Chapter 85: Decided to Act at such a young Age
Chapter 85
At this moment, under the illumination of the lights, every little diamond on it was reflecting dazzling brightness.
Of course, if this was all there was to it, this microphone would only be noteworthy for its high cost.
But what made this gift unique was that among the expanse of diamonds encrusting it, there were actually characters spelling out “Chen” composed of blue diamonds.
“These blue diamonds...” Ji Mojun, Ji Mochen\'s cousin and Ji Moting’s second sister, looked thoughtful and said, “Why do they look so familiar?”
Ji Ruochu...silently averted her gaze.
The next second, everyone’s attention was drawn back to the gift again.
Such a thoughtful gift would be enough to deeply touch the recipient, let alone that it was entirely hand-made by Ji Ruochu alone.
For a moment, the fathers of the several families resentfully glanced at their own sons.
You tell me, what’s the use of raising sons?
After so many years, they’d never received any decent gifts!
Girls really are better after all!
The chubby boys who received the death stares: ...
And so, on this day, the usually low-profile Ji Mochen, rarely posted a photo on his social media.
The caption read: Let me show everyone the microphone for my concert next year.
After posting, he shamelessly commented on his own post:
Ji Mochen: This microphone was custom-made, but most importantly, this is a birthday present from my daughter.
Ji Mochen: No, not next year, from now on, this will be the microphone I use for all my concerts!
After this post was published, netizens also discussed spiritedly, and soon the top comment was pushed to the top:
【Did Ruochu stick them all on herself? Amazing!】
【Oh my, Ji Mochen, did you save the world in your past life? To have such an awesome daughter!】
The second top comment:
【I finally remembered why it looked so familiar. Ruochu, did you just take the blue diamond your second aunt gave you for your one week birthday and cut it into small diamonds?】
Below was a picture of a one-year-old Ji Ruochu happily smiling at the camera while holding a blue diamond.

Netizens in this thread:
【Ahhhhh! Rich lady flirting!】
【Rich lady sister! Do you like young fresh meat? What do you think of me?】
【Get the above poster out of here. Rich lady sister, don’t be so fixated on gender, young fresh flowers are great too, like me!】
【...Am I the only one concerned that the rich lady gifted a blue diamond worth more than my life for a one week birthday?】
【If I\'m not mistaken, the blue diamond in the picture is...】
【The Sea Blue Mystery diamond that was auctioned off to a mysterious tycoon at an overseas auction four years ago?】
【Poster above, be more confident, remove the “right?” and question mark, it is that one!】
【Blue diamond: I\'ve wandered far and wide all my life, never expecting to end up being cut up by a milk-drinking baby in the end! Oh the injustice!】
After the netizens did some archaeological work for a while on the various occasions this blue diamond had appeared at, Ji Mochen’s fans finally reacted belatedly...
【Ahhhh! I’m not seeing things right? Ruochu’s dad, you’re finally going to come out and earn school fees for your kid? Holding another concert?】
【Ruochu’s dad? My god, I can laugh at this term for a year hahahaha......】
【How presumptuous, what fan calls their idol something so dad-like?】
The next second, the leading character himself appeared again in the comments. Ji Mochen replied to the comment about him earning school fees:
【I already earned enough school fees long ago. Mainly because Ruochu is starting school next year, if I don’t hold concerts I’ll have nothing to do.】
Netizens below: ......
After a round of clamor and noise, the news of Ji Mochen holding a concert hit #1 on hot search again.
Hot search #2: The tragedy-filled life of a blue diamond.
Hot search #3: Ji Mochen’s new microphone.
Of course, these were just the carnival of netizens. For the Ji family...
Other than a certain formerly low-profile Heavenly King\'s schedule getting busier and busier, there was basically zero impact.
After all, compared to this, what Ji Mochen cared about more was what kind of birthday present his daughter would give his wife in half a month.
