"Mmm," Liang Wanwan said, "I like her red dress look."
"What a coincidence." Xu Qingzhu's eyes lit up, but before she could finish speaking, Liang Wanwan interrupted, "You too?"
Xu Qingzhu nodded.
Liang Wanwan said, "Her red dress look is absolutely stunning, a must-see picture for getting me hooked."
Xu Qingzhu chimed in, "Yes, I was also amazed by her movie."
Two people, both stunned by the red dress, chatted at length, and not only that, they also talked about the movie and discussed the characters at length.
They then discovered that the two had very similar understandings of the film.
As the conversation got more interesting, Xu Qingzhu took out the complete set of autographed photos that Yang Shuyan had given her and introduced them to Liang Wanwan as if they were her most treasured possessions.
Seeing this made Liang Wanwan feel much better, even after losing Chen Mian's picture book last night.
Liang Shi, who was washing up at the sink, was speechless.
She really wanted to ask: Is Yang Shuyan really that beautiful?
Xu Qingzhu was very happy to see the set of autographed photos. It would seem petty for Liang Shi to ask that question.
Furthermore, Liang Shi also wanted to say: No matter how beautiful Yang Shuyan is, she belongs to Zhao Ying!
But then I realized that Xu Qingzhu also knew about this.
Liang Shi: "..."
You love a woman who already has a girlfriend—no, a woman with casual sex—so much.
If Yang Shuyan is truly innocent, they'll go crazy for her!
Early in the morning, Liang Shi felt like he had eaten a lemon.
No, the mint-flavored toothpaste is a bit sour.
It's a problem with the toothpaste.
It has nothing to do with her.
Chapter 110
Liang Wanwan did cry for a long time last night, and she was even frightened by her own eyes when she looked in the mirror this morning.
Even when going out to buy breakfast, they avoid people.
Sadness is most easily stirred up in the lonely night, and she cried herself to sleep.
Before falling asleep, I was thinking: I should never like Chen Mian again.
But the first thing I did when I woke up in the morning, as usual, was to look at the picture book. Then, as I flipped through my pillow, I suddenly remembered that I was at my sister's house.
Her art album has already been washed by Liang Xinran.
She was with her older sister, whom she had only recently met.
They look quite alike, but Liang Wanwan hates being compared.
Especially for Qiu Zimin, she felt extremely guilty towards her biological daughter whom she had just brought back from a poor and remote area, and her feelings were heavily filtered through her eyes, so her biological daughter, who had always been by her side, seemed insignificant.
When Liang Wanwan thought about this, she couldn't help but cry again.
She carefully went to wash up after crying.
She was having breakfast with Liang Shi and Xu Qingzhu, and both of them were very quiet, much like when she ate in the school cafeteria.
After dinner, Liang Wanwan got up to clean up, but Liang Shi took the initiative, saying, "You rest, I'll do it."
Liang Wanwan responded with an "Oh".
She and Xu Qingzhu continued to sit on the sofa and talk about the movie, but her attention was somewhat diverted.
But no matter how good Yang Shuyan is, she can't completely erase the sadness of losing Chen Mian's picture album.
Liang Wanwan lowered her eyes, seemingly looking intently at Yang Shuyan's poster, exuding a restrained and melancholic aura.
Xu Qingzhu glanced at her thoughtfully a few times, but instead of offering to give the poster Yang Shuyan had specially given her to Liang Wanwan, she asked, "Is there anything you'd like an autograph for?"
Liang Wanwan looked up, her expression surprised, and asked incredulously, "Are you asking me?"
Xu Qingzhu nodded, "Yes, I can't give you this set, but I can get you a signed copy next time I see Yang Shuyan."
I heard that the fans really like this set.
For example, her younger sister, Xu Qingya.
This was the only way Xu Qingzhu could think of to comfort her.
After hesitating for a moment, Liang Wanwan said somewhat embarrassedly, "If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to say—'How can one withstand the fierce wind of the evening?'"
Xu Qingzhu asked, "Is it that poem?"
“Mmm,” Liang Wanwan said, “I really like this line.”
