C181 Before the Tea Party
"Of course, there is also another goal. That is to gain Yan Duoya's trust — to sharpen the knife without delay. Only by obtaining the design can we sneak into Soong Family Great House without alerting anyone, "Soong Shiyan muttered," Tiankui, I know that you want to get rid of Yinn Haoming and Yan Duoya as soon as possible so that I can return Dijin's body. However, we cannot be in too much of a hurry to do something like this. "1
Tiankui remained silent when she heard this, but from her expression, it could be seen that she agreed with Soong Shiyan's words.
Soong Shiyan suddenly thought of something and walked out of the room to the corridor on the second floor. She shouted to the stylist who was about to leave behind the servants, "Wait a moment —"
Hearing Soong Shiyan's voice, the stylist turned his head and looked up at her. He asked with some surprise, "Miss Jing, is there anything that you're not satisfied with? Do you need us to make a new model for you?"
"No, I'm very satisfied — don't be in such a hurry to leave. Help my good friends to dress up properly as well. It would be best if they could be the kind that makes people's eyes light up." Soong Shiyan said to the stylist with a smile.
"It's not like I went to the Soong Family Great House to attend some 'sister tea'. I do have serious work to do, so why do I need to dress up?" Tiankui followed Soong Shiyan out of the room. Hearing her words, she said in a slightly displeased manner.
Of course, she had also heard the words "good friend" from Soong Shiyan. She pursed her lips, seeming to despise him. However, from the corner of her lips, one could tell that she was in quite a good mood.
Soong Shiyan glanced at Tiankui and knew that she found it troublesome. She didn't want the stylist to fiddle around with her. Therefore, she leisurely said: "Tiankui, you came with me to Soong Family Great House to attend this tea ceremony in my capacity of a personal assistant. So, you have to dress up and not embarrass me — and anyway, didn't you have a falling out with Yan Duoya before? Then this time, you can't let her underestimate you, right? "
Tiankui felt that Soong Shiyan's words made sense. When she heard that Yan Duoya would look down on her, she didn't reject it anymore and followed the stylist to Soong Shiyan's cloakroom to pick out a dress. As for Soong Shiyan, she went to her own bedroom, held her binoculars, and observed the situation in Soong Family Big House.
One after another, the cars drove into Soong Family Mansion. Some were colorful, others were extremely ostentatious, some were dark in color, and some were low-key and reserved. Soong Shiyan roughly counted and knew that most of the Noble Miss's had already arrived at Soong Family Great House. She kept her binoculars and was about to go and see when Tiankui would finish her training.
At that moment, the butler came to her room, knocked on the door, and said, "Miss, Anna is ready. She's waiting for you downstairs."
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan replied, "I understand." With that, she tidied her hair, then walked out of the bedroom at a leisurely pace and headed downstairs.
… ….
Tiankui was wearing a light pink sleeveless dress. It was extremely light and light. The hem of her dress swayed gently like a willow branch swaying in the wind. The high collar design of the gauze made her neck appear even more slender and slender. A thin veil was tied on each of her arms, and her chest was covered in white and pink embroidery, causing Tiankui to lose a bit of her sharpness. Her short hair, after having been taken care of by a hairstylist, was fluffy and slightly curled, giving off an additional indolent aura.
Soong Shiyan had never seen Tiankui dressed like this. However, this dress that was filled with immortal aura really suited Tiankui. Soong Shiyan looked at Tiankui in a daze.
"If it weren't for the good weather today, I wouldn't wear this shabby dress. It's really a hindrance." When Tiankui saw Soong Shiyan walk downstairs, the smile on her face disappeared as she said this with disdain.
"Miss Anna, how is this a lousy dress? This dress is this year's high - value D family spring, A city a lot of Noble Miss can not buy! "If it wasn't for the fact that we, Miss Jing Sung, had a lot of face, this dress would probably have been taken by the other ladies." A stylist said to Tiankui with a smile.
"Humph!" Tiankui rolled her eyes, let out a cold snort, and stopped talking.
Usually, not only would she help Soong Shiyan monitor Yinn Haoming and Yan Duoya, she would also be here whenever she was called for. How would she have the time to pay attention to these things? The word "tattered dress" in her mouth made it seem as if she really didn't know what was good for her. It really made her unhappy to be embarrassed in front of Soong Shiyan!
"Miss Jing, what do you think?" The manager of the modeling team asked with a smile when he saw Soong Shiyan walking down the stairs.
Soong Shiyan came back to her senses after hearing this. She glanced at Tiankui and smiled at the person in charge, "Not bad!"
"If we can satisfy you, Miss Jing, then we can feel at ease." The supervisor said humbly while looking at Soong Shiyan.
Hearing that, Tiankui walked to Soong Shiyan's side and snorted coldly. She said to her in a strange tone, "You really have seen too many strange things!" I'm just usually too busy. If I dress up seriously, even if it's the number one lady in A city, she'll have to stand aside for me! Don't you think so? "
"Yes yes yes, you are right! How is she as beautiful as you? In my eyes, you are the most beautiful! " Soong Shiyan didn't get angry after hearing Tiankui's words. On the contrary, she followed Tiankui's words and praised her.
In the past, the first lady in A city was her, Soong Shiyan. But now, under the domination of Yan Duoya, her position as the first wife was already in danger. Soong Shiyan didn't really care about these flashy titles. On the contrary, she was a bit disgusted with them. It was fine if they did it themselves, but how good was the title of the first lady? Is it good enough for Noble Miss to fight openly and secretly for it?
These words of praise, however, caused Tiankui to shudder and feel a wave of numbness. She had grown up in an organization. No matter how strong her ability to gather intelligence was, her boss had never praised her in front of her. The boss had always carried the concept of "humbling and profiting from one's mistakes" and never complimented anyone. It was to prevent everyone from being complacent because of a moment of achievement — in their industry, the thing they feared the most was to underestimate their opponents and ruin themselves because of a moment of pride.
When Tiankui saw Soong Shiyan looking at her with a smile, she did not seem angry at all. In an instant, she had lost her desire to bicker and argue with her.
Wasn't Soong Shiyan sighing in her heart? Ever since the previous incident, even though Tiankui was still quite rational when it came to big matters, she always disagreed with him about small matters. She could only console herself in her heart — often bickering could actually deepen people's feelings. Wasn't that the case for old couples? Even if they kept bickering, they were still able to survive through so many years of trials and hardships together.
"They have already arrived at Soong Family Great House, so we should also set off — making them wait too long, isn't good after all." Soong Shiyan looked at her watch and said to Tiankui with a serious expression.
Hearing this, Tiankui did not argue with Soong Shiyan any longer. She nodded and walked to the car parked outside the door with Soong Shiyan.
