Chapter 986: Chapter 404: Ding Lele: Brother_3

Yao Lingling’s phone kept ringing from time to time, all calls from classmates and friends.

Some from nearby companies had already arrived.

Nearly ten minutes later, the car finally reached Minghui Square.

Minghui Square is the largest commercial complex in Yuhua District, Yan City.

It consists of five buildings.

Inside, there are not only various brand clothing stores, restaurants, but also cinemas, bars, office buildings, KTVs, and serviced apartments.

The two of them got out of the car and walked toward the entrance of Building C.

As soon as they stepped into the spacious lobby.

A man and a woman sitting in the resting area quickly stood up.

”Lingling, over here!”

”Lingling.”

”Wanwan, Ruizi!” Yao Lingling beamed with a radiant smile and happily rushed over.

These two were her high school friends, both currently developing their careers in Yan City.

She had a warm embrace with the slender girl among them, lifting her up and spinning in place.

After a while of giggling, they finally calmed down.

Zhang Guorui adjusted his glasses on his nose, chuckling, ”Happy birthday, beautiful lady.”

”Thank you.” Yao Lingling extended her hand to him, ”Where’s the gift?”

”Here you go.” Zhang Guorui took out a one-yuan coin from his pocket and placed it in her hand, ”Don’t lose it, it’s the only one of its kind in the world.”

”I truly thank you!” Yao Lingling waved her fist at him and accepted the coin with a smile.

Being friends for so many years, they understood each other’s personalities and found it fun to joke around.

The four of them didn’t wait in the lobby for more than two minutes.

Zhang Jiahong quickly walked in.

Due to Yao Lingling, they had interacted before, but weren’t too familiar with each other.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the group headed to the elevator.

While waiting for the elevator.

Chen Wan held Yao Lingling’s hand and curiously said, ”We haven’t seen each other for over a month, why does it feel like you’ve gotten prettier, and your figure has improved too.”

Next to her, Zhang Jiahong covered her mouth and laughed, ”A woman dresses up for her beloved, she’s been into skincare and working out lately.”

”Oh? Something’s up!” Chen Wan widened her eyes and said, ”Could it be... Lingling, you’ve found someone?”

Yao Lingling’s face instantly turned red, ”No, no, still a proud single, don’t listen to her nonsense.”

Seeing her expression, Zhang Guorui curiously spoke up, ”Wow, I’ve known you for so many years, this is the first time I’ve seen you blush discussing such a topic. Lingling, who is it that’s managed to capture your heart?”

Back in high school, he had a period where he really liked her, after all, her personality was great and she was pretty.

But Yao Lingling seemed completely insensitive to romance.

After chasing and joking around, he became one of her good friends, a buddy.

He’s not the only one in similar situations.

So, seeing the usually carefree Yao Lingling blush so easily was quite unbelievable.

”Go away!” Yao Lingling kicked him, ”Let’s go, let’s go, the elevator’s here, get in quickly.”

With that, she darted inside.

The elevator ascended slowly and stopped on the 4th floor.

On the way to the KTV, Chen Wan nudged Zhang Jiahong next to her and directly asked, ”Who is it? Do I know them?”

Zhang Jiahong whispered, ”It’s a senior from our school, Lingling met him on Little Red Book.”

”Oh my, stop making things up!” Yao Lingling’s face was red and hot again.

Zhang Jiahong winked, ”Hehe, someone claimed online to be his girlfriend, I have the screenshot as proof.”

”That was a joke, playing with memes!”

Yao Lingling’s A-cup chest heaved, and she started playfully tussling with Zhang Jiahong.

They stepped into Instant Dream KTV.

Li Shumin went straight to the front desk and reported her phone number and name.

Two staff members led them inside.

Soon, they stopped in front of a private room door.

Pushing open the heavy black and gold door, exclamations filled the air.

In a nearly 30-square-meter super-sized party room, with a luxurious modern décor style.

An extra-large high-definition display looped several photos of Yao Lingling.

The surroundings were decorated with balloons, streamers, flowers, and other decorations to create a strong birthday atmosphere.

In the middle of the coffee table, there was a 4-tier birthday cake with a beautiful crystal ornament on top, inscribed with Yao Lingling’s name.

Besides that, there was an array of drinks, snacks, and small bites.

”So beautiful!”

”Oh my, Lingling, are you rich now?”

Yao Lingling widened her eyes, gripping Li Shumin’s arm tightly, ”Shumin, what’s going on? Are you trying to bankrupt me!”

Due to being busy with work, her assistant and good sister Li Shumin took on the responsibility of organizing the birthday party.

Their plan was to book a 1588 yuan medium room that could accommodate 10 people.

But it turned out to be a luxurious room with a minimum spend of 4588 yuan, and with the cake, it must’ve gone over 5000 yuan.

It was just a birthday party; she only wanted to have fun and sing with her friends.

This seemed a bit over the top.

Li Shumin smiled and pointed inside, ”This was arranged by President Xiao. He said he originally promised to celebrate your birthday properly, but had to go on a business trip at the last minute, so to apologize, he upgraded the room I booked to this. The cake was custom-ordered days in advance.”

Hearing Li Shumin’s words, Yao Lingling was stunned.

Earlier, when she heard Xiao Mingxuan couldn’t make it, she was actually somewhat relieved.

Mainly because she was afraid he would give an expensive gift, and on such a special occasion as a birthday, refusing wouldn’t be an option.

Yet she wouldn’t be able to repay the favor, which felt uncomfortable.

Chen Wan exclaimed in surprise, ”Which President Xiao? Is it the one you mentioned as the online dating partner? How romantic!”
