"I know your mother loves already, but do you think other mbers of your family will like too". Chen Lihua threw another surpring question at him.
"Of course. Who wouldn't like you".
Having understood her situation, Liu Longwei smiled and asked, "Are you nervous?.
But he got a sincere reply, "Who wouldn't be. Ok, try not to provoke at this point". Chen Lihua warned him seriously.
And Liu Longwei raised his hands in surrender, "You don't need to be nervous. Just smile and treat them the sa way you treat your patients".
But all he got for his wonderful suggestion was a smack on his head.
Just then, their convoy drove into the premises. The distance from the gate to the villa is sothing else. So they had to drive for about 3 minutes to get there.
As their cars parked, Chen Lihua breathed in and out, so Liu Longwei had to squeeze her palm gently to calm her.
"Relax". He said to her.
There was sothing about the look that accompanied that consolation Chen Lihua didn't find it funny. But that made her to muster up more courage.
After throwing him a glance, the door was opened for her by the bodyguard, and she ca down.
Liu Longwei ca down as well as he buttoned up his suit jacket. Then he walked to her side to stand together with her.
Just as they were abou to take a step, Madam Liu ca out with a handso middle aged man with all smiles on their faces.
"My son and daughter-in-law are here". Madam Liu said as she walked up to them and embraced Chen Lihua happily.
Then she pecked her on the cheek as the father and son looked on in astonishnt as Chen Lihua returned the kiss as well.
Chen Lihua was released from her embrace and with all smiles she asked, "Mother am so happy to see you, and you are looking younger than the last ti i saw you".
Madam Liu raised her brows and aske dwhile lightly patting her cheeks with a smile, "Oh! thank you daughter".
It didn't take up to two seconds before the two won laughed out loud.
"You just acted and sounded like Lady Chen". Chen Lihua said, suddenly missing her mother.
"Yes, and i did it purposely. Your mother is really a character. I wish she was here to make things more lively". Madam Liu sighed before saying, "But you don't have to worry as things will
get lively soon".
"Honey won't you give a chance to greet my daughter-in-law as well?". The middle aged man who has long been forgotten interrupted.
"Oh that's right. Honey et Lihua, your daughter-in-law, she's Lady Chen's daughter. Lihua et my husband, Longwei's father, your father-in-law". Madam Liu introduced happily, but leaving the three speechless.
In other to leave the awkward atmosphere, Chen Lihua had to quickly greet her father-in-law.
She bowed her head as she said her greetings in pure chinese, "Good evening father, it's nice to see you".
Although her greeting sounded foreign, nobody found any fault with her.
Liu Longwei's father, Liu Huang smiled with satifactiin as he patted Chen Lihua's shoulder, "Hello, it's nice to see you too".
Suddenly rembering her Son, Madam Liu looked at him. and as their eyes t, she smiled awkwardly as she said, "Let's go in quickly as the others have already been waiting for a while".
Liu Longwei just shook his head, 'I just got a wife and i've already been forgotten. If i have a child, what will be my fate?.
Maybe i wouldn't even be recognized'. Liu Longwei said to himself bitterly.
With Madam Liu and Master Liu leading the way, Chen Lihua and Liu Longwei followed behind.
Just as Liu Longwei tried holding her waist, Chen Lihua smiled and warned him in a gentle tone, "No PDA (Public Display of Affection) today. This is your ho, and we are here to see the elders, so behave, no getting touchy".
Liu Longwei quietly withdrew his hand with a smile. He didn't raise any objection, which seed to imply that he understood what she was talking about. And that's unlike him when it gets to the matter of being touchy.
They walked through a hall way before entering through a door. The second door was opened by the servants who had their heads lowered.
As soon as Chen Lihua walked into the livivg room, she saw an old lady sitting, talking and laughing with a a younger lady.
Another young lady was sitting in a dignified manner with two kids sitting o each of her sides, two girls.
Just as they entered, the old lady looked towards their direction. Not Only her, all eyes were on them.
Madam Liu didn't delay in introducing Chen Lihua to everybody who were currently in that room.
Holding her hand, she introduced them one after the other.
"Lihua this is my mother-in-law". Chen Lihua bowed ang greeted the old lady with a smile.
"Co to my Child". The old lady said.
Chen Lihua had no choice to to walk to where the old lady was sitting.
The old lady gently held her hands as she looked up to her with a bright smile, "You are very beautiful. I've heard so much about you from my daughter-in-law. And you look so much like your mother".
Chen Lihua said truthfully, "thank you so much grandma for the complints. You look good as well, you are very healthy at this age unlike so other people of your age".
The old Lady and everyone in the living room except the lady with the two kids laughed heartily.
"Good good". The old lady said happily after laughing for a while.
And then, Madam Liu continued with the introoductions.
"Lihua this is my eldest daughter, Longwei's imdiate junior, Liu Huiling".
"Hello sister Huiling, it's nice to et you". Chen Lihua greeted with a dignified smile.
Liu Huiling sized her up for two seconds before finaly nodding with a satisfied smile.
"It's nice to et you too. You are indeed as beautiful and elegant as your na says".
