Chapter 170 Home as soon as I’m done
“Are you busy?” Gong Xiaoqiao asked.
“No, at home.”
“Back so early?”
Gong Xiaoqiao was a little surprised. It wasn’t time for Gu Xingshen to get off work time yet ah! Not to mention, he was a workaholic that often worked overtime.
Was it because of her….
“En, when are you coming back?” Listening to Gu Xingshen’s tone, he seemed to be in a good mood.
Gong Xiaoqiao suddenly had a little difficulty speaking, “That… I was just about to tell you that I’ll probably be back late today, the director said he wants to invite us out to dinner.”
There was silence on that end for a while.
“I see.”
“I’ll be home as soon as I’m done.” Gong Xiaoqiao didn’t know why she added this sentence.
“Mm-hmm.”
…
This meal was arranged at a nice hotel in A city A, the food in the private room having been cooked by a chef.
The others had already arrived first, Gong Xiaoqiao and Jin Mu Lin following afterwards.
As soon as Gong Xiaoqiao opened the door to the private room, she froze. A group of people had firecrackers in their hands. As soon as they came in, they popped them, colorful stripes fluttering towards her, and a huge multi-layer birthday cake on the table with a happy birthday song playing.
“Happy birthday!!!”
“Happy birthday !!!”
“Haha! Our birthday star is finally here!”
…
“Er… Jin Mu Lin, are you celebrating your birthday today? I’m sorry, I seem to have forgotten!” Gong Xiaoqiao looked apologetically at Jin Mu Lin out of the corner of her eye.
Jin Mu Lin pinched her cheek, extremely speechless. “You little idiot, are you working too hard that you have become stupid? You don’t even remember your birthday? Today is your birthday!”
“Ah? My birthday?” Gong Xiaoqiao was embarrassed.
It suddenly occurred to her that Gu Xingshen had asked her last night if she was free tonight, and told her to come back early. Was this the reason why?
However she had completely forgotten….
“Xiao Qiao, come and blow candles and make a wish!” Everyone urged.
Gong Xiaoqiao came back to her senses and hurried over.
Gong Xiaoqiao glanced at Jin Mu Lin
Jin Mu Lin blinked at her. “Of course it was arranged by your cutest second brother! Are you moved?”
She was able to get out late, but it was eleven fifty by the time she got home.
There villa was dark with no light on and there was no light on. He was probably already asleep!
Gong Xiaoqiao breathed out a sigh of relief, but at the same time was a bit disappointed.
Opening the door, the room was quiet.
She groped the wall to turn on the light, ready to lower her head to change out of her shoes, bending down to take them off.
Instantly, Gong Xiaoqiao who was standing at the door stared at the people in the room who were in various states of waiting.
Gong Xiaoqiao held her bunny slipper comically in her hands.
Sitting on the sofa in a slumped manner was Shen Letian, and Sheng Yu who was yawning, and Leng Tou who was holding his forehead.
Lying underneath the sofa was Tang Yu, who seemed to have fallen asleep.
In the chair, Leng Jing was looking down at her cell phone, pushing Tang Yu’s hand away from time to time.
Finally, Gu Xingshen, who was standing with his hand by the window expressionless.
The moment the light came on, Shen Letian rolled down from the sofa and hit Tang Yu’s body, causing him to howl out.
Sheng Yu and Leng Tou looked up in surprise, with a flash of surprise passing through Leng Jing’s eyes.
Gu Xingshen tilted his head slightly, looked at her, and said lightly, “Ten minutes left.”
She didn’t know if she had been drinking too much with them just now, but Gong Xiaoqiao felt as if she had stepped on clouds as she fluttered in.
