The begonias in the garden had bloomed beautifully.
At the mini party were Old Master, Li Lei and Xia Ling, and no one else. Maybe Old Master was really planning to accept Xia Ling, given that he did not invite Su Tang or even Li Rui.
Xia Ling was a little cautious at first, afraid that Old Master was actually setting a trap for her. But as the meeting proceeded, she realized that although he didn't seem to like her yet, he was trying his best to suppress it. He was putting in the effort to be civil and courteous.
Hence, Xia Ling reciprocated with sincerity and was polite to him as well.
She wasn't expecting them to be on good terms after one meeting, all she hoped for was that Old Master wouldn't disapprove of their relationship.
Li Lei was happy as well, or rather, he was the happiest of the three — his most beloved woman was being accepted by his most respected grandfather, what a blessing this was!
