The gentle deanor, so different from his usual stern, intimidating image, seed worlds apart.
Clearly, he adored his little wife Nianyang, while Ning Xia shalessly claid she had hooked up with Li Tingyan. In reality, Li Tingyan treated her like air!
The people around imdiately felt deceived and cast strange looks at Ning Xia.
Ning Xia’s face was burning with pain and embarrassnt. She looked at Lu Chi in front of her to cover her awkwardness, "Um, you’re the new Doctor Lu, right? Hello, I’m Ning Xia!"
Lu Chi was feeling sour watching Li Tingyan and Nianyang’s intimate interaction and had no thought of dealing with Ning Xia, responding with a cold "Mm" without saying more.
Ning Xia felt even more embarrassed, almost steaming with anger. How could everyone treat her like this? It was infuriating!
Nianyang was too caught up in her surprise at the man in front of her to care about Ning Xia’s awkward situation,
"Tingyan, have you finished working out? Huh, why’s Doctor Lu here too?"
"Doctor Lu joined for this workout session, and we ca back together just now," Li Tingyan answered, feeling uneasy hearing his wife ntion Doctor Lu.
He looked at the girl, "Nini, this is the first ti I’ve seen you in formal attire; you look great!"
Nianyang squinted her eyes, "Are you saying I don’t usually look good?"
This was indeed a perilous question, but Li answered coolly, "My wife always looks good, but tonight she looks especially stunning!"
Nianyang chuckled, "Li, you’re being cheeky again. If you like seeing in formal clothes so much, I’ll wear them for you every day when I go to college!"
Li Tingyan’s eyes softened, with many things he wished to say to his wife, but with so many people around, he whispered, "Sweetheart, perform well, I’ll watch you from the audience. After the gala, I need to toast a few leaders, rember to et in the woods next to the training base."
Nianyang whispered, "What are we doing in the woods, Li? Are you planning sothing bad?"
Li Tingyan ruffled her hair, "It’s your birthday today, I have a surprise for you."
Nianyang’s eyes lit up instantly, filled with anticipation, as she casually exchanged a few more words with Li Tingyan. At this mont, Lu Chi approached her to greet, but Li Tingyan sensed Lu Chi’s intentions and quickly said a brief goodbye to Nianyang, turning and dragging Lu Chi away.
Lu Chi unwillingly glanced back at Nianyang, but could only helplessly follow Li Tingyan away from the waiting area. His deanor caught Ning Xia’s eye, who then smirked slightly, confirming that the relationship between Doctor Lu and Nianyang wasn’t simple.
If Li Tingyan knew there was sothing between Nianyang and Lu Chi, would he still dotingly love Nianyang?
Ning Xia began to plot again in her mind, but considering the current situation, it wasn’t suitable to act just yet.
As ti ticked on, the gala was already halfway through, with various perforrs taking their turns on stage and returning. Soon, it was Ning Xia’s turn.
"Now let’s give the warst applause and welco Ning Xia to bring us a piano performance (Romantic Serenade)!"
As the host finished the announcent, everyone saw Ning Xia, wearing a dress exposing her arms and legs, trembling as she stepped onto the stage, their eyes widening.
The faces of the front-row supervisors and leaders turned slightly displeased.
They’d seen many song and dance performances and expected the rumored talented Ning Xia to surprise everyone. Who knew she’d co out dressed so indecently, practically disgracing the company!
