Unpredictable Marriage. Chapter 8
Advertisement
While Chen Lihua's hair was being combed after washing and blow drying, She kept telling the person attending to her to take it easy so her won't cut.
Seeing as Chen Lihua kept complaining about her hair, Lady Chen couldn't keep up with it, "Hua'er what are kicking a fuss for?, don't you know your hair will cut a little as its being combed?".
Chen Lihua kept quiet after her mother's words and prayed very hard that the torment will be over soon as she didn't want her hair to cut.
Once the torment was over, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at her mother.
When she looked over, She saw that the hairstyle that Lady Chen requested for was almost completed.
Then she hurriedly turned back and urged the person attending to her to hurry up with her hair because she knew once her mother was through, she will start complaining about the time and she didn't want that headache yet.
Halfway through the braiding of her hair, Lady Chen's hairstyle was completed she moved to sit on the sofa while waiting for Chen Lihua.
Although her mother warned her to behave before they arrived, she couldn't care more about it as she couldn't endure the pain she was in as she complained bitterly, "Take it easy, are you trying to pull my hair off my scap?"
Hearing her daughter's complains, Lady Chen shaked her head and wondered what was wrong with her daughter, 'why is she complainly about pain with such a simple hairstyle?'.
Lady Chen couldn't care more about her and continued with the magazine on hairstyles she was going through pretending as if she didn't hear anything.
Anyone hearing Chen Lihua's complains will think she is unreasonable but what they didn't know was that Chen Lihua was afraid of pain and her hair cutting so, she always emphasized on it if she needed to.

The person attending to her apologized and continued braiding her hair.
When she was through with her hair, Chen Lihua finally relaxed.
Everybody their complimented on the length of her hair.
Chen Lihua said a word of thanks to the hairstylist as she admired her hair in the mirror.
Seeing that Chen Lihua thanked her, the hairstylist became happy and forgot all about Chen Lihua's earlier complains.
Next, Lady Chen and Chen Lihua had their nails fixed(french tips).
Lady Chen paid for their hair and nail services with her credit card and left with Chen Lihua and little Baozhai.
This is the Chen family's rule. They don't put bills on their tab or leave without paying because they own it, rather they pay right their with cash or any means of payment of their choice.
Little Baozhai took Lady Chen and Chen Lihua to the the fourth floor where the Adult clothing were sold.
Baozhai is called little Baozhai because she's the youngest worker at Chen's Mall.
Arriving at the floor, they entered the female section.
Lady Chen told Baozhai to assist Chen Lihua on her clothes why she sat on a Sofa waiting for them.
"Hua'er go along with Baozhai when you dress, come and show me so that I will see if it suits you, I don't want to follow you so I won't be tempted to pick a dress for you and I don't want it to like you have to follow my instructions, I want you to choose what you like".
"Thanks a lot for your consideration Lady Chen" Chen Lihua gave a little bow and walked out with Baozhai with a bright smile on her face.
With Baozhai around, Chen Lihua didn't need any attendant to assist her.
Chen Lihua being a size 8(USA size), chose a straight cut size 8 off shoulder royal blue knee length gown with a side slit.
She went into the changing room to change into the dress and came out.

When little Baozhai saw her, she exclaimed, "wow! young miss this dress was made just for you and the colour suits your complexion".
"Thank you", Chen Lihua replied.
The dress truly complimented her figure eight shape and the royal blue colour was well matched with her Snow White skin colour.
The off shoulder showed off her exquisite collarbone while the slit showed off her long fair legs.
Chen Lihua went to show the dress to lady Chen. When Lady Chen saw the dress on her daughter, she couldn't help complimenting, "My Hua'er is very beautiful, anything she wears fits her"
"Thanks mum" Chen Lihua replied happily.
Lady Chen paid for the outfit and the trio left for the fifth floor.
On getting to the fifth floor, Chen Lihua said she wanted a black heeled shoe and a black purse.
Baozhai directed them to the Gucci collection and pointed at a 3 inches black swede sandal saying, "Young Miss, this sandal will match your dress and your height, try it".
Chen Lihua is 180 centimeters tall, so she doesn't need to wear heels that will make her look like an Iroko tree.
Baozhai took the sandals and helped Chen Lihua put it on.
The sandals actually fitted her and lady Chen couldn't help saying a few words to Baozhai, "Little Baozhai has good eyes".
"Thank you madam" Chen Lihua replied while giggling. Then she told one attendant to get a black plain Gucci purse for Chen Lihua.
The attendant returned with the purse and passed it to Chen Lihua.
Seeing her daughter all dressed up, she couldn't help but be happy and said out loud, "Hua'er you are looking sweet, but it's time to get rid of those glasses for today".
After talking, she dragged Chen Lihua to the sun glasses section and picked one for her.
She made Chen Lihua sit down and removed the medicated glasses on her eyes and immediately replaced it with the sun glasses.
When Lady Chen was removing the medicated glasses, Chen Lihua didn't dare to open her eyes untill the sunglasses covered her eyes.
This is because Chen Lihua has a problem with light, whenever her eyes met with bright light, she will become unable to see and experience pain in her eyes, then tears will flow out of her eyes. That's why she wears medicated glasses and couldn't open her eyes earlier because the entire building has great lighting.
When she wore it, she didn't feel comfortable on it so she said to her mother, "Mum please, let me keep my glasses am not comfortable with the sunglasses".
"This girl, you only know how to call me mum when you want me to agree with you on something. I know your reason for rejecting the sunglasses don't worry, you only have to wear it for now, you can remove it before you sign the marriage certificate. I just want you to look more dazzling and show you off a bit". Lady Chen said winking at Chen Lihua.
Chen Lihua smiled in agreement and left the sunglasses on, then she took her white bag from her mother and transferred her phone, glasses and credit card to the black purse.
She understands that her mother loves and cares for her and therefore wants the best for her.
They trio left together again to the 6th floor.
Everybody that saw Chen Lihua couldn't help but envy her natural beauty without makeup because she was beautiful like a goddess and of course those beauty traits came from our Lady Chen.
Arriving at the sixth floor, both mother and daughter applied a light makeup.
Chen Lihua applied a black eyeliner on her eyelids, black eyeshadow, mascara making her eyes a look little dark.
