Xie Ming smiled awkwardly when she heard Mrs. Wu's words.
Xie Ming had no words to counter her self appreciating words.
Before Mrs. Wu can say anymore, Jian Yan who was sitting at the couch earlier stood up and started walking towards them.
Xie Ming's eyebrows raised in surprise as he was walking towards them.
He was wearing a casual blue and white checked shirt with black trousers and was looking attractive with his flawlessly carved features and pointed jaws.
With his shirt's sleeves rolled up, his veins were obvious making him look more appealing and handsome. The casual look makes him more approachable and handsome.
His looks were on par with Liwei's but not above him. Liwei is still the most desirable man in the country in terms of looks and power.
He walked towards them and stood beside Mrs. Wu and called out to her, " Mom."
Mrs. Wu looked at her son and smiled then she turned to look at shocked Xie Ming, " Xie Ming, this is my son, Jian Yan about whom I was talking about. How nice it would be if I could get a daughter in law like you." she said while frowning.
" But sadly, my son always rejects the girls I introduced to him and never shows interest in any girl either. What's the use of having such a handsome face when you can't even date. Hmph." she said while pouting.
Jian Yan was a famous actor. Many people wanted to get their daughters to get married to him but he never looked at those girls.
Many women tried to approach him and even want to seduce him but he never looked at those women.
Mrs. Wu was worried about him and wanted him to settle and have a family. So that she could also brag about her daughter in law in her friend circle.
But Jian Yan never listen to her.
...
Xie Ming was shocked when she heard that Jian Yan was Mrs. Wu's son. Her head started spinning in confusion.
Her eyes grew in shock and her mouth opened to speak but she couldn't.
She had assumed him as a pervert at first, what if he told this to her mother?
' But does he know that I thought he was a pervert? And he may not even remember me? Hmm, that's possible. '
Jian Yan looked at her as his lips curled upwards. He was amused by her shocked reaction.
Her cheeks were slightly red don't know is it because of blush or embarrassment, but it made her look cute and attractive.
He wanted to chuckle out loud at her reaction but controlled his laugh.
Xie Ming looked at Mrs Wu and stuttered, " But why is he Jian Yan?" she unknowingly blurted out.
She was confused, as they were Wu's and his name was Jian Yan. Why?
Mrs. Wu looked at Xie Ming and chuckled." Ah, Jian Yan was his stage name. His real name is Wu Yan. He doesn't want to use his father's name to get success, so he changed it to Jian Yan." she explained naturally.
"Oh." Xie Ming said while still in daze.
When she was still lost in her thoughts, a hand reached out to her for a handshake, she blankly stared at the hand that Jian Yan had extended towards her and blinks innocently.
Jian Yan raised his eyebrows at her as if telling her to shake hands with him. She hurriedly stretches her hand and shook hands with him politely.
When she placed her hand in his for a shake, he felt the softness of her cold hands and smiled in amusement,
He doesn't want to leave the hand but had to.
After their handshake, he placed his hands in the pockets of his trouser back to his cold and expressionless face.
She was embarrassed to confront him like this as she doesn't know if he remembers her or not. Because that day in Global World, she did behave weirdly seeing him.
As she was wondering to exit the shop, Mrs. Jin entered and called out for Xie Ming, " Ming, I am sorry I was late. Did you choose anything." she asked her as she patted on her shoulder.
Xie Ming was glad to see Mother Jin finally coming back. She was feeling uncomfortable alone here.
Mrs. Wu and Jian Yan both looked at Mother Jin curiously.
Mother Jin also raised her eyebrows at the people in front of her and looked at Xie Ming to know about them.
Xie Ming looked at Mrs. Wu and said, " Mrs Wu, this my Mother Jin Yue. And a mother she is Mr. Wu's wife, Mrs. Wu. We met a few days ago at a lunch meeting with Liwei and Mr Wu." she explained calmly.
Mother Jin smiled at Mrs. Wu and said, " Oh. Mrs Wu. I have heard a lot about you. Xie Ming was telling me how you two became so close." she said while politely smiling at her.
Mrs Wu also smiled back.
" Xie Ming is so sweet that anyone can like her. Only stupid people cannot see her such a nice personality."
Xie Ming smiled awkwardly as both mothers were talking and complimenting her.
On the other hand, Jian Yan's face darkened at the name of Liwei. He has no idea who he is and how he is related to Xie Ming.
He stared at Xie Ming trying to figure out why she was so calm seeing him in front of her.
' How can she not react? Is she ignoring me?'
...
Mrs. Wu understood when Xie Ming introduced Mother Jin that she must be Liwei's Mother.
But she was surprised seeing such a bond between mother and daughter in law.
She smiled at them and they all went towards the counter in front of them to choose some accessories.
They were all happily chatting and looking at the accessories in front of them as the attendant was showing them.
Jian Yan stood behind as he watched Xie Ming happily chatting with others.
He was surprised seeing such polite and well mannered Xie Ming.
The Xie Ming he knew was clumsy, arrogant, short-tempered, sharp tongue. But all these shortcomings of her works like a charm on him.
He liked her as it is but this Xie Ming was different. There is something to her that was heart fluttering to him.
And he doesn't know why, but she always ignores him whenever they meet.
' Did she forget me? No, it can't be. How can she forget me? Was I nothing in her life that she forgot me like this?' he wondered while looking at her back.
' And who the heck is this Liwei? Wasn't her family name Xie? Then why her mother is called Jin? ' he was confused at this situation.
He looked at her and wondered, why does she seem so different?
