The man apologized to her hastily.

As soon as he finished saying "I'm sorry", almost without any interruption, he shouted: "Seventh Young Mistress?!"

The Seventh Young Mistress... Jane covered her painful shoulder and took a clear look at the person in front of her - he was so shocked that the original eager and painful emotions seemed to be temporarily put aside, and he just stared wide-eyed. Looking at her, he said something incredulously...

Jane nodded and said, "Go up and see Qiu Wei, Huzi. She needs you."



This morning, bottles of gardenias were placed in the Cheng Mansion one after another.

It’s the middle of winter and gardenias are very rare. Using gardenias for decoration on such a large scale should be considered very luxurious.

Jane originally wanted to order ordinary roses. But the owner of the flower shop was worried about his batch of expensive gardenias that could not be delivered, and was willing to ship them at a very low price, so she temporarily changed the roses to gardenias. In today's world, every copper plate can be saved.

So all day long, even the people who were busy in and out of the Cheng Mansion preparing for the dinner were smelling of gardenias and were beaming with joy. Ever since the American dean who lives here returned to China, the mansion has not been so lively for a long time.

The banquet was scheduled for seven o'clock in the evening, but the first batch of guests arrived early.

Jane Cheng was still changing clothes at that time. When the maid came to tell her that Mr. Mei Mengxian, his wife, and Miss Mei had arrived, she hurriedly hung the pearl earrings on her earlobes, ordered to serve tea, told Mr. Mei that I would be down soon, and took the time to apply lipstick on her lips—— She pursed her lower lip, the balm moisturizing her lips, and her snow-white face suddenly became vivid. She blinked, patted a little rouge on her cheeks, rubbed it, and pinched it again... She shook her head, swung up her two pearl earrings, and tapped her cheeks.

This makeup should be very eye-catching.

She changed into her evening shoes and left the room. After taking two steps, she realized that she was not wearing glasses. She thought about it and did not go back to get them. She came down from upstairs, inspecting the furnishings in the mansion along the way. The fragrance of gardenias alternated between strong and weak, refreshing and made her feel inexplicably much better... She took a look downstairs first.

The small living room in the mansion is directly under the stairs. At this time, there are four people sitting on the sofa - the elderly man in robe and mandarin jacket is Mei Mengxian; the middle-aged lady sitting next to her wearing a cheongsam and fur must be His wife is the mother of Mei Yanchun, a woman in a western dress. Apart from Mei Yanchun, the only other person left is Mei Jikang, who has had a double relationship.

This Mei Jikang, wearing a dark gray tuxedo, neatly tied with a Windsor knot, looks elegant. He seemed to raise his head accidentally and saw her standing on the stairs, so he stood up with a smile and gestured to his brother and sister-in-law.

Jane Cheng also smiled and nodded, and walked down the stairs.

As soon as Mrs. Mei raised her head and saw Jane, she whispered to her husband: "Chun'er said all day long that Catherine is a great beauty, but I just thought she was an ordinary beauty. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Her voice was very low, but Xiaomei heard it and said with a smile: "Am I right?"

"That's right this time. Girls of your generation, do you know what beauty is? Modern ladies who know a little bit about dressing are all beauties..." Mrs. Mei said, looking at her brother-in-law Mei, who was looking at Jane Cheng intently. Ji Kang.

Mei Mengxian smiled and said nothing.

Among the others, Xiaomei was the youngest and the liveliest, so she had already praised her.

Jane came down and said sorry softly again and again.
