Back Then, I Adored You

This afternoon, Qin Zhi’ai was going to attend the so-called “ladies’ party” that had initially been organized by Liang Doukou.

After she took out her keys and started the car, she realized that it was Friday, and her car wasn’t allowed to driven under traffic restrictions that day.

There were other cars in the garage, but they were Gu Yusheng’s, and she had never expected to drive them. Besides, she would be late for the party if she asked Zhou Jing for a minivan to pick her now, so she ordered a luxury car online.

The location of the party was a spring club in the suburbs.

When Qin Zhi’ai arrived at the box that the Wechat group for the party had informed her to go to, a crowd of ladies was already there, creating a lively, busy scene.

In Beijing, the Liang Family was still a rich family, although much less rich than the Gu Family. Since Liang Doukou could initiate a party like this, she must be of a higher status among the noble ladies in Beijing. Therefore, as soon as Qin Zhi’ai walked in the room, a group of ladies came over and greeted her.

When Qin Zhi’ai had been about to sit down after greeting them back one by one, she noticed that Jiang Qianqian was also there.

Qin Zhi’ai felt her temples ache in instinct, but before she fully sat down, Jiang Qianqian had already come over with an abnormally bright smile, saying, “Sister Kou, you’re here! Well, this is my boyfriend, Lin Rong.”

While saying this, Jiang Qianqian turned her head back toward Lin Rong and spoke to him in an affectedly sweet voice, “Lin Rong, this is the cousin that I always mention, Liang Doukou, Mr. Gu’s wife.”

Lin Rong nodded to Qin Zhi’ai with a gentle smile, saying, “Hello!”

Qin Zhi’ai remained calm as usual, although she was also curious about Liang Doukou’s motivation this time. With no emotion showing on her face that could reveal her thoughts inside, she responded, “Hello.”

After they were done greeting, Jiang Qianqian said to Lin Rong coquettishly, “Rong, I want to eat some grapes.”

Without any hesitation, Lin Rong stood up and took some grapes from the self-serve buffet for her.

When Lin Rong sat next to her, Jiang Qianqian wrinkled her eyebrows, complaining deliberately, “I just got my nails manicured, I don’t want to peel the grapes…”

This time, before she finished speaking, Lin Rong reached out to take the grapes and started peeling them for her.

While she was eating the grapes, she kept asking Lin Rong to do things for her. One second, she wanted a cup of milk tea, the next, a cup of juice. But Lin Rong was very soft-tempered, and whatever her demands were, he always satisfied her in a mild manner.

Many ladies around saw the scene, and some of them who had a good relationship with her couldn’t help but compliment admiringly, “Qianqian, your boyfriend is so good to you.”

“If a man really likes a woman, he will definitely be good to her.” Jiang Qianqian drew out the last word deliberately, then glanced at Qin Zhi’ai, blinking as if she was asking for agreement, and asked in a seemingly innocent and delicate way, “Sister Kou, am I right?”
