However, he soon realized that Pei Huai was not interested in eating or drinking. It was very difficult to talk to him, and there was an awkward silence.

After Su Ji’s departure, Pei Huai seemed to have really turned into Nicha Songpashan.

He could tell that Su Ji asked si Jingchuan to hold him back.

Therefore, although he didn’t show any interest in Si Jingchuan’s conversation, he didn’t leave early.

He was unhappy, but he would give his girlfriend some space.

Just like that, CEO Pei was very approachable in the eyes of the staff. They also thought that he empathized with the employees.

He stayed with them until 11 p.m. before returning to the hotel.

When they returned to the hotel, the staff knew that he was the one staying in Room 606.

Someone teased Ms. Feng, “now, do you still dare to complain that someone is staying in Room 606?”

Ms. Feng nervously glared at the man and lowered her voice. “Don’t talk nonsense. When did I complain? Are you trying to get me killed?”

Pei Huai wasn’t interested. He nodded slightly and glanced at Su Ji’s tightly shut door before swiping his card to return to his room.

He thought that Su Ji had already gone to bed, but when he came out of the shower, he heard the sound of a card being swiped in the room next door.

He raised his wrist to look at the time.

23:42.

Where did she go so late at night?

Pei Huai frowned.

He tied his bathrobe and walked to the door. He opened the door and wanted to ask where she went.

However, he almost crashed into a figure.

Su Ji happened to be carrying something into his room.

Fortunately, the two of them were agile, so they didn’t bump into each other.

Pei Huai lowered his eyes and saw that she was holding a small paper plate in her hand.

There was a flat pastry on it, and two candles were on top of it.

Birthday cake?

He took a closer look.

No, it was a banana prata, folded into a square.

Su Ji smiled. “I couldn’t get a cake, this looks almost the same. Is that okay?”

The soundproofing here was not good, and there was a lot of noise in the corridor.

Pei Huai pulled her into his room and closed the door with his other hand, locking it from the inside.

“Did you leave early to buy a pancake?”

Su Ji’s expression was serious. “Call it a birthday cake. ”

Pei Huai took the paper tray and his eyes softened. “I like this birthday cake very much.”

Su Ji checked how people celebrated their birthdays in the modern era and pulled Pei Huai to sit at the table.

Pei Huai was still wearing a bathrobe. The water droplets on the side of his neck flowed down his collarbone and into the cotton bathrobe.

The cake was placed between the two of them.

Pei Huai took out his phone and took several pictures of this very special birthday cake.

Those from the Pei Corporation would never have thought that one day, their CEO would also take photos of food before eating.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that there were more than twenty photos of that cake. It was taken with and without the lights on, with and without the candles, and with different lighting and angles.

Everything was perfect, except for the two numbered candles on the cake.

“30”

It was very heart-wrenching.

Later, his phone ran out of battery and he shut it down.

Su Ji wanted to sing him a birthday song, but Pei Huai told her to wait.

Then, he took out a recording pen from the drawer. “Go on, sing.”

“...”

He was lucky it was his birthday.

After singing the birthday song, Pei Huai closed his eyes and made a wish.

It was Su Ji’s first time celebrating someone’s birthday in the modern era. She was also very excited as she sat opposite him and hosted the event.

Pei Huai’s face and eyes were like a perfect piece of art.

When he opened his eyes, Su Ji asked curiously, “what wish did you make? ”

Pei Huai said, “I wish that we...”

We?

Su Ji had a feeling that he’s going to say something mushy, so she covered his mouth. “I almost forgot. You can’t say it aloud, otherwise it won’t come true.”

Pei Huai chuckled and kissed her finger before letting it go. “What should we do next?”

He never cared about birthdays.

However, at the moment, he was very interested in celebrating his birthday.

Su Ji thought for a moment. “It’s time to blow out the candles and cut the cake.”

Neither of them looked at the time, but the moment Pei Huai blew out the candle, the clock on his mobile phone showed 00:00.

Without a knife, Su Ji pulled out the candle and tore the cake in half.

He gave the bigger half to Pei Huai.

This birthday was already very unforgettable, but as he was with Su Ji, Pei Huai wanted more.

Pei Huai asked, “do you have a gift for me?”

Su Ji thought that the birthday cake was a gift, but Pei Huai’s words clearly meant otherwise.

She didn’t want to disappoint him on his birthday.

The corner of Su Ji’s mouth twitched, “yes…”

However, Pei Huai’s eyes flickered. “Really? What is it?”

Seeing his anticipation, Su Ji could no longer say “my love for you.”

“It’s in my room. Wait for me. I’ll go get it.”

Then, she unlocked the door and ran back to her room.

She closed the door and looked around the room.

What could she give Pei Huai as a gift?

She glanced at the disposable slippers, bed sheets, toothbrush, and towel.

Pei Huai probably had all of these things in his room.

She opened her suitcase, revealing her clothes, shoes, and anti-mosquito spray. However, when she looked to the side, she saw a scroll stuffed at the side of the suitcase.

It was Pei Huai’s portrait!

That’s it!

She had to bear the pain and part with it!

She picked up the painting and went next door.

This time, she didn’t enter but stood at the door.

The painting was placed in Pei Huai’s hands, and she said with a slightly guilty tone, “this is your birthday present.”

For some reason, Pei Huai felt a profound and strange feeling the moment he touched the painting.

He suppressed that feeling and looked at Su Ji lovingly. “Did you paint it?”

“I…got someone to draw it!”

She turned around and returned to her room. “I’ll take you to a nice place tomorrow night!”

Pei Huai chuckled.

Back in the room, he sat back on the bed.

He looked at the scroll in his hand.

There was a birthday cake, a birthday present, and a mysterious plan for tomorrow.

This was the best birthday Pei Huai had ever celebrated.

That feeling was getting stronger by the day.

He had been looking for Su Ji for a long time.

It must have begun in the great Shang dynasty.

But who was he then?

And who was Su Ji?

As Pei Huai thought of this, his gaze fell on the birthday present.

He opened the painting and his pupils dilated.

In the painting, he was dressed in an ancient costume.
