Xiaomeng dressed herself up like a gift and leaped into the large gift box that had been carefully prepared in the private room, ready to surprise Chen Xiang.
A group of people was also waiting noisily for the guest of honor to show up, ready to make a huge scene and take the birthday party to its peak.
However, as everyone waited and waited, Chen Xiang didn't step through the door. When it reached the agreed time, Xiaomeng grew anxious. Not caring about the surprise anymore, she jumped out of the gift box, rummaged through her purse for her phone, and called Chen Xiang.
"Dear, where are you? You didn't forget your own birthday PARTY, did you?"
On the other end of the line, Chen Xiang's voice was very low: "I didn't forget, there's a bit of an emergency."
"Ah? An emergency? What kind of emergency?" Xiaomeng shrieked with worry, "It's not a car accident, is it? Don't scare me!"
Chen Xiang on the other end quickly comforted her: "No, no, don't be so alarmed!"
