"It's a little stuffy in here, Ziqi. Accompany me to the back garden for some air," said Hao Yimeng.
"Sure." A complicated expression was Xiao Ziqi’s face as he looked at his fiancee. "You stopped me from speaking because you wanted to do that?" He asked in a soft voice so only she could hear him.
"Yes. There's no point in warning someone who has a death wish." Smiling, Hao Yimeng said, "Besides, other than us, there are people who would offend Yi Jinli and do much more."
Xiao Ziqi looked at the smile on the corner of his fiancee's lips and suddenly felt an indescribable sense of loss. It was as if he had lost something that he could never get back.
Now, all he could do was firmly attach himself to the woman in front of him for the sake of their families!
Not far away, someone looked on coldly as the drama unfolded.
Gu Lichen watched with cold eyes as the three women continued to accuse each other. He threw his head back and finished the wine in his glass.
Moments ago, he had tried to step forward and stop the three women when he saw Ling Yiran being laughed at in public. However, before he could step forward, Yi Jinli had already stepped forward to help Ling Yiran.
Only then did Gu Lichen realize that he seemed to be acting unnecessarily once more. Ling Yiran had Yi Jinli to protect her, so he did not have to worry about her at all.
Naturally, Yi Jinli would deal with those who laughed at Ling Yiran.
After all, he had already decided to not fight over her with Yi Jinli. Gu Lichen lowered his eyes, and the corner of his mouth displayed a hint of self-mockery.
Ling Luoyin who was standing beside him could not help but call out, "Lichen..." It seemed as if he was beginning to stray further and further away from her.
