64 Prideful Mannequin (2/2)
Madam Li was the youngest of them all and the most arrogant too as Old Master Yu doted a lot on his only daughter. It was rumored that when she was married to Master Li she was only 18 years old.
Taking Madam Lu advice into consideration for a second, Lei Xinyi nodded seriously. It was no use provoking the fire breathing Mama Dragon, when she was planning in a couple of months.
'The woman will make her living miserable for nothing. It was better to ignore her like a plague because that woman once scorned is in fact a plague. ' Lei Xinyi thought and smirked.
Getting out of the Bugatti Lei Xinyi saw the Li Mansion that seemed to be a palace of a Mighty Emperor. The place could literally give refuge to a whole small city.
Lei Xinyi had seen the Mighty Yu mansion too many times up close but such magnanimous sights never seem to amaze her less. `
The Li Mansion emanated power and dominance with a twisted shade of elegance and class. Any looker would agree that the residents had a taste.
Lei Xinyi followed Madam Lu all through the castle-like Mansion into a place which could be said a sunroom, with rare species of herbs and flowers that Lei Xinyi could name with one look.
Between all that beauty seven ladies and a young woman were sitting on a round table. And the young woman was… Shen Chen, who was sitting beside Madam Li hiccupping with an aggrieved face.
Lei Xinyi eyebrow arched and face twisted looking at Madam Li patting her back soothingly.
This can't be anything good…
Realizing their arrival all the eyes turned to them and Lei Xinyi abruptly changed her expressions to a shy smile and timid eyes.
All the women in the room were looking at her with infuriated and displeased gazes but Madam Li was outright glaring at her with contempt.
Madam Lu ignored their reaction and cheerily greeted everyone in the room. Lei Xinyi made a nervous and aggrieved face at their reactions then gave a strained smile and greeted everyone.
Unknowingly every woman felt their heart stings fluttering by one look at the pain on the beautiful youth face. Madam Li felt the same but instantly hardened her heart.
As Lei Xinyi reached close to madam Li she greeted her gracefully bit her lower lip nervously and brought the tea wooden box forward, ”Mom, I… I prepared this Narcissus Wyui Oolong tea for you. It is rare and refined to its finest. I hope you will like it.”
Madam Li was infuriated by the girl calling her 'MOM' when she never acknowledged the girl but she couldn't say anything in front of these socialites to preserve her image.
Madam Li looked at the rare tea box with disdain and then turned her eyes filled with rage on Lei Xinyi. She slapped her hand hard on the table.
Lei Xinyi pretended to be intimidated as she jumped a step backward with fright. Inwardly Lei Xinyi rolled her eyes at the prideful mannequin tantrum.
Madam Li sneered and said with suppressed rage, ”You hope I will like it?! You think I will ever like anything ever about you?! First you act like a wh*re and elope with some man then defame Xiao Chenchen in front of public!”
