100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 171 Not an Outsider_1
Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Not an Outsider_1
"How could all of you be here..."
Gong Xiaoqiao glanced at the large birthday cake on the coffee table, wondering if she was dreaming?
The cake was actually shaped like a red fox’s head. Where would you normally find a cake looking like such a ghastly thing?
"Little Fox, you’re finally back! We’ve been waiting for you so long, it’s been torture!" Shen Letian got up, propping himself on Tang Yu, and seeing Gong Xiaoqiao looking at the cake, he chuckled, "Heh, how about that, the cake has style, right? It’s made from the design I drew!"
Gong Xiaoqiao: "..."
Alright! She wasn’t dreaming!
Gong Xiaoqiao apologetically looked at everyone, "Sorry, I didn’t know you were all waiting for me..."
Tang Yu, still groggy, rubbed his eyes, "That’s the whole point! If you knew, it wouldn’t be a surprise!"
Shen Letian saw her looking down, a remorseful expression on her face, but although they had waited so long, he had let it go, "Colleagues celebrating your birthday shows how popular you are! Let them have their moment first, what does it matter if we’re a bit late, we’re not outsiders anyway!"
Gong Xiaoqiao blew out the candles, made a wish, and suddenly felt incredibly happy - this year she had made two wishes for her birthday.
After that, Tang Yu immediately drooled over the cake, "Can we eat now? I’m so hungry!"
Once they got the birthday girl’s approval, Tang Yu eagerly grabbed the knife and fork to start, only to feel an intimidating gaze bearing down on him.
Why was the boss looking at him with such a scary gaze, had he said something wrong?
Shen Letian glanced at where Tang Yu was about to cut, which just so happened to be the little fox cake’s mouth, made from cherries.
"Tang Yu, you can’t just eat the cake anyhow!" Shen Letian mentioned ominously.
Tang Yu somehow caught on and quickly, timidly passed it to Gu Hangshen, "Hehe, Boss, you eat!"
Tang Yu stared at the cake for a long time; he honestly didn’t know where to begin cutting. He daren’t eat from anywhere!
That damn Shen Letian, what was he thinking making the cake look like that! How could anyone eat it now!
In the end, it was Gong Xiaoqiao, with a speechless look on her face, who sliced the cake into pieces and handed them out.
Looking at the time, it seemed too late for any other activities, so after the celebration, everyone prepared to head home.
"Xiaoqiao, do you want a ride? I’m going the same way," Leng Tou offered.
On a normal day, Leng Tou would never dare to steal such an opportunity from Gu Hangshen, but today he spoke up.
Leng Jing immediately looked at Leng Tou with gratitude. No matter the reason for his offer, now she could have a good chat with Xiaoqiao in the car.
"Ahem, well..." Gong Xiaoqiao hesitated, unsure of how to explain.
"No need," Gu Hangshen answered for her and then, under Gong Xiaoqiao’s pleading gaze, he said, "She’s staying here tonight."
"Uh..."
For a moment, all the people present were stunned.
"Ahem, he’s joking," Gong Xiaoqiao said with an embarrassed laugh.
"You’re my wife. If not here, where else would you plan to sleep?" Gu Hangshen looked at her.
At that statement, Gong Xiaoqiao felt utterly hopeless and covered her face with her hands in resignation.
"Uh, you guys..." Shen Letian’s face was full of shock as he timidly asked, wanting to gossip yet not daring to.
"We registered our marriage yesterday," Gu Hangshen answered without any hesitation.
The others were all stunned to silence, taking a long time to process the news.
"Ahem, congratulations!"
"Is that so," Leng Tou said nonchalantly.
Leng Jing, however, seemed to think of something, looking astonishedly at Gu Hangshen. Could he be the legendary peerless beauty, the fox spirit mentioned by Nana?
