Chapter 1149: Chapter 1149

Tang Ming smiled smugly. Except for Liu Mengting and the other two women, with whom he shared sincere relationships, all other women had interests or grudges intertwined with him. No one could guarantee who was truly sincere.

"Mistress, the master is awake."

Wu Xiaoyu mischievously smiled, suddenly shouting to Xia Wei’er.

"Did you have a good sleep?"

Xia Wei’er was momentarily stunned and quickly walked toward the sofa.

"Hey, even though Wei’er’s family background isn’t as good as ours, she’s really excellent."

Liu Mengting sighed helplessly, looking at Xia Wei’er’s back, admitting that she had to give credit where it’s due.

"Wei’er, why are you here?"

Tang Ming sat up, rubbing his eyes hazily, and quickly said, "Let me introduce you to someone, she is..."

"Tang Xiaoyu, we’ve already met."

Xia Wei’er gently smiled and sat beside Tang Ming, tenderly saying, "Why didn’t you sleep in the room? What if you catch a cold?"

"I’m so strong, how could I catch a cold."

Tang Ming grinned, grabbing Xia Wei’er’s hand, "This is my maid, her family forced her onto me. Why not let her serve you? I feel awkward having her around."

"Ha ha, I didn’t notice you feeling awkward. Weren’t you enjoying it?"

Liu Mengting approached with a sneer, mocking.

"Right, right, isn’t there a saying — when awake, rule the world; when drunk, rest on a beauty’s lap? How come now you’re willing to give such a pretty maid to Wei’er?"

Li Xiaoli chimed in her support instantly.

"Wei’er is the most beautiful woman in my heart."

Tang Ming hugged Xia Wei’er’s waist proudly and said, "What’s mine is Wei’er’s too. What’s a maid worth?"

"That’s enough for me."

Xia Wei’er blushed, leaning into Tang Ming’s embrace, "You should let Xiaoyu serve you. As a student, I’m not used to having a maid, and besides, it doesn’t suit my status."

"You’re my woman, so no matter how many maids you have, it suits your status, as long as you like it."

Tang Ming said domineeringly.

Xia Wei’er sweetly smiled.

Liu Mengting rubbed her arms with a look of disgust, "I’ve got goosebumps all over."

"Showing off your love is a quick road to disaster. You two are spreading dog food so blatantly, I must draw a circle and curse you!"

Li Xiaoli protested with a face full of resentment.

"Jealousy, pure jealousy and envy."

Tang Ming glanced disdainfully at Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli.

"Ming, when is your birthday?"

Suddenly, Xia Wei’er straightened up and curiously asked.

Tang Ming was slightly taken aback, looking at Xia Wei’er with confusion, "Why are you asking this?"

"I just wanted to know. It seems none of us knows when your birthday is."

Xia Wei’er glanced at Liu Mengting and Li Xiaoli.

"Right, it seems Tang Ming’s birthday is indeed a mystery."

Li Xiaoli seriously nodded.

Liu Mengting opened her mouth but hesitated to continue.

"I’m an orphan, so I don’t know my birthday."

Tang Ming tilted his head, thinking. He hadn’t celebrated his birthday all these years, so it was indeed an issue.

Wu Xiaoyu and the others looked at Tang Ming in surprise, not expecting such an impressive guy to be an orphan.

Liu Mengting rolled her eyes. She had heard Tang Ming say he was an orphan before; how could an orphan remember their own birthday?

"It’s okay, why don’t we just treat today as your birthday every year from now on, how about that?"

Xia Wei’er looked earnestly at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming looked at Xia Wei’er blankly and unsurely said, "I heard the old man say that when he found me, it seemed to be today, but he never celebrated my birthday."

"Then let’s just make today your birthday, and we can celebrate together. Isn’t that fine?"

Xia Wei’er pleaded as she looked at Tang Ming.

"As long as you’re happy, I’m fine with it."

"Celebrating a birthday is too rushed, isn’t it?"

Liu Mengting mumbled with confusion, frowning.

"It’s just right today is the weekend. We have time to help Ming prepare for his birthday, or when school starts, and everyone is busy with college entrance exams, there might not be time to do these things."

Xia Wei’er smiled as she stood up and announced, "Let’s go shopping now."

"Okay, I’ll ask Uncle Quan and them to prepare a birthday meal, and today we’ll have a proper feast."

Liu Mengting shouted fiercely.

"Hey, should we inform Zhou Dafu and them?"

Li Xiaoli asked uncertainly.

"No need, this is Ming’s first birthday, just the few of us will celebrate with him."

Xia Wei’er said with rare determination.

Liu Mengting nodded, and then picked up her bag, heading out with Xia Wei’er and Li Xiaoli.

"Hey, so what are we going to do?"

Tang Ming, sprawled on the sofa, shouted uncertainly.

"Ming, you have a good nap, and we’ll prepare the birthday party for you. Xiaoyu, go help Uncle Quan and see if there’s anything that needs doing."

Xia Wei’er instructed without looking back.

Wu Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly.

"I’m suddenly quite looking forward to it. I’ve never celebrated a birthday this big before; I wonder what it feels like?"

Tang Ming watched the three women leave with anticipation.

"Master, shall I assist you back to your room to sleep?"

Wu Xiaoyu said with a beaming smile, looking at Tang Ming.

"What’s there to assist with in sleeping? Go do what you need to do."

Tang Ming rolled his eyes, got up, and started walking upstairs, "Pick any room you want on any floor except the third."

Watching Tang Ming’s back, Wu Xiaoyu’s eyes sparkled with interest.

"Celebrating a birthday? Wei’er is truly thoughtful. I’ve never had a birthday this big before; I suddenly feel so happy."

Back in his room, Tang Ming took a shower, lay on his bed, and laughed silly as he pondered.

"Master, would you like some company while you sleep?"

Just as Tang Ming was drifting off, Wu Xiaoyu appeared at his bedside, her gaze burning with intensity as she asked.

"Geez, you scared me!"

Tang Ming shivered and lifted his head, ready to get angry, but then...

At this moment, Wu Xiaoyu had changed into a nearly transparent maid outfit, her icy complexion and alluring figure faintly visible, paired with her blushing cheeks and enchanting eyes — it instantly stirred the male hormones.

Tang Ming swallowed hard, trying his best to stay clear-headed, and shouted in annoyance, "Are you crazy? Coming in without knocking, dressed , what do you want?"

"I’m the master’s maid, naturally here to serve the master thoroughly."

Wu Xiaoyu glanced at Tang Ming below, her face blushing, "Including bedroom services."

"Hiss, I-I don’t need that. Just get out."

Tang Ming pulled the blanket over, placing it between his legs, and said gloomily, "We don’t have any feelings between us, I won’t touch you."
