Which play just now was even more exciting than the Peking Opera that they had invited today? Now that they had failed to achieve their goal and the curtain had fallen, they wanted to leave as soon as possible?
How can that be? Like them, I've also prepared a play today, but it hasn't even started yet …
Thinking of this, Gu Yusheng spoke before Liang Doukou could say goodbye. "Grandpa's birthday cake hasn't been cut yet. Since we're all friends, there's a small banquet room upstairs. If everyone is free, let's go there and cut the cake for Grandpa."
After a pause, Gu Yusheng added, "Is there anything urgent?"
Lu Bancheng answered, "What could be urgent? We're here today to celebrate Old Master Gu's birthday. Cutting the cake is an important task, so we have to do it before we leave."
Since Lu Bancheng had put it this way, Liang Doukou could only suppress her desire to leave a good impression on Old Master Gu, no matter how anxious she was to find Zhou Jing.
After entering the elevator, Gu Yusheng instructed Xiaowang, "Go to the lounge on the second floor and ask Grandpa to come over."
"Yes, Mr. Gu," Xiaowang replied and pressed the button for the second floor.
…
At Old Master Gu's birthday party, Liang Doukou's agent had caused such a scene, which had embarrassed the Liang family.
Although everyone was smiling and chatting in the small banquet room, and no one mentioned what had happened downstairs, the atmosphere was still somewhat unnatural.
Liang Doukou, who sat beside Mother Liang, did not speak much, and even her smile was a little stiff.
Before asking the waiter to bring the cake up, Mother Liang was afraid that Old Master Gu's impression of her daughter would plummet, so she finally changed her mind. She seemed to be reprimanding Liang Doukou, but in reality, she was pushing all the blame to Zhou Jing. "Xiaokou, your agent is simply too outrageous. You should quickly change her, lest she misleads you!"
As Mother Liang spoke, she quietly pinched Liang Doukou's waist. Liang Doukou understood her mother's meaning, and she lowered her head with a guilty look. "Yes, Mom, it's my fault this time. I didn't know this would happen …"
Liang Doukou raised her head as she spoke, her eyes welling up with tears. "… I'm really sorry for everyone, and even more so for Grandpa Gu."
The reason why no one mentioned what happened in the hall was because they didn't want to make things too awkward. Now that Mother Liang had reprimanded her daughter in front of everyone, and Liang Doukou had taken the initiative to apologize, even if everyone felt that Liang Doukou had done something wrong, they had already dispersed. Conversely, everyone began to comfort Liang Doukou.
"You can't blame Xiaokou. After all, she's not her agent …"
"That's right. Let bygones be bygones. Let's not talk about it anymore. You too, Mrs. Liang. Why are you scolding the child …"
"…"
In the face of everyone's attempts to smooth things over, Liang Doukou still looked pitiful with tears in her eyes, as if she had made a mistake and was at a loss for what to do. "No matter what, it's my fault. If I hadn't wanted to go up on stage to sing, perhaps I wouldn't have ruined Grandpa Gu's birthday party."
Gu Yusheng, who was sitting next to her and watching the scene with a calm expression, had an almost imperceptible smile on his lips. He lowered his head and, as if the people around him didn't exist, he grabbed Qin Zhi 'ai's hand and played with it.
