i i’s interview ended on a good note with a thunderous applause. She had brought gifts for the live audience which was Whiskers ten rchandise and one ticket to the space camp for two people.
To her surprise, the guests received even more gifts. Small cakes from Huaqi, top quality underwear in black gift bags for privacy and Huaqi’s tea leaves.
As they were having their make up removed she asked Rize, "Isn’t this a little too much? Who provided the underwear?"
Rize laughed in turn. "Didn’t you know that your mother-in-law owns an undergarnt company worth hundreds of millions? I am pretty sure that all the underwear I saw in your closet and Mingzhu’s are from this brand."
Now that it was ntioned i i realized that she had not bought new undergarnts ever since madam Feng moved in. She just didn’t seem to run out of new ones. She had assud it was the doing of her mother, Rose or aunt Manchu.
"You are marrying into a wealthy family with a caring mother-in-law and loving husband. This is what we always dread of for you." Rize spun the chair around to look at i i.
The make up artist shifted to allow the won converse without a human blockage between them.
"I am not getting married just yet aunt, I simply have a boyfriend." She reminded her.
Rize let out a tiny snort. "A boyfriend you live with. Not just him but his mother too. Face it my dear niece, the cuffs are already partially on. Tell the truth though, are you comfortable living with them?"
She was asking as a concerned aunt that was worried about her niece being pressured into a situation she was unprepared for. It was one thing to live with a mother-in-law after marriage and another to live with her even before.
i i did not have to think of the answer because she had it on the tip of her tongue. This question, her mother had asked before.
"Madam Feng moved in to help fight Mrs. Sun and Mo Liang before the divorce. It was a relief to have her with and it is still the case to date. She takes care of the house, the servants, and Mingzhu.
She promised that she would never put any impositions of a mother-in-law on and she has never done so. Instead she pampers and spoils . I never worry about anything at ho as long as she is around.
She even transfers back all the money I deposit in the household account and pays for all the expenses at ho. Not even once, has she ever ntioned the nice things she does for or asked for a favor."
"Really." Rize replied with a note of curiosity in her voice.
i i raised a finger, "Wait, she did ask for one favor. She told to take care of Jingzhe’s heart. That he has been waiting for his whole life and he would be devastated if I changed my mind about him.
And so would she. She told about how she had co to love and Mingzhu and she wanted us in her life forever. What surprised most was when she told that I could take my ti when it ca to kids. She promised never to pressure into having children or make a fuss if all of my children with Jingzhe were girls. That she would love them fairly no matter what."
Rize couldn’t help smiling even more and thinking that she needed to tell Chi Lian about this. They did not have to worry about i i anymore. She would be pampered even more in future, it seed.
i i was not aware of what was going on in her aunt’s mind and she continued, "I like living with her and Jingzhe. We can learn more about each other faster like this. If we do marry soday, our lives won’t need to adjust, we will just keep living as we are doing now."
Rize sighed. "That’s great."
The make up artists stepped back. Rize and i i changed into different clothes and t again at the door of the dressing room.
"Do you want to have dinner with ?" Rize asked her.
i i thought about her dinner plans. She did not have any and she was planning to head ho.
"Manchu and Rose are at the Supre Karaoke bar. I am going to join them. We are going to eat hot pot and enjoy so karaoke." Rize added.
i i frowned and tilted her head. "Aunt, isn’t that the bar with the hottest male hostesses in the empire."
Rose wagged her winger. "They are male models, not hostesses. They just strut on walk ways in designer clothes, dance a little and accompany guests in singing. They do not sell sex. They are just very good looking personal shoppers. Also, they are male and female, not just male."
i i grasped the handle of her bag tighter. "Aunt, don’t explain much, I am in. I can use the opportunity to buy Jingzhe so nice clothes. Do they model sweat pants?"
"Sweat pants!!" Rize walked ahead and i i followed. Their assistants and bodyguards also followed slowly, calling ahead to inform others of where they were heading.
Assistant Han called her mother to report the i i would be ho later than usual. Mama Su told her she would relay the ssage to Madam Feng.
Madam Feng and Jingzhe were still and Kang Zhenzhen’s ho as the afternoon tea party had run longer after the Empress Mother showed up. They were waiting to unveil the main cake of the event.
i i was still explaining sweat pants to her aunt as they climbed into the sa car and lifted off.
Rize was more interested in another topic. "I spoke to Rong Minmin in the morning and she told that your little boyfriend bought out the dress makers at Xiong’s bridal shop for this whole month.
Apparently they are making so kind of special wedding dresses for you. Do you realize that this is the reason as to why everyone is starting to think that you two are getting married?"
i i groaned. She had tried to talk Jingzhe out of it but he would not be stopped. He wanted at least twenty versions of that illegal wedding dress made for her. He had sent her ssage about this while she was at work.
She did not think that he had already moved ahead to execute the idea.
