Chapter 169 - Thoroughly Embarrassed
It was finally 8:00 P.M., Wen Xinya had yet to arrive, and the reporters were all guessing if Wen Xinya was not going to appear, feeling that the rumors in the circle regarding Wen Xinya’s aggressive and overbearing character, intolerance of her stepmother and stepsister, and enmity with her father could really be true.
At this point, a commotion could be heard from outside, and then, two men dressed as chefs, complete with white toques, pushed a one-meter high cake into the event hall.
Such a beautiful tiered cake instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Ning Shuqian walked over hurriedly and said, “I didn’t order such a cake, did you guys make a mistake?”
One of the men replied, “Greetings, Madam Ning. Miss Wen has instructed us to send this over—she’d especially gotten a 4-star pâtissier from France to make this tiered cake for you, wishing you a happy birthday and happiness everyday.”
Before her arrival, the present came first—it seemed like Wen Xinya was probably going to attend her stepmother’s birthday cocktail party and that the rumors in the circle regarding Wen Xinya’s intolerance of her stepmother and stepsister and enmity with her father were probably untrue.
The reporters furiously snapped their cameras away at the cake.
Ning Shuqian’s unwilling, angry, loathful, and humiliated emotions gushed at her like a wave and drowned her. She clenched her fists tightly, forcing herself to calm down.
