It was after so tis did the door was opened again and this ti two ladies entered the room. They walk in and everyone imdiately smiled at them which Li Lian noticed. Looking to the door, she found Jin Nu Yuan and Ren Linliu. The two won who entered greeted others with smiles as they gathered upon the two girls.
Ren Linliu looked across the room, then her eyes saw Li Lian sitting on her seat with a drink and the smile crept to her lips. She walked toward her followed by Jin Nu Yuan who also noticed her and called, "Ms. Li."
Li Lian turned her face greeted by a smile she returned with a smile, "Ms. Ren and Nu Yuan, good afternoon, I didn’t know you would be here too." she greeted and saw how Ren Linliu smiled at her.
In this room, most won had known by now Li Lian was married to Li Jun Wei. Jin Nu Yuan had long known about it as Li Jun Wei’s cousin but not Ren Linliu. The smile on Ren Linliu was obviously wasn’t from her heart. It was a smile Ren Linliu controlled to make and after seeing endless of fake smiles, Li Lian know which was a smile from heart and which wasn’t. The smile on Jin Nu Yuan wasn’t a good one either.
"Yes, it was a sudden change of mind. I heard Li Lian would be hear from cousin Xiao Chen and ca to find you. I wish to know you better." said Jin Nu Yuan and when the girl co to take a seat as if on cue, the rest of the won sitting near Li Lian stood up and one after another begin to make up excuses.
"How is your trip to here?" asked Ren Linliu as she sat down on the chair to be offered a drink by the servant in the house.
The quick shift of conversation showed how Ren Linliu was often in the situation. There was still sweetness and politeness in her words. They maybe kind to her now but she knows how the world moves between won. The kinder they were, the deeper their hatred was against another.
It made Li Lian wondered if Ren Linliu knows she had been married to Li Jun Wei. Because if her guess were correct that Ren Linliu love Li Jun Wei more than a friend, she wouldn’t be as kind as she was now. It could have been because when Li Lian introduces herself the day they t before, she had introduced her na with the surna Li. If Jin Nu Yuan hadn’t corrected the woman, she wouldn’t know. Li Lian also find there was no need for her to correct her. When tis co, the woman would know.
"It was a smooth road, there was no traffic in this area which help." replied Li Lian. Knowing how they would took control of the conversation, she led to speak, "What about you two? Did you co together?"
"We did, we decided to go yesterday. I didn’t know you would be here either if you do, I would have contacted you." said Jin Nu Yuan who then rembered sothing and ask, "Could I have your phone number? We could exchange contact for the future in case sothing arrives."
"That’s fine with ." agreed Li Lian and they exchange their phone numbers at the sa ti, Mrs. Sun ca to Li Lian’s seat, greeting her as she was the host of the party.
"The garden is opened today as the weather is good, do you want to take a walk there, Mrs. Li? You could go together there and enjoy the flowers." the older woman suggested. Li Lian could tell that the woman only asked her so she could have a breath of the air compared to the stuffy room and felt grateful for the woman’s considerations. But now she was with two ladies who were also interested when the garden was ntioned.
"I heard there would be a fountain in your garden, Mrs. Sun have it been built?" asked Ren Linliu who seed to be familiar with the news across the socialites which was correct.
"It was done by last month." replied the woman.
"We should see it together, I heard the sculpture is the sa person who had participated in the last sponsorships museum. He had won a few competition overseas. I can’t wait to see how it would be build." Jin Nu Yuan praises had so effect that had Mrs. Sun to be happy and proud that the woman knows, "Will you co, Li Lian?"
Li Lian looked up and smiled, "Let’s go."
The three girls stepped out of the room while the rest of the guests preferred to stay inside as the weather was slightly gloom outside. They went and a servant helped them by offering umbrellas that they took. Li Lian opened one for herself and stepped outside to see the garden. There was slls of fragrantly flowers which slled sweet and relaxing. She could also feel the dewdrops making the view better.
As they walked, Ren Linliu spoke, "I rembered that the garden in Li Family is similar to this, but a larger." the woman chid, "Have you went there, Li Lian?"
"I haven’t." Li Lian looked away from the flowers to the tree without looking at Ren Linliu that had the woman to frown. Jin Nu Yuan wasn’t pleased either with the way Li Lian spoke briefly and eyed her behavior with an askance expression.
Jin Nu Yuan was fast to smile and her voice brightened, "You should co next ti, Li Lian. Grandmother would be delighted to et you too. It’s not often for young people to co to the house and grandmother is always happy whenever I co to visit. I know every room in the house, if there are ti, I could show you around." said Jin Nu Yuan like a person who had lived their entire life in Li Family’s house.
