Chapter 245 - Arrival
Li Jing smiled to the maids before walking down the passage to where the stairs was. Each step brought a clear realization of the bold step she was taking in life.
This was her new home and her new life.
By the time she got to her room, it was not much of a room anymore but a magnificent chamber. The chamber was so big that it looked like seven big rooms combined together.
There was the demarcation for the bed chamber with a door and a very big pink curtain to cover the door as well as a door leading to her dressing room and another door to her big bathroom, then another to her dining table.
Currently she was standing in the big living room with leather comfortable cushions and a very big flat screen TV.
It looked like a small house in a big house. The chambers was purely coloured with white and a touch of pink and gold. Every design, down to the cutleries and tea cups on the dining all showed the distinguished touch of a lady.
"Welcome to your rooms, Young miss." One of the maids in a different apparel said to her with a bow of her head.
"This is mine? Whoa!"
"Yes. Young miss.’ Li Jing’s eyes widened. She had thought she said that in her mind and only to her hearing but somehow the head made heard.
Li Jing was already thinking if she was a witch or something that she could hear her thoughts but then when she looked at her with surprise evident on her face.
"Thank you."
"I would be your head maid. You can ask me anything you wish to know and tell me the things you are not comfortable with and I would ensure everything meets your taste and need in this house."
"Thank you. Oh and by the way, what is your name?" Li Jing asked the polite slim young lady. Her shape and body made her look like she was in her late twenties but her baby face said otherwise.
"My manners, my name is Kai Alix, Young Miss."
"Nice to meet you, Alix. I hope you would assist me well."
"I would try my best."
"Thanks."
Before long it was already evening and time for the party.
The Lin residence buzzed with several cars and guests going in and coming out. It was the party time. It was the day her grandfather had been waiting for and one that Li Jing wasn’t so sure of, herself.
This marked a new point in her life. A turning stone and a road to more possibilities.
A lot of guests were invited from far and wide just to honour this occasion. To some people ity was just a normal occasion but to Mr. Lin, it was one of the best ceremonies he was going to host in his life.
It marked the return of a jewel and a hope once lost.
Soon enough, several guest had occupied the hall and began chatting amongst themselves. One of those guests was none other than, Yin Lifen herself.
She was to travel with Li Jing down here but something came up that ended up preventing her from going. Rather she came on her own and since she did, she had not seen Li Jing anywhere.
’Where could this young flower be at this time?’ Yin Lifen asked in her mind before approaching one of the serving girls for the event.
"Please can you direct me to the room of the young heiress?"
"Oh, I’m sorry ma. I cannot disclose that but if you ask her," she pointed to the head maid who was busy tending to the guest at the huge dining table. "She would be in the best position to tell you."
"No worries then, I would do just that, thanks."
"Welcome ma."
With that the maid bowed and left with her empty tray to get a refill of drinks and serve.
Without wasting anymore time, Yin Lifen made her way to where Kai Alix was and tapped on the shoulder of the lady.
"Excuse me, please I am looking for Li Jing." Yin Lifen said with a pleasant smile adorning her pretty face. She had done this to hopefully gain the favour of this maid so she could be directed to Li Jing.
Kai Alix turned to face her and looked at her with narrowed eyes as though she was running a security check on her before responding. This little ac t had gotten the almighty Yin Lifen irked.
’Why is she looking at me like a criminal?’ Yin Lifen asked herself in her mind.
"I’m sorry, who may you be?"
"I am Yin Lifen, Li Jing is expecting me."
"Yin Lifen, Yin Lifen," Kai Alix chanted in her mind. The name seemed familiar but she had to make sure it was the right person.
This was so as Mr. Lin, Li Jing’s grandfather had specifically warn all the maids and servants in his house against disclosing anything about Li Jing to anyone.
Especially as some like Ding Jiaying or some haters might come to harm her or something. So a list of those who hates Li Jing and those she was cool with was passed to them all. That was why Kai Alix was making sure first.
"Oh... Young Miss Li Jing’s best friend."
"Yeah..." Yin Lifen was in no mood to even hide her annoyance at the youyng ;lady.
She could not believe she was treated like that by someone who was not even in her class but considering all these was for Li Jing, she ignored it and her warm smile returned.
"My apologies. The master placed the law to protect the young miss due to the previous scandals that people have done in order to hurt her," Kai Alix explained in a whisper to Yin Lifen.
She could clearly see the girl’s irritation and knew that her actions had offended her. The last thing she wanted was for Yin Lifen to report it to Li Jing and Li Jing taking action against her, causing her to lose her job.
