What made Sang Ran even more heartbroken was that Gong Chen did not deny her words.
Her fiancé was anxiously concerned about another woman.
The air seemed to stagnate for a few seconds before Sang Ran threw herself into Gong Chen’s arms.
Gong Chen looked at her, a faint sense of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
He could even tell at a glance which medication she should take to control her condition.
Sang Ran lay in his arms, deeply inhaling his scent.
This man was clearly concerned about her!
Why couldn’t she feel the warmth in the depths of his heart?
Sang Ran held his hand, apologizing, "I’m sorry, I’m just too afraid of losing you. I’m really scared. Can you just pity me this once? Stop looking at her!"
She buried her face in his chest, hiding her tears.
Gong Chen clenched the medicine box, his face expressionless as he stared into the distance: "Mm."
Sang Ran was taken aback, but then hugged him tightly, her tears flowing even more fiercely.
Upstairs, Lin Zhiyi, who happened to pass by the window, saw the two embracing below.
She quickly averted her gaze and headed towards the banquet hall.
Upon entering, a staff member promptly offered a mask.
Lin Zhiyi received a very simple white mask, while Sang Li got a gothic one with dark circles.
While putting on her mask, she laughed and said, "Mr. Sang, don’t you have any privileges?"
Sang Li said indifferently, "Today’s guests are all young people from various families. What’s the point of having privileges? I think mine matches well with yours."
"Matching." Lin Zhiyi raised her hand to adjust it for him.
Sang Li caught her hand and whispered, "Zhiyi, after the singles party, I have something to tell you."
"Okay." Lin Zhiyi smiled.
"Let’s go."
Sang Li took her hand and entered the hall.
The hall was bustling, the music the latest pop hits, completely unlike the staid banquet, so everyone was having a great time.
Lin Zhiyi had just taken a glass of champagne from a waiter when the music suddenly stopped.
Instantly looking over, Sang Ran was on stage, arm in arm with Gong Chen.
Sang Ran said a lot, her eyes reddening in the end as she stared up at Gong Chen by her side.
"To marry the man I love most in this life, I feel incredibly fortunate, even dying without regrets."
The crowd immediately surrounded the couple with applause.
Lin Zhiyi couldn’t bring herself to clap and could only stand among the crowd, watching the brightest spotlight fall on Gong Chen and Sang Ran.
In that moment, Ye Feifei brought up two glasses of wine to the stage for Gong Chen and Sang Ran.
Everyone shouted "Cheers!"
In a daze, Lin Zhiyi felt an illusion that the man on stage was looking at her across all the people.
His eyes were like the dark night, deep and entwined.
Lin Zhiyi gripped her champagne glass like everyone else, slowly raising it to toast them.
Gong Chen felt as if something pricked the bottom of his eye and, without waiting for Sang Ran to finish, he tilted his head back and downed the drink.
Lin Zhiyi also sipped her wine, finding it hard to swallow due to its bitterness.
After the toast, the music started up again.
Lin Zhiyi and Sang Li went to meet a few of his friends.
They were well-known young masters and ladies from Hai City, charmingly eloquent yet witty in their conversation.
Lin Zhiyi was in the middle of speaking when someone abruptly squeezed in beside her.
Her hand shook, spilling champagne on the other person.
"Lin Zhiyi, what are you doing? Can’t stand me coming to find Mr. Sang, can you?"
The speaker was none other than Ye Feifei.
