After the scumbag cheated on me, I turned around and married the heir to a wealthy family.

As the piano music paused, a light shone on the man playing the piano in the darkness. It was Huo Jingcheng.

Zhu Jin happened to meet Huo Jingcheng's eyes when he looked at them. The man's black obsidian eyes were like a deep and silent abyss, dragging her deep into the depths, where she would never be able to turn over.

"Don't you like it?" came the man's low and sweet voice.

He held a bouquet of red roses in his arms and drove the wheelchair slowly closer.

"What day is today?" Zhu Jin asked in surprise.

Huo Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, "You even forgot about it?"

Zhu Jin shook his head.

She really didn't remember.

It's not a wedding anniversary recently, Valentine's Day, and Huo Jingcheng's birthday isn't today either.

So why did he specially prepare this banquet.

Huo Jingcheng handed the bouquet forward to Zhu Jin's arms, "You forgot, but I didn't forget. Tomorrow is your birthday. I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow to celebrate you. But tomorrow I have something to do and I have to leave the capital for a while."

Zhu Jin didn't expect that the other party would remember his birthday, and a sourness suddenly filled his heart that made his eyes heat up.

Since the death of her mother, the Zhu family has never celebrated their birthday.

Zhu Yuan's birthday is always the only one that is held grandly to celebrate every year.

Over time, she also forgot when her birthday was.

The elegant fragrance of roses hit his nostrils. Zhu Jin lowered his head and took a deep breath. A bright smile bloomed on his face, bright enough to dazzle Huo Jingcheng's eyes.

"Thank you, Huo Jingcheng."

She was sincere in her gratitude.

Maybe Zhu Jin's smile was so dazzling that Huo Jingcheng couldn't help but move his eyes away and coughed lightly, "Well, since you want to express your gratitude, you must show your sincerity."

Zhu Jin was stunned, then pursed his lips for a moment and leaned forward, placing a kiss on the man's handsome face.

"I'll give you some interest first, and I'll give you the rest when I get back." Zhu Jin whispered, his earlobes turning red.

She coughed lightly and rubbed her earlobes, and took the initiative to hold the man's hand.

"Let's eat first."

"Ah."

The two of them sat down, and Huo Jingcheng took out the jewelry box he had prepared from his pocket and pushed it in front of Zhu Jin.

Zhu Jin was stunned and looked at Huo Jingcheng in confusion.

"Birthday gift." Huo Jingcheng said.

birthday present……

She hadn't received one in years.

At first, I would occasionally buy myself cakes and trinkets as birthday gifts.

Later, as I got older, this little trick of fooling myself was no longer necessary.

Zhu Jin never thought that one day he would be able to get the birthday gift he had wished for many years ago.

"What's wrong?" Huo Jingcheng asked concerned.

He saw that Zhu Jin's hand had been placed on the box but he had not opened it.

"Remembering some past events." Zhu Jinyi said in detail what happened over the years.

The past will eventually pass, and she will have a better future.

The Zhu family has long had nothing to do with her.

Zhu Jin lowered his eyes and looked at the jewelry box in his hand. The box was heavy and had some weight. The things inside were obviously not rings and bracelets.

necklace?

These two words popped into Zhu Jin's mind.

The jewelry box was slowly opened, and the suspicion in his mind was verified.

The necklace lying quietly bloomed with her own brilliance at this moment.

Familiar necklace, familiar design style.

But why is this necklace here?

Zhu Jin looked at Huo Jingcheng in surprise, his mouth opened, but he didn't know where to start asking.

"Don't worry." Huo Jingcheng seemed to see Zhu Jin's worry in her eyes. He put his generous palm on the back of Zhu Jin's hand and patted it twice.

"I didn't steal the necklace. I just happened to buy it at the auction house by chance."

"I heard you say you liked Jennifer's necklace last time. I think you should like this necklace."

Huo Jingcheng didn't speak much, but every word touched Zhu Jin's heart.

She didn't expect that her casual words would be taken to heart by the other party.

Zhu Jin had seen this necklace before, so it was still shining brightly after many years.

Her fingers gently touched the gemstones with a slight trembling.

It’s been so many years, long time no see.

"Thank you, I like it very much."

Zhu Jin paused and asked worriedly, "But, after all, this necklace was lost by the Shen family. Grandpa and grandma should be worried, right? Otherwise, should we give it back?"

The Shen family was visibly anxious when they lost this necklace.

However, Huo Jingcheng needs the help of the Shen family.

If the Shen family knew that Huo Jingcheng bought the necklace at a high price and did not return it, would it affect the relationship between the two parties?

Will the two elders of the Shen family be sad because of Huo Jingcheng's behavior?

"I have a lot of Jennifer's necklaces." Zhu Jin closed the jewelry box, pushed it in front of Huo Jingcheng, and said seriously, "I'm very happy that you can remember my birthday and love, and carefully prepare a birthday gift for me."

"But this necklace is too valuable, I can't have it."

"I think the Shen family needs this necklace more than I do."

Huo Jingcheng put his hand on Zhu Jin's.

The back of the woman's hand was tender and tender, and he pushed the jewelry back in accordance with his movements.

"Don't think too much. Since I'm ready to give it to you, it's naturally yours."

"Yes, the Shen family..."

"Are you worried about me?"

Zhu Jin was startled by the straightforward words, and his ears instantly turned red.

After a while, Zhu Jin licked his dry lips and said the word "hmm" as a response.

In the old house of the Huo family, the reactions of the third and fourth bedrooms to Huo Jingcheng's return to the Huo family made Zhu Jin realize that this was not an easy task.

Mr. Huo also mentioned cooperation with the Shen family.

Although she and Huo Jingcheng were only in a contractual marriage, she could not remain indifferent to the other party's concern for her and accept all his good intentions without responding.

"It's okay." Huo Jingcheng said, "I told my uncle about the necklace. They are both sensible people. They need to find trouble with the thief, not me."

"Moreover."

Huo Jingcheng added, "As the Shen family needs this treasure for exhibition and collection, I asked Assistant Chen to take a new photo and send it over."

"what?"

Huo Jingcheng clicked on the jewelry box, "Anyway, this is the necklace I gave you. Just keep it yourself."

Zhu Jin opened his mouth, but Huo Jingcheng got there first.

"Of course there is no reason to take back what I gave you."

Zhu Jin knew what the other party meant so he didn't shirk anymore and accepted the gift, but in his heart he was wondering what gift he should give Huo Jingcheng for his birthday.

"What are you still thinking about?"

Zhu Jin felt a chill on her face. When she came to her senses, she saw the cream on Huo Jingcheng's fingers.

Her eyes widened in shock. She had no idea that Huo Jingcheng would do such a childish thing as smearing cream on her face.
