Li Lian could not respond to his words, her eyes stopped at the realization that perhaps that night sothing did happen, sothing crucial that she forgot. "Co and take a seat, Xiao-Lian." Before Li Lian could seek an answer from him, Li Huian offered her a seat beside her. Li Huian was a kind woman, Li Lian thought. She felts the old woman was similar to her maternal grandmother in Xie Family. Recalling her own grandmother, Li Lian felt a little worried of her health. One could say that her grandmother was the most person with authority in the Xie family and Xie Hue Lin would have to think twice before harming her. However, in that house with Xie Hue Lin and her parents, she couldn’t help but worry about her safety. It would be walking to a trap if she wants to et her grandmother, but she has to do it soon.
Walking with next to the seat, Li Lian sat down and looked across her seat to see that Li Jun Wei was seated across her while another woman sat on her right side. The woman was still in her twenties, her face was delicate and she had a pair of beautiful long wavy brown hair that flowed down to her hips. Smiling the woman greeted her. "It is our first ti to et each other, I am Jin Nu Yuan, Jun Wei’s third cousin. I have been waiting to et you for a very long ti! Now that I see you, I can understand why Jun Wei falls for you, you are very beautiful." The woman pulled her red lips, her hands held Li Lian’s palm showing kindness that made Li Lian felt a little uncomfortable for so reason.
"But what would I call you as?" Jin Nu Yuan asked again with a long hum.
"Xiao-Yuan, what are you asking? You could call Li Lian as sister in law." Li Huian replied with a laughter, looking at Li Lian seeming to wait for her answer.
"Of course," Li Lian nodded at Jin Nu Yuan and saw the woman pouted her lips. "That is not what I an, Li Lian is about the sa age as , right? I don’t have that much friend of my age. So I want to get closer to her. Can I just call you by your first na?"
"But Xiao-Yuan, you have to call her base on her seniority." Li Huian scolded lightly.
"No, no I don’t mind it." Li Lian waved her hand. "You can call with any nickna you feel better." Hearing her words, Jin Nu Yuan bead to a wide smile.
"This girl, she is always like this." The woman beside Jin Nu Yuan spoke, placing her teacup elegantly down to the table, she looked at Li Lian and pulled a smile. "I’m sorry for the late introduction, I am Jin i, Nu Yuan’s mother also Jun Wei’s aunt." Mrs. Jin introduced herself, keeping her eyes faintly seizing her whole figure.
"Nice to et you." Li Lian smiled back at the woman.
"But Jun Wei is already married and it was really unexpected." Mrs. Jin giggled.
"I know right?" Li Rin Zu, Li Jun Wei’s second aunt chided. "I don’t an to offend anyone but Jun Wei seems like the last person to be married. I almost thought he does not have any interest in won."
Li Long Hua the young man who had just taken a seat next to Li Xiao Chen in the corner of the room both to avoid the attention of their aunts and uncles rolled his eyes. "Second aunt still have not changed at all." Li Xiao Chen whispered at Li Long Hua and received a comrade nod. "Right? Instead, she had just beco worse you know."
"Speaking about that, where is Li Ye Hua? It is his birthday you know. If he does not co now, who knows when it would be our ti to be chewed alive by the second aunt?" Li Xiao Chen threw so glances around.
"I agree, but I also can not find him anywhere. The last ti he sent this ssage saying that he is leaving for a mont to greet his friend." Li Xiao Chen gave a long oh as he replies, his eyes stole a glance at his sister in law who sat very far from him with a worried expression. His grandparents were not at all a bad person, they had said that they will welco any woman that his brother chose. However, the sa thing couldn’t be said to his uncles and aunts.
Li Lian noticed the gloomy look upon Old Madam Li’s face after receiving Li Rin Zu’s words. She had been very worried about Li Jun Wei’s interest in won and how he seed to be having no single intention in marrying anyone. Li Lian didn’t know what to answer to Li Rin Zu’s statent and chose to reply with little words as possible. Turning her face she glanced at Li Jun Wei who was still having a talk with Jin Nu Yuan’s father.
"That is not true and you know it better, don’t you, Rin Zu?" Mrs. Jin covered her mouth with a giggle. "Right, elder?"
"Of course that is not true." Elder Li held Li Lian’s palm warmly. "Li Lian is here now, right?"
"Yes, Jun Wei is a very kind man." Li Lian noticed how her eyes have been sought Li Jun Wei every ti she looked away and just then as it ca to her realization, Li Jun Wei who heard her giving a praise to him chuckled happily. He moved his lips, mouthing. "Thank you." Without a voice and went back to talk with the second uncle.
Having her cheeks reddened she shifted her eyes away and t Li Nu Yuan’s gaze that had a slightly startled expression. "Of course he is. But Jun Wei had rarely co to visit the Family house, Nu Yuan had been waiting for you, you know." Mrs. Jin veered her conversation over to Li Jun Wei, picking a tone.
"Mother!" Jin Nu Yuan called. "Jun Wei must be very busy with his work."
