On the busy street, the street lamps in the distance lit up one after another.

A music box began to sing in an unknown place. The fresh voice travelled through the air and spread to the few people present. The tense atmosphere in the room became slightly weaker.

"All these years, I've been walking through a sea of people searching for you. What sea will you be in then?"

"Wow, wow, this is super nice to listen to!"

"Brother Zhang Wei, I love you!" As soon as the words left his mouth, everyone felt that something was wrong. Besides the host on stage, there was nothing else. Where did Lin Changwei come from?

The fans could not help but be infuriated. They shouted at the top of their lungs, the noise so loud that it nearly overturned the roof. The host standing on the stage was drowned out by the crowd's clamor, "Everyone listen to me, Mister Lin Changwei is temporarily unable to come …"

"What's more important than singing?" Everyone was angered. "Brother Zhang Wei doesn't need to accompany his girlfriend!"

The three neon lights flashed onto the host's body. The host in the black suit couldn't help but take out a towel to wipe the sweat off his forehead. This time, he was really screwed …

"Your face is like poison. You linger around every night in the middle of winter …"

She was standing under the plane tree. The shadow cast by the dense foliage hit her right in the face. Even the street lamps could not get rid of the shadow. All eyes were focused on her.

These words almost left the man's mouth as Chen Yinjie almost fell to the ground.

How straightforward was this man? It was one thing to omit the love story, but he actually had the guts to say it out loud. Wasn't he afraid of thunder?

Gu Qingtong pursed his lips. This playful confession made her feel humiliated. "Lin Changwei, today is not April Fools' Day." He had wanted to give Lin Changwei a way out of this predicament, but he decided against it.

Unexpectedly, not far away, the man wearing a black trench coat smiled brightly and said something that was ten times more explosive than what she said. Lin Changwei said in a melodious and melodious voice, "Of course, I know that today is your birthday!"

"Wow!" The gazes of Shang Shaya and Wei Ling became even hotter.

Chen Huo was also somewhat surprised. He strode towards Shu Tong. "Shu Tong, didn't you say …" Is tomorrow your birthday? "

He smiled quietly. His handsome appearance would not arouse the woman's disgust in the slightest, but he was alone.

Gu Shutong's face was slightly pale, and his lips were trembling slightly. Looking at his hands, he suddenly thought of the day that Gu Mingyue had died. Red blood covered the entire ground, and even the tender grass that had just poked its head out was unable to avoid this disaster.

"My birthday …" Gu Shudong mumbled to himself. An indescribable feeling surged through her heart like boiling water. Her chest felt so stuffy that she almost couldn't breathe.

Since Gu Mingyue's death, her birthday had also changed.

But it didn't matter. No one would know anyway.

A leaf slid past her shoulder and slowly fell to the ground, making a nearly inaudible sound.

Gu Shutong suddenly calmed down and slowly raised her head. She heard her own voice saying, "My birthday is tomorrow." With a slight tremble, everyone's gaze turned even more suspicious. Gu Shudong wanted to calm himself down, so he repeated, "My birthday is tomorrow."

The house was quiet, dark, empty.

An open light quickly rendered the darkness. Qin Yan took off his jacket and impatiently responded to the woman on the other end of the phone. However, he didn't dare to be disrespectful in his tone, "Alright, Grandma, I understand."

Truly, Grandma remembered that woman's matter very clearly. He really didn't know how Gu Shudong managed to confuse his grandmother. Even his grandmother didn't like her so much when Mingyue went to find her …

His memories were suddenly interrupted.

Qin Yan pursed his lips. His grandmother seemed to notice her grandson's uneasiness and hung up the phone without saying anything else.

There was no one in the living room, so Gu Shudong should be upstairs.

Just as he was about to go up the stairs, Qin Yan noticed the light coming from the kitchen. The lights in their kitchen were a little yellow, and they had to change all the time, but there was no time to change them.

Was it in the kitchen?

Qin Yan pulled his bow tie and impatiently changed his route towards the kitchen. He saw that the refrigerator door was not properly closed, and when it was opened, the contents inside quickly caused Qin Yan to frown.

Gu Shudong!

The smile on Lin Changwei's face didn't waver as he walked in front of Gu Shudong with graceful steps.

Seeing her pale face, the smile on his face widened. "Really? "Ah Tong, but …"

His tone was full of suspicion, but he could still maintain the smile on his face. Gu Shudong blinked as he realized that this man was definitely not an ordinary man. If he forced his way through, Gu Shutong probably wouldn't be a match for him at all.

Chen Qi waved his hand, ready to smooth things over, but Gu Shutong's ringtone immediately broke the silence. As if he had found a lifesaver, he quickly took out his mobile phone and gazed at Lin Changwei as he walked into the distance.

It wasn't until he couldn't see Lin Changwei's expression clearly that Gu Shudong finally heaved a sigh of relief. He pressed the answer button again and again, looking around to see how he was going to escape from this place.

However, he had not expected that it would be that man's phone call.

"Hey, it's late at night. Where did you go?" Qin Yan said, "Which woman runs around like you at night? Hurry up and come back!"

She quickly turned down the volume on her phone and turned around to check if anyone else had heard. When she saw that everyone was still far away, Gu Shutong finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Today is my birthday." Gu Shutong whispered. She blinked and looked down at her black boots. There were dark red fur on both sides of them. These were her favorite boots.

"Who doesn't have a birthday? And you... Isn't he already an orphan? " Qin Yan replied, "Orphans don't care about birthdays."

If not for Qin Yan's reminder, she would have forgotten. Almost all her family members had left her. Gu Shutong's empty heart was once again filled with a sense of loss.

But very quickly, the image of Song Chen appeared in her mind. A refined and gentle man, that was her little brother. Although Song Chen had already forgotten about her, that was still …

"I'm not an orphan." She had no idea where she got the courage to refute Qin Yan.
