After the cake was cut and the birthday girl was smothered with gifts, Huojin dragged her aside and asked eagerly, "What happened? Tell me everything!"
"About what?" Jia asked, confused.
"You and Mingshen and your lovely date~ What surprises did he give you?"
Bojing and Shilin had also joined, eager to know how her day had gone by.
"When did you change your profession to be a gossip aunty?" she dryly asked.
"Don't change the subject!"
"Nothing happened for your information!"
"You cannot fool my sharp senses," his eyes narrowed, "You always avoid Mingshen but today, that avoidance and ignorance looks extra suspicious."
She smiled dangerously. "Do you want me to punch your face?"
He gasped tearfully. "Did you two finally sleep together-Ow, ow!"
Jia had pinched his waist hard.
"Jeez. You are not fun at all. Did nothing seriously happen?"
The memories of the kisses were once again threatening to break her wall and invade but she did her best not to let them.
