He Hanjin followed the momentum of the room and turned to see Wen Zhi sitting at the piano bench. After a brief moment of gathering herself, her slender, tender fingers danced across the keyboard.
A melodious tune spread throughout the entire restaurant.
The people present were immersed in the piano music, unable to help themselves.
He Hanjin's eyes softened warmly as he watched Wen Zhi.
At the end of the piece, Wen Zhi accepted a cake from the waiter and walked up to him, her lips curled into a faint smile.
"Happy birthday," she said.
That simple phrase touched He Hanjin's heart deeply.
He had never had anyone prepare his birthday with such care, to the point where even he had forgotten when it actually was.
He had not expected Wen Zhi to remember.
He Hanjin's eyes reddened slightly. He stood up and gazed deeply at Wen Zhi, taking the cake from her and placing it on the table. Then, seizing the moment when Wen Zhi was distracted, he pulled her into his embrace.
