Standing in front of the door for a moment, he let out a sigh. It seemed that he has been forgotten completely.
Raising his hand to input the password, as soon as his foot stepped into the house, he immediately sensed the chaotic sound of breathing. His body tensed up in an instant, and he squinted as he scanned his surroundings.
In a split second, countless possibilities flashed through his mind. Were they here seeking revenge? Or was it for something else? Was it directed at him or at Lu Miao?
Gu Shiyan suddenly felt grateful that Lu Miao had forgotten his birthday today and wasn’t at home.
Based on the sounds of breathing, he tentatively judged that there were at least a dozen people in the house.
The sound of footsteps suddenly drew closer. Before he could react, there was a sharp “click,” and a blue flame from a lighter illuminated the room. Then, the flickering candlelight revealed the familiar face before him. Lu Miao stood before him, holding a birthday cake in her hands.
“Happy birthday to you…”
Many voices chimed in together behind her.
So, she hadn’t forgotten. She had called Gu Ziheng upstairs last night and disappeared today to prepare a surprise for him.
The sulky air that had been lingering in Gu Shiyan’s mind since last night vanished in an instant, replaced by a growing smile in his eyes.
After the birthday song was sung, Gu Shiyan took a step forward with a smile, about to speak, but Lu Miao suddenly stepped back. Then, the overhead lights came on, and deafening music filled the air.
A dozen or so stunning young ladies, each dressed alluringly, revealed a row of long, slender legs as they energetically sang and danced in front of him. It was clear that their makeup and styling were professionally done, and even their dance had been rehearsed in advance.
It was obviously a meticulously planned performance.
Was this the “surprise” she had prepared for him?
Gu Shiyan’s temple throbbed, his gaze skimming over the group of young and beautiful girls without pause, and he looked toward the back.
There, he saw Gu Ziheng standing beside Lu Miao, whispering something in her ear.
Beside them, Gu Ziheng was excitedly dancing along to the music.
Gu Shiyan stood expressionless, the girls danced two songs in succession, performing energetically for nearly ten minutes before it came to an end. Then, they all shouted loudly at Gu Shiyan, “Happy birthday, President Gu.” Gu Ziheng and Gu Ziheng immediately applauded enthusiastically.
Gu Ziheng looked at Lu Miao with pride and said, “Sister-in-law, wasn’t my choreography impressive? Second Brother was left speechless.”
Left speechless?
Gu Shiyan almost burst out laughing from anger. He suppressed the impulse to immediately step forward and throw them all out. Struggling to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, he walked over to the sofa and sat down. He wanted to see what else they had prepared.
In the next while, various performances took turns on stage – solo dances, duets, and group performances.
In their living room, they had created a lively, mini-concert.
If it weren’t for the fact that there were already few residents in Lingyue Mansion and the houses were far apart, Gu Shiyan would have suspected that the neighbors might come knocking on their door.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he felt like he had seen these people somewhere before.
When the performances finally ended, Gu Ziheng stepped forward and handed each of the girls a large red envelope, then saw them off in the pre-arranged
vehicles.
Back inside the house, Gu Ziheng looked at Gu Shiyan with a cheerful expression. “Second Brother, how was it? Did you enjoy it? This was a birthday gift that Sister-in-law and I put a lot of effort into preparing for you.”
“Specially prepared for me?” Gu Shiyan looked at Lu Miao.
“Of course. Sister-in-law said you used to really like ‘Youth Trainees.’ But they were originally a limited-time group, and their contracts have already expired.
To gather them together for today, we had to rehearse in advance.
Sister-in-law and I put in a lot of effort.” Gu Ziheng spoke proudly.
Gu Shiyan looked at Lu Miao with deep eyes.”Thank you for your effort.”
His tone was polite and polite. After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs.
Gu Ziheng blinked.” Is Second Brother angry?”
“I don’t think so. He just said thank you. I think Second Brother must have been too touched. He was afraid that it would be too embarrassing for us to see him cry, so he secretly hid in his room and cried.”Gu Jinxi touched his chin and analyzed it seriously.
There was a bang from upstairs, and the sound of the door closing.
Lu Miaoruo looked upstairs and stuffed the cake in her hand into Gu Jinxi’s hand. Then, she went straight upstairs to Gu Shiyan’s room and raised her hand to knock on the door.
However, there was no sound coming from the room. When he knocked again, it was still quiet, as if there was no one inside at the moment.
Lu Miao pushed the door open and entered. The room was pitch black, and she could only see a blurry figure on the balcony.
He lifted his leg and walked forward. Before he even reached the front, he could smell a faint smell of smoke.
In the night, a little red light flickered as Gu Shiyan smoked.
From the first time she saw Gu Shiyan until now, she had never seen Gu Shiyan smoke. In fact, every time someone smoked in front of her, Gu Shiyan would pull her away.
Lu Miao walked to his side and said directly,” You’re unhappy.” Gu Shiyan took a deep breath.”
“Because of the performance just now?” Lu Miao asked in confusion.
Although Gu Shiyan was angry, he still could not bear to see her choke on the cigarette. He put out the cigarette with his fingertips.
“Do you think I watched the youth trainees because I liked to watch them sing and dance?”
Lu Miao recalled carefully. She remembered that Gu Shiyan had indeed been very engrossed in watching the show on the plane back then. She could not have remembered wrongly.
Moreover, watching a show was not watching a performance. What else could it be?
“Isn’t it?”
Gu Shiyan was so angry that he turned around and reached out to clamp her chin. He lowered his head and bit her lips hard as if he was punishing her.
His other hand held her tightly in his arms, wishing he could become one with her.
As she grew up, Gu Shiyan could not help but kiss her every time he flew over to her side. However, he had always been gentle, and other than that, he had never done anything out of line.
However, Gu Shiyan came menacingly today. He was unusually strong, as if he wanted to swallow her up.
Gu Shiyan’s body was about to explode at this moment. His rationality forced him to restrain himself. He let go of Lu Miao and lowered his head to press against her forehead as he asked.
He lowered his head and bit her lips as a punishment.
