Chương 382: Old Friend

"You are not going to drink that?" the Old Man said when he saw Lily only offered a toast but did not drink the champagne. He gave Lily a stern look, a direct response to her rudeness.

"I don't do alcohol." Lily smiled. "I used to… but not anymore."

The Old Man grunted until her gaze fell into Lily's stomach. Then a tinge of understanding flashed in his eyes. "I see." He nodded. "My apologies then."

"I will drink that." A voice interrupted them and before anyone could say anything, Zhou Lanying already got the glass and drank its contents. She held the empty glass and gave both Lily and the old man a smile. "I hope you don't mind."

"You-"

"Oh... please… Miss Lily here is a good friend." Zhou Lanying's sudden declaration instantly caused some murmurs from the people who heard them. "I mean… I considered her as one. After we met in Paris… In one of my recitals. Ah… was that two years ago?"
