"I wanted to make fun of her, but damn girl!... Looking at her now, I don't think if we even need to put any efforts to do that hahaha!"
"Right! She's embarrassing herself much more than we ever can! Though I wish she likes our present!"
"But before doing that, what about we feast upon the tasty meal served over the counter...., what do you say Miss Xiao?"
"I totally agree Miss Song!"
As Song Lin suggested, Xiao Jane herself wanted to satisfy their stomachs with tasty before picking up on that Demoness. She pulled her hands and got her way to the menu section.
'My stomach! Here's my peace offering!'
Song Lin smiled crazily and grabbed the pudding plate like a starving tigress. Xiao Jane couldn't help but feel hungry too
' I guess it's the effect of seeing others enjoying their food'. She, too, started taking small bites of the pudding and other meals.
"Oh the great Demoness! I love you! Although it must be a kind of show off, but I gladly would come to every expensive parties you might throw in the future!" Xiao Jane spoke; her mouth filled with strawberry dessert. Song Lin licked her fingers and grinned sheepishly.
Many people at the party were staring at them, including Han Zuana. She felt proud,
'Now they will know that I'm no low shot!They must feel grateful that I invited them to such an important party! They have no idea what kind of people are coming today!'
In the similar accords, they were grateful, but in another way and for different reason.
Many wealthy men were trying to get their attention, but they prioritised food over them. They have been to many parties all these years but this remained constant. Food over boys.
They had filled themselves upto their limits. Now they had the energy to deal with the birthday girl. They cleaned their hands and lip corners with the help of tissue papers and went to restroom.
After getting themselves cleaned, they hurriedly moved back to the centre of the hallroom.
"Let's meet our birthday girl now!" Song Lin sneered looking at Han Zuana's direction.
"Let me call and get the gift prepared first, Lin Lin! Empty handed guests are no less than freeloaders!" Xiao Jane replied and dialed a number.
.

"On it's way! Good! We're expecting you on time! Do not forget your royal destination; Rose Royalty! Hurry up!" she ordered her last words and hunged up.
"Let's celebrate birthday!!! Woo hoo!!!!" Song Lin cheered and both of them went towards Han Zuana.
She was standing just above the stairs. Her eyes were fine but she had messed with her eyeliner. It was way too heavy; one could think how she's even managing to keep her eyes open.
Song Lin never considered herself as some great make-up expert or anything, but her instincts were clearly telling her that she had boomed her face with blast powder. The difference in the colour of the skin of her face and her neck was truly unbelievable.
The friends tagging along her were laughing behind her back, but flashed wide smiles in front of her. Xiao Jane felt pity for Han Zuana.
"Hey Demon-.... I mean Happy birthday my sweet Ana! Look how explosive your face looks! Are you planning to set fire in our hearts girl?" Song Lin's zigzag words confused Han Zuana but she smiled like an idiot.
'God I'm sorry....but she's really...hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!?'
Song Lin's face was straight, but she knew her 'Laugh Out Loud Lin' effect is about to occur. Her lips were trembling as she faced Xiao Jane, who was fighting the similar urge to laugh at dumb Demoness brain of hers.
She edged two girls from her side and made her way to praise the Demoness herself.
She looked at her from tip to toe; flickering her eyes in disbelief. Han Zuana took this act of Xiao Jane as a hint of appreciation for her beautiful look, as per she.
Song Lin winked at her when Xiao Jane finally opened her mouth, "Oh my gosh! Ana! You're looking so beautiful! Trust me, not for a moment my eyes missed your extraordinary sight!!"
Listening to their words, Han Zuana couldn't help but be at ninth cloud. She tried hard to hide her extremely flushed face; flipping her hair backwards, with a little attitude she replied,
"Well, finally you guys got to know who's the boss here!"
"Sure Demo- I mean who else can be better than you Ana!" Song Lin tapped her shoulders.
Xiao Jane turned back to look at the door as she smiled at what she saw. She held Han Zuana's hands and said, "So princess Ana! We have a superb gift for you! So please close your eyes while I go and fetch that surprise birthday gift of yours, okay!"
