In less than five minutes, the soldier returned and bowed ninety degrees.
He said respectfully,
“Please come in.”
After Bai Weiyang walked in, she immediately saw the luxurious and old-fashioned German chandelier, exquisite vases from the Ming Dynasty, and white maple furniture. On the right-hand side of the door was an old-looking wine cabinet with all kinds of red wine. It was obvious that the owner was very westernized.
The dining room also had a Western-style dining table!
Was the “maid” dressed in a maid’s uniform with a Chinese bun, a Chinese maidservant or a western maid? Bai Weiyang could tell from the maidservant’s attire that the mistress of the house wanted to pursue western characteristics. Unfortunately, it only made her look ridiculous.
As she sized up the house indifferently, she also felt that someone was observing her.
Bai Weiyang remained calm.
The maidservant asked her to sit down and wait for Madam. Bai Weiyang said that there was no need and left after saying a few words.
Chief Commander Feng’s wife, Wu Su, had become very fashionable after coming into contact with foreigners in the past few years. She heard from the servants that Bai Weiyang from the Bai Residence wanted to see her and break off the engagement. A pleasantly surprised expression appeared on her face. After waiting for so many years, she had finally waited for that idiot to personally break off the engagement. It was not too bad.
However, before she could go down the stairs, she saw the girl standing in the living room.
She was dressed in a green bamboo satin cheongsam. Her long hair was tied into a long braid at the side of her shoulders, and she was wearing a pair of English high-heeled leather shoes. She stood tall and straight, exuding a cold and arrogant aura just by standing there, making her look simple and elegant.
Was this the retarded and mentally unstable Third Bai?
While sizing up the house, Bai Weiyang’s peripheral vision caught a glimpse of Wu Su’s figure at the spiral staircase. In her impression, the Bai Family had come to the Feng Family’s banquet a few times, so Bai Weiyang had Wu Su’s image in her mind!
Bai Weiyang’s demeanor was neither servile nor overbearing. She nodded at Wu Su calmly.
Wu Su was shocked. Since when did that idiot look so gracious?
After Wu Su went downstairs, Bai Weiyang nodded again.
“I’m really sorry to disturb you so late at night! Bai Weiyang greets you, Madam!”
“You’re Bai Weiyang?”
Wu Su could not help but look surprised.
Bai Weiyang was still smiling. “That’s right!”
Wu Su’s heart was filled with surprise, but she said calmly,
“Sit down and talk.”
Wu Su was still silently observing when Bai Weiyang sat down. She saw the girl in the cheongsam sit down sweetly.
A maidservant in a short top, a skirt and her hair in a bun came over with a teacup and snack shelf with French patterns.
Tea and pastries.
Wu Su saw Bai Weiyang, who was an idiot in her impression, pretend to be gracious, so she was slightly angry. She pointed at the teacup with a superior expression.
“This is Sri Lanka Ceylon’s black tea! You’ve never drunk it before, right?”
‘Never drunk it before?’
What a joke.
Bai Weiyang rolled her eyes in her heart.
She had tasted all kinds of delicacies and special tea leaves. Only these people who lived in the old era were like hillbillies. They even wanted to laugh at others for being country bumpkins.
“Thank you for your hospitality, Madam!”
She picked up the teacup with interest and took a sip of the black tea elegantly. “The fragrance is pure and the taste is rich. The color is red and bright, and the bottom of the leaves is slightly dark. It’s not bad!”
What did she mean by not bad?
Wu Su couldn’t believe her ears. Was that what Bai Weiyang had said?
She was like a completely different person.
