Chapter 117: 117

Although the engagement had not yet been finalized, the relationship between the Cheng family and the An family was instantly brought much closer.

 

On Saturday evening, Cheng Lin invited An Mu to go shopping with her the next day.

 

An Mu naturally did not refuse.

 

In order to save her son's face, An My got up early in the morning and started to prepare. She carefully put on her make-up, fixed her hair, and finally picked out a dark blue dress and a coat.

 

She looked worlds apart from the way she looked a few months ago when she wore the plainest of clothes, had a slightly waxy face with no skin care products, and had her hair simply tied behind her head.

 

But there was still a gap from a lady from a large family that has always lived a very sophisticated life, not only taking care of herself but also having help to make her life more sophisticated.

 

However, Cheng Lin took An Mu’s situation into account. She put on light make-up and wore a simple suit. She looked very harmonious standing with An Mu.

 

They had never met before, and their first meeting was over the engagement of their children, so shopping together was actually a bit awkward.

 

Fortunately, they were of similar age, and Cheng Lin had been deliberately accommodating to An Mu, taking the initiative to find suitable topics of conversation. In addition, they were shopping in shops that most women are interested in, so the atmosphere became surprisingly harmonious.

 

They had bought a lot of things after a long morning of shopping. It was almost time to eat, so Cheng Lin took the initiative to propose, "I know a good restaurant nearby where the food is quite good and the price is very fair. Should we go and try it?"

 

After spending the morning together, An Mu could feel that Cheng Yi's mother had been taking the initiative to accommodate her feelings, which made her feel touched and relaxed at the same time.

 

She was worried about disgracing An Yan because of her status and bearing, but it seemed that she had worried too much.

 

However, this was enough to show that the Cheng family valued this marriage, otherwise, they would not have been so accommodating and polite to her.

 

"OK," An Mu said with a smile and a nod.

 

Cheng Lin did not book a private room in order not to make An Mu feel constrained, but took her to a window seat in the hall.

 

This spot was close to the corner and there were no other customers around, so it was quite secluded. One could see the pedestrians coming and going outside through the window, so it was indeed a good choice in consideration for An Mu.

 

But that was on the premise that no one deliberately came over to pick a fight.They sat down, and

 

Cheng Lin took the menu from the waiter. She was about to discuss with An Mu what to order when she saw a man in a suit suddenly walk over.

 

The man walked straight up to An Mu and said, in half surprise and half amazement, "Minmin, you are also eating at this restaurant? What a coincidence! "

 

An Mu’s face had a smile, but it instantly disappeared when she heard the man’s voice, and her face became visibly ugly.

 

She subconsciously glanced at Cheng Lin, and then said, in a cold voice, "Sorry, you've got the wrong person."

 

Cheng Lin did not miss her glance Mu, but this was the other party's private matter. She only slightly turned her head to the side to pour herself a glass of water and had no intention of intervening. 

 

The man had an obvious smile, but his face froze when he heard this: "Minmin, are you joking with me? We met just yesterday. How could you forget so quickly? "

 

 An Mu did not expect to meet Li Zongyun. She would not have been so flustered and scared if she was alone, but Cheng Yi's mother was sitting across from her. She did not want this man to affect the Cheng family's opinion of her and Yan Yan.

 

So her first reaction was to pretend that she didn't know Li Zongyun.

 

But Li Zongyun did not intend to let her off easily.

 

Li Zongyun's presence here was obviously deliberate.

 

Li Zongyun had long investigated their current place of residence in order to please An Mu and get her forgiveness as well as An Yan’s acknowledgement as soon as possible.

 

Although he failed and had a very unpleasant experience yesterday, Li Zongyun did not give up. He waited near An Mu’s house early this morning with the intention of creating a chance encounter.

 

It would obviously be even better if he could meet An Yan and interact with him during the chance encounter.

 

But it didn't work out the way he expected. An Mu did go out, but with another woman about her age.

 

Li Zongyun did not recognise who this woman was, but he figured she was either rich or wealthy, considering that most people who could live in this kind of environment were like that.

 

In order not to miss any opportunity, he immediately took a photo and sent it to Zhu Jian, and soon got an answer that surprised him extraordinarily.

 

This woman was actually Madam Cheng of the Cheng family! The number one mecha family that has produced several military marshals!

