Mr. Li is Chinese and does business in Malaysia.
Qin Sishi shook her head. Then how am I supposed to marry him? I'm in Shanghai.
- Mr. Li said he'll settle in China after the wedding.
What about his business?
- He'll naturally move it here.
And his family? His mother?
- She lives in Fujian. It would be convenient to look after her after returning to China.
You're not expecting me to live with him in Fujian, are you?
- Of course not. The marital home has been bought near your teahouse.
Qin Sishi sighed. Her grandfather had left her this ridiculous marriage arrangement before he died.
She had never even met Mr. Li. He was practically playing matchmaker at random.
After the wedding, the housekeeper kept telling her how wonderful Mr. Li was,
steady and reliable in business, with looks and character beyond reproach.
As Qin Sishi brewed a pot of tea, she said quietly, "Mr. Li isn't interested in women."
In the late spring rain, a man who had just reached the eaves heard her words and discreetly lowered his black umbrella.
That night, Qin Sishi took back what she had said about him not being interested in women.
And came to a new conclusion.
Mr. Li was simply very well dressed.
