The Most Romantic Birthday

"Let's go." Lisa held her hand as he walked inside.

His movements were extremely natural.

Jennie glanced at their linked hands. Although she knew that Lisa was just worried that there would be another mishap, her mood changed slightly.

The lighting in the control room was very dim. There were only about ten or so computers operating, emitting a cold glow.

Jennie followed Lisa as they made their way around. In the end, they found Leo in front of the largest machine.

Leo looked very small as he sat on his little custom-made chair in front of that monstrous machine covered in countless wires. He stared expressionlessly at the flickering screen displaying endless lines of text from computer programs. A smaller robot that closely resembled his own body shape stood by his side. The gun barrel in its hand was pointed perfectly straight in their direction.

When she saw the aloof and lifeless expression on Leo's face, Jennie felt as though her heart had been squeezed tightly by iron claws. It hurt so much she could barely breathe.

"Leo..." She trembled as she called out softly.

The little guy stared at the screen without the slightest reaction.

Jennie was really frightened now. She had heard Lisa and the others mention this before, but she had never personally seen what Leo was like when his sickness acted up.

"What do we do... This is all my fault..."

"Jennie, don't blame yourself. It's not a big deal. It's quite common for him to be in this state. He'll be fine if you call out to him a couple more times." Lisa reassured her.

In actual fact, Lisa only said that because he was talking to Jennie. If it was someone else standing in her position, things wouldn't be this simple.

After forcing herself to calm down, Jennie carefully approached him one step at a time.

While the little robot's head followed her as she moved, Leo remained just as unresponsive as before.

Jennie walked up to Leo and then slowly squatted down. She cautiously took up his small hand, "Leo... Auntie is back now... Sorry... Something happened to Auntie last night so Auntie couldn't make it back..."

Since Jennie couldn't explain the details to him, she could only lower her head sadly.

After some time, a tiny little fist suddenly appeared in her line of sight.

Following that, the little fist slowly opened to reveal a pink hair clip sitting in the middle of a soft palm. More than a hundred small, pink diamonds lined up to form a heart on the hair clip. They glittered under the cold glow of the machines around them.

"This is..." Jennie looked up immediately in surprise and happiness. However, not a single trace of emotion showed on the little guy's face.

At the side, Lisa glanced at the hair clip in the palm of his son's hand and spoke, "This is the birthday present Leo made for you."

"So this is for me...." The present really contained diamonds!

Jennie felt rather embarrassed.

Lisa saw through her thoughts and explained immediately, "They're just some common rhinestones so it's not very expensive. However, Leo personally glued on each of the 99 crystals one at a time."

When Jennie heard this, she was moved to tears in an instant. Instead of taking the hair clip directly, she asked Leo, "Could you help Auntie put it on?"

Leo's vision slowly focused on the hair clip, before he extended his little hand and clumsily placed the hair clip on her hair, close to her ear.

Jennie touched the clip and smiled happily, "Does it look nice?"

Leo nodded.

After finally getting a response from Leo, Jennie couldn't endure it any longer, so she pulled the little guy into her arms.

At the same moment, with a 'bang', the little robot on the side shot out a burst of colorful confetti and even began to play the Happy Birthday song.

Jennie's eyes watered up as she looked up at the confetti-filled air, "Thank you, Darling. This is the most romantic birthday I've ever had in my life!"
