The guests were coming and going, clinking glasses and chatting. If you looked closely, it was easy to tell which side was the groom's relatives and which side was the bride's relatives.
Just as Cheng Qicai was engrossed in watching, a wheelchair stopped in front of her.
"Hey, Qicai, you look beautiful today!" Gu Liji complimented.
Cheng Qicai glanced at them, smiled politely, and complimented them, "You guys are handsome too."
Judging from Cheng Qicai's expression, Gu Liji knew that the matter from last time was not over yet.
To avoid being warned by Gu Rongqi again, he apologized, saying, "It was my fault last time. I was rude to Ren Baiping. Don't be angry, Qicai."
Cheng Qicai said calmly, "I'm not angry."
She simply realized that there was an inherent gap between their classes, and if it weren't for Yun Su Ni's connection, Gu Li Ji and the others might not have even looked down on her.
She simply overlooked this relationship, which led her to mistakenly believe that they were equals.
But no matter how you look at it, the gap between them has always existed.
Gu Rongqi said, "We can treat him to a meal next time..."
"No need," Cheng Qicai interrupted him, not wanting Ren Baiping to see them again.
The atmosphere among them froze.
Looking at Cheng Qicai's expressionless face, Gu Rongqi's lips moved slightly.
Before they could even utter a word, a slightly plump woman with her hair in a bun, wearing a dark green cheongsam, walked towards them.
"Mom?" Cheng Qicai called out as she saw Ms. Yun approaching.
Ms. Yun saw Gu Rongqi and Gu Liji and asked, "Seven colors, what is this?"
Cheng Qicai replied, "They are my bosses."
Gu Liji glanced at Gu Rongqi. His brother had just unexpectedly seen his mother-in-law?
Oh, no, given the current situation, it's still a question whether Cheng Qicai and her brother can get together.
"Auntie, hello, I'm Gu Rongqi." Gu Rongqi greeted Ms. Yun with a gentle smile, "We're friends with Qicai in private too."
Gu Liji quickly added, "Auntie, yes, we're friends with Qicai in private too."
Ms. Yun sized up the two men; they were both good-looking, but she felt they were similar to Lu Qi.
The person who spoke seemed to have a better temper, but this one in the wheelchair…
Hearing Gu Rongqi's voice, Ms. Yun came back to her senses.
Upon hearing Cheng Qicai say they were her bosses, a smile immediately spread across her face, and she said warmly, "Oh, it's Boss Qicai! Hello, hello! Has Qicai been bothering you at the company?"
"No, Qicai is doing a good job at the company, she's doing very well," Gu Liji said when he saw Ms. Yun praising her.
"That's good. I was worried she'd cause trouble at the company," Ms. Yun said with a smile. "There's cake and fruit here, please have a taste."
“I just tried this and it tastes pretty good,” Ms. Yun said, handing the special small cake plate to Gu Rongqi and Gu Liji. “I heard from Qicai before that your company’s boss is not only handsome, but also manages the company to be thriving. I didn’t expect him to be even more handsome than Qicai described, haha.”
"Thank you, Auntie!" they both said at the same time.
"Auntie, the cake you chose is really delicious." Gu Liji complimented while eating the cake. "Auntie, you look very young too. Standing next to Qicai, I thought you were the same age as her. I even thought she was her friend who came to visit."
Cheng Qicai was speechless. She had never complained about her work to Ms. Yun, let alone said such things.
Moreover, Gu Liji is talking nonsense.
"Really? Then another cake?" Ms. Yun picked up another cake and handed it to Gu Liji.
“No need, Auntie, this one is enough,” Gu Liji refused.
"Would you like another slice, boss?" Ms. Yun looked at Gu Rongqi behind her and handed the cake in her hand to him.
"Thank you, Auntie. In private, we're friends with Qicai now, so you can just call us by our names," Gu Rongqi said with a smile.
"Bei Xiu!" Mr. Cheng walked over and looked at the two men in suits in front of them. "This is..."
"This is the owner of Qicai! He's also a friend," Ms. Cheng introduced.
"Oh, hello! I'm Qicai's father." Mr. Cheng immediately put on a smile and extended his hand to shake theirs.
Hello, Uncle!
Hello, Uncle!
The two men shook hands with Mr. Cheng in return.
Mr. Cheng turned to Ms. Yun and said, "Beixiu, your brother is calling us from over there."
"Okay, then we'll have to leave." Mr. Cheng smiled apologetically at them. "Qicai, you have a good time with your... friends."
Cheng Qicai nodded, watching her parents' departing figures.
