Chapter 237 - Seeing A Ghost (1/2)
Elizabeth place Little Yan down as she thought of a way out of this awkward situation. She can't help but recall what happened last time and how she rejected Shen. However, her heart was beating differently seeing the man. She did not despise him for what he did but she was happy to see him again.
”Shen, Madam Yun it's good to see you,” Lady Zhao spoke seeing her daughter was in a daze and has turned mute.
”Weiwei darling, come look, doesn't Yifie looked beautiful,” Elder Lady Knightley ecstatically spoke as she grabbed hold of Yifie. But was fuddled to see the person with her daughter and granddaughter.
”Yun Shen?”
”Elder Lady Knightley, Lady Zhao, it's good to see you all,” Yun Shen replied as he grabs hold of Little Yan, ”This is my daughter, Little Yan and my mother.”
”Madam Yun, it's good to finally meet you,” Elder Lady Knightley said.
”Ah, this is my future daughter-in-law Lui Yifie,” Lady Zhao introducing Liu Yifie to them.
”Madam Yun, Young Master Yun, Young Miss a pleasure to meet you all,” Liu Yifie greeted them.
”Miss Liu, just call me Auntie, no need to be formal.”
”I shall Auntie.”
”By the way, what are you doing here?” Lady Zhao asked, glancing at her daughter who seem to be troubled.
”We plan to buy some new clothes for Little Yan since she's grown quite a bit,” Madam Yun explained.
”She has, indeed.”
Lady Zhao smiled seeing the little girl all wrapped in her father's arms. She thought since her daughter kept something from her, she planned to teach her a lesson.
”How about we all go together?”
Elder Lady Knightley went closer to Little Yan as she caressed her chubby cheeks, ”I'm sure Little Yan is eager to spend time with Lizzy, aren't you not?”
Little Yan did not say a word but nodded her head vigorously as she then reached out her arms to Elizabeth with surprise Madam Yun and Yun Shen.
”Is something wrong, Madam Yun?” Liu Yifie asked noticing her expression.
”It's just, Little Yan isn't really close to anyone apart from us and her favorite Auntie.”
”Who?”
”The actress Li Zi,” Madam Yun answered bewildered by what she was seeing and how Little Yan was acting towards the Young Princess.
Liu Yifie stared at Elizabeth, surprise that she has such a good bond with the Yun family as well. To think what luck she has or what fate has in for her.
”Madam Yun, our family will be dining later at the new restaurant down Spring Hill Road would you like to join us?” Lady Zhao suggested.
”Sure, I'll call my husband, father and youngest sons,” she replied.
Elizabeth looked at her mother whilst Little Yan was in her arms. She did not expect her mother to even make things complicated for her. 'Mother, what are you doing? Are you planning to get me killed?'
Lady Zhao notices her daughter looking at her, despite she couldn't see her eyes, she knew she was glaring furiously at her. All she could do was smile back at the helpless girl.
'It's your fault for hiding things from me. Your father almost destroyed the Stanford family and here you are hiding the truth from us.'
As the two families roamed the store together they ended up at the mall department store. It contained mix items from women, men, and children's clothing and accessories. It surprises them when Yun Shen suddenly approached Liu Yifie with a necklace.
”Miss Liu, a present for you.”
”Young Master Yun I simply can't...” Liu Yifie hastily rejected the necklace which looked quite expensive.
”I wish you all the happiness in your future married life.”
”But...” she was reluctant until she saw the little girl standing in front of her
”Doesn't Auntie like it?” Little Yan's eyes looked innocent and pitifully at her.
Yun Shen looked at Little Yan and said, ”She picked it for you.”
”Auntie like it, thank you Young Miss,” Liu Yifie went down to thank her.
”Little Yan.” Little Yan said, telling her to address her that way.
”I mean Little Yan,” she giggled seeing how adorable the little girl was and now understand why Lizzy was so attached to her.
