Back in her room, Qiao Anhao cut the cake and scooped out a big piece. Just as she was about to head upstairs, the phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was from the front desk. "Is Miss Qiao Anhao there?"
Qiao Anhao held the cake in one hand and the phone in the other. She tilted her body and replied, "Yes."
"Hello Miss Qiao, there are two packages for you at the front desk. Would you like me to send them over now?"
Qiao Anhao knew that one of them was a birthday gift from Qiao Anxia. Qiao Anxia had originally wanted to personally deliver it, but because she was in Shanghai on a business trip, she had to send it over. As for the other one... Qiao Anhao furrowed her delicate brows, curious as to who had sent it. However, as she was in a rush to find Lu Jinnian, she didn't think too much about it. She politely replied, "Sorry to trouble you."
After hanging up, Qiao Anhao reminded Zhao Meng, who was wolfing down the cake like a hungry cat, to help her receive the package. As she spoke, she impatiently walked towards the door. Before she pulled the door open, she paused for a moment, then turned back into the room. She placed the cake down, tidied her hair, and looked at herself in the mirror for a long while. She took out her lip gloss and applied a light layer of powder. She pursed her lips, and when she saw that she looked beautiful and energetic, she lifted the cake in satisfaction and finally left the hotel room.
When Qiao Anhao reached Lu Jinnian's room on the top floor, she didn't forget to take out her phone and use it as a mirror to look at herself. After confirming that there weren't any mistakes, she raised her hand to press the doorbell.
The person who opened the door was Lu Jinnian's assistant. When he saw that it was Qiao Anhao, he immediately moved aside. "Miss Qiao, please come in."
Qiao Anhao carried the cake into the room. After looking around, she didn't see Lu Jinnian in the living room. "Where's Lu Jinnian?"
"Mr. Lu is in the bedroom." The assistant pointed at the bedroom, then walked over. He raised his hand and knocked on the door. When Lu Jinnian replied calmly, "Come in", he then pushed the bedroom door open.
Lu Jinnian sat in front of his desk, not even turning his head to look at the door. He just stared unwaveringly at the computer screen, as though the person who had just knocked had nothing to do with him.
The assistant was already used to his calm demeanor, so he added in a low voice, "Mr. Lu, Miss Qiao is here."
The moment the assistant finished speaking, Lu Jinnian moved his face away from the computer screen, his gaze landing on Qiao Anhao, who had just walked to the bedroom door.
Qiao Anhao immediately gave him a dazzling smile. At that moment, the sun was setting. Through the window, the bright yellow sunlight shone on her face, making her smile seem a little unreal. Lu Jinnian was in a daze for a moment, then he stood up from his chair. His voice was so soft that even he didn't realize it. "Why are you here?"
Qiao Anhao smiled at him, raising the cake in her hands. "I just cut the cake, I brought you a piece."
Lu Jinnian hurriedly pushed away the scattered documents on his desk, creating an empty space.
Qiao Anhao's birthday cake had been ordered by her assistant last night, so when he knew that it was her birthday, he immediately gave her his blessings. "Miss Qiao, happy birthday."
