Chapter 378 - 379: She’s Not Here-I

When everything was finally sorted out, it was late in the morning. Wang Li Lei and her stepped out from the house at the same time with each having their own destination. Qingge managed to bring Wang Shi Ning with her, as if she knows that couple needs their own time to say goodbyes to each other and Wang Li Lei was thankful for his elder cousin's help.

"I'll see you soon." she kissed his lips and saw his necktie to fix them. "Don't get hurt."

"I wouldn't." Wang Li Lei rubbed her cheeks, his fingers stayed to stroke under her eyelid. "I don't want to see you cry."

Xiao Yun entered the car where Hi Gu Yan as their driver and Tian Shi taking safe seat on the passenger seat beside the driver and on his hand was cookies present that he gobbled fast when the two women entered and Xiao Yun not long after.

"You two are very suitable for each other." Qingge said, sitting in the middle while Xiao Yun was in the right, her voice not only reach Xiao Yun's ears but Wang Shi Ning too who had said nothing but seemed to agree who nodded at the corner of Xiao Yun's eyes. "Grandmother and grandfather are strict but they have their own reason you see." 

Curious, Xiao Yun lifted her brows, "Reasons?" For what? Disagreeing to their engagement and forcing Wang Li Lei to be in a relationship with Lin Chang Lu? Seeing Qingge, it seems that was what she was talking of. 

"It was an old story. Not that I agree or support them but I could understand them." replied Qingge, "Long before grandfather fell for a simple woman. I remember they say the woman to be a very kind and the gentlest person one could ever meet until the truth came out that all the time, the woman was just using grandpa for his wealth which ended up very badly for Wang Family. You could say that it's a traumatic event for him thus why he didn't agree with uncle's, Li Lei's father to marry with aunty because he didn't want to repeat the past." she explained, her eyes looking at the window shifted at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun could see how it became a traumatic event for Wang Yongyi. The elder man was a perfectionist, loosing his wealth must have pushed him to the bottom of the pit. However, she couldn't support this idea. "But not everyone is like that. Not everyone who is born from a bad family could turn out to be a bad person, they could be good and vise versa. Before all of that, I wish they could have given a chance." not only to her but Wang Li Lei's parents and perhaps they could avoid all the heartache she could imagine how they would go through.

"Which is why I didn't agree too. I also think it was foolish to judge people by their status. However, this isn't the first time Xiao Yun. Before grandpa, great grandpa and great grandmother and many other from Wang Family they also faces the same problem." 

"Do you mean meeting people like the woman Wang Grandfather met?" asked Xiao Yun and Qingge replied by a nod of her head. 

"You may not believe it but many of our family was like that before." she replied after all, she could be count as a victim too. "After grandpa heard about it, he had least trust to people he deemed not worthy. It's harsh and partial but he thought it was to protect the family."

Xiao Yun took the informations in silence, feeling sympathy to the Wang Family and from the story, she could see clear the reason why Wang Yongyi disapprove their engagement very much.

Qingge shifted her hand, warmly grasp Xiao Yun's hand under hers to gather her eyes at her. "But I've seen with my own eyes how you are different, how aunty is different from the others. Grandfather and grandmother too, they've seen how you are not the same as the people they've seen before. Their prejudice against you will slowly fade."

Xiao Yun could not help but smile in glee at the woman's kind words.

Wang Shi Ning who had been quiet then pulled her phone and say, "Grandpa and grandma said they will arrive soon!" 

Xiao Yun shifted her gaze to Wang Shi Ning. She didn't heard it wrong didn't she? Wang Yongyi and Wang Yan Zhi would be coming to the fashion show? The fashion show is well known which make sense that they would arrive perhaps not in particular to see her but she would be there and they would be watching her and Lin Chang Lu.

The ride to the fashion show come to end when they arrive at the fashion show. Xiao Yun parted with Wang Shi Ning and Qingge as she had to move to the backstage when the other two left to the main hall. Reaching to the back stage, Xiao Yun was a man standing with the uniform coming toward her when he saw her face, "Miss Yu from Azure company?" the man asked for her confirmation. As she had become famous with the news of her being Wang Li Lei's fiancée sent throughout china, she had become a news and almost all people noticed who she was.

"Yes." confirmed Xiao Yun, "Have my subordinates came?" 

"Yes. Please enter this way." The man ushered her the way inside. When they entered, Xiao Yun turned her eyes subtly around the place, the corridor was wide and long, the place was made poshly and fancily as it was a big program attended by many people.

Tian Shi followed behind Xiao Yun while Hi Gu Yan stood before Xiao Yun, they collected a lot amount of gazes until they came to a personal room for each designers. Xiao Yun as the CEO of her own company truthfully didn't have to enter in the backstage. She could stand behind to the party hall but first she want to meet Zhi Ling Ling, who would be the main model for the walk show.

When they entered, the man who ushered her knocked on the room and when the door was opened, the man left.
