STEP AWAY! THE ANTAGONIST WANTS TO ESCAPE
29.

 Tonight, the day that snows for the first time every year is Grandpa Lu's birthday. As in previous years, a party was organized to celebrate it. This year is no different.

Ming Yue came along with Lu Ming. Their presence stole a lot of attention, the article is in the previous year they did not come together. As soon as entering the hall all eyes were on them. The expressions of the people attending the event were all sorts. Most of them were shocked and unexpected.

Whispers began to sound and reached Ming Yue's ears.

“So the rumor was true.”

“They look suitable.”

“Wait until miss Ming act.”

“I'm sure Miss Ming will be a laughingstock again this year.”

“Haha... I look forward to it.”.

The circular Ming Yue hand on Lu Ming's arm loosened, he wanted to take it off.

“Ming Yue grandpa is over there.” Lu Ming said. He fixed the location of Ming Yue's hand and flanked it so as not to escape.

Ming Yue looked at Lu's grandfather and Lu Ming's mother, Fu Yao, also looking towards them. Fu Yao sent him a smile and Ming Yue replied to him. Likewise with Grandpa Lu, he looked so happy that he waved at them.

Lu Ming guided Ming Yue across the room.

“Grandpa happy birthday.” Ming Yue said, she hugged Grandpa Lu.

“Thank you Yueyue, grandfather felt complete after you came.” Grandpa Lu returned his embrace.

As usual Grandfather Lu would forget about the surroundings if he was already together with Ming Yue, making others who wanted to greet him have to wait. Including Lu Ming.

“Son, your sore eyes have healed apparently.” Fu Yao elbowed her son, she raised her eyebrows teasingly. See, his son didn't even give him a greeting. But Fu Yao was happy. Fu Yao had already advised Lu Ming to treat Ming Yue well, but the son had never listened to her.

Fu Yao glanced at Ming Yue who was still coolly talking to her father-in-law. He felt relieved, then said to Lu Ming. “Mama see now you guys swap positions.”

Lu Ming sighed heavily before turning his head and looking at his mother. “Mama is by my side, isn't it?”

Fu Yao clucked. “Son, mom can answer out loud that mom will always be by your side if it's about anything else. But for this matter.” He sighed, patted Lu Ming on the shoulder and continued. “Mama wants to see you exposed to karma.” Fu Yao ended it with a sneer.

At the end of the room, a pair of eyes watched over Ming Yue with great envy.

In addition to business associates and colleagues, there were quite a few people from the company who came to the party. For example, such as people from the secretariat department who are tasked with ensuring the event takes place smoothly.

Gu Anran who came along with the entourage had to grit his teeth. She had not taken her eyes off Ming Yue since the Woman had entered by embracing Lu Ming. His anger grew when he saw her smiling happily in the middle of the Lu family and getting envious gazes from the girls who came. Exactly that was his, in the story he saw, Gu Anran was the one who became Lu Ming's partner at this party.

He held his handbag tightly. He looked at Ming Yue full of diligence then took out two glasses of champagne from the servant and walked over to where Ming Yue who was now not with Lu Ming.

“Nona Ming.” He greeted.

Ming Yue turned. His forehead immediately wrinkled with a hunch When he saw Gu Anran's face.One more time he had to say, the enemy was destined to meet often.

“Ming Mona I realized the deeds I did yesterday were inappropriate. I want to apologize to you.” She said. His expression was humble and his tone was very polite.

Ming Yue thought to herself, if she really wanted to apologize why she did it while she was in a crowded place. Isn't that the same as forcing her to accept her apology. If he rejects it, those who have mouths like piranhas who are ready to tear the flesh condemn him for being irrational. In their eyes, the person apologizing first was a noble hearted person, without needing them to know what mistake made that person apologize.

Ming Yue smiled. “I'm sorry.” He said and intended to leave.

“I will feel relieved and sure if miss Ming has forgiven me.” Gu Anran blocked Ming Yue, he thrust the champagne glass he brought before Ming Yue.

Ming Yue wanted to refuse, but the eyes of the people were watching her. Some have even started to shake it. Ming Yue was forced to accept it.

When the glass had already touched his hand and Gu Anran had already removed his grip, that was when Ming Yue withdrew his hand. The glass fell and broke when it hit the floor. The liquid inside spilled onto the tip of Gu Anran's dress.

“Gasp!” people gasp.

“Sorry my hand is slippery.” Ming Yue pretended to be startled, covered her mouth with her hands and said with regret.

You think you're the only one who can act! Ming Yue rolled her eyes inwardly.

That drink, Ming Yue was sure that Gu Anran had already polluted him with something. Seeing the true nature that Gu Anran possessed, he became doubtful that the events that occurred in the novel were purely karmic. There must have been some interference from Gu Anran.

“Secretary Gu, don't worry, Lu Ming prepared a spare dress for me. You can use it.” Mign Yue called the maid and instructed her to take Gu Anran away to the dressing room.

Along the way to the dressing room Gu Anran cursed Ming Yue. The dress was expensive and the price was equivalent to a one-month apartment rent, she bought the dress with plans to be refunded after she wears it tonight. His savings money had been depleted due to paying unreasonable damages to Ming Yue back then. While the salary he received was small because he was still fit and not enough to meet his needs.

Gu Anran stared at the dress hanging in front of him. This dress and the dress worn by Ming Yue were designs from famous designs that he said it took him a year to order. It was inconceivable how much the union cost, and Ming Yue had two at once. His hatred is growing.

“Nona, not that one.” The servant who was holding him said. She then showed me another dress that Gu Anran had not seen and handed it to her.

Of course Gu Anran did not realize if there was another dress because the dress was less shining compared to the one in front of her. Although he is sure if the price is not less expensive. But Gu Anran still did not like it, the dress was too simple and she would become a wallflower if she wore it.

Gu Anran received the dress with a heavy heart and went into the bathroom to change.

“Which is right, she wants to wear this dress.she thinks she deserves what?” The waiter shakes his head. She had originally intended to leave the guest after giving him her dress. But seeing that the woman wanted something that wasn't hers, she decided to wait for him.
