Chapter 6 Part2 (1/2)
Chapter 6, Part 2: Reunion
Ling Jing Wan was very careful and observant. Obviously, she also noticed something, she smiled and said, “Cousin Hong is someone who will have a bright future. Although we are only cousins, we are all looking forward to him excel.”
Intentionally or unintentionally, the word ‘cousins' was bitten a bit heavier.
Saying that they were cousin was just barely adequate. Lu Hong was born from the first wife, he had no blood relation with Ling Family.
Ling Jing Xian shut her mouth with embarra.s.sment.
Ling Jing Wan turned her head and looked at Ling Jing Shu. Her smiled was rather gratified, “Cousin Shu's body has finally recovered. I have been worried for these few days, now I can finally rest a.s.sured.”
If she really cared about her, why did she not visit her at Qiu Shui Pavilion in the past few days?
Ling Jing Shu smiled and said, “Thank you Cousin Wan for your concern.”
There were many female in the residence so naturally there were many quarrels. Ling Residence's population wasn't small, so it wasn't easy to deal with everyone. Ling Jing Wan looked quiet and beautiful, but in fact her mind was very alert.
Old Madam Ling regard highly and most cherished Ling Jing Shu. Ling Jing Xian felt hateful, Ling Jing Wan was not a saint, she also felt jealous in her heart. However, Ling Jing Wan was more adept at superficial work, better than Ling Jing Xian at hiding her feelings. Moreover, Ling Jing Wan's marriage was already fixed at the beginning of the year, and now her heart was all about waiting to be married. Her compet.i.tiveness towards Ling Jing Shu was also lessen.
Old Madam Ling was getting older and liked to be lively. At noon, she asked everyone to stay for lunch.
All are female so there wasn't a need to be seated separately. Everyone sit down around the big table.
Ling Jing Shu was sitting directly opposite of Madam Ling. Occasionally, she lifted her eyes and Madam Ling's smiling face could be seen clearly.
A familiar smile, a stabbing eye-ache.
Ling Jing Shu had never hated her incompetence more than now. Her enemy was sitting in front of her, at her fingertips, but she couldn't do anything!
To take revenge, was it required for her to marry into Lu family like her past life?
As soon as this the thought crossed over her mind, she threw it away to the back of her brain. In this life time, she was no longer willing to have any involvement with Lu Hong. To take revenge, she must find another way to do so. What's more, her enemies were far more than Madam Ling.
“Shu jie-er, why haven't you moved your chopsticks at all, are the food not to your liking?” Madam Li looked at her with concern, showing as though she was a very doting mother.
Everyone's eyes suddenly looked over. Ling Jing Shu had indeed did not touch her food much.
Sitting opposite of Madam Ling, it would be strange if she could eat something.
Ling Jing Shu faintly replied, “Yong He hall's food is very good. It is just my body had just recovered, my appet.i.te is not good. I am sorry to worry mother.”
It was neither cold nor hot, making Madam Li touched a soft nail.
