Chapter 360
In that instance, Qiao Anhao had just refreshed her page, and when she saw his response, her lips curled into a smile uncontrollably .
She didn’t continue to reply Lu Jinnian on weibo, but every now and then, she her attention would be drawn to him, sitting beside her .
In the car, even though the two of them didn’t talk, the atmosphere felt particularly affectionate .
When the car drove past a rather old KTV, Qiao Anhao thought back to when Lu Jinnian and her had started to grow closer in the first year of high school . Every year, he would give her a birthday present, up until the year she graduated . Since then, she had not received any of his presents .
Back then, it was also coincidentally when their relationship started to gradually grow to become colder .
In high school, she treated her classmates at that KTV many times .
After the car had long passed the KTV, Qiao Anhao turned her head and looked over at Lu Jinnian . “Who would have thought that you remembered my birthday . I thought you’d have forgotten it long ago . “
Lu Jinnian stared straight at the neon lights on the street in front . The lights endlessly flashed across his face, which made his expression look slightly blurred . He was silent for around five seconds, then said, “I’ve never forgotten . “
Her birthday, his mother’s birthday, and the anniversary of his mother’s passing were the most important dates these past years . He’d never forgotten them once .
Qiao Anhao’s heart trembled, and an unspeakable anxiousness came over her . She held her breath and asked, as though to confirm something, “You always remembered my birthday?”
“After celebrating seven birthdays, how could I forget?” As Lu Jinnian said those words, his tone seemed to reveal an indescribable sentiment .
Even though the birthday gifts he gave her in her youth were modest, he would spend that day with her every year .

From the first year of high school till the first year of university, it had been seven years . In those seven years, he had fought his very hardest to love her .
Seven years?
Those words instantly reminded Qiao Anhao of their youth, and the days she persisted in loving him . She had cherished every one of his gifts, like they were the world’s most precious treasures .
Qiao Anhao’s brows suddenly furrowed . That wasn’t right . She only received six presents in the past . Why did he say ‘seven years’? Did it include this year’s present?
Qiao Anhao thought of asking Lu Jinnian when her phone suddenly rang .
It was an unknown number .
Qiao Anhao swallowed her words and picked up the phone . The sound of a polite woman’s voice came from the other line . “Pardon me, am I speaking to Mr . Xu Jiamu’s wife, Mrs . Qiao Anhao?”
Qiao Anhao was stunned for a moment . “And you are?”
“It’s the hospital, Mr . Xu has just woken up . I called the Xu family, but nobody was available to take the call, so I could only contact you . “
“I’ll be right there . ” Qiao Anhao hung up the phone, and said to Lu Jinnian beside her, “We have to go to the hospital . Brother Jiamu just woke up . “
Lu Jinnian gave a gentle nod and silently turned the car around, towards Xu Jiamu’s hospital .
Along the way, from the bottom of his heart, he thought . . . with Xu Jiamu awake, would that be the end of them?
Along the way, from the bottom of her heart, she thought . . . with Brother Jiamu awake and how well their current relationship was, could they still be friends like this after the marriage was over?
Along the way, the two of them had different thoughts . One was afraid of breaking up, the other thought of starting anew .

Eight Years Ago"Mom.." I say with a small smile on my face.My sister had passed her first music lesson and we're all so proud of her."What is it Layla!? can't you see I'm busy?!" She snaps."Oh.." I say, my smile faltering slightly, as I watch mom cuddle Heidi and give her lots of sweets as reward."C-can I have a sweetie too?" I ask.Mom laughs coldly. "Why should you? You've never achieved anything, have you?! Lazy little brat." Heidi giggles and I look at her to see a smirk on her face, making my face fall. I watch mom whisper things to Heidi, making her giggle even more.The door swings open, and my dad walks in.I smile again, running to him and hug his knees but he just brushes me off with an annoyed expression, walking towards my mom hugging her and ruffling Heidi's hair.What's going on?"Dad..ruffle my hair too?" I ask hesitantly.All three of them burst out laughing and I sink down in embarassment."Layla, we always knew you weren't the brightest kid here." He laughs "I just knew you'd be a screw up, right Luise?" He says and she nods."And I was right. You're a failure" He grabs my maths sheet, crumples it up and throws it at me. "You spend way too much time with your 'friends' never on your education, you ungrateful little brat. We should've got rid of you as soon as we found out you were on the way." He spits out spitefully as my mum nods, still smirking."Dad I'll do better, I promise!"I sob, tears streaming down my face, but he shakes his head, smirking. I look at my sister and walk towards her giving her a watery smile."H-Heidi... we're still friends right?" I ask, desperately.Her smirk slowly vanishes. she leans forward and I thought she'd hug me, but instead she pulls my hair and pushes me onto the floor making me scream.She laughs, my parents joining her."Stupid" she hisses, kicking me, before going to my parents, all of them walking out, leaving me on the floor, crying my eyes out.What have I done to deserve this?

Choosing His Luna (bxb)
This is a story I have published on Inkitt and I thought I'd post it on here too since I've started to update it again. 😅 I hope to continue to do so although the updates will probably be only once or twice a month.The chapters are a little shorter than what I normally post on Wattpad but I hope you enjoy them all the same.‐-----------------------------The fateful day had finally arrived, the one which I had been preparing for since birth, one which my parents had been preparing for since I'd been conceived. Well, that wasn't exactly true, my parents had been preparing, and I on the other hand had been mostly unwilling with the whole affair. See I was a werewolf, my whole family was, or pack if you will. It was tradition for all those of marriageable age to gather on the strongest werewolf pack in the world, to try and impress the next Alpha to be, the most powerful werewolf in the world. It was a major honour to be chosen by the Alpha, for the individual and their whole pack. So here I was, packing a bag for the journey and time I would be spending at the strongest pack in the world, which was called the Stentorian Pack and was located deep in the mountains surrounded by forest. My parents thought I had a chance, they'd told me what to eat, how to act, and how to look all my life, needless to say, it had gotten old pretty quick. All the lack of control I'd had over my life had boiled down to this day, it had all been for this day. I had to be the most attractive, smartest, and likeable... you get the idea, and I couldn't help but feel inadequate.
