The Villain’s Wife 709 Beliefs
In the end, Lily ended up sleeping and was not able to join them. After a few minutes, Zhou Jingren decided to sleep next to his wife while the others enjoyed the view from the peak by the pool.
The next day, Lily and Zhou Jingren woke up early as they still needed to go to their respective offices. "You are awake?" Lily smiled at Eliza who had just walked out of her room.
"I slept early last night." Eliza responded as she eyed Zhou Jingren who just finished making fresh juice for Lily. His action imdiately made her smile as it sohow reminded her of her father and mother. Sitting next to Lily, she said, "Mr. Bei told us that he would bring us to one of Fernando’s clubs in Hong Kong. I was not even aware that Fernando owns clubs."
"He owns a lot of clubs. Mainly because he likes to party every ti he visits countries.Also... are you sure you are allowed to go to clubs?"
"Hmmm." Eliza nodded. "Depends on the type of wig I wear." She bead. "Levi and I have done it a lot before. Of course, we do a lot of stuff to change our appearance, wigs and prosthesis."
"Really?" Lily raised an eyebrow.
"Of course." Eliza bead. "Plus... I have the boys with . Bei Tian and Qin Yuanfeng and Secretary Go and of course Yang Mi. Bei Tian also promised so security. Of course, if you and Zhou Jingren are coming with us then... it will be better."
"Of course, we will." Lily smiled. Now that Lily thought about it, she could not really rember when was the last ti that she went to a club with her friends.
"But we will leave early." Zhou Jingren said as he sat next to Lily.
"Of course." Lily bead.
"You are leaving for your office?" Eliza changed the topic, "etings?"
"Yes, I have a eting. Sadly, Yuanfeng is not yet awake. So I will go by myself."
"Can I co with you?"
"You want to visit Facci Group without Levi?" Lily asked.
"Hmmm. He can co with Yuanfeng." She quickly opened her phone and sent a text to her brother.
"Then, all good." Lily nodded before the trio started eating.
After a sumptuous breakfast, the trio left the mansion. Lily and Eliza went to the Facci Group while Zhou Jingren had to go to his office to sort out so things.
When Lily and Eliza arrived at the Facci Group, Lily just acted as usual and started doing the things that she was supposed to do. While she is busy signing papers, Eliza spent so ti on her laptop and doing so stuff that were related to her current charities.
They were already working when Qin Yuanfeng and Levi arrived around noon.
"We were waiting for you." Lily smiled at her brother. For so reason, seeing Qin Yuanfeng bond with a cousin is made her happy for him. She stood from her seat. "We are going to have lunch then do so shopping."
"We just had food." Levi said as he eyed Lily’s office. As expected his eyes imdiately turned towards the large painting in Lily’s office.
"We’re not asking you to eat with us dummies." Eliza retorted. "We are asking you to co shop with us so you could bring our shopping bags back." She chuckled, amused at her own words.
Lily also chuckled. In the end, Qin Yuanfeng and Levi accompanied their sisters shopping for so things that Eliza could bring back to Hong Kong.
"So you are saying that snow white is not good for my — our niece?" Eliza eyed Lily in disbelief. Last night, she heard Zhou Jingren and Bei Tian joked about Lily’s particular dislike against princesses. Of course, she thought it was nothing but a joke to tease her and Yang Mi.
"I’m not telling you not to buy them." Lily shrugged, ignoring Eliza’s question. Instead she started eating the shrimp that Qin Yuanfeng peeled for her. Who cared about snow white? Seafood was everything, alright?
Eliza pouted. Last night, she was talking nonstop about Disneyland and how good it is to enjoy a day in the fairytale world, away from politics, away from the real world. Who would have thought that Zhou Jingren would tell her to talk to Lily about fairy tales so that she could stop swooning over it?
Then Bei Tian had also chid in about how Lily’s views about the world were sowhat different than the people’s common beliefs. And this was what made her a difficult opponent. Who doesn’t love fairy tales?
mories of her Barbie princesses collection imdiately ca to her mind. "What’s wrong with snow white?" she asked, trying to push her luck, hoping that Lily would tell her that she was only joking.
"Nothing." Lily bead, her eyes glued towards her brother as he helped her with the crabs. In response Eliza cleared her throat. Growing up, Eliza was not able to interact with a lot of people her age. Because of this, her childhood was full of watching fairy tales and dreaming about them.
Again, Eliza pouted. Every princess she watched always reminded her of good qualities that a woman should have, loyalty, kindness, hope, gratefulness and bravery. She always believed that these are all the traits that a woman should have. While she was not soone who embodied all these traits, she was hoping to teach her nieces about the things that she learned for watching and reading all those princess books that she had. "Co on." She uttered.
"We are eating." Lily responded. Turning her head towards Eliza, she smiled while eting her curious eyes. "If I tell you my thoughts now... you would not want to finish your lunch."
Interest flashed in Eliza’s eyes. What thoughts would make her not want to eat her food again? "You are bluffing." She bead. "Your personal opinion would not really affect my appetite." To her, Lily’s opinions are hers and she would not try to convince her otherwise. "Co on." She added, hoping that Lily would move her attention from her seafood and tell her sothing interesting.
Sothing opposite to the beliefs that she had since she was a child.
