shaped candles around the cake, and at the big words 'Chi Klein', 'love', and 'Lux Klein' shining in the pink light, and a deep sense of happiness arose. This happiness came so suddenly, that even Lux couldn't bear it, so that her next words seemed choked: "Thank you, thank you, father, this birthday, people, people...... Very satisfied! As if to vent the extremely excited emotions in his heart, after speaking, Lux also leaned over to Siegel and "poofed" on the side of Siegel's face.
But in the next second, Lux covered her little face with her hand, and her pretty face rose with a thick resentful coquettishness: "Father's beard is scumbag, and it makes people feel so uncomfortable......"
"Hahaha......"
Siegel, who has not been kissed by Lux for a long time, is undoubtedly very excited and happy, which can be seen from the shaking of Siegel's two-fold mustache and the appearance of his mouth not closing together. Siegel was even happier when he heard the muttering sound that followed Lux, and he let out a loud laugh while stroking the beard on his chin with his hand, and the look of looking left and right made me, Aslan, and others feel amused.
But while I was laughing, a warm and happy feeling also rippled in my heart.
Actually, I know that Siegel doesn't have a lot of time to prepare these things, after all, he is a busy man, and it is very rare to be able to find time to make his own birthday cake for Lux. And when I appeared, Siegel took great pains to find someone to make these five candles in an afternoon, in just five or six hours, which is enough to prove that Siegel recognizes and values meβthe reason why I say that there are only five of these candles is because I just glanced at the box containing the candles when I was lighting the candles, and the inside was of course empty.
On top of that, Siegel didn't know how much time it took to explain my relationship with Lux. This hard work deeply touched me, who has the feelings of a normal person, and also made me truly experience the feeling of 'home'.
If in my previous life, the 'home' of the orphanage gave me a warm feeling, then in this life, the 'home' of Klein gave me not only warmth, but also happiness!
