The Villain's Wife

The Villain’s Wife 535 A Quick Hug

The Peak, Hong Kong

After that day, Lily and Zhou Jingren had been very busy talking to some decorators.

Today, Lily chose to visit and see some people that Zhou Jingren hired from the orphanage as well as the new furniture. Since the moving date is already decided, Lily took this as her final visit before the move.

"I think we should change the paint in our office," Lily said to herself as she examined the rooms. "Add it to the list of the things that I want to do." She told Yang Mi, who was following her around. "Also... get me a list of the people living in this neighborhood." She added. Lily is not planning another evil scheme, alright?

She was curious about the identity of the people living in this kind of place. Moreover, she always believed that it is better to be always informed about matters like this.

"Madam," a meek voice interrupted them. She immediately turned to look at one of their new maids. It was a young woman, probably around nineteen years old. "A woman claiming to be Madam Yu is downstairs. She asked if she could see you."

Lily lifted an eyebrow as she eyed Yang Mi. No words were exchanged between the two as Yang Mi was already on her tablet looking for information about the Yu Family.

"Alright... it is hot outside. Bring her inside to the living room. Also... prepare some refreshments." She uttered and watched as the maid bowed and left without saying anything. "Yang Mi... please get me a list of everyone working in this place as well."

Lily understood that Zhou Jingren hired all these people to help them as well. However, she was not that comfortable having a stranger in her house. This was the reason why she refused to stay in Lilian’s mansion and chose to stay alone in her flat. Having people watch her every move seemed disturbing to her.

She is not really against having them. It’s just that she is not very comfortable with it. "I believe, you can get their files from Jichen." She added. She knew that Zhou Jingren must have already done a complete background check and was sure that Jichen have the files on him.

Yang Mi nodded at Lily’s words. She then started talking about the Yu Family "There are two Madam Yu in this household. The older one is Lu Xialu, she is the wife of the current patriarch. The next is Jiang Ruo she is the wife of the current CEO of Yu Corps and... the mother of CEO Yu Jing from Yu Entertainment." She eyed the smile on Lily’s face that have become even brighter.

"Alright... let’s go." She carefully walked downstairs towards the visitor waiting for them. "Good Morning." Lily greeted when she saw a middle-aged woman wearing an expensive Gucci Yellow Sundress. Lily remembered seeing this dress in one of fashion magazine this month. As someone who shops a lot, Lily is already very familiar with luxurious items like this. This however, did not affect the smile on Lily’s face.

"Good Morning!" the woman’s tone was cordial as she stood in front of Lily. "You must be the Madam Zhou. I am Jiang Ruo from the Yu household a few houses away. It is a pleasure to meet you." She pulled Lily into a quick hug.

"The pleasure is mine," Lily responded. "I have heard a lot about the Yu Family." She lied as she gestured for them to sit down.

The woman’s face had a quick change when she heard Lily’s words. But, she was quick to hide it. Of course, it was too late as Lily already saw the change in her expression. Lily thought that this must be because of her son’s scandal. "Well... we are an old Family." Madam Yu laughed awkwardly before she changed the topic. "I am here to give you this." She handed Lily a box with a small golden envelope on the top.

"I just realized that the day that you are scheduled to move is also my father-in-law’s birthday. So I can’t come in here to welcome you and your husband into the new neighborhood." Jiang Ruo said, the smile on her face didn’t falter. "Because of this, I decided to come in here to give you some auspicious fruits and cookies that I personally baked."

"This..." Lily feigned surprise. "Thank you. I didn’t know that this place would be this welcoming."

"Oh... please... we are new neighbors. Aside from this, the Golden Envelop is also an invitation for my Father in Law’s birthday. We know that moving houses is very tiresome. However, we would appreciate if you attend the birthday party and meet the entire neighborhood and some prominent businessman."

"That is wonderful." Lily smiled. "I would love to tell my husband about this matter."

"Good. Now... I know that you are busy with furniture and decoration. So I won’t stay for too long."

"Aren’t you going to have some refreshments at least? It is a very hot day." Lily said.

"Oh no! I have some other important business to attend to. I apologize for the inconvenience. We are also busy preparing for the birthday party. But I would love to have some tea with you after all this... craziness." She gave a soft laugh.

"Then... I will walk you out— "

"Oh, please... it’s alright. You don’t have to go outside and expose your skin in this heat."

"Alright then..." Lily shifted her gaze to one of the servants standing a few feet away from them. "Please walk Madam Yu out." The maid nodded and immediately accompanied the older woman out.

"She seemed nervous," Lily commented softly as she eyed the woman’s disappearing back. "Inviting us two days before the event and expecting us to show to meet everyone... hmmm..."

"President, this woman used to be an actress before she got married to the Eldest son of The Yu Family. However, despite her husband being the eldest son, the old man seemed to be very logical and does not favor him. He treats his three sons equally and has hinted that he will leave the company to the most capable person in the family."

"So... this made everyone in the Yu Family competitive?" Lily asked. "I see..." She smiled.
