Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 479 The Dragon King's Bride

I don't know when cakes started to become decorations whose existence is far more important than their actual significance. Chefs no longer think about how to make cakes delicious, but how to make them look good and how high they can be.

Of course, here we are referring to special cakes for banquets.

At various banquets, wherever there is a need, you will always see these decorative cakes. It seems that the more gorgeous, taller and bigger the cake is, the more proud the host of the banquet will feel.

However, compared to a birthday cake, isn't this cake a bit too big? It seems to be more suitable for a more grand banquet with more people attending.

"Isn't this a waste?" Renata pointed out the problem.

There were only two of them in the main hall, and it was obvious that Lu Mingfei did not intend to let others participate in the upcoming banquet.

Lu Mingfei came down from the ladder, stood beside Renata, looked at his masterpiece, and fell into deep thought. He had originally wanted to prepare a banquet for Renata as compensation for ignoring her for half a day.

To Renata, ordinary gifts seemed meaningless. Even if you actually bought a star for her, she would probably remain indifferent.

So he chose the simplest, but in a sense not so simple, way to make a cake. Don't ask him why he can make a cake. Some things he will suddenly learn when he needs them.

Just like he and Su Enxi suddenly knew how to play cards last night... He lied to Su Enxi last night and he actually knew how to play cards.

As expected, these were all the work of the little witch.

The cake had nine layers in total, and the layers stacked up like a Christmas tree, decorated with flowers, which was quite appropriate. Although it was flashy, it was really beautiful, and Lu Mingfei was reluctant to cut it open later.

He was a little impressed with himself. You know, such a large cake would require a professional pastry chef in the kitchen to work for several days to make.

"Although it's a little big, it doesn't matter. I'll ask the butler to distribute it to other people in the manor later." Lu Mingfei said, turning his head to look at Renata and smiled slightly, "How is it, do you like it?"

"I like it." Renata nodded slightly.

Although you can't tell from the outside, probably no girl would hate a cake decorated with flowers, and she is the same.

"Didn't Mai and Susu come back together?" Lu Mingfei looked outside the main hall and didn't see the other two girls. To cut the cake, you have to wait until everyone is together.

Renata said softly, "They stayed in town and probably won't come back tonight. Don't worry, they have already celebrated for me."

Mai Jude, who wanted to leave the official residence with a certain light bulb, felt helpless. She wanted to disappear with the certain light bulb for a night, and wait until the next morning to wish Renata, who would no longer be able to be called a girl, a day late a happy birthday when she returned.

Unfortunately, someone disrupted her plan and suddenly ran away in the middle of it. Helplessly, she had to celebrate for Sanwuniu in advance.

Mai Jude had already given Renata her birthday present. The kimono, which the girl would probably only wear once in her life, was her birthday present.

Su Enxi waved her hand and booked the largest snack street and hot spring hotel in the town. Everyone could be exempted from all expenses for the day as long as they shouted "Happy Birthday, Miss Renata!"

Then when night fell, they hurried to get her back, as if they were afraid that she would miss something if she came back late.

"Really? That's fine." Lu Mingfei also knew that Renata liked quietness, so he only kept a few close people to celebrate for her. However, Jiude Mai specially left them some time alone together, and he didn't want to let her down.

"Let's start." Lu Mingfei snapped his fingers, and a layer of candles surrounding the cake suddenly lit up.

He winked at Renata: "Do you want me to sing the birthday song first?"

"No." Renata refused decisively, "I've heard enough in the town down the mountain."

It was her best friend's birthday, and Su Enxi was allowed to drink a little. She was drunk and started singing "Happy Birthday" for a long time above the hot spring town. If Su Enxi hadn't insisted on pulling Renata to listen to the whole song, she might have come back earlier than now.

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but smile, and suddenly he wanted to see Renata's reaction when so many people sang birthday song to her. That would probably be very exciting.

In the moment he was stunned, Renata closed her eyes, made a perfunctory wish, and blew out the candles.

“…I haven’t even had the time to turn off the lights yet.” Lu Mingfei really wanted to ask, are all “three-no” girls like this?

