“Liu Lan, what are you thinking about?” asked the deputy sales manager. “Why are you smiling?”

“You, Meimei, and I are the three golden flowers of the sales department. Why are we still single?” asked Liu Lan.

Ranran laughed as she wrapped her arms around Liu Lan’s shoulder. “So, you want to get married too? If only marriages were like what the boss and his wife have…

“I’m quite envious of Lin Wan. Mr. Li is usually so serious with us. We never saw him smile. Ever since he appeared in that show, he has become a completely different person.” Liu Lan recalled watching Li Yanchen looking at Lin Wan with a gaze full of affection.

“It seems like there is no such thing as a cold and aloof person in the world. It’s just a matter of who he wants to be warm and affectionate with,” said Ranran. She thought Liu Lan was just envious of the type of relationship their boss and Lin Wan had. Little did she know that Liu Lan was actually jealous of Lin Wan.

“Madam is about to arrive. Please be quiet.” Everyone fell silent. They turn to look at the main door.

Li Yanchen’s car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. He opened the car door and walked around to help Lin Wan out.

The two walked forward, and their sons followed behind. The family’s arrival made all the flowers and fancy decorations appear pale in comparison.

To match their outfits, Li Yanchen had picked out a black shirt.

In the past, Lin Wan had always worn a mask when she went to Chenxin. She would only take it off when she was in the president’s office. This was probably a rare occasion where she appeared with exquisite makeup and revealed her full face.

After entering through the revolving door, Lin Wan saw that the hall looked like a maple forest. There were beautifully crafted maple trees. The walls were covered in maple leaves. The words “Happy Birthday!” stood out.

Lin Wan’s parents had never told her about the reason behind her name. Once, she had gone hiking with Yang Ruoxi up a mountain that had beautiful maple trees. She had asked if her name was somehow taken from a line of a poem called “Mountain Travel” where the persona says, “I stop the carriage, loving the maple wood in the evening.”

Lin Wan didn’t know. She had no way of verifying it. All her family members were long gone by then.

Li Yanchen had considered everything. He had prepared all this for her! She placed a kiss on his lips. “Thank you,” she said.

The venue was decorated in pink, which was her favorite color. The hall was decorated in a motif that matched her name. She realized Li Yanchen had thought long and hard and put so much effort into her birthday.

“I finally know why my parents left me. My grandmother passed away early as well. I became an orphan at a young age. All my luck from all the misery was accumulating to make it possible for me to meet you.” Lin Wan held Li Yanchen’s hand tightly.

“Enter.” The host reminded them.

After reining in her emotions, Lin Wan smiled and walked into the main room with Li Yanchen. The tables were already filled with people. “Madam is so beautiful. She’s definitely a celebrity!” “Kiss!” someone shouted from the crowd. The other joined in.

“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” Their voices rang out.

There were around three hundred people gathered here. Li Yanchen looked at Lin Wan. She looked embarrassed.

Everyone raised their phones to record. “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!”

Lin Wan stood up on the tips of her toes and planted a kiss on his lips. Li Yanchen was momentarily shocked. Then, he deepened the kiss.

Li Yanchen had never imagined Lin Wan would actually kiss him in front of so many people. He was euphoric. He didn’t know how to express his happiness. “These rowdy people…’

Everyone thought that he might get angry at them for making a commotion. They fell silent.

To their surprise, Li Yanchen chuckled. “Secretary Han, whoever kicked up this fuss should get a gift packet from me.”

Even those who hadn’t caused a commotion stood up, claiming to have done it. Lin Wan was perplexed. Couldn’t Li Yanchen see all of them had their phones up in the air? Everyone was either recording or taking their photos, and he was encouraging them!

“Madam, don’t be shy! Kiss him!” They shouted again.

This time, Lin Wan was too embarrassed. She blushed and lowered her head. Li Yanchen lifted her chin and kissed her.

Then he turned to the crowd. “Quit it now, unless you want your salaries deducted.”

Li Yanchen couldn’t keep joking around for fear that Lin Wan might get annoyed.

“Please enjoy the projection,” said the host.

Unlike the photos that were hung at home, there was a loop of photos and videos projected here. These were new photos. Some photos showed her asleep.

A voice narrated something as the photos flashed past. It was Li Yanchen’s voice. In front of everyone, he expressed his love for Lin Wan without hesitation.

Assistant Qin was on the verge of tears. When he found out that his boss was living with another person’s identity, he was appalled. He was heartbroken to know that he was even taking care of three children who weren’t his own. But now, he was so glad to see his boss finally happy in his life.

Assistant Qin also felt guilty for thinking that Lin Wan was just after his money.

Secretary Han patted Assistant Qin’s shoulder. “Old Qin, don’t hold back your tears.”

Assistant Qin wiped his eyes and turned to Secretary Han. “We should put more effort into the company in the future so that the boss can have some time off with his family.”

After the photos and videos were done, Li Zexin walked up to the stage and gave a speech. He first wished Lin Wan.

“We all lacked love in the past. Not just me. My brothers and my father, too,” he said. “Ms. Lin once said that the dead become a star and watch over us. I know she just said it to comfort us. It’s just make-believe. I don’t have many memories of my mother. I rarely even look up at the stars. But with Ms. Lin in our house, I realized that the star was right in front of me all along.”

Xia Mots tears blurred her vision. She had met Lin Wan’s family on the variety show. She had seen the changes in that family with her own eyes.

“Well said!” shouted Xia Mo.

Lin Wan teared up as she listened to Li Zexin’s speech. ‘Why is this brat being so sweet in front of so many people?’

She pulled at Li Yanchen’s sleeve. He understood.

“Our family is full of stars. After all, we are a big family with many talents. Thank you so much for all of your love and support. I hope you enjoy yourselves today. I don’t have many talents, but I can sing a song for all of you.”

The room fell deathly silent.

“Brother Li, please spare us,” said Xiao Tianlin. “Please remember, we are all friends here today, not enemies.” The room erupted in laughter..
