At My Birthday Banquet, My Wife Called Out Her Assistant's Name

The candles at the birthday party were blown out, and everyone started urging Lin Wan and me to kiss. She smiled and leaned toward me, her warm breath brushing my ear. Then, against my ear, in a voice only I could hear, she murmured another man's name as if in a dream.

"Xiao Zhou..."

My assistant, Zhou Ming.

1 The cheers and music around us abruptly faded into a vacuum. I froze, my blood seeming to turn to ice. Lin Wan didn't seem to realize what she'd said. She looked up at me, her eyes shining with tipsy affection and admiration.

"Chen Yu, happy birthday."
