OPEN YOUR MASK, PRINCESS!
Episode 189 VIEWING FROM A DISTANCE
The morning that kept a different story from Li An, everything was still difficult he believed as if only a beautiful dream had not awakened him. A series of cosmetics presented by his new sister he opened the seal and tried it, with great care he applied moisturizer on his smooth face. Li An has a basic white skin healthy hue so it looks bright even without polish. But when she was like yesterday, the value of her facial beauty increased.
The bell in his room rang just as he finished his makeup trial and error, the result was quite good even though it was not as good as the hands of professionals. He tidied up his beautiful equipment before welcoming someone outside.
“I've guessed it must be you.” Li An smiled to find Xiao Jun the first guest. He did wait for his sister's arrival and was reluctant to go anywhere before the man came.
“Kakak already ate?” xiao Jun asked, he came carrying a few large plastic bags filled with snacks.
Li An shook her head but her lips extended a smile. “I'm used to eating irregularly, so my stomach hasn't adjusted to a new diet. What do you bring so much Jun?” Li An took the initiative of partially picking up Xiao Jun's fist and got a straight answer after seeing the contents of the plastic bag.
“Then we have lunch outside now, brother is neat also dear only in the room.”
Li An asserted the invitation with a nod, he took the new bag that Xiao Jun bought yesterday and put the phone in it. Just a cell phone that he had as a valuable item. They headed downtown, Xiao Jun took him to a famous Japanese restaurant.
“Can't you play your phone yet? Anything to teach?” xiao Jun asked attentively as if he was in the position of an older brother who was guarding his sister.
“I utak atik all night, it feels like it can all. Your number is kubikin in a quick call, wherever the contacts in my phone are only your number and uncle Lau.” Said Li An giggling, this world feels so small to him. Only a handful of people could be counted on the fingers he knew and interacted with.
“Good. Let's try this cooking, I think you like it. After this, I take my sister to one place.”
Li An stared at the bowl of ramen with a topping that was full and looked tantalizing. He was a fan of noodles and Xiao Jun still remembered even though many years had passed. But Xiao Jun's invitation this time made him a little anxious, yesterday his sister also said like that then he was taken to the office and caught the perverted actions of Chen Kho in broad daylight. He was afraid that this invitation would also hurt his heart, he was not ready to get hurt again.
“Where? I don't want to go to that office anymore. You go there, I wait at the hotel.” Reject Li An weakly.
Xiao Jun smiled for a moment before revealing his answer, apparently yesterday's events had been going so deep. She believes her brother harbors a very deep love for the jerk, unfortunately the love for the wrong person is certainly painful by walking on suffering and the wrong path.
“No, I won't take you there again. Believe me, brother must be happy to the place I invite later.”
Li An was still in disbelief, he wanted anticipation before he could not dodge. “Jawab go first, let me know the destination before leaving.”
Xiao Jun gave up on the women, whoever he was sure of when dealing with women, he had to expand his heart to accommodate patience. Her brother had a high alert attitude and had to be convinced before taking her.
“To where mom is. Brother wants to meet mom?” said Xiao Jun, the surprise that he prepared was in fact void. He fails to make a haru scene when Li An meets an unexpected mother.
Both of Li An's eyeballs sparkled, he stared at Xiao Jun's statement. Without the need for an answer, it was clear what he wanted. Which child refused to meet a mother who had been separated forcibly for years, he could not wait to be accelerated to spend a large bowl of ramen that was still hot.

Grace walked away following the steps of her servant, who forced the servant to lead her to where Xin Er was. The servant took him to the servant's house, where all the servants of the mansion lived. Grace still can't believe, there's this complicated story of the person she loves. The pedigree that was difficult to explain, now he could slightly understand Xiao Juns cold attitude towards him. There's a big difference between them, Grace grew up happy with the parents who gave birth and raised her. Compared to Xiao Jun who turned out to be the son of a great master servant, his father betrayed him and caused suffering for Xiao Jun's mother and sister. Since then forced to change clans, forced to admit
others as parents. Just imagining it makes Grace goosebumps, she will not be as strong as she is in that position.
“Didn't aunt Xin Er work in the grand mistress pavilion. Why did you take me to the server mess?” Grace hesitated when the maid declared the place in plain sight that Xin Er was now. He thought they were heading somewhere else from the Liang Jia pavilion.
“Nona, at this hour usually aunt Xin Er breaks. He didn't serve the big lady all day. Do we need to enter miss?” this servant was confident that his analysis was correct, Xin Er must have been inside.
Grace hesitated for a moment, on the other side of her heart she was so curious about how the real mother of her future husband was, but on one side it was hard to step in. He was confused about what to do when he met, immediately introduced himself? Or patiently waiting for Xiao Jun to introduce him? Then what if Xiao Jun was unwilling to open up to him and continue to make that fact a secret?
“Yes already, we're in. You go first.” Grace's orders, she doesn't have the confidence to lead the way yet.
His servant obeyed Grace's orders by continuing her step deeper. The leaflet on Grace's chest was rumbling, it was unclear why the fear was so great. Grace felt her hair and noticed the clothes she was wearing. Fortunately she was wearing a rather covered dress, unlike yesterday which was like a woman
without self-respect.
An old woman walked out from inside the house, the figure was well known by the maid who was with Grace. “Nona, that's aunt Xin Er.” The waiter pointed at the old woman who was carrying a bucket of clothes to dry.
Grace immediately put a vision on the figure, a woman who looks tired and limped with a simple appearance without makeup and crowned gray. He continued to stare at her without blinking, noticing Xin Er's slow and limped movements.
“Stop! Don't bother him.” Grace forbade her servants to go any further, preferably their whereabouts were unknown to Xin Er.
Grace was more comfortable staring at Xin Er from a distance, her heartbeat starting to return to normal. The woman at a glance had seen the kindness of his heart that radiated from the serene furrow of his face. Grace observed Xin Er who was drying her clothes sluggishly, she frowned anxiously as if the woman was easily tired or her hands were underpowered.
Xin Er coughed as she changed position from taking clothes to standing up. Cough it continuously until it makes fatigue regulate breath. Grace seemed very sad to hear the sound of coughing, she almost approached if she was late in controlling herself to remain silent as a spectator. A woman as old as that is left to serve the twilight period with a punishment that separates from the child who should have cared for her. Grace was touched, she could be wild, spoiled, but she had a heart that could not hurt her parents.
Sorry, Auntie .. for now I can only see you from afar. You don't know me yet, I don't want to scare you. Auntie, if Xiao Jun had allowed me to take you and take care of you. I swear I will fight for your freedom with uncle after I marry Xiao Jun.
