The young man's arms, along with his burgeoning passion, intoxicated Chen Xishan.
She couldn't wait any longer, calling out in disarray: "Shaoting... Shaoting..."
Duonian suddenly awoke.
He pushed away the woman in his arms: "I'm sorry!"
He fled in panic, his clothes a disordered mess, unable to tidy them...
...
Since that day, Duonian avoided Mrs. Huo.
He refused to come to settle accounts, and the Zhou Family sent someone else.
Chen Xishan, having gained some benefit that day, couldn't forget, but with Duonian not showing up, she could only stew in anxious frustration.
The people from the Zhou Family came to settle accounts, and she simply dealt with it perfunctorily.
Back in her room.
Chen Xishan examined herself in the mirror and said to Lu'er: "He dislikes how I look."
Lu'er replied: "That day, I saw how he ran out; he seemed to have affections towards Mrs. Huo."
Chen Xishan sighed with deep resentment: "Then why doesn't he come to see me?"
