C185 Fake Apology
After walking through the long and narrow cobblestone road in the greenhouse, Soong Shiyan's favorite spot was the cherry blossom forest.
Cherry blossoms flourished, as if there was a pink sky overhead. Occasionally, a cherry blossom rain would drift across the verdant grass. Under the white European style palace umbrella, a row of long, milky-white tables were filled with exquisite and luxurious tableware. The plate was filled with all kinds of pastries and was extremely exquisite. Just looking at them made one's appetite rise. The aroma of coffee lingered at the tip of everyone's nose, lingering on the aftertaste.
Noble Miss, who had been invited, was originally sitting in her seat. She had gathered in groups of three or five and was talking about something. Seeing that Soong Shiyan had already arrived, Noble Miss stood up one by one with a smile full of propriety. She greeted Soong Shiyan politely, "Miss Jing Sung, hello —"
She gracefully stood in front of the chairs, looking at Noble Miss on both sides of the table. With an apologetic expression, she said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry — I was the one who initiated this tea party, but I didn't expect that I would be late. I hope the sisters won't take offense against me."
When everyone heard the word "sister", they felt extremely honored. How could they be angry at Soong Shiyan?
"Miss Jing Sung, where did you say that? You are busy with the company's affairs, so naturally the trip will be packed. How can you be as carefree as us? "
"Isn't it? It is already an honor for us to be invited by Miss Jing Sung in her busy life. "
"Miss Jing Sung, quickly sit down!"
… ….
The way these ladies treated her and Soong Shiyan, the way they treated them, was like a heaven in the heavens and a earth in the earth. However, this tea ceremony was held in Soong Family Great House, and these women actually did not give the host a shred of face.
The Noble Miss seated here, their families, were all well-known figures in A City. But now, Soong Shiyan had the support of a powerful clan like Huo Family. Not only did these famous thousand gold stars not dare to provoke them, they even had to go to great lengths to curry favor with them. After all, Soong Shiyan was Heir of the Huo Family in name, and they did not dare imagine the consequences of offending a Huo Family.
The servant pulled out a chair for Soong Shiyan. Only then did Soong Shiyan slowly sit down. Seeing that Soong Shiyan had sat down, the others followed her and sat down as well. As for Yan Duoya, she was naturally sitting right next to Soong Shiyan.
Seeing Yan Duoya sitting beside Soong Shiyan, although Noble Miss was unhappy in her heart, she already had a plan in her heart. Therefore, she didn't have any big reactions. After all, even though the tea ceremony was hosted by Soong Shiyan, the location was Soong Family Great House. Therefore, Noble Miss and the others were well aware of this. Although Soong Shiyan and Yan Duoya didn't have a good time at Zheng Jinghao's birthday party, judging from the current situation, the two of them had probably become friends.
Soong Shiyan sat down and took a sip of her coffee before she said at a leisurely pace, "I believe all of you can guess why I invited my sisters here for a gathering today."
Hearing this, these people from Noble Miss's group calmly used their eyes to communicate with each other. However, they remained silent and waited for Soong Shiyan's next words.
"I heard that a few days ago, Miss Soong and the other young ladies had a dispute with each other, and it was quite unpleasant." Soong Shiyan looked around at the crowd and said leisurely.
As for the others, although their families weren't as prominent as the others, they were still invited by Soong Shiyan to this tea party. However, Yan Duoya was too inhumane. She probably still held a grudge and arranged for her to sit at the seat furthest from Soong Shiyan.
Hearing that, everyone fell silent. They didn't know what Soong Shiyan was up to.
"Basically, everyone lives in A city. Even if they are not in A city, they should know about this. Half a year ago, Miss Soong's father had died from an illness. Due to the sudden turn of events, as well as the fact that Miss Soong and her father had grown up relying on each other, Miss Soong had never been able to accept this fact. Actually, Miss Soong had been receiving psychological treatment in secret this past half a year, and had finally improved slightly recently. A few days ago, Miss Soong's behavior was indeed a bit inappropriate — "Soong Shiyan slowly said as she turned the coffee cup on the table.
Upon hearing these words, Noble Miss and the others who were silent a moment ago immediately burst into a flurry of discussion.
Yan Duoya looked at Soong Shiyan in surprise. Seeing this, Soong Shiyan smiled at her, indicating that she did not need to worry. Only then did she feel slightly more at ease. Lin Lang and Tiankui sat to the side, quietly eating the exquisite pastries on the table. Although Noble Miss did not know Tiankui, she did not say anything when she saw that she had followed Soong Shiyan.
