Chapter 326: It’s Her Birthday Party. Not Mine.
Children were sensitive at detecting adult emotions.
Tong Tong hugged her father’s neck and slumped unhappily against his shoulder. “Daddy, that Big Sis looks so pitiful!”
Just like her brother, she no longer liked that doll on the cake. The doll was nowhere near as pretty as the big sister who was sitting in the distance reading.
While everyone waited for Song Yaoyao to respond, she completely ignored them.
Zhou Manli was reaching the limit of her patience.
Although the crowd didn’t understand what had happened, they did not mind joining the commotion as they began studying her.
The girl was sitting on a chair and Song Rui was approaching her. As her quiet atmosphere was interrupted, she closed her book and looked up.
“What’s the matter?”
Song Rui’s temples twitched and anger appeared in his eyes.
Great! She wouldn’t even call him father.
“Today is your birthday. Go over and blow the candles with your sister.”
Song Jingwan noticed that everyone was looking at Song Yaoyao with admiration and secretly clenched her fists. She turned her head and said gently, “Yaoyao, everyone is waiting to eat the cake. Hurry over! Stop whining.”
“Yes.”
Song Rui nodded. “Yaoyao, there are so many people here today. Can you give me some face?”
His words made Song Yaoyao laugh. She tilted her head and asked, “I simply agreed to attend this party. When did I say that I would celebrate my birthday with Song Jingwan?”
They didn’t invite her friends, nor did they prepare any presents for her.
Moreover, amidst the thoughtful birthday decorations, which part belonged to her?
“Yaoyao!” Song Rui was furious. There was a trace of ridicule in his smile, but no happiness in his eyes.
In front of all these people, he had no way of backing down.
He lowered his voice and complained, “If you’re unhappy with something, why can’t we talk in private? Why are you whining now?”
“I’m not whining.”
Song Yaoyao furrowed her brows in confusion.
She pointed at the cake and the lights.
Song Jingwan, who was surrounded by people, was dressed in a formal dress like a princess.
“This is Song Jingwan’s birthday party, not mine. Look, there is only one figure on the cake which represents her, and the lights only have her name. So, why should I go over there?” Song Yaoyao asked.
Displayed on the light-up signs, were the words, ‘Princess Jingwan, Happy Birthday’.
Song Jingwan’s favorite lilies decorated the dessert table and the floral scent filled the air.
After they heard what Song Yaoyao said, the guests began to look around for a light-up sign with Song Yaoyao’s name.
But...
There was nothing!
“She’s right! There really is no sign! Do you see it anywhere?”
“Nope! The lawn is only so big. Don’t tell me they shoved it in a corner where no one could see it!”
“Sigh! I must say that the Songs aren’t very sincere this time! They gave birth to both girls, but the treatment is too different!”
“This is impossible!”
Song Rui shook his head as he interrupted their discussions. “I clearly watched the staff hang it up. How could it not be around?”
He spoke with certainty. In fact, to prevent Zhou Manli from destroying it, he had given the staff special instructions.
Yet, something still went wrong!
He was dizzy and about to spew blood in anger.
Zhou Manli, that idiot! Had she any idea why he invited Song Yaoyao?
Song Yaoyao was like a golden nugget right now. The Songs were in danger and plenty of people were trying to get a cut of their company. If they could lure Mr. Huo here as well, one word from him would be enough to bring Song Corporation back from the dead!
