The 23rd of the month is Lin Ruoxi's birthday

In the afternoon, Lin Ruoxi said that she was going out to meet someone, so she went out without saying a word, everyone originally wanted Chu Yun or Zhong Chu Chu to try to lure her away, and take the opportunity to arrange the birthday, but they didn't expect Miss Lin to go out by herself

Although I don't know whether Miss Lin is intentional or not, but because she is not on the spot, the preparation work is much easier, everyone hung up the latte art that Xu Fan bought, and also set up candles in the open space downstairs, and finally asked Chu Yun to drive to the cake shop to bring back the cake that was set, everything was ready, and they also specially discussed with Bacon that they were going to have a big meal today

Everything is ready, just waiting for the protagonist to return

But the time on the wall passed minute by minute, and it was almost 6 o'clock after 5 o'clock in a blink of an eye, but Lin Ruoxi still showed no signs of returning

What's going on, could it be that Lin Ruoxi really had an appointment with someone to celebrate her birthday outside

Speaking of which, in order to make a surprise effect, everyone at Lemon LV deliberately pretended not to know that today was Lin Ruoxi's birthday, and it was very possible to think about it

After a period of consultation, everyone unanimously decided that Chu Yun would bring Lin Ruoxi back

Of course, calling and asking where the person is the first step, and the second step is to pick up the person

"Hey" The phone rang five times before the other party picked it up, Lin Ruoxi's mental state was not very good, and her voice was a little low

"Girl, I'm Chu Yun, where are you?"

The group of people around them all put their ears to Chu Yun's earpiece

"What's wrong with me outside"

"Today...... Eh, do you have time, I have something to say to you," Seeing that Chu Yun almost mentioned the word birthday, all the people around him were making his face work, but fortunately, Chu Yun was a little anxious before he was confused

"If you have anything to say, say it"

"Uh, that's going to be said to your face, where are you now"

"Xixi Garden on Fengyi Road," Lin Ruoxi said

"Then I'll come right away, remember to eat less, or don't eat at all, wait for me," Chu Yun hung up the phone

As soon as Chu Yun hung up the phone, he didn't have time to leave, and a phone call chased the tail of the phone just now

Chu Yun saw that it was Xiao Ya who called

"Why haven't you arrived, everyone is waiting here, I'm going to pick up the girl now," Chu Yun greeted the rest of the room with a gesture, saying that he was going to pick up someone, and then crossed the threshold by himself

But Xiao Ya's tone on the phone was particularly hesitant: "Chu Yun, you see that I still don't want to participate."

"Why," Chu Yun asked rhetorically

"Why don't you understand," Xiao Ya said

"It's such a serious topic"

“……”

"Okay, you come over, everyone have a happy meal, don't you like this kind of activity the most," Chu Yun persuaded: "If there is anything unhappy, I won't mention it today."

After Chu Yun hung up the phone, he drove out of the Hailing Mansion and drove in the direction of Fengyi Road

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi, who was in Xixiyuan Restaurant on Fengyi Road, looked at the number on the phone and fell silent

The man sitting across from her put down the knife and fork in his hand that was cutting beef, stopped and looked at her, wiped his mouth with a napkin: "Boyfriend"

This man looks more than forty, but his face does not look old at all, if it were not for the two nasolabial folds on the bridge of his nose and a few pinches of white hair on his forehead, his real age would have been believed

His eyes are restrained like water, if Chu Yun is still a little wild in his quietness, then this man is already faded like a lead, immobile like a mountain, no need to dress deliberately, he also has a kind of majesty, confidence and calmness in his silence, these things all set off this man's extraordinary identity

Now he set his eyes on Lin Ruoxi

"No," Lin Ruoxi frowned when she replied

"Oh yes......" The man spied on the girl's true thoughts like a lie detector

The silence for a few seconds was a little embarrassing, and the man finally changed the subject after this: "Don't you eat something else until your boyfriend comes to pick you up?"

"I said he wasn't my boyfriend," Lin Ruoxi retorted loudly

If you look closely, you may find that this Western-style restaurant is the one that Lin Ruoxi once brought Chu Yun to, and it has a special resident singer and piano performance, and the style is very high

The man seemed to care about other people's eyes, scratched his head and nose, and made a silent expression: "Don't you think that as a lady, you shouldn't talk so loudly in public?"

Lin Ruoxi wanted to argue something, but she quickly held back, she took the small bag she was carrying from the edge of the seat, put it on her shoulder, and stood up: "I'm leaving."

The man didn't stop

When Lin Ruoxi was about to leave the table, he said: "Think about my previous proposal, you are not small, it's time to take responsibility and decide your future path, okay, I won't say much, today is your 18th birthday, I gave a car last year, this year I want to send something new, this necklace is a gadget I specially asked someone to buy in Paris, keep it as a souvenir."

The man opened a gift box from the pocket of his suit and pushed it in front of Lin Ruoxi, which was a very delicate sapphire necklace

The size of this gem shone as bright as a star in the dim light, which made the lady sitting next to her, who was still revealing her disdain for the old and young just now, look straight at her

Lin Ruoxi picked up the box and said reluctantly: "Thank you"

The man raises his high-legged red wine glass; "I wish you eternal youth and beauty"

Lin Ruoxi took a sip of the juice in the wine glass, and then walked to the door

The man watched Lin Ruoxi's figure disappear into the hall, and then he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number

"Yes, it's me...... Well, I have been abroad recently, Qiu Nan, who only returned to California yesterday, has something I want you to trouble me to check Ruoxi's circle of friends, especially male friends, I want detailed information."

Turning off the phone, the man politely raised his glass to the lady who was not on his male companion at all, and drank it all

When Chu Yun drove to the gate of Xixi Garden, Lin Ruoxi was standing there alone

Her face was a little pale under the street lamp, and Chu Yun saw several young men who seemed to be about to talk to her

Chu Yun drove over and honked his horn vigorously

"It turned out to be with a rich second generation," after seeing the car that Chu Yun drove, the group of people who wanted to talk to him walked away with interest, but for this reason, Chu Yun was scolded for nothing, this BMW is him, it is not wrong, but the car is borrowed, not his

But if you really want to compare, it must be Lin Ruoxi's Porsche that is more conspicuous

Chu Yun opened the car door for her so that Lin Ruoxi could sit on

After she sat down in the passenger seat, Chu Yun asked, "What about your car?"

"Didn't you say that you had something to say to me, what does it have to do with my car," Lin Ruoxi stared at him

Chu Yun was slightly embarrassed: "Actually, I'm going to take you to a place"

"Then let's drive," Lin Ruoxi said, "I'll pick up the car tomorrow."

"You don't ask why......" Chu Yun started the engine and drove the car back to the road

When Chu Yun wasn't paying attention, Lin Ruoxi said so softly: "Fool"
