Actually, it wasn't really a birthday party. They had just prepared dinner at Gu Xiao's grandmother's place. Gu Xiao had said that there were only the two of them, he xihuai, and his grandmother. There were only a few people he was close to.
At seven o 'clock, Gu Xiao sent her a message. when are you guys arriving? "
Wen Qiao replied, " your brother is still in a meeting. It seems to be an important board meeting. If you guys are in a hurry, you can eat first. You don't have to wait for us.
"It's fine. I'll wait until you guys are together."
Wen Qiao waited for a while longer. It was only at eight o 'clock that there was a commotion outside. Just as she was about to get up, the door to the office opened. The senior executives from Fu Nanli's faction followed behind him, seemingly wanting to continue discussing company matters with young master Fu.
Fu Nanli waved his hand. alright, I still have some private matters to attend to. That's all for today.
Those people quickly left tactfully, but before they left, they gave Wen Qiao a meaningful look.
Some of them were seeing Wen Qiao for the first time, so when they left, they whispered, " "It's no wonder young master can't control himself when he looks like this."
He Yumin coughed lightly. don't talk about young master in private.
Fu Nanli brought Wen Qiao out of the company and headed straight for Jing 'an road. When they arrived, there were only Gu Xiao and his grandmother in the house.
what's wrong? " Wen Qiao looked around. didn't they say he xihuai would be here too? "
Fu Nanli narrowed his eyes. He didn't care if he xihuai was around or not. Why was she asking this?
"He waited for a long time and ran out of patience, so he left."
I'm sorry, " Wen Qiao said. your brother's meeting took too long. I've made you guys wait.
Grandma Gu chuckled. it's fine, it's fine. Mr. Fu's work is more important. We'll be fine. I've heated up these meat dishes and even cooked crayfish. I heard that Mr. Fu has a weak stomach, so I didn't put chili in it.
"Sorry to trouble you," Fu Nanli said courteously.
"It's no trouble at all,"
Wen Qiao placed the cake she was carrying on the table. "Your brother ordered this cake for you."
Actually, Wen Qiao was the one who ordered it, but she had asked for Fu Nanli's opinion on what flavor and how big it should be. Although he appeared a little impatient on the surface, he still patiently gave his opinion.
"Thank you, big brother," Gu Xiao's eyes lit up.
Happy Birthday, " Fu Nanli said indifferently.
Gu Xiao's chest felt a little tight. For so many years, no one remembered his birthday. Brother xihuai had never been a very humane person and did not like to celebrate birthdays, so naturally, he would not buy him a cake.
He should have returned to the country earlier. He really should have returned earlier.
Now, he had his grandmother, his brother, and Wen Qiao by his side.
Warmth was nothing more than this.
While they were having their birthday party, the huge room in the mountain villa was pitch black. Teresa poured a glass of whiskey as he asked and pushed the door open. Some light seeped into the dark night.
"Sir, here's your wine."
He xihuai took the glass and took a sip.
After much hesitation, Teresa asked, " why don't you spend young master's birthday with him over there? "
The man glared at her with a sharp look. Teresa felt a little scared as if there was a dagger on her back.
"You're not doing your job well."
"Yes, sir."
"You knew that I would become like that. Why didn't you follow me at the celebration party?"
"Sir asked me to go to the door to check on the car," said Teresa in a panic.
It was only for a short while, and when she came back, she couldn't find him anywhere.
