The dinner table was full with a sumptuous mouth-watering meal. When Tang Xiulan looked at the dishes her heart ached again. Surprisingly , most of the dishes like Spare ribs , pork belly , Buddha jumps over the wall , and many others were her favourite Chinese food in her previous life also coincidentally according to her memory the previous owner also loved this food. She sighed knowing that the table must have been prepared specially for her. She peered at the excited yet busy Dining Table full with the hint of familial warmth. Her Aunt , Xu Zili along with housekeeper Yi and other maids were busy filling the table with dishes Unlike Other rich families which had a serious class hierarchy like the Tang family , where the atmosphere during the dinner time was solemn. Jiang Fenghui and Grandpa Jiang were talking with each other while Jiang Chen was busy showing her, his foreign travelling pictures on his phone. Tang Xiulan liked being here. Like previously she didn’t want to be alone. Unconsciously , she had accepted them as her family.
Finally everyone sat to eat and the dinner was served by the maids. Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Chen sat on either side of her. Grandpa Jiang felt very emotional as it was the first time his only granddaughter shared Tables with him after so many years. He wished he could make her accompany him just like his friend’s granddaughter all the time but it was likely to be impossible. He didn’t want the happiness of being surrounded by his family , the happy time to be short. The tantalizing smell of the dishes waft around the whole table , tickling theirs noses. As the dinner proceeded , Tang Xiulan felt like crying seeing the heap of food on her plate. Jiang Chen and Grandpa Jiang kept giving her food the whole time. Fortunately , Tang Xiulan had a huge appetite she got by eating herbal medicines that she concocted to make her flat body healthy.
Grandpa Jiang was more than happy seeing her eating the food he gave her. He felt very happy thinking that finally Tang Xiulan was killing to be close to them.
After dinner , Jiang Fengwei was asked to go to sleep despite his struggle to accompany the younger generation especially his granddaughter. He wanted to accompany her knowing that she will only stay for today and leave the next day. He wanted to ask her to stay for few more days personally but he didn’t knew how to ask knowing they were not so close. Jiang Fenghui and the others talked him to go to rest because of his health. Although he was fit and fine but he was still a old person who need maximum rest.
Finally seeing how adamant they were , Grandpa Jiang with a extremely reluctant face went to his room to rest. Tang Xiulan felt very bad seeing the old man looking back at each steps as he walked towards his room. In the Living room , The other three people surrounded Tang Xiulan. Although a little uncomfortable with their loving stares , she smiled at them . “ Lan’er Have you thought which university are you going to? “ Jiang Fenghui said as a point to start a conversation to his niece , whom he had not meet for many years and not close to.
Tang Xiulan thought for some time before shaking her head. Truthfully speaking , she had no idea what to do in the future. She is a hacker with no. 1 computer skills but Hacking was just a hobby. She was a doctor in her previous life but it was just a side thing for her Assassin Tasks. All in all she was good in everything but being perfect is boring too and being too good had now became confusing for her to chooses her career. Yes, She loved fighting though. She loved guns, she loved the thrill that the near-death experience gave her. The Adrenaline rush made her feel lively. But She had people to care now , a family to live for! She also doesn’t want to again step in the dirty mud of the Assassin World. She doesn’t want to kill like a killer-machine. She wanted to live with respect . She knew that to get her revenge with her Organization she had to step in the dirty mud. But Maybe she had other choices. She just wanted to get her revenge , even if she died during the process , she just wanted to die with pride.
As they saw her confused face , Jiang Fenghui spoke , “ You could see the Imperial Business University. Its the no. 1 uni. For business aspirants in the whole Country.”
“ Cousin! ,Why don’t to try in the Imperial Art Uni. Your Older Bro. Chen , that is me owns the no.1 Entertainment Agency. In the future , you can be a superstar. “ Jiang Chen interrupted as his casting skills acted up . Xu Zili smacked her son head before glaring at both the father and son. Jiang Chen winced before cradling his head while Jiang Fenghui pursued his lips with a suffered look.
Walking to Tang Xiulan side and sitting next to her , Xu Zili took Xiulan hand softly. Tang Xiulan looked at her small hand enveloped with warmth. Xu Zili smiled at her before looking at the other two. “ Don’t give her stress. She Can do whatever she want to do. Our Lan’er is both a Beauty with Brain. “ Saying that she smiled lovingly at Xuilan. Taking a small package from the side , Xu Zili handed it to Xiulan making her confuse. Looking at her confused face , Xu Zili asked her to open the package.
Tang Xiulan looked at Xu Zili before carefully opening the Delicate package. Her eyes widened with awe as she looked at the beautiful Hair Accessory. The Hairpin had several pink plum blossom shaped flowers beaded with real diamonds , pearls and jade. The intricate Antlers giving it a beautiful look. With one look Xiulan could tell that it was a very expensive hairpin. She raised her head and looked at her Aunt saying a soft “ Thank You.” She always was a fan of hairpins and she loved this at its first glance.

Xu Zili smiled warmly as she caress Xiulan head with love. “ This is designed by your mother . She wanted to make it for you but.... Now it has gone its original owner.” Xu Zili eyes filled with tears as nostalgia hit her. The whole room became silent while Jiang Fenghui also seemed lost in thought.
Jiang Muye and Xu Zili were childhood friends and Jiang Muye was also the wing women of Xu Zili and Fenghui. Both the girls had spent their best days with each other. They were soulmate. When the news of Jiang Muye death came , Xu Zili felt like a part of her heart died. She really missed her. Now seeing her niece and best friend daughter who was 70% replica of Jiang Muye , Xu Zili missed her more. She wished to give Tang Xiulan everything. The love and care she missed due to her mothers absence. But it was fact that they were not close to Tang Xiulan. Xu Zili promised to be close to Tang Xiulan.’ If not for that Tang Changbin , Xiulan could be close to us’ Xu Zili thought as she cursed the adultery couple.
Finally the night dawned , and everyone went to their respective room to sleep. Tang Xiulan walked to the second floor , to her room with the gift box. In one day she found the feeling of being cared and loved , the feeling of having a family and she loved it
