"Welcome to The Abyss, may I help you?" The waiter asked.
"We're invited to a birthday party under Jason's name," Zheng Roufeng said.
"Oh it's master's guests. Please follow me. The party is on the rooftop and most guests have arrived. The party most probably has already started."
"So are we late?" Adam couldn't help but glanced at Zheng Roufeng's expressionless face.
"No you don't," the waiter said with a smile.
Zheng Roufeng immediately explained, "Jason's birthday is actually tomorrow but me and him already have our own plan tomorrow thus he decided to host the party today. The birthday song will be sang at the end sharp at midnight so we're not late. They most probably eating while playing games right now."
"Oh. How old is he by the way," Adam was curious.
"26."
"He's the same age as my younger brother. You old cow eating tender grass," Adam acted like he was shocked.
"I'm not that old and plus we're childhood friends so stop talking nonsense. And your brother is already an adult. You're acting like your younger brother never been in a relationship himself."
When they arrived, the sounds of music was so clear at every corner of the area and people seemed to be having fun. There was a slightly elevated stage where a few people dance and sing.
Looking around, Zheng Roufeng didn't see Jason or any of his group members. But he didn't need to wait too long before Jason appeared on the stage.
He was wearing a loose maroon silk shirt with a black pants. On his head is a head band with a tiny birthday cap on top of it. He looks cute and handsome at the same time.
Jason was currently holding a mic and the screen behind him flickered a few times before a line of words appeared.
'Truth or Dare.'
"Now, I will pick up one name from this box and that person can choose either truth or dare. If he choose truth, Gina Lim from our girl group Athena will pick a question to ask and if someone notice you lie, there will be a punishment. If he choose dare, Revan will tell him what is the thing he needed to do. Are you guys ready?"
"Ready!!!!"
Zheng Roufeng and his friends immediately went to sit down at a bar table not far from the stage.
"Young people sure know how to play," He Lang seemed intrigued.
"Hey, is that your husband?" Adam asked while pointing towards the stage.
Zheng Roufeng didn't notice anything and just nodded, "Yup that's him."
"Why didn't you say so?"
Zheng Roufeng was confused, "Yep, didn't I tell you?"
"I mean why didn't you show us his picture before? Me and Qi Cheng already met him and who would have though he is your husband ah."
Adam immediately explained how they met and Zheng Roufeng wasn't shocked since he already knew about the audition but he never thought Adam and Qi Cheng would be there.
"Well, is there anything wrong with him?" Zheng Roufeng still couldn't understand why Adam looked so shock.
"No, if I knew he is your husband, I will definitely help him more and doesn't even need to bother him to audition," Adam said.
"Don't worry. Jason doesn't mind much and for him work is work so you do your work without bias and he did his," Zheng Roufeng reassured him.
While they were talking suddenly, someone poked Zheng Roufeng's shoulder and it was Chris who suddenly appear out of nowhere.
"Mr Zheng, I'm Chris."
Qi Cheng who thought Chris might come for impure intentions couldn't help but say, "Sorry we don't know you so can you please go somewhere else."
"Relax Cheng, this is Jason's group member," Zheng Roufeng explained.
Chris didn't even glance towards Qi Cheng and just said, "Well I'm just telling you that the spotlight will be pointing at you later."
After saying that, he walked away.
"Are all celebrities a bit weird nowadays?" He Lang couldn't help but say and Zheng Roufeng did reply.
Instead he focused his attention towards the stage.
"Ok next lucky person is......" Jason slowly rummaged inside the box before he took out another piece of paper.
"It's.....hey wait why did my name written here?" Jason look confused.
Revan immediately said, "Who said birthday boy can be excluded from the game? So now, truth or dare?"
Jason looked at Revan seemingly noticing something was odd but he didn't say it outrightly and decided to go with the flow, "I choose dare."
"Arghhhhh, Jason please dance half naked," someone from among the crowd shouted.
"Hey hey, we're family friendly here so no naked or half naked dance ok. Plus I'm the one deciding the dare so now Jason Ray Jung, your dare is, sing the latest song you wrote and compose while you're drunk. Please sing the song emotionally."
The moment Revan said the dare, a few people started to laugh and some even sang a song about hot sauce.
Seeing the audiences' reaction Revan reminded, "The song is not Hot Sauce sang by group Athena who Jason has composed before. There's another song and Boss Kim vehemently rejected that song. So do you guys want to hear it?"
"Yes!!!!"
Jason knew he couldn't avoid it and seeing Revan's gleaming mischievous eyes, he seemed to be enjoying it and Jason didn't feel mad at all.
On the contract, he immediately find one figure sitting not far from the stage. That figure also staring at him with a deep gaze.
"Ok the dare is accepted but I have a request," Jason said.
"Fine. Anything for our birthday boy tonight. State your request."
Holding the mic, Jason said, "I want my husband to accompany me while I sing the song."
Revan couldn't help but laughed out a loud before he said while still laughing, "Your request is accepted. Proceed comrade."
Jason immediately went down the stage and strode confidently towards the person who also seemed to be waiting for him.
"My dear, will you accompany me to sing. I feel nervous so I need your help," Jason said shamelessly.
Someone who had been a singer for five years was shy to sing in front of less than a hundred people. Even a toddler wouldn't believe it.
However, Zheng Roufeng suddenly felt nervous, "Baby, I don't know how to sing. And I don't even know the song."
"Don't worry. You don't need to sing. Just hold my hand. Come on let's go," Jason immediately grabbed Zheng Roufeng's hand and they went back to the stage.
"Ok comrade Jason, you can start," after Revan said that, the lighting became dimmer and only one bright spotlight remained bright and continue to focus on two person on the stage.
The audience was also silent and the soft instrumental sounds sounded in the background as if knocking into people's heart light a feather.
