Chapter 319: Expecting guests

The whole drama had been witnessed by Chi Lian who had one of her drone’s follow the Wang’s and keep an eye on them once they left after the party yesterday. She wanted to stay on top of everything and ensure that the Wang’s were genuine when it came to her mother. Now that she knew everything that happened back then was not their fault, she was at peace with meeting them.

She could not wait for her mother to meet them too. Madam An in particular had impressed her with her ruthlessness.

Old master Wang too impressed her with his forthrightness because even though Wang Jie was his sister; he did not cover up for her. He left her fate up to the law at the expense of the Wang family’s reputation.

Something did bother her though, and it was the fact that the Wang’s were really too self-controlled. All the men had short haircuts the military style, even the young boys.

The women dressed conservatively, their hair was either black or brown and it was shoulder length maximum. Chi Lian who was planning to temporarily dye her waist long hair red the following week wondered how they would view her.

"I think it’s creepy." T4 who could hear her projected thoughts said.

"It’s weird not creepy and there is nothing wrong with it. It’s a preferential choice." She retorted.

"Are you defending them because they are good people or because they are your family?" T4 asked her.

Yesterday she had nothing positive to say about them and now she was giving them positive reviews.

"If I have to answer then I will say both." She replied.

"Are you going to wrap this photo shoot up because they are coming and will be here in about five minutes maximum? Everyone is coming, and by everyone I mean the parents, the brothers and some nieces and nephews too, this family really moves like a single celled organism." T4 said in wonder.

The photo shoot which was going on was happening at the back yard of the mansion. Chian Ximeng wasted no time when Chi Lian agreed to model for her. She returned today morning with five different sets of winter clothing that she had prepared.

Even though Chi Lian had told her not to include Mei-Mei as a model, Ximeng proposed that Mei-Mei could be included as long as her face was not shown. Right now, her head was covered with a hat and on her face were large snow goggles. The only part of Mei-Mei which was exposed was her beautiful smile and lower chin.

She could hear the photographer say to Mei-Mei "Nice shot." as the camera snapped away. Mei-Mei was posing next to the snowmen in the backyard.

"Are you going to prepare refreshments for your guests, they are two minutes out." T4 reminded her.

"Won’t it look suspicious if I know about their arrival beforehand?" she asked him. "Just tell Meili to deliver some nutro here. The rest of the tea can be prepared from the kitchen directly by the maids and I am sure we have more than enough snacks. Thanks to the virtual farm, we never run out of snacks."

"Chi Lian," Ximeng called as she approached her. As always, Ximeng looked perfect from hair to shoes.

Her red hair is what had inspired Chi Lian to dye her hair red too. Dressed in all white with her red hair flying behind her wildly Ximeng looked like a beautiful witch from a movie about a mythical world. Thank God Muyang was not interested in Ximeng at all.

"Why are your eyes green?" Chi Lian asked Ximeng a question first.

"Contact lenses." Ximeng answered directly. "I heard that you have a white stallion on ground, I think we can use it in the photo shoot. Your next outfits are outdoor winter clothes; one set is plain white and the other plain black. I think if we can get a shot of you riding the horse even briefly it would add a different kind of appeal to the photos."

"No." Chi Lian rejected her immediately.

"Why, are you scared to ride the horse?" Ximeng asked.

"I am not sacred of riding the horse, but Apple is pregnant right now and the vet said it would be best not to ride her."

"Oh." Ximeng said in a disappointed voice.

"Unless, I can just hold her reigns or stand next to her. We can stand next to the hill of snow you guys created over there or between the snow men. Apple can also raise her legs or gallop around for a while as you take shots to see which ones work best."

Ximeng’s smile returned to her face. "Brilliant." She said and hugged Chi Lian abruptly. "I am going to arrange things with the photographer, get the horse."

To ease communication in the house, Chi Lian had distributed the small radio phones which she got from the system mall to all the workers in the mansion and members of the family. Now no one needed to walk a long distance to deliver a message.

Usually her radio was in her storage but at home, she carried it around her belt, in her bag or Qi Qing carried it for her. Today, it was sitting on a small table in the backyard with her phone. "Feng Wu, can you please bring Apple to the backyard." She picked it up and said.

"Yes miss." Feng Wu answered.

"Chi-Chi, you have all been doing this since morning, it’s cold and you are forcing Mei-Mei to work. You can do what you want since you are an adult but don’t get my grandbaby sick." Mama Chi came through the backyard door with cups of hot tea and she did not hesitate to claim while looking very pained.

"Mother, who is forcing Mei-Mei to work? Look at how much fun she is having playing in the snow." Chi Lian was quick to defend herself.

Mei-Mei was happily running around, posing and giggling. The girl had no worries in the world at all; she was a s happy as a clown.

Mama Chi shook her head as if she was confused. "I don’t understand you sometimes Chi-Chi, you used to hate the cold when you were younger but now you say winter is your favorite season."

"Everyone changes when they grow up." Chi Lian replied. "And speaking of changes, I gave Mei-Mei an anti-allergy drug yesterday night so she can now eat sea food."

"Really what kind of drug is that? Did Muyang provide it because he is also allergic to sea food?" Mama Chi was quick to ask.

"Oh crap!" Chi Lian thought to herself. "T4, we forgot about Muyang."

"Correction host, you forgot about Muyang. I can never forget about Muyang." T4 answered smugly.

"Just get the medicine." She retorted while rolling her eyes. "And a bonus one for research when I finally find a building that I can renovate and turn into my lab. You know minister Su is going to go crazier trying to locate it once he sees what the strength increment serum can do.

It will appear more legitimate if I have more than one eye catching sample of something when he accidentally locates the lab."

She and T4 had agreed to drop small hints once she established the secret lab for the minister to find because if she was too secretive and well protected it would not be long before either the emperor or someone in his close circle presented her as a possible threat.

She did not even know how right she was in that assumption because the crown prince had asked the emperor the previous night if there was a group of foreign spies funding her.

"Chi-Lian you should change into a different outfit and come over." Ximeng shouted once Apple was brought over.

"Yes." She shouted back.

She glanced at her mother one more time and hoped that what was going to happen next would bring only joy.
