Lu Meirong was going crazy inside while the other people around her were praising Lijuan for her elegance. Even Lee Jianguo and Hua Mulan were admiring their daughter's sudden change.
On the other side Lijuan was thinking to herself about what excuse she should give to her parents about sudden change in her demeanor. Basically, this was not a sudden change, she had trained herself to meet the standards of Li Chen's dream girl character. She didn't want to embarrass Li Chen and Lu Meirong due to her ill manners. Yes, compared to Lu Meirong who got professional training to be a goddess actress, caried herself like a princess; wherever she went people will be in awe of her angel like beauty. Li Chen was not so happy to bring her along to any parties, he would always make excuses to take Lu Meirong with him. She felt very sad at that time. When she used to see photos of Lu Meirong and Li Chen together as a perfect couple in the entertainment news, she used to be jealous and envied Lu Meirong's beauty. She never knew how beautiful she herself was and no one made her feel like she was either, including her so called ex-boyfriend Li Chen. So, she painstakingly went through trainings to behave like a mature lady with proper etiquette. She did it without the knowledge of Lu Meirong and Li Chen. She wanted to give them a surprise. She did it just before their wedding, and when she wanted to showcase herself, she was kidnapped and what happened next was her death. Off Couse, in her previous life at that time she had no idea about those two people's real nature. If they knew, they would never let her learn any of these skills. They loved to see her making fool of herself Infront of everyone. What she learnt before her death was useful in this new life. She will use everything to her advantage.
Getting everyone's surprised look, Lijuan didn't react. She just naturally came and sat next to her father,
"Dad, what do you think about my outfit today? I took entire night to decide what I should wear today and finally decided to wear this dress you gifted me on new year. How is it dad?", Lijuan asked with expectant eyes. When speaking with her parents her natural child like appearance will come out automatically.
Lee Jianguo was happy and laughed out loud, he couldn't control himself. His daughter just now gave him a feeling of matured woman in her late 20's and suddenly turned into 14 years old child in a flash the moment she opened her mouth. He seems to have had a rollercoaster ride, early in the morning.
"My little princess, can't you stay in the character for few more minutes? You had to destroy your character right after giving a shock to everyone?", Lee Jianguo said laughingly.
Hua Mulan also felt speechless at her daughter's mischievous behavior.
Lijuan pouted her lips and said, "Why are you guys laughing. I am trying my best to keep my promises and show you, my changes. Instead of praising me you guys are pulling my leg. So bad!".
"Ah, no princess I am not making fun of you. I am just happy to see you like this with a brand-new personality. You look so refreshing and beautiful my dear", said Lee Jianguo happily.
Hua Mulan also smiled happily and commented, "Yes, darling you look good everyday but today you look like a little queen."
Lijuan was finally satisfied with Hua Mulan and Lee Jianguo's reaction.
When the family of three were having a happy conversation, the one person sitting silently on the seat opposite to Lijuan was also trying to calm her mind.
Lu Meirong was shouting inside her mind - 'thank goodness this fool didn't change much. She is still the same fool. Ah! What a relief. This fool was just acting out to be a different person overnight. She couldn't even maintain the act for 5 mins. What a useless thrash. She really panicked for a second thinking about the reason for the huge change in Lijuan's temperament. Now she felt better since it was all an act to impress her parents. As usually, this fool is coming up with new plans to get something from this couple. She can finally let this matter go. Anyway, after breakfast she will take this fool out with her and do some check on her recent changes. She can't let her guard down at this time and let this fool make a comeback. She should have control over this fool.'
Taking sometime to calm herself, Lu Meirong also got into her character and spoke sweetly to Lijuan, "An An, you are really looking beautiful today. We had a plan to go for shopping today! But it was in the noon, right? How come you got ready so early? Are you going somewhere else first and then planning to join me for the shopping?"
