The silly girl became a wealthy wife

"Qian Lan, as in 'The sound of the waves is so strong, who knows its shape?'! Lan, as in 'The world is at peace!'" At this moment, Lucien Lu fully displayed his gentlemanly demeanor and good temper.

"Oh, I see!" Sophia Gu nodded, her clear eyes finally gleaming with a bright, star-like light.

As everyone marveled at her final enlightenment, she smiled broadly, "Hmm, the Five Elements are lacking water!"

Lucien Lu simply pursed his thin lips, the corners of his lips curling upward in a sly smile that gave Sophia Gu goosebumps.

After that, Sophia Gu had nothing to do. Old Man Gu and Lucien Lu chatted with each other briskly. It was clear that the old man was very fond of this future son-in-law and was happy to marry his beloved granddaughter, Vivian, to him.

And the unsentimental Little Dragon Girl, the Overlord Flower, was unusually attentive to him, capable yet delicate, occasionally revealing a hint of a little girl's charm, which made the Ninth Girl, accustomed to Vivian's decisive and domineering aura, shiver as if struck by lightning.

It turns out that the second sister can also be coquettish. This beast in disguise still has considerable charm.

Sophia Gu's exit was quiet, with a simple, "I'm leaving first."

Old Man Gu gave her an imperceptible nod, and she left without a sound.

Back in her room, she slumped down into the covers, hiding her face. It wasn't until Derek Gu came up with a cake and pulled the covers back that she revealed her bright eyes and a radiant smile.

She released her grip on the soft blanket, hugged his arm, and nuzzled him coquettishly, her voice soft and sweet, "My favorite chocolate cake!"

Derek Gu indulged her coquettishly and slowly opened the cake box.

The cake was exquisitely crafted, delicately and delicately, its dark, densely packed texture like fine steel wire. It looked messy, like a bird's nest, but in reality, it was as delicate as a work of art. A slight ridge formed a circular arc, dotted with a few fresh fruits. Two fan-shaped slices of white chocolate, each sized, coated with black thread, intersected with a coconut and almond biscuit.

Sophia Gu unceremoniously stuffed the almond biscuit into her mouth, the sweet sap flowing down her throat. She narrowed her eyes in happiness and gave Derek Gu a sweet, goofy smile, her eyes as bright as tea, curved and gleaming with a faint smile.

Derek Gu placed a candle on the cake and lit it. The slender flame flickered softly. Music began to play. The two smiled at each other, and Sophia Gu hummed softly, "Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me!"

The second time, they tacitly changed to "Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you..."

After singing the birthday song, Sophia Gu couldn't wait to make a wish.

Her long lashes gently covered her bright eyes, her expression sincere and earnest. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest, silently repeating her wish three times before opening her eyes. She quickly glanced at Derek Gu and gently blew out the candle.

Sophia Gu ate all ten words on the cake: "Happy Birthday, Sophia Gu, Derek Gu."

Because of her voracious appetite, when they were little, he jokingly called her stomach a bottomless pit, never enough to fill.

Sophia Gu laughed and scoffed at him, "If it ever fills up, it means I'm dead!"

They were still little then, and Derek Gu nervously held her hand. Even at such a young age, his words carried a certain theatrical grandeur: "Then it'll never fill up. Let's eat all the delicious food in the world together!"

Because of her voracious appetite and her limited intelligence, her older sisters often called her a "pig"—a pig that ate but never gained weight.

Sophia Gu was frail and sickly as a child. No matter what she ate, she remained as thin as a skeleton. Even whole milk powder didn't help.

She'd seen pigs on TV and read descriptions of them in books, and she took it as a compliment, so she put on a broad smile and said innocently to the sisters who had mocked her, "Thank you!" O(∩_∩)O

Derek Gu lay on the large, soft bed, quietly gazing at Sophia Gu as she sat in front of the rustic wooden dressing mirror, removing her makeup.

Sophia Gu's makeup was actually very light, easily removed with a light makeup cleanser, but eye makeup still required a special makeup remover.

When Sophia Gu emerged from the bathroom after washing her face and gently patted the water off her face, he stood up, washed his hands, poured some lavender essential oil into his palms, and gently massaged her temples and smooth forehead with moderate pressure.

His fingers were long, their joints distinct, and his nails were neatly trimmed, level with the tender flesh of his fingertips. The soothing music hummed softly, synchronizing with Derek Gu's movements, lulling her into a sleepy trance like a lover's caress.

Sophia Gu reclined in a luxurious, European-style soft chair, eyes closed. Lavender essential oil itself had soothing properties, and as her body relaxed, her eyelids felt heavy, almost unable to open. A sense of tranquility and peace filled her.

For Sophia Gu, the greatest happiness in life was to eat well and sleep soundly, to sleep until she woke naturally, unburdened by any burden.

She was selfish and self-willed. Since she wanted to sleep, she closed her eyes without hesitation and fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing her sleep, Derek Gu let a doting smile play on his lips, and his movements became gentler, like a cloud drifting leisurely in the sky.

He gently removed her robe and gently applied some skincare lotion to her fair, smooth skin, applying it meticulously from forehead to toes.

Seeing her sleep soundly, Derek Gu pursed his lips and chuckled softly. After adjusting her robe, he gently lifted her up and laid her gently on the soft bed. He leaned over to whisper in her ear, his lips, as red as tangerines, moving, "Sister, happy birthday!"
