"I see that you really came. I was hoping you wouldn't, but I guess I cannot change your mind." Zheng Yue approached her niece and joined her at the balcony where they decided to have a private talk.
The older woman arrived an hour earlier than Li Chuntao and Shen Zichen and was busy socializing with other guests.
Behind them, the ballroom was filled with lively music, and guests were gathered on the dance floor. Li Chuntao couldn't see Shen Zichen from her spot and assumed he went somewhere peaceful to clear his mind. He probably didn't want to see her being with Mu Jianyu when the man comes to see her.
"It can't be helped, Auntie. This is my purpose now. If I let them continue to live in peace knowing that she had suffered, I wouldn't be able to face her in the afterlife." Li Chuntao said, downing the champagne in her glass before giving it back to a passing waiter.
