Chapter 388: The engagement [1]
The irony of this situation was the fact that she started the random scandal on Miflame as the peep star but it had come to bite her back in the ass as Chi Lian. It was like firing a stray bullet in the air to scare off an intruder only for that bullet to come back and hit you.
Thank God that T4 had footage of her walking out of the bar very sober. All suspicions and narratives would be buried with the video.
Bang! Bang! Bang! There were three urgent heavy knocks on her door.
Qi Qing entered the room frantically as if she was being pursued by a demon.
Chi Lian looked at her and she asked, ’Why are you barging into my room without waiting for me to answer."
Qi Qing looked apologetic however she replied, "Young miss, if you do not come down right now your grandmother is going to rip my head off. She is downstairs threatening hail and brimstone."
"Tell her that I am coming."
Qi Qing shook her head like a terrified little lamb and she refused to move.
"Are you that terrified of my grandmother?" she was surprised because for the first time, Qi Qing was defying her orders.
"She is scary my lady, way more scary than Blackguard. Please you have to save me." Qi Qing responded like a pitiful little bird.
Chi Lian laughed and decided to go downstairs before her grandmother could terrorize any more of the maids.
She put all of her worries aside and decided to enjoy the day. This was her was and only engagement banquet, she planned to have no other. If she spent it miserable and anxious, she would be a fool.
Downstairs, she saw bags of things being dragged inside by the maids. Her grandmother was watching all of these things like a hawk in the door way.
With the way she barking orders like a commander of armies even Chi Lian could not help but feel frightened.
Her soft spoken grandmother had turned into a roaring dragon all of a sudden.
"Grandmother," she called out as she gently went down the stairs moving in the way the trainer her grandmother hired taught her.
She was trained to move silently like the gentle wind and sway like a dancer.
She had also had her body forcefully bent and placed in different aerobic positions by that trainer. Thank God that she was flexible or she would have been snapped into ten different pieces.
"Great you are finally here, hurry up and go to the massage room. You have to look more than beautiful today because we have a point to prove."
"Ah, grandma, what point do we have to prove?"
Grandma An poked Chi Lian in the back and she pushed her in the direction of the massage room. "Did you not see those claims online that you are not worthy of Muyang? We have to destroy all your haters today."
Chi Lian laughed at her grandmother’s words. "Grandma, who taught you the word haters?"
Grandma An looked proud because she used the word correctly. "Chi Zimo has been teaching me the lingo. Yesterday Bolin almost dropped to the floor when I said ’hey dude’ to him."
She laughed loudly as she recalled the memory.
"Grandma, I would have loved to see it. Next time call me so that I show up when you are planning to shock someone. We can even plan some pranks together."
Grandma An welcomed that suggestion happily because even though Chi Lian was her granddaughter but they rarely hung out for fun activities together. It would be nice to connect in a more intimate and relaxed way.
Chi Lian was pushed inside the massage room in the house. Previously, there was one massage table but now there were four.
Two of the tables were occupied and in use by Rize and Wang Tong.
"This is my engagement, why are you all getting pampered?" she joked.
Rize raised her head and said, "I have always been pampered."
"Ho the princess rubs her privileges in as always." she replied.
Chi Lian covered herself with a towel and she lay down on the massage table. All the oils used in massages at home were brought by her from the system mall. The room smelled sweet like a candy factory.
"Rize, thank you for standing up for me and attempting to clear my name."
"Anytime Chi-Chi, this was clearly a slander campaign. I think someone did this deliberately, it cannot be a coincidence that it was made viral the night before your engagement."
"That’s what I said." Wang Tong added in.
"Nothing is going to stop me from becoming Mrs. Jun. They can send an entire army if they want or drop a missile on the venue, nothing is going to work." she replied.
"I have to say, whatever oils these are, they have a way of making the body feel so relaxed. I have never felt this good in my life." Wang Tong said.
Neither Chi Lian nor Rize responded, they were busy enjoying the feeling of stress escaping from their bodies like ghosts.
After the massage, they all received facials. Chi Lian saw Wang Tong secretly eating the cucumbers which were covering her eyes. Her masseuse kept replacing them but Wang Tong kept munching.
These cucumbers were from the virtual farm and Chi Lian did not blame her. They were quite sweet and they all loved snacking on them.
After the massage facial and full body scrub, Chi Lian was pushed to her bedroom to try on the gown which she was to wear for her engagement banquet.
Grandma An was inspecting her as if she was a prize show dog. She poked prodded and pulled at different sides of the gown. "The waist is a bit loose, have you lost weight?"
"I don’t think so, I have been eating way more than usual." she replied.
"Maybe it’s because she has been working out a lot. You go for runs, you spar and you lift all those machines in the gym. How can you not lose weight?" Mama Chi asked in a complaining tone.
"It’s fine," Chi Lian brushed her off, " nobody will notice anyway. The dress fits just enough and I look beautiful. You should all go and prepare yourselves, we have less than two hours left."
"You look beautiful." her mother whispered before leaving the room.
Grandma An smiled, proud of her handiwork and she too complimented Chi Lian.
All that was left was make up and hair then she could be off to officially enjoy her engagement.
