Chapter 804: Chapter 790 Birthday Banquet

After sitting for a while, Yan Mo left to see his grandfather and chatted with him.

The next day was Xia Yue and Xia Xi’s birthday.

Xia Yu personally delivered longevity noodles to them according to their usual waking up time.

"Big brother, you made this, right?" Xia Yue took a bite and knew immediately, smiling at him with squinted eyes.

"Hmm, my cooking skills haven’t regressed, have they?" Xia Yu responded with a nod and a smile.

"Not at all, it’s still so delicious, thank you, big brother." Xia Yue shook her head with a smile and took another big bite.

"That’s good. Here’s your dress, wear it tonight to attend the banquet. This is the birthday party I’ve prepared for you and Xixi," Xia Yu said, pointing to the gift box beside her. He had someone design a gown for each of them.

"So formal? It’s not even our coming-of-age celebration," Xia Yue looked at him puzzledly as it seemed a bit too grand. Other than the birthdays when they came of age, which were quite grand, the subsequent ones had been much more low-key, usually just receiving a present from the elders and then gathering casually with peers.

"This is your first birthday celebrating together with Xixi, so I wanted to make it grand. We were supposed to hold it back in Kyoto at the Mansion, but Xixi didn’t want a big celebration, and you also dislike gatherings with strangers, so we’re having a small celebration here," Xia Yu explained with a smile.

"Oh, I see," Xia Yue said as she instantly understood. This was Xia Xi’s first birthday since returning to the Xia Family. By all accounts, there ought to have been a massive party at the old Mansion in Kyoto. Since Xia Xi didn’t want that and to prevent her from feeling unbalanced, they had decided not to go through with it and instead have a small event here. That way, both of them could be the stars without worrying about any discomfort.

"Alright, hurry up and eat your noodles before they get cold. Once you finish, I’ll take the bowls and chopsticks back. You should try on the dress to see if it fits properly. If not, Wei Se will help you alter it. I’ve already asked her, and she’s agreed," Xia Yu said.

"Okay," Xia Yue nodded and focused on eating her noodles without thinking too much about anything else.

After finishing, Xia Yu cleared away the bowls and chopsticks.

Taking the gift box, Xia Yue went back to her room to try on the dress. She found it fit perfectly, so she changed out of it and set it aside for the evening.

She changed back into her previous clothes and then left the house.

The Resort Area’s staff were aware of the birthday banquet, and so they knew about Xia Yue and Xia Xi’s birthday. Along the way, those who saw Xia Yue greeted her with a happy birthday and a smile.

Xia Yue felt a bit embarrassed at first, but after hearing it several times, she no longer felt awkward and responded with a gracious smile and a thank you.

"Happy birthday," Xia Xi met her and said with a smile.

"Happy birthday," Xia Yue also replied with a smile.

"Have you tried on the dress big brother gave you?" Xia Xi asked with a smile.

"I have, it’s just perfect. What about you?" Xia Yue nodded and asked in return.

"It’s good for me too, no need to bother Wei Se," Xia Xi said.

"Where are Mo Si and your martial siblings? How come you’re the only one here?" Xia Yue asked curiously. Mo Si usually followed her closely, so why was he absent today?

"They said they’re setting up the banquet. Those who weren’t busy today all went to help, wanting to give us a surprise," Xia Xi explained.

"Oh, no wonder they wanted me to go to the reception today. You were also called to help at the reception?" Xia Yue inquired.

"Yes, I’m heading over to the Four Seasons Hotel side of things," Xia Xi nodded.

"I’m off to the Magic Castle, sheesh, we’re supposed to be the guests of honor, and we still have to work," Xia Yue casually complained.

" Think about the surprise tonight, and you won’t feel so down," Xia Xi consoled her.

"Right, let’s hurry up; wouldn’t want them to wait anxiously," Xia Yue nodded.

"Okay."

Together, they rushed off to their respective destinations, taking over the tasks from Ziluo and Sena.

"Do a good job," Ziluo said to Xia Xi after they finished the handover, and then she left.

Xia Xi and Xia Yue helped at the front desk, while others were busy decorating the largest garden of the Mansion.

Ao Mi was in charge of the meals for today’s Resort Area, and Peng Zu was brought in to help make the birthday cake and such.

Yan Mo didn’t have other matters to tend to today either, so he helped out as well.

The Resort Area closed by 8 PM, and the tourists returned to their rooms to rest, with a few occasionally strolling around the Resort Area.

At eight o’clock, Xia Yu asked Xia Yue and Xia Xi to go change their clothes, while Zhao Yun and Old Lady Mu helped them do their hairstyles.

Once the site was set up, and everyone had arrived, they all waited for the guests of honor to start the banquet.

Xia Yu led Xia Xi and Xia Yue to the center of the decorated stage.

"Welcome, everyone, to the birthday party of my two sisters, Xia Xi and Xia Yue," Xia Yu stood between them, smiling and addressing the crowd.

"Happy birthday!" As the words were spoken, fireworks burst in the sky.

Everyone else also yelled out happy birthday to them.

Following that, Ao Mi and Peng Zu wheeled over a massive tower of cake.

"Happy birthday, go blow out the candles and make a wish," Ao Mi and Peng Zu said to them with a smile.

Looking at a cake taller than themselves.

"How are we supposed to blow these out?" Xia Yue blinked and asked.

"Fly up, of course. You two can fly, can’t you?" Ao Mi said with a laugh.

Xia Xi and Xia Yue: "..."

The two exchanged glances, then held hands and used Spiritual Power to fly up, closed their eyes to make a wish, and then blew out the candles together.

"Here, take this knife and cut the cake," Peng Zu used Spiritual Power to lift a knife and float it in front of them.

Xia Yue took it back and then, together with Xia Xi, made a cut in the cake.

"Now that the cake is cut, everyone can start eating," Ao Mi said with a laugh.

"Wow!" The others cheered excitedly.

Xia Yue and Xia Xi handed the first piece of cake they cut to Xia Yu.

"Big brother, thank you," Xia Yue and Xia Xi approached him and said with a smile. He really had always taken care of their feelings and balanced the relationship between them, truly without bias and fairness.

"No need to be so formal; this is what I should do," Xia Yu took the cake and said to them with a smile.
