Xia Xiaoqiao had a competitive streak that refused to be quenched; she had loved to vie for supremacy since she was young.
Tonight, after seeing Shu Pan, her confidence surged even more.
There's a saying, isn't there, "Those who are near to the water get the moon first"? Opportunities would come.
Of course, a birthday was more than just a meal, and Gu Shaoting also gave Shu Pan a ring.
The style of the ring was incredibly simple and elegant without any surrounding small diamonds; it was just a platinum band with a round diamond deeply embedded in the middle, shining like a star, deep and mysterious, noble and graceful, emitting a soft brilliance under the light.
Most special of all, Gu Shaoting had the ring engraved on the inside with his and Shu Pan's surnames.
Having seen Shu Pan's admirers today, Gu Shaoting felt that his decision to give the ring as a birthday present was extremely wise.
"Do you like it?" Gu Shaoting asked Shu Pan as he opened the jewelry box.
