Behind the banner were three arches made of pink balloons, through which the red carpet pa*sed from the guests’ drop-off area to the interior of the hotel.
Not only that, but the entrance to the Juyen Garden was buzzing with people, many of whom were doing registration in the front lobby. If it wasn’t for the loudly typed name of Lin Yue’er’s birthday party, I would have thought I was in the wrong place.
“What is this?” I was dumbfounded.
Chu Xiaoxiao pulled me out of the car and ran all the way to the entrance of the hotel, where the security guards at the entrance bowed at the same time as soon as they saw me and called out hello to Mr. Zhang.
The guests who were registering for the banquet also turned around at this point and looked at me in amazement, and several recognised me.
“I can’t believe it’s the young proprietor.”
“The Young Master owns the Garden of Grace?”
I cried and laughed, it was surprising that quite a few people at the scene were employees of the Junran Group.
“What’s going on here? I asked you to make a birthday banquet, how come you made it into a year-end gathering for Junran?”
“Mr. Zhang, these are all Junran’s employees and former colleagues of Miss Lin Yue’er, they are all her friends.”
I said, “BullSh*t, can she have that many friends of Junran? If she did, she probably wouldn’t have been kicked out of Surran in the first place.”
The manager was not afraid of being scolded by me, but said with a smile on his face, “Mr. Zhang, you don’t know that, do you? Just think how miserable she was when she resigned, she was forced out by the company, how many people saw her as a joke at that time? But who would have thought that she would have you as her backer in the blink of an eye? How many people would have been delighted with her. No matter how expensive a gift you give her, it’s better than giving her this favour. Sometimes what people want is not money, but a breath of fresh air.”
I couldn’t help but laugh. What kind of strange theory was that? But since I had invited them here, I couldn’t kick them back.
“By the way, where is this boy Cai Xiaobing? How come I can’t see him in person?” I asked.
“There was a distinguished guest called Cai Xiaobing just now, and it seems that he went to the garden.” The manager pointed in the direction of the garden.
At a time like this, what was Cai Xiaobing doing in the garden if he wasn’t accompanying Lin Yue’er? Could it be that this boy suddenly had a taste for flowers as well?
When we found Cai Xiaobing in the garden, I almost burst out laughing, this kid was hiding behind a bush, shivering, his face was so nervous, his sweat was almost like a waterfall.
“What are you doing hiding here, kid?” I asked.
“Captain, I’m scared ……”
“Look at you. Here, this is your gift. Give it to Lin Yue’er in person later. Remember, change your native accent.”
Cai Xiaobing was so abashed that it took two people, Chu Xiaoxiao and me, to persuade him to come out of the garden.
He hid behind us, and when we arrived at the hotel, the guests were already seated, and at the main guest table was a woman with a clear brow and an outstanding temperament, Lin Yue’er.
“Congratulations and happy birthday.”
“Sister Lin, I’m Zhang Chao’s girlfriend, happy birthday, wow you’re so pretty.”
After Chu Xiaoxiao had hugged Lin Yue’er enthusiastically, she turned around and winked at Cai Xiaobing, signalling for Cai Xiaobing to go up and deliver the gifts.
“Lin, Lin, Lin …… this, this is a gift that my captain bought for Nim.”
As soon as Cai Xiaobing finished, I screamed in my heart that it was over, this erroneous son said everything out, this time she pick up girls this thing is considered yellow.
As soon as Cai Xiaobing finished speaking, the guests present also looked confused, not expecting Cai Xiaobing to speak like that at all.
I didn’t even know how to save the day.
I knew that Cai Xiaobing was honest and couldn’t coax women, but I didn’t expect him to be two hundred and five to such an extent.
I let out a long sigh in my heart. It seemed that our Snow Leopard unit would never be able to take off the name of the strongest bachelor unit.
Lin Yue’er smiled, opened it and put it down after a glance, saying, “Brother Xiaobing, it’s too expensive.”
This means that Cai Xiaobing is out of luck, Lin Yue’er is not interested in him at all.
“Come, Mr. Zhang, Brother Xiaobing, you sit down.”
Lin Yue’er warmly greeted us to sit down, Chu Xiaoxiao and I looked at each other, our hearts were a little weak. Cai Xiaobing, on the other hand, didn’t notice anything at all and sat down with a big grin, mindlessly starting to distribute chopsticks to the people present.
“It’s too expensive, isn’t it? This is what my captain bought, so I guessed that what the captain bought would be expensive. Captain, how much did you spend on these? I think it would have been better to buy some cabbages, they can last for a whole year.
The most annoying thing was that Cai Xiaobing, a fool, thought he had said something good and laughed along with everyone else, I really wanted to sew up the fool’s mouth so that he would stop talking nonsense.
The whole table was in a happy mood, except for Chu Xiaoxiao and I, who were covering our foreheads with our hands, with a look of sheer lividity.
If I have the chance to return to Snow Leopard again in the future, I will definitely ask my instructor to give more lessons to the soldiers on improving their emotional intelligence.
“Little brother, life needs cabbages to fill your stomach, but you also need diamonds and crystals and roses to decorate romance. When you get a girlfriend in the future, are you going to give her cabbages for Valentine’s Day too?”
Suddenly a voice, caused me to be alert, I cursed in my heart, who is it, asking Cai Xiaobing this question, is this not digging a mine for Cai Xiaobing to jump into?
As soon as this person finished asking the question, someone else picked up on it and asked, “Yes, little brother, are you going to give roses to Lin Yue’er on Valentine’s Day too?”
“Yeah, that’s a bit corny, isn’t it?”
Cai Xiaobing was not good at dealing with this kind of situation, so when he was coaxed by people, he immediately blushed and stammered a few words, but he could not stand the pressure of these people.
Although the group knew about my relationship with Cai Xiaobing, they saw that Cai Xiaobing was honest and rustic, while Lin Yue’er was so youthful and fashionable, and also had a good relationship with me.
“That’s right, little brother, look, Yue’er is so pretty, she was born to receive roses as gifts, you get those cabbage things, won’t it be too incompatible with her.”
“I, I’m just giving an example …… I also send roses ……”
“Yo, little brother, you are really going after Yue’er, huh? I didn’t expect that you were quite courageous. You see Yue’er is so pretty, she used to be the front desk of our company’s divisional flower, the face of our Junran ah.”
“Little brother, you’re a toad trying to eat swan’s flesh, you’ve got some nerve. Isn’t it a coincidence then? Today happens to be so lively, you confess your love to Lin Yue’er, if she agrees to be with you, we’ll all be witnesses for you.”
