Chapter 02

- The birthday party

What could be the best way to beat the tiredness of working all night, more than a shower? He just went to his favorite place, which could be the best place to release exhaust, the hot shower.
He just stood up in his favorite hot shower and turned on the button. The cozy warm water escaped the shower's head and fell on his masculine, pearly skin.
Breathing out, he closed his eyes while running his hand through his wet hair.

After enjoying the shower time, he wrapped his bathrobe around and came out of the bathroom.
The drops of water were dropping out of his wet hair as he walked towards the wardrobe.
Grabbing his favorite blue suit, he wore a white shirt underneath.

At all times, his TV was on as he was listening to the news.

"And the latest news, the popular, young and handsome CEO of China's famous comic company, Mr. Wen, is going to attend Ms. Song's birthday party. There is a rumor that both are going to make their relationship public."

Annoyed, he held the TV remote and switched it off. "Fools!"

Just then, his phone started ringing as he answered it.

??: What do you want, Xiaomi?

Xiaomi: Mr. Wen, are you really going to her party? Do you know about the rumors already?

Wen: Hmm, I just saw it. However, it doesn't matter to me. I'm going there for a deal.

Xiaomi: But still-

Cutting his words off, he grabbed the coat and wore it.

Wen: I don't care about the media. I plan to crack the pending deal with Mr. Song. And for that, I have to go to his daughter's birthday party.

Though he was successful, the greed to reach the top was still in him.

Wrapping his wristwatch around, he looked at the mirror. While wasting no time, he walked away.

..................................

She was going towards her company when someone called her from behind.

"CONG RONG."

Her steps stopped there as she looked back cluelessly.

"Sister Yao?"

Signaling her to come here, she flashed a smile as Rong went to her.

"What happened to you?"

"Ah! Rong, can you offer me some help?"

Yao Yao ran a baking shop near her company. She always treated Rong like her younger sister, and thus they shared a close bond.

Smiling at her, she replied. "Sure, sister Yao. How can I help you?"

She didn't hesitate once to say yes. Leaving all her work inside, she remained humble and tried to help her out.

"Rong, I have to deliver these cakes to a grand birthday party. However, my sister is not here. Can you help me with it?"

"Sure, sister Yao. Where is the party?"

"Jiaxing five-star hotel."

...................................

They took a little more time due to the traffic, but they finally reached.

In one corner of the hall, they started assembling that cake.

"Okay, Rong. You hold this piece, and I'll take the other. We have to take the cake to the center."

"Okay, sister Yao."

.......................................

As soon as he reached the party, Mr. Song's daughter was not leaving him alone, even for a moment. He already had started feeling tired of her.
However, to meet her dad, he had to bear with her.

He was standing in a corner calmly while sipping wine that she rushed to him.

"Wen Shaoqing, you finally came to meet me."

"Song Mido, happy birthday to you."

Taking a step closer, she came closer to him as he rolled his eyes.

"How can my birthday be happy without you? All want to see us together, Shaoqing."

"You already know, there is nothing between us."

Gulping down his wine, he moved ahead when she held his hand. "You know I love you. Then, why can't we be together?"

Taking a deep breath, he firmly pressed his lips together as he removed her hands from his arm. "Because I don't love you simply."

He kept his poker face while walking away as Mido started coming after him.

...........................................

As the cake was heavy, Rong was struggling to keep holding it.
Keeping a hold, she had walked a bit, but then her eyes fell on a guy standing in the limelight.
He was none other than Rong's favorite movie star, Li He. He had been her crush since her college days.
His charm was enough to make her fade away.
Seeing him in front of her eyes, she could not stop her excitement.
That's when Wen Shaoqing was coming from the front, and Mido was also following him.
She kept moving forward without even looking, and in an instant, she came to know when her balance got disrupted.

Rong lost her balance, and with it, the cake held in her hand popped out and fell on the Shaoqing's body.
That moment came to a standstill when everyone's gaze shifted from Li He to Shaoqing.
Everyone was stunned to see that scene.
However, Rong fell to the ground. And her knees seemed to get a cut.

While tugging her hair back, she stood up. Her eyes popped out of her socket as she was shocked to see Shaoqing drowned in the cake.

Gulping hard, she placed a hand on her mouth. As if she knew, she was in big trouble today.
