Chapter 146: First Meeting With Ex-Mother-in-law And Sister-in-law (1)

Li Caiyi's mind automatically replayed the memory of her wedding day in her head. Honestly, although it wasn't a very joyous wedding, it was one of the best days in her life. She only stopped reminiscing after he heard Meng Renshu's words.

"I know it's silly, and there's not much I can remember about that dream. I only vaguely remember you wearing a white wedding dress."

Li Caiyi raised her head and saw Meng Renshu, who awkwardly put a hand behind her neck. For him, this probably was just one of the weird dreams he had, but for Li Caiyi, everything was real. 

What was the meaning of this? There was no way Meng Renshu would just randomly dream about the event that truly transpired in their previous life. Li Caiyi had an uneasy feeling about all this.

It did not seem Meng Renshu had a complete memory of their previous life based on his story. He said he couldn't remember most of it once he woke up, so did it mean his memories would gradually come back to him? Or was there another reason behind that?

She was having a hard enough time just from searching for Shen Qiang. She couldn't imagine what would happen if Meng Renshu suddenly gained his previous life's memory. Everything would be a massive mess!

But she couldn't freak out now. She forced herself to calm down and said, "I see. Thank you for telling me."

"Don't think too much of it. Even though the dream always ends in a bad way, I don't see it often lately."

"Yes, thank goodness. If you are having a hard time again, I advise you to seek professional help."

"Well, I actually have a better idea to ease my symptoms…." Meng Renshu's words trailed off, making her curious.

"Did you find another way?"

Meng Renshu stared at Li Caiyi deeply for a few seconds before smiling sheepishly. "No, please forget what I just said. I will try asking the expert about it."

"Good." Li Caiyi realized she was still clinging to his sleeve, so she quickly put down her hand. "Then shall we return inside? I can't keep the main character here for long."

He chuckled. "Yes, let's go."

"Xiaoyi, where have you been?" 

Li Caiyi was just returning from the terrace with Meng Renshu when Li Chunhua suddenly appeared in front of her. She puffed her cheeks as if she was dissatisfied about something. 

"I was on the terrace until a moment ago because it felt stuffy inside. I wanted to breathe some fresh air."

Li Chunhua stared at Li Caiyi and Meng Renshu alternately with a suspicious look. She really couldn't let her guard down for a second! She looked away for a few minutes, and her sister had gone with someone else behind her back.

She was about to barrage her sister with various questions when she suddenly recalled what that nosy boy had told her a few days ago. He said she should reflect on her mistake, or her sister would be completely fed up with her.

Li Chunhua clenched his jaw as she suppressed the irritation and put on an innocent smile instead. "Is that so? Good, then."

Li Caiyi frowned, looking at her sister's crooked smile. "Why are you looking for me? Did something happen?"

"I'm not looking for you, but Mom is! She said you still haven't paid Auntie your greeting, so you should go now."

Li Caiyi grimaced inwardly when she heard that. She was so distracted by her conversation with Meng Renshu on the terrace that she forgot there was still some hurdle she had to pass tonight.

She had to meet with her ex-mother-in-law. 

"Xiaoyi, do you want to greet my mother first? Or do you prefer to eat something first?" Meng Renshu asked her.

Li Caiyi felt her stomach would churn uncomfortably if she had something in her stomach when she talked to her mother, so she shook her head.

"No. It's not good to keep the older one waiting, so let's go greet Auntie first."

Meng Renshu quickly spotted his mother from far away and led the twins there. Li Caiyi's steps felt heavy as they slowly approached a woman wearing a red qipao dress and white furry scarf. 

One look, and anyone could tell that this woman wasn't an ordinary woman. She mingled with the crowds and chatted so naturally with so many people at once. Although she was already in her 40s, her face still glowed like women in their early 30s. 

Li Caiyi learned how to be a proper Madam Meng from this woman. From that experience, she knew that Qin Xiangjun was difficult to please. She'd better watch her tone and manner of speech when she talked to her. 

"Mother, I'm here." Meng Renshu came forward and greeted her first.

"You're finally here? That took you a long time," Qin Xiangjun said without anger in her voice. She sounded graceful, and with Meng Renshu standing beside her, they looked like a beautiful mother-son pair. It seemed Meng Renshu inherited her mother's pretty look in his veins.

"Mother, you already know them. They came to pay their greetings to you," Meng Renshu said as he glanced at the twins.

"Good evening, Auntie. You look stunning tonight!" Li Chunhua greeted her first, and Qin Xiangjun smiled upon hearing her compliment.

"Thank you, dear. You are also looking stunning yourself. Is that dress from the currently rising brand?"

"Yes! I saw this when I was shopping with Mom and immediately fell in love with it!"

Qin Xiangjun chuckled, "Xiaohua is always full of energy."

Li Caiyi finally saw her chance and gave her greetings while bowing her head slightly, "Good evening, Auntie."

Qin Xiangjun subtly scanned her from up to down. The last time she remembered, Li Caiyi was a dull and timid-looking girl, but she looked very radiant tonight. Her dress was one thing, but she also seemed less fidgety than usual. Furthermore, her way of giving greetings was impeccable. She was pleasantly surprised.

"How are you, Xiaoyi? You have grown prettier since the last time I saw you."

"I'm doing fine, Auntie. It's all thanks to Brother Renshu's care. But I still couldn't possibly compare with the real beauty in front of me."

"Oh my, what a sweet mouth you have. You are much more of a smooth-talker as well."

Li Caiyi wasn't this confident in her previous life, so Qin Xiangjun didn't like her very much. For her, Li Caiyi was unfit to be the Meng family's daughter-in-law; that was why she never had a good impression on her, no matter how hard she tried to please her.

Although their relationship took a worse turn after her marriage with Meng Renshu, Qin Xiangjun was usually pretty amiable. As a high-class socialite, she possessed excellent communication skills, so her charm attracted many people. It didn't matter if you were a man or woman, young or old.

Li Caiyi used to look up to her as the ideal woman she wanted to be, but her point of view changed after her marriage. Behind her gentle and friendly smile, Qin Xiangjun was a very impatient and demanding person. Her temper quickly flared up if she witnessed something she disliked. 

Li Caiyi just happened to be under that category, so her expression always turned uglier whenever she saw her.
