Cheng Qicai observed Xu Wuruo's expression upon hearing this. He still wore a gentle smile, as if it were a common occurrence.

Tsk tsk, he put it so bluntly, and the female lead didn't even notice anything wrong, and even gave him both the "friend zone" and "family zone" treatments.

The second male lead is too gentle and overly cautious. Someone like her sister, who has an exceptionally low sensitivity to relationships, really needs someone like Lu Qi with a domineering personality to directly point it out, otherwise her sister would never realize it in her entire life.

It's such a pity that the second male lead is such a gentle man.

"By the way, Qicai, your birthday is next week in our area. Did your aunt tell you?" Yun Suni suddenly asked.

Cheng Qicai nodded, feeling a bit annoyed when this topic came up.

She suddenly remembered that there was another plot point that her mother hadn't reached yet, and now the plot was all messed up. If they were to celebrate her birthday together this time, her mother would definitely see Lu Qi. Would Lu Qi's warning come to her here earlier?

"Huh, are Qicai and Su Ni's birthdays so close together?" Xu Wuruo asked.

As a devoted second male lead, how could he possibly forget the female lead's birthday? Cheng Qicai wasn't surprised at all.

"It's not that close. We're on the same day, but I'm in the morning and Qicai is in the afternoon."

As soon as Yun Su Ni spoke, Xu Wu Ruo and Gu Rong Qi both turned to look at her.

Xu Wuruo smiled and said, "Then you two sisters are really destined to be together."

As Yun Su Ni was answering Xu Wu Ruo's question, Cheng Qi Cai noticed that Gu Rong Qi hadn't spoken and seemed uninterested in their conversation. She leaned closer in a low voice and said, "Mr. Gu, if you have something to do, you don't need to wait for us."

"fine."

Hearing Gu Rongqi's response, she didn't say anything more.

But seeing him standing apart from the topic, Cheng Qicai felt a little embarrassed, so she tried to pull him into their conversation, "President Gu, when is your birthday?"

December 19th.

"Oh, that's almost here, it'll be next month. Mr. Gu's birthday party must be very grand?"

Thinking of the scale of his previous birthday parties, he nodded, "Indeed."

"Would you like to come? I can ask Li Gui to give you an invitation."

Cheng Qicai was startled by Gu Rongqi's words and gave an awkward laugh, "Haha, thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gu, but I'm not used to formal occasions."

She never expected Gu Rongqi to invite her; she had just said it casually!

She felt extremely uncomfortable at the last banquet, let alone attending Gu Rongqi's birthday party, which would definitely be a gathering of big shots.
