He's My Fiancée ! : I Went Back To The Past and You !

Chapter 209: Socialites' Conversation-II

"Thank you for your worries, I feel a little shy to say it here, but I do receive the recommendation letter directly from the college due to my exam mark. However, this is my first time to hear such gossip, perhaps because people here are more knowledgable. Also, those gossip of bribery is very unfair if and very concerning." On a flat surface, she sounded greatly praising but deep down she had another meaning in her words that sharply sink the women's conscience. She pointed out that the normal people outside the socialite's circle have never heard such news yet the socialite's group had such a rumor running among them. Why was that? There was only one answer because the bribery is only practiced by the socialites who have endless wealth. Thus it wasn't a wonder why people like her do not know such gossip.

Xiao Yun wrapped her cold tone to warn the rest of the women whose family member enrolled in the college by bribing. Silence ran across the garden, some people exchange glances at each other, having a quiet murmur between their mouths. Wang Shi Ning quieted down, looking at Xiao Yun with an accusing glare.

"How brave." The woman opposite to her whispered. "Don't you heard that Mrs. Yan's daughter couldn't enroll in the university due to her bad grades and at the end had to bribe the professor with quiet money."

"I know and yet here she dared to talk about others. Such a thick-faced woman."

Mrs. Yan and the people sitting in Xiao Yun's table could hear their conversation even with the quiet whisper. Her face turned red from shame and her lips twitched. Immediately she laughed to break the sudden silence after Xiao Yun's words and changed the conversation immediately before the little lady could control their conversation.

"The road here is beautiful, isn't it? I couldn't expect anything less from Wang Family." Mrs. Yan turned her face to Wan Yan Zhi to receive a contented smile from her. "Thank you for the praise, Ms. Yan."

"Grandmother has always tended the house in the best care, that's why there is not even a single scratch in the house's walls!" Wang Shi Ning replied brightly while hugging her grandmother's hand. The women laughed at her behavior.

"My, my, young lady Shi Ning is very close with her grandmother, what a good view of a familial relationship. Did anyone heard about the Kan Family? The eldest son took in a woman without a good family background, resulting to their whole family's relationship becoming broken." Said Ms. Yan while placing her teacup with her thick-faced sarcasm.

"That's why we shouldn't bring a sly woman inside the family. Such a relationship should be cut first before it had already took a root to the family." The other woman spoke, placing thorns over thorns toward Xiao Yun.

"Well, we shouldn't speak of other's family's matter anymore. What I was surprised the most, was the view of the garden. It had never changed at all since the last time I pay visit here. The beauty of the garden is very well preserved, I'm very intrigued about how to keep the garden that well, don't you agree with me, Ms. Lin?"

Lin Chang Lu chuckled, brushing her hand on her chin she shook her head faintly. "That's true. I'm also curious of how grandmother take care of the large tree in the middle of the maze. The maze is newly made about eight years ago but the tree is older than that yet it stayed beautifully in the middle of the maze, I'm very astonished."

'Tree?" Xiao Yun asked herself. The old tree that she met in the garden, no wonder she felt nostalgic when she stood under it. It was the tree where she met Wang Li Lei for the first time. It was the same tree where they first met and where she took Wang Li Lei's heart with her.

"As Mr. Li Lei's childhood friend, you often came here. I remembered in the past that you two were very perfect for each other both handsome and beautiful and smart." The woman chided and giggled with a not-so-subtly comment to Xiao Yun.

"Yes, Chang Lu Jie-jie and Elder cousin really do suit each other since young! They were the perfect childhood sweetheart!" Wang Shi Ning commented happily, agreeing with the idea of Lin Chang Lu to become Wang Li Lei's fiance.

"Ms. Jin, Mei-Mei please don't jest about that." Lin Chang Lu warned to have the woman looking at Xiao Yun with a smile, "Please don't take my word to heart, Ms. Yu I didn't mean to be rude. Of course, Ms. Yu wouldn't take my words as offending, wouldn't you?"

Denying Ms. Jin's words and said that she took her words would lead to another sarcasm telling how easy it was for Xiao Yun to be offended and how she's still young and hot-headed. Truly every words that the women gave were filled with nothing but sharp thorns for her to step in. Wang Shi Ning on the other hand, didn't bother to apologize as she thought her words were righteous.

"Don't worry, Ms. Jin, no offense has been taken." Xiao Yun replied with her still-collected smile, making the rest of the women to become a little agitated by her lukewarm attitude. Attacking at one time but defending at another, Xiao Yun's behavior remained unpredictable to them. They became wary to what card Xiao Yun would use and more than that, they were still skeptical whether Wang Yan Zhi acknowledge her as Wang Li Lei's fiance. In one hand, Wang Yan Zhi showed no care on the people who was trying to offend Xiao Yun but she also didn't help others to offend Xiao Yun. It was as though she was watching as the third person. But what was she watching? The women's sarcasms? Or if Xiao Yun is able to handle these women?

The question remained to the woman herself.

Lin Chang Lu had her sharp eyes hawking at Xiao Yun. Naivety and stupidity is innocence yet for the little girl across her now, her naivety could rip down people's evil deed without having the need to do so.
