After that, it was as if Yu Lili’s luck had decided to change. She just wouldn’t stop winning. At the end of the game, the other ladies were all out of energy and luck.

“I’m not playing anymore!” Qiao Meng pushed the tiles away in annoyance.

“I guess luck is really something not to be given away,” Jiao Ziqing said. “Look, the moment you gave Yu Lili a chance, your luck changed for the worse.”

Yu Lili felt bad about losing, but she didn’t feel good winning either. When she heard that, she said, “I only won because of good luck, but my skills are nowhere near yours.”

“What skills are there to speak of?” Jiao Ziqing said. “This game is all about luck!”

“Forget it. It’s getting late. I’m going to go home and pretend that I’m preparing dinner. You all can continue without me,” Zhuang Yunhua said before taking her leave.

Following that, the others began to leave one after the other.

Jiao Ziqing sighed and commented, “You blame it on luck every time you lose. It’s clearly a case of a lack of skills!”

Her statement stirred up the ire of everyone else present.

Yu Lili couldn’t hold back her smile.

Jiao Ziqing’s face was full of smug satisfaction as she announced, “We’ll play again next time. We’re heading home, too. Bye!”

They left quickly. Yu Lili followed Jiao Ziqing to the car park. On her way, she realized that she had forgotten the car keys. They were probably left in the room upstairs.

Jiao Ziqing had already walked a far distance ahead in her stiletto shoes. Yu Lili wanted to call out to her, but no words came out. What was she to address her as? Auntie? Mom?

Yu Lili quickened her pace and neared the distance. She ventured, “Well…”

Jiao Ziqing continued ahead and didn’t stop.

Yu Lili tried again. “Well… Auntie, I forgot to grab the car keys…” Her voice was clear and reverberated around the empty car park.

Still, Jiao Ziqing’s step didn’t slow. It was as if she hadn’t heard her at all.

Yu Lili was sure that her voice had been loud enough. How was it possible that Jiao Ziqing hadn’t heard her?

Could it be that Ou Ming’s mother can’t recognize my voice?

That thought made Yu Lili feel unsettled. She chased up and called out again, “Well…”

Jiao Ziqing suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Yu Lili. She asked, “Whom were you speaking to this whole way?”

Yu Lili was stunned and replied, “You!”

“Me? Are you sure?” Jiao Ziqing looked sullen.

Yu Lili started to feel exasperated as she wrecked her head wondering what she had done to offend this female despot again.

Jiao Ziqing betrayed a hint of annoyance as she asked, “What did you call me?”

The surprise hit Yu Lili even harder. In a small voice, she ventured, “Mom…”

“What now?” Jiao Ziqing was brimming with impatience. “Speak louder!”

Jiao Ziqing’s tone was fierce, but Yu Lili’s heart was soaring with happiness. Her face broke out in a grin as she said, “The car keys are upstairs. I forgot to grab them.”

Jiao Ziqing harrumphed and replied, “Kingdom would have come by the time I waited for you to remember!” With that, she tossed the keys over. “You’ll drive!”

Yu Lili caught the keys. They were indeed the car keys.

Once Jiao Ziqing had tossed the keys, she turned to get into the car. The image of her back was beautiful. She looked elegant and aloof.

Yu Lili was so elated she could feel the emotion lifting her up. Excitement filled her. She happily called out to Jiao Ziqing’s back, “I’m coming!”

Many times, a person’s mood could hinge on a minute incident. But, this supposedly minute incident wasn’t minute to Yu Lili at all.

After preparing and partaking in dinner, Yu Lili helped Nanny Zhang with the dishes. She was looking forward to returning to her room the entire time.

When she was finally alone with Ou Ming, she pounced on him excitedly and yelled out, “Ou Ming!”
