Chapter 331 - 312: Third Wheel-II
"We went to father and mother’s memorial." Li Jun Wei explained to his grandparents, receiving a sadness to appear before a smile.
Li Lian caught the expression made by Madam Li. Li family may seem perfect. The family members live in harmony with path of their lives paved without hardship. But Li Lian learned from the four day stay in the house that what may look in the eye isn’t what it seemed.
She could tell that most members had their own problems they don’t voice out and stayed on their place with a smile that may seemed somewhat stifling. Madam and Master Li seemed to be hiding something about Li Jun Wei’s accident but her love for her grandsons were genuine.
"Which reminds me seeing you two sweet couples, I heard that Wang’s son is engaged?" asked Li Rin Zu, the woman starting the gossip.
"He had?" asked Madam Li who was curious, "Is it not a rumor?"
"I heard that they prefer to keep a low profile and request others not to rumor much, I don’t know who would want to start the rumors after knowing Wang Li Lei." laughed Li Rin Zu, forgetting the fact that she was also starting a rumors at the moment. "There are many rumors about the engagement some say..." Li Rin Zu spoke with a bright tone, she found the excitement to tell others of gossips she heard to tell the family members who don’t know of the rumors, even if it wasn’t the truth.
As the other continue the chattering, Li Lian saw a maid walking toward Madam Li to speak, "Madam, the guest of Mrs. Jin had come." as seeing the maid everyone had quiet down to hear the conversation. The maid want to directly tell the message to Mrs. Jin but she heard of how the maids in the second floor was chased out and thought it would best to ask Madam Li then going up.
"Let them in." replied Madam Li and the maid went to come back a few minutes later for a woman to step inside the room. Li Lian who was drinking her tea, first didn’t noticed the woman until she saw the silhouette that came. It was a woman with a beautiful long straight hair almost similar to Li Lian’s hairstyle, body that was slender, and a beautiful face that looked pretty and gentle.
Somewhere Li Lian felt the woman was similar to her and she didn’t know what make her think so. The other lady had similar hairstyle but her face look nothing close to Li Lian. There was also how the woman dressed that almost make her look like her.
