Cheng Su finished drawing her eyebrows but didn’t get a response from Qi Taiguo for a long ti. She turned her head, unsure what he was spacing out about, and kicked him gently.
"Hmm, what’s going on?" Qi Taiguo snapped back to reality.
"I should be asking you what’s going on," Cheng Su pouted and said, "I asked you sothing, and you didn’t reply. Are you thinking about your first love?"
"Nonsense!" Qi Taiguo sat up, pinching her chin, and said, "I have you now, why would I think about soone else?"
"Then why didn’t you reply?" Cheng Su huffed softly.
"Want to hear the truth?" Qi Taiguo answered without waiting for her to respond, "Actually, back then, I really wasn’t satisfied with this marriage because it felt so disgraceful. I even thought about calling it off, but then I knew that was impossible, so I just stopped thinking about it."
Cheng Su fell silent. Previously, when the original owner saw Qi Taiguo, she was arrogant and even said things like he was a son-in-law bought by the Cheng family. Anyone would feel embarrassed, let alone soone with his strong masculine personality.
"I was immature back then. Did you resent it?" Cheng Su asked.
Qi Taiguo laughed, "Weren’t you young then? How could I bla you? After we got married, you grew up fast. You’ve been great!" He paused and added, "It’s said that once a person gets married and starts a family, their character changes. It’s true. I really think your character has changed a lot from before and after our marriage; it’s completely different."
Cheng Suxin’s heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him and asked, "Do you like the now or the from before?"
Qi Taiguo didn’t answer imdiately. He carefully pondered. He knew won could change their minds quickly, and giving the wrong answer might upset her. So, he didn’t dare to reply right away.
"Tell the truth!" Cheng Su saw through his thoughts with one look.
Qi Taiguo spoke cautiously, "The you now is better. I really like you and love you." This way, she shouldn’t get mad. Everything he said was nice.
But Cheng Su laughed, saying, "So you didn’t like the old . Hmm, I understand!" Having said that, she turned away to continue finishing her makeup.
She wasn’t upset and seed quite pleased?
Qi Taiguo looked confused, thinking that indeed a woman’s heart is like a needle in the sea—impossible to predict.
He didn’t realize why Cheng Su was happy. She was glad that he liked her married self. That was her true self. Before the marriage, it was the original owner. This body originally housed two souls.
And won are inherently jealous and want their n to only like them. Hearing Qi Taiguo say this naturally made her happy.
After finishing her makeup, Cheng Su put on jeans and a sweater, slipped into ankle boots, put on a large down jacket, and took Qi Taiguo’s arm, ready to leave.
Just then, the phone rang.
Cheng Su had to answer it. The call was from Ying Xiaoya, saying she wasn’t coming to the gathering this ti.
Cheng Su was montarily stunned, then heard her joyous tone and tentatively asked, "Did Xiao Pinshan confess to you?"
On the other end, Ying Xiaoya stamred shyly, taking a long pause before affirming, "He confessed to and doesn’t want to go. I... I also don’t really want to go, so..."
She got what she wished for, so naturally, she didn’t want to attend the gathering. Cheng Su just replied, "Alright, I’ll cancel for you!" As for their story, there would be plenty of chances to hear it later.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Taiguo asked what happened.
Cheng Su told him about Xiao Ya not coming to the gathering. Qi Taiguo wasn’t bothered, just holding her hand as they headed out.
