Chapter 1296: 1296

Yu Lili felt she was being too presumptuous in thinking that . Perhaps Ou Ming’s mother was feeling bored and decided to take her out to see more of their world . In this situation, she didn’t dare say a word . She followed behind Jiao Ziqing silently into the garage .

“Do you know how to drive?” Jiao Ziqing suddenly asked .

Yu Lili immediately answered, “I do!”

“OK . You drive . ” Jiao Ziqing unlocked the car doors and tossed the car keys over to Yu Lili before getting into the passenger seat in front .

It was hard for Yu Lili to read Jiao Ziqing and understand what she was up to . As the saying went, women are not meant to be understood . She was finally beginning to comprehend the meaning of that saying .

Without any further delay, Yu Lili drove off to the exclusive country club that Jiao Ziqing had provided directions to . She parked the car and headed in with Jiao Ziqing .

Jiao Ziqing and her friends had reserved a private room for their gathering . Waiting inside were a few other rich middle-aged ladies . Their figures had been preserved very well, and their skin still looked supple and smooth .

From appearances alone, they looked the same age as Jiao Ziqing . If Yu Lili hadn’t known of their ages beforehand, she would have guessed they were only a little past 30 .

“You’re finally here . Hey, who’s this girl?” one of the ladies asked in surprise . “Why have you brought another young lady today?”

Jiao Ziqing didn’t reply . She turned and made her way to sit in front of them .

The waitress served tea . Jiao Ziqing took a long and leisurely sip before introducing her friend to Yu Lili . “This is Li Pingting, my good friend . ”

This was the lady that had spoken to Jiao Ziqing moments before . Yu Lili nodded her head and smiled politely, “Hello, Auntie Li . ”

“This is another good friend of mine, Qiao Meng,” Jiao Ziqing said .

“Hello, Auntie Qiao,” Yu Lili greeted dutifully .

“I’m Zhuang Yunhua,” another woman introduced herself with a smile to Yu Lili . “You must be Ziqing’s daughter-in-law . You must be a pretty formidable individual to have married Ou Ming . ”

Daughter-in-law…

That term made Yu Lili feel a little sense of unworthiness . She laughed awkwardly and stole a glance at Jiao Ziqing .

Jiao Ziqing put her teacup down and said, “She’s shy . Right, Yunmeng, is your daughter’s wedding day approaching soon?

It was obvious that Jiao Ziqing had said that to change the topic . Yu Lili let out a sigh of relief .

Zhuang Yunhua was soon immersed in a conversation with Jiao Ziqing . The good friends were chatting away, and their laughter became increasingly raucous . No one paid any attention to Yu Lili at the side .

When the ladies became bored of their conversation, they opened a table and engaged each other in a game of mahjong .

Yu Lili stayed by the side quietly, helping them to top up their tea every now and then .

Throughout the whole session, Jiao Ziqing never introduced the girl whom she had brought to the gathering without advanced notice .

Li Pingting was an impatient person . Whatever patience she had possessed had worn thin . She finally asked, “Ziqing, why isn’t your daughter-in-law saying anything? What’s her name?”

Along with Li Pingting, all the other ladies were of the opinion that Yu Lili was being too inconspicuous in her demeanor .

When Yu Lili heard the term “daughter-in-law” mentioned again, her awkward feeling returned .

Did Ou Ming’s mother count me as a daughter-in-law? It is most likely that Jiao Ziqing won’t recognize me as such .

Unexpectedly, Jiao Ziqing cast a glance at Yu Lili and replied without a care, “Who knows? Perhaps she’s looking down on you, Dongfeng . ”

A mahjong tile was thrown out with a slam . At the same time, Yu Lili’s heart skipped a beat before soaring sky high .

Ou Ming’s mother hasn’t refuted my identity as a daughter-in-law!
