Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

After realizing that she had caught a cold, Murong Qiao first took a mouthful of medicine before getting up and packing to go to work at the company.

However, when she thought about how she didn’t realize it was Valentine’s Day last night, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but be annoyed with herself for being careless.

She sat m the office and reviewed the documents on her desk, but she was thinking about when she could give Huo Yichen a surprise.

However, when she thought of Huo Yichen, Murong Qiao suddenly realized that the other party had never even celebrated his own birthday.

He also didn’t say when he was born.

Murong Qiao did as she thought and simply called Uncle Huo to ask.

“Young Miss Murong?” The other party was a little surprised when he received the call.

Murong Qiao went straight to the point. “Uncle Huo, do you know when Ah Chen’s birthday is?”

Uncle Huo was stunned for a moment. He flipped through his memories and really found the answer.

“Now that you mention it, I remember. It should be in less than a month.” The butler immediately told Murong Qiao the date.

Before Huo Yichen returned to the Huo family, Huo Hong had also asked the butler to investigate Huo Yichen’s background in detail. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to know Huo Yichen’s birthday.

Uncle Huo had never thought about this matter, mainly because Huo Yichen had never considered anything about himself. Only when it involved Murong Qiao could it attract his attention.

When Murong Qiao found out about the date, she was very happy. “Alright, I understand. Then can I trouble Uncle Huo to keep this a secret for me?” She originally wanted to give Huo Yichen a surprise, but she didn’t expect the opportunity to be given to her just like that.

The butler naturally agreed. The wrinkles on his face looked much kinder because of his smile. After knowing that Murong Qiao and his Young Master were very close, the butler was also extremely happy.

Murong Qiao didn’t say anything else. She only exchanged a few pleasantries with the butler before hanging up.

On the other hand, the butler welcomed Huo Yichen, who had just returned home.

“What’s making you so happy?” Huo Yichen couldn’t help but ask when he saw the butler smiling happily.

The butler took a step forward and helped Huo Yichen take off his coat as he replied, “Nothing much. Old people have to be happy to live longer.

Besides, it’s rare for Young Master to come back early.” The butler smoothed this matter over with a few words.

It was not good to expose Young Miss Murong’s surprise in advance.

The butler followed Huo Yichen into the study with him with a smile.

Fortunately, Huo Yichen didn’t ask further on this topic. His attention quickly shifted elsewhere.

He rarely went home. Even if he came back occasionally, it was to handle matters and not to rest. Now that he was sitting in the study, he had a lot of documents in his hands.

“How’s the investigation on Huo Xiuyuan?” Huo Yichen’s tone was casual when he mentioned the person who had yet to fall into his hands.

The butler recalled the current progress report. “We’re still chasing him He’s quite afraid of death. He changed places to hide several times in a row, but it’s not a big problem.

Huo Hong also has a doctor to check on him every day. Don’t worry,” the butler said.

Whether it was Huo Hong or Huo Xiuyuan, they were both remnants of the last war. They could no longer shake Huo Yichen’s established position.

Huo Yichen nodded and didn’t ask further.

Escaping wouldn’t solve the problem. No matter how much trouble Huo Xiuyuan caused, he couldn’t hide from his investigation.

After their conversation, the study fell silent again. The butler left at the right time, leaving Huo Yichen alone.

When he was going through the documents, he couldn’t help but think of last night. Thinking of Murong Qiao, he found the first episode of the preliminaries of “Flicker” to play on the big screen. When the camera switched to Murong Qiao’s face, he couldn’t help but smile.

The popularity of “Flicker” had gradually risen recently, especially since the second episode was about to be broadcasted. Many people were looking forward to watching the show.

In order to attract the viewers, the television station had also chosen a few time slots to replay the first episode.

Looking at the glowing youths singing and dancing on the screen, the program gradually became more familiar.

It was also under such circumstances that Zheng Yue met Murong Qiao one-sidedly again.

Ever since Nan Kang was sent to prison, Zheng Yue had been in dire straits for a long time.

Without Nan Kang’s help, she was fired by the company and lost her job, losing her source of income.

Zheng Yue, who Murong Qiao had originally helped rent a house, didn’t have the money to renew the lease. In the end, she could only change her place to live. However, her life was becoming more and more difficult, and even Zheng Yue’s face lost its luster.

Her long hair was disheveled. She took a bite of the instant noodles and wanted to turn on her cell phone to look at something.

She looked at the scene playing on the phone screen in a daze. She saw Murong Qiao sitting there in an eye-catching beautiful dress that seemed to glow. Her sparkling smile shone brightly.

Zheng Yue recognized Murong Qiao’s face almost immediately. At the same time, her heart, which was originally numb from life, gradually became lively and a different feeling arose.

They were clearly roommates and classmates in the past. Murong Qiao had even helped her.

The moment she saw Murong Qiao, the memories in her mind seemed to have been activated. They kept replaying the luxurious life she had led in the past.

But now…

Looking at the small house she lived in and the instant noodles in front of her,

Zheng Yue bit her lip and felt a little indignant.

After Nan Kang left, Zheng Yue originally wanted to rely on the rich second-generation heirs like before to continue living carefreely. However, without Nan Kang, those high-end venues were not for a student like Zheng Yue to enter.

She had also tried to go over and interview for a new job, but even with her experience working at Nan Kang’s company, no one wanted her.

“We can’t even take in all the graduate students who come for interviews every

day. Why are you here as an undergraduate?”

I m sorry, our place is already full. Go to another company and try.”

I’m sorry, we don’t accept students with your educational background.”

“Although we also value work ability, in terms of academic qualifications…”

No matter what excuse it was, Zheng Yue was rejected.

She was only halfway through her studies at Hui University before she stopped going to school. Later on, she even used Nan Kang to get a job. When had she ever felt like this, unwanted by everyone?

When she graduated, it was the best time to find a job, but Zheng Yue didn’t care at all. She was unwilling to be a cleaner and sweep the streets, or work in a cafe.

Helpless, she could only sell the luxury goods that Nan Kang had given her previously and barely maintained her life until now.

She looked at Murong Qiao’s face on the screen in a daze, but she suddenly received a voice message from the landlord.

“By the way, I’ve already given you a month’s grace for the rent. Remember to

pay it on time. This is your last chance.”

Zheng Yue pursed her lips, feeling even more upset.

After tasting the sweetness of life in the upper-class society, Zheng Yue was almost unable to extricate herself from it. However, her current life had slapped her awake.

She was silent for a moment before suddenly looking up at Murong Qiao’s smiling face on the screen.

That was the difference between heaven and earth.

“This is the boss of CG Company, Murong Qiao. She will also be a guest with everyone in the next few episodes…”

Zheng Yue didn’t listen carefully to the rest of the sentence.

She stared fixedly at Murong Qiao’s dazzling appearance, and some kind of obsession gradually condensed in her eyes..
