After abandoning his wife and children, Bo Xilai coaxed and begged her to reconcile.

Bo Sinian did not find it difficult to resolve the situation.

He never intended to end things.

He never intended to give Shining to Song Zhaoyun; it was just wishful thinking on the part of netizens.

After ending his call with Lu Zaiye, he asked Liang Kuo to remove all the trending topics.

When Song Zhaoyun saw that the news on the internet had suddenly died down, he didn't pay much attention to it.

She guessed it was Bo Sinian's doing.

She fully understood Bo Sinian's desire to keep a low profile. In a way, it was also Bo Sinian's way of protecting her; ever since Old Master Bo suffered a brain injury, his attitude towards her had returned to what it was before. If she were to attract too much attention and Old Master Bo found out, it would probably cause trouble for the Song family again.

Since she's already trending on social media, everyone knows that Bo Sinian is deeply in love with her, so she's already a winner in life.

She has been busy preparing for her birthday party these past two days, and is looking forward to the moment when Bo Sinian will give her the Shining gift at the party.

After hesitating for a long time, she still sent invitations to Shen Yanzhi and Song Jinye.

Firstly, Shen Yanzhi is now a highly sought-after business figure in Nancheng, and hiring him would greatly benefit the reputation of the Song Group.

Secondly, those blind fools last time said that compared to Song Jinye, her beauty was nothing special. This time, she'll show them who the real number one socialite in Nancheng is.

She specially chose to hold this birthday party at Qingwu Garden.

Qingwuyuan is an old villa from the Republican era, a rare private residence in the city, with market prices often reaching hundreds of millions, yet it is always in short supply.

Now that the property rights are in her hands, it is one of her most glamorous and impressive assets.

The villa is decorated with retro carvings throughout, and the exterior walls are draped with champagne-colored climbing roses. The large English lawn is flat and open, and it is complete with fountains, private flower gardens, and open-air rest terraces.

For this birthday party, she specially invested in creating an unobstructed circular driveway, and also reserved a complete space in the yard as a dedicated display area for Shining. She had fantasized countless times about Bo Sinian driving Shining slowly in, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.

Alternatively, Bo Sinian could package Shining into a giant gift and have it delivered by a flatbed truck. The transparent gift box, adorned with champagne-colored bows and LED strips, would make a grand entrance through the city streets and arrive before her.

The thought of being showered with special favor by everyone she knew brought an irrepressible smile to her eyes.

She eagerly awaited that moment.

Bo Sinian's gesture was so generous that it was naturally worth showing it off to everyone.

She had met with Bo Sinian a few times in the past few days, but neither of them mentioned Shining.

Although netizens have thoroughly investigated the gift, she and Bo Sinian seem to have reached a tacit understanding—as long as they don't mention it to each other, the surprise brought by Shining will remain effective and the level of surprise will not be diminished in the slightest.

With growing anticipation, Song Zhaoyun finally celebrated his birthday.

She got up very early, almost at the crack of dawn, and began preparing her makeup and styling for the day. She had to outshine everyone else today.

Jiang Yiran and Song Zhaoyun were not close, and there was even a sense of incompatibility between them, so naturally she did not receive an invitation.

But Jiang Yiran still came; she came with Zhou Chu.

The main point is to force participation.

"Knowing her nature, I have a feeling she invited you with ulterior motives. I need to keep an eye on her to prevent her from doing anything underhanded. I heard she specially created a magnificent display area for the Shining, and she still doesn't know that Bo Sinian never intended to give her a car! I can't miss such a spectacular car crash!"

So, if Song Zhaoyun was incredibly excited about his birthday party, then Jiang Yiran's excitement for it was doubled!

She arrived early, afraid of missing any exciting moments.

For Song Jinye, Qingwu Garden is also her home.

Although she hadn't been back to that home for sixteen years, she still remembered the hydrangeas and roses that stretched along the stone wall in the yard, with warm golden lights twinkling around the branches. When the evening breeze blew, the dappled light and shadow fell on the neatly trimmed holly and camphor trees, and she could hear her parents' soft voices, occasionally punctuated by laughter.

She sat carefree in the yard, sometimes flipping through books, sometimes joking and playing with Rainbow Dash...

The villa preserves her precious and warm memories.

But now, Song Zhaoyun has renovated the mansion in order to throw a birthday party and attract attention. Just thinking about this makes her suppressed anger almost uncontrollable.

Fortunately, Qingwu Garden will soon be back in her hands.

Song Jin looked at the information Zhuge Yu had sent her this morning, her eyes gleaming with determination. This time, she was determined to take back Qingwu Garden without fail!

"Are they here yet? How much longer?" Jiang Yiran texted her.

Song Jin also went with Shen Yanzhi, and Shen Yanzhi's driver told her that there were still ten minutes left.

"Come on, don't miss the chance to see Song Zhaoyun make a fool of himself," Jiang Yiran urged. "He's setting the stage himself, putting on his own show, and making a fool of himself. I'm really looking forward to today."

When Song Jin arrived, she saw a group of people surrounding Song Zhaoyun, flattering her.

"Using a rare garden villa as a birthday venue, this is incredibly impressive. Only our Miss Song has the means to do this."

"This place is so beautiful! It feels like I've stumbled into a fairytale manor. I heard this was Chairman Song's 18th birthday gift to you. Could you ask him if he needs another daughter?"

"Zhaoyun, you look so beautiful today! You're in amazing shape, so gentle and elegant. With the beautiful setting of the garden villa, you look like you stepped out of an oil painting. It's so beautiful that I can't take my eyes off you."

Jiang Yiran pulled Song Jin aside and whispered to her, "Her makeup today looks like she overdid it. All that effort went up and down, but the makeup just looks smudged and tacky."

Song Jin couldn't help but laugh at her.

This smile had a captivating quality, like "a smile that could launch a thousand ships, leaving all the beauties of the palace pale in comparison." It instantly drew many glances, leaving everyone stunned and their eyes filled with unexpected amazement. Everything around them paled in comparison, and Song Jin herself shone with beauty.

"Holy crap! Who is this? She's so beautiful!"

"This must be the goddess of flowers descended to earth; she's so beautiful, it's like she's on a completely different level from everything else. It really has to be God; He has the most exquisite aesthetic sense."

"The one who came with President Shen, could it be the legendary Miss Song? Now I understand what it means to pale in comparison. Even Miss Song has her shortcomings. I feel a bit better now."

Everyone whispered amongst themselves, their eyes seemingly captivated by Song Jin, unable to look away.
