Gu Shaocheng, completely oblivious to his own mistreatnt, ordered a large plate of food. He scooped a small bowl for her, picked up the chopsticks, and put so sour and sweet refreshing radish into her bowl. At that mont, his subordinate walked in from outside, whispering sothing into his ear. He nodded, the subordinate respectfully retreated.
The host then walked onto the stage, offering his congratulations.
The atmosphere was excellent, with constant applause.
Gu Buyu left his seat to also take the stage and deliver his feast speech. Chenxing was completely unable to focus on it because Gu Shaocheng was holding the small bowl of rice, feeding her personally to make up for his earlier appetite-dampening behavior.
"I don’t want to eat, I feel nauseous and I’m full from the dishes."
"Vegetables don’t fill you up. Finish this bowl of rice." His attitude was resolutely determined. He personally fed her in such a public occasion. For anyone watching, she appeared to be a little princess showered with affection. Many people must be envious, jealous, and resentful.
Who would know that she was filled with grievances while she ate?
At this mont, for every spoonful he fed her, she had to open her mouth to swallow, no matter how much she felt wronged, she had to continue tolerating it, just like what he had ruthlessly told her earlier.
He forcefully fed her the whole small bowl of rice, not a single grain left. Gu Shaocheng took out a napkin and gently wiped the corners of her mouth, "Full yet?"
Chenxing trembled, feeling his gentle care. Her heart seed a little ward: "Mmm, I’m full."
He nodded, "Still feeling wronged?"
If he fed her a bowl of rice, would she stop feeling wronged? Chenxing kept silent, intentionally avoiding his gaze, looking towards the stage. Just by looking at the way she was avoiding him, Gu Shaocheng knew how she was feeling.
He didn’t try to coax her, only hooking her chin and forcing her to focus back on him.
She was about to speak.
Suddenly, the lights in the entire banquet hall dimd simultaneously. The whole banquet hall turned pitch dark, with only a few mobile phone screens faintly glowing.
Everyone’s gaze simultaneously shifted to the outside of the entrance. Since it was a birthday banquet, even though the electricity suddenly went out, no one was surprised. They knew it was the presage of the cake entrance.
As expected, a side door opened quickly, a forty-layer cake, with its candles already lit, slowly appeared in everyone’s sight.
A Happy Birthday song echoed gently around the banquet hall.
However, at this mont, soone exclaid. Her attention wasn’t on the forty-layer cake being wheeled up the red carpet to the stage, but seed to have suddenly discovered sothing surprising. Following this, she cried out in astonishnt, "What is that?"
Straight after, more and more people noticed another mysterious light source in the dark hall.
"Wow, it’s so beautiful..."
"Oh my god, what is that, look quickly!"
Everyone’s gaze shifted to this "new attraction", a faint, mysterious yellow stream of light, slowly tilted out from one direction.
Mysterious yellow, the most honorable color in China’s Imperial Era, a sacred and inviolable color, was now slowly revolving around two people, a man and a woman. They were none other than Gu Shaocheng and Zhou Chenxing.
The light was radiant and spectacular.
People were so surprised that they couldn’t help but cover their mouths.
"What is that?"
"I can’t see it clearly; it would be better if my cousin could stand up."
