Chapter 13 Look at what you've done!

Two days before the wedding, Su Wanwan was finally able to rest.

Yang Lewei took her to a beauty salon for a spa treatment, where she got a thorough makeover.

The slight dark circles under her eyes from working long hours disappeared quickly, and she looked radiant. Yang Lewei was very jealous: "Anyone who didn't know better would think you were getting married. How can you look so good?"

Su Wanwan lowered her head and thought for a moment before saying, "I guess I have to thank my mother. There's nothing you can do about genes from the womb."

A staff member at the beauty salon chuckled nearby, saying, "Both of you are naturally beautiful."

This isn't flattery.

After a good rest and skincare routine, Su Wanwan's skin was glowing white, her features were delicate, and her eyes were moist.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Su Wanwan blinked gently, then nodded slightly, "I do look quite good."

Yang Lewei was so narcissistic that she wanted to hit her.

When Yang Lewei took Su Wanwan back to the villa, she gave her the bridesmaid dress that she had slightly modified, along with a set of underwear.

Su Wanwan touched the bra, flipped it over, and confirmed that it was her size.

Is it really necessary to prepare even this?

The preparations are one thing, but what's with this gaudy bright red?

Yang Lewei coughed lightly: "It's my hometown's custom that bridesmaids also have to wear red, symbolizing a prosperous marriage. Please bear with it for now."

Su Wanwan said she had never heard of such a custom.

But she endured it for her friend's sake.

Since she only wears it once, no one else can see it except herself.

Su Wan took it to wash that very evening when she got home.

Among a pile of light-colored clothes, this bright red is truly an eye-catching color.

Su Wanwan closed her eyes; they hurt, and she didn't want to look at them a second time, so she turned around and went back to her room to sleep.

That night, Su Wanwan slept until after ten o'clock.

She stretched and felt that she hadn't felt this comfortable and relaxed in a very long time.

She got up, leisurely made herself a cup of coffee, went out onto the balcony, and leisurely looked at the gardens and surroundings of the community.

Her place is quiet despite being in a busy area, and the buildings are far apart, making for a very comfortable living environment.

Downstairs is Xie Yanning's private garden, which Su Wanwan can see clearly from below.

If she were still living here, I wonder if she would ever see Xie Yanning and Zhang Yunqing taking care of the child, a happy family scene of three.

It's really quite a bittersweet thought.

The garden is filled with many low-lying plants, with vines climbing upwards, creating a very picturesque scene.

Professor Gu, being a botanist, certainly has a knack for tending to flowers and plants.

Of course, Su Wanwan rarely had such leisure time.

She has only met Aunt Gu's family downstairs twice so far.

One time, after finishing her night shift, she saw others leaving for work, and that was when she went to visit them.

Yuanxiao gently nibbled at Su Wanwan's trouser leg from below, protesting that she was ignoring her.

"Alright, alright, I'll take you out for a walk later." Su Wanwan said with her head down, walking to the rooftop terrace to collect the clothes.

Perhaps because she spends so much time in the hospital, Su Wanwan is used to airing her clothes out in the sun.

She draped her clothes over her arm, and when it came to the bright red panties, Su Wanwan picked them up with her fingertips, exuding a tragic air of "the wind howls and the water is cold."

Perhaps because the color was too striking, Yuanxiao jumped up with interest after Su Wanwan put it down.

Su Wanwan subconsciously raised her hand, and just then, a gust of wind blew her light, silky panties away.

It was too late to catch it; I could only watch helplessly as it drifted down.

Su Wanwan quickly peered down.

Fortunately, the neighbor's small garden behind the house had many plants, and the little underwear was placed in a relatively peripheral area.

A splash of red amidst the lush greenery was so striking that it made Su Wanwan's heart ache.

If Xie Yanning sees this, she'll have to move out overnight!

Su Wanwan glared at Yuanxiao fiercely, "Look what you've done!"

Today is Saturday, no work.

I don't know if anyone is downstairs. It would be best if the whole family went out for a trip while the autumn weather was nice and clear.

She might be able to climb over the wall and secretly retrieve it.

They probably won't check the surveillance footage, right?

Su Wanwan covered her face, thinking that either way was terrible, and then glared at Yuanxiao fiercely.

Yuanxiao gave her an innocent "meow".

Su Wanwan remained calm, realizing that being anxious wouldn't solve anything.

She paced a few steps on the terrace, finally stopping, and clasped her hands together in prayer, saying, "Greatly compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, please bless that Aunt Gu is home alone downstairs."

When the situation seemed hopeless, God was her only hope.

Then he took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Aunt Gu.

Regardless, we should first probe the situation to see if it's true or not.

[Aunt Gu, hello, are you home?]

Less than a minute later, they replied. That minute felt incredibly long to Su Wanwan.

[Your Uncle Xie and I are outside. Is there anything I can help you with?]

I dropped something in your garden and I'd like to go pick it up.

"Oh, it's nothing. My son's home. Just have him open the door for you. By the way, what did you drop?"

It's just a cat's toy ball.

Su Wanwan typed these words with a heavy heart, on the verge of tears.

The gods did not protect her.

She still couldn't deny that it hadn't fallen from her.

After all, there were no other houses within dozens of meters.

Or should she move?

No, I don't see the people downstairs very often anyway, maybe once every year or two, so what's there to be afraid of?

It doesn't matter, as long as I'm not embarrassed, then it's others who are embarrassed.

Even cavemen needed to cover themselves up; who doesn't wear such things? Color is a matter of personal preference!

Within two minutes, Su Wanwan mentally prepared herself, went downstairs, and walked to the entrance where some wedding candies were placed.

It was given to her by Yang Lewei, who said it was to let her share in the good fortune in advance, and that it might be her turn soon.

Su Wanwan pondered for two seconds, grabbed a few candies, and prepared to get off the elevator.

Yuanxiao had no idea how much trouble she had caused her owner. Seeing that Su Wanwan was about to leave, she immediately started biting her trouser leg again, meowing "meow meow meow".

It wants to go out too!

Su Wanwan glanced down at Yuanxiao, thinking that this was a bit awkward, and that it would be better to hug a cat that could only breathe.

Of course, she would soon regret her choice.

"You better watch your brain later and don't cause me any more trouble."

Su Wanwan reasoned with Yuanxiao, put on her coat, picked up the cat, and pressed the elevator button to go downstairs.

Downstairs, Xie Yanning was making coffee in the kitchen.

The sun was shining brightly today, and with the kitchen window open, a cool autumn breeze was blowing in, making it exceptionally comfortable.

Xie Yanning was a little distracted. In a moment of distraction, his hand slipped slightly, and a few drops of coffee splashed onto the back of his hand, causing a slight sting.

He glanced down at it, then calmly walked to the sink to wash his hands.

While rinsing, I seemed to catch a glimpse of a bright color out of the corner of my eye.

Xie Yanning looked up and saw a pair of underwear with an unusually glaring color hanging on the vines of the small garden behind him.

The combination of bright red and green is truly enchanting.

"..." The only person who could have fallen here is Su Wanwan upstairs.

His phone, which was on the sofa, rang. He went over and saw that it was a WeChat voice message from Gu Ruyi.

The toy ball belonging to Little Su Cat upstairs fell down; could you pick it up?

After listening to the voice message, Xie Yanning looked again at the bright red outside.

This excuse.

It's pretty bad.
