Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

Jiang Zhe also presented a carefully selected gift, saying, "Happy birthday, little princess. May you live a carefree, happy, and healthy life."

Gu Yinhe happily accepted the gift, "Thank you, Brother Zhe."

Lu Xiao stood next to Jiang Zhe, his eyes practically glued to Si Yuan from the moment she appeared.

Ah Yuan is so beautiful.

Like a fairy.

Gu Yinhe coughed lightly and stepped on Lu Xiao's foot. "Where's my birthday present?"

Lu Xiao then came to his senses and awkwardly handed the gift to Gu Yinhe, saying, "Happy birthday."

"You can't even concentrate when I'm standing right in front of you, so I'm punishing you by making you sing three songs for us today."

Lu Xiao glanced at Si Yuan, wanting to make a good impression on her as well. "Yes, Your Highness."

The interaction between the two sparked some teasing from the crowd.

"We're so lucky to have Young Master Lu sing for us in person."

"Isn't that because the little princess has a lot of influence? Can just anyone order Young Master Lu around?"

"We all owe it to the little princess."

"Oh my, childhood sweethearts, bickering lovers, how wonderful!"

Gu Yinhe was so busy accepting the gifts from Bo Yusen that she ignored what everyone was saying.

Gu Yinhe's gaze inadvertently fell on Bo Yusen's lips, and without thinking, she asked curiously, "Brother Yusen, what happened to your lips?"

As soon as Gu Yinhe said this, everyone's eyes fell on Bo Yusen's lips.

Her sexy, thin lips were scabbed over, and looked like they had been bitten.

No one dares to bite Master Bo's lips, so this injury was probably caused by him biting someone when they were kissing and getting too excited.

The crowd's ambiguous gazes lingered between Gu Mingyue and Bo Yusen.

Gu Yinhe understood something in an instant.

She looked at Gu Mingyue in disbelief, never expecting her usually gentle older sister to be so fierce in front of Yu Sen.

Gu Mingyue knew perfectly well that she hadn't bitten it, but she couldn't deny it in front of everyone.

She glanced at Si Yuan, who had her head down and looked guilty.

It is obvious—

No one but Si Yuan would dare to bite Yu Sen like that.

Damn it, Si Yuan knew about the marriage alliance between the Bo and Gu families, yet she still dared to seduce Yu Sen.

Si Yuan wasn't feeling guilty, but rather confused.

That day……

She did bite Bo Yusen, but almost half a month has passed. Even if the bite was severe, it should have healed by now.

But Bo Yusen's lip injury was very fresh, as if he had been bitten just today.

Although it was in the same spot, it was definitely not the one she bit.

Could it be—

After Gu Mingyue saw the injury on his mouth, she became jealous and angry, and started biting him every day.

Just then, Bo Yusen, who never liked to explain, said calmly, "It's just a bit of a sore throat."

But his explanation was no different from protesting too much; people seemed to believe it, but in reality, they were thinking even more perversely.

Gu Yinhe was still grinning after receiving Bo Yusen's gift, but she immediately stopped smiling when she saw Yu Muchen next to Bo Yusen.

Gu Mingyue did not invite Yu Muchen to her birthday party.

But since the other party had come, and guests are guests, she naturally couldn't kick them out.

"Happy birthday……"

Thinking about what had happened before and the dream she had recently, Gu Yinhe was not too keen on accepting Yu Muchen's gift.

But Yu Muchen is, after all, Bo Yusen and Jiang Zhe's good brother. In addition, many people in the circle are opportunistic. If she refuses Yu Muchen's gift today, who knows what people will say about her.

Gu Yinhe is very kind. Even if she dislikes Yu Muchen, she won't make him lose face in public.

Gu Yinhe accepted the gift. "Thank you."

Afterwards, the waiter brought out a five-tiered cake. Gu Yinhe closed her eyes and made a wish, and everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to her.

After Gu Yinhe made her wish and blew out the candles, everyone cheered and applauded happily.

There were many people between Si Yuan and Bo Yusen. Amidst the clamor of the crowd, Si Yuan couldn't help but glance at Bo Yusen.

Unexpectedly, Bo Yusen happened to be looking over.

The moment their eyes met, Si Yuan quickly lowered her head, her heart pounding like a drum.

At this moment, Lu Xiao stood next to Bo Yusen, thinking that Si Yuan's glance just now was directed at him, and he was so excited that he almost fainted.

Sure enough, he knew that A Yuan was also interested in him.

Ordinary birthday parties are too boring, so Gu Yinhe put together a very interesting program.

The waiter brought over three boxes, one transparent and two opaque.

Inside the transparent container is a two-person walking bracelet.

Gu Yinhe pointed to the opaque boxes and said, "Everyone, these two boxes contain balls. The men will take the balls from the blue box, and the women will take the balls from the red box. The two people who get the same number will automatically become partners tonight..."

Gu Yinhe pointed to the transparent box again, "The two people who form a partnership must be tied together with this bracelet, and they can only be untied when the ship docks."

Some people below started to jeer, "Playing this high?"

Gu Yinhe laughed, "What's so special about that? You've all played PUBG, right? Tonight we're doing live-action CS, but instead of guns, we'll be using cakes..."

Gu Yinhe is explaining the game rules to everyone.

