Chapter 321 Pansies
"Wow! I love that! I didn"t realize that there are flowers that could still survive even when it"s winter!" Zhang Biqi beamed at the flowers in front of her. Jiang Yue was currently giving them a tour around the garden located at the back of the w.a.n.g Estate.
At first, no one expected that there would be such a beautiful garden here. After all, it was still winter. No one would have thought that the w.a.n.g"s would actually employ frost protection techniques on their garden.
"Those are pansies, they were my mother"s favorite." Jiang Yue lied. She wanted to see if these people even knew her mother.
"I thought so! That"s why they looked familiar! I remember how your mother loved flowers when we were young." Jiang Yue laughed inwardly at Chen s.h.i.+"s words. Now, she was able to confirm that these people did not really know her mother.
"Yes. You are right. My mother absolutely loved flowers. This was my mother"s garden back when she was still young. That"s the reason why Grandfather and Uncle did not stop taking care of this garden, " she stated another lie. She wanted to determine the extent of familiarity between these people and her mother.
"I remember her gus.h.i.+ng over this garden before." Chen Yueli answered.
Jiang Yue only nodded while silently sneering in her mind. Garden? Her mother loved paintings and music, not gardens. Although she likes flower, it was not to the point of gus.h.i.+ng over some garden.
In fact, this garden only existed after w.a.n.g Ruo"s supposed death.
"We are here. Please take a seat." Jiang Yue gestured for everyone to take their seats when they arrived at the brick patio near the gardens.
This is the most beautiful part of the w.a.n.g Estate. Not just because of the flowers that were surrounding the area but also because of the man-made waterfall that was delicately arranged by a professional designer as well as the dozens of beautiful trees and shrubs that were planted to highlight the lake that was connected to the waterfall in the middle of the garden.
"Are these all man-made?" Tang Fei asked after taking her seat.
"Yes. My grandfather did all this for my mother," she answered before pointing to the trees. "That part contains w.a.n.g Minghua"s archery field. He uses that area to practice martial arts as well."
"Oh, my daughter, Zhang Biqi, was a champion in archery when she was still in high school. Isn"t that right Biqi?" Chen s.h.i.+ proudly said, carefully observing Jiang Yue"s reaction.
"Oh,I am not a fan of archery." Jiang Yue laughed as she watched the mansion"s servants serve the snacks and beverages. Then she beamed when she saw Fu Jin approaching them."Oh, everyone, I want you to meet my man, Fu Jin."
Everyone then turned their head towards Fu Jin and watched him stride towards Jiang Yue and kiss her in front of them.
"Aiyah, what a beautiful couple." Chen Yueli said.
Jiang Yue then introduced everyone to Fu Jin, including Tang Fei and Chen Biqi who were staring at him as if they would devour him at any moment.
"So you are also a CEO?" Tang Fei asked, her eyes full of adoration. The man in front of them was just too handsome. He was the most handsome man that she had seen in her life thus far.
"Yes, I am." Fu Jin answered before sitting down next to Jiang Yue and pouring her a cup of tea.
"Miss Jiang is indeed very lucky. She is not only so beautiful but she also has a man like you next to her." Zhang Biqi interjected, making everyone nod their heads in agreement.
After a few more trivial conversations, Jiang Yue already felt bored talking to everyone. The Chen sisters just kept on praising Jiang Yue while their children, specifically Zhang Biqi and Tang Fei, were both showing interest in Fu Jin. Not that Jiang Yue cared about flies like them. However, she was getting irritated by the unusual way that Chen Yueli"s husband was staring at her as well as Zhang Wenhao"s subtle words that implied that he was better than Fu Jin.
Jiang Yue felt that this family was very unusual. For some reason, they seemed as if they were not even related and were just following a script, trying to irritate her and make her jealous.
Maybe it"s time to send them a warning, no?
"Oh, why don"t we do something else? I mean, you should enjoy yourselves while you are in the country. Since it"s not yet lunchtime, why don"t we watch Miss Zhang Biqi do some archery? After all, she is an expert!" Jiang Yue smiled at them.
"That would be lovely! Go on Biqi, why don"t you show us your talent in archery?" Chen s.h.i.+ mused, obviously proud of her daughter"s achievement.
Zhang Biqi lowered her head and blushed before sending a side-eye glance towards Fu Jin. However, seeing that Fu Jin was not even paying attention when her mother was speaking, Zhang Biqi instantly felt disappointed. He showed no interest when her mother mentioned that she was very talented in archery. Instead Fu Jin was using his hands to comb Jiang Yue"s hair and only paId attention to what she was saying.
Is this man really so infatuated with Jiang Yue that he would not even watch a good show put on by a beautiful woman such as herself?
