As the party continued, Qi Yueyun smiled as she watched her son walk toward the lounge on the second floor with a faint blush on his cheek.
Everything was going exactly as she wanted. Miss Tang was already waiting there. After tonight, the Bai family and the Tang family's marriage would be decided. Qin Lianyi would have nothing to do with them anymore!
Qi Yueyun counted the time in her mind while drinking wine and exchanging pleasantries with the guests.
However, there was suddenly a loud noise on the second floor, followed by dead silence.
The guests looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.
Qi Yueyun had a forced smile on her face as she went to the second floor to check, only to find two of Tingxin's men standing in front of the lounge Miss Tang was in. The men she had arranged were nowhere to be seen.
"What are you..." Qi Yueyun said with a puzzled look on her face.
"Mr. Bai said to let Miss Tang and Madam's men have a good rest in this lounge so they won't get too tired!" they replied.
"What?" Qi Yueyun was startled. She immediately went forward to open the door, only to see Miss Tang collapsed on the couch while fully dressed. Her two men were lying on the floor, all tied up.
Her son was nowhere to be seen in the lounge. It was obvious he was not here.
"Where's Tingxin?" she asked sharply.
They said, "Mr. Bai said he's going home first. He also asked you to stop doing such nonsense in the future, Madam!"
Qi Yueyun gritted her teeth hard, knowing that her son had seen through it all!
"Miss Qin is still inside." The second half of the butler's words went unheard.
When Bai Tingxin walked to the living room, he suddenly stopped. The living room lights were on. Qin Lianyi was sitting on the couch in the living room, and an exquisite cake with digit candles stating his age was on the coffee table in front of her.
She was dressed in a white dress while her hair was tied loosely. The light fell on her face and body, making her look lovely. She smiled when she saw him come in.
"Tingxin, you're back! Wait while I light the candles," she said as she lit the candles with a lighter.
"No thanks..." Bai Tingxin said gruffly, wanting to go upstairs right away.
However, Qin Lianyi went forward, looked at Bai Tingxin's unusually red face, and asked, "What's come over you? Are you okay?" She raised her hand to touch his forehead as she spoke.
