Two years later.
Tong City, in front of a five-star hotel.
Ling Ruonan stepped out of a taxi. She paused for a moment and looked at the hotel's display screen, where the words "Welcome to Mr. Li and Miss Lu's Engagement Party" flashed by.
She glanced at it briefly, took a deep breath, and then walked into the hotel. She approached the front desk in the lobby and asked, "Is the Li Family Eldest Young Master's engagement banquet being held here?"
The receptionist replied, "Yes, it is."
Ling Ruonan handed over a gift box to the receptionist. "Please help me deliver this to Mr. Li," she said, placing 1,000 yuan on the desk. "This is your tip."
The receptionist, thinking it was just another engagement gift being sent, smiled and asked, "Should I pass on a message to Mr. Li?"
"No need to say anything. Just deliver it directly to him."
"Alright."
