Chapter 282: Change
Han Li listened to Qin Yan’s words. On the surface, he appeared surprised, but in reality, he was rather skeptical. He thought with high probability that this was another pitiful woman who had been heavily poisoned by things like "The Chaste and Fierce Women's Chronicles."
The young masters in the hall, upon hearing that the cousin young lady was arriving, immediately showed joyful expressions and whispered excitedly among themselves, their eyes filled with anticipation. This made Han Li slightly startled, but he soon realized that this cousin young lady was probably as stunning as a blooming flower!
Just as Han Li was thinking this, a little maid and a plainly dressed young woman entered from outside the hall.
Though this woman had delicate brows and a graceful, quiet demeanor, she exuded an indescribable fiery charm. Her captivating elegance made most of the men in the hall feel an impulse to hold her close and cherish her.
As for those immature boys, they widened their eyes and stared intensely.
It seemed these Qin family young masters had been infatuated with this cousin young lady for a long time!
But when Han Li clearly saw the woman's face, a flash of shock passed through his eyes. The dull foolishness on her face suddenly vanished. Fortunately, Han Li quickly suppressed his emotions and regained his usual calm.
Because this change happened in an instant! Moreover, everyone’s gaze had already focused on the newly arrived young woman, so he almost slipped up.
At this moment, Han Li’s heart was tossing and turning like turbulent waves.
This “cousin young lady,” though her appearance had changed somewhat from before, now carrying more of a mature woman’s charm, had those spiritually intelligent eyes and an oval delicate face that made Han Li instantly recognize her as none other than the Mo Residence’s second young miss, the delicate girl who loved studying the art of medicine — Mo Fengwu.
As soon as Mo Fengwu entered the room, her face flushed slightly from being stared at by everyone. She instinctively lowered her head and naturally didn’t see Han Li sitting just below Qin Yan.
Qin Yan, seeing these unworthy juniors, felt extremely annoyed!
“Ahem, ahem.”
His face darkened. After coughing forcefully a few times, the young men who were entranced by Mo Fengwu’s beauty finally seemed to wake up and diverted their eyes, quickly putting on the posture of honorable gentlemen. They were afraid of angering the head of the family!
“Ping’er! Come sit beside the third madam,” the third madam said thoughtfully, calling Mo Fengwu over to sit next to her.
“Thank you, third madam!” Mo Fengwu replied gently, then gracefully walked to the third madam’s side and sat down properly.
“Ping’er, don’t always stay indoors. It will suffocate a person alive. It’s better to go out and take a walk more often!”
Clearly, Qin Yan felt great pity for Mo Fengwu, speaking in a very gentle tone.
“Thank you, uncle. Ping’er understands!” Mo Fengwu still kept her head lowered, appearing meek and obedient.
“Ahem!”
Qin Yan gave a light sigh.
Every time his niece obediently agreed, but after returning, she still acted the same as before. Qin Yan felt helpless. But then he remembered the main matter and pointed at Han Li as he introduced him to Mo Fengwu:
“Ping’er, let me introduce you! This is Han Li, Han’s young nephew. He is a descendant of an elder who once did a great favor to your uncle. You should meet him! You may call him ‘senior brother’ from now on!”
Han Li carefully observed Mo Fengwu’s reaction. Upon hearing the name “Han Li,” her body trembled slightly, and he immediately understood the situation.
After a moment, Mo Fengwu slowly lifted her head, revealing her stunning face. At this moment, her extremely captivating appearance was calm and serene. After gently pressing her lips together, she spoke softly:
“Greetings, senior brother Han!”
Mo Fengwu seemed truly to not remember Han Li.
