CHAPTER 491

"Oh! Someone is on cloud nine."

Jiang Meilin who had almost returned from her dream land jumped in shock at the sudden voice. She sighed when she saw who it is.

"Oh my goodness, Mingyu. You scared be there," Jiang Meilin said as she patted her chest in hopes of calming her fast beating heart.

Mrs Li giggled before approaching Jiang Meilin and hooking her arm around hers(Jiang Meilin). "So, tell me dear in-law. What got you into la-la land?"

"I-It's nothing, Mingyu. I was not in any la-la whatever you just called it," Jiang Meilin tried to brush her off but she could not.

This was Mrs Li by her side. If she wants to get something, she strive very hard to get it. And that is what is happening here.

"Oh, Mei. Do not lie to me. I saw you... I saw everything right from the moment you entered that door," Mrs Li said.

Jiang Meilin's eyes widened from the revelation. She then looked away and closed her eyes as she was scolding herself. How could she have been off guard when reminiscing about her outing with Zhao Fu?

'How would I explain to Mrs Li now? She already saw everything. Even from the moment I touched my lips... Oh God.'

Jiang Meilin sighed in distress. When she looked back at Mrs Li, the woman was eagerly waiting with sparks in her eyes.

"You know you can tell me anything, right? If it is something that will make you happy, I want to know so that I can participate in it," Mrs Li sincerely told her.

Jiang Meilin pursed her lips as she gazed at the woman who had become very closed or rather attached to her since the relationship of their children.

Indeed, Mrs Li has made sure to do things that would make Jiang Meilin, her in-law happy. She had known a little of the woman's past and knew that life was bit easy for her.

And that was why she wanted her to enjoy those things she could not during those years of her divorce. To experience real sisterhood, friendship and family.

"Sigh... Let's go to my to first."

<<In Jiang Meilin's room>>

Both ladies were now sitting in the bed facing each other. Mrs Lk was patiently waiting for Jiang Meilin to open up to her while the latter was thinking of where and when to begin.

"I don't really know where to start but... Mingyu, do you to no I can still be in a relationship at this my age?" Jiang Meilin asked with her head slight shrinking into her shoulders.

Mrs Li was taken aback by the question Jiang Meilin asked her. She had to rethink those words a few number of times as her eyes blinked.

"Relationship at your age? Why do you ask such?" She answered the question with a question.

Jiang Meilin sighed and fell backwards in the bed. Her body bounced a bit in the soft bed. "Mingyu, please just answer my question with. I am still in a little bit if uncertainty."

"Ah! My bad, I'm sorry. Ahem! Well, Meilin. I think your question is silly," Mrs Li folded her arms and said a with serious expression.

"...."

? "How is that supposed to help me, Mingyu? You are making me feel stupid," Jiang Meilin groaned in frustration.

"Well, then stupid you shall be," Mrs Li shrugged before adjusting properly on the bed. "Look, Meilin. Aside from the fact that you are in your late forties, you still have that youthful beauty. So, of course you can be in a relationship. Who dares to criticise you?"

Covering her eyes with her hands, Jiang Meilin threw another question of doubt. "Are you sure? I told him that we are too old for a relationship."

"Wooo! So there is already a him, huh? Who is it? Is he someone I might know? Long time friend of yours or you met at the wedding?" Mrs Li dropped questions upon questions on Jiang Meilin.

"Mingyu, please focus in the important part."

"Fine. I am very sure that you and even Chenguang can be in a relationship? I and Suyin have already marked put a few single men from the wedding that the both of you can date," Mrs Li revealed.

"What?!" Jiang Meilin abruptly sat up. "You guys were already planning to set us up with men?"

"Uh-huh. We were or rather we are... still hoping to see those romantic sparks in the both of your eyes. Especially you, Meilin. We have seen Chenguang's spark before but never you. So..." Mrs Li shrugged and left the remaining words unsaid as Jiang Meilin could catch on.

"There is no need for that now. He has already confessed and I feel the same. I was just thinking that talking to a fellow woman would help me Jiang Meilin said.

"Well, then that is great news, is it not?" Mrs Li clapped her hands.

"I guess it is."

"So tell me, who is the lucky man that has brought our Meilin's heart out of isolation and did he do it?" Mrs Li asked.

Jiang Meilin cringed at those words. Was her heart really on isolation? Sigh...

"Well, he is a long time friend and we were in a little relationship when we're were in our teens. But Bai Guiren came along and yada yada yada... I also, met him a long while before the wedding and he has been coming to see me at my shop everyday," Jiang Meilin began to explain.

She even told Mrs Li that Zhao Fu had made his intentions known since the day they met again.

"Aww! He is so persistent and in love. That is so sweet," Mrs Li commented.

"I thought it was sweet too. Especially when he started bringing my favourite flowers and lunch. Then, he came for the wedding and today he took me out and we had lunch and then dinner. After he told me his feelings."
