The Domineering Love: The Little Wife of the Expensive CEO
Chapter 264 I'm Sorry, Brother
"I'm sorry, brother." Nie Zheng heard the comfort in his words, "The incense in the incense making room should be dry tomorrow. Then I'll take the incense song to Mr. Jian and ask him to help point out my problem. I don't need to avoid suspicion this time."
"Ah."
Bai Chaochao livened up the atmosphere: "It's just a small competition, it's no big deal. Failure is the mother of success. Let's strive to win the championship next time we participate."
"Yes." Bian Xiaoyue also agreed, "This competition is already quite deceptive. The top ten perfume makers every year are not allowed to participate in the next competition. If we get tenth place this time, wouldn't it be a bit embarrassing? It would be so great to get first place next time!"
Chong Jianzhi held Nie Zheng's hand, and with a little force on his fingers, he pinched her palm twice: "You have been tired during this period. Wait for the results of the score review to come out. If it is really... it's a good time to take a break. Isn't Bai Chaochao's birthday coming soon?"
"Yes! You all must come to my birthday party!"
In fact, Nie Zheng was still a little depressed, so when she talked about the birthday party, she didn't notice that Bai Chaochao and Chong Jianzhi secretly looked at each other.
At that time she thought it was just a simple birthday party.
The review of the results would take four hours. Except for Richard who needed to go to the company to handle work, everyone else stayed at Chong's house, waiting for the final result.
A few people were bored, so they started playing mahjong on their mobile phones. Ever since the last time they played mahjong with old man Chen Hua in Bei'an, Nie Zheng picked up this game again and would play a few rounds during his breaks occasionally.
Chong Jianzhi still didn't know how to play mahjong, so he leaned back on the sofa and quietly took out his computer to do his work.
The atmosphere was peaceful and comfortable. In fact, Nie Zheng no longer cared about the results of the review. Her friends' comfort had made her feel relieved.
The results of the review came out, and they were the same as those announced this morning, and I was still eliminated.
Several people were secretly observing Nie Zheng's expression. As the person involved, she felt relieved.
"Keep playing! Play a few more rounds."
The first time I participated in the incense making competition, I was eliminated in the semi-finals.
She still has some regrets, but that's life. Regrets are inevitable, nothing is foolproof, and all opportunities that need to be fought for require long-term efforts and dedication as a foundation.
Quickly calming down, Nie Zheng spoke on the phone with Mr. Jian, who was now in Bei'an. After the semi-finals, all the judges needed to hold a meeting to discuss many details for the finals.
The two agreed to meet in three days.
Bai Chaochao’s birthday is in two days.
Nie Zheng had already prepared a birthday gift, a pair of pure gold bracelets. She knew her bestie's current financial situation, and nothing could be more thoughtful than gold. If all else failed, she could use it as an emergency gift.
Bai Chaochao took this birthday party very seriously and asked Nie Zheng to accompany her to look at venues twice.
She also actively asked Nie Zheng for her opinion on the venue layout, although in the end she didn't adopt much of it...
"Chao Chao, you are the protagonist tomorrow, it doesn't matter what I wear."
Nie Zheng was a little confused when Bai Chaochao repeatedly confirmed her body size. Besides, the dress for the birthday party was already made, and the size was not a big problem.
"I...I'm just nervous."
Bai Chaochao rubbed his head and smiled at her embarrassedly. There were some other emotions hidden in that smile, but Nie Zheng didn't notice it at that time.
On the day of the birthday party, Chong Jianzhi had to go on a business trip again. He had agreed to celebrate her birthday with Nie Zheng, but he had to break the promise again.
Nie Zheng knew that work was more important, so she didn't feel any unpleasantness and just asked him to go early and come back early.
On Bai Chaochao's birthday, Nie Zheng turned down all her work and prepared to celebrate her birthday properly.
During this period, my best friend suffered a lot of grievances and hardships because of family matters.
Now that the rain has passed and the sky is clear, Nie Zheng feels a little emotional, as if everything is a dream. Although it has been a long time, she still occasionally dreams about the time they spent together on campus. Bai Chaochao was carefree at that time, with light in her eyes. Unfortunately, that time has passed.
She only hoped that Bai Chaochao would have smooth sailing in the future and that her mother would stop causing trouble.
Although it was called a birthday party, it was actually not very large in scale. All the guests were friends that Bai Chaochao was familiar with. Nie Zheng also knew these people and they had some sort of friendship with each other.
As soon as she entered the banquet hall, she saw Bai Chaochao standing not far away. She was wearing a snow-white long dress and her back looked a little thin. She used to keep talking about losing weight but never succeeded. This time, she finally lost weight.
But Nie Zheng still felt a little distressed. If possible, she wished Bai Chaochao was still the slightly chubby girl she used to be.
"Zheng Zheng, you're here!"
Bai Chaochao turned around, and when he saw her, his eyes visibly brightened up, and he quickly ran towards her. Wearing high heels, his movements were inevitably a little clumsy, and he walked to her side and grabbed her arm.
"Zheng Zheng, you are so beautiful today."
Nie Zheng scratched her head a little embarrassedly. Today was Bai Chaochao's birthday party, and she was dressed so formally. She hesitated for a long time before going out. She was very conflicted when she had ordered the dress.
This dress is very beautiful, and the decoration is in her favorite style. The only drawback is that the design is a little too grand. If she wears it to attend her best friend's birthday party, it will inevitably seem like she is stealing the show.
"Am I dressed a little too formally..."
Bai Chaochao put his arm around her shoulders and said, "No way, it's so beautiful!"
Bai Chaochao smiled carelessly, his eyes fell on the door, and saw Bian Xiaoyue and Richard also coming over. They both said happy birthday to Bai Chaochao first! After giving the gift, Bian Xiaoyue's eyes fell on Nie Zheng.
"Zheng Zheng, stop being a perfume maker and just debut as a star." Bian Xiaoyue couldn't help but raise her hand and touch her delicate face. "With this beauty, you can definitely beat all the female stars in the entertainment industry."
Nie Zheng was almost embarrassed by her praise and waved her hands quickly, a blush appearing on her cheeks.
The birthday party began. Lou Fan made a grand appearance pushing a multi-layered cake that was taller than a person. The people around him were attracted and stared at him in amazement.
"Chao Chao, you said before that the cake shop you loved the most in high school went bankrupt, and you never had such delicious cakes again. I found the owner of the cake shop according to the address you gave, but unfortunately... the grandmother who made the cakes before has passed away. However, her granddaughter opened a new bakery in the new district. She said that her skills were taught by her grandmother. I ordered this cake from them, and I hope you can taste the flavor you loved the most before."
Bai Chaochao was stunned, somewhat incredulous. She had indeed told Lou Fan about the cake shop before, but it was just a casual chat and she didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Lou Fan was so attentive that he found the daughter of the grandmother in the cake shop...
Handing the cake knife to Bai Chaochao, she blinked twice, a little at a loss. She looked at Lou Fan, his eyes sparkling. It turned out that if you really like someone, you can't hide it. Even if you don't say it, the love will show in your eyes.
After cutting the first piece and taking the first bite, she suddenly felt a sour taste in her nose, which was the taste she liked.
I thought I would never be able to taste this flavor again.
It seemed that there was nothing that Lou Fan could not do. He could fulfill all her wishes, no matter how big or small. Even if she didn't say it, he would see it and keep it in mind.
At this moment, Nie Zheng realized once again that Lou Fan's feelings for her best friend were so pure.
