Chapter 492
He Ji Fan sits on the sofa, he is confident and at ease. After he heard what his assistant said. He looks at him and says: “It’s just a mutually benefit relationship.”
“He Zong (Chief He), you mean letting them to come over and join the wedding is beneficial? You did it for Tai Tai to not be embarrassed?”
He Ji Fan smiles. Previously when they were discussing about the wedding guests, Dou Weir looked a bit dispirited and disappointed. So of course he wants to help her to solve it.
“Then why didn’t you ask them directly to come rather than going roundabouts? I’m afraid now they are thinking that I’m their last hope.”
“If I invited them to come would mean that I have to look and help them. They might look for more trouble.” That’s why he asked his assistant to handle this matter.”
The assistant silently raises his thumbs up for his boss. His boss is too smart.
Dou Weir is standing outside the lounge, her back feels a bit cold.
Previously she was wondering who would tell her Shu Shu and Shen Shen about the wedding. It turns out that it’s all He Ji Fan’s plan and indeed He Ji Fan’s plan worked as Dou Weir didn’t lose her face.
“It’s been twenty minutes yet Tai Tai is not back yet.”
“I’ll look for her.” He Ji Fan walks toward the exit.
Dou Weir calms herself down and smiles. She comes inside the lounge. “The restroom is quite crowded. I needed to queue.”
He Ji Fan comes over and hugs her. “Are you okay? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something? Are you thirsty?”
“I’m okay. I’m not hungry or thirsty.” Dou Weir smiles.
Then there’s their boarding announcement. “Let’s go.”
He Ji Fan picks her handbag and hugs Dou Weir to the boarding gate. The assistant also helps to bring all the suitcases.
The plane takes off. Dou Weir leans on He Ji Fan’s shoulder and looks at the blue sky. She feels calm and happy.
Two days later, Dou Weir is sitting on the Bali beach and enjoying the moment.
Dou Weir and He Ji Fan enjoy their honeymoon, while Chen Meng seems not to be in a great mod.
After her son and daughter in-law leave, Zhou Zhou is taken back to stay for a while at He family residence.
Since everyone knows about Zhou Zhou’s realy identity, Chen Meng thinks that Zhou Zhou should follow his mother so she just sends Zhou Zhou back to Bi Yun mansion.
Now every time she sees Zhou Zhou, she feels that this boy looks for different from He Ji Fan. She dislikes him and feels so furious.
Pak!
Chen Meng slaps her chopsticks on the table “You are older now, how could you need someone to feed you. Xiao Yuan, let him eat by himself.”
The maid, Xiao Yuan, wants to say something but at last she just puts down her spoon. She says soft words to Zhou Zhou and leaves.
Zhou Zhou seems to be full, he takes the spoon and plays with the food.
Chen Meng frowns: “Zhou Zhou, you cannot waste the food, hurry up eat it.”
Zhou Zhou seems to not listening to her, so he keeps on playing till the rice is is everywhere on his table.
Chen Meng stands up and takes the bowl and scolds him. “I told you to not play with it. Why don’t you listen to me? Though we are not lacking of rice to eat, but you shouldn’t waste money!’
Zhou Zhou is shocked. He pouts and starts to cry.
“What are you doing?” Old Mother He seems to unable to control. She knows that because Zhou Zhou is not He family’s son so she wants to vent her anger to Shi Ying toward Zhou Zhou. She understands it but why should Chen Meng vent her anger toward the little boy? She wants to mistreat the little boy?
Old Mother He holds Zhou Zhou and says soft words toward him to stop crying.
“Ma, you shouldn’t let him act like this. He is young now, we should teach him good things. It’s too late if we teach about it later on.”
“Alright, don’t talk to me about reasonable things. I know you don’t like Zhou Zhou. But the wrong one is Shi Ying. Zhou Zhou is innocent. If you have skill, then you can find Shi Ying to settle this. Moreover, Zhou Zhou has stayed with us for three years. We should have feeling toward him. A Fan also said it right, Zhou Zhou was abandoned since he was born. He is a miserable one.”
Old Mother He is very sad.
Looking at how tearful Old Madame He is, Chen Meng feels guilty. “Ma, why are you crying? I just scolded him, I didn’t even hit him. Stop crying. Everyone will think I did something bad toward you.”
Though Zhou Zhou is only three years old but he is an observant kid. He could feel his Nai Nai (Grandmother) is changing. He just stays silently on hsi great grandmother.
Old Mother He feels even sad for his dependence.
After the meal, Chen Meng goes outside to play Mahjong with her friends.
