It was not obvious when Cheng Xiao was sitting down. But when she was standing beside Cheng Ling, she paled in comparison with Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling was taller than Cheng Xiao.

Moreover, she had fair skin, her limbs were slender, and her collarbones were prominent.

The dress also made Cheng Ling’s cold temperament even stand out more.

Cheng Xiao’s figure belonged to the skinny type. Wearing this white lace princess dress, she looked a little childish.

Moreover, Cheng Xiao was wearing make-up. Her face had a slight difference in color from her neck. This difference was even more eye-catching under the bright light.

If Cheng Xiao was said to be a princess in this dress, then Cheng Ling who stood beside her was like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.

She definitely couldn’t stay in this place any longer. Cheng Ling dryly said “Happy Birthday” to Old Master Cheng before walking to a table in the corner.

Lu Qi also followed Cheng Ling over.

“Why did you speak up for me just now?”

Cheng Ling was referring to the incident where Lu Qi refuted the group of ladies.

“There’s no reason. They don’t even know what kind of person you are. They just maliciously speculate about you. I only told the truth, I didn’t speak for you.”

“Then do you think you know me?”

Cheng Ling did not know why she suddenly asked this question.

For so long, she had never asked others for their understanding of her. Naturally, she had never expected it.

However, it was not the first time that Lu Qi had spoken up for her. This inevitably caused her to feel some waves in her heart.

“I haven’t fully understood you yet, but I’m now on the way to understanding you.”

Lu Qi took a glass of juice and sat beside Cheng Ling. He handed the juice to her.

Cheng Ling didn’t take it.

“I want to drink wine tonight.”

Wine?

Lu Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise.

In his eyes, Cheng Ling had always been a very sober person. But now she initiated to drink wine.

Nevertheless, he still took a glass of wine with lower alcohol content from the tray of the waiter who passed by.

Cheng Ling took the glass, smelled it, and then took a sip.

It was not too bad, and there was a faint smell of fruit.

On the other side, Lu Xiu finally ended the topic and stood up.
