Just when Xia Zijin was on alert, there was a creaking sound and a door was pushed open.
Then, a candlelight lit up.
"Happy birthday to you--"
The birthday blessing song also sounded at this moment, and figures appeared in front of Xia Zijin.
Through the candlelight, she saw that the person holding the cake and singing happy birthday was none other than her best friend Yao Ting, and a smile appeared on Xia Zijin's pretty face.
The group of people clapped their hands and sang happy birthday as they walked slowly to Xia Zijin.
After singing the birthday song, Yao Ting said to Xia Zijin, "Zijin, make a wish quickly!"
"No need."
Xia Zijin was a little uncomfortable with the current situation.
"Of course!"
Yao Ting urged, "Today is your birthday, so of course you have to make a wish. Maybe your wish will come true!"
"Okay, stop grinding and hurry up."
"Okay." Xia Zijin had no choice but to agree, closed his eyes, began to make a wish, and then blew out the candles.
There was a burst of cheers and applause, and the lights came on at this moment.
Xia Zijin could clearly see everyone present.
Wearing a white dress, with eyebrows as curved as crescent moons and a small cherry mouth, although not as stunning as Xia Zijin, Yao Ting is also a great beauty. She held Xia Zijin's arm and said with a smile, "Zijin, this is me and
Are you surprised by the birthday party your friends held for you?"
Xia Zijin smiled and said, "I was shocked at first. There wasn't even a single person here."
"Didn't we agree to have a simple meal? Why did it happen like this?"
"That's not okay. When you were in Jiangcheng, we rarely met each other. Now it's your birthday. As your best friend, of course I have to celebrate it for you!"
"These are all my friends in Jinling. They are all my own people. There is no need to see anyone outside!"
Yao Ting introduced to everyone, "This is my best friend Xia Zijin. I'm not lying to you. Isn't she very beautiful?"
"She is indeed beautiful! She is simply a beauty!"
Everyone's eyes fell on Xia Zijin. Although she was not dressed up carefully, she was still the most dazzling presence among them.
Xia Zijin waved to everyone and said hello, "Hello everyone, please take good care of me in the future!"
"That's right. If Miss Xia needs help in the future, just ask, and I will try my best to help!"
A man wearing an expensive suit walked up to Xia Zijin with a smile.
Yao Ting said to Xia Zijin, "Zijin, let me introduce you solemnly. This is Hu Yinghua, the president of Shen's Jewelry. Not only is he handsome, but he is also rich. He is a well-known young man in Jinling.
Talented, and more importantly, he is still single."
"He also put a lot of thought into decorating this birthday party tonight!"
"Miss Xia, I have always heard Tingting mention you in front of me before. When I saw you today, you are indeed as outstanding as Tingting said."
Hu Yinghua smiled slightly and stretched out her hand to signal, "Miss Xia Zijin, I, Hu Yinghua, am very happy to meet you on such an important day!"
"Mr. Hu, that's too flattering."
Xia Zijin shook hands with him and said, "Don't listen to Tingting's nonsense."
Hu Yinghua held Xia Zijin's hand tightly, a look of satisfaction appeared on her face, and she felt like she couldn't put it down.
Xia Zijin wanted to pull his hand back, but he didn't expect that Hu Yinghua had no intention of letting go, and even stroked the delicate and slender hand.
"Mr. Hu."
Xia Zijin couldn't help but frown.
Hu Yinghua reluctantly let go of her hand and said, "Ms. Xia, you are the birthday girl tonight, so enjoy this birthday party to the fullest."
"Thank you."
Xia Zijin took back her hand and nodded politely, but Hu Yinghua didn't feel very good about her.
"Where's Yu Jing?"
Xia Zijin looked around, but did not see Qin Yujing.
Yao Ting shook her head, "She, she sent me a text message and said she would arrive later. I don't know why she went there."
Then, she whispered to Xia Zijin, "Zijin, this Hu Yinghua is quite good. I think he is a good match for you. Do you want to consider it?"
"he?"
Xia Zijin declined without any hesitation, "I don't have any thoughts about this now and don't want to think about these things."
"You, you, know about work all day long, how is this okay?"
Yao Ting enlightened Xia Zijin, "We women, why do we make ourselves so tired? After all, we still need someone to rely on. Someone will protect you from the wind and rain, and you sit back and enjoy the benefits. This kind of life is not far better than working hard on your own."
Is it comfortable?”
"Life is short, enjoy yourself while you can!"
Xia Zijin disagreed with Yao Ting's view, "No man can be relied on. The only one who can be relied on is himself!"
"Besides, I've registered with others, so others will mind!"
Xia Zijin didn't want to talk too much about this matter, so he directly brought up the matter of registering his marriage with Lu Chen, just to let Yao Ting know that she didn't want to talk about these things.
Yao Ting snorted, "That's just acting. You and that guy are just pretending to be married. They don't even have any physical contact. How can others mind?"
"Zijin, let me tell you, this Hu Yinghua is indeed very good. I hope you can think about it carefully!"
"Okay, I understand, I will think about it."
Xia Zijin didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he could only deal with it vaguely.
Yao Ting winked at Hu Yinghua, and Hu Yinghua immediately understood and came to talk to Xia Zijin with a smile.
But Xia Zijin never took the initiative to talk to her, but acted very perfunctory. This made Hu Yinghua feel like she was hot on the face but cold on the bottom. She felt very unhappy in her heart, but couldn't express it clearly.
Xia Zijin's indifferent performance further inspired Hu Yinghua's determination to capture Xia Zijin.
For a person like him who wanders among flowers, the most important thing around him is women, but for a fierce horse like Xia Zijin, who is difficult to control, he wants to experience it more.
He didn't believe it. Under his strong offensive, Xia Zijin could maintain this attitude all the time.
At this moment, a man and a woman walked in from outside, it was Lu Chen and Qin Yujing.
"Zijin! Tingting!"
After Qin Yujing saw them, she immediately greeted them loudly.
"Yu Jing, why did you go and come so late?"
Yao Ting asked Qin Yujing.
Xia Zijin was just about to speak when he noticed Lu Chen's appearance and was suddenly surprised.
She didn't expect that Lu Chen would also appear here.
"I went to pick up a friend and come with me."
Qin Yujing waved to Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, come here quickly!"
Hearing this name, Yao Ting's face instantly solidified.
Lu Chen walked slowly, came to Xia Zijin, smiled and said, "Zijin, happy birthday!"
"Thanks."
Xia Zijin felt a little embarrassed when he saw Lu Chen, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Yao Ting stared at Lu Chen and said in a strange tone, "Yu Jing, I thought you were going to do something important. Why did you pick him up? Aren't you ruining our Zijin's birthday party?"
