You Are My Gravity

At that time, Qin Se had been skeptical. Still, she went to the hotel with the room card. Everything turned out exactly as the mystery informant said.

Why was this person acting mysteriously? Who was she or he, and why was this person telling her all this?

Unfortunately, Qin Se didn’t have time to think about it because Wang Qiuxia’s fifty-fifth birthday was about to occur.

She had to prepare a massive present for her birthday.

Otherwise, their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship would be in vain.

***

In the blink of an eye, her mother-in-law’s birthday had arrived.

Wang Qiuxia was fifty-five years old this year. Therefore, she had ground her teeth to spend a fortune by holding her birthday party in a five-star hotel that was run by the Gu family. She had booked the restaurant and invited all her friends and relatives to the banquet.

She was the kind of person who liked to show off. Her personality was not exactly generous, but she loved to impress others beyond her own abilities.

She was over fifty years old this year as well as overweight, but she still loved to dress up gorgeously.

Today, she had put on her best jewelry. All ten fingers were decorated with gold rings, a thick gold bracelet was on her wrist, and a gold necklace adorned her neck. In short, she had covered every possible area of her body with jewelry.

Perhaps because it was her birthday, Wang Qiuxia was in such a good mood, and she was busily showing off to all her relatives and friends. She didn’t pay much attention to Qin Se nor did she yell at her.

Before the banquet began, Shen Rui brought an attractive young man over with him to his mother.

“Mom, this is my friend, Zhao Boyuan. You can call him Little Zhao. He heard about your birthday and insisted on coming over, saying he had to celebrate the event.”

Zhao Boyuan exclaimed exaggeratedly, “Oh, my God! Shen Rui, is this truly your mother?! She does not look much older than you! I can tell that both of you look similar. I was just about to ask you if she was your sister!”

Zhao Boyuan’s words made Wang Qiuxia delighted. Her initially narrowed eyes squeezed into a slit as she smiled and pulled Zhao Bo Yuan’s hand in affection.

Qin Se watched from the side as the corners of her lips curved upward ironically. She let out a lovely smile on her face but cursed these motherf*ckers in her heart.

Her husband had brought his lover to his mother’s birthday... such a brazen move. Obviously he had no fear.

If it were before, Qin Se would have believed what he had said.

But now, looking at Wang Qiuxia’s smiling face, Qin Se thought to herself,

‘If you knew that this man was your beloved son’s lover, would you be so excited to the point where you might have a heart attack?’

Zhao Boyuan flattered Wang Qiuxia from all aspects, saying that Wang Qiuxia’s beauty was comparable to a fairy, and those compliments made Wang Qiuxia’s heart burst with joy.

After that, Zhao Boyuan turned his attention to Qin Se, and his expression became somewhat rigid. “You are... sister-in-law, you are quite beautiful yourself.”

Qin Se smiled shyly and lowered her head to reply, “Not at all. You are flattering me. Little Zhao, you truly know how to make a conversation. My hubby, Shen Rui, could never bring himself to say such words.”

The corners of Zhao Boyuan’s mouth became stiff for a moment.

No matter how insignificant Qin Se was in Shen Rui’s heart, she was still his wife.

In front of so many people, Zhao Boyuan could never openly announce his relationship with Shen Rui.

Qin Se’s words were an enormous provocation for Zhao Boyuan, just like a knife pierced into his flesh.

Shen Rui didn’t pay much attention to Qin Se from the beginning. The two of them didn’t look like a couple at all.

After three rounds of wine, Qin Se got up from her seat just as everyone was feeling high.

She picked up a chopstick, knocked on the wine glass, and waited for the crowd to quiet down before she started to talk.

“Everyone, today happens to be my mother-in-law’s birthday. I have nothing much to present, but I know something both Mom and Dad will be thrilled about. In fact, it may be the best gift they will have this year!”
