Visiting Su Mansion
As System sensed Lin Qing's hostile indications, it remained quiet once more. Subsequent days, Lin Qing went to work and returned home to attempt learning the food that Su Haoyu preferred. Each time she entered the kitchen, it would turn into a chaotic mess, but the food would always turn out well in the end, only downside was that she was overly messy when cooking .
Eventually, it was the day she would visit Su Mansion.
Today was Saturday, but Lin Qing couldn't indulge in the luxury of sleeping in. Her day was already packed with plans, including arrangements for dinner later in the evening. As the clock struck 7:00 am, her alarm jolted her from slumber, prompting her to groggily reach over and silence its persistent beeping. Rubbing the remnants of sleep from her eyes, she roused herself from the comfort of her bed and made her way to the bathroom to begin her morning routine.
After tending to some paperwork at the company, she departed for the beauty center, eager to indulge in some well-deserved skincare and a relaxing massage. She had previously scheduled a facial treatment, and the prospect of this pampering session had left her eagerly anticipating the appointment all week. The beauty center buzzed with activity as women chatted excitedly about their own skincare regimens, creating an atmosphere filled with lively energy.
Escorted by a friendly receptionist, Lin Qing was led to a private room. The dim lighting and the soothing scent of lavender immediately enveloped her, setting a tranquil tone. The aesthetician, adorned with a warm smile, arrived promptly to begin the treatment.
For the following hour, Lin Qing reclined on the table, surrendering herself to the expert care of the aesthetician. Gentle strokes and the application of nourishing creams and serums worked to revitalize and hydrate her skin, inducing a sense of deep relaxation. With her eyes closed, she embraced the serene stillness that surrounded her, allowing herself to be carried away by the experience.
Emerging from the beauty center, Lin Qing felt rejuvenated and invigorated, the effects of the treatment evident in her refreshed countenance. Clad in her chosen attire, she entered her sleek black Maybach and set off for a luxurious pastry shop.
Upon her arrival at Su Mansion, Lin Qing gracefully emerged from her car, exuding an air of confidence and elegance. The click of her heels reverberated against the marble floor, announcing her arrival. Her light blue silk dress, adorned with pleats, lent her a fresh yet sophisticated appearance. Those familiar with fashion would recognize the limited edition Prada creation she wore, the very same dress Keira Knightley had worn a week ago in a gala.
Upon entering the hallway, Lin Qing presented her gifts to the chief butler of the Su family. The elders of the Su family warmly welcomed her.
"Good evening, Grandma Su, Grandpa Su, I've brought these gifts. I hope you don't despise them," she said.
"Little Lin has a heart. Come in, come in, let me have a good look at you. You seem more beautiful every day," Old Madam Su remarked, grasping Lin Qing's hand and patting it.
"Dinner isn't ready yet. Let's sit and have some tea. It's a blend from Korea, they say it's excellent for the skin," Old Madam Su suggested.
Lin Qing smiled obediently and followed her into the garden. The garden was expansive and filled with lavenders, resembling a lavender field.
As they settled outside, Old Madam Su sneakily glanced at the door, formulating a plan.
Today, she had called Su Haoyu, claiming she didn't feel well. After seeing that she was fine, he had planned to leave, but Madam Su insisted that he was unfilial for not even visiting her or spending time, so he had no choice but relent so he ended up staying until dinner.
Old Madam Su instructed the butler to invite him to the garden without alerting Su Haoyu to Lin Qing's arrival.
As Su Haoyu entered the garden, his gaze immediately fell upon Lin Qing. His expression twisted with anger as he thought to himself, "Why is my grandmother meddling in my personal life? I can handle my own romantic affairs!" He was filled with frustration, but Lin Qing's presence was too captivating to ignore, and he reluctantly took a seat beside her. Despite his initial irritation, he couldn't help but shoot glares towards his grandmother.
Lin Qing noticed his behavior and found it amusing. She decided to tease him a little, saying, "How have you been, Senior Yu?" Su Haoyu was surprised by her intimate addressing but still managed to respond in a normal tone, "I'm fine."
Now it was his grandmother's turn to send glares. "This brat has no tact at all. He will push Qing Qing away if he acts like a wall!" she thought.
Lin Qing didn't mind his behavior at all. In fact, she found it interesting and wanted to tease him more.
But she couldn't show her true colors in front of elders. So she put her hand in front of her mouth and feigned shyness again.
"No, no, Grandmother Su, Senior Yu isn't like that at all. He is very successful and smart. I really admire Senior Yu." The compliments and half confession made Su Haoyu dizzy; he was dumbfounded.
Lin Qing continued, "I heard that Senior Yu was one of the creators of 'Uprising in Hell Zone.' It is a very liked and appreciated game, with a lot of success and fans. He must be good and diligent at his work."
Grandmother Su was swayed by her compliments to her grandson. "It is just a game. I heard that you started working in your father's company."
Lin Qing smiled. "Yes, I wanted to help him and my brother lessen their burdens."
Grandfather Su was also delighted with this potential future granddaughter-in-law. "Little Lin is obedient and filial. You are working and helping your father. They must be really proud of you. I remember you were also good at painting. You are truly a gem in this generation."
Lin Qing obediently put her head down as if she was embarrassed by the compliments. "It's nothing. As long as I can help my family, it's what I should do. I don't deserve such compliments."
Old Madam Su patted her hand. "Good child, good child." She signaled to an old maid, and the maid brought a box with golden dragon carvings. She opened the box, revealing a luxurious carved jade bracelet with golden clips. "This is a little gift from me I hope you don't dislike it"
