Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, Xiao Yichen turned and left without offering a farewell.
As she observed Xiao Yichen's departure, Bai Lu felt a twinge of reluctance. However, under the watchful eyes around her, she concealed her emotions with a forced smile and went to a nearby table, choosing solitude with a glass of wine.
Meanwhile, Lin Wan and Katie meandered along the garden path. Suddenly, Katie sensed discomfort in her stomach. She quickly informed Lin Wan, "Lin Wan, I need to use the restroom. Feel free to walk around; I'll be back soon."
With that, Katie released Lin Wan's arm and hurried away.
"Katie, should I go with you?" Lin Wan asked with concern.
"No, I'm fine," Katie hastily replied before disappearing.
Upon watching Katie leave, Lin Wan didn't dwell on it. With people around, Katie would be safe.
Lin Wan continued her stroll. Abruptly, a towering figure blocked her path.
Upon looking up, Lin Wan saw an unfamiliar man.
