Chapter 3 - Chapter Three 3 The Hidden talents of Mrs Gu

Lin Meiyin busies herself in the kitchen while Aunt Fei and Gu Chenyu where in the living room.

"She's a sensible girl where did you find her?" she asked.

"It's a long story, we met when we were little " said Gu Chenyu.

"So she's your dream woman" said Aunt Fei.

"Yes" he said with no emotion.

Soon the aroma from the kitchen has surrounded the house.

"Now I get a main point on why she's chubby"Gu Chenyu thought to himself. The aroma of the food was mouth watering.

Dinner was served after a while the table was decorated with mouth watering dishes, Gu Chenyu looked at Lin Meiyin who's cheeks were red his expression was like

"Did you make this?" and her's was like

"I did" Gu Chenyu tastes the roast beef his eyes shimmers.

"This is the best roast beef I've ever tasted bless your hands, I'm impressed" said Aunt Fei.

"Thank you Auntie" Lin Meiyin replies.

"If you want I can make some pork chops for you and bring it with me as well come for dinner" she adds.

"I would love that you're so sweet honey"said Aunt Fei with a smile.

Lin Meiyin nods and looks at Gu Chenyu who was looking at her too.

"By the way how did you two meet?" Aunt Fei asked.

Gu Chenyu looks at his Auntie, "I told you-

"I asked my daughter in law not you give the lady some freedom" Aunt Fei cuts him off. Gu Chenyu pokes Lin Meiyin's waist, "Um it's a really long story we met a long time ago when we were younger, those eyes are what made me remember his face well he saved my life and that's how it all started" said Lin Meiyin.

"It's a good love story I'll have to go now" said Aunt Fei standing up.

Gu Chenyu kept staring at Lin Meiyin "Who really is this woman?" He asked himself trying to study her.

"Have a safe trip home Auntie" said Lin Meiyin waving goodbye to her. Immediately Aunt Fei leaves Lin Meiyin stands up and Gu Chenyu suddenly grabs her hand.

"Mr Gu do you need anything, was my acting skills too poor I can improve next time, I...I...wa..was just a bit nervous" she said.

"Too poor!!! it was perfect " he said to himself.

"How did you come up with the same exact thing I said to her before?" He asked. Lin Meiyin looked into his eyes and there was a bit of emotion in them.

" Um I just thought of it, it was a last minute plan "said Lin Meiyin. The emotions in his eyes faded away and he let's go.

"I'm a bit surprised your cooking skills are impeccable" he said.

"Thanks well I used to prepare dishes like this for Zihan- uh Gu Zihan but he never seemed to like them I'll be going to my room now"said Lin Meiyin.

"You did a great job convincing my Auntie have a good night "he said gesturing for her to go away.

"Okay Mr Gu "she said leaving.

Gu Chenyu watches her leave and he lips form a faint arc, then he remembers her words about Gu Zihan. "Son of a b*****" he said grinding her teeth, as his grip on the table tightened.

Lin Meiyin goes to room and closes her eyes and then she remembers what happened downstairs. "Mr Gu is such a good actor, he can make a woman fall for him" she said looking at herself in the mirror and then she measures her waist.

"I've done a good job so far at least I'm not so huge like before just a little more and I'll find myself back"she said turning around looking at the extra layers of fat on her waist and poking it.

Lin Meiyin opens the drawer and opens a note book there was a music piece written inside. ( Yeah she was a musician)

The name was Heartbroken tears by the spring she takes a pen and continues writing.

**************

"It's been a month and she just disappears so you think she's dead?" Lin Xuewei asked.

"I don't know " said Gu Zihan placing his hand on her shoulders.

"Zihan I remember her meeting with a man recently she must have ran away with him" said Lin Xuewei.

"So there was someone else and she dared to act like the victim " said Gu Zihan.

Lin Xuewei's eyes were pitiful again and she hugs him.

"I'm sorry she told me not to tell you, and I didn't want to ruin things for you yet" said Lin Xuewei.

"Why are you still thinking about her, I don't care about that let's think about a good life without that pig and look towards our future with our daughter " he said placing his hand on her belly.

"I love you Zihan and I'm here for you" she said wrapping her arms around his neck and they share a kiss.

Lin Meiyin was working out in her room when Aunt Chu knocks on the door.

