So as soon as Zhou Zhiqiang stood still, Zhang Xianglian looked at him coldly and uttered a single word, "Get lost."
When a gentle person turns cold and hard, it's the most frightening thing.
The person who once endured beatings and scoldings, whom I knew so well and was close to in my bones, now seems so unfamiliar.
She looked beautiful and younger; the weariness and hardship had vanished from her brows, and she seemed as gentle and radiant as when she got married.
