She opened the car door and got into the passenger seat.
"Why didn't you bring your flashy sports car today?"
As Gu Siqing fastened her seatbelt, she asked curiously, her tone tinged with a hint of teasing.
Qin Xiao turned his head, looked at her stunningly beautiful face so close to his, and smiled.
"First, you'll be more comfortable riding in a sedan."
He paused, then gestured with his eyes to the back seat.
"Secondly, there are some things prepared for you in the back seat of the car."
Gu Siqing followed his gaze and turned around, instantly stunned.
The spacious back seat was covered with carefully arranged flowers: the elegance of tulips, the purity of lilies, and the passion of red roses, all perfectly intertwined, emitting a faint, rich fragrance that almost filled the entire car.
No woman could resist such a surprise.
Gu Siqing felt as if her heart had been struck hard, and an indescribable warm current instantly surged through her body.
She turned her head abruptly, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears. Before Qin Xiao could react, her soft, warm lips pressed against his, filled with urgency and barely suppressed excitement.
A long and passionate kiss.
After a long while, their lips parted.
Gu Siqing's cheeks were flushed with a beautiful blush, her breathing was still a little rapid, and her eyes were surprisingly bright as she looked at Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao started the car and smoothly merged into the traffic.
The vehicle eventually stopped in front of a top-tier French restaurant located atop the city.
The waiter respectfully led them to a private elevator that took them directly to the rooftop terrace.
The entire place had been booked out; they were the only table on the huge terrace.
The gentle, melodious sound of violin and piano playing together flowed in the night breeze, while the lights of the capital city spread out beneath my feet like a dazzling galaxy.
As soon as Gu Siqing sat down, she heard that familiar melody, and her eyes lit up with surprise again.
"This is... an arrangement of my favorite 'Moonlight Sonata,' how did you know?"
Qin Xiao didn't answer directly, but just smiled and snapped his fingers.
A waiter pushed a beautifully decorated trolley over, on which sat a uniquely shaped cake.
The golden mango and the creamy white durian blend perfectly, exuding an enticing sweet aroma.
"Mango and durian mousse?"
Gu Siqing was completely stunned, her voice trembling with disbelief.
"This is also... my favorite cake! Qin Xiao, you..."
Qin Xiao looked at the misty tears in her eyes, picked up a napkin, and gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes, his voice so gentle it could melt water.
"Your favorite cake."
He pointed to the cake.
"Your favorite night view."
He pointed to the city beneath his feet.
"Your favorite piece of music."
He pointed to the musicians who were playing.
Finally, his gaze went deep into her eyes, filled with an unprecedented seriousness and affection.
"And also, the person you like to spend the most time with."
"They're all here."
Happy birthday, Gu Siqing.
I can't bear it anymore.
Gu Siqing suddenly threw herself into Qin Xiao's arms, hugging him tightly as if she wanted to meld herself into his body, her hot tears instantly soaking his shirt.
"Qin Xiao...I'm sorry...I was so cold and harsh to you before..."
Her voice was choked with sobs, filled with deep guilt and regret.
"Qin Xiao...I love you!"
She looked up at him, her eyes blurry with tears, and with all her might, uttered those three words.
The night breeze was gentle, the stars were shining brightly, and the music was melodious.
However, the couple, immersed in happiness, did not notice this.
In an inconspicuous, dark corner far from the terrace.
A pair of eyes filled with deep-seated hatred were fixed on their embracing figures.
His eyes were sinister and venomous, almost dripping with blood!
