Chapter 49 Birthday Five

  In a strange and eerie silence, Gu Huai Min's cold voice slowly sounded: "I want to give it to the only daughter of the Gu family - Gu Qing."

  A sudden commotion.

  Qiao Yun smiled and pushed me, who had already been stunned, and said softly: "Don't you hurry up and go?"

  The eyes around me began to gather towards me, with surprise, curiosity and onlookers.

  I suddenly calmed down and walked elegantly onto the stage with a composed demeanor, pretending to be confident has always been my strong suit.

  Gu Liu and Gu Chen also walked up in the crowd, I stood beside Gu Huamin, Shen Bi Ru stood on the other side, then there were Gu Liu and Gu Chen standing like two knights on the outermost sides.

  There was a flurry of discussion in the crowd, and I suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention. Most people were sighing regretfully, all regretting not having approached me earlier.

  Among the crowd, Ning Jing and Su Yan stood together, looking up at me with complex emotions in their eyes that I couldn't decipher; Xu Luo Kai was standing among a group of handsome boys, smiling at me; Fang Chao Yang's serious gaze fell on me, and despite being separated by the distant crowd, I felt like there was a hint of regret in his eyes; while Fang Ming Yue looked envious, probably because she envied that I was standing beside Gu Chen.

  Suddenly I felt as if I was far away from them.

  I felt inexplicably downhearted, and when I looked up again, I found myself gazing into a pair of profound eyes.

  The boy standing at the door had a pair of good-looking eyes, like a deep pool that made people sink in, he wore a white shirt, and a suit jacket was casually slung over his left hand, just standing there seemed to suddenly burst out with brilliant fireworks around him.

  An aura so strong it's impossible to ignore.

  In the blink of an eye, that figure had vanished, as if he had never appeared there at all, but I saw him clearly.

  "He's gone." Gu Chen pushed me, who was in a daze, and hummed discontentedly in my ear, "What are you thinking?"

  "No more." I waved my hand and went down with Gu Chen.

  I don't even know what Gu Huai Min said.

  "The second thing is that my eldest son, Gu Liuyi, will soon be engaged to Qiao's second daughter, Qiao Yunge. At that time, I invite everyone to come and celebrate." As soon as Gu Huamin finished speaking, another commotion arose.

  I was stunned, I didn't expect this moment to come so soon.

  Qiao Yunduan smiled and walked onto the stage with ease. Her smile was as bright as a flower, and her eyes sparkled with deep affection as she extended her hand, where a dazzling diamond ring on her middle finger ostentatiously hinted at its presence.

  Gu Liuyi's expression remained unchanged as he stretched out his hand to take over Qiao Yunge's hand, and then slowly intertwined their fingers.

  I subconsciously looked for Su Yan, but no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find her figure. Even Ning Jing's shadow was nowhere to be seen.

  I was worried and wanted to go find them, but Gu Xin suddenly grabbed my wrist and said with some dissatisfaction: "What are you doing? There are so many eyes watching you around, don't make a scene."

  It's not just because of the soft lighting at this moment that I always feel that Gu Chen looks especially gentle at this moment.

  His hand on my wrist slid down lightly, as if unintentionally holding my hand tightly.

  Also means "hand in hand" or "inseparable".

  "Gu Chen, stop it! Let me go!" I hissed in a low voice, my face burning with anger.

  This kind of small action that only couples would do, Gu Chen did it with such familiarity, the temperature transmitted from his fingertips was clearly imprinted on the back of my hand.

  He smiled with a sly and mischievous grin, saying unequivocally: "I don't want to." His eyes sparkled with color, I was taken aback, but he quickly looked away.
