Fortunately, it was very quiet outside. But when Xing Shu walked out, she met the eyes of Jiang Yao who was reading a magazine on the couch. Jiang Yao had a lollipop in her mouth. She stared agape at Xing Shu and then at the nap room behind her, as the lollipop instantly fell to the ground. “Xing Shu?!” She stood up as if she had seen a ghost. “Were you sleeping in Young Uncle’s nap room just now?”
Jiang Yao rubbed her eyes again, as if she wanted to confirm if it was a hallucination. Although she knew that Xing Shu had slept with Cheng Lang, she also knew that Cheng Lang was very fastidious and extremely particular about things, especially his possessions. For example, the office was a workplace. Other scions liked to role-play in the office, but Cheng Lang was definitely not such a person.
Jiang Yao took a while to recover before picking up the lollipop on the ground and throwing it into the trash can. She sighed. “I really didn’t expect a day would come when Young Uncle is hiding a woman in the office.”
Xing Shu did not expect anyone to be there and felt very uncomfortable. “Why are you here?”
Jiang Yao sized up Xing Shu and snorted. “It’s my birthday today. I’m here to ask Young Uncle for a birthday gift.”
Xing Shu looked embarrassed. “Really? Happy birthday.”
Jiang Yao sat back on the couch. “Birthdays are boring. The male celebrity I told you about last time became very forward after he learned of my identity. It was not challenging at all. His blatant yearning to climb up the social ladder nauseated me, so I dumped him. In the end, there was no one to accompany me on my birthday. I’m very lonely.”
Xing Shu recalled the gossip between Jin MO and Jiang Yao. However, Jiang Yao and Jin MO did not interact much at Sunset Bar the last time. So, was what Cheng Xingyang said true?
Jiang Yao’s gaze landed on Xing Shu as she said meaningfully, “I wanted to treat you to a drink last time, but you bailed on me. Why don’t you make it up to me today on account of my birthday?”
At Jiang Yao’s words, Xing Shu could not refuse and nodded. Jiang Yao immediately perked up and made a call to book a private room. “The male models in Sunset Bar are the best in the city. You’ll know when you see them.”
Just then, the door of the office was pushed open. Cheng Lang and Jian Yaochuan appeared at the door and heard Jiang Yao’s words.
Jiang Yao quickly stood up and looked up at Cheng Lang, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. “Young Uncle, where’s my birthday gift?” It had not been long since she asked Cheng Lang for pocket money, but she was still as self-righteous as ever. Cheng Lang had never been stingy with her in the past. But this time, he only placed a document on the table and said lightly, “None.”
Jiang Yao froze and took two steps forward. “None? Why? Young Uncle, I haven’t caused any trouble recently. I didn’t even get the male celebrity I wanted to date. I’ve been staying at home obediently for the past two days.” She cried with an aggrieved expression. “You don’t know how bored I’ve been recently. Everyone in the Beijing upper-class circle don’t like me and even spread rumors about me. Cheng Xingyang is the worst! He actually said that I’m like this because of Jin Mo. I’m so aggrieved. Jin MO and I have barely spoken at all!” She pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes and carefully observed Cheng Lang’s expression.
Cheng Lang frowned and was silent for a few seconds before taking out a credit card. “Don’t always spend money on men. If you would get a boyfriend like in a normal relationship, no one would dare to say that about you.”
Jiang Yao put away the credit card and said self-deprecatingly, “Who would dare to date me like in a normal relationship? When they hear my name, they want to poke their eyes out.”
As Xing Shu listened to Cheng Lang and Jiang Yao’s conversation, she finally knew that the rumor between Jiang Yao and Jin MO was fake. With Jiang Yao’s personality, she probably would not like Jin MO’s personality of being able to sacrifice everything for art—Jiang Yao herself lacked a sense of security.
“Young Uncle, I’ll bring Xing Shu out for a drink then. Don’t worry, I won’t invite any male models to join us!” Jiang Yao thought about it and realized that she must have offended Cheng Lang by saying that she wanted to invite male models to join them. Cheng Lang was extremely fastidious and particular about his possessions—the woman he had touched and was still interested in was not to be touched by other men..
