“Why are you still wearing those old clothes?” Su Wen questioned. Her tone was a mix of disbelief and frustration.
“I can wear anything at home!” retorted her sister. To her family, wearing new clothes at home seemed extravagant, especially when there was work to be done. The idea of pampering oneself with new clothes didn’t resonate with them.
They would wear the new clothes when going out.
“But no…” Su Wen sighed, her voice carrying a note of exasperation. “Girls should treat themselves like princesses. Cultivating elegance starts with the little things in life. Look at me,” she gestured to her beautiful dress. ‘Can you see it? Learn from me, okay?”
Su Qing, who were listening nearby. They began to grasp that their elder sister’s change in demeanour was tied to her newfound confidence and self-worth.
The elder sister used to be dull, impatient, shallow, and even selfish. But now, she was like a dazzling pearl, an elegant princess.
Su Wen continued passionately, emphasizing the importance of embracing change. She didn’t notice the man beside her, Zhou Hengyang, watching her intently with admiration and surprise. He saw her transformation, recognizing the treasure she had become.
“Big sister!” called Su Xiu from the kitchen, reminding Su Wen of their agreement to pool family resources. “Don’t give your money to the Fourth sister. Didn’t we agree that the family’s expenses would come from our group? We agreed on it during the first family meeting. I’ve already prepared the money for the Fourth sister to go to school.”
Su Wen reassured her sister that she remembered, and with that, she and Zhou Hengyang set off for their destination.
As they strolled through the village, Zhou Hengyang inquired about their family meeting, clearly feeling left out. “The first family meeting? Why wasn’t I informed? Aren’t I part of the family?” he asked. Su Wen, attempting to divert his attention, offered him a straw hat to shield himself from the sun. He declined, prompting a playful remark from Su Wen about his appearance.
Su Wen muttered under her breath, “Hmph! If you get tanned and don’t look good, I might change my mind.”
Although her voice was soft, Zhou Hengyang heard it. His hearing was exceptional, and he heard her loud and clear. He sneered at Su Wen, his eyes narrowing dangerously. ‘You said you want to change your mind? It seems that my performance last night was not good enough, so you’re feeling bold, right?’
Flustered, Su Wen denied any hidden meaning, attempting to smooth things over with a compliment. She offered a nervous, insincere smile, attempting to please, as she looped her arm through Zhou Hengyang’s. ‘Oh, I said nothing,’ she said. “You are so handsome. I was just wondering if there’s anyone else in the entire Trinity Village who can match your looks.”‘
Zhou Hengyang raised an eyebrow in response. “Just Trinity Village?” he asked.
Su Wen ventured cautiously, “The entire Clear Water County?”
“Only Clearwater County?” he questioned further.
“The whole province.” Su Wen muttered under her breath, he was as scheming as described in the novel.
When she first arrived here, she thought the disparity between the novel and the real person was due to her imagination However, she gradually realized he was more mysterious than that.
Their conversation continued until they reached the brigade headquarters, where a gathering was already underway. Su Wen, without a chair, prepared to stand at the back. However, Zhou Hengyang quickly fetched a stool for her, standing dutifully behind her as the meeting began..
