'Guiying' could only stare at him, speechless. 'She' could get where he was going with this but at the same time, 'she' couldn't make heads or tails of it either.

"Are you serious?"

Zixin obediently nodded but with guilt across his face.

'Her' mouth twitched heavily. "...I don't know how to respond to this."

"C-Can you please forgive me?" Zixin sincerely asked.

"I am not even sure what I should be forgiving you for."

"For kissing-"

"No, I still don't get it so let's leave it at that."

"But…"

'Guiying' snorted. "I already get it that you like Guiying. You were crystal clear about your feelings. There is nothing for me to get offended about. Your feelings are your feelings and you kissed the woman you like. You don't have to worry about me."

"How can I not?" He pursed his lips.

"Because I am not supposed to exist in the first place," 'she' shrugged and said in a matter of fact tone. "If Guiying had led a happy life, I wouldn't have been born in the first place."

It struck Zixin hard in his heart because it felt as if she was invalidating 'her' existence. A tinge of loneliness enveloped his heart, but no words of comfort escaped his mouth.

On the other hand, Chyou had difficulty in providing comforting words to Cheng Yin too as she talked to him on the phone.

"Chyou, I miss you. When will your celebration be over? Let's go on a date tonight!"

She sighed. "Today won't be possible. You know it's Sky's anniversary today."

Cheng Yin was in a sour mood on the other side as he still remembered how Jun had repeatedly threatened him. He had given him three months to prove himself out of which, almost a month and a half was already over. Some more time and he won't have to worry about the knife hanging on his neck.

She chuckled. "But don't feel down. Let's plan something for tomorrow-"

The crowd cheered on the other side for Jun and Ai to dance, and it became quite rowdy.

"I want to see Sir Liu dance…" one squealed.

"Yeah, he would look so handsome right?" The female employees gushed with joy.

Liu Hai took charge of this dancing project. "Let's all dance too! Everybody! Find your dance partner and come to the center stage!"

His gaze fell on everyone one by one and looking at Chyou to be standing at a corner, he furiously waved his hand. "Chyou! Here! Here! Hereeeeee!"

Chyou's mouth twitched.

He calls me like I have lost my way…

She kept Cheng Yin on hold. "You carry on, Grandpa. I don't have a partner anyway…"

"Ah? Preposterous! Where is your boyfriend?"

"Ah well Yin isn't-"

"Gu Yating!" Liu Hai beckoned him with his booming, excited voice. "What are you doing there at that corner when your girlfriend is here in this corner!" He scolded him.

Yating, who was suddenly and unexpectedly called out and more so as somebody's boyfriend, lost his balance. "Huh? Girlfriend?"

"Chyou is over there and you are over there! Did you two fight? Keep it aside for now. It's time to dance!" He beamed.

Chyou and Yating became the center of attention instantly with this announcement.

"Huh? Huh? Zhu Chyou and Gu Yating are dating?"

"When?"

"How?"

"Why?"

"Isn't Zhu Chyou dating Cheng Yin!" The endless stream of questions floated in the air furiously.

"Wait, did they already break up!?"

Chyou's jaw dropped wide. "Grandpa, what are you saying!?

The pointed gazes at Yating made him uncomfortable. He choked as he clarified. "Grandpa, we are not dating."

Liu Hai frowned. "You are not?"

"Yeah."

Liu Hai tilted his head and then suddenly widened his eyes as if he came to an understanding. "Ah! I see now!"

Chyou sighed in relief. "Thank God-"

"So the brat will confess later. You should have told me before!" He whined as if he was wronged.

Chyou - "..."

Yating - "..."

Jun looked away as if he had nothing to do with this.

Chyou patted the sweat on her forehead. "T-There is no plan to confess, Grandpa. You are misunderstanding."

Yating smiled or at least tried amidst the pointed and suspicious stares. "We are just friends, Grandpa."

"Bah! Friends my foot!" Liu Hai snorted and waved his hand in dismissal. "You cannot fool my eyes. You might not be dating now but you will definitely do so in the future. I absolutely cannot be wrong in this. I have a special antenna for sniffing out couples!" He proudly said.

"Like Nana and Jing and Jin and Ai," Jinhai calmly threw shade at his own father and exposed him.

"..."

"You dare challenge your father, you brat!" Liu Hai glared at him. "In the end, they turned out to be my daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law anyway, so I am not totally wrong! Just the husbands changed a bit here and there…" he averted his eyes.

Jun grimaced.

'Just' he says…

He sneered. "How about we change Grandma's husband too just a bit here and there?"

"..."

Liu Chunhua stabbed further in his wound. "I don't mind."

Everybody burst out into laughter.

"You brat! You are just like your stinky father throwing shade at me! Is this how you talk to your elders!?" He harrumphed.

Jun rolled his eyes.

Liu Hai coughed and pulled Chyou and Yating to join before anybody else would throw a taunt at him again.

In the background unknown to anybody, Cheng Yin had heard everything.

That Gu Yating is also there…!?

Mistaking Chyou to be his girlfriend was like a strike to his pride.

"Chyou…What is going on?"

"Yin, what? I cannot hear you! Wait, I will call you back later."

The call ended without any further word from her. Cheng Yin anxiously looked at the calendar and the date of his upcoming birthday.

T-This is just today! Yeah just today… He gritted his teeth. There would be no reason to see Gu Yating after this!

At Sky, Jun wrapped Ai around his arms as they danced together. With a smile on his lips, he peered into her beautiful eyes, enjoying this happy moment with her.

Same as Yunru who courageously asked Huan to dance with her.

Xing Bi seemed to grudgingly dance with Nian though her heart was jumping with embarrassment.

Only Jin stayed at a side who didn't seem to know what he was supposed to do. He only kept throwing glances at Shui but then would quickly look away, making Jinhai inwardly shake his head.

But the joyful atmosphere broke as the reporters receive a text, which made their eyes pop out, aghast.

"What is this? President Chen Yunru betrayed Sky!?"