"Victory is only achieved when the smear is applied to the men, so tonight we're not heroes rescuing damsels in distress, but rather damsels in distress rescuing heroes."

It sounded really fun, and everyone cheered immediately.

"Okay, everyone, start taking the balls. Remember, take what you get, respect the rules, and no sneaking around exchanging them!"

"Of course, if the couple minds this game, they don't have to play it. There are many other entertainment options available..."

Gu Yinhe smiled slyly, "Or, you could take this opportunity to test each other, but you'll have to bear the consequences."

Today is Gu Yinhe's birthday, making her happy is the most important thing, nothing else matters.

Besides, it's just a game.

Shen Xingzhu, eager to try, asked, "Ah Yuan, do you think I'll find a boyfriend tonight?"

Since breaking up with her scumbag boyfriend, Shen Xingzhu has been busy with work and hasn't dated anyone.

During this time, my romantic spirit was rekindled.

Si Yuan smiled and gave her a thumbs-up, "I believe in you, but only if..."

Shen Xingzhu quickly answered, "I know to protect myself."

When everyone got the ball, Lu Xiao nervously walked over to Gu Yinhe, "How did it go?"

Gu Yinhe gave him an OK sign, "Don't worry, everything is under control."

Lu Xiao smiled and nudged Gu Yinhe's shoulder, "When I win A Yuan's heart and we get married, I'll definitely make sure you sit at the head table."

"Isn't that obvious? I was going to sit at the head table anyway."

Lu Xiao was very happy and excited because with Bo Yusen around, he couldn't very well go and fawn over Si Yuan.

But this game changes everything.

The game randomly pairs players, so even if Yusen sees that he and Ayuan are a couple, he won't associate it with romance.

He could take this opportunity to get to know Ah Yuan better.

Although he wanted to protect A Yuan, being protected by A Yuan was also a very happy thing.

Just thinking about it makes Lu Xiao smile happily.

This scene did not escape Bo Yusen's eyes. He curled his lips, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

Gu Mingyue also had her own little schemes.

Although she had already been explicitly rejected by Bo Yusen, she was unwilling to give up.

If they can be matched with Yusen, their relationship might take a turn for the better.

However, you can't see the number before you draw it; you have to open the ball and take out the slip of paper inside to see it.

I wonder if she can be matched with Yusen.

The game started too quickly, otherwise she could have colluded with Galaxy.

If Gu Yinhe really had that intention, he would have arranged for her and Yusen to be together.

Shen Xingzhu had already picked up the ball, opened it, and saw that it contained 36.

Shen Xingzhu was quite happy, "Perfect, I like both 3 and 6, so I like them even more together. Ayuan, you should get one too..."

In the past, Si Yuan wouldn't have participated in this kind of game, since it would be very awkward to be matched with strangers.

Matched with an acquaintance —

Si Yuan might feel even more awkward with the other people on the other side.

But today is Gu Yinhe's birthday, and Gu Yinhe is the eldest, so she doesn't want to be a spoilsport.

Just as Si Yuan was about to get the ball, Gu Yinhe took a ball out of the box and handed it to her. "A Yuan, I picked one for you. I hope you meet a funny and humorous partner tonight and have some fun."

Since Si Yuan is playing games, she doesn't have high requirements for who her partner is.

Anyone but Bo Yusen will do.

"good……"

Si Yuan took the ball, and Shen Xingzhu leaned closer. "Quick, look! What number is inside your ball?"

Si Yuan twisted the ball open and saw that the note had the number 8 written on it.

Shen Xingzhu nudged Si Yuan's shoulder. "Hey, isn't 8 your lucky number? Looks like we'll both have good luck tonight."

Gu Mingyue saw the number Si Yuan had. She subconsciously looked at Bo Yusen, hoping that the number in Bo Yusen's ball wasn't 8.

Gu Mingyue can accept Bo Yusen teaming up with any girl, but not Si Yuan.

Bo Yusen wouldn't like any of the women here, but Si Yuan...

Gu Mingyue dared not gamble.

After all, Si Yuan was the only girl that Bo Yusen could admit to liking, and that was at Bo Qinghe's tombstone.

Although Bo Yusen didn't try to get back together with Si Yuan after rejecting her, she really couldn't figure out what he was thinking.

Therefore, he cannot be with Si Yuan.

After Lu Xiao received the ball, he didn't start the shot but waited for Si Yuan.

Seeing Si Yuan open the ball and see the number 8, he excitedly tried to twist the ball open—

Suddenly, someone bumped into him from behind, catching Lu Xiao off guard and causing him to stumble forward.

The ball slipped from his hand and flew out of his hand.

The ball is round, and after it falls to the ground, it rolls a long way.

Lu Xiao was completely flustered. Forgetting who had bumped into him, he immediately ran to find his ball.

There were many people, and everyone was looking for their partner; the ground was covered with feet.

Lu Xiao finally found his ball and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Number 8...Which gentleman is number 8...?"

Shen Xingzhu is helping Si Yuan find her Mr. No. 8.

Lu Xiao was so excited that he frantically opened the ball, and before he even saw the words on the note, he had already raised his hand—

"I."

But the sound didn't come from Lu Xiao's mouth—

It came from a mouth that had been discussed by everyone, and from a bitten mouth.
