The little boy took the little girl's hand.

The little girl stopped in her tracks suddenly. She took out the lollipop and held it out to him. "Have some too."

"I don't want any." The little boy shook his head.

"You want to! Just eat it!" The little girl pouted and pushed it towards his mouth.

The little boy had no choice and he licked it. "Okay, I'm done. The rest is for you."

"No way, we're going to share this," the little girl said, smiling.

The little children shared the same lollipop as they walked away together.

Mu Xiaoxiao cupped her chin with her hand, smiling faintly as she looked at them walk away.

"What are you looking at?" Yin Shaojie returned, carrying something. Seeing how she was so focused on something else, he waved a hand in front of her eyes.

Mu Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and hit him suddenly.

Yin Shaojie was puzzled. "Why did you hit me?"

Mu Xiaoxiao took her food and snickered. "I remembered now that you kept snatching my candy to eat when we were kids. You're despicable!"

Yin Shaojie didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. "Why are you bringing up what happened when we were kids? Do you not remember how many candies I gave you in order to cajole you?"

"You, cajoling me? Do you not remember who made me cry before coming to cajole me?" Mu Xiaoxiao glared at him.

Yin Shaojie raised his hands in surrender. "Okay. That was me. I'm guilty as charged, okay? Hurry up and eat. We can discuss where to go in the meantime."

"What do you mean 'where to go'?" Mu Xiaoxiao stole a piece of prawn from his bowl.

Yin Shaojie looked at her mysteriously. Placing his chopsticks down, he took out his phone and showed it to her. "I booked flights to many different places. We'll go wherever you want to go."

"Aren't we returning to China?" Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled.

"Who said that we had to? It's okay even if we don't do that. I was only lying to them. There are a lot of airlines operating tonight and you can choose from more than ten countries to go to." Yin Shaojie explained his plans. "Let's go to a random country for fun for two to three days before flying back to America. Your dad will be home after that and then we can celebrate your birthday!"

Mu Xiaoxiao was shocked. "Celebrate my birthday in America? But why?"

Yin Shaojie looked into her eyes and said gently, "I know you'd rather spend your birthday with your dad, right? We'll celebrate it in America. When it comes, I'll call my parents and Qiqing and the rest to come too. It'll be the same. You have many friends here too and you can invite them all and we'll hold a big birthday party. What do you say?"

Her relatives in America might want to celebrate her birthday as well, and it would thus be more convenient to hold it in America.

Mu Xiaoxiao teared up at his words.

"You've arranged everything for me?"

She didn't expect him to be so considerate and thoughtful.

Indeed, she had really wanted to spend her birthday with her family.

However…

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled at him, her eyes sparkling. "I want to spend this year's birthday in China. So, let's go back to China!"

"What about your dad?" Yin Shaojie asked.

"Him? He has to return to China of course! Papa has been saying that he wants to return to City A and take a look around, but he said that he was too busy with the company to leave the last time I asked him to return with me. Since we have the opportunity to celebrate my birthday this time, he will take some time off no matter how busy he is." Mu Xiaoxiao smiled.
