Lily lifted an eyebrow at Jiang Ruo before she smiled. She wondered if the woman had something against her. She then eyed the old man, who seemed to agree with Jiang Ruo's words. Lily and Zhou Jingren already introduce themselves to the old man right after arriving where he immediately asked them to drink some wine for being late.
As someone who still values traditional Chinese tradition, drinking some wine if you are late should be normal in this household. "Alright," she said as Zhou Jingren rose from his seat and held his hand so she could hold him.
This action might be simple, but this earned a lot of envious stares from women at the party. After all, they were all human. A gentleman is not something unique, but a good looking gentleman is different. This is just how the world works.
Zhou Jingren is not only handsome, but he is also successful and wealthy. Aside from this, he seemed to treat his wife really well too. Isn't he just the perfect man?
