Therefore, her Mandarin is not good.<\/p>\n<p>Willow&#8217;s mother-in-law and husband are dealing with the hares. And Willow is chatting with Lily and Louis, telling them where is worth going and what delicious food they should try.<\/p>\n<p>Lily and Willow have a lot to talk about.<\/p>\n<p>Lily asks Willow, &#8220;I smell perfume from you. Do you like wearing perfume?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I like perfume. I bought some famous brands,&#8221; Willow says, &#8220;However, my husband likes this one, so I barely use the others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily takes out a sample from her bag and sprays it on Willow&#8217;s wrist.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Try this one.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Willow rubs her ear with her wrist and sniffs it, saying in surprise, &#8220;It smells good. What brand is it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a new product of our company, which is not on the market. We come here to shoot a promotional video for it.&#8221; Lily smiles and hands her the perfume, &#8220;This is yours since you like it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank you. It smells good.&#8221; Willow takes the perfume and says, &#8220;It will sell well! When it comes on the market, I will promote it for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alright, thank you.&#8221; Lily smiles and nods.<\/p>\n<p>She picks up the black tea and takes a few sips. Seeing that Louis is using his phone to work, she thinks, &#8216;He&#8217;s busy. I should have made an excuse not to go out, so that he can go back to his room and work.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Soon, dinner is ready.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the large bowl of stewed hare meat, Lily doesn&#8217;t dare to eat it at first.<\/p>\n<p>After eating a piece and finding that the cooking skill of Willow&#8217;s mother-in-law is excellent, she eats more.<\/p>\n<p>Having eaten two bowls of rice, Lily wants more.<\/p>\n<p>Louis stops her and his face darkens, &#8220;You&#8217;ve eaten two bowls of rice. Aren&#8217;t you stuffed?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not stuffed. I can eat more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis is afraid that it&#8217;s not good for her health, but he doesn&#8217;t want to show his concern about her. So, he says, &#8220;The shooting is tomorrow. People look fat before the camera. If you continue to eat, you may look much fatter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis succeeds.<\/p>\n<p>Lily looks at the half pot of stewed hare meat, turning her eyes away and putting down the bowl, &#8220;I&#8217;m full.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Willow is overjoyed, &#8220;Mr. Smith, you care about Ms. Lily! Why did you break up? You should try to get back together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Louis keeps a poker face as he replies in a casual tone, &#8220;I don&#8217; want her to delay the shooting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily lowers her head, putting slices of apple into his mouth.<\/p>\n<p>After dinner, Louis says that he&#8217;s not accustomed to wearing the slippers provided by the homestay family. And he goes shopping for the slippers.<\/p>\n<p>Willow and Lily are walking and chatting around the homestay family. Then, Willow gives Lily the &#8216;Sleeping Flower&#8217;, which is peculiar to City L, telling her to put it on the bedside table to help her sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Kicked twice by the babies, Lily frowns.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s wrong?&#8221; Willow asks her.<\/p>\n<p>They happen to be standing under a street lamp. Lily takes away her hand from her belly soon. However, Willow still notices Lily&#8217;s baby bump.<\/p>\n<p>Then, Willow Looks at Lily&#8217;s face and seems to have guessed something. She widens her eyes, saying, &#8220;You&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nothing. I ate too much.&#8221; Lily smiles with embarrassment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you get kicked for eating too much? Did the baby kick you, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Willow doesn&#8217;t buy it. She suddenly realizes something, &#8220;No wonder you asked me how many months I was pregnant in the car. It turns out that you are pregnant, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily nods when seeing that she can&#8217;t hide it from Willow, &#8220;I&#8217;m pregnant. Please mum&#8217;s the word. I&#8217;m afraid that once they know that I&#8217;m pregnant, they&#8217;ll be too careful and delay the shooting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The man is dressed in grey casual wear, his legs long and straight and his temperament excellent. However, the dark circles under his eyes show that he didn&#8217;t sleep well.<\/p>\n<p>Lily thinks, &#8216;Did he stay up late last night?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>When Louis comes over and sits down for breakfast, Lily says, &#8220;Director Jarvis borrowed two vans from Willow. We&#8217;ll go to the shooting site together at nine o&#8217;clock.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Okay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Looking at Louis, Lily can&#8217;t help but ask, &#8220;Did you work late last night? You don&#8217;t look well. How about telling Director Jarvis that we&#8217;ll go there in the afternoon?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No need.&#8221; Louis refuses, &#8220;I&#8217;m fine. I&#8217;ll be able to get some rest if we finish early.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily doesn&#8217;t say anything.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after, the waiter places Louis\u2019 beef noodles on the table.<\/p>\n<p>Lily hands the sauce to Louis. When Louis stretches out his hand, Lily notices that there are several cuts on it.<\/p>\n<p>She hesitates for a while, and she doesn&#8217;t say anything. After breakfast, she goes upstairs to change her clothes.<\/p>\n<p>A cleaner is going out of Lily&#8217;s room, pushing a cart.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ms. Lily,&#8221; The cleaner says, &#8220;The thing is on your bedside table.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily thinks that it may be fruit, so she thanks the cleaner.<\/p>\n<p>She enters her bedroom, seeing a small box rather than fruit on the bedside table.<\/p>\n<p>She picks it up and opens it.<\/p>\n<p>There is a pair of small daisy earrings embedded in the velvet. It seems to be the one that she took a fancy to in the shop but was sold to the couple at a higher price last night.<\/p>\n<p>With a closer look, Lily finds that the little daisies are not delicate enough and their petals are crooked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It seems to be made by a beginner, not the one in the shop yesterday.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2392","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2392","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
