" You don't know?"
" I really don't know," I say " What is your name?"
" My name is Jin Yong,"
" Jin Yong? that is a good name,"
" So what about you?"
" Oh, I am Xu Xiang,"
" Can I call you sister Xu Xiang or sister?"
I looked at him. Am I gaining a new younger brother?
" You could call me any name you prefer,"
" Okay," he looked to the side " I need to leave before my older brother caught me,"
" Ah, I see,"
" I am leaving, continue eating,"
" Okay,"
He left.
He is so cute. Just looking at him reminds me of my younger brother. I wonder how my mother is doing, my father won't possibly hit her, will he? If Xu Liqin stays I will know that she will take care of her. Mom can have a peace of mind but I can't because of what my father might do to her. The main reason I decide to get married is not because of what Chen You says, it is because of what my father might do to my mother if I did not get married to him.
I wonder why my mother married a beast like him. He doesn't deserve my mother's love.
[The next day]
" My lady,"
" What do you want?" I said with sleepy eyes.
" It is me Xu Liqin, you need to get up now,"
I opened my eyes
" Xu Liqin,"
I was so happy to see her.
" My lady, you need to wake up, the concubine is here to greet you,"
" Eh," I sit up " Why?"
" That is the tradition, you are the main wife and it is right for a concubine to greet you,"
" How do you know?"
" Well, I talk to some maid about the tradition here that is what they told me,"
" Okay, tell her I am coming, let me clean up first,"
" Okay,"
She went outside.
" She is coming, please wait,"
" Okay,"
Xu Liqin leaves.
" I don't believe this nonsense she is making you wait just because she is the main wife,"
" Don't get angry, I am sure she is doing something inside,"
" Doing what?"
" Lin Qiu, that's enough right now," she raised her voice on her " Don't you know the walls can hear,"
" I am sorry, miss,"
-With Xu Xiang-
" Tell her to come in,"
" Okay,"
She went outside
" You can come in,"
They entered inside.
I thought that we can be friends, I never thought that meeting her will make us enemies.
