Chapter 517: Something
“The host? Madame Min is the host too!” Mrs. Gu snapped.
Lin Jiaxing had not expected that Mrs. Lin would behave so embarra.s.sedly at the moment. She had promised that she was here to offer Chaoyan’s help, but now she was trying to steal the show. He stopped her directly. “Stop it!”
“What do you mean?” Mrs. Lin was displeased. She had just been countered by Mrs. Gu, but her husband was not defending her and even asked her to stop. She was not doing anything wrong, it was Mrs. Gu who was being impolite!
Lin Jiaxing looked at her. It was Chaoyan’s Adulthood Ceremony, and she as the aunt should not behave so recklessly.
Mrs. Lin did not blink.
It made Lin Jiaxing feel helpless. He pulled her away and then said to Chen Fu politely. “Please, Housekeeper Chen, show us the way.”
Chen Fu nodded. He was about to show them the way when a voice arose. “Princess Yunxi is here.”
Mrs. Lin, who had decided to leave, stopped. What? Was that really Princess Yunxi? So Princess Yunxi was here too?
How honored Chaoyan was! Even Princess Yunxi was present for this event.
As the girl walked in, Mrs. Lin saw her and was shocked. Oh, this girl was indeed a princess. She had such great manners and was the most elegant girl she had ever seen.
Then she spotted Lin Jiashu… What if…
As she thought about this, Mrs. Lin started to go through a plan actively. She had not considered such matters before, but now things were different.
When Gu Chaoyan married Lord Huai, her mother’s home, namely the Lin Family, would be raised to a higher social status as well. The match seemed to work!
Lin Jiaxing tugged at her, and suggested that she should leave, but Mrs. Lin flung away Lin Jiaxing’s hand – d.a.m.n, her husband was so stupid!
“Oh, you are Princess Yunxi right, you are so elegant!” Mrs. Lin said as she took a step forward.
Princess Yunxi looked confused. She looked at Gu Chaoyan briefly.
Gu Chaoyan introduced her calmly. “My aunt.”
Aunt? So Princess Yunxi stopped the cold look and smiled for Gu Chaoyan’s sake. “Greetings, Mrs. Lin.”
The way she addressed Mrs. Lin made her feel so happy. She was so polite…
That basically meant that the Lin Family was indeed enjoying a relatively okay social status. Her plan would work, definitely!
Mrs. Lin was thinking inwardly…
When she was about to exchange a few words with Gu Chaoyan, another voice arose. “Princess Xunyang is here.”
Princess Xunyang?
Mrs. Lin was more than surprised. She was actually shocked! She looked at Gu Chaoyan in disbelief.
It had not been long since they last met and now, this girl had befriended two princesses and got Madame Min as her host and organizer for the Adulthood Ceremony! She was doing well.
She was blaming Lin Jiaxing inwardly as well – it had been a great opportunity and she almost missed it, when he stopped her from coming to the Gu Mansion. d.a.m.n, her husband had almost ruined Jiashu’s life!
When the princess arrived, the greetings were conducted. Everyone greeted her politely.
Princess Xunyang was a very easygoing person and she did not like it when people greeted her in such a grand manner. So she waved her hands and said, “I am here to be Chaoyan’s a.s.sistant, don’t greet me so formally.”
Ms. Lin looked at Gu Chaoyan and then said, “Chaoyan, can you come here, I have a few words.”
Gu Chaoyan was confused for a while, but then she nodded. She spoke to the others briefly and then followed her aunt out.
“Aunt, what is it?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
