Warm was stunned, no one had told her that today was Ye Feimo's birthday.

Suddenly she recalled what Ye Feimo had said: "As long as it’s before midnight." Wasn’t this talking about his birthday Other than a birthday, who would say such a thing Warm couldn’t help but strike herself on the head. She was so stupid.

She really hadn’t been paying attention. Had Ye Feimo deliberately invited her to celebrate his birthday with him

But what did she do in return

Guilt gnawed at her heart like a snake.

"I didn't know," Warm said hesitantly.

Cai Xiaojing replied, "I also forgot. Just now the Mrs. Ye asked us why we hadn’t arrived yet, and I realized that today is Ye's birthday."

"What do you mean" Warm’s hands and feet went cold as her mind went blank. She vaguely knew she had missed something important and done a very foolish thing.

But how was this related to Mrs. Ye

"Are you stupid Mr. Ye doesn’t like fuss, he celebrates his birthday every year with his family without inviting anyone else. Today your schedule is late, so the Ye Family specially held a banquet tonight for you, and all of them are there. But you didn’t show up. I’m telling you, Warm, where did your brain go How could you forget such an important thing You have poor memory anyway—just tell me if something like this happens, and I’ll remind you. What’s wrong with you"

Warm trembled all over in shock, unable to hear what Cai Xiaojing was saying.

Today is Ye Feimo's birthday, and he plans to take her home. Is that what it means

Why

Warmth felt a pang in her heart; she never knew that today was Ye Feimo's birthday or that he planned to take her home tonight. He had never mentioned anything like this, only saying that they were having dinner.

If he had said it was his birthday, she would have remembered it clearly and started thinking about gifts for him today.

But since he didn't say anything, she assumed it was just a normal dinner and quickly forgot all about it.

Warmth felt extremely guilty.

But why does Ye Feimo want to take her home

"Sis Xiao Jing, do you know where he is Is he at the Ye family residence" Warmth asked.

"Lady Ye said she went to pick him up but neither of them returned. She also asked me where you two were, and I just made something up, saying that you guys are enjoying your private time together. Think hard about where Second Young Master usually likes to go; his phone is unreachable," Cai Xiao Jing replied. "Your phone is on the bedside table in the bedroom. Where did he take you"

After hanging up, Warmth felt a chill run through her heart.

She gritted her teeth and dialed Ye Feimo's number; it was turned off. He had disappeared without a trace, leaving Warmth feeling frustrated. Whenever she thought of Ye Feimo's cold face, it was as if ants were gnawing at her heart, making her feel like she had committed an unforgivable sin.

She also didn't know why she harbored such absurd thoughts, as though today was a crucial day and she had let him down.

Warm couldn't sit still anymore. She changed her coat, grabbed her phone, and hurriedly went downstairs. She didn't know where to find Ye Feimo or how to look for him. During the time they had been living together, she realized that she knew so little about Ye Feimo.

Other than knowing what he liked and disliked eating, she didn’t know anything else. She was also clueless about his daily activities and hobbies.

Warm called Lin Ning. Today was Fei Mo’s birthday; perhaps he would be hanging out with his buddies to celebrate it.

"It's the middle of the night, Little White Rabbit! Can't you let me sleep" Lin Ning groaned, but Warm could hear noisy music coming from his phone as if he were in a nightclub. She was speechless; this must be what sleeping looked like for him.

Who could possibly sleep under these circumstances

"Director Lin, is Ye Feimo with you" Warm didn’t have time to complain and asked hurriedly instead.

The director replied, "Fei Mo Today’s his birthday. He should be at home celebrating it with his family. Wait a minute… That's not right! Didn't he say that he was going to take you home today to celebrate your birthdays together Why aren’t the two of you together"

Warm felt a twinge of pain in her heart; everyone else knew about Ye Feimo’s plan to bring her home, but she didn’t.

"I had something come up today and couldn't make it. He seemed not to have gone back either as his phone is switched off. I can't find him anywhere. Did he contact you" Warm asked anxiously without noticing how worried and frantic her voice sounded.

If it were the usual calm and collected Warm, she would probably have thought that there was no big deal about birthdays; people celebrated them every day. Ye Feimo was a grown man now; missing out on just one birthday wouldn’t matter much. Besides, why would he bring her home for no reason

Her cancelling their date wasn't such a big issue either; she could apologize to him later.

She had no reason to worry about him at all.

However, tonight's warmth in her heart was complicated. Perhaps she felt as if being with Fang Liucheng and breaking their date was akin to an extramarital affair, betraying Ye Feimo. She also noticed that Ye Feimo had a peculiar temperament, and now that he was missing, how could she not worry

"Sleep soundly, it's no big deal if you missed the appointment. Her birthday isn't so important anyway; it’s already past midnight. Even if you find him, it won’t help. Ye Feimo might return on his own soon enough. Go to sleep, go to sleep," Director Lin said nonchalantly.

"Director Lin, please, where does Ye Feimo usually like to go Especially when he’s feeling down or troubled" She couldn't be as indifferent as Director Lin.

Director Lin paused before saying, "Feimo likes playing golf, but it's unlikely at this hour. He also enjoys walking along Huai River. Why don’t you try looking there"

"Okay, thank you, Director Lin." Warm sincerely thanked Lin Ning and then called a car to head for the riverside.

In the dance hall, Director Lin whistled, and Tang Shuwen gave him a look of disdain. "Why are you deceiving Warm"

"I’m just happy!" Lin Ning laughed.

Aside from Tang Shuwen, Lin Ning, and Lin Diyun, Su Ran were all Ye Feimo’s close buddies.

"If Feimo finds out, you should be careful. He might retaliate," Su Ran joked.

Lin Diyun smiled lightly. "Han Bi just called to arrange a date with Feimo. It's rare for a woman to remember his birthday; putting in some genuine effort in this act is worth it."

Tang Shuwen laughed and said, "I bet if she calls again, Ye Feimo will definitely show up."plashed awake, then lost consciousness again, and continued being splashed awake.Daniel repeatedly asked if anyone recognized the person in the photo, but Warm remained silent, unable to speak.The gen...
