The party was held in the spacious courtyard of the Wen family home.
At eight o'clock sharp, the place was brightly lit, and champagne and gourmet food were readily available.
When Rong Shang arrived, she hadn't seen Gu Xingchen yet.
From the few words spoken by the people around them, it was clear that the opening dance for the birthday party would be performed by Gu Xingchen and Wen Li.
Some people are very excited; they are celebrities.
Gu Xingchen is a star among stars; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a superstar.
Everyone has their own things to do on weekdays. Although they are all in the entertainment industry, it is not an easy thing to actually meet Gu Xingchen in person.
It was 8:15.
The atmosphere outside suddenly became lively. Rong Shang realized from the sound that Gu Xingchen had arrived.
The birthday party started at eight o'clock.
He arrived a little after eight o'clock, which is already considered late.
But those present were used to it.
After all, everyone knows that Gu Xingchen has a busy schedule.
The fact that he was able to make time for Winry's birthday party today is enough to show that their relationship is really good.
Surrounded by people, Winry was wearing a red, off-the-shoulder, floor-length gown tonight.
She was already stunningly beautiful, and with a little makeup, she truly shone like a heart in the sky.
Her best friend reminded her, "Lily, Xingchen is here, come and see."
The smile that was on her lips faded slightly.
Looking back, I saw the man in the white tuxedo slowly walking towards me, surrounded by a crowd.
She smiled, and her eyes lit up as well.
At this moment, Wenli greeted him with a glass of champagne, "Xingchen, you've finally arrived."
"Tonight's opening dance..."
Footsteps paused.
The words paused.
The smile on Wenli's lips froze as the man in front of her stepped past her.
"..."
She was ignored.
She was completely ignored.
Many people in the industry are watching her, and Wen Li feels like her face has been slapped on the ground countless times.
Looking back, her smile was now forced. "Xingchen seems a bit tired. I think we should call it off with the opening dance."
She tried to smooth things over by saying, "Actually, I don't really like dancing."
The opening dance that was mentioned online is not happening.
The so-called song he played for her never came to pass.
Some people even suspect that Winry herself may have fabricated all of this.
Of course, what's even more damning is that Rong Shang grinned when she saw Gu Xingchen's embarrassed expression.
A strong gaze fell upon them from the crowd.
Rong Shang realized what was happening and her expression changed.
The rest of the time was spent eating and drinking.
Those who can sing can go on stage and sing a song or two to liven things up.
Those who could dance also went onto the dance floor and performed a dance or two to liven up the atmosphere.
Throughout the party, the atmosphere was relatively relaxed and harmonious.
It wasn't until 9:30 that Rong Shang discovered Wen Li was missing.
Then at ten o'clock, Cheng Xin's assistant suddenly ran out of the villa looking for Gu Xingchen.
There was nothing else to it but to ask him to save Cheng Xin.
Judging from the looks of it, Cheng Xin most likely got into trouble at the Wen family's place.
In an instant, each celebrity wore a variety of expressions.
Gu Xingchen went inside.
He followed Cheng Xin's assistant into the villa.
After an unknown amount of time, a man carrying a woman who was soaking wet walked quickly out of the room.
At that time, all the celebrities around Rong Shang gathered around her.
She couldn't see who came out, but she heard Gu Xingchen shout from behind, "Call an ambulance."
Her shimmering gaze paused.
Rong Shang lowered her eyes, looking at the red wine that was gently rippling in the glass.
For a while, she didn't react at all.
