Unconditional love really exists in each of us. It is part of our deep inner being. It is not so much an active emotion as a state of being. It's not 'I love you' for this or that reason, not 'I love you if you love me.' It's love for no reason, love without an object.
Ram Dass

The woman wore a golden lace mermaid dress, her hair tied into a high fishtail braid and thick makeup was applied on her face. She held a wine glass filled with champagne, she walk towards a lively group of people.
She taps her hand on Zhou Qin Yang's shoulders and smile " Can I join in the conversation ? " Half of the group look at the woman with confusion, only AJ, Lu Wei Wei and Liu Hao Jie frown when she appeared.
" Miss Liang, pleasure to see you here " AJ force a smile to her. Liang Xi Xi ignores AJ and turn to Zhou Qin Yang " Are you the one that walking Lee Jun Ting just now ? "
Zhou Qin Yang didn't know why but she felt uneasy with this person's tone, the other members are also cautious about it. Qin Yang put on her best smile " Yes. President Lee invited to me to be his partner for the night. May I know who are you ? "
Liang Xi Xi scoffs " You don't know who I am ? What is your name ? " Of course Zhou Qin Yang knows who she is but to avoid a awkward conversation she had to ask. Zhou Qin Yang smirks " Haven't anyone taught you to introduce yourself first before asking someone else's name ? "
" Ahem.. of course. I am Liang Xi Xi, I am part of the Lee Corporation's legal team. " her face blush slightly because of Qin Yang's respond, she offer her hand to shake. Qin Yang took her hand to shake " My name is Aurora, president of Saints Funding Organisation. "
Liang Xi Xi grips Zhou Qin Yang's hand tightly, Qin Yang grits her teeth and held in the pain " Saints ? Isn't that a private organisation? It's amazing that you manage to make an organisation to help those in need. "
Qin Yang fake a smile " Yes. I always wanted to help those in need. "
Liang Xi Xi skipped the stories and went straight to the point " So what is your relationship with Lee Jun Ting ? What qualifications to you have to walk with him ? You may not know this but I am his fiancee "
Zhou Qin Yang froze for a moment when she heard Liang Xi Xi's confession. Since her voice was a bit loud, Lee Jun Ting who was not far from them also heard her, Jun Ting immediately frown. He didn't know Liang Xi Xi would be here today.
Zhou Qin Yang held her breath and steady herself " I think you are mistaken, Miss Liang. I am just a close friend to Lee Jun Ting, I am just returning a favour today by being his partner for the night." She glance and met with Lee Jun Ting's hazel eyes, they held their gaze for a second before Qin Yang turn and look back at Liang Xi Xi.
Liang Xi Xi gave a sly smile " Good. I wanted you to know your place. I wasn't aware about this arrangement " Zhou Qin Yang didn't say anything, Luciel sense something was wrong in the conversation. " Miss Liang, if he is your fiance why didn't you come with him ? "
Xi Xi was a bit flustered by the question, she glares at Zhou Qin Yang " I don't know either, he didn't even contact me about it. He usually would tell me everything. Maybe someone seduce or bribed him. "
Her accusation made the Saint members frown, Lu Wei Wei steps up " Miss Liang, I think it's time for you to leave. Our group is in the middle of something just now till you interrupted " meaning she is a outsider in the group.
Liang Xi Xi wasn't going to give up, from the start she was not satisfied that her Lee Jun Ting walked in with another woman in his arm. She raise her voice to garner attention " What's wrong? Did I hit the spot ? What are you hiding? "
Zhou Qin Yang look at Liang Xi Xi way of talking like some crazy woman screaming on the street, she didn't bother to respond at all. Liang Xi Xi clenched her fist as Qin Yang didn't give the reaction she wanted. She decided to step over the line and reach her hand out towards Zhou Qin Yang's face " Are you ashamed that you hide behind a mask ?"
All the members were on alert, they move towards Liang Xi Xi to stop her from removing Zhou Qin Yang's mask. Because of Liang Xi Xi's fast hand, her fingers reached the mask first. As she was about to pull it out, a broad palm grabs her wrist and yanks it away.
