The old ladies were dressed in elegant spring wear. The embroidery, chiffon, and silk all possessed a very oriental air.
They began to sway their bodies according to the music. Their movements were gentle and beautiful. On the surface, the actions seemed soft, but beneath that exterior was an inner sense of strength and toughness.
When the eight old ladies stood together and moved in unison, it wasnât at all like what Yu Lili had seen in previous line dances.
This isnât line dancing at all! This is clearly a classical summer dance!
The old ladiesâ movements werenât exactly fluid, but they were executed beautifully.
The night breeze gently blew past. The trees around them swayed, and the rustle of the leaves could be heard. The garments on the ladies flowed with the wind, giving them an ethereal effect.
Many people passed by. Upon seeing the elderly women dancing, they whipped out their cell phones and began to record the scene.
When the dance ended, a raucous applause erupted.
Yu Lili was lost in wonder. She applauded them from the bottom of her heart. âItâs so beautiful! I never thought youâd be this good!â
Old Mrs. Shen puffed up upon hearing the compliment and replied, âThat goes without saying. How do you think my health has remained so good? Hmm?â
âOh! No wonder. Not only are you in the pink of health, you also look beautiful,â Yu Lili merrily said as she held onto Old Mrs. Shenâs arm.
Old Mrs. Shen was overwhelmed by the compliments. âYou have a really sweet tongue!â
âYeah. Granny, letâs go home.â Yu Lili looked at the time. âItâs already nine. You should be going to sleep.â
âWhat? Why do I have to sleep so early?â Old Mrs. Shen asked. âCome with me, Iâm going to take you to eat some skewers!â
âEh...â Yu Lili almost choked on her own saliva. âGranny, that sort of food isnât good for the body. You should eat less of it.â
âAre you underestimating me because Iâm old?â Old Mrs. Shen asked.
âNot at all. I just felt that your beauty and youth should be preserved,â Yu Lili replied. âEating such junk food will have an adverse effect on your beauty.â
Old Mrs. Shen deliberately pulled a long face, but she couldnât restrain herself and burst out in laughter. âAlright then. Letâs go back. Iâm leaving! The rest of you have fun!â
The other old ladies around waved at Old Mrs. Shen and said, âCome a little earlier tomorrow night. Weâll teach your granddaughter how to dance.â
âSure!â Yu Lili waved enthusiastically at them. âGoodbye, Grannies!â
The square wasnât far from the Shen residence, so they reached it in no time.
Yu Lili held Old Mrs. Shenâs arm as she entered. The first sight that greeted her in the sitting room was Shen Zhilie with his brother, Shen Luoâan.
Shen Luoâanâs eyes shot to Yu Lili. That sudden action made Yu Lili feel as if she were under the scrutiny of an X-ray. She had to rein in her shock.
âGranny, youâre back.â Shen Luoâan voice was emotionless. Although the statement was directed toward Old Mrs. Shen, his eyes stayed on Yu Lili. âAnd, this is Uncle Wenâs daughter, Wen Lili?â
âUh huh!â Old Mrs. Shenâs face expressed her annoyance at Shen Luoâan for asking the obvious. âFor the next few days, theyâll be staying here. Itâll be better if you move to your villa.â
Shen Luoâan laughed humorlessly when he heard that. âThere are guests at home. Of course I should be at home to entertain them. How can I just move to the villa? Oh, right! Shen Manting has returned today as well.â
Yu Lili reeled back in shock. Her eyes landed on Shen Luoâanâs face. Perhaps her instinct was wrong, but she felt as if something sinister hid behind his expression.
Shen Luoâan seemed to harbor some malicious intent toward her. In other words, he did not welcome her presence.
âIt was Shen Mantingâs own decision to come back. I was wondering why. Now I know itâs because of Ou Ming.â
