Chapter 270 - 270: Yue The Maid

Time flowed fast like the stream of water and two days soon passed. Xiao Yun woke up on the particularly day earlier before the sun raises and dolled herself by the evening as the party was held in late evening. Unlike the other ladies who often prepared themself before the party for hours with many maids, Xiao Yun only needed the help of her two maids. After dressing herself in the white dress Wang Li Lei ordered personally for her what came next was her makeup process which she did alone. Yue knocked on the door. "Come in." receiving a word from Xiao Yun, Yue who had been assigned to a different work came inside. Observing at the maids who were choosing the hairstyle for Xiao Yun and went toward her side. "Is there anything we I could help my lady?"

Xiao Yun swipe her lower lips and nodded her head. "Can you take the present that I bought last time? The accessories." Yue bowed at her words and left. Soon when she came back, Xiao Yun was already finished with her make up and attended with the maids to help fixing her hairstyle.

"Here, my lady." She gave the box to Xiao Yun. Opening the dark blue box, Xiao Yun peek a look at the jade bracelet and a smile formed at her lips. She didn't expect for Wang Grandparents to like her present the most but she hope it could be a little step to form their relationship.

"Then my lady I will excuse myself to fetch your shoes for a moment," Yue received a nod from Xiao Yun and left busily again from her room.

"My lady." The voice came from one of the maids who stood beside her coworker who were currently curling the ends of her hair after a little straightening. "What is it?" She asked gently.

"I gathered these necklaces that suit your attire my lady but I still think it is a little too simple." The maid offered a look at a few sparkling accessories for her neck. As the white gown she wore started from the plates of her shoulder, revealing her white skin of her neck with only the crescent moon necklace her neck look a little too vacant. Xiao Yun placed her finger on the necklace. When it was true that it looked vacant, Chuan Huan Jing's golden embroidery around her dress was enough to make up for the lack of accessories. "Thank you but this one is enough." The maid looked a little unsatisfied by her answer but didn't step out of her line. Seeing her expression Xiao Yun spoke. "Instead can you take another accessory?"

"What kind, my lady?" The maid's ears perked, making Xiao Yun to laugh at her open book expression.

Xiao Yun hummed looking at her arms she replied. "Bracelets or rings." She waited for the maid to go but the girl found the maid still standing still at her spot. "What's wrong?"

"My lady, I can bring the bracelet but about the ring, I think you would not need it." Xiao Yun lifted her brows at her words. Asking why in her mind but didn't continued. "Then bracelets would do fine." At her words the maid trotted away and went to fetch the bracelets from the accessories box. /

At late evening, Xiao Yun finished her makeups. Her hairstyle was done perfectly by the maid who had left her alone after the long hours. Hazing at her hairstyle it made her wonder whether perhaps the maids in her house have more skills than they look. From both sides of her head, a few strands of hair was pinned loosely to above her ears, creating a smooth curl strands by the white golden flower hairpins. Her hair was curled very loosely, looking splendidly straight before curling when it reached above her chest. Thinking that the party would took a very long time, she chose a shorter white high heels. Looking at how white her gown was, it was almost as if she was going to get married today.

Just as she added a little fix to her makeup, she heard a swift knock from the door. Thinking it was not Yue, she opened the door to see Jang Hyun standing across the door. "My lady, I am here to see whether you need a help." He smiled. "But it seems you have finished with your makeup."

"Yes the maids helped me before they're excellent." She praised.

"Thank you for the praise." He returned.

"Is Li Lei done with his attire?" She questioned and saw him nodding. "Yes, my lady the master is waiting at the drawing room."

"We should go then." Xiao Yun said and had the secretary ushering her to the room. On their way to Wang Li Lei, Xiao Yun Asked. "Do you receive any news yet from Tian Yi?" Being one of her two personally bodyguards, Tian Yi was a close existence to her.

"Yes, he's been living very well. Although he studied for a day longer than the the expected date, he have took the Korean Language very well." The Secretary who had been exchanging private message with Tian Yu through their personal intel informed the truth. "He also said that in Korea every food seems to be red but very fulfilling." He added.

Xiao Yun giggled at his reports. Tian Yi should have been sending private informations of what he found in Choi Group yet he never forgot to take a note of the dishes he ate every time. If Tian Yi still could exchange informations smoothly then the Choi Group members must hadn't found out his identity which was good. In a place where a life disappeared was a normal occurrence she had been worried of Tian Yi's safety. Hearing the good news, Xiao Yun exhaled a relieved sigh.

"Master, the lady has come." Jang Hyun knocked on the door and turned the knob, letting Xiao Yun to enter before her. Wang Li Lei who was seated on the couch with his dark navy suit had half side of his hair curled above his forehead while the rest was cleanly swept to the back of his head enhanced his prominent jawline. Fixing his the knot on his necktie, he turned and beamed a soft smile over his face. "You're ready?"

"Mhm." Xiao Yun muttered her eyes could still not believe the person in front of her was a human due to his handsomeness. "I'm done."

Likewise, Wang Li Lei can not tear his eyes away from Xiao Yun. He had known well since long ago of how beautiful his fiancée was. Adorned in the white gown she was almost like an angel without wings. Her delicate faces smoothened as she smiled. No matter what other may say, to him she was perfect and there was no other women who could compare to her. "We should go then," his steps brought him closer to her. Wrapping his hand on her waist he gave a kiss on her temple daintily and they both left the house.

Yue bowed her back, seeing the lady and the master of the house had left with the secretary who also took the position of the housekeeper in the house her eyes languidly swept over the car that soon disappeared as it passed the wide silver gate.

"Ms. Yue, where should we place the Hydrangea flowers?" A maid asked her as she was the second in command after Jang Hyun in place of taking the chores around the house.

"The master asked for the Hydrangea flowers to decorate the house as celebration today." She started, pointing her hand at the few place as pointers to the maid. "You should place the flower in places that are visible. Since it is a celebration make sure the Hydrangea flowers stood out around the house, preferably the halls and the lady's and the master's room."

"I understand, please excuse me." The maid said and Yue took off from her place. Walking to the hallway with wide glass walls which was on the opposite path to the garden she strolled her path to the maid's quarter. Being Xiao Yun's personal maid she acquired her own room unlike the other maids who shared their stations with their roommates. Entering she turned her doorknob and make sure to secure the room with the lock. Taking another check to the door, she went to the vanity table and gave a long tired sigh. Placing her hand over her temple she grabbed her hair and pulled the wig that she had been wearing. "This is getting a little tiring." Her womanly voice turned deep like those of a man. "I should have come here as a man, but Master Tian would find out if I do that."

Seeing the red color of his lips which thickened at the corner, he swiped his mouth, having the red lipstick smeared the corner of his lips a little when he heard a knock. "Ms. Yue, it is about the window on the garden."

"Can't they leave me alone for a sec? Damn master Tian should cry when he sees me in this state later!" He cursed beneath his breath and spoke in a womanly voice. "Please wait for a moment I'm changing." The maid murmured her reply and waited until he came back. "Where did you say?"

"The garden." The maid trailed when she spot the little red smear of Yue's lipstick but couldn't say anything as the person already left. The maid dwelled in her place and followed his steps to the garden.