"In this circle, even though it's big, it's still small. "As long as anything happens, everyone will meet face to face. If this conflict is not resolved yet, when we meet again, we will be in an awkward situation. Therefore, Miss Soong wants to use this opportunity to talk to everyone." After saying that, Soong Shiyan nodded at Yan Duoya. After that, she sat there and enjoyed the delicious pastries.
Seeing this, Yan Duoya stood up and looked at the crowd. With an apologetic expression, she said, "Everyone, Jing Sung has already told you about it just now." A while ago, I was under a lot of stress and was receiving treatment from a psychiatrist. I originally wanted to hide this matter from everyone, but they misunderstood me, so I had to say it out loud. Today, here, I sincerely apologize, and I hope you will forgive me for my previous impolite actions. "
Yan Duoya was on the verge of tears as she spoke. She reached out and pretended to wipe the tears from her eyes. However, her eyes were secretly sizing up everyone's reactions.
Everyone looked at Yan Duoya with some disdain, but also some amusement. Don't think they didn't recognize that Yan Duoya was calling out Jing Sung's name, not "Miss Jing Sung" — did this woman really think that they would treat her as they treated Jing Sung if they had formed a relationship with her? How funny!
Although these Noble Miss's were filled with loathing, they still maintained a calm expression on their faces, waiting for Yan Duoya's next reaction.
Seeing this, Yan Duoya knew that her words might not be good enough, so she continued, "Everyone knows, last time at Zheng Jinghao's and Young Master Zheng's birthday party, Jing Sung and I had some conflicts. But Jing Sung, she really is a very good, very kind person. Not only had she forgiven me, but she had made friends with me. I feel that if everyone here could understand my situation, they would probably be like Jing Sung and wouldn't hate me anymore. "
Hearing this, Soong Shiyan couldn't help but laugh. This Yan Duoya was truly lacking in regards to dealing with people! Now that he had gathered these Noble Miss and Noble Miss here, she didn't reflect on her previous actions and sincerely apologized. Instead, she even used her identity to suppress these Noble Miss. As the saying goes, a person with a high and mighty identity like Heir of the Huo Family's, how many people in Noble Miss's class wouldn't buy it?
Yan Duoya thought that as long as she was pulled out, these Noble Miss's would be able to truly forgive her and even flatter and flatter her. Indeed, on the surface, these Noble Miss would please her as Yan Duoya wished and satisfy her vanity. But in private, they might not even know where they would meet. They might even be planning on how to teach Yan Duoya a lesson.
Soong Shiyan was naturally willing to watch such a good show. She put down the pastries in her hands, looked at the people around her, and leisurely said, "Everyone, Miss Soong has sincerely apologized to you. If you don't agree, not only will you not give Miss Soong face, but you won't give me, Jing Sung, any face either. Of course, this is not that important. The most important thing is that all of you have completely thrown away the etiquette of the upper class. If word of this got out, wouldn't it make people laugh? "
Hearing that, everyone looked at each other, then a plain looking woman smiled at Soong Shiyan and said, "Miss Jing, where did you say those words? How could we be angry at Miss Soong? "However, Miss Soong's' apology 'came a bit too suddenly, catching everyone off guard — Sisters, what did I say?"1
The woman who spoke was the daughter of a high official, Suen Enxin. She was a low-key person with a sense of affinity. She had a good reputation in the 'A' society and could be called the leader of the 'A' circle. For Yan Duoya to be able to offend such a low-key person, it was obvious how hateful she was for what she had done.
Now that Suen Enxin had spoken, the Noble Miss girls who had taken her as their leader all chimed in, saying that they had forgiven Yan Duoya and wanted to make friends with her and get along with her in the future.
Their faces were filled with smiles as they chatted amiably with Yan Duoya.
Yan Duoya was sitting in her original position as she proudly received the greetings from Noble Miss. It could be said that she was overjoyed and overjoyed. Occasionally, she would think highly of herself and give Noble Miss and the others face, but because Soong Shiyan was here, everyone dared not to say anything.
Soong Shiyan looked at the expressions of the crowd. Their brimming smiles concealed their loathing for Yan Duoya. She smiled with satisfaction.
"I was right, we are all friendly people. In the future, please take care of each other. Everyone, don't be so restrained — Soong Family Palace's buildings are extremely famous. If Shiyan, you don't mind, you can bring everyone to take a look around, and it will be a good thing for you to do your host's duty as well. " Soong Shiyan said with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone felt that Soong Shiyan's words made a lot of sense. Sitting around greeting was not a good pastime. Although the dessert prepared by Michelin's three star chef was delicious, everyone regretted it deeply when they thought of the amount of heat it brought. Thus, they all agreed to take a look around.
Yan Duoya was given a chance to show off, which she happily agreed to, of course. She led the group, walked around, and took a look at the scenery inside Soong Family Great Mansion.
