chapter 99

While Mo Fei was secretly surprised that Yang Yi had actually learned to play the guitar, Yang Yi had already started his singing .

“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…”

When the first sentence was sung, Mo Fei was a little surprised . This world also has a birthday song, but it wasn’t sung in this way, and the delivery was also a bit subtle . It was a bit like the old Cantonese song “Wish you a happy life” . How could it be as straightforward as Yang Yi’s?

However, hearing the second sentence and the third sentence, Mo Fei was amused: this Yang Yi, really, how could the lyrics be repeated .

Yes, the birthday song was so simple . There was only one sentence in the lyrics, and then it was simply repeated with only a slight change in tone .

However, Xixi liked this kind of simple repetition, which was in line with the acceptance level at her age, such as “Let it go” . Xixi has been learning it from her father for a long time, yet she only knew how to sing “let it go” .

“……Happy Birthday” was repeated only a few times, and Xixi was able to clap her hands and hummed along with a big smile .

Yang Yi became excited and, in one repetition, changed into the English lyrics: “Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you…”

Mo Fei was stunned . It was really the first time she heard Yang Yi speak English . Although it was a simple repetition of a sentence, Yang Yi’s words were still very clear .