Xu Qingzhu agreed.
When Liang Shi came out after cleaning up the kitchen, Xu Qingzhu had already changed her clothes and was ready to go to work.
Liang Shi asked Liang Wanwan what she planned to do today, and Liang Wanwan said she was going back to school because she had classes in the afternoon.
Liang Shi was worried about her condition and hesitated to ask her to stay another day, but Liang Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "I'm really fine."
It's clear that she hasn't fully recovered, but she's much better than she was last night.
After confirming with Liang Wanwan several times, Liang Shicai said, "Then I'll take you to school in a bit."
Liang Wanwan nodded and agreed.
She was always quiet and not very close to Liang Shi.
There's not much to say when we're together right now.
Liang Shi wanted to take Xu Qingzhu to work, but Xu Qingzhu shook the keychain on her finger and said, "I'll go by myself."
Liang Shi stood in the entryway, Xu Qingzhu leaned against the shoe cabinet, her feet lightly slipping into her high heels, and whispered to her, "Take a break and take Wanwan home."
Liang Shi saw her to the door and stood there for a while until Xu Qingzhu got on the elevator and left before she closed the door.
When she turned around, she found Liang Wanwan staring at her intently.
Their eyes met.
Liang Wanwan lowered her head first, looking somewhat off.
Liang Shi took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong?"
Just now, Liang Wanwan's eyes held a mix of longing, curiosity, and shock—a very complex look.
Liang Wanwan shook her head subconsciously, but after a moment she said, "Sister, you just now..."
She paused, her tone slightly incredulous: "It looks like the Waiting-for-Wife Stone."
Liang Shi: "?"
//
Liang Wanwan never really believed that Liang Shi would change, nor did she think that her marriage with Xu Qingzhu was genuine.
She was someone who grew up watching Liang Shi's back.
As far back as Liang Wanwan can remember, Liang Shi has never been a purely good person.
It's even hard to call her a good older sister.
When we were in school, other girls' older sisters would chat and laugh with their younger sisters, sharing fun things and delicious food together.
But she and Liang Shi did not.
The two schools were not far apart, and they were often picked up and dropped off in the same car. But whether on the way to or from school, Liang Shi never spoke to her much. Occasionally, his eyes would be gloomy and his expression would be cold, making people afraid to get close to him.
Liang Wanwan was timid by nature and often kept her distance from her.
What impressed me most was the time she stood up for me.
That was something Liang Wanwan had never imagined.
For a long time, she felt that her older sister was practically useless.
But she never expected that one day she would hear Liang Shi coldly say to someone, "Do you want to die? You messed with my sister."
From that moment on, Liang Shicai took a place in her heart.
However, they mostly don't talk, and even if they're added on WeChat, they don't chat for long.
If they bump into each other at home, Liang Wanwan will take a detour. If they really do collide head-on, she won't even call out "sister."
Liang Wanwan truly knew what Liang Shi was like before.
That's a bastard.
Liang Wanwan felt that all people who played with emotions were bastards.
She had seen Liang Shi change women every few days, and she had seen her frequent high-end clubs. She had even once gone to a well-known bar in Haizhou City out of curiosity.
That bar was indeed not a respectable place, but Liang Wanwan really didn't expect Liang Shi to do that in public.
The woman's entire body was covered in fabric, concentrated around her lower abdomen.
What Liang Wanwan considered a shameful thing was something the woman seemed to be enjoying.
Liang Wanwan saw Liang Shi's profile.
Her clothes were perfectly straight, clearly indicating that she was doing something that would make anyone blush.
Liang Shi, however, showed no expression; his eyes held only unfathomable indifference.
Because of that scene, Liang Wanwan didn't speak to Liang Shi for a long time.
In Liang Wanwan's view, Liang Shi was a two-faced, contradictory person.
Liang Shi's contradiction lies in the fact that he constantly frequents brothels but has never fallen in love with anyone, yet he once argued fiercely with his family because he wanted to marry Xu Qingzhu.
At first, Liang Wanwan didn't believe it.