Song Lin moved forward and made Han Zuana close her eyes with her very own hands, covering them. While Xiao Jane walked towards the entrance, a devilish smile about to break her composed character.
.
.
"I'm glad you're on time! So let's go Mr. Gift!"
She said and dragged the man carefully towards the stairs. When they finally reached upstairs, Song Lin's face glowed up. She whispered softly into Han Zuana's ears,
"Okay darling! Here's your gift!" and as Demoness opened up her eyes, her facial expressions became nastier than ever.
"Surprise! Here's your birthday gift Ana!" Song Lin shouted as her other fly friends also turned their faces in their direction.
In front of her was standing Peng Ru, a nerd creepy guy who used to like and follow Han Zuana when they were in high school. He was holding a bouquet full of chrysanthemums.
He can be described as a classic spectacled guy but with sticky hair and creepy smile. He wasn't particularly handsome, but had a decent built for a man.
Xiao Jane and Song Lin were not the only people who knew about his distasteful crush. And that's why every next gaze falling upon him, recognised him instantly.
It was not a pre- planned scheme or trope. They just happened to find him before her birthday when Guan told them about his friend circle. He happens to be at the same basketball team as Xiao Guan. So when they got the chance, they made Guan ask him; knowing he would never refuse if it's an invitation for Han Zuana's birthday party.
"Happy birthday Ana!" he said as he smiled and offered her the flower bouquet.
Han Zuana felt disgusted at his sight and wanted to slap him in front of everyone but due to abundant gazes piercing her existence, she couldn't ruin her image. She had no other option.
She had to accept the flowers. Her other friends started laughing and gossiping now that Peng Ru had arrived. She felt betrayed by the actions of her own friends. They were HER friends but why were they acting in favor of her rivals.
Song Lin clapped raising her hands and pushed Peng Ru at her, "I hope you liked our gift Zu-Ana!" she wishpered.
"And...Enjoy!" Xiao Jane finished the sentence, and their surprise.
They turned to take their leave. Han Zuana stepped forward to pull their arms.
"Stop you-"
Unfortunately, Peng Ru's leg came in between them; hindering her legs as she lost her balance and fell upon the staircase divider.
Both of them turned back instantly to see what just happened in blink of an eye. Xiao Jane felt a little bad for her again, but Song Lin didn't show any pity towards the fallen Demoness. It was rather fortunate that she fell upon her own bad deeds.
Other people present at the party shifted their attention to Han Zuana. Some showed concern but, most of the eyes were mocking her clumsiness.
"Has she no class?"
"What an attention seeker"
"Is she the birthday girl? Really?"
"Who's that weird looking guy beside her? Her boyfriend? What a pity!"
She felt very embarrassed in her own birthday party. She blamed the two girls for everything that happened. Even for her misfortune of a fall.
'You mean sl*ts!! You mocked Me! Now see what this party has in for you, you pieces of garbage! You'll pay you ugly ducks!' she swore as she kicked the ground with her wobbly legs.
Song Lin knows that Zuana's utterly embarrassed and must be swearing at them with her dirt filled mind. Maybe that's why she didn't show her any pity. Their reason for the hate towards her was obvious. Both of them got down, out of the scene.
Peng Ru tried to help Han Zuana to get on her legs properly, but she refused his efforts.
When she tried to stand again, her hills got stuck between the divider gaps of the stairs and, once again her body fell upon the poor stairs.
Song Lin couldn't believe her eyes.
"How can a person be arrogant and careless at the same time?"
And on top of the rotten cheese, she knew that Demoness is probably swearing on them again in her filthy mind, instead of cursing her own actions.
"Some people are really unbelievable! They can't change for better." Xiao Jane said, passing out a soft sigh, witnessing all the drama happening upstairs.
After a while, Xiao Jane looked at Song Lin. Her expressions can tell that she's upto not good.
"What are you thinking?" Xiao Jane asked, stopping her from going upstairs.
"I'm not satisfied!" she smirked looking at Demoness.
