After saying this, Mu Chenyan went to the dressing room.
The dress was perfect and there was no need for alterations. She promptly took it back off.
Yuan Tian clearly did not think of this.
After hearing Mu Chenyan’s words, she began to feel awkward. She recalled the death of Uncle Mu Feng and of Aunt Yan Mei was still lying in the hospital. Slowly, she too began to inwardly blame Yuan Xuan.
Mu Chenyan came out and passed the gown to Ah Fu who lowered her head and put it away.
After this, the two sisters went to the little garden on the third floor.
Yuan Xuan had people moved a set of tea table there after seeing that Mu Chenyan loved to spend her time there.
Amid the flowers and plants was ten square meters of open space. A tea table and chair were placed there, with a bamboo-woven umbrella looming over them. Mu Chenyan was wearing a large white velvet sweater coat as she laid on the chair, looking just like a carefree cat.
Yuan Xuan’s dominance in the Yuan Family was unrivaled, so even though they were siblings, Yuan Tian had practically no chance of coming up this small building!
However, even Yuan Tian began to grow suspicious upon seeing Mu Chenyan, who such a stunning beauty, leisurely lying in the midst of the flowers and plants, . Yuan Xuan was clearly pampering Mu Chenyan, so how could there be bad blood between the two...
Nevertheless, this question could not be brought up as the relationship between them was extremely delicate.
While in front of Yuan Tian, Mu Chenyan carried no burden at all.
She poured a cup of tea for Yuan Tian before speaking up, “About the banquet in a few days time... do you think you’re going to attend?”
The reason why Mu Chenyan popped this question was that in the past Yuan Tian would often abstain from attending banquets and events.
The Yuan Family’s Old Mistress preferred males over females, and Yuan Tian’s carefree character did not please her as much as Yuan Ran’s gentleness. Add this to the fact that her parent, Yuan Tangshuo, was deeply immersed in the medical field, and it was evident that Yuan Tian’s upbringing was somewhat lacking for a noble.
Hence, Yuan Tian was unable to learn much of the mannerisms befitting of a lady of a noble family. This was partially the reason why she was envious of Mu Chenyan!
Chenyan, in regards to this area, could navigate these affairs with ease as she was fluent with words and excelled at handling social events. Her mind was quiet like a maiden at rest, but her words were agile like a fleeting hare!
When she was at peace, every single gesture of hers was exceptionally graceful.
In private, however, she was exuberant and buoyant, without showing any traces of her socialite background.
“I’m most likely unable to attend. You know, my education is basically taken care of by my dad, and he wants to bring me to a conference during the holiday. When it comes to work, those old geezers don’t really care whether or not it’s a national holiday...”
Yuan Tian did not go through any formal university education. In this regard, Mu Chenyan was rather envious of her!
She had been shadowing her father ever since she had completed her high school education.
Other students in medical school learned much theory but had less practical training. Yuan Tian, on the other hand, was trained purely through first-hand experience.
Various major and minor surgeries; theory and practical work; she had well-versed in them all!
She even often attended academic conferences of any scale in the country as well as overseas alongside her parents.
Hence, the skills which she had developed from this ‘elite guerilla squad’, were much more superior than those of regular surgeons who had simply studied for five or eight years.
The reason for this was that Yuan Tangshuo had hoped for her to gain a few years of practical training before sending her overseas to further her studies.
When Mu Chenyan heard that Yuan Tian would be leaving, she became somewhat downhearted.
The only person whom she could connect well within the Yuan Family would soon be unable to accompany her, and a rare sense of loneliness bubbled up in her heart.
Mu Chenyan had not experienced this kind of feeling in a long time. More often than not, she enjoyed solitude!
It seemed that her heart was really not as dead as she thought. Her heart had once been very vibrant, and if she had not gone through those two years of torment, then perhaps she would still be fine right now.
Yuan Tian noticed that Mu Chenyan was feeling a little dejected, so she comforted her in a soft voice. “Even though I can’t make it, Sister-in-law Wen Ya will be there for sure!”
