Chapter 17: Chapter 17: What Right Does She Have to Mind
Chi Gui: “Okay, I’ll go change my clothes.”
By the ti she had changed her clothes and gone downstairs, Zhao Yuexiu was already waiting in the car.
“Miss Chi…” Sister Zhang led her toward the garage and hesitated before speaking, “These noble families all have so pride. If they say sothing unpleasant… don’t take it to heart.”
Chi Gui glanced at Sister Zhang.
She had been kind to her since her arrival yesterday.
“Thank you for the reminder,” Chi Gui smiled.
...
She had no impression of the Su Family in Capital City.
But she was imrsed in dicine and had no impression of other families besides the Four Great Families.
Sister Zhang looked at her and couldn’t help but feel pity, so she said a few more words, “Don’t think that being honored and prominent in Nancheng makes the Chi Family significant. In the grand circles of Capital City, it counts for nothing. The Su Family is an unattainable existence for the Chi Family, which is why Mrs. Su and Miss Chi always try their best to please Mrs. Su.”
Chi Gui listened quietly.
She wasn’t interested in these matters, but Sister Zhang ant well, so she wouldn’t disregard her thoughts.
When they reached the car, Chi Gui opened the door and saw Chi Yan already sitting inside.
She was clearly dressed up, wearing a waist-cinched Little White dress, light yet sophisticated makeup, looking even more well-behaved and endearing.
“Sister, Aunt Su called earlier and said that it had been a long ti since she had seen and that she missed a lot. She asked to co along,” Chi Yan said with a smile to Chi Gui, “You don’t mind, do you?”
Chi Gui calmly got into the car: “I don’t mind.”
Zhao Yuexiu snorted coldly, “Your Aunt Su wants to see you; what right does she have to mind?”
Chi Yan smiled, said nothing, and glanced at Chi Gui.
Chi Gui leaned her arm on her forehead and slightly against the window, her eyes closed, resting, completely ignoring what they were saying.
The Su Family lived in a top-tier villa area on the other side of Nancheng.
The Su Family’s main house was in Capital City, but since their son Su Qing was studying at Nancheng dical College, Mrs. Su had specially co to accompany her son.
From the mont the car entered the Su Family villa, Chi Gui could clearly sense the restraint in Zhao Yuexiu and Chi Yan.
The Su Family’s butler had been waiting at the door for quite so ti.
As the car ca to a halt, he went forward to formally open the door.
He opened the passenger side door, and Zhao Yuexiu and Chi Yan got out first.
The two, who never showed a good face to their servants at ho, were now smiling courteously at the butler, their every word kind and thankful.
Chi Gui got out last and silently followed behind the three of them.
It was obvious that the Su Family’s butler did not have much respect for Zhao Yuexiu and Chi Yan, remaining indifferent and politely distant in his deanor.
Upon entering the living room, Chi Gui imdiately noticed the lady sitting on the sofa.
The lady was dressed in an upscale custom-made white Cheongsam, her hair held up by a jade hairpin. She appeared to be in her forties, but had maintained herself well, with gentle features exuding grace and nobility.
Zhao Yuexiu was also a lady raised in a wealthy family, but in front of her, her aura was sorely lacking.
Chi Yan affectionately walked over and naturally took the lady’s hand: “Aunt Su, I missed you so much!”
Yin Xiuxiu showed a rciful smile: “Then stay at the Su Family’s house for a couple of days! Just yesterday, Su Qing was saying he encountered a difficult dical problem; in the entire school, you’re the only one who can discuss it with him.”
The implication was quite clear.
The smiles on the faces of Chi Yan and Zhao Yuexiu grew bigger at once.
After finishing the conversation with Chi Yan, Yin Xiuxiu then turned her head to look at Chi Gui, who was standing to the side.
The mont she clearly saw the girl’s face, her eyes brightened.
The girl was dressed simply yet appropriately, standing quietly, neither boastful nor cowered in the presence of such an important figure, but poised and calm.
Her hair was casually tied up, revealing an exquisitely pretty face, especially those almond-shaped eyes, so black and so bright.
Even though she was not as carefully dressed up as Chi Yan, she conveyed a very comfortable feeling.
Chi Yan had been watching Mrs. Su’s expressions the whole ti. Seeing her show favor, she bit her lip and said with a smile, “Auntie, this is my sister, Chi Gui. She just ca from Cloud Village yesterday; there are many things she doesn’t understand. After marrying into your family, she will need you and Brother Su to take good care of her.”
