43 We’re just a superficial couple
Five minutes later, Ye Anyao looked at the picture on her phone and walked toward the person in charge with a dark expression.
“Manager Chen…” Ye Anyao seemed to be hesitating. “I don’t know if I should say this… After all, the person who won first place is my elder sister, but if I don’t, Huoshen International’s reputation will be at stake.”
She took out Ye Beisheng’s design drafts and pretended to be innocent, “Look, this place, her design is exactly the same as Yunchu’s. This is plagiarism…”
“A plagiarized designer won first place in the design competition held by Huoshen International. If word gets out…
The person in charge’s expression darkened while Ye Anyao was secretly pleased.
Ye Beisheng, this time, I’m going to use Yunchu’s name to get you out of here!

At night.
Ye Beisheng did not forget that it was her senior brother’s birthday tomorrow. She still hadn’t prepared the gift that she had promised him, so she threw everything else to the back of her mind. It was more important to prepare a gift for her senior now.
At this time, in the study of the Misty Mountains Villa, Huo Shiting looked at the calendar and asked coldly, “Does she even know what day it is tomorrow?”
“This…” Lin Long’s voice trembled. “Although it’s your birthday tomorrow, didn’t madam just get married to you? It’s excusable that she doesn’t know!”
Huo Shiting sneered.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the study. Lin Long walked out of the room and asked, “Madam, what are you doing? This is a beautiful piece of jade. Do you want to make it into a bracelet?”
Ye Beisheng passed by the study room with a piece of jade in her hand.
Hearing Lin Long’s question, she raised her head and answered subconsciously, ”
“Someone’s birthday is coming up, and I’m planning to make a jade pendant for that person.”
A birthday gift?
Huo Shiting’s lips suddenly curved upwards.
This woman said that she didn’t care about him, but she still took it to heart that his birthday was coming soon.
Not bad.
Lin Long was delighted. “So, you’re preparing a birthday present for the Ninth Master? That’s great!”
Unexpectedly, Ye Beisheng stopped in her tracks, raised her head in embarrassment and said something earth-shattering.
“Huh? What? T… Ninth master’s birthday is coming soon?”
Crack-
Huo Shiting suddenly narrowed his eyes and a crack suddenly appeared on the cup in his hand.
Did this woman not know that his birthday was coming soon?
If not so, who was she preparing the gift for?
Lin Long’s expression froze instantly, feeling as if a great disaster was about to happen. “You, didn’t you prepare a birthday gift for the Ninth Master?”
Ye Beisheng was confused. “Of course not. I don’t even know when his birthday is. Besides, we’re just a couple on the surface. Why would I prepare a gift for him?”
Lin Long’s legs turned soft.
Huo Shiting sneered.
It turned out that they were only a superficial couple.
Only then did Ye Beisheng realize that Huo Shiting was also there. Her heart instantly stopped for a moment, and she gulped with difficulty. She spoke as if she didn’t remember what she had just said, like she had lost her memory.
She revealed a smile that was partly gentle and partly embarrassed. “Good evening, Ninth Master.”
Huo Shiting’s face was full of sarcasm.
He had just received a message from Jiang Yubai saying that their junior had prepared a gift for him. She had a surprise for him.
Even his junior sister knew that his birthday was coming up and had prepared a gift for him.
In the end, his wife was the one who had no idea about it. Instead, she was preparing gifts for other men but he ended up being empty handed.
Huo Shiting’s voice became colder. “Good job, Ye Beisheng.”
Lin Long was speechless.
‘Why does it feel like the words that the Ninth Master said had an actual meaning of saying that this woman is dead?’
Ye Beisheng chuckled and ignored the threat in his words. She ran off in small steps and slipped away from Huo Shiting’s eyes.
Tomorrow was her senior’s birthday and she had to stay up all night to polish the Jade pendant. Her time was precious, okay?
In her heart, her senior was much more important than Huo Shiting.
Looking at Ye Beisheng’s back as she left, Lin Long almost had a heart attack, “Ninth master, d-don’t be angry. Madam must have something urgent! That… I…”
Fine! Even he couldn’t make up any excuses for her!
Huo Shiting sneered. Forget it, he shouldn’t have had any expectations for this woman.
In his heart, his junior was much more important than Ye Beisheng.
In any case, it was enough that he would be getting a birthday gift from his junior.
As for Ye Beisheng’s jade pendant, he wondered which bastard would be receiving it.
