Chapter 64

"Xi'an, you didn't sleep well yesterday?" Liu Tao asked concernedly when seeing the haggard look of Sheng Xi'an.

"Hmm, a little bit," Sheng Xi'an replied with a nod.

Without any rest all night long, it would be a wonder if she still looked beaming.

After she prepared all the things for the party well and made sure that everything was in order, she returned to Star Moon Bay quite late. Although she was very sleepy, she did not go to bed, instead, she hurriedly prepared a birthday gift for Huo Shaoting so that she could give it to him in person on his birthday today.

"Then, would you like a cup of coffee?" Liu Tao took out a pouch of instant coffee from her drawer and said, "It just so happens that I bought a box today."

"No thanks." Sheng Xi'an shook her head and replied, "It's getting late. I'll go upstairs to clean first."

"Sure." At the thought of the President, Liu Tao could not help cautioning her, "Take care. Don't displease the President again."

"I won't."

Sheng Xi'an took the cleaning supplies straight to the 38th floor, along with the bank card that Huo Shaoting had given her. Even if he was willing to buy things for her, she had to know her place, so the card should be returned to him after all.

Despite her poor rest last night, she did not feel very tired today. She was very excited about the party tonight and actually hoped time could go faster. For his birthday, she would not only give him a gift, but also throw him a party. Even though he would not fall for her, at least they could get along better afterward.

When she got off the elevator, only a new secretary was seen in the secretary's office. The rest should be in a meeting elsewhere.

That was why she did not knock before going into Huo Shaoting's office, thinking that he had to be in some meeting as well.

As expected, no one was in the office. Curling her lips, she closed the door and walked toward the desk.

After taking his bank card out of her pocket, she was going to put it on the desk but heard a voice ring out...

"You finally came."

"..." Being shocked, Sheng Xi'an froze for a while before she stared at the place where the voice came from, with her brain buzzing.

"You didn't expect me back, did you? It's your birthday today." As Huo Shaoting's executive chair opposite Sheng Xi'an slowly turned around, the person in that chair said, "Shaoting, do you like this surprise I... Xi'an?"

Looking at Yu Muyu in front of her, Sheng Xi'an managed to collect herself after a long while. "Sister Muyu," she called her with a faint yet quivering voice.

"Yu Muyu is back?"

At this moment, lots of thoughts crossed her mind. She felt awkward and also lost her bearings, like the other woman meeting the wife, without a slight bit of confidence. All she could do was put her tail between her legs.

She had been happy a moment ago, but now, she felt like cold water had been poured on her, faintly uncomfortable.

"Xi'an, long time no see." Yu Muyu was stunned briefly, then she put a soft smile on her face.

She was prettier than she had been three years ago, and her physique became more attractive as well. Her entire being was glowing, and she was so radiant and dazzling, especially when she smiled.

"Yeah." Sheng Xi'an managed to form a smile, which she knew was ugly without needed to look at herself in a mirror.

"Are you here to find Shaoting?" As soon as she raised the question, she seemed to notice Sheng Xi'an's clothes. Full of surprise, she asked, "Xi'an, why are you wearing..." Yet without finishing her sentence, she glanced around and found the cleaning supplies not far away.

Sheng Xi'an clenched her fists so tightly that the bank card in her hand was nearly snapped in half. She replied to her, "I work in Fuen now."
