Qin Fei trembled with rage when she heard Lily’s laugh that was full of mockery. "And do you think he will pick you over me?" she asked while taking another step back. "No... why would he choose me over you? It’s not like I am not the only woman around him. So you have to be very careful. After all... Xuan Hui has the tendency to be easily swayed," Lily was quick to answer. Lily laughed inwardly at how self-centered Qin Fei was at this moment. Had she ever considered that karma would get to her…

Meanwhile Lily was texting on her phone while occasionally glancing up to take in the view in front of her. When she was done sending the images that she had taken of the view earlier to Zhuo Jingren, she smiled, anticipating of his reply. Lily smiled while reading the text message before she replied. Then Lily froze at the realization of how mushy her drafted text message was. She immediately deleted the text message with a straight face and drafted a new one. How could she act like a…

Tang Lingyun and Qin Fei both widened their eyes at Lily’s words as they stared at Xuan Hui. They saw how the latter’s face turned pale which was a dead giveaway that Lily was speaking the truth. ’Xuan Hui met Qin Jinghua behind her back not once, but twice? Moreover, he knew something seemingly important about Qin Jinghua but didn’t tell her?’ Confusion, betrayal and disbelief immediately clouded Qin Fei’s gaze. When Xuan Hui saw how his wife was about to burst in rage, he immediately…

"Jinghua! How could you say things like that to your sister?" Tang Lingyun immediately chided. The woman who was with Lily looked at her with a shocked expression on her face. Sister? However, before the woman could say something, Lily’s scoff already reached her ears. "Ex-sister," Lily said as she turned to the woman. "I am an estranged family member." The woman immediately nodded and eyed a group of men who was approaching them. When she saw her husband among the group, she immediately sighed in…

"Fei Fei... calm yourself," Xuan Hui spoke at a volume that only Qin Fei could hear. However, his words didn’t yield the effect that he was hoping to see. Instead, his words only fueled Qin Fei’s anger. ’Why isn’t Xuan Hui cooperating? He used to pamper me and give me whatever I wanted. Is it because...’ Qin Fei’s lips seemed to tremble as she thought about the time that Xuan Hui did not answer her calls again. Was it really because of Qin Jinghua? At the same time, Tang Lingyun was…

"You really should listen to your husband, sister. I mean... you are carrying a Xuan right there inside you," Lily said as she gestured for Yang Mi to get her a glass of champagne. Tonight, Lily was not intending to have a tedious confrontation with these people. In fact, she was planning something simple this time. However, Qin Fei had something else in mind. Her rage and jealousy instantly spiked when she saw Lily smiling at Xuan Hui. Her eyes caught sight of Lily’s dress, and how it flaunted her…

The Bulgari cocktail party was held in the rooftop bar of a luxurious hotel. The rooftop had a big pool that had been heavily sprinkled with sparkling glitter, causing the pool shimmer under the starry night sky. A comfortable lounge was the first thing that greeted the guests when they first entered the rooftop bar. Soft music was playing in the background to create a relaxing ambience. Their latest collection of jewelry and accessories were put on display in glass cases that were strategically placed…

"Is this about the past?" Xuan Hui immediately shifted his body towards Lily, avoiding her face as he gritted his teeth in annoyance or maybe even fear. "You are a successful woman now Qin Jinghua. Why don’t you just move on and forget about what happened in the past? Surely, no one would look down on you now." "Lily..." she corrected as she dipped her finger into the glass and tasted it in her mouth. "Qin Jinghua is long dead." She then gave Xuan Hui a fake smile. "You should already know that by…

"Nothing... I was just... I wanted some fresh air," Tang Wei Dong stuttered before he roamed his eyes around the terrace one more time. "Let’s go back inside," he said before walking inside the building, not bothering to wait for Yuan Dehua. Yuan Dehua was looking at Tang Wei Dong’s back until it disappeared into the darkness of the dimly lit pathway. Then he looked at the cityscape, a small smile crept on his face. After a few seconds, Yuan Dehua let out a sigh, then he shoved his hands into his…

Tang Wei Dong narrowed his eyes at the dimly lit pathway that he saw Lily taking earlier. A while ago, he thought that this pathway would lead him to the girl’s bathroom but he was wrong. It seemed that this pathway leads to a more secluded section of the event hall. A small smile escaped his lips as he thought about Lily; the smooth jade-like skin on her legs looked very alluring. Though Yuan Dehua had warned him over and over again not to look for Qin Jinghua as it would only spell trouble, Tang Wei…
