Birth of a Beauty

Everybody froze as they were utterly suprised. The first one to recover was Li Cheng. He hastily took out his phone and looked at the date. Then, he facepalmed himself.

"I am really sorry Mother, I forgot about your birthday." Li Cheng hurriedly apologized. His voice made everyone to return to their senses. 'So, it is this old hag birthday today. Ah, this is so frustating. I lost another opportunity to curry favor with this old hag.' Tang Fian thought as she gritted her teeth.

Li Ri and Li Ruan looked at eachother but didn't say anything as they didn't know what to say. Su Yumi couldn't help but shed tears. She looked at Li Cheng "You don't have to feel sorry, I myself forgot that I had birthday today, but-"

Then she looked at Li Seulbi and said " This Child always remembers it and do anything to suprise me." Li Seulbi smiled as she wiped off the tears of Su Yumi " Grandma, Let's cut the cake."

Li Seulbi lit up the candle then Su Yumi blew it. Everyone sang Happy Birthday song for Su Yumi. As they ate cake, They were stunned as the cake's flavor was so good. It was a chocolate cake. The cake's bread was soft and the cream melts as it enters the mouth.

Even Li Ri and Li Ruan felt their mouth watering after taking one bite and couldn't help but to take another bite. Li Ruan ate the cake happily and looked at Li Seulbi as he asked "Hey Seulbi, Where did you buy this cake? It tastes quite good and different than others."

Li Seulbi raised her brow "Really? Is it that good? It was made by me." Li Ruan didn't hear the last sentence as he indifferently said "Of Course it taste good." Everyone beside Li Ruan looked at Li Seulbi strangely.

When Li Ri who was drinking water heard the cake was made by Li Seulbi, She puked the water over Tang Fian's face. Tang Fian became red in anger instantly. She glared vicsously at Li Ri. Li Ri was scared out of her wits.

Su Yumi grabbed Li Seulbi's hand " Did you really make this cake?" Li Seulbi nodded her head. That moment Li Ruan knew the reason why Li Ri puked water all of a sudden. If he was the one drinking water, he would have done the same thing.

Li Cheng was the one who was the most shocked. He felt something really familiar when he first tasted the cake, turn outs Li Seulbi made the cake herself. His heart felt a sharp pain and he was overwhlemed by a storm of emotion.

A single tear left his left eye as he looked at Li Seulbi. A sudden illusion took place, Instead of Li Seulbi, there sat a very beautiful woman who was busy chatting with Su Yumi. The woman was none other than Li Seulbi's mother, Zhao Seong.

She looked at Li Cheng and offered a piece of cake made by her. She slightly tilted her head as she said in a sweet and loving voice "ChengCheng, Please taste it. It is made by me, without any help. I really hope you will like it. Try it."

Li Cheng became very happy as he opened his mouth to eat the cake. But before he could eat it, The vision / illusion in front of him blurred and he came back to his sense and felt someone was shaking him. "Xiao Cheng..Xiao Cheng.." Su Yumi looked at her dazed son and was worried seeing he wasn't responding to her. After shaking him for a while, Li Cheng came out of his daze and looked at Su Yumi. Su Yumi hit Li Cheng slightly on head and looked angry " You idiot, You almost caused my poor heart to have a stroke. I was nearly scared to death. Why were you so out of your mind that you couldn't even response when i shook you so hard?"

Li Cheng looked pitiful and sad as he realized he was having hallucination just now. Looking at her sad son, Su Yumi thought she scolded him a bit much so he was depressed over the matter.

Before she could say anything, Li Cheng said "Sorry mother, I just remembered very important thing from past. I felt that the taste of the cake made by Xiao Seulbi is rather familiar then i remembered her mother used to bake cakes and the best cake she could make was the chocolate cake. "

"Thus, i guess Li Seulbi is able to make such a good cake even if it her first time because of genes from her mother."

Li Ri and Tang Fian were not there because Tang Fian's heavy makeup was flushed off and messed up by the water spurted by Li Ri. So they went to fix that.

Only Li Ruan remained there. He wasn't interested in the conversation the trio was having so he put on his head phone and listened to music. He frequently looked at the cake, and wanted nothing but to eat it in one gulp but not to hurt his ego, he distant himself from the cake.

Li Seulbi and Su Yumi were both suprised after listening to Li Cheng's explanation. Li Seulbi looked at the cake and said softly "While i was cleaning my room few days ago, i found a diary. It looked quite formal one, so i thought it was yours but when i flipped through few pages i found there were many recipes of various dishes."

"There was no name in the diary. And the handwriting was so good and clear. I had an idea when i saw the recipe of making chocolate cake. Then i made it early in this morning. But Never in my dreams i thought it was my own mother's diary."

After Li Seulbi finished speaking, No one spoke further. Su Yumi noticed the awkward emotional atmosphere, so she cleared her throat and said "It's a happy moment. Let's count to 1, 2 and 3 remove all the sad memories behind and everyone be happy."

"1..2..3" Su Yumi muttered. Instantly the father and daughter duo smiled and laughed. Again the atmosphere became lively. After Tang Fian and Li Ri came back, they packed up and left for home.0000
