The villa, with a comfortable temperature, was filled with melodious music.
Qian Lele followed Tang Song to sit on the sofa, looking around at the luxurious decor with curiosity, nervousness, and delight etched on her face.
Ding Yao moved the fruit platter and snacks on the coffee table in front of them, saying, "Have some fruit first; a few friends haven’t arrived yet. The birthday party will start at half past seven. Lele, you look stunning today, absolutely beautiful!"
Qian Lele clasped her hands tightly on her lap, feeling a bit awkward. "Not really... Yaoyao, you’re overpraising me."
"Just telling the truth!"
As they chatted, Ding Yao opened the gift from Qian Lele with delight - a beautiful pair of gold earrings.
Tang Song gave a silk scarf from LV, with great colors and style.
After expressing sincere gratitude, she put the earrings on immediately, happily taking a few selfies and sharing them on her social media.
Knowing her friend’s financial status made the gift even more precious.
This is why she likes Qian Lele so much.
As long as you treat her well, she will certainly repay you twice as much, never disappointing anyone.
While working part-time in the school’s entrepreneurial base cafe, Qian Lele had helped her many times.
Through these numerous interactions, she recognized Lele as a good friend.
And she was willing to introduce her friends to Lele.
Chaotic footsteps sounded, and Ding Yao’s friends gradually came back, their expressions very complex.
The buzz-cut guy nudged Zhang Haoyu with his shoulder, whispering, "Haoyu, this situation is tough; you probably don’t stand a chance."
Meiqi covered her mouth and chuckled, "I agree with Su Minghao; the charm competition is over, and I declare Lele’s male companion the winner!"
The other girls nodded in agreement, "Seconded!"
"Haoyu, I can only say you’re too young; that person’s aura is unbeatable."
"But to be fair, Qian Lele really looks beautiful today!"
Zhang Haoyu grimaced, picked up a drink from the buffet table, and took a sip, his expression bitter. "Let me tell you, that guy was nothing last time we met. Who the hell would have thought he’s a scheming old fox pretending to be harmless!"
The buzz-cut Su Minghao slung his arm over Zhang Haoyu’s shoulder, laughing boldly, "Maybe his car was borrowed for show; people like that aren’t rare."
A girl suddenly said, "I don’t think so!"
"Why do you say that? Do you know him?"
The girl glanced in Tang Song’s direction, whispering, "You all are too focused on his looks; didn’t you notice his watch is very expensive?"
"What kind of watch is he wearing?"
"It’s a Patek Philippe complex chronograph wristwatch. I don’t know the exact model, but the price should be around a million yuan."
"What if it’s a counterfeit?" Su Minghao scratched his head, dismissively.
The girl was taken aback, then laughed cheerfully, "I just feel this little brother is so handsome; he definitely isn’t the type to be deceitful!"
"Right, right! Looks are justice, I believe that too!"
After a moment, the girls exchanged smiles and simultaneously gathered around Ding Yao and Qian Lele.
Their attitude became very enthusiastic.
"Hello, Lele, welcome, welcome!"
"Hi, Lele, I’m Zhang Yameng. It’s our first meeting, though I’ve seen your photos in Yaoyao’s circle before. You’re much prettier in person!"
"I have a Chanel camellia cape too, but it doesn’t look as good on me as it does on you."
Even though chatting with Qian Lele, their gazes kept drifting to Tang Song’s position unconsciously.
Du Jiao licked her lips, unable to resist walking over too.
Ultimately, they still wanted to chat with a handsome guy.
Duan Fang stood awkwardly in the corner, unable to sit or walk away, with no one paying attention to her.
Seeing this scene, several boys wore expressions of frustration.
Damn, this is classic betrayal for the sake of looks! So true!
Feeling the unprecedented enthusiasm around her, Qian Lele was a bit uneasy, politely responding passively.
Tang Song smiled knowingly, taking the initiative to chat with them.
"This camellia cape really suits Lele. The camellia is one of Chanel’s iconic elements, symbolizing purity and elegance..."
Tang Song sat elegantly on the sofa, speaking confidently and calmly.
From luxury goods, he moved on to the birthday party’s decor, then naturally shifted to university life, smoothly involving Qian Lele in the conversation.
Occasionally, he would joke in a humorous and witty manner with Qian Lele, making Ding Yao’s friends relax and join in with laughter and playful banter.
His eyes were deep and bright, his lips beautifully contoured.
As his lips curved slightly upwards, his red lips and white teeth resembled the warm sun of spring.
The girls couldn’t take their eyes off him, their cheeks blushing.
How could a guy have such a gorgeous smile!
Watching the confident and admired Tang Song, Qian Lele’s eyes shone with admiration.
She always knew Tang Song was outstanding, whether it was his exceptional sketching and professional skills, his sincere and insightful conversations, or his dedicated and serious study attitude, all proving his extraordinary nature.
However, today’s Tang Song showed a different demeanor.
No longer silent and reserved, it was as if he was glowing.
Ding Yao stole a glance at Tang Song’s cool, handsome face, her heart involuntarily speeding up.
She wasn’t a fangirl nor a love-crazed person.
But this guy was incredibly charming!
His physique and features were impeccable, even better than the celebrities she had seen.