That complicated mood of hoping his daughter would prepare an equally thoughtful gift for his wife, yet also fearing it would be even better than what she gave him, really troubled the Heavenly King for a long time.
“Dad, I think you should be more worried about yourself,” Ji Ruochu finally couldn’t stand her fretting old father and took action.
“For your birthday, Mom really gave you a lot of face. I heard Uncle Qin say that she booked all the LED screens downtown and invited a really amazing music teacher to write you a song.
So Dad, what are you going to give Mom for her birthday?”
Ji Mochen felt like he was struck by lightning...
And so, Ji Ruochu was finally able to relax and busy herself with her own matters.
The days passed by one after another, and soon it was Ling Chujin’s birthday.
It was the same batch of relatives and friends, and still at the Ji house.
After blowing out the candles, what everyone still anticipated was the gift Ji Ruochu prepared.
Being eyed by everyone, Ji Ruochu said...there’s no need to make such a fuss.
To tell the truth, with that custom “Chen” microphone before, including Ling Chujin, everyone felt it would be hard to top that.
And things were just as they imagined. Compared to Ji Mochen’s luxurious custom microphone, Ji Ruochu’s gift this time was a small cake she handmade.
Very simple styling, the size of an adult’s palm, even the cream on the outside was slapped on unevenly.
On the cake were strawberry sauce characters spelling out a crooked “Jin”, and a “Ruo” signature below.
It seemed to be telling everyone that today’s birthday girl and the cake maker were her.
But no matter how you looked at it, compared to the gift from Ji Mochen half a month ago, this was really quite simple.
Moreover, there was already a more exquisite cake on the table.
Placed side by side, the palm-sized cake Ji Ruochu gave looked even plainer.
The atmosphere turned a little cold for a moment. Seeing Ling Chujin\'s eyes redden after catching sight of the cake, those present quickly moved to diffuse the awkward atmosphere.
“Ruochu can make cakes herself now?”
“She’s so thoughtful. My rotten brat is over ten now and still hasn’t made me any treats.”
After Ji Moyi and Ji Moting’s wives said that, they hurriedly signaled Ji Mochen with their eyes.
Asking him to quickly comfort Ling Chujin, after all, this was still a child’s thoughtful effort, she couldn’t let the kid get upset over it now.
Even though...it did feel like there was a big difference.
But—
“Ruochu.” A teardrop slipped from the corner of Ling Chujin’s eyes, her voice already carried a tinge of choking up,
“How did you know—”
Know what?
Everyone present was filled with curiosity.
Could it be this simple little cake held some special meaning?
Everyone: Unsure, keep watching.
“Hehe, I just knew.”
The little one put her hands behind her back and grinned, pushing the small cake on the table forward a bit: “Mommy, make another wish!”
Make another wish?
Everyone was puzzled. You could make two wishes on your birthday?
“This wish is Ruochu’s gift to you!”
The child’s voice was soft, but very sincere, once again touching Ling Chujin’s tender heart.
But she didn’t make a wish. Instead, she directly hugged the little one in her arms.
Looking at the plain little cake on the table, she sobbed:
“Mommy doesn’t need wishes anymore, having you is enough!”
This scene instantly stunned both families, only Ji Mochen seemed to have guessed something, his eyes also instantly turning red.
“Then—” Ji Ruochu gently wiped the tears from today’s birthday girl with a tissue, “Ruochu will make a wish for Mommy.”
She didn\'t even wait for Ling Chujin\'s response before her sweet, lilting child\'s voice rang out again:
“I hope when Ruochu grows up, she can film a hugely popular movie every year, and then invite Mommy to attend the premiere!”
Upon hearing this, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air.
What was going on?
The child was only a few years old? How could she be talking about acting already?!
Everyone reflexively looked at the couple, only to find they were even more shocked than themselves.
But only the husband and wife themselves knew, they weren’t shocked that the child wanted to act, but rather—
