บท 499: Chapter 499: Ah Gui Asks, Is It Possible?

Counting down to midnight, everyone gathered around a five-tiered cake.

Ah Gui stood by Ying Yue's side, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match, quite a sight for sore eyes.

Ye Xi stared at them, somewhat puzzled—was all this really necessary?

If there was genuine affection, wouldn't going to bed together happen naturally? Why resort to such schemes?

Most importantly, that Ying Yue would use such tactics was simply too... unbelievable.

As "Happy Birthday" began, everyone counted down from ten. In the final second, Ying Yue's face bloomed into a smile, her hands pressed together, she closed her eyes to make a wish, and then opened them again—her eyes full of stars—and blew out the candles.

Thunderous applause broke out as Ying Yue made the first cut into the cake.

Everyone raised their glasses to wish Ying Yue a happy birthday.

Meanwhile, someone brought over two glasses of wine—one for Ying Yue and one for Ah Gui.
