Rong Shang knew they were upset, so she smiled slightly and let them vent their frustrations.
Then one of them said, "Qiqi, today is Xiao Ce's birthday! How could you leave him alone and come to celebrate with us?"
As soon as she spoke, the others immediately gave her meaningful glances.
Actually, saying "abandon" is more ironic.
In Lancheng, everyone knows that Xiao Ce doesn't like Mo Qiqi at all. Only this girl is silly, always following others around.
The person who was speaking chuckled awkwardly, afraid that he might have offended her.
As soon as she closed her mouth, the beautiful woman in front of her spoke up, "Birthdays come every year, why do you have to make a special trip to celebrate with him?"
"Well."
Before that...
"Do you think it's more important for me to celebrate his birthday with him than to go out singing with you guys?"
The red wine was reflected in her pupils. At this moment, Rong Shang gently swirled the wine glass, a faint smile on her lips.
Calm and stunning.
At that moment, the girls in the private room all felt that today was the most beautiful day they had seen Mo Qiqi since they met her.
"Of course not."
In high spirits, they smiled broadly as they answered her questions.
But afterwards, they all tacitly kept quiet.
It's strange, really strange.
Mo Qiqi actually thinks Xiao Ce is unimportant?
It seems something must have happened between them.
*
An hour and a half later, it was almost ten o'clock.
Rong Shang was getting a little bored in the private room, so she told the others that she was going to leave.
Warm lights shone down in the corridor.
A dozen or so people just walked out of the private room.
Some of them were complaining, "It's not even ten o'clock yet, why is everyone going back?"
"Exactly, we didn't get to enjoy this much."
Ye Weiya walked ahead, and when she heard the constant complaints behind her, she turned around a little embarrassed and said, "A-Ce, why don't you guys continue having fun? I'll just take a taxi back by myself."
The reason it started was that Ye Weiya realized it was getting late and was getting ready to go home.
As a result, Xiao Ce was worried about her and offered to take her home.
To everyone's surprise, as soon as he opened his mouth, half of the people chimed in, saying, "Let's call it a day and go home."
That's why we have the current situation.
But Xiao Ce didn't care. "No, we can drink anytime."
"But it's getting late, and I'm worried about you going back alone."
As he spoke, he suddenly lowered his head and met Ye Weiya's gaze unexpectedly. She was startled for a moment, then looked away somewhat embarrassed.
But her gaze, though seemingly unintentionally, drifted toward the tall, imposing man behind her.
Mo Zhan.
Unfortunately, the man maintained an unapproachable demeanor throughout.
Ye Weiya seemed a little downcast. She lowered her eyes, but then she heard the people around her say, "Hey, look, isn't that Mo Qiqi?"
Just as this person was speaking, Rong Shang heard the voice and looked up.
"It really is."
"She actually came all the way here, amazing."
The men standing behind Xiao Ce chattered on and on, their tone not very friendly.
When Xiao Ce saw her, his sharp gaze fell directly on her and scrutinized her for a while.
Finally, it landed on her wrist. Tonight, the woman was wearing a sleeveless dress, revealing her fair and slender arms.
Of course, let alone a deep cut made with a knife, Xiao Ce didn't even see a tiny scratch.
So, she lied to him again?
His narrow eyes narrowed dangerously in an instant.
