Seeing that her actions had been exposed, Gu Qingyan glared at Rong Mo with a mixture of embarrassment and anger.

Not far away.

In a secluded corner behind the stage, Ji Feng was happily making a phone call when he suddenly caught sight of Rong Mo and Gu Qingyan arguing fiercely. He quickly exchanged a few words with the person on the other end of the line and hung up, cautiously observing the situation from his hiding place.

Rong Mo pursed his lips somewhat unhappily, looked around, and saw that most of the guests were heading towards the restaurant. He composed himself, thinking of stalling for a while, and then, despite his disgust, he began to reason with Gu Qingyan.

"Gu Qingyan, on this wonderful day, don't make everyone unhappy."

Zhi Qiu hasn't wanted to see you for a while now, so there's no point in you making a scene here. It will only make things awkward for everyone.

If I were you, I'd leave quickly, so that neither of us could lose face.

Gu Qingyan's mind wasn't on him at all; he was still looking around, hoping to see Shen Zhi Qiu.

At this moment, Wei Qiao quietly stepped forward and whispered in Rong Mo's ear, "President Rong, there's practically no one left in this hall. Shall we make our move now?"

Rong Mo glanced at it, nodded, and immediately acquiesced to Wei Qiao's words.

Seeing Wei Qiao approach him with a cold face, and bodyguards coming from both sides, Gu Qingyan's expression immediately turned ugly. He lowered his voice and scolded Wei Qiao, "What do you want to do? Do you want to kick me out now?"

"You're overthinking it. We're just planning to kick you out. Don't misunderstand." Wei Qiao curled the corner of her lips and looked at Gu Qingyan with disdain, then gestured to the bodyguards.

"Are you going to walk out on your own, or do you want us to carry you out? The decision is yours," Wei Qiao said coldly, stopping in his tracks.

Seeing the bodyguard beside him looking eager to try, Gu Qingyan pursed his lips and, thinking that a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle, walked towards the door with a displeased expression.

"Wei Qiao, follow him and make sure he doesn't step in again," Rong Mo instructed. "Otherwise, just break his legs outside. Don't give him a friendly look outside."

"Yes, sir." Wei Qiao followed with his bodyguards.

Gu Qingyan walked out the door with a cold face and headed towards the main road.

"Pah, how dare you come here."

Wei Qiao spat at his back and said irritably.

"I'm so sorry we're late!"

Suddenly, a gentle female voice sounded behind Wei Qiao.

Wei Qiao turned around and saw Yan Yan walking towards him with a limp, supported by a long-haired girl to prevent her from falling.

"Miss Yan Yan, what happened to you?" Wei Qiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and took her arm, asking with great concern, "Are you alright? What happened? How did you hurt yourself?"

As they spoke, Wei Qiao quickly squatted down and patiently examined Yan Yan's ankle with his hand.

They often get injured in their line of work, so Wei Qiao is very experienced and can usually tell the general situation just by examining someone.

"I slipped and twisted my ankle while going up the steps," Yan Yan said in a slightly embarrassed tone, tugging at her skirt. Then she pointed to the girl next to her and said, "Luckily, she was nearby and quickly ran over to help me up."

We rested there for a while before coming up.

"Thank you so much, I really owe you a lot just now." Wei Qiao stood up and thanked the girl.

Yan Yan is Shen Zhi Qiu's nutritionist. Because Aunt Zhao and the others all speak highly of Yan Yan, Wei Qiao and the others have also shown her more respect.

"It's alright, I just happened to be there. Anyone would have helped." The girl looked up and smiled at Wei Qiao.

Wei Qiao stared blankly at the girl's face, which seemed to be...

"Is Lu Jia inside?" The girl asked first, seeing Wei Qiao's reaction.

"Who are you?" Wei Qiao had a general idea in her mind.

"Hello, I'm Lu Jia's older sister, Lu Wei." The girl smiled, took out her phone, and saw that Lu Jia had already called her several times.

"So you're all on the same side." Wei Qiao nodded knowingly and gestured for them to go inside first.

“Miss Yan, let me help you.” Wei Qiao reached out and let Yan Yan hold his arm, and said in a low voice, “There is a doctor inside. I will take you to the rest room later and let the doctor take a look at you. It doesn’t seem like there are any bones broken, but it would be better to have a thorough examination.”

Lu Jia packed some food and drinks and walked towards the lounge with a smile.

Pushing open the door to the lounge, Lu Jia paused for a moment before calling out to Lu Wei, "Sister."

Then he greeted Yan Yan as well.

The doctor was patiently examining Yan Yan. He gently rotated her ankle and said, "There's nothing seriously wrong, but it's best not to exert yourself for the next few days. The less you walk, the faster you'll recover."

As he spoke, the bodyguard walked in carrying a bag of ice and a towel.

The doctor wrapped ice cubes in a towel and gently applied it to Yan Yan's ankle, patiently saying, "This will relieve the pain, otherwise the swelling will get worse later."

"Thank you, doctor. I can do it myself." After thanking the doctor, Yan Yan bent down and placed the towel on her ankle herself.

Rong Hong looked at Yan Yan with a worried expression.

While they were at it, Lu Jia had already laid out the food and drinks on the table, inviting everyone to come and eat something to tide them over.

Lu Jia added a small lemon cake and a freshly baked butter croissant to her plate, placed a small spoon and fork on it, picked up a hot latte, and walked over to Shen Zhi Qiu's side.

Lu Jia placed the plate on a small side table and gently pulled it over to Shen Zhi Qiu's left, saying softly, "You must be starving, right? Eat something first to warm your stomach, and we'll go out to eat later."

“Lu Jia, now that you’re here, I need to go out and greet the guests. Rong Mo might not be able to handle everything by himself. Also, there are some old friends of mine that I need to keep them company.”

You can stay here and take care of Zhi Qiu. You can come out after you've rested enough. It's okay.

"Your sister is here too, so you young people should chat more."

As Rong Hong spoke, he patted Lu Jia on the shoulder.

"Yan Yan, you should rest here and not move around. If you need anything, just tell Wei Qiao to do it."

Yan Yan nodded gratefully.

As Rong Hong passed by Yan Yan, Yan Yan bent down, and the red bow hair clip was pinned to the bun at the back of her head. Rong Hong's eyes glazed over for a moment.
