After a long while, Qiao Anhao lifted her head from her knees. The tears on her face had dried, and her eyes were red. Because she had been squatting for a long time, when she stood up, her legs went numb, and she fell to the floor.
Qiao Anhao bit the corner of her lips, and climbed up from the floor. She glanced at the time on the wall. It was already twelve fifteen, his birthday was over.
Qiao Anhao stood there in a daze for a while, before lowering her eyes and walking out of the bedroom.
The villa was empty, and only her footsteps could be heard. Qiao Anhao felt an indescribable loneliness in her heart.
She went to the storage room and pulled out a cardboard box. When she returned to the bedroom, she knelt on the floor and picked up the candles one by one, placing them into the box. She carried it downstairs and placed it in the storage room.
When she returned to the bedroom, Qiao Anhao held a sharp metal wire in her hand. She aimed at the balloons on the wall and stabbed them one by one. The popping sounds of the balloons rang in her ears one after another, but she didn't seem to be frightened at all. Her expression was calm, and her fingers continuously peeled off the balloons, stuffing them into the trash bag.
After cleaning up the bedroom, Qiao Anhao carried the trash bag downstairs. Just as she was about to throw it out, she thought about the cake in the fridge. She paused for a second, then walked to the dining room. She opened the fridge and took out the cake. She clenched her fists slightly, and the next second, she stuffed the entire cake into the trash bag. She carried it out of the room and threw it into the trash can outside.
When Qiao Anhao was done, it was already one in the morning. She removed her makeup, took a shower, and climbed into bed.
She didn't know if it was because Lu Jinnian had been coming back every night, but she felt as though something was missing. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. When she finally managed to fall asleep, she suddenly woke up not long after. She glanced out the window and saw that the sky was already brightening. The other side of the bed was empty. It was obvious that Lu Jinnian hadn't come back.
Qiao Anhao hugged the blanket and sat on the bed for a while. When she heard the sound of the door being unlocked downstairs, she instinctively threw off the blanket and jumped off the bed. Barefooted, she ran into the bedroom. Just as she reached the staircase, she saw Madam Chen walking towards the kitchen with bags of all sizes.
Qiao Anhao's heart sank. She stood on the spot for a while, then turned to head back to the bedroom. She wasn't the least bit sleepy, so she decided to wash up. Remembering that she had to return to the set today, she gave Zhao Meng a call, telling her to pick her up early.
Lu Jinnian didn't sleep the entire night. It wasn't until seven in the morning when he heard the commotion outside his office that he snapped out of his daze. He went to the bedroom at the back to take a shower and change into a fresh set of clothes.
At nine o 'clock, a morning meeting was held. It was only ten o' clock when it ended.
Since they were heading to the set of "Alluring Times", he had left his car with Qiao Anhao. The other cars were either at Mian Xiu Garden or Mount Yi villa. Hence, after the meeting, he got his assistant to call a car to send them to Mian Xiu Garden.
Even though Qiao Anhao told Zhao Meng to pick her up early, when Zhao Meng arrived, it was already close to eleven in the afternoon.
