nLi Peirong was surprised to see Zi Yi and Zi Lian come back empty-handed, when they returned to the hotel. “Didn’t you buy anything?”

n

n

nZi Lian was in a bad mood, so she replied patronizingly, “Aunt Peirong, she didn’t find anything she liked, so we came back after doing some window shopping.”

n

n

nThe moment she finished her sentence, she added, “I am a little tired, so I am going to rest.”

n

n

nShe headed back to her room when she was done talking.

n

n

nLi Peirong could tell that Zi Lian was patronizing her, so she felt worried and had an ominous feeling about this.

n

n

nShe probed Zi Yi. “Where did you go today?”

n

n

n“Window-shopping,” replied Zi Yi before heading back to her room.

n

n

nLi Peirong did not keep her. She frowned from behind as she watched Zi Yi leave.

n

n

nAfter Zi Yi closed the door, she knocked on Zi Lian’s door.

n

n

nZi Xu had gone out earlier in the morning and he happily asked Li Peirong, when he got back in the afternoon, “Where is Yiyi?”

n

n

n“She’s in her room.” Li Peirong saw his expression and felt surprised, so she nervously asked, “What happened?”

n

n

n“Call her over. The He family called me. Madam He wants us to bring her over and see her tonight.”

n

n

nLi Peirong was caught by surprise. She did not expect Madam He to summon Zi Yi so quickly.

n

n

nZi Lian happened to walk over when Zi Yi came out.

n

n

nZi Xu happily said to her, “Yiyi, get yourself dressed up. We are having dinner with Madam He tonight.”

n

n

nHe said to Li Peirong worriedly, “Help her with her makeup. The butler said that Madam He doesn’t like it when women put on thick makeup and also get her to tone down her dress style.”

n

n

nHe stood up and headed out of the room. “I am going to get a gift.”

n

n

nLi Peirong watched Zi Yi as Zi Xu hurriedly walked away. She pondered in her heart how best to make Zi Yi leave a bad impression on Madam He. She then smiled and said, “Let me help you with your makeup.”

n

n

nShe turned to look at Zi Lian. “You are coming along with us as well, so you have to get dressed.”

n

n

n“Okay.”

n

n

nAfter Zi Lian went back to her room, Zi Yi said, “I will do my own makeup.”

n

n

nShe headed back to her room.

n

n

nLi Peirong was worried, so she followed behind her.

n

n

nAfter Zi Yi went back into her room, she continued using the tablet.

n

n

nLi Peirong asked, “Aren’t you going to do your makeup?”

n

n

nZi Yi did not look up. “Didn’t Dad say Madam He doesn’t like women who wear thick makeup? Since I am already pretty without makeup, it doesn’t matter if I don’t put on any.”

n

n

nThis suited Li Peirong’s plans well, but she attempted to sound concerned about the potential marriage and said, “I think that’s a bad idea.”

n

n

n“It’s perfectly fine.”

n

n

nZi Yi was determined and kept using the tablet with no intention of putting on makeup.

n

n

nLi Peirong assumed she was playing video games. She forced the smile on her face down and asked, “What do you plan on wearing?”

n

n

nZi Yi replied, “The white outfit with ruffles.”

n

n

nIt was a pantsuit.

n

n

n“Aren’t you going to wear a dress?”

n

n

n“Nope.”

n

n

nLi Peirong finally left the room in satisfaction to tell Zi Lian to doll up.

n

n

nShe was not going to remind Zi Yi that it was deemed rude to go without makeup, especially when they were visiting an elder.

n

n

nZi Xu came back with a gift. He frowned when he saw Zi Yi walking out of her room, when they were preparing to leave.

n

n

n“Why are you wearing that?”

n

n

nHe could not tell that Zi Yi was barefaced.

n

n

nHowever, he felt that girls looked the best in dresses. “Go put on a dress.”