"Mrs Lu , Master Lu got you this dress it's for tonight's dinner with Mrs Lu Fei " she said holding a box.

"Okay just leave it on the bed thanks I'll try it on later" she replies.

"I'll leave you to work out then" said Aunt Chu leaving and closing the door.

Lin Meiyin looks at the violin in the corner and decides to finish her piece.

She had worked so hard preparing snacks for Aunt Fei that time passed by in the blink of an eye she looks at the clock, Half past Five.

"Oh no I'm going to be late"she said dashing into the bathroom.

"Hoo.....this is it" she said looking at herself in the mirror and taking a deep breath it was a purple dress that had a turtle neck, and golden designs on the skirt.

Aunt Chu comes into the room

"Mrs Lu your beauty can't hide, it looks good on you" said Aunt Chu.

Lin Meiyin nods "Thank you" she said.

"Master Gu is waiting for you downstairs" she said.

"I'll be down in a sec" said Lin Meiyin putting on some perfume and she puts on her coat and goes downstairs. Gu Chenyu was in the living room looking at his watch and he looks up, "What's happening to her is it me or does she get beautiful by the day" he thought to himself.

"I'm ready thank you for the dress" she said holding a small gift bag in her hand. Gu Chenyu looks at her "What's in there?" He asked his gaze falling in the little bag.

"I promised that I'll bring some snacks for Auntie it would be rude to forget"she said with innocent eyes. Gu Chenyu gives her a side glance. "Just get into the car for God sake Lin Meiyin" he said with an annoyed look.

Aunt Fei's house was outstanding and elegant Lin Meiyin's eyes widened.

"It's a beautiful house with vast land I like this kind of place " she said.

"Let's go in" said Gu Chenyu placing his hand on her waist and leading her inside.

"Can you not hold me there I get a shockwave anytime you hold me there " she said.

Gu Chenyu frowns and the holds her hand, his warm rough hand on her soft fleshy hand.

It felt ticklish. Lin Meiyin looks at the paintings in the wall and clicked her tongue. Aunt Fei really has good taste,

"It's my favorite daughter in law " came Aunt Fei's voice.

"Hello Auntie " said Emma with a bright smile and then she gives her the snacks.

"I brought you some homemade snacks I made earlier" said Lin Meiyin

"Thank you let's go have dinner you came right on time" said Aunt Fei says.

A maid takes Gu Chenyu and Lin Meiyin's coat and they follow Aunt Fei to the dinning table.

During dinner Aunt Fei kept talking about the past and how important David was to her.

"Meiyin why are you eating only the salad?" Aunt Fei suddenly asked.

"Um I'm on a diet"said Lin Meiyin with red cheeks.

"I like you this way"said Aunt Fei.

"Um this isn't the real me I became like this because I had surgery when I was fourteen, I donated my kidney to my sister so I plan on loosing some weight"said Lin Meiyin.

"Okay whatever you want"said Aunt Fei.

Lin Meiyin nods, "I understand she wants to keep her man"she adds. The place becomes tense and Lin Meiyin starts choking Gu Chenyu pats her back immediately and gives her a glass of water to drink.

"Aunt Fei Meiyin gets shy easily don't tease her like that"said Gu Chenyu

"What is it bad to say the truth she wants to stay sexy for you so you wouldn't feel tired and dump her for someone else" said Aunt Fei .

Lin Meiyin's cheeks turn red Gu Chenyu smiles and she steps on his foot.

"Watching a young couple is fun it reminds me of the old times"she said.

The torturing dinner was done and they were all drinking tea in the courtyard when Lin Meiyin sees a piano, "Are you lover of music Auntie?" Lin Meiyin asked.

"Yes it belonged to my sister she loved to play music I wonder why her son didn't take after her"said Aunt Fei with a sneer. Gu Chenyu frowns "Um can I play a piece?" Lin Meiyin asked.

"Sure go on" said Aunt Fei, Lin Meiyin stands up and then sits down she closes her eyes and relaxes herself with a sigh she played with the keys. Gu Chenyu who was with his tablet stopped as he heard the melody flowing from the piano, Aunt Fei's mouth was wide open as she places her hand on her chest.

Gu Chenyu stopped and then looks at the busy figure playing elegantly something flashed past his eyes.
