Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Show off Love, Die Fast (32)
Li Qian shuddered involuntarily, her eyes widening slightly.
When had Ling Chuxia arrived? How long had she been standing behind her? Had she heard everything she just said?
But soon, she sneered coldly in her heart. Why should she worry about Ling Chuxia hearing her words? Even if she had heard, so what? Everything she had said was the truth.
Li Qian suddenly smiled again, her eyes beautifully fixed on Ling Chuxia, and her voice filled with enthusiasm, "Xiaoxia, you finally made it. We were just talking about you here. Speak of the devil and he shall appear."
"There was a bit of a traffic jam on the way. I’m late, sorry everyone." Ling Chuxia explained indifferently, snapping everyone back to reality as they greeted her.
With a tone neither cold nor warm, and as if joking, Li Qian said, "Xiaoxia, I thought you weren’t going to show up, ready to flee and stand us up~"
"How could I? If I hadn’t come, I would have missed your wonderful speech just now. That would have really been a shame." Ling Chuxia’s face bore a faint smile, her words gentle but every sentence showing no sign of weakness.
Stung by the retort, Li Qian scoffed inwardly and smiled, "Indeed it was wonderful. After all, it was all true. Not like those exaggerated lies that sound ridiculously pompous when spoken."
Naturally, Li Qian wouldn’t pass up the chance to take a jab at Ling Chuxia, each word laced with barbs.
At Li Qian’s words, Ling Chuxia paused for a moment, her eyes falling, avoiding Li Qian’s gaze. Li Qian’s eyebrows shot up, thinking she had hit a sore spot, and she couldn’t help but smile, ready to continue her assault. But before she could speak, Ling Chuxia suddenly reached out her hand towards her.
Li Qian was taken aback, and before she knew it, her hand with the diamond ring was pulled up by Ling Chuxia. Ling Chuxia’s gaze fixed on the diamond ring, her tone somewhat admiring, "This ring is really beautiful. Your husband gave it to you, right?"
With a haughty sniff, Li Qian raised her head proudly, her eyes full of triumph as she looked at Ling Chuxia, "Of course. My husband brought it back from Paris last week just for me."
That was exactly the sentence Ling Chuxia had been waiting for. As soon as Li Qian finished speaking, Ling Chuxia couldn’t help but laugh lightly.
Li Qian frowned, staring coldly at Ling Chuxia, "What’s so funny?"
Ling Chuxia withdrew her hand, slightly lifting her head and smiling at Li Qian, her voice gentle and soothing, "You must have been reading the newspapers and magazines frequently, right? Last week, your husband was clearly in Hawaii, walking on the beach with a hot girl. How could he spare the time to go to Paris for... an ordinary little gift for you?"
Li Qian hadn’t expected her lie to be exposed so quickly, her eyes widening in shock, "You... "
"Oh, you want to say that all this is just the media chasing shadows, just fake news, right? But where there’s smoke, there’s fire. How could the media get such pictures if nothing was happening?"
"You... "
"I know, I know. Just because there’s an appearance of love doesn’t mean it’s true love. I get what you mean. We’re all old classmates here; I really shouldn’t have said that to you. I apologize right now. I guess I’m just too straightforward, not knowing how to be two-faced~"
