Chapter 4

Happy Birthday, Hubby

Dont call me that! The man interrupted her with his deep voice.

Gong Mo was startled and dared not say anything else.

The man smiled with satisfaction. What should he do? Should he suck up to Sheng Donglin and let bygones be bygones? Heheh, what a joke that would be. Ever since that, Sheng Donglins hatred for him ran bone-deep!

The man lowered his head and gave Go Mong a peck on the lips. Gong Mo shouted pitifully, Why are you doing this, Donglin?

The man frowned and ordered, Call me Hubby! He didnt want her to call another mans name right now.

Hubby? Gong Mo repeated, puzzled. An understanding came over her a moment later as she realized the implication of the word and she leaned back into his embrace shyly and said gently, Hubby

Was this why he didnt want her to call his name?

Downstairs, Su Mo and Sheng Donglin did the opening dance together because of Gong Mos absence, to the praise of the guests. Su Mo had studied abroad, graduated from a prestigious university, and had a first-rate family background. She should be the perfect match for Sheng Donglin!

There were quite a few people who congratulated Sheng Zhongtian as well and he calmly accepted their well wishes. Everyone had completely forgotten about the girl Sheng Donglin had introduced to them earlier called Gong Mo.

The guests gradually left as the evening birthday party drew to a close. After the Sheng Family sent them off, Sheng Zhongtian suddenly remembered something. Where is Nanxuan? Didnt he come back? Why havent I seen him the entire night?

A surprised Mrs. Sheng asked, Nanxuans back? Where is he?

Hes probably resting in his room, Sheng Donglin said. He just got off the plane.

Just then, a light turned on in one of the rooms upstairs. Everyone looked up. Wasnt that Sheng Nanxuans room?

Sheng Zhongtian walked towards the living room and said in a low voice, Tell him to get down here!

Sheng Donglin said, Its late. Things can wait until tomorrow.

Tomorrow? Who knows where hell run off to by then!

The family walked into the living room. To their surprise, they found someone lying on the sofa.

Mrs. Sheng called out, Momo?

Su Mo moved and crawled up from the sofa. Putting on an air of self-blame, she said, Im sorry, I was a little dizzy from earlier so I came in here to sit down, but accidentally fell asleep instead Has the party ended? Have my parents left?!
