Chapter 415: Chapter 417: Murong Fei’s Birthday Gift

Qin Tian looked at Murong Fei, who sensed something and turned to face him. She immediately pursed her lips and then rubbed her eyes, pretending as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, Qin Tian coughed dryly twice, feeling a bit awkward, and sat on the sofa opposite Murong Fei.

”Qin Tian, you’ve arrived?”

Murong Bei, leaning on a walking cane, came down from the second floor at a leisurely pace, wearing a smile on his face. He glanced at Murong Fei and approached the sofa.

”Qin Tian, happy birthday.”

Murong Bei sat down next to Qin Tian on the sofa and said, ”I only rushed back yesterday. It was all so hurried, and I didn’t prepare a birthday gift for you. Well, let’s have a simple home-cooked meal today and call it my treat.”

”Elder, you’re too polite. I hardly celebrate my birthday,” Qin Tian said modestly.

In the hall, it was just Murong Bei, Qin Tian, and Su Xuejiao chatting and laughing, while Murong Fei didn’t say a word from beginning to end, obviously preoccupied with her thoughts.

Once the servants had prepared the meal, Murong Bei led Qin Tian to their seats. Everyone sat down and started eating and laughing, and that was when Murong Fei couldn’t hold back anymore and glanced at Murong Bei.

Murong Bei felt a wave of embarrassment.

Finally, when Qin Tian looked at Murong Fei, she spoke up, ”Qin Tian, inviting you here today was partly to celebrate your birthday, and partly to tell you something.”

Murong Fei’s eyes, brimming with tears, looked straight into Qin Tian’s, ”Of course, it’s also my birthday gift to you. I think you’ll definitely like it.”

Huh? Murong Fei actually prepared a birthday gift for me?

Qin Tian was stunned, somewhat baffled. This wasn’t her style, was it?

She even said I would definitely like it... No, wait...

As Qin Tian witnessed Murong Fei’s tearful appearance, he felt a stirring in his heart, sensing that something was about to happen.

As expected, Murong Fei, ignoring Murong Bei’s coughing attempt to stop her, looked at Qin Tian and said clearly, word by word, ”I want to break off our engagement!”

As soon as she said it, Su Xuejiao, who knew nothing, was instantly stunned!

Of course, Qin Tian was also frowning in shock.

”I know you don’t like me... Of course, I don’t like... you, either. I was against this from the beginning. Now it seems, forcing an engagement was a mistake from the start.”

”I know many women like you, all of them beautiful... So I’m curious... Qin Tian, why didn’t you take the initiative to come to me to break the engagement? Is it because you were concerned about Grandpa’s feelings, or about mine... Don’t worry, I won’t mind.”

”After all, having this engagement is just a burden, preventing you from settling down. You are a big shot now, you have your own career, and Murong Group isn’t grand enough for you, the Murong Family doesn’t stand out to you... Let’s break off the engagement, so we both can be free.”

At the dining table, only Murong Fei spoke with a choked voice, with everyone listening.

Su Xuejiao was full of curiosity, thinking so that’s why Brother Qin Tian has always lived at my place - he and my sister have an engagement!

However, as Murong Fei spoke, Su Xuejiao thought about the dissolution of the engagement between Qin Tian and Murong Fei and, strangely, she didn’t feel sad. Instead, a peculiar feeling emerged within her...

Murong Bei sighed and shook his head on the side.

When Murong Fei had called him about this matter yesterday, he had completely disagreed.

But he had also taken into account that after Murong Fei had been kidnapped by the Zhongyi Hall, she might be feeling very fragile and had suffered unbearable mental stress. So, when his granddaughter returned home after enduring hardship and made this request, Murong Bei couldn’t insist on his opinion as before, not wanting to cause Murong Fei further heartache.

At this moment, facing Murong Fei’s words, Qin Tian just looked at her, his expression barely changing, quite calm.

”I’ve already prepared the agreement to terminate our engagement. Just sign it, and afterwards, we’ll no longer have this relationship of an engagement. Of course, in the future... we can still be... friends, I suppose.”

Murong Fei placed the agreement and a pen in front of Qin Tian, for him to sign.

Qin Tian didn’t speak. He glanced at Su Xuejiao, then at Murong Bei, and finally back at Murong Fei.

”Murong Fei, if breaking off the engagement would make you happier and freer, then fine, I’ll sign...”

His gaze fixed on Murong Fei, Qin Tian slowly picked up the pen. As Murong Fei was looking down in silence, he signed his name on the agreement to dissolve the engagement.

”As you wished, thank you for the birthday present!”

Qin Tian handed the agreement back and placed it in front of Murong Fei, the corners of his mouth twitching, ”This really is a birthday present that makes me very happy.”

After speaking, Qin Tian stood up to propose a toast to Murong Bei, ”Old man, thank you for your thoughts, cheers to you!”

Three cups of white liquor were filled, and Qin Tian downed all three in succession!

Murong Bei was embarrassed!

Su Xuejiao was embarrassed!

Murong Fei, on the other hand, packed up the agreement and left directly.

”I have business at my company, I’m heading back now. You guys enjoy your meal.”

She walked out with her head down, clutching her handbag.

Her long hair covered her face, but not the tears that stained her cheeks.

”Sigh, Qin Tian, Fei’er has been spoiled by me, this matter...”

”Old man, no need to say more, I said from the start that we weren’t suitable for each other, but you insisted we get to know each other better before deciding. Now, it’s clear even after getting acquainted that we’re not suitable. Annuling the engagement is good for both parties, don’t you agree?”

Qin Tian drank his liquor, smiling with a pale smile.

Murong Bei shook his head speechlessly, ”This was supposed to be such a great thing... How did our Murong Family have the fortune to be connected to... Sigh, Fei’er really doesn’t know what’s good for her, I, Murong Bei, have failed to appreciate Taiji’s kindness!”

Qin Tian didn’t understand what Murong Bei was getting at. After toasting everyone, he didn’t stay at Murong Mansion; he drove straight back to Wolong Mountain.

He didn’t care about driving after drinking, and sped all the way home!

...

”President Fei.”

”Good day, President Fei.”

When Murong Fei arrived at Murong Group, everyone at the headquarters witnessed the scene—

Murong Fei was crying!

The ever-dignified President Murong Fei was actually crying!?

Could they be seeing things?

Everyone was stunned.

Along the way, people respectfully greeted her, but Murong Fei didn’t pay attention to anyone, heading straight for her office.

She was crying, indeed she was.

She, who was usually so good at controlling her emotions, couldn’t hold them back today.

Crying in front of her employees, what a disgrace!

Let it be disgraceful! She didn’t care about that anymore and walked into the elevator with her head down.

”President Fei...”

”President Fei...”

There were employees in the elevator, and they, too, looked at her with a mix of awe and curiosity.

Murong Fei pursed her lips, then suddenly looked up, her stunning face with tear stains looking at the other three people in the elevator!
