With both hands in the pocket, Qin Fang narrowed his eyes. “Go and ask Gu Si to come over.”

“Yes.” The instructor turned around sternly and ran toward Gu Si.

Qin Fang watched as the kid crawled up from the ground and turned his body towards him before nudging the brim of his hat. The move reminded him of Gu Mang’s carefree att.i.tude.

Upon noticing Qin Fang, Gu Si strutted towards him.

Donning a set of special custom-made black camouflage, he looked small yet cool.

“Why are you looking for me?” Gu Si rolled down his sleeves as he looked at him.

Qin Fang looked down and raised his eyebrows. “Your sister is holding her 18th birthday party tonight. She asked me to fetch you.”

Gu Si paused for a moment. It was true that her ident.i.ty card indicated that she would be turning 18 years old at midnight, but how could the date written on that ident.i.ty card be true?

“Let’s go. Why are you still standing there like a fool?” Bewildered, Qin Fang stared at him.

Gu Si snapped out of his thoughts and processed what he had just heard. Then, he glared at Win Fang and raised his chin fiercely. “You are the fool!”

The corner of Qin Fang’s lips twitched. He tilted his head with arms crossed. “Are you leaving or not?”

“Yes! Let me change my clothes.” After Gu Si finished speaking, he turned around and dashed over to his hostel. He was obviously very excited.

After all, the number of times his Sister thought of him was few and far between.

…

At 7.30p.m., Lu Chengzhou’s car pulled over at the Starlight Plaza carpark.

After getting out of the car, they walked over to the lift dedicated to World Restaurant. They b.u.mped into Meng Jinyang and Jiang Shenyuan who were standing by the lift.

“Lawyer Jiang.” Looking at the two of them, Gu Mang narrowed her eyes and asked indifferently, “Why are you here?”

Smiling, Jiang Shenyuan lifted her arm and pressed the lift b.u.t.ton. “How could I not attend your 18th birthday party?”

Lu Chengzhou greeted Jiang Shenyuan while holding a cigarette between his well-defined fingers.

With raised eyebrows, Gu Mang put her arm on Meng Jinyang’s shoulder. As her hand dangled freely, the red hair tie on her slender and fair wrist seemed especially conspicuous.

Standing with an improper and wobbly posture, she whispered into Meng Jinyang’s ear, “Gu Si will be here later.”

Upon hearing what she had said, Meng Jinyang’s eyes widened slightly. She looked at her. “Gu Si will be coming too?”

Gu Mang nodded before she took out two pieces of chocolate from her pocket and pa.s.sed one to her.

After accepting it, Meng Jinyang removed the wrapper and stuffed it into her mouth. She smiled. “It has been so long since I’ve seen him.”

The last time she saw Gu Si was last year’s Chinese New Year.

Before the lift could arrive, another person appeared.

“Young Master Lu. Lawyer Jiang.” A man’s voice rang out from behind them.

They turned around and saw Ji Heng approaching them with car keys in one hand and a black gift bag in another.

“Lan Ting’s President is here too.” Jiang Shenyuan smiled and greeted Ji Heng.

Ji Heng pa.s.sed the gift to Gu Mang. “Happy birthday a few hours in advance.”

Gu Mang nodded and received it. “Thanks.”

Just as they finished exchanging words, they noticed Qin Rui and Qin Yaozhi walking over from the carpark.

“Sister Mang.” Qin Yaozhi looked at Gu Mang gleefully and gave her the gift she had prepared. “Happy birthday.”

Gu Mang removed her arm from Meng Jinyang’s shoulder. Standing casually, she took the gift, thanked her, and tossed a chocolate to Qin Yaozhi as well.

After catching it with both hands, Win Yaozhi’s removed the wrapper and ate it.

“Ms. Gu.” Qin Rui greeted her rather respectfully as she pa.s.sed Gu Mang the gift she had brought.

This attracted the attention of Jiang Shenyuan and the others.