When she celebrated Chu Yuwei's birthday, she also went through the process quickly in this way, for fear of wasting any time on it.

"Since it's just us, let's keep it simple." Renata said softly, picking up the knife for cutting the cake on the tray.

Then she paused, handed the knife to Lu Mingfei, and reached out to untie the gauze flower ornament on her head. The hazy gauze was untied, revealing a hat with a large brim that hid all the hair accessories.

The transparent gauze was too inappropriate to be used as a hat, but thanks to it, Renata's platinum hair and heavy hair accessories could be seen clearly.

Before she left, her hair was still loose and she didn't have that many hair accessories. When she was in town, Jude Mai tied her hair up and put on hair accessories, and told her not to untie it until she met someone.

Lu Mingfei recognized this; it was called a white cotton hat, and it was a ceremonial hat that Japanese girls wore when they got married.

He was suddenly stunned. The kimono with furisode was so gorgeous and solemn that it didn't look like an everyday dress, but rather like a formal dress. And the white cotton hat... At this moment, Renata looked like a bride waiting to get married.

However, the bride looked a little sloppy. For example, the white cotton hat made of gauze looked good, but it was a little inappropriate. The white cotton hat was mostly matched with white wedding gowns...

But as Jude Mai said, Renata is a foreign girl and doesn't need to follow these rules. She only needs to dress beautifully on Christmas and her birthday.

Renata is really beautiful at this moment.

Lu Mingfei suddenly felt a little regretful. In order to make it easier to move around when making the cake, he took off the solemn dresses that Jiude Mai had prepared for her.

"Okay." Renata seemed unaware of what the clothes meant, nor did she care what Lu Mingfei was wearing at the moment.

She reached out and held the table knife, and of course, she also held Lu Mingfei's hand: "Together."

Lu Mingfei responded with a slight smile: "Yes, together."

He clasped his hands together and cut the cake in front of him.

Renata cut the cake on the plate with a fork, put it in her mouth and chewed it gently, then she realized that someone next to her had been looking at her. "What's wrong?" she asked curiously.

Lu Mingfei smiled slightly, lowered his head and kissed the corner of her mouth, wiping off the cream stuck there. Renata was stunned for a moment. Although this kind of intimate behavior was not the first time, this time she was inexplicably at a loss.

She looked at Lu Mingfei's face carefully. His eyes, hidden behind the white veil, looked like the misty surface of water and seemed to be searching for something.

Renata suddenly pulled Lu Mingfei and motioned him to lower his head. He did so, and she stood on tiptoe, kissed the other's lips with her soft lips, and licked off the almost invisible cream.

Feeling that this position was a bit awkward, Lu Mingfei simply picked her up and continued to gently bite her sweet lips.

The iceberg-like girl responded awkwardly at first, then suddenly broke free and panted softly, "Let's go back to the room first..."

Lu Mingfei still hugged her, but this time he didn't do it. He smiled slightly and said to Renata: "Before going back, let's go to a place first. Although this birthday cake is prepared for you, it is not a gift prepared by me."

……

The main hall of the Kuroishi Residence is a building shaped like a castle tower. Such buildings are usually located in the center of a city and are where the most distinguished people in a city live. The shogun during the shogunate period was more distinguished than the emperor, so his residence must also have such a distinguished building.

Lu Mingfei carried Renata to the corridor outside the top floor of the castle tower. He put the girl down and looked up at the sky which was already covered with dark clouds.

Although today's weather is not as clear as yesterday, the sun that occasionally peeks out during the day still makes the tourists in the town at the foot of the mountain exclaim that this trip is well worth it.

But at this time, the sky was covered by dense dark clouds, and the cold began to invade from the east, making the happy people in the town realize belatedly that it was already winter.

"This weather is so nasty." Lu Mingfei said softly, "Today is a day worth remembering. We shouldn't let this kind of weather ruin our mood."

He looked down at Renata who was looking at him silently, and smiled slightly: "Close your eyes. This gift will only be meaningful if you see it the moment you open your eyes."

I don't know what he is preparing in secret. Renata withdrew her gaze and closed her eyes silently. Lu Mingfei felt that this was not safe, so he walked behind her and covered her eyes with his hand.

