Chapter 1367 - It’s Not Good For You. Eat Less Of It.
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 wasn’t at all like what Yu Lili had seen in previous line dances.
This isn’t line dancing at all! This is clearly a classical summer dance!
The old ladies’ movements weren’t 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. “It’s so beautiful! I never thought you’d be this good!”
Old Mrs. Shen puffed up upon hearing the compliment and replied, “That goes without saying. How do you think my health has remained so good? Hmm?”
“Oh! No wonder. Not only are you in the pink of health, you also look beautiful,” Yu Lili merrily said as she held onto Old Mrs. Shen’s arm.
Old Mrs. Shen was overwhelmed by the compliments. “You have a really sweet tongue!”
“Yeah. Granny, let’s go home.” Yu Lili looked at the time. “It’s already nine. You should be going to sleep.”
“What? Why do I have to sleep so early?” Old Mrs. Shen asked. “Come with me, I’m going to take you to eat some skewers!”
“Eh…” Yu Lili almost choked on her own saliva. “Granny, that sort of food isn’t good for the body. You should eat less of it.”
“Are you underestimating me because I’m old?” Old Mrs. Shen asked.
“Not at all. I just felt that your beauty and youth should be preserved,” Yu Lili replied. “Eating such junk food will have an adverse effect on your beauty.”
Old Mrs. Shen deliberately pulled a long face, but she couldn’t restrain herself and burst out in laughter. “Alright then. Let’s go back. I’m leaving! The rest of you have fun!”
The other old ladies around waved at Old Mrs. Shen and said, “Come a little earlier tomorrow night. We’ll teach your granddaughter how to dance.”
“Sure!” Yu Lili waved enthusiastically at them. “Goodbye, Grannies!”
The square wasn’t far from the Shen residence, so they reached it in no time.
Yu Lili held Old Mrs. Shen’s arm as she entered. The first sight that greeted her in the sitting room was Shen Zhilie with his brother, Shen Luo’an.
Shen Luo’an’s 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.
“Granny, you’re back.” Shen Luo’an voice was emotionless. Although the statement was directed toward Old Mrs. Shen, his eyes stayed on Yu Lili. “And, this is Uncle Wen’s daughter, Wen Lili?”
“Uh huh!” Old Mrs. Shen’s face expressed her annoyance at Shen Luo’an for asking the obvious. “For the next few days, they’ll be staying here. It’ll be better if you move to your villa.”
Shen Luo’an laughed humorlessly when he heard that. “There 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.”
Yu Lili reeled back in shock. Her eyes landed on Shen Luo’an’s face. Perhaps her instinct was wrong, but she felt as if something sinister hid behind his expression.
Shen Luo’an seemed to harbor some malicious intent toward her. In other words, he did not welcome her presence.
“It was Shen Manting’s own decision to come back. I was wondering why. Now I know it’s because of Ou Ming.”
