Then the people at the side rush forward to help them up.
Zhao Yuan pulled Shen Xi up and secretly looked at Gu Chen from the side.
Then, she pulled Shen Xi closer to her. She was a fan of Shen Xi and Guan Lei. Now that Guan Lei was not here, she could not let Gu Chen seduce Shen Xi.
Yes, he indeed seduced Shen Xi. She had seen it all. Gu Chen was drawing Shen Xi with beautiful eyes. Even she, who was so far away, was almost mesmerized, let alone Shen Xi, who was close to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen, who was helped up, pushed the crowd away and walked towards Shen Xi. He said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Xi. I didn’t stand properly just now and fell with you.”
Shen Xi shook her head. “I’m fine. You, on the other hand, must have suffered a severe fall. It’s better to let your family doctor examine you.”
Gu Chen waved his hand and said, “I’m fine. It’s good that you’re not injured.
Shen Xi did not know why, but she felt uncomfortable. Then, she said, “It’s getting late. Tomorrow is Monday, and I still have classes. I’ll go back first.”
Hearing that Shen Xi wanted to return, Gu Chen’s bright eyes dimmed slightly. He looked as if Shen Xi had done something to bully him. Shen Xi instantly looked embarrassed.
“Can we wait a little longer? I haven’t cut the cake yet. I want to cut the first piece to thank you for being my dance partner.” When Gu Chen spoke, his eyes were clear, as if he just wanted to cut a cake for Shen Xi.
Shen Xi felt that she seemed to be a little paranoid. Why would she always suspect that Gu Chen had bad ideas for her?
She smiled and said, “Okay, we’ll leave after eating the cake.”
Zhao Yuan didn’t say anything. She just looked at Gu Chen warily. In her heart, she didn’t care what Gu Chen wanted to do, but he couldn’t break up Shen Xi and Guan Lei.
Gu Chen nodded at the waiter beside him. Then, the door on the side gradually opened. A big cake half the height of a person was pushed in. There were already candles on it.
The people around them were singing the birthday song. Shen Xi also beat the rhythm and sang with everyone. Then, Gu Xing quickly asked the people to turn off the lights and urged Gu Chen, “Chen, hurry up and make a wish.”
Gu Chen’s gaze passed through the orange candle and landed on Shen Xi’s face. Then, he closed his eyes under Shen Xi’s puzzled expression. With a smile, he crossed his fingers and made a wish silently.
Gu Chen opened his eyes again and quickly blew out the candle. When the light came on again, Gu Chen happily took the waiter’s knife and gently cut the top layer. He carefully placed it on the plate at the side.
Then, Gu Chen led the waiter to carry the cake to Shen Xi. He took the cake with both hands and handed it to Shen Xi with a serious face. “Try my birthday cake first.
Shen Xi nodded and took the cake. He said politely, “Thank you! And happy birthday! Gu Chen.”
Gu Chen nodded and smiled happily. Then, he picked up another piece beside him and handed it to Zhao Yuan. He said to Zhao Yuan with a sincere smile, “Here, this is yours. Thank you for coming to my birthday party.”
Zhao Yuan quickly smiled and said politely, “Thank you! Hahaha. Happy birthday, Gu Chen.”
Gu Chen turned around and said to Gu Xing, “Aunt, help me cut the cake. I’ll send Shen Xi and Zhao Yuan off.’
Gu Xing smiled and said, “Alright, you can go.”
Shen Xi wanted to say it was unnecessary, but she could only shut up when she saw Gu Chen’s firm expression. She silently took a bite of the cake and then took a coat with Zhao Yuan to put on.
At this moment, Shen Xi saw Guan Lei’s message and felt slightly disappointed. She thought she could dance with Guan Lei but didn’t expect it to happen. She didn’t know what urgent matter Guan Lei had for him to leave without even saying goodbye to her.
Gu Chen strolled. Shen Xi and Zhao Yuan followed him patiently as they ate the cake.
When they were about to reach the door, Gu Chen suddenly turned around, scaring Shen Xi so much that she almost threw the cake holder on Gu Chen.
Gu Chen turned to Zhao Yuan and said, “I have something to say to Xi.. Can you give us a little time?”