Then he raised his head and smiled gently towards the dark sky: "Show me the flowers..."

Fireworks blooming in the sky can be flowers, and snowflakes slowly falling and blooming can also be flowers. So the question is, are the stars that quietly bloom in the night sky and emit the light of flowers considered flowers?
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether it is or not. As long as Lu Mingfei thinks it is, then it must be.

Lu Mingfei released his hands that were covering Renata's eyes with satisfaction. The latter opened her eyes at this time and was stunned.

The dark night sky cleared up, and the Milky Way hidden behind the dark clouds emitted brilliant light. The stars were like star flowers, quietly blooming in the sky, filling the entire sky.

This extremely beautiful scene left Renata speechless. All the words of praise she could think of were not enough to describe the bouquet of flowers that Lu Mingfei gave them.

The stars in the sky were reflected in Renata's blue eyes, as if they contained the entire Milky Way. She suddenly smiled, and a small Arctic flower that was no less beautiful than the Star Flower quietly bloomed on the castle tower.

Lu Mingfei glanced sideways and found that this scene was also extremely beautiful.

The solemn bride's kimono was spread on the floor of the corridor, and the transparent white cotton hat was thrown aside. Renata lay on the kimono decorated with pink flowers, and her fair skin was whiter and smoother than cream under the starlight.

Lu Mingfei held Renata's hand, and couldn't let go of the skin that seemed to have body fragrance. He sniffed it several times and licked it a few times before letting go.

He looked down at Renata who was silently looking at him. Her petite body was emitting warmth, which was completely opposite to her usual cold face. She was not as fiery as Jiude Mai, nor as shy as Su Enxi. At this moment, Renata was silently looking at him, waiting to bear everything from him.

Lu Mingfei looked into her eyes and found that in those blue eyes, apart from the stars in the sky, there was only him. He knew that the girl under him was telling him in this way that he should be prepared to accept everything she saw in his eyes.

"It's so beautiful." Lu Mingfei praised sincerely.

Renata closed her eyes slightly, her snow-white body trembled slightly, and her breathing became a little disordered. She exhaled slowly and replied softly, "It is very beautiful."

A bright red flower dripped onto the kimono covered with flowers below, bright and beautiful, destined to be treasured by the owner lying on it for a lifetime...

Feeling the warmth on her forehead, she waited for a while until the people around her got up and left. Then Renata moved her eyes slightly and opened them.

It took her some time to adjust to the darkness in the room. She looked sideways and saw that the remaining warmth in the quilt was slowly dissipating. She knew that someone was going to Tokyo, a hundred miles away, before Christmas Eve was over.

She looked at the time. It was around ten o'clock in the evening. If she went down the mountain now, she could still catch the hot spring.

……

"It's so beautiful." Mai Jude sighed as she soaked in the hot spring water and looked up at the sky. But as long as she looked down, she would find that the beautiful body in the water was actually no worse than the stars in the sky.

"It's a perfect gift, I like it very much." She praised sincerely, and was only happy for the three-no girl. After discovering this, she praised herself again, and she was indeed a generous woman.

"So what if it's beautiful? It's a gift for someone else." Su Enxi complained. The man who called her "Little Sweetie" yesterday had been missing for a long time. No wonder she was so resentful.

Jiude Mai chuckled: "I'll correct you, this is a gift for us."

Star flowers can also be seen in this town. Who else could it be given to if not them?

The sliding door of the hot spring room was suddenly opened. They couldn't go back to the Kuroishi Mansion on the mountain for the time being. The entire hot spring hotel was booked by Jude Mai and the others. No one should have set foot here at this moment.

The person who came was Renata. She untied the bath towel and soaked in the hot water.

Jiude Mai looked at her body, which was no longer that of a girl but more charming, and suddenly smiled: "Leaving?"

"Let's go." Renata nodded slightly.

"Ha! Men." Su Enxi, who was lying on the edge of the hot spring and drinking sake, sneered.

Renata looked up at the star flowers that had not yet faded from the sky and said softly, "He has never been someone that anyone can monopolize, not even us."
