After picking out more than a dozen outfits and buying some skincare and cosmetic products, Jiang Yue and Yao Hua emerged from the department store carrying large bags and small packages.
With so much stuff, Jiang Yue found a deliveryman, paid him some money, and asked him to deliver the items to the compound.
After that, Jiang Yue took Yao Hua to the barbershop.
Yao Hua's hair is naturally curly, and she usually just ties it up with a hair tie. Combined with her thick bangs, it looks a bit messy and obscures her beauty.
This time, the hairdresser gave Yao Hua a new straight hairstyle that went past her shoulders, revealing her forehead and making her look brighter.
Jiang Yue also changed her hairstyle, turning her hair into the currently popular big waves.
After her hair was styled, Jiang Yue was instantly amazed by how beautiful she looked.
This hairstyle really suits her face.
"Yueyue, you are so beautiful."
Yao Hua looked at Jiang Yue with amazement at her new hairstyle, "Yueyue, you are even more beautiful than those female celebrities in the posters now."
Jiang Yue smiled and told Yao Hua to turn around and look in the mirror.
"Huahua, you should look at yourself first before you praise me. Right now, you are the most amazing person in this room."
Jiang Yue couldn't stop liking Yao Hua's pretty face and the clothes she had just bought.
It's so beautiful.
"Huahua, let's go home now and let Grandma see you. She probably won't even recognize you now."
After paying, Jiang Yue rode her bicycle with Yao Hua on her back towards the compound.
Back in the compound.
Jiang Yue and Yao Hua hadn't arrived home yet when they spotted Zhao Lanxi taking a walk in the distance.
This time, Zhao Lanxi and the woman beside her happened to be walking in this direction and ran into Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue originally didn't want to pay attention to Zhao Lanxi, nor was she in the mood to greet her.
However, Zhao Lanxi pulled the girl beside her and blocked Jiang Yue's way.
"Jiang Yue, is this your new hairstyle?"
Seeing Jiang Yue's new hairstyle, Zhao Lanxi felt a pang of jealousy.
She knew Jiang Yue was prettier than her, but seeing Jiang Yue with her new hairstyle, Zhao Lanxi couldn't help but feel jealous. Although Jiang Yue was pretty before she changed her hairstyle, she could still compare to her.
But now, with her new hairstyle, Jiang Yue completely outshone her.
"Is there something you need?"
Jiang Yue stopped the car and asked Zhao Lanxi with a cold face.
"Of course something's wrong. Why would I call you if nothing's wrong?"
Didn't you say before that we didn't get along?
Without Pei Hengzhi present, Zhao Lanxi stopped pretending. She pointed to the woman beside her and said to Jiang Yue, "This is Siyu, from the capital, a distinguished guest of our family."
"What do I have to do with your distinguished guests?"
Jiang Yue's expression did not soften just because Han Qing was from Kyoto. She looked at Zhao Lanxi as if she were crazy, "Could it be that your family has nowhere to stay and wants your distinguished guest to stay at my house?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhao Lanxi was almost furious at Jiang Yue's words. Their house was no smaller than Jiang's, so how could it not be big enough?
Jiang Yue was deliberately trying to disgust her.
Suppressing the urge to tear Jiang Yue apart, Zhao Lanxi suddenly smiled smugly, "Where's your Yao Hua? Go and call her out. Our Siyu has something to say to her."
Zhao Lanxi was so preoccupied with jealousy towards Jiang Yue that she only glanced at the people around Jiang Yue and failed to realize that the beautiful woman beside Jiang Yue was actually Yao Hua.
After all, the current Yao Hua is so different from the Yao Hua of the past, it's like she's a completely different person.
Upon hearing that Zhao Lanxi was looking for her, Yao Hua immediately wanted to stand in front of Jiang Yue.
But Jiang Yue grabbed Yao Hua's hand, signaling her not to make a sound.
"Silky Rain?"
Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow and glanced at the woman standing next to Zhao Lanxi, who had been arrogant and even disdainful of others from the start.
"I've never even heard of this name before. My daughter Huahua doesn't know her either. What's the point of talking to her?"
"Jiang Yue, I know you protect Yao Hua, but there are some things you can't keep from Yao Hua, right?"
Zhao Lanxi put her arm around Chen Siyu's arm and smiled even more smugly, "Let me tell you the truth, Siyu is Political Commissar Yu's fiancée, introduced by Political Commissar Yu."
Political Commissar Yu himself agreed; Siyu's trip to City A was specifically for Political Commissar Yu.
"You said she's Political Commissar Yu's fiancée?"
Political Commissar Yu agreed?
Jiang Yue looked at the two women in front of her and laughed in exasperation, "When did this happen? How come I didn't know about it?"
"How could Political Commissar Yu possibly discuss his own marriage with an outsider like you?"
Zhao Lanxi looked at Jiang Yue with sarcasm, "But it's not too late for you to know now. Since you don't want to call Yao Hua out, then you should go back and persuade your Yao Hua properly."
It's not that I'm being mean, but your Yao Hua is really not good enough for Political Commissar Yu.
Look at her, she's as fat as a pig. Let alone men, even I feel disgusted by her. How could someone as outstanding as Political Commissar Yu possibly be interested in her?
Political Commissar Yu only agreed to date her because he didn't want to refuse your Battalion Commander Lu. Why did you take it so seriously?
After Zhao Lanxi finished speaking, seeing Jiang Yue's gloomy face, she felt extremely pleased.
Jiang Yue is better than her in every way now, and the people in the compound especially like to compare her with Jiang Yue. Now Zhao Lanxi is so inferior that she can hardly hold her head up in the compound.
She just can't stand seeing Jiang Yue have it easy; she's happy as long as Jiang Yue is unhappy.
"Even if your Yao Hua has lost a lot of weight, look at her. She looks as rustic as an old lady who just came to the city. How can she compare to our Si Yu?"
"Our Siyu is a top student who graduated from Kyoto University. She's beautiful and comes from a good family. Even a fool would know which to choose between Siyu and Yaohua, let alone Political Commissar Yu, right?"
After Zhao Lanxi finished speaking, Siyu, who had been silent beside her, also spoke to Jiang Yue.
"Jiang Yue, right? I hope you can pass on my words to Comrade Yao Hua. She is not good enough for Yu Xiangdong. Don't let her selfishness ruin Yu Xiangdong's life."
"No need to tell Yueyue, I'm right here."
Yao Hua stepped forward, blocking Jiang Yue's path. She was not ashamed because of Zhao Lanxi and Si Yu's belittling. She stood up straight, looked at Si Yu with composure, and spoke clearly, word by word.
“Siyu, right? I heard what you said. You are a top student who graduated from Kyoto University. You are good-looking and have a good family background. I am indeed not as good as you.”
You said Yu Xiangdong has acknowledged that you are his fiancée, is that right?
If Yu Xiangdong really agrees to marry me, but then turns around and admits that you are his fiancée without explaining things to me clearly, I, Yao Hua, would never want a man like him.
It's not that I'm not good enough for him, it's that his fickle nature doesn't deserve my unwavering devotion.
