232 Everything Is An Illusion

It was Jiang Ye’s birthday today, and his photo appeared on the LED screen of Bo Yu Club.

“Do you like the gift I prepared for you?” Chu Yuzhou picked them up at the staircase, afraid that he wouldn’t see the surprise.

Jiang Ye thanked him. “I like it.” A faint smile appeared on his lips under the mask.

Although he couldn’t see his smile, Chu Yuzhou could read his emotions from his eyes.

He put his arm on Jiang Ye’s shoulder and walked into a private room not far away.

Lin Jiao played a happy birthday song.

As the music sounded, Pei Zhi lit the candle with the number 27 on it and listened to the voice that lingered in his ears.

“Happy birthday to you…” A group of people gathered around the long table and finished singing the song to the birthday boy.

Jiang Ye, who had not celebrated his birthday for many years, looked at their smiles and felt warm in his heart.

He pressed his palms together and made a wish. He blew out the candle on the cake and took the silver knife to cut it into ten pieces.

“Birthday boy, it’s time to drink.” Zhou Yanshen didn’t like sweet food. He took two bites and asked him to play dice.

Qian Yue patted his arm. “What about the gift?” If she hadn’t reminded him, he would have forgotten about it.

“Yue and I picked this out for you together.” A shopping bag was handed over to Jiang Ye, and the others took out the gifts they prepared in turn.

“Thank you.”

“We’re all family, so don’t stand on ceremony.” Shen Yi and Qu Shao helped him put the gifts aside and sit down to play dice.

The faint fragrance of wine permeated the air, and the lively atmosphere made them immersed in it. The chatter and laughter never stopped.

While the six men were having fun, Pei Yilan and the three women sat at the side and whispered to each other.

“I bought it.” She took out a square-shaped item from her pocket and asked anxiously, “Is two enough?”

Tang Ni, who had never experienced it before, blushed when she saw what Pei Yilan was holding.

Qian Yue said, “Enough.”

“Is there anything to take note of?”

“No.” Qian Yue said with a smile, “Haven’t you seen a lot of movies? Didn’t you learn anything?”

“But I’ve never put it into practice.” Pei Yilan put the item back to avoid being seen. “Just thinking about it makes me nervous.”

“It’s not happening yet. Don’t be nervous.”

“I can’t help myself.”

Lin Jiao was amused by her expression.

She glanced in Jiang Ye’s direction and thought of another question. “Is he going back to the filming crew tomorrow?”

“The day after tomorrow.”

“Then two isn’t enough.”

“I’ll see.” Pei Yilan poured beer into her glass and drank two mouthfuls. “He is not very interested in that.”

“Where did you get that conclusion?”

“Feelings?”

“Don’t be fooled by your feelings.” Lin Jiao had experienced how unreliable feelings could be. “Because it happens, what you feel is just an illusion.”

Pei Yilan felt that her ‘feeling’ was not wrong, but hearing Lin Jiao say that, she began to waver.

She put this matter to the back of her mind for the time being. She clinked glasses with them and stared at Tang Ni beside her.

“Ni, let me ask you something.”

“What is it?”

“How far have you progressed with Chu Yuzhou?”

Tang Ni was stunned by the unexpected question. Her voice was so soft that they couldn’t hear her clearly. “There is no development yet.”

“When are you going to say yes to him?”

“I…” She tightened her grip on the glass, keeping her thoughts to herself. “I don’t know.”

Lin Jiao’s gaze lingered on her red ear for two seconds. “Ni, you deserve his love.”

“Indeed.” Qian Yue smiled gently. “It’s not difficult to take that step. The key is whether you’re willing to take that step or not.”

They could tell that Tang Ni was tempted.

There were two reasons why she refused to take the step. One was her family background, and the other was her ears.

However, they did not say it bluntly. They only encouraged her and let her make her own choice.

“Yes, let me think about it.” Tang Ni glanced at Chu Yuzhou, who was looking at her sideways, and suppressed the throbbing in her heart.

Pei Yilan changed the topic. “I bought three nightgowns. See which one I should wear.”

“Do you have these rabbit ears?” Qian Yue asked, pointing to the headwear the second female model was wearing.

“Yes, I have.”

“Then this one.” Qian Yue shared a few more nightgowns in her collection. “Jiaojiao, the cat girl suits you.”

Lin Jiao hesitated and said, “It’s too revealing.” She did not dare to make Pei Zhi too crazy, afraid that she would be eaten.

“Why are you afraid of wearing it in front of him?”

“That’s right.” Pei Yilan opened the shopping website. “Ni, choose one too. I’ll place the order.”

...

“I don’t need it, do I?” Tang Ni’s cheeks turned red at the sight of the photos. She couldn’t even imagine what she would look like in it.

“You can wear it for yourself.”

In the end, they each chose one.

Pei Yilan picked up her glass. “Come and drink.” She winked playfully and approached the table where the six men were sitting.

The lively atmosphere lasted until midnight.

Jiang Ye, who was carrying many gifts, bade them farewell with the smell of alcohol and returned to Ming Xin mansion with Pei Yilan before one o’clock.

He had drunk a lot tonight. Fortunately, his alcohol tolerance was not bad. Otherwise, he would have passed out now.

“Jiang Ye, are you sleepy?” Pei Yilan was in a state of excitement, afraid that he would not be in the mood to do it.

“Not really.”

“Then go take a shower first.”

Jiang Ye didn’t notice anything wrong with her urging him.

...

He found his pajamas in the closet and went into the bathroom.

When the sound of running water came, Pei Yilan went to the second bedroom to prepare for tonight’s surprise.

She came out at the right time and approached him in a belted bathrobe. “Jiang Ye, you haven’t kissed me today.”

Jiang Ye leaned over and kissed her lips.

“Time to sleep.” He let go of her. Before his outstretched hand could touch the overhead light switch, she pulled him back.

“Don’t you want the surprise I prepared?”

“What surprise?”

Pei Yilan held his hand and placed it on her waist to let him feel what she was hiding there.

“Jiang Ye.” She followed Qian Yue’s instructions and said coquettishly, “Do you want to kiss me again?”

Jiang Ye’s eyes darkened.

He pulled her snow-white arm into his embrace and covered her red lips. “Two isn’t enough.”

After an unknown period of time, Pei Yilan drank the warm water he fed her to moisten her dry throat.

She wrapped her arms around his neck. “I want to take a shower.” She felt sticky all over her body.

“Right away.” Jiang Ye picked her up.
