Standing up he slapped Bai Lu as he dragged her to the ground, raising his head Liu Yifei look at Lin Yun with fear and trepidation bowing and apologising

"Ms. please i know i was wrong, it was all because of her, please forgive me this once"

Lin Yun didn't even glance at him but remarked one sentence before dragging Wang Xing Yue and Lin Xi along and leaving Wu Qianqian with Li Qiang

"I know right, are they really couple"

"Who knows but they look too good together"

Meanwhile, at the Li's private kitchen Li Qiang and Wu Qianqian walked out of the restaurant with their heads down not knowing how to break the tension. ultimately Li Qiang broke the silence asking

"Li Qiang: How have you been"

"Wu QIanqian: No bad, what about you"
