Mu Qingli stood up with a smile brimming on her face, raised her glass, and said, "Uncle, please take a seat. As the younger one here, it is my duty to toast to you. However, I am allergic to alcohol, so I'll drink tea in place of wine."
After speaking, she drained the tea in her cup in one gulp.
Mu Qingli was not angry about the incident nor was she arrogant or complacent for having achieved the global number one ranking; she maintained a generous and open attitude throughout.
Yan Mushen looked at Mu Qingli, his eyes filled with appreciation. He set down his glass, turned to Lin Zhizhi, and said, "Xiaolin, you just spoke out of turn and offended Miss Mu. You should apologize to her right away."
If it weren't for Lin Zhizhi's deliberate misleading, he wouldn't have misunderstood Mu Qingli.
Lin Zhizhi used to be sensible; how had she become so impulsive now?
For a moment, Yan Mushen felt a pang of dissatisfaction with Lin Zhizhi.
Lin Zhizhi bit her lip in secret.
