The weather today is sultry and overcast in the rainy season. The street lights are turned on in the Li family courtyard and the crystal chandeliers are turned on indoors. Everything is bright and dazzling.
Yun Qiao wore a green plain cheongsam and jade bracelets on her wrists. There was a clear spring flowing around her body, giving her a slight chill.
Wen Luyao's milky white jacquard soft silk cheongsam is also unassuming. Because the fabric is expensive, it looks more elegant. She wears ruby earrings on her ears, which are the finishing touch and make her round face more pleasing to the eye.
Mrs. Li met Wen Lu Yao twice and Yun Qiao once, but she always knew these two great names.
She was followed by her daughter Li Huzhu, who came over with a smile to entertain Yun Qiao and Wen Luyao: "Welcome distinguished guests. The weather is not very good today, but you two still came to show your respect. The plum blossoms are shining brightly."
After finishing the courtesy, he introduced his daughter next to him, "This is Hu Zhu."
Li Huzhu Youshuang has special slanted phoenix eyes. When she is not talking or smiling, her charm comes naturally. But when she smiles, her eyebrows are curved, her teeth are neat and glutinous, and she is very sweet.
She seemed to be chasing a duck, and was not very good at speaking well. She just laughed along, and her face was a little stiff when she smiled.
Mrs. Li poked her twice, probably because she disliked her stupid mouth.
"I'm a little thirsty. Where can I get a drink?" Wen Luyao was impatient to socialize and interrupted Mrs. Li's chatter.
Mrs. Li hurriedly said: "Hu Zhu, take Miss Wen to the drinks counter."
Li Huzhu said yes.
She didn't talk much along the way. She only glanced at Wen Luyao and Yun Qiao occasionally and smiled at them: "Here, walk slowly and be careful where you step."
The humidity in the rainy days made the living room with marble floor tiles extremely slippery. To prevent guests from falling, the Li family specially laid a carpet. However, the carpet was too thick and it was easy to sprain your feet if you stepped on it with high heels.
Li Huzhu was stumbling as he walked, so he told Yun Qiao and Wen Luyao to be careful.
After seeing off Yun Qiao and Wen Luyao, Li Huzhu planned to have a glass of orange water to take a break. Her face turned sour from smiling. The maid came over and whispered to her: "Madam, please come over. Another distinguished guest is here."
Already."
Li Huzhu muttered something in English, but no one heard her clearly. She smiled at Yun Qiao and Wen Luyao, said excuse me, drank the orange water mixed with ice cubes in one gulp, adjusted her facial expression, and turned around to leave.
.
Yun Qiao: "...This Miss Li is quite interesting."
Hearing that Lu Yao was lukewarm: "You don't understand her."
"The first impression is very good." Yun Qiao said.
Wen Luyao: "When you first met me, did you have a good impression of me?"
"You and Uncle Qi were very clingy at that time, like a social butterfly. Where can I see you?" Yun Qiao said.
Wen Luyao: "I'm going to strangle you to death!"
When the two almost started fighting, Xue Zhengdong also walked over.
Guests came in one after another, and they were all in the garden or the restaurant. The ballroom and the wine bar were located in an open space next to the restaurant, so it was relatively quiet for the time being.
"Mr. Xue." Yun Qiao saw him first, nodded, and took the initiative to greet him.
Xue Zhengdong returned the courtesy, and then ordered a glass of ice-cold orange water. He was tall and well-dressed, and despite his inconspicuous appearance, people should not look down upon him.
"...I found a very good French restaurant." Xue Zhengdong held a water glass in his hand, "Last time you said that restaurant was not delicious and said that I was perfunctory. I have always remembered this."
"I just said it casually." Wen Luyao was embarrassed, "Ask Yun Qiao, I usually speak freely, and I don't mean to accuse you."
Xue Zhengdong then laughed: "Can I treat you to a meal? It's my wish granted."
Wen Luyao glanced at Yun Qiao beside him: "Please change places, I want to have a few private words with Mr. Xue."
