Lin Yue felt like she was being stared at by many eyes, whether she was eating or doing anything. If it weren't for Song Yunzheng's birthday, she really wouldn't like attending this kind of gathering.
"I need to use the restroom," Lin Yue whispered in Song Yunzheng's ear.
"I'll go with you." Dressing so nicely might attract unwanted attention, especially in this club; he has to keep an eye on things!
In the restroom stall, Lin Yue finished using the toilet and was about to leave when she suddenly heard people talking outside, and vaguely heard her name.
Driven by curiosity, she stopped and stood there listening quietly.
"Is that girl really Song Yunzheng's wife? Which family's daughter is she from? She looks so young."
"Who knows? I haven't heard any news about the wedding, but I always feel like I've seen that girl somewhere before."
"Hey, you said she looks familiar, could it be because she looks like him?"
"Oh right, that's him. I saw this smear campaign online a few days ago, but it was taken down within minutes of me clicking on it. Where did you get the photos?"
"I accidentally took a screenshot of this the other day."
"I'm not going to say anything more, people are coming soon, let's go."

After washing and drying her hands, Lin Yue stepped out of the bathroom and immediately saw Song Yunzheng standing at the door waiting for her. He had a gentle smile on his face, which warmed Lin Yue's heart. She quickly walked over and said, "Honey, how about we sneak away? I want to celebrate your birthday alone with you."
“Okay, let’s go quietly then. Follow me.” Song Yunzheng took her hand and walked towards the elevator.
As Lin Yue stepped out of the club, she took a deep breath, savoring the fresh air. Looking back at the grand sign of the Chang'an Club, she exclaimed sincerely, "This place is truly magnificent and opulent!"
"Yes, some well-known entrepreneurs and elites from all walks of life like to host banquets here."
Lin Yue wrapped her thick down jacket tighter around herself and took Song Yunzheng's hand. "Let's go home quickly, I have a little surprise for you!"
"Okay, let's go home."
