Chapter 28: Chapter 28 What Shouldn’t Have Been Seen?
"Mom," Shen Yi called out, followed by Ye Wanwan.
Lin Xu smiled and said, "I was just talking about you two with Xiaoran, and here you are."
The Xiaoran mentioned by Lin Xu was the middle-aged woman sitting next to her, who was her longtime friend.
Shen Yi naturally knew her, bowed slightly, and greeted her very politely, "Auntie He."
"This must be Wanwan, you look really beautiful and spirited. It’s such a pity I couldn’t make it to your wedding," He Xiaoran said somewhat regretfully.
Ye Wanwan quickly followed suit and called out, "Auntie He."
Ye Wanwan had known her mother-in-law’s close friend in the past life, but after all, that was a matter of the previous life. Today was the first time she met Auntie He in this lifetime.
"Wanwan, come and sit," Lin Xu beckoned, indicating for Ye Wanwan to sit next to her, then said to Shen Yi, "Your dad is upstairs in the study, go find him yourself."
Shen Yi nodded and turned around, lightly patting Ye Wanwan on the top of her head, as if to tell her not to be nervous.
Ye Wanwan pouted slightly in dissatisfaction, her hair all messed up by him, but Shen Yi was smiling with his lips slightly raised, before heading to the upstairs study.
He Xiaoran and Lin Xu watched the small interaction between Shen Yi and Ye Wanwan, exchanged a knowing look, and began to laugh in silent agreement.
"Don’t stand there, come and sit," He Xiaoran also gestured for Ye Wanwan to join them. Without hesitating further, Ye Wanwan walked over and sat down between the two women.
He Xiaoran and Lin Xu continued their chat, and Ye Wanwan occasionally added a few words.
But Ye Wanwan was somewhat distracted, because there was not only the three of them sitting here. Clearly, there was a young woman sitting beside He Xiaoran.
Yet from beginning to end, no one mentioned her. The woman hadn’t spoken a word, as if she didn’t exist at all.
The woman was dressed in a blue dress, with chestnut-brown, big wavy hair, slightly bowing her head. Her hair fell down and covered her face, giving off a strange aura.
No one acknowledged her presence. Could it be that only she could see the woman?
In Ye Wanwan’s mind, her mother-in-law Lin Xu was a very cultivated woman, who wouldn’t ignore someone like this even if she didn’t like them, especially since they were at her home. This was too impolite!
Moreover, since Ye Wanwan herself was a person who had been reborn, she couldn’t help but start to think wildly.
Had she seen something she wasn’t supposed to see?
As Ye Wanwan thought deeply, the woman suddenly turned her gaze towards Ye Wanwan, startling her thoroughly.
Sitting between He Xiaoran and Lin Xu, and very close to both, her sudden shiver was naturally felt by them.
For a brief instant, the smile on Lin Xu’s face froze. She held Ye Wanwan’s somewhat cold hand and gently patted it, saying in a light tone, "That’s He Qingyun, your Auntie He’s niece."
The smile on He Xiaoran’s face also gained a few traces of warmth, "We got so caught up chatting, I completely forgot to introduce her to you, Wanwan. This is my niece, He Qingyun."
"Nice to meet you, Miss He," Ye Wanwan greeted half-heartedly.
Her heart was still thumping wildly; so, it wasn’t just her who could see He Qingyun—it wasn’t anything unclean!
But why was the look she gave her so terrifying?
It was cold and seemed as though she wanted to devour her whole!
