She stood there in composure, not as chubby as she was before when she came to the Lin Family. She looked so skinny. Dressed in a white blouse, she was wearing a coat with white fur. Thanks to the Adulthood Ceremony, she had put on some blusher which made her look quite energetic, and her eyes were large and clear.
She did not show any dislike towards the Lin Family when they met each other. She did not feel like the Lin Family were displeasing her. She was such a nice woman. A woman with a broad mind.
Suddenly, Lin Jiashu would like to find a place to hide himself, somewhere she could not see.
Her eyes put many people into shade, like Lin Jiashu himself. How ridiculous he had been. He believed that she approached him with a purpose, but that was not her purpose. She had a noble man like Lord Huai next to her.
He even considered taking the imperial examination.
So that he could stand in the same place as her and let her look at him with a pair of straight eyes, but he was wrong. No matter how hard he tried, nothing worked.
He had expected that she would look at him with some care, since she cured him before, but that was not the case.
Suddenly, he felt like leaving.
Gu Chaoyan, however, had no idea that Lin Jiashu had been going through so much.
The Lin Family were her mother’s home, so she needed to treat them well.
“Chen Fu, please take my uncle to the guest seats.” Gu Chaoyan said. She would have received them personally, but it was her Adulthood Ceremony today and she truly had no time to receive them. So she had to trouble Chen Fu for this favor.
When Chen Fu heard that, he came forward politely. He was about to lead them there when Mrs. Lin said, “Chaoyan, you don’t have an organizer for the Adulthood Ceremony, do you? Well, I am free, I can help you with it.”
Lin Jiaxing did not stop Mrs. Lin from saying those words. He thought that if Chaoyan needed their help, they could stay, but if not, they could just be ordinary guests. That was what Mrs. Lin told him back at home.
Mrs. Gu snorted.
She threw an sarcastic look at Mrs. Lin. If even she was not qualified, the Lin Family would not at all be qualified. How stupid!
Hearing Mrs. Gu’s sneer, Mrs. Lin replied unhappily. “What are you sneering at? You think that you are better than me? You are just a stepmother. I am her aunt, I am better than you!”
Mrs. Gu sneered again as she looked at her.
“So what?” Mrs. Gu said ironically. “Madame Min is the organizer. You think you are better than her?”
What? Mrs. Lin was shocked. She thought that Madame Min was here as one of the guests, but she was… the organizer?
Alright then, Mrs. Lin was aware that she was not as good as Madame Min, but she was not going to leave when Madame Min was the organizer. She had to stay.
If she was present she might be able to hang out with Madame Min! Then everything would become better! Mrs. Lin just could not believe that there was a pie falling from the sky.
“Then I can be the host, the host, yes!” Mrs. Lin snapped.
