On his peripheral vision, Ethan saw Yang Hui approach them holding two gla.s.ses of champagne .

He had an idea on what she was planning, and this caused his eyes to cast a dark shadow .

Ethan automatically veered his eyes towards Lillie, to only catch her staring at him as well .

"Don't worry . "

These two words extinguish his burning wrath like wind .

He replied with a silent nod before snaking his arm around her tiny waist, pulling her closer to his chest before kissing her forehead .

Lillie was surprised .

Though, it was not only her .

Gaping mouths and wide eyes came into view to the people in front of the two dog food distributer .

Women could not help but sigh at Ethan's loving gesture to his wife . While the men hoped for a woman to dote and embrace in their arms like Lillie .

Su Cang, Gabriel and Yi Fei's math profession, watch on the sidelines with tears streaming down his face . "Huhuhu . . . Miss Theodora . . . "

Yang Hui offered Lillie a forced smile and greeted her in a sweet tone . "Theodora, I would like to make a toast with you, as thanks for all your hard work for our reunion party . " She made sure that her voice is loud enough for the others to hear .

Everyone automatically grabbed their champagne gla.s.s and raised it to join .

Using everyone's partic.i.p.ation in the toast, Lillie had no choice but to accept the drink that was 'kindly' offered to her .

If she didn't, they would think she was being arrogant and haughty .

And that, is not the kind of person was their precious President .

Lillie accepted the gla.s.s, Yang Hui's triumphant smirk did not escaped her eyes .

"Cheers~" Yang Hui sang . A trace of mockery dripped from her tone .

Raising the gla.s.s for a toast, Lillie gracefully drank everything in one go .

'Fool . ' Yang Hui thought, secretly grinning .

Lillie placed the gla.s.s on the table . Her eyes scrutinized the corner of the room .

A waiter walked towards them to offer everyone another gla.s.s of champagne . Lillie took two and offered one to Yang Hui .

"I would also like to make a toast, for you and everyone . Thank you for coming . "

Yang Hui accepted the drink without further thought .

Everyone happily complied and made a toast .

"Cheers!"

Yang Hui sipped the sweet and cool beverage .

"Alright everyone! Grab yourselves a partner, it's time to dance!" The hired MC announced .

On cue, the lights dimmed and a slow, cla.s.sical music began to play .
