Falling tonight

Chapter 95 Birthday
Mu Zhou's smile deepened. He leaned forward and slowly poured red wine into her glass. "I only know that you will only reject me on that kind of thing. You can't find any reason to reject me on other things."

……

It will really destroy the romantic atmosphere of flowers and red wine, and everything will be colored.

Zhao Rou glared at him and changed the subject.

"I contacted a partner who used to be in country M in the afternoon, and she agreed to come over and work with me. The remaining designers will be easy to deal with, and there should be no problem with staffing."

Mu Zhou poured a glass of red wine in front of him and put the decanter aside. He had no objection to Zhao Rou's words.

Zhao Rou continued, "Do you have any other requests?"

"You can just arrange the affairs. Sign the agreement first."

With that said, Mu Zhou conjured a document from behind and handed it to Zhao Rou through the tableware.

The square table was very large. Zhao Rou took it and put it on the table on the right to look at it.

It was an equity cooperation agreement. She glanced at it briefly and fixed her gaze on the second page.

"You want me to open this design studio in my own name and you sign this private cooperation agreement with me?"

It is written in black and white on the paper. From the registration and establishment of the company to the external announcement, only Zhao Rou's name is from the beginning to the end. Mu Zhou does not appear in any link.

In other words, he contributed money, but anonymously?

"Well, you are a professional in the industry. Setting up a studio in your own name will be more conducive to the spread of your personal brand."

"It's good, but the jewelry design industry needs enough capital and influence in the early stage to quickly open up the market in the upper class. Only you...have the capital."

Speaking of this, Zhao Rou's face fell a little, and she had to admit that her career can only go smoothly when she has a mountain at her back, and Muzhou is this mountain.

"Don't worry, I will take you to discuss resources together."

Zhao Rou felt relieved and flipped through a few more pages. She didn't see any problems, so she signed the two agreements and handed them to him, signaling for him to sign.

Mu Zhou was very satisfied with her straightforwardness. He took the agreement and took out a signature pen, signed his name neatly with the pen and paper, and returned one copy to Zhao Rou.

"Okay, this matter is done, let's eat first."

Muzhou asked the waiter to serve two steaks and salad.

The two sat among red wine and flowers and finished their dinner quietly.

Zhao Rou always felt weird.

The atmosphere on the dining table was originally very beautiful, but the man who usually didn't talk much was stunned to say nothing during the meal.

I just looked up occasionally, and there was an inexplicable tenderness in her eyes.

After he looked at it a few more times, Zhao Rou suppressed the doubts in her heart, quickly put the last piece of steak into her mouth, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

The man cut the steak slowly and stared at her frankly, "You're in a good mood today, how about you?"

"what?"

What nonsense is he talking about.

"Is it because I agreed to open a studio with you?" Zhao Rou was a little funny, "Isn't this a huge deal for you and your group? Is it worth being happy?"

His career was booming, so he couldn't care less about her small work in the design industry.

"Well," Mu Zhou forked another salad and looked at her with a faint smile, "Are you happy?"

"I'm very happy." Zhao Rou replied without hesitation.At least I can settle down my career in Asia today.

When Mu Zhou heard her answer, his eyebrows widened and he pressed the bell in the private room and outside, "Okay, let's start today's theme."

When the bell rang, the service staff waiting outside filed in and removed the tableware from the table one by one. Then Gao Songqing brought in a large white square gift box and placed it on the table. They all quickly left the private room. .

"What is this for?"

Before Zhao Rou could react, the lights in the private room suddenly dimmed, and accompanied by a burst of melodious soft music, her eyes fell into darkness.

She suddenly became frightened, and an inexplicable pressure almost jumped out of her heart.

With a swish, she stood up from the chair and reached forward, trying to find Mu Zhou opposite in the darkness.

Before her hand touched Mu Zhou, there was a rustling sound in her ears, and she felt that the gift box in front of the table was being opened by Mu Zhou.

The next moment, a crystal-clear vertical glass ornament with colorful streams of light appeared in front of Zhao Rou.

It lies quietly on the circular base, the sound of music comes from here, and the glass gently rotates with the music.

In the darkness, the gorgeous multi-colored glass shines with light of different colors. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple intersect with each other, blend with each other, and transform into each other. They are like bright stars in the dark night. They are beautiful and graceful. The slight light lightly depicts the scenery in the private room. contour.

The two people next to the glass ornaments had different expressions.

"You..." Zhao Rou raised her head suddenly, covering the sound of her heart beating wildly in her chest, and an incredible guess came to her mind.

The light cast by the rotating glass ornaments danced on Mu Zhou's calm and handsome face. He looked at her with a slight smile, his eyes sparkling, much more dazzling than Liuli.

He said, "Happy birthday, Xiaorou."

happy Birthday.

Today is my birthday.

He knows, he remembers.

I can't describe what I felt, sourness, grievance, powerlessness, and unprecedented relief and touch all came to my heart.

I don’t know when her eyes got wet. When Zhao Rou blinked, tears kept flowing like broken beads.

Seeing that she started to shed tears silently, Mu Zhou, who was smiling at first, felt flustered. He walked around the table and walked to Zhao Rou in a few steps. He held her shoulders and joked, "So touched? Are you still crying?" .”

Zhao Rou looked up at him blankly, her eyes filled with mist.

After a long time, she made a low voice from her nasal cavity, "Thank you."

I never had a birthday.

Seeing this, Mu Zhou raised his hand helplessly, gently scratched the tears on her face with his fingers, and coaxed, "Stop crying, okay? Today is a happy day."

He hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, his lips almost touching her ears, and his deep magnetic voice came through the eardrums, "Xiaorou, answer me now, do you like this?"

He also asked her this when he brought her in. It turned out that it was also a preparation for her birthday.

Zhao Rou couldn't stop crying. She had never received this kind of attention, celebration, or gift.

She leaned in his arms obediently, staring at the colorful glass in front of her, her heart trembling, her fingertips trembling unconsciously, "I like it, I like it all."

Her mother died in childbirth, and she has been told since she was a child that the day she was born was the anniversary of her mother's death. How could she celebrate her birthday?
Therefore, for more than twenty years, Zhao Rou has not experienced what it is like to have a birthday.

But at this moment, at least Zhao Rou knew that what Mu Zhou made her experience tonight was free of pain and uneasiness, guilt and blame, and even the slightest surprise.
