When dawn broke, Qiu Zhixuan led Yu Ze downstairs for a walk in the sun, only to run into Li Zhi, who seemed not to have slept at all the previous night.
It was evident that the words spoken by her older brother before he left had driven Li Zhi to a dead end; her eyes were worn down by her burdens, yet it was more obvious the disturbance caused by Feng Chengjin last night brought even greater harm to her.
In that exchanged glance, Li Zhi's look at Qiu Zhixuan was filled with complexities: jealousy, despair, trembling, all of it, yet more evident was a kind of unspoken envy and pain among women.
Qiu Zhixuan's bedroom was beneath Li Zhi's; the sounds from last night were imaginable!
Staring at Qiu Zhixuan with her flawless, almost dyed-like skin, Li Zhi couldn't understand why, as women, Qiu Zhixuan could live so well!
Seeing Li Zhi's appearance, Qiu Zhixuan was momentarily dumbfounded.
However, for her, it was all unexpected yet within reason.
