Chapter 376 - 357: Sneaking Mission-II
From the information Li Lian received after her talk with He Chang Min, her mother was someone who had come from a Yakuza family, therefore hating Li Lian for a reason which could involve her family but what was it? Which family did the woman came from?
"You shouldn’t mind her words, Li Lian. I am sure she didn’t mean that about you." said her grandmother because Mrs. He had spoken with the way alluding that Li Lian would be there and she also took note on how Mrs. He had been ignoring her granddaughter. The action made by Mrs. He had Senior Mrs. Xie to set her lips in dislike.
"She must be afraid," said Li Lian gathering her grandmother’s eyes on her, "They say usually mother hold the most insecurities before marriage, her words weren’t kind but I could understand." Li Lian wondered what expression Mrs. He would have when she learned He Chang Min didn’t like Xie Hue Lin in the first place and had agreed to the engagement for the revenge he claimed.
"It is understandable but not acceptable," her grandmother insisted. "I will never let anyone in this house to speak to you the way you did. I failed in the past and from now on, it shall never happen again."
Li Lian hugged her grandmother, feeling the warmth and her head snuggled on her shoulder, "You didn’t fail to protect me grandmother. You helped me many times in the past and what happened was unavoidable."
"Let’s go down, should we?" Her grandmother offered as they pulled from the hug. Li Lian brought her finger, rubbing the index finger which was empty from accessories and her smile appeared.
In meantime, Li Jun Wei stepped out from his car, having the chauffeur to open the door and on his hand was yellow bouquet he hold. His suit wasn’t black but in a gray color with a navy necktie and an inner black vest. Before he entered the house, all eyes were on him and the chattering grew quiet on his arrivals.
Some question amongst each other who was the new guest after marveling on his handsome face which never fail to attract attention even when his face was inexpressive.
He Chang Min standing at the door had his eyes widened to the belatedly realized he must have received the invitation from Li Lian as she was given the invitation twice. Xie Hue Lin’s eyes widened, recalling what had transpired between them on the day when they met before the elevator, they didn’t had a good exchange or first meeting impression. Then why was the man here on her grandmother’s birthday? Was there someone someone he know?
