Chapter 438: No indication

~4 min read 641 words

After hanging up the phone and exchanging a few pleasantries with Ren Jifeng, Lin Wu turned, got in the car, and left.

For almost the entire afternoon that day, the Lin and Sun families were in a state of excitement and joy.

In fact, so was Lin Wu.

Even if she appeared very calm and composed on the surface.

Past five in the afternoon, Lin Wu's phone rang, and for a moment, everyone else's attention turned toward Lin Wu.

After Lin Wu finished reading the message, Sun Liyao hurriedly asked: "Did brother-in-law come to pick you up?"

"No." Lin Wu said: "He just sent a message asking if I need someone to pick me up."

"I see..."

Although Feng Tingshen didn't come to pick up Lin Wu in person, neither Lin Wu herself nor anyone from the Lin or Sun families cared too much.

After all, surprises are best given in the ordinary; the effect is better.

Lin Wu replied to the message, and after six o'clock, under the watchful eyes of the Lin and Sun families, she left the company and headed to the restaurant Feng Tingshen had booked.

Upon arriving at the destination, before she even entered the private room, she saw Feng Jingxin happily walking back and forth outside; she was clearly waiting for her.

Seeing her arrive, she immediately ran toward her happily: "Aunt Wuwu!"

Lin Wu smiled and reached out to hug her: "Slow down."

Feng Jingxin nodded repeatedly: "I know!" After saying that, she handed the gift box in her hand to her: "Happy birthday!"

Lin Wu took the gift: "Thank you, Miss Xin Xin."

Perhaps not at ease with Feng Jingxin being outside alone, she looked up and found Feng Tingshen also walking out of the private room. Seeing her arrive, he said: "You're here?"

"Mm." Thinking of the birthday surprise he had prepared for her, she couldn't help but start to feel a little nervous.

At this moment, Qi Yuming also walked out of the private room: "You're here? Come in quickly."

Lin Wu held Feng Jingxin's hand and stepped into the private room, only to discover that He Zhangbai was actually there too.

Yesterday, Qi Yuming said in the group chat that they had booked a private room to celebrate her birthday tonight. Although He Zhangbai had wished her a happy birthday at the time, she had thought he would find an excuse not to come.

She didn't expect—

However, Feng Tingshen proposing to her today was different from the past. As one of Feng Tingshen's closest friends, although He Zhangbai now liked Rong Ci and wanted to draw a clear line with her, he indeed had to appear today to witness Feng Tingshen's happy moment.

Seeing He Zhangbai sitting there looking over, she nodded faintly.

Qi Yuming didn't notice the estrangement and distance between her and He Zhangbai at all. Seeing her enter, he gave her his gift first: "A small token, happy birthday."

"Thank you."

At this moment, Feng Tingshen also handed the gift he had prepared to Lin Wu: "Happy birthday."

Lin Wu looked at it, paused, but then smiled: "Thank you."

At this moment, He Zhangbai also handed the gift he had prepared to Lin Wu.

Lin Wu took it as well.

After everyone had given their gifts, the group sat down to order food.

After the dishes were served, they began to chat and eat. Everyone talked about very ordinary topics. Although Lin Wu kept paying attention, she didn't notice any special hints.

At first, she didn't care much.

After all, surprises are usually saved for the end.

However, when they were almost finished with their meal and there was still no movement, Lin Wu suddenly became absent-minded, the smile on her face gradually became forced, and she began to lose her appetite. ===== CHAPTER 439 =====
