In the residence of the Chi family.
Nanny Liu was preparing to throw away the garbage.
Just as she opened the door, she saw Chi Enen pacing outside. After recovering from her shock, she dropped the garbage in her hands and hurried forward. “Young Miss?”
“Nanny Liu.” Chi Enen did not expect anyone to leave the house this hour. She widened her eyes in surprise.
Nanny Liu sighed and tears welled up in her eyes. “It’s me. It’s me. Young Miss, you have returned from abroad? When did you come back? Why didn’t you tell us?”
“I just came back recently.” At the thought of the objective of her visit today, she bit her lower lips and asked, “Nanny Liu, is dad at home?”
“CEO Chi is at home.” Auntie Liu paused, and then added, “Madam and second young miss are also at home.”
Gu Qiaomei and Chi Ya were also at home?
Chi Enen pursed the corners of her lips and started walking into the house. “I’m looking for dad to talk about something. I’ll go in first.”
“Okay.” Nanny Liu was overjoyed. She cast a motherly and smiley glance at her before picking up the garbage again. “I’m going marketing. Young miss, stay behind for lunch today. I’ll cook your favorite braised duck with beer.”
“I…”
Before Chi Enen could finish her words, Nanny Liu happily interrupted, “It’s decided then. Young miss, go in first. Aren’t you looking for CEO Chi to talk about things? I’m going to throw away the garbage and then head to the market.”
After finishing her words, she left emotionally.
Chi Enen called out to her a few times but she did not hear her.
At the sight of her walking further and further away, Chi Enen had no choice but to enter the house first.
The Chi residence was situated in a villa estate. Every household in this estate had a standalone villa with a courtyard. It was the beginning of spring now and begonia flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom, decorating the villa like a castle in a fairytale.
However, Chi Enen knew that this castle did not have anything to do with her.
She took a deep breath, pushed opened the door, and entered the house.
She had been away for five years. Yet, the decoration in the living room looked exactly the same as when she left. It was elegant and luxurious. A graceful and stylish woman was sitting and reading on the sofa. At the sight of Chi Enen walking in, her exquisite brows and eyes dimmed. She could not hide the hatred and disgust in them.
Chi Enen walked to her and greeted her politely, “Auntie Mei.”
The young woman’s voice was crisp and fine. Yet, Gu Qiaomei’s glabella throbbed violently!
No wife would favor the illegitimate daughter of her husband. It was no exception for her. However, many years ago, she had already chosen to forgive her husband. Hence, she had to be a generous and virtuous stepmother.
Gu Qiaomei forcefully subdued her revulsion and asked coldly, “Why did you come back?”
Hadn’t she already gone abroad? Why did she come back again?
Chi Enen knew that Gu Qiaomei disliked her. She also knew that this such dislike could never be overcome. Hence, she had never thought of pleasing Gu Qiaomei. She stood there quietly. “I’m looking for dad to talk to him about something. I’ll leave after I meet him.”
Gu Qiaomei’s expression eased a little. She lifted her eyes and looked upstairs. “Your dad is on the second floor.”
“Thank you Auntie Mei.” Chi Enen heaved a sigh of relief and ascended the stairs.
Just as she reached the door of the study room and wanted to knock on it, she heard Chi Ya’s whiny voice coming from the room.
“Dad, I want to be with Brother Chengyan.”
Chengyan…
Chi Enen could not help but pause her movement. That man’s gentle side view appeared in her mind. For some unknown reason, her heart was aching.
“Su Chengyan?” A stern and authoritative voice, revealing strong feelings of unhappiness, could be heard. “No! Su Chengyan is your elder sister’s fiancé.”
Chi Ya was seemingly displeased. “What fiancé? It’s just a joke from uncle and auntie when we were young. Dad, how can you take it seriously?”
“Dad, can you let me be with Brother Chengyan, please?”
