After eating, Aurelia felt a little thirsty, so she took a sip of water..
Just as she took a sip, her name appeared on the screen.
Shortly after, as the patterns on the screen changed, fireworks filled the entire screen.
In accordance with the event’s technology theme, Aurelia had installed mosaic screens in various sizes
throughout the venue and had even suspended large screens on the ceiling
As the fireworks unfolded, the trajectories of the falling fireworks extended along the surrounding
screens before finally disappearing on the ground–level glass screens.
This created the illusion of a real fireworks display. Surprisingly, at the end, a signature read, “Gift from
Leslie.”
Aurelia was so surprised that she almost choked on her water. She covered her mouth and swallowed
hard, then turned to look at Leslie.
Leslie rubbed his forehead. He wished he were dead… No, he wished he could kill someone.
Aurelia smiled. “Thank you. Did you know it’s my birthday today?”
Leslie was startled. “What?”
Aurelia took out her new ID card. “You must have seen it last time, right? Thank you. I haven’t
celebrated my birthday for a long time. But wouldn’t your company be upset with you?”

Since her father’s death, Aurelia had been afraid to celebrate her birthday. Her father used to buy her a
cake every year, and her mother would prepare delicious food for her.
After her father passed away, her birthday only served as a reminder of her incomplete family.
Gradually, she got used to it. Still, she didn’t expect Leslie to give her such a big surprise.
“It’s not a big deal,” Leslie assured.
He looked at the happy expression on Aurelia’s face and didn’t have the heart to burst her joy.
It was just a fake firework show, but she was this happy?
He found himself staring at her in a daze as tears formed in her sparkling eyes.
However, she hid it well, quickly smiling and narrowing her eyes to stop the tears from falling.
Leslie immediately turned away to give her some space.
After a moment, Aurelia regained her composure, and Leslie turned back to look at her.
She looked at him and said softly, “Thank you.
How could she not know that Leslie had turned away just now for her?

He glanced at her, then reached out to hold her hand and walked toward the exit.
“The banquet isn’t over yet. Where are we going?” she asked in surprise.
“It’s none of our concern anymore.”
She fell silent.
Aurelia could only follow him.
Behind them, the employees of One Technology received a text message from Leslie notifying them of
a salary increase.
“The boss has finally come to his senses!”
“See, I knew this would work. The boss couldn’t even sit still!”
AS SOOD
After leaving the banquet, Aurelia followed Leslie to the city center. as she got out of the car, she saw a
huge cake shop in front of her.
She looked at Leslie in confusion.
“I saw it on the way. Since it’s your birthday, let’s get one,” he explained.
Aurelia pointed to the roads on both sides, none of which led to their home.
“This is hardly ‘on the way.
“Do you want it or not?” Leslie asked, feeling slightly embarrassed that he had been exposed.
“I want it.”
She turned around and entered the store. She knew that Leslie didn’t like cakes much, so she chose at
smaller six–inch cake.
After the staff prepared it, he said, “Sir, you can write a message on the cake yourself. Would you like
to do it?”
Aurelia felt that Leslie would never do such a thing. Just when she thought he would refuse, Leslie took

He lowered his gaze and slowly wrote “Happy Birthday, the golden one” on the cake.

She was abandoned as a child, so her adoptive parents had given her a name that meant “the golden

However, most people didn’t think much about her name, and some even thought that it was just a
random name. #
She would explain the meaning of her name seriously whenever anyone asked, but the others would
just dismiss it.
Only she herself knew how grateful she was to have been taken in after being abandoned as a child.
She loved her name and held the meaning of it dear.
So, her heart raced when she saw what Leslie had written.
She sneakily took a photo of Leslie with the piping bag and saved it in an album.
When she looked up, Leslie was already standing in front of her. She lowered her head guiltily, hoping
that he hadn’t seen her taking the picture.
To her surprise, Leslie only handed her a tissue.
