Mr. Xie walked toward Senior Mrs. Xie, he was happy with how everything smoothly turned out without noticing any expression from the man who he had said would marry his youngest daughter.
"Mother, you should say a few words of blessing too, Hue Lin wish to hear your blessing," he said and Senior Mrs. Xie’s eyes moved to her youngest granddaughter.
There was a feeling in Senior Mrs. Xie that despite the love she felt for Xie Hue Lin sowhere along the line, the love faded. Until now she did still think dear of Xie Hue Lin but at the sa ti, there was a feeling in her that say it was better to keep distance.
Being told to say a few words of blessing for the marriage which will happen soon between He Chang Min and Xie Hue Lin, she didn’t feel she would like to say one. Not because she doesn’t approve of the marriage but with Li Lian who just left, she didn’t think it was appropriate for them to announce marriage suddenly when they had invited Li Lian.
The old woman then thought it was her birthday’s invitation that may have burdened Li Lian to co ho and see the announcent. Li Lian said she was alright but the anger must be there sowhere to He Chang Min who had betrayed her and her sister who stole her fiance while keeping her under the dark.
Regardless it was her granddaughter marriage. Senior Mrs. Xie agreed to Mr. Xie. She made her way to hold Xie Hue Lin’s hand giving her blessing and wish for her to have a lasting marriage.
When Mrs. Xie ca to hold He Chang Min’s hand, she wondered why it felt cold. Then her eyes looked up to see He Chang Min’s face pale as sheet. "Are you alright, Chang Min?"
On the question, Mrs. He ca beside He Chang Min, she took a hold of her son, "Chang Min? Chang Min?" When she called her na for the second ti, He Chang Min fell to the ground collapsing with a loud thud and a sound of scream ca out of surprise.
At once, soone ca to bring He Chang Min, Mrs. He was in shock when she saw his son fainted and went to rest him at once place. Xie Hue Lin also left and the party had to put to an end due to He Chang Min’s condition.
After a doctor had co to check, Xie Hue Lin kept to stay beside He Chang Min like the saddest person who found He Chang Min fainted. His mother was in the sa room, encouraging Xie Hue Lin.
In the anti, Mr. Xie ca to talk with Senior Mrs. Xie in her room, "Mother you can think about it again for once," said Mr. Xie, trying to sway his mother’s mind. "I think this is too hasty. Why do you have to point Li Lian as the next heir to Xie Company? Unlike Hue Lin, she learned nothing about business much less how to organize a company."
"I have said this last ti and my opinion would never change. Also it didn’t seem like you know but Li Lian did studied business. She went to a music school but also took the lesson out of her own will. I believe she has plenty of study to put into practice," Senior Mrs. Xie who was tending the bouquet on the vase Li Lian gave her then settled it to look beautiful before taking a seat to her chair.
"What about Hue Lin then? That girl had studied in business school, spending her ti to study all day and night to reach the perfect score; and to help the family business. Yet you want to give the company to soone who had left the house?" Mr. Xie sighed, demanding justice for Xie Hue Lin.
Senior Mrs. Xie who was in a good mood frowned on her son’s words and her hand slapped the table with enough power to startle him, "Rember this it was not Li Lian’s wish to leave the house but you and your wife’s wish! Hue Lin would soon be married to He Chang Min who had plenty of his own wealth. What about Li Lian? She is alone out there, living the hardest. As a grandmother I have to leave sothing for her future in her parent’s stand who had never grew her!"
"Mother!" Mr. Xie protested. "You did not rember what she did? She used drugs, asking our company’s sales plumt and embarrass our family na I had no choice but to disown her! You always think about Li Lian but do not forget your have to granddaughter. Do you think Hue Lin would be happy knowing this?"
"If Hue Lin is sensible enough she would know not to be selfish and to share with her oldest sister who had never received anything from this house," replied Senior Mrs. Xie. Xie Hue Lin characteristic was always as a gentle and kind person. If she is kind, she would be able to let go the company for her older sister, thought Senior Mrs. Xie.
She still couldn’t shake off the feeling inside her that said Xie Hue Lin was strange and weird.
"That would be unfair for her to be patience just because she has that kind of older sister!" Mr. Xie said and Senior Mrs. Xie stood from her chair, her hand waving at him as if to tell him to go.
"I have enough of this talk. If that is all you ca here for, you can leave. I am in no mood to discuss this matter ever again," Senior Mrs. Xie pressed her fingers to her head feeling tired with what was going on.
Mr. Xie still couldn’t agree to her choice but seeing how tired his mother seed, he knew not to push his luck by demanding her and leading her to illness. "I will co again," said Mr. Xie before turning to leave the room.
Soone who had been standing near the door keep their ears open to eavesdrop the conversation from the gap created between the opening of the door. When Mr. Xie turned his face to the direction of the door, the person quickly hide and made way behind the walls.
