with a smile."Mom and Uncle Yi have something to do tonight and won't be coming home. How about Aunt [Yi's wife's name] goes back to stay with you guys" Lin Zhihao thought maybe he could still try to...Then, she directly took the wine cup from Tinglan's hand, stepped forward to toast with Gu Ruandong, using the sake as a cover, blatantly looking at him.

Gu Ruandong raised an eyebrow, nonchalantly bumped his glass against hers, then tilted his head slightly and drank it all in one go. He finished with a simple, “You do as you please.”

His eyes never left her, a smirk playing on his lips.

Lu Yaoyao saw the warning hidden in his casual "you do as you please". She backed down, holding her wine glass and taking a light sip, not daring to drink it.

She didn't even have time to put on her coat before she ran towards the parking lot. She didn't need him to tell her which car, because his driver was standing outside a black car waiting for her.

She ran to the car, a little out of breath. Actually, it was quite cold outside, freezing."Happy New Year, Happy New Year."Li Yu also followed the greetings of all the ladies, wishing them well and showing great propriety.Cheng Zhimin praised“Xiao Yu is prettier than ever.” To be honest,...
