A few minutes later, Qin Mei went to the kitchen, scooped out a bowl of starchy rice water, and walked toward the courtyard gate.
Finding a satisfactory spot, she splashed the rice water onto the wall and pasted a piece of paper over it.
Holding the empty bowl, Qin Mei took a few steps back to admire her masterpiece, extremely satisfied. "Dogs and Wen Xingnan are not allowed inside. Perfect."
She wanted to see if Wen Xingnan would still have the thick skin to cross their threshold after reading those words.
It wasn't physically harmful, but it was incredibly insulting.
Qin Mei returned to the courtyard and sat in the wicker chair for about ten minutes. Then, she went back inside to lie down, meditated for a short while, and fell asleep.
Lunchtime had already passed by the time Jie Jinghun and Jie Jingchen returned. When they saw the paper pasted on the wall—and especially the words written on it—both of their mouths twitched.
