Chapter 374 - 367: Each Has Their Own Fate (Part 6)
At this point, if Bai Yiran didn’t take the drink offered by Luna, she would be considered pretentious. Bai Yiran stared into Qi Hui’s eyes and reached out to take the drink.
Luna nodded slightly towards Qi Hui, raised a drink, "Welcome everyone tonight for being here, and please forgive any shortcomings in my hospitality."
Luna carried herself with the demeanor of a hostess, although she had been living abroad with Leng Liewei for a long time. Not many people knew her domestically, but being Leng Liewei’s wife was enough to give her significant sway.
"Yiran, come~" Qi Hui raised her glass to Bai Yiran, indicating for her to drink it down.
With a smile, Bai Yiran nodded to everyone and tilted her head back to drink the glass of wine.
Luna and Qi Hui watched Bai Yiran drink with smiles and slowly finished their own drinks.
"Hmm~" Luna rubbed her forehead, her weariness apparent, and apologized to the ladies around her, "I’m sorry everyone, I just returned to the country and my body hasn’t quite adjusted. I’ll go and rest for a bit."
Since Luna said this, naturally no one dared to say anything against it, and they all urged her to take care of her health.
"Yiran, come with me~" Luna said delicately to Bai Yiran.
Bai Yiran raised an eyebrow. This woman had been with Qi Hui all night, and now she wanted her to accompany her to the resting room?
The two of them giving each other the evil eye, weren’t they afraid of making Luna’s already unwell condition worse?
Thinking this to herself, Bai Yiran found Luna’s hand already resting on her, making it hard for her to refuse. So she helped Luna to the resting room.
"Qi Hui, take care of the guests for me, don’t neglect them!"
As she was leaving, Luna didn’t forget to remind Qi Hui.
Qi Hui nodded, "Rest assured, Mrs. Leng."
For the convenience of guests, there were several resting rooms set up inside the venue. Bai Yiran helped Luna over to them, and the door of the first resting room was ajar. As Bai Yiran pushed the door slightly open, she saw a man’s foot, realizing someone was inside, she assisted Luna to the next room and laid her down on a recliner. Just as she was about to leave, Luna stopped her.
"Where are you going? Stay and keep me company!"
"Don’t I need to attend to the guests outside?" Just earlier she was emphasizing her duties as a daughter-in-law of the Leng Family to welcome guests properly.
"No need, just stay with me now. Or are you still upset about me taking your dress? I think you gained by a twist of fate, doesn’t what you’re wearing look even better?"
Luna’s tone was a bit sarcastic, and Bai Yiran pretended not to hear it, still standing up.
"Bai Yiran, do you even see me in your eyes? I am your husband’s stepmother! If I spread the word that you’re disrespecting me, what would that mean for you and Leng Yichen?"
Bai Yiran turned to look at Luna and said calmly, "I’m going to the bathroom."
After speaking, Bai Yiran went into the restroom of the resting room. Luna sat up from the recliner, staring at the bathroom door with a grim expression.
In the parking lot, Li Sha was sitting in the car reading a book. She was the one who brought Bai Yiran here, and Bai Yiran had asked her not to leave immediately, but to wait in the car so she could be found at any moment if needed.
Suddenly Li Sha’s cell phone rang. She looked down at the caller ID and saw it was Bai Yiran.
Without a second’s delay, Li Sha immediately answered the call, and Bai Yiran’s weak voice came from the phone, "Li Sha... come quickly..."
