His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 908

Chapter 908 - The Appointed Time Has Come

There was still about ten minutes left before the appointed time indicated on the invitation. Most of the guests arrived well before that. They didn’t know who else were invited to the event but they were sure that not everybody had arrived yet.

"Dear Xiulan’s father and mother aren’t here yet," Huang Yuyan said as she looked around the parlour.

Her eyes met with Madam Feng Wan and her three posh friends, including the Chief of Police. They smiled and nodded at each other. All of them were acquainted and moved in similar circles in high society. They weren’t close in any way but they were still friendly to each other whenever they met in social gatherings. Ever since Iris Long came into their lives, their encounters had become more frequent and that contributed to them becoming even friendlier with each other.

"I’m sure that they’ll arrive soon," Grandma Li replied. "I don’t believe that Liwei and Xiulan didn’t invite her parents."

"You’re right, Mother. I’m just a little worried because it’s almost the appointed time."

"Don’t always worry about things that you can’t control, Yuyan."

"Yes, Mother. I’ll try."

At that moment, the door to the parlour opened. Long Tengfei and his wife Yang Jiahui entered, followed by Cai Guang. They swept their gazes across the room. When they saw Grandpa Lu’s group, Long Tengfei led his wife and assistant straight to them.

The greetings followed. Grandpa Lu’s booming voice was the most distinct sound in the room.

"Hello Madam Li and Madam Huang," Yang Jiahui greeted as she sat across the two madam Jins.

"Madam Yang, it’s a pleasure to see you again," Huang Yuyan replied. "Where is your lovely niece?"

"Xiao Mei is already here but I haven’t seen her yet. She left the house at dawn to help Xiulan and Liwei with the preparations. At least, that’s what she told me."

Huang Yuyan nodded. "It’s the same with my younger son. Chonglin should’ve also been here since dawn."

"Those children are really secretive," Grandma Li said. "We still don’t know what this event is all about. We haven’t seen any of them yet. The butler or any of the other staff here won’t tell us anything either. Even this old gorilla beside me is unable to intimidate them into telling the truth."

"Who’re you calling an old gorilla, you old hag?" Grandpa Lu interjected in the middle of his conversation with Long Tengfei and Cai Guang. "Which part of me looks like a gorilla? Tell me, I want to know!"

Grandma Li gave him a cold snort before ignoring him. She resumed her conversation with her fellow ladies.
