Qin Shaoheng knew that at that time, she was betting that he was calm enough and able to see the overall situation, and would not stick to those noble ways.
She did make the right bet. He really had no reason to refuse the interest exchange between them.
How can people who have walked through the mud refuse the exchange of benefits between each other?
Talk to him about feelings and he will just laugh.
Talk to him about the benefits, and he will be willing to hear the details.
Qin Shaoheng does not trust others easily, especially those who try to play emotional cards with him.
But Charlotte, who didn't play by the rules, repeatedly broke his usual standards for dealing with others.
She might really be an exception to him.
The initial relationship of interest has now changed.
The sense of trust that emerged between them was a psychological relationship that only people who are close can have.
Qin Shaoheng never thought that a girl so many years younger than him would be so compatible with him.
No, this is no longer a match of eyes, but a match of heart.
Now, Charlotte, who was quite in line with his wishes, prepared a birthday cake for him with such care. It was hard not to touch his heart.
However, Qin Shaoheng didn't show any signs of it on his face, he just seemed to be confused: "This is a bit difficult to handle."
Charlotte: Are you dissatisfied to this extent? Do you want to exchange cake directly?
She looked at the cake in her hand again and felt that it wasn't too bad, it even looked pretty good.
As for the taste, Charlotte is also very confident that it will not be bad.
Qin Shaoheng watched these little movements of hers silently, including the doubts and confusion in her eyes.
The joke in his heart became even more intense, and his eyes were filled with laughter again.
Finally, he cleared his throat and said seriously: "It would be a pity to eat such a beautiful cake."
Charlotte: "..." He half-speaks, he is a drama queen.
When Qin Shaoheng saw her looking at him without saying a word, he smiled and reiterated: "It's the truth. Thank you for the cake. I like it very much."
After a pause, he added: "And that sumptuous dinner, thank you for your hard work."
Although some of the dishes were later prepared by the family chef, Charlotte was also responsible for the preliminary preparations.
He could see all the thoughts she put into her.
"You're welcome." Charlotte said with a normal expression, "I said, this is to thank you for your guidance during this time."
After a pause, Charlotte added: "This is just a slight expression of gratitude. I will repay you slowly after graduation."
An outstanding mecha master can only be found but not sought.
With his identity and status, he could teach her, a little-known person, without any prejudice. Of course, Charlotte would not send her away with just a meal.
She expressed her gratitude to him so solemnly so many times that it was difficult for Qin Shaoheng not to take it seriously.
He knew that with her personality, she would not be boastful, let alone that she had said she wanted to repay him more than once.
She will definitely not deal with this repayment perfunctorily.
Qin Shaoheng couldn't help but smile and said: "Just do whatever you want."
As she said, there will be plenty of opportunities to repay her favor slowly in the future.
The two of them walked all the way to the restaurant, occasionally communicating along the way, and the atmosphere between them was very natural.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the birthday noodles and birthday cake were brought to the table, and Charlotte took the initiative to help everyone share the noodles.
After eating the birthday noodles, it’s time to eat the birthday cake.
Plug the birthday candles in, then light the candles and turn off the lights.
In an instant, the entire restaurant became pitch black, with only the scattered candlelight on the dining table flickering in the darkness.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became a little quiet.
But soon, Qin Shaoyang sang "Birthday Song".
He has a lively personality, and now he sings very contagiously.
Although Mr. Qin is old, he sang "Happy Birthday" to his grandson with great energy.
Butler Lin and several other servants were beside him, and they all began to sing along with their master.
Suddenly, the quiet restaurant became lively again because of everyone's singing.
Qin Shaoheng's eyes were filled with smiles. This year's birthday was very different from usual.
If he had prepared it himself, he would never have thought about these details. It would probably just be a casual meal.
The family has not been so lively for a long time, but the addition of Charlotte brings a completely different birthday experience.
It can be said that many of Shaoyang's current changes have been subtly influenced by those around her.
Qin Shaoheng looked at Xia Luo unconsciously, but saw something unexpected.
Everyone present was singing "Birthday Song" to him to send birthday wishes.
But she was the only one who remained silent and never spoke.
In fact, for Charlotte, she was also a little hesitant.
It's not that she doesn't want to hum a few lines, it's just that the objective situation doesn't allow it.
Although she has a strong learning ability and can learn anything quickly, she can only learn singing.
It's so unbelievable that such a simple thing has become her weak point.
On Qin Shaoyang's birthday before, she sang "Happy Birthday" to him at his request, but his response was very bad at that time.
Charlotte still remembered that he hesitantly gave her advice and asked her not to sing outside in the future.
If this were Miss Xia before the end of the world, he would definitely be pissed to death.
At that time, Charlotte was a well-known model of aristocratic women in Kyoto, striving for perfection in everything she did.
At that time, she couldn't sing well, and she still didn't believe in evil, so she practiced hard, but the result was still no different.
"No one is perfect" is absolutely correct. There is probably no omniscient and omnipotent person in this world.
Charlotte knew that she had no talent in singing, so it was not easy to sing casually at this time.
With such a good atmosphere, it would be really... embarrassing if her singing scared others.
It's just that while everyone was singing, she didn't speak, which seemed a bit rude.
Finally, after much thought, she decided to remain silent.
Anyway, there were so many people singing, and the candlelight was dim, so if she was missed, no one else would notice.
Xia Luo thought so, but he didn't expect that Qin Shaoheng quietly noticed her abnormality.
However, he didn't say anything.
The song "Birthday Song" was quickly finished. At the dining table, Qin Shaoyang urged again: "Brother, hurry up and make a birthday wish!"
At this age, he still has to make birthday wishes like young people. Such a strong sense of ritual makes Qin Shaoheng a little uncomfortable.
However, he did not show it on his face and did not refute his brother's kindness.
With a slight smile on his face, he made a birthday wish by candlelight.
"Okay, let's cut the cake." After making his wish, Qin Shaoheng said.
Butler Lin had already arranged for a servant to wait nearby. Almost as soon as Qin Shaoheng finished speaking, the lights in the restaurant turned on again.
