Chapter 41: Why is your face so red?
[ Present ]
In the living room, on the sofa two people were seated side by side in immense despair. Both were going through to the pain of sacrificing their sleep and also of challenging Madam Wen. Both had sleep in their eyes, but couldn't come to the point to close their eyes, with their head hung down they were taking a nap while their eyes still open.
But their contentment was long broken, when they felt someone sitting opposite to them. Like electricity had ran through them, they both straightened their back and sat facing the person with there eyes wide open enough for the eyeballs to pop out. Their sleepiness was long gone by today's incident.
Happy with the result, Madam Wen met eye contact with them, one by one and cleared her throat notifying Wen Mei and Wen Peng that they could relax. But both of them did not dare to do so, who knows when the anger takes the reign? Seeing that her notice was gone waste, Madam Wen again cleared her throat. But again no response.
Wen Peng whispered to Wen Mei " Did you do something to anger her?". Hearing the question Wen Mei's wounds revived again. Her mind played the part when she had thrown the pillow at her mother's face. Thinking of the pillow, Wen Mei couldn't help but curse the pillow. * Damn that pillow, why it had to land on mother's face of all the places!*
But Wen Mei could not bring her words to her mouth, or her father will blame her for angering her mother. Shaking her head in a negative she backfired the question, to change the topic " No, but did you do something to anger her?"
Getting his question back to him, Wen Peng thought of him rejecting his wife's suggestion. He couldn't help but curse Xi Hui Long. *Darn that old Xi. He had to come to the capital without notice, and he also without prior permission told his secretary to arrange a meeting. And also that secretary did as the brat told him. I'll see him next time.*
But he couldn't tell this to his daughter, or she will tease him again and again because of this. He too shook his head in negative.
Seeing those two whispering, Madam Wen couldn't help but let a loud sigh through her mouth, startling both Wen Mei and Wen Peng. Madam Wen said " Honey, you can rest in the guest room. I will wake you up when its time for lunch."
Hearing this Wen Peng became so happy that he stared at his wife with loving eyes. Madam Wen caught him staring with the loving look and her cheeks unknowingly blushed, not wanting to let her husband notice it she quickly said " A-are you not sleepy? Do you not want to go?"
Hearing the words, Wen Peng jumped from his seat and dashed to the guest room with all his speed. Seeing all this Wang Yu Yan chuckled and took a seat beside Wen Mei while she enjoyed the show.
With her father getting unscathed, Wen Mei became nervous, because now all attention was on her. Wen Mei put all her attention to her mother's lips, trying to understand what she will say. When after sometime Madam Wen's lips opened, Wen Mei became all ready to listen to her mother's scolding. She closed her eyes, waiting for her doom, but to her surprise, the words were totally different from what she had imagined.
" Do you both want to go for camping?" asked Madam Wen while she eyed Wen Mei. Hearing the words, Wen Mei took sometime to process them in her mind. Still not believing the words said she said in confusion " W- what ?". Seeing her reaction Wang Yu Yan chuckled.
Madam Wen who was not expecting the reaction, said again with a sigh " Do you want to go out to camp? It's no problem if you don't want to."
Flinching from her last words, Wen Mei hurriedly said " A-Ah we will go. Will we not, Yan Yan?" while she showed Wang Yu Yan a cute look.
Looking at her cute look and then at Madam Wen, after sometime Wang Yu Yan said " Sure". Wen Mei showed a toothy smile to her friend and in her mind she thanked Wang Yu Yan, as she was her lucky charm.
" So its good then. But there will be only two of you. I will be worried for you both. Take someone with you. HmAh Yes take Cao Guang and his friends. It will be nice." said Madam Wen.
Hearing this Wang Yu Yan was quiet displeased, because it should have been a only girls trip. But it was quiet opposite for Wen Mei, who had a little tinge of red on her cheek. When Wang Yu Yan saw this her mood completely changed from displeased to a happy one. She pinched Wen Mei at the side of her arm while she her urge to pull her cheek.
Wen Mei felt that she was caught, she tried to calm herself down but instead of calming down, she became more flustered and she felt heat running through her cheeks. She quickly averted her gaze to the window.
Seeing two of them spacing out, Madam Wen became impatient and said "C'mon girls, tell me whether I should call Cao Guang or not?" while she elegantly sipped her tea.
" A-h sure. It would be nice with Cao Guang there" said Wen Mei hurriedly. Hearing her words Wang Yu Yan and Madam Wen stared at her.
When Wen Mei felt that she had said something she shouldn't have, her cheeks became a level more red. " .A-and his friends too. What I wanted to say is, with Cao Guang and his friends there, it would be more fun. Hehe" explained Wen Mei hurriedly while she showed an awkward laugh.
Hearing her explanation Wang Yu Yan could not hold her laughter. Striking the iron while it was hot, she teased Wen Mei by saying " Then Wen Mei you should call him right away"
Wen Mei glared at her friend and inwardly wanted to smack her friend for saying this. But in midst of this her cheeks were like at the darkest red, like fully ripen tomato. She tried to protest, but she was cut off by Madam Wen
" Hm.. Xiao Mei you should call him. Also it will be awkward if I call him on your stead" said Madam Wen while she was shocked to see Wen Mei's cheeks replaced by two tomatoes. Showing concern she asked " Are you feeling unwell Xiao Mei? Do you have a fever?"
" I-I'll call him" said Wen Mei while she shoot draggers at Wang Yu Yan. To which Wang Yu Yan lightly shrugged with an innocent expression.
"But your face is so red" said Madam Wen worried.
" M-my face" said Wen Mei while she touched her cheeks which had heat flowing through them. " Ohthat I-I'll go to the balcony for some fresh air. Maybe I am suffocating in here." Said Wen Mei while she ran towards the balcony with a lighting speed
