Gu Qingyao stared at her own handbag for a long time, she lightly closed her eyes, then stood up and walked out.

Xiao Ze was at a loss at what to do at the door.

He knew how much Gu Qingyao valued her birthday, so he invited people to design everything inside, even adding on some soft clothing, and also took into account Li Muyan's previous decorations. Everything was just for the sake of giving him a surprise.

But Li Muyan had come, and sat there for less than half an hour. He did not even serve any food, and he just left like that.

"Miss, then the fireworks …" Xiao Ze hesitated, but still asked softly.

"Let it go." Gu Qingyao laughed, as if nothing had happened.

Xiao Ze did not say much and only nodded: "Okay."

"Oh right, tell the chef that there's no need to be busy." Gu Qingyao thought for a while, then said: "Let's go back earlier."

"Young mistress..." Xiao Ze caught up to him and waved his hand, signalling the waiter to quickly go to the kitchen area, then quickly followed Gu Qingyao.

The calmer Gu Qingyao appeared, the more uneasy he felt. There were a lot of words stuck between his lips, but he couldn't put it into words.

Miss, Mr. Li did not do it on purpose.

"I know." Gu Qingyao was startled, but then smiled. "Don't worry, I'm not angry at Mr. Li."

Gu Qingyao said in a soft and gentle voice, "Mr. Li is but a sentence, and I'm being too flamboyant."

Now that he thought about it, maybe Li Muyan had just asked casually, but he had done so much to prepare for it.

Sometimes, Gu Qingyao also couldn't help but think that what she was actually doing right now was exactly the same as what she had done to Yue Jingfeng all those years ago.

What he said was just a deal. What he shouldn't have done was to lose his heart during this period.

Gu Qingyao lowered her eyes and chuckled: "Go home."

Xiao Ze could not help but look towards Gu Qingyao. She hesitated for a good while, but still did not speak.

Gu Qingyao was a little surprised that Gu Qingyao returned so early.

"Didn't Xiao Yao say he would not return until ten o'clock today?" Nian Wanru could not help but ask.

Gu Qingyao laughed: Yeah, coincidentally, Mr. Li has something urgent, so I came back first.

"Oh," Nian Wanru didn't think much of it and said with a smile, "Then why don't we come over for dinner? In the evening, we cooked a pot of soup and used the chicken that we used in the countryside. It was very delicious. "

"Alright." Gu Qingyao laughed, and touched her stomach.

He was so hungry that he didn't even react. It was as if his senses had become sluggish along with him.

Nian Wanru looked at Gu Qingyao's face, helped to scoop up the soup, and said gently: "Xiao Yao, Mr. Li is usually very busy, although he might have agreed to it this time, but in case something goes wrong like this happens."

Gu Qingyao was startled, and then she realized that Nian Wanru was trying to enlighten her.

She lowered her eyes and smiled before nodding in agreement. "I know."

"Mn, it's good that you understand. There will be many such things in the future, so don't take it to heart." Nian Wanru thought for a moment, then added, "But ah … "There will always be people in this world who will come to you after all difficulties have been eliminated. At that time, you will know that it is the right person."

Gu Qingyao drank a mouthful of soup, the chicken soup was extremely fragrant, it had clearly been boiling for a long time, making the essence come out.

Nian Wanru's tone was very calm, but Gu Qingyao felt that her tears had almost rolled in her eyes.

That's right...

If he missed it once, how could he miss it again?

It was too hard, too hard.

She didn't want to feel that kind of pain again.

Gu Qingyao laughed and took a deep breath: "It tastes really good."

"Hmm, let's drink more if it tastes good. Is everything going smoothly at the company today?"

After chatting with Nian Wanru for a while and watching TV with her, Gu Qingyao slowly walked up the stairs.

The clock went around and it was already past ten.

She hesitated as she opened her phone and dialed Li Muyan's number. She wanted to maintain their cooperation, but she couldn't get involved.

She considered her wording and deleted and modified it, but in the next second, a text message popped out —

"Are you asleep? I'm sorry to bother you at this time. "

Gu Qingyao quickly deleted what she had just typed and sent them over: "Not yet, happy birthday!"

"Thank you, I'm downstairs, is it convenient for Miss Gu to come down?"

Gu Qingyao suddenly jumped up.

She pulled open the curtains and indeed, she saw Li Muyan's car parked downstairs. Li Muyan leaned on the door of the car and stood up.

Gu Qingyao was stunned, she did not even have time to reply, as she grabbed her bag and jacket and rushed downstairs.

She opened the door and looked towards Li Muyan, blinking his eyes, "Why are you here at this time?"

"I'm sorry about what happened today." Li Muyan looked at Gu Qingyao and said seriously.

Gu Qingyao was slightly stunned, she shook her head and said: "Nothing … I don't take it to heart. "

"I'll bring you something as an apology." Li Muyan laughed and passed the thing in his hand over.

It was a small paper bag. Gu Qingyao opened it to take a look, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's the French Almond School."

"Hmm, I remember that you said before that I like it too. I asked Paul to make a serving for me, and I just went over to get it." Li Muyan's eyes were filled with a smile.

Before he had met Gu Qingyao, he had never known that he would also remember this matter to the bottom of his heart, to make people happy. But now, after seeing Gu Qingyao's relieved expression, he suddenly felt that all of this was worth it.

He did not want to see the look in Gu Qingyao's eyes when he was about to leave the restaurant. That look which was trying his best to hide his disappointment made Li Muyan's heart ache.

"Fireworks..." I saw it too, thank you. " Li Muyan said seriously.

He didn't say that this was the first time someone had set off so many fireworks for his sake, as if they could illuminate the night of Seahold.

"As long as Mr. Li likes it." Gu Qingyao's eyes lit up again, as though she had suddenly thought of something. She hurriedly took out a small, exquisite data disc from her bag: "This is for you."

"This is …"

"And this." Gu Qingyao smiled and handed over the card in her hand: Thank you.

"I've said it before, there's no need to rush this..."

"Not all of them. I've just sold a share of the stock recently. Now, I just happen to be able to get one million yuan back, so I'll just treat it as a proof." Gu Qingyao smiled and said: "At least I can give you some confidence."

Li Muyan slightly froze for a moment, the corner of his mouth curved slightly upwards: "I have always been very confident in you."

It was clearly a very ordinary sentence, but Gu Qingyao felt as if her face had started to heat up along with it.

"Thank you." Gu Qingyao said softly, "These are some data that I have analyzed. They contain an analysis of the trends in China's overall financial situation in the future and most importantly, the national trend of his real estate as well as the target groups, I think … It may be useful to the future direction of the Li family.
