Someone feels cold with the wind blowing in the Flower House.
Jenny feels her heart suddenly sink down.
Luke really has an engagement with Sky.
Mrs. Lu seems to know what Jenny is thinking about, so she smiles, “Don’t think too much. The engagement is set by Luke’s grandpa. And Luke’s father’s marriage was also set by him, but what a terrible marriage they have. So before he died, he agreed that the engagement could be annulled.”
Jenny pauses for a moment, and then hesitates, “Officially invalid? Will they agree?”
“I communicate with the Song family at the beginning. And they are very open-minded. We both agree that.”
Jenny is a little relieved after hearing Mrs. Lu’s words. Since Mrs. Lu has communicated with the Sky family, now the engagement is annulled.
But she wonders why Michael talks to herself so much since the engagement is invalid. Sky should have told him about all things. Does Sky not want to give up the engagement?
It seems that Sky asks Michael to talk with me.
“Please don’t worry. Now that I want you to marry Luke, then I will arrange all things right for you. What you need to do is to be a beautiful bride. I have picked up several wedding dresses for you. You can try them on when Luke comes back.”
When talking about the wedding dress, Jenny suddenly feels excited. Then she nods and goes inside the house with Mrs. Lu to take a rest.
Now the Flower House is like her home, and she feels very comfortable and warm here.
At night, for the first time during these days, she stays in the room alone.
After she emerges from the shower, she habitually asks, "Luke, where's the hair dryer?"
There is no reply for a long time.
She turns doubtfully to look at the sofa, where there is only her down jacket, and the corner of the hair dryer poking out from under it.
Jenny knows that Luke's bedroom is very big, but today, she suddenly feels that it is especially big. She seems to hear her own echo when she says a word and no one answers.
She hears the ticking of water where she stands there.
It is dripping from the ends of her hair. She doesn't know how long she has been standing. And there has been a large water stain on the wooden floor.
She looks down and feels relieved.
Looking at the water stains on the floor and laughing at her imagination, she wipes her hair with a towel, then takes the hair dryer from the sofa and goes into the bathroom to blow her hair.
She sees her pretty face in the round glass mirror, and her figure is fine, but her shoulders look rounder than before, because the food in Flower House is so good that she has not controlled her eating for a long time.
There is only a question mark beside the red one, and there is no other explanation.
Jenny hesitates for a moment and decides to skip the question.
She isn't looking for a households. And Bill does not seem to have anything to do with her.
Then she looks at the details below.
Alex’s marriage is set by Mr. Lu and his comrades. Alex does not love his wife very much. It seems that Alex is not interested in women.
On Beijing national congress, Yuky, Luke’s cousin, said that Jin’s Wine has problem in its wine quality. And she has a very good relationship with Tracy. Although they are different in age, they are like sisters. So, she is invited to all parties held by the Lu family.
All Jenny has to do is to make Luke to take her to parties like that and get to know Yuky.
She needs to know what had happened, and that why Yuky has mentioned Jin’s Wine at the Beijing conference, and who has told her about it.
This is the most important information in Frankie’s email. The rest are about Lu’s Family, which is not very useful to her.
After turning off her notebook, she sits on the bed for a long time, but unable to sleep.