When the games and the gathering end, she passes the department store. It’s been some times since she shopped. She lets the driver to stop on the lobby.
The time she wants to get inside the department store, she notices He Shu E. Jing Zong is sending her over. Though they don’t look romantic, but Chen Meng can feel the deep feeling between two of them. Chen Meng pouts.
Jing Zong seems to say few words then he leaves. Chen Meng stays there and waits for He Shu e.
It’s too boring to stroll alone. It’s better to have companion. She also hasn’t said few words to He Shu E after the wedding.
He Shu turns her body and feels awkward for a while. She walks toward Chen Meng. “Sao Zi, you are alone?”
Chen Meng looks at He Shu E’s face for a while: “You are too right. I didn’t notice if before but now you look younger.”
“Sao Zi, you are joking right?” He Shu E is very polite. Though she treats her skin well. But how could it be compared to the twenty years old woman. “Since we are both alone, let’s go together.”
“Okay.” Chen Meng smiles. “Just in time I have a little matter to discuss with you.”
He Shu E knows what she wants to say.
Indeed when they get into the elevator, Chen Meng says: “You did great for A Fan’s wedding. Now everyone knows that there’re poor relatives in He family and we respect them. Dou Weir seems to be stable right now.”
“We are all family. If she is doing great, then He family will be in good place too” He Shu E says: “Moreover it’s not plan to arrange Dou family’s relatives. I was just in charge for feast. As for how could they come and why they came, you should ask your A Fan.”
Chen Meng takes a Champagne-colored dress and says: “A Fan always be so rash and careless. He is naive. I and his Pa are alive, how could he ask you to hold the wedding.”
She clearly talks about He Ji Fan, but actually she is mocking He Shu E.
“I watched him grow up, he is just like Jing Bo Yuan. He came to me for help, how could I be so stubborn and not help him. Moreover, if I didn’t agree to it, perhaps you will hold the wedding?”
Of course not. But Chen Meng says nothing.
He Shu E knows Chen Meng’s attitude so clearly. Chen Meng is not someone that could hide her feeling.
“Sao Zi, you don’t want to help. Da Ge and A Fan are busy for the company. Moreover men are more careless and thoughtless. Ma is old. She shouldn’t be worrying about this matter. Except me, who would take responsibility?”
Chen Meng pursues her lips and talks to the sales assistant. “Take this one for me to try.”
There’s a great noise from the fitting room.
He Shu E smiles and goes to sit down at the sofa. She is not angry. She uses to Chen Meng’s bad temper.
The sales assistant serves a cup of coffee. He Shu E drinks it and glances around. She notices a familiar figure passes by. She sees that it is He Zhang Ju.
Da Ge? Why is he in hurry?
She has doubt but she hasn’t thought clearly about it. Chen Meng just comes out of the dressing room. The dress suits her.
“It’s very good, it’s suitable for you.” He Shu E says sincerely.
Chen Meng also feels satisfied about it. She feels her mood is getting better. She smiles: “It’s better if the color is a bit light.”
“The color is good, it’s suitable for your skin color.”
Chen Meng smiles brightly: “Really? Okay, then this one please.”
The sales assistant is happy and praises hi. “Fu Ren (Mrs), your taste is very great. It’s a newest one so it’s quite limited. I guarantee you will not have someone to wear some outfit as you in public.”
“Give me the check.”
“I just.....” Chen Meng pays for it. Then He Shu E comes out with her and wants to talk to her about He Zhang Ju. But they bump into two familiar people.
They greet each other and say goodbye. He Shu E forgets what she wants to say to Chen Meng.
They both stroll around the female and male sections. Then He Shu E goes to the child department.
Looking at children’s products makes Chen Meng remembers about Zhou Zhou.
“What do you want to do?”
“I want to buy things for my grandsons and granddaughters. It’s been a long time since I bought clothes and toys for them.”
Chen Meng wants to sit down and rest. “Then go and take a look, I’ll sit down there and wait for you.”
“Don’t follow me again. I told you clearly that I don’t want to continue to live in the dark. I want to live upright and frank.” Chen Meng listens to a fight between two people.
There’s an emergency exit near the resting area. That woman is shouting. Not only Chen Meng but a lot of sales assistant look at the door.
“Rui Rui, is someone saying something to you? Tell me what happened? You never act this way before.”
This voice makes Chen Meng be startled.
He Shu E is choosing the clothes for her grandchildren so she doesn’t pay any attention to other things.
Chen Meng stands up and walks toward the emergency exit door. She doesn’t know why but she feels her legs are weak.