Jason opened his mouth and a serene melodious voice started to tune into the song and blended with the music gently.
I waited for this day
For this night to come
Just spending the night as two
I waited
No need to turn on the lights
Don't need to say anything
Just lean on me
and close your eyes
Narrowly erotic to make you come into my arms
With this heart, this smile, these eyes, this touch
I'll seduce you tonight
Say it
Show it
Show me everything you've got
Before the night ends
Act like there's no tomorrow
Softly and moistly
I'll go into your arms while being wet
I'm thirsty for your love
Let your love rain fall
As the nasal voice hummed and utter each of the lyrics softly as if whispering, a lingering and romantic feelings of a pair of deeply in love lovers slowly depicted in everyone's mind.
"Hey is this really a song he wrote when he was drunk. It's too good ah."
"Damn, senior Jason sings so well."
"Urghhh, my ears are pregnant please help."
"Hey calm down. I'm more fascinated looking at Jason's husband's face. Look."
Zheng Roufeng was holding Jason's hand tightly and they were currently facing each other. Although there were currently dozens of people watching them, he felt as if it was only the two of them there.
He stared at the other person obsessively and that person also stared at him while singing those sweet words with his voice that sounds like heaven. Zheng Roufeng felt his heart full and his mind was blank.
Jason's eyes were focused on the man in front of him conveying the deep love they share while his lips was still smiling while uttering the sweet love words directly showcasing his feelings towards the man. He wanted the man to know and never doubt his feelings.
Zheng Roufeng could feel his heart beating faster and faster thus when the tune gradually came to an end, he immediately grabbed Jason's head and kissed him.
"Ahhhhh!!!! This is so sweet."
"Hey please have some sympathy towards single people."
Some even whistling and clapping their hands to tease the couple.
"No wonder Boss Kim reject this song. The lyrics need to be more polished."
"Nah, I eat this kind of song. Boss Kim, please let Jason release the song!" Someone said among the crowd.
Kim Raebin only smiled and didn't say anything.
On the other side, three people were still stunned.
"Hey is that really our friend Roufeng?" Adam even rubbed his eyes a few times just in case he saw wrong.
"Yeah, it's Roufeng," He Lang replied.
None of them thought the always decisive, goal oriented and stoic Zheng Roufeng could look so infatuated like that. Who would have thought, someone who always have cold eyes and emotionless expression could blush and even looked so touched like that.
Zheng Roufeng was still on the stage, standing beside Jason who continue to pick another name but after three pick, all the name was still his name.
"Really? Don't tell the rest of the papers inside the box all have my name?" Jason already realized what had happened and stared at the culprit.
"Hehe, so birthday boy. Your name have been picked three times and please choose truth or dare," Revan said nonchalantly.
"Truth for all three. Ask me three questions."
Revan immediately asked, "When is the first time you met your husband?"
"Argh!!! Revan turned into a noisy aunty but I also want to know ah."
"Revan sure know what question to ask."
Jason ignored what everyone was saying and just answered calmly, "We're childhood friends. He first met me when I was one years old and he is seven at the time."
Revan glanced at Zheng Roufeng and asked, "Is it true Mr Zheng?"
Zheng Roufeng nodded, "Yes."
"Of course you will say yes ah."
The games continue for a while until Jason decided to throw the box away and proceed with the lucky draw event.
The lucky draw was sponsored by Zheng Roufeng and those who were not so lucky were given new wireless charging pod from Zheng Roufeng's company so everyone was satisfied.
For those that lucky, they won a new automatic AI vacuum cleaner, the latest gaming laptop and other expensive tech products.
"Last event for tonight. Birthday song for our birthday boy!"
The moment the birthday song ended, fireworks were blown on the sky and Jason blew the candle on the big cake before letting everyone to take the cake if they want.
Zheng Roufeng already left Jason's side and went back to his friends.
"Damn, does being married really change people? I never thought you can look that infatuated? Why didn't you tell us you guys are childhood sweetheart. No wonder you reject everyone that confess to you before," Adam couldn't help but say.
Zheng Roufeng just nodded his head and didn't say anything much.
A few people already started to leave and not long after that Jason came towards Zheng Roufeng and his friends.
"Baby, these are my friends that I told you before," Zheng Roufeng said while holding Jason's hand.
"We meet again Mr Gerald and Mr Qi."
"Ai, no need to be too formal. Just call me Adam after this. You're Roufeng's husband so we will regard you as our younger brother."
"Jason, are perhaps mixed race? Roufeng sure have good eyes. My name is He Lang by the way and here is my gift for you."
"Hey take this. I even asked my dad for this wine since you can't buy it in this country," Adam said.
"Here is my gift," Qi Cheng also chimed in.
"Thank you so much. I really hope you enjoy the party. You guys can also come here often since I already informed the manager."
"Oh great. We will absolutely support your business," Adam said enthusiastically.
They chatted for awhile before leaving.
"Jason, can you please not release that song?" Zheng Roufeng suddenly said before they went to sleep.
They decided to sleep early since Zheng Roufeng already prepared a date tomorrow for the two of them.
"I never plan to release that song since it was intended just for you."
"Really?" Zheng Roufeng felt his heart beating faster again.
"Yes. If you have a question, request or problem, just tell me. We're married so we ought to help each other and complete each other," Jason said while staring deep into Zheng Roufeng's eyes.
He knew Zheng Roufeng seemed to be investigating something about the Gu family and since he knew Zheng Roufeng wouldn't have any feelings towards Bai Wehan, he couldn't think of any reason why Zheng Roufeng was investigating Bai Wehan's male lead.
Zheng Roufeng knew Jason was sharp in noticing something no matter how good he is at concealing it but he felt like it wasn't the time yet, "I will tell you everything later."
