Gao Chen obeyed the orders of his elders and stepped forward to kowtow to Lin Wei Xi. Kowtowing was considered a very formal etiquette, and only the elders and high-ranking elders could afford it. In the previous life, although Lin Wei Xi was the eldest sister, but she was the same generation as Gao Chen, she could not afford a kowtow. But now, Lin Wei Xi was sitting steadily, watching Gao Chen knock his head strongly three times.

Her eyes were fixed on Gao Chen's movements, there seemed to be a dark vortex deep in her eyes. After Gao Chen knocked his head, he hadn't heard the voice calling him to get up for a long time. Gao Chen was puzzled. He still kept the kowtow posture and didn't dare to get up. Gao second lady was originally smiling, but she was a little surprised when she saw this. Isn't it the first time Yan Wangfei has seen Gao Chen? Where did Gao Chen being inappropriate? Why does the Wangfei look at him like this?

After a short period of stiffness, Wan Yue gently called Lin Wei Xi from behind: "Wangfei?"

Lin Wei Xi returned to her senses, lowered her eyes, and indifferently glanced at the boy who had almost his whole body attached to the ground, and said without joy or anger, "Get up."

Lin Wei Xi's voice was not harsh, but also didn't show any like. When Gao Chen came today, his mother and his wet nurse asked him to perform well, and it would be best if he get the favor of Yan Wangfei.

Han shi's daughter was the daughter-in-law under Lin Wei Xi's name, and in the future her son might have to rely on Yan Wang to get official position and even the title. Of course, she did not dare to offend Lin Wei Xi, and even hoped to please this young, rumored to be very favored by Yan Wang, consort. Han shi's original intention was very good. A noble little boy like Gao Chen had been raised well since childhood, white and tender, with red lips and white teeth. Which madam didn't like it? Moreover, Lin Wei Xi had not given birth yet, so she must like this kind cheerful boy the most, so Han shi privately thought that as long as Gao Chen didn't make some indecent or annoying behaviors, Lin Wei Xi had no reason to dislike Gao Chen.

Before Gao Chen went out, his mother told him what he should and should not do, and on the journey he was told again by his grandmother and aunt. He also knew that the madam he would meet today was very unusual, so he was very careful along the way. After seeing Lin Wei Xi, Gao Chen was shocked. This was the madam he should cautiously fawning on? She was so young, she looked like his sister's generation.

But no matter what Gao Chen thought, he dared not show it. Instead, he showed his usual style of pleasing his grandmother and father. His kowtow and paying respect was natural and yet childish and cute, ensuring that everyone would smile and praise when they saw him. In the past, this was how he won the rewards from the madams who came to the Duke Mansion, but today, his forehead had been knocked on the floor for a long time, and he didn't see the honorable Wangfei speaking. Gao Chen didn't dare to raise his head, and could only maintain his original posture, his hands and face were firmly on the ground. Inside the room the subtle fragrance were floating, the beautiful and radiant young Wangfei sat tall, and he knelt thoughtfully on the ground, Gao Chen suddenly felt a sense of humbleness.

Unknown how long, it was probably not that long, but for Gao Chen it seemed to be a lifetime. Lin Wei Xi's pleasant to hear voice that was like golden jade flowing water sounded, the end of her words casually enticing: "Get up."

Only then did Gao Chen dared to get up from the ground carefully. This short period of time, it made Gao Chen respected and feared the brilliance Wangfei in front of him. He didn't even dare to look directly. He realized once again that he was just a shu-born, and compared with such a noble lady, he was just cloud of mud and he was ashamed of himself.