 Li Zongyun couldn't help but be puzzled after his excitement had worn off.

 

How could An Mu hang out with Madam Cheng? In addition, the two seemed to be on good terms.

 

Li Zongyun could not figure out the answer to this question, but this did not affect his next plan.

 

His intention was just to brush up his presence in front of An Mu and meet his son in passing. How could he not seize such a windfall?

 

Even Zhu Jian urged him again and again to make sure he didn't miss this rare opportunity to brush up on his presence in front of Madam Cheng no matter what.

 

So for the rest of the morning, Li Zongyun was looking for the right moment to appear in front of Madam Cheng.

 

He finally chose to appear while the two of them were having lunch.

 

Li Zongyun had a good plan. He thought that even if An Mu had some friendship with Madam Cheng, she must be pleasing and flattering her for her favor.

 

In order not to appear rude in front of Madam Cheng, she would not directly reject him like she did before, nor would she dare to mention her relationship with him.

 

In this way, Li Zongyun could pretend to be familiar with An Mu and get the opportunity to have lunch with Madam Cheng.

 

In fact, it was indeed impossible for An Mu to say the truth about her relationship with Li Zongyun in front of Cheng Lin, but she would never allow this man to have lunch with them.

 

For one thing, she was already completely fed up with this man and didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

 

Secondly, who knew if this man would say something during the meal that he shouldn't?

 

The only difficulty was figuring out how to get rid of this man without making their relationship clear.

 

An Mu was anxious for a moment, but afraid that Cheng Lin would figure it out, she dared not delay any longer. She said, in an even colder tone, "Sorry, you have really mistaken me for someone else. I don't know you at all. Can you please leave? "

 

Li Zongyun's face couldn't help but look a little ugly. He didn't want to have a complete standoff with An Mu just yet, so he naturally wouldn't do anything to provoke the relationship.

 

However, he was also unwilling to miss such a rare opportunity. He was thinking of how to make An Min curb her attitude, when he heard Madam Cheng suddenly speak up, "This gentleman, since Mrs An has indicated that she doesn't know you, can you please leave immediately and stop disturbing our meal?" Cheng Lin's

 

tone was not harsh and was even considered polite, but it made Li Zongyun unconsciously lower his posture to the lowest level.

 

He replied in a flattering tone, "Madam, you misunderstand, Minmin and I are actually..."

 

"I don't know you at all. Please leave immediately!" An Mu paled and shouted out in a low whisper.

 

She would never allow Li Zongyun to speak about their relationship in front of Cheng Yi's mother.

 

Li Zongyun's face turned ugly, but before he could speak again, Cheng Lin had already beckoned the waiter, "Please ask this gentleman who is disturbing our meal to leave."

 

The waiter respectfully replied, "Yes," then turned to Li Zongyun, "This gentleman, would you please not disturb our guests' meal?"

 

Even if Li Zongyun was half-exasperated, he did not dare lose his temper at this moment since Madam Cheng had called the waiter herself.

 

“Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb your meal, I just..." Li Zongyun tried to explain, but stopped as he saw that Madam Cheng looked displeased. "I will leave now. I hope that you enjoy your meal."

 

He wanted to say something to An Mu, but finally turned around after a moment’s hesitation and left without saying anything.

 

 Cheng Lin didn't say anything after Li Zhongyun left, and she looked natural as she discussed with An Mu what dishes to start with.

 

But An Mu’s mind was in such turmoil that she didn't have the heart to think about what to eat at the moment, she ordered a few dishes randomly.

 

As Cheng Lin had said earlier, the dishes were really good, but An Mu ate her meal as if she was chewing wax, and she couldn't really taste anything.

 

 Cheng Lin kept an eye on An Mu’s condition even though she didn’t show any difference. She noticed that An Mu looked worried and did not eat anything before she put down her chopsticks. Cheng Lin did not want to force her, so she also put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm done eating."

 

An Mu reluctantly smiled and said, "Me too."

 

Cheng Lin beckoned the waiter and offered to settle the bill, but was stopped by An Mu, "It's better for me to do it."

 

An Mu had already planned to treat Cheng Yi’s mother, and she naturally couldn't let her pay for it after Li Zhongyun’s drama.

 

 An Mu insisted, so Cheng Lin didn't say anything more.
