Chapter 1399 Being Targeted by Her Fiancé's Beloved's White Moonlight 23
On the makeshift stage, one performance after another took place.
As the party drew to a close, Gu Tianyuan and Yan Xiyue finally arrived late.
He offered a half-hearted apology to Song Jinhuan, "Miss Su, I'm sorry, I celebrate Yueyue's birthday separately every year."
Yan Xiyue said with a guilty expression, "Miss Su, I'm sorry, but I really can't break the promise that Brother Tianyuan and I made when we were little."
Song Jinhuan couldn't hide her disappointment, but forced a smile and said, "It's good that you guys came, otherwise no one would cut the cake."
Upon hearing this, Gu Tianyuan glanced at Yan Xiyue and said stiffly, "I don't like cake."
"You cut it yourself."
As he spoke, he glanced at the elaborately arranged scene, which was indeed grand. A pang of guilt suddenly rose in his heart, but it vanished without a trace when he looked at Yan Xiyue's face.
"Alright, I've already been here."
"Yueyue, let's go."
Yan Xiyue grabbed his arm. "Brother Tianyuan, don't do this."
Although he said that, his eyes were full of smugness.
Yan Xiyue: [How's it going? Have you built up enough hatred points?]
Heartthrob: [No.]
Yan Xiyue was puzzled: "This shouldn't be happening! Look at the scale of this setup; it's clearly very important."
The heartthrob: [I might only start to hate you after I leave.]
Gu Tianyuan patted Yan Xiyue's arm, determined to leave, "I just wanted to celebrate your birthday with you. It's already a favor that you took the time to come over."
Song Jinhuan looked embarrassed: "Mr. Gu, don't forget who your fiancée is!"
Gu Tianyuan gritted his teeth in hatred at the thought of their relationship. "So what!"
After he finished speaking, he pulled Yan Xiyue and walked outside.
Song Jinhuan shouted at their retreating figures, "If you leave like this, the Su and Gu families' relationship ends here!"
Gu Tianyuan hated being threatened, so he quickened his pace to leave.
The lively scene instantly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
One after another, people asked to leave.
Song Jinhuan waved his hand weakly.
As they reached the door, a loud bang suddenly came from behind them.
Turning around, they saw the five-tiered cake that had been prepared overturned on the ground, while Miss Su had her back to them.
His shoulders were trembling.
While cursing Gu Tianyuan in their hearts for being ungrateful, everyone left even more quickly!
Song Jinhuan almost burst out laughing; he hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.
A mimosa plant: [Mom, they've left.]
Su's mother: [The reporters have been waiting at the back door for a long time.]
A mimosa plant: [Understood.]
Song Jinhuan smiled and took a shortcut to the back door.
The weather was truly kind; a fine drizzle was falling under the night sky.
The rain curtain under the eaves separated the gentle woman from the couple not far away.
The reporter quickly captured the scene on camera.
Song Jinhuan continued walking forward, and rainwater slanted into the eaves, quickly making her skirt wet.
She seemed determined to catch up, even though the couple had already gotten into the car.
Just then, a restrained voice came from behind, "Miss Su."
Song Jinhuan paused for a moment, then turned her head.
Her slightly red eyes and the fine raindrops clinging to her hair caught Jin Mo's eye unexpectedly.
They looked pitiful and disheveled.
The man's breathing became slightly heavy, a dull ache in his heart as if pricked by a needle. "You like him a lot?"
Who this "he" is is self-evident.
Song Jinhuan's eyes widened, and the emotions she had been building up almost crumbled. In the end, she said ambiguously, "Mr. Jin, you don't understand."
Jin Mo pursed his lips for a moment, then said, "I'll take Miss Su home."
His tone was unusually firm as he draped his suit jacket over Song Jinhuan's shoulders, quickly saying before she could struggle, "Don't catch a cold."
Song Jinhuan couldn't refuse, so she grabbed the collar with both hands and wrapped it around herself. The warmth of the coat dispelled the chill on her body, and at the same time, she was surrounded by his scent.
Jin Mo walked ahead, while Song Jinhuan followed slowly with her head down.
The man kept glancing back out of the corner of his eye to make sure she was following him obediently before he felt at ease.
The driver was observant; the moment the two got into the car, he raised the partition.
A glass of warm water was handed to Song Jinhuan.
Song Jinhuan raised her eyes and glanced at Jin Mo.
Jin Mo turned his face away uncomfortably, his ears turning red despite his anger.
Song Jinhuan accepted it and thanked her softly.
Silence fell in the cramped space.
Jin Mo tapped his knees irritably with his well-defined fingers, then stopped abruptly after a high-frequency tap. His dark eyes were deep, as if he had finally figured something out, and he stared intently at the silent woman.
"Miss Su, if the marriage alliance is merely for the better development of the Su family..."
"The Jin family is a better fit than the Gu family."
Song Jinhuan almost choked and coughed violently several times.
Jin Mo's eyelids twitched, and he quickly got up from his seat, squatted down in front of Song Jinhuan, and gently patted her back.
Song Jinhuan paused for a moment, her breathing finally coming back to normal. Her face flushed from coughing, she looked at Jin Mo with a blank expression: "Mr. Jin, I don't quite understand what you mean."
A hint of desire flashed in Jin Mo's deep eyes, tinged with seduction: "Miss Su, use me."
Song Jinhuan thought she had misheard, and suddenly gripped the cup in her hand tightly, "Mr. Jin, you..."
After a moment of hesitation and utter confusion, I asked, "Why?"
Jin Mo's Adam's apple bobbed, and the burning desire hidden beneath his calm surfaced. He stared at the woman before him with intense intensity, yet his tone remained unusually gentle: "Because..."
"I like you so much."
