In contrast to how worked up Qi Lei was, Gu Lingsha was very calm. She nodded slightly and gave Qi Lei an elegant smile which felt distant. Even her voice had a faint tint of gentleness in it, "Long time no see, Second Master Qi."
Wang Qin's expression was getting worse by the second and Qi Lei was stunned as well. He then held both her arms and looked at her intently. Upon feeling that his sense of loss had disappeared, his grip got stronger. "That's great. It's great that you're back, Shasha!"
"Second Master Qi, can you please let me go first?" Gu Lingsha's smile was strained as she struggled awkwardly.
Qi Qiming came closer at this moment. "How nice of you to come all the way here from City B to celebrate your Aunt Wang's birthday."
Qi Qiming glanced at Wang Qin before letting out a chuckle. His darkened expression from before was nowhere to be seen. On the other hand, Wang Qin's expression was cold like ice.
"I just landed, so I'm glad that I could make it in time. I've prepared a gift for Aunt Wang's birthday. I hope you'll like it. Aunt Wang, you didn't change much even after several years. You're just like how I remembered."
Gu Lingsha's smile was sweet and soft like the bloom of a lily, mesmerizing many people, including Qi Lei!
He was still overwhelmed by the joy of seeing her again, and he did not notice Wang Qin's clenched fists.
Wang Qin knew very well that there was no way Gu Lingsha would be this friendly to her when she had openly expressed her dissatisfaction towards her!
She would never believe it!
Gu Lingsha took a gift box from her assistant beside her and politely handed it to Wang Qin with a sweet smile. "Happy birthday, Aunt Wang! I wish for your good health and happiness!"
Wang Qin stared at Gu Lingsha for some time before forcing a fake smile on her face. "How nice of you, Ms. Gu. I'm touched that you came here all the way from City B. I should've sent you an invitation and invite your parents over as well. I really do miss them after so many years."
Wang Qin deliberately made it obvious that Gu Lingsha was uninvited!
"Mother missed Aunt Wang too. She told me to send you her regards." Gu Lingsha smiled as if she did not notice Wang Qin's insult. Qi Lei's expression darkened as he glanced at Wang Qin, pretending not to notice.
"Alright, Shasha, let me get you a seat somewhere. They still have to attend to other guests. Everyone, please continue!"
Qi Lei left Qi Qiming and Wang Qin aside as he took Gu Lingsha away despite the fact that she was clearly struggling.
Gu Lingsha frowned as Qi Lei was clamping on her hand. She complained quietly, "Lei! Let go of me!"
"No way! Shasha, all these years..."
"Please consider the place we're at right now! Don't make a fool of yourself. You're still as reckless as ever, Lei!" Gu Lingsha sighed helplessly as she patted his shoulder.
Qi Lei then stopped his footsteps and looked into her eyes. He finally let go of her when he saw her frown. "Have a seat."
He closed his eyes and calmed down a little. He then stared at Gu Lingsha's beautiful face deeply as if he wanted to imprint her face in the depth of his eyes forever.
Gu Lingsha nodded and sat down obediently while Qi Lei grabbed a glass of wine and handed it to her.
What just happened was fully observed by Xi Xinyi and Yue Hai who were just sitting on the side.
