Wei Mingshen didn't dare turn around, but managed to utter two words: "Beautiful."
"Hehehe, then I'll dress like this from now on," Xiao Jiu said excitedly.
"Oh my, Xiao Jiu, you're making your grand entrance!" Su Xueli exclaimed upon seeing her.
Xiao Jiu said with a smug look on her face, "Brother Wei likes it."
Su Xueli was both amused and exasperated. She pointed to the washbasin and said, "Go wash up quickly, and then go inside to apply my perfume. Also, those two ponytails do look nice, but they don't suit you anymore. That's a little girl's hairstyle. You're a grown woman now."
Xiao Jiu touched her two braids and said, "I asked Brother Wei, and he just said it looks good."
Su Xueli glared at Wei Mingshen and said to Xiao Jiu, "He's just embarrassed to tell the truth. Your sister won't lie to you. Hurry up and wash off the powder on your face, and tie your two ponytails into one."
“Look at you, it’s a person’s freedom to dress as they please. Just because you say it doesn’t look good doesn’t mean it doesn’t look good,” Wei Mingshen said.
Xiao Jiu said matter-of-factly, "That's right. The book says that women dress up for those they love, and I'm not dressing up for you. Brother Wei, don't you think so?"
Wei Mingshen didn't dare to say anything this time and slipped into the house.
Su Xueli glanced at Xiao Jiu and helplessly shrugged: Okay then, whatever makes you happy.
When it was time to start work, Su Xueli said to Xiao Jiu again, "You and your brother Wei go ahead and get busy. I'm going to the market to buy some things."
Upon hearing that she would be spending time alone with her Prince Charming again, Xiao Jiu happily exclaimed, "Go quickly, go quickly!"
Su Xueli nodded at her, picked up her bag and walked outside, but came back when she reached the courtyard gate. She said to Wei Mingshen, "Come and stay here at the gate."
Wei Mingshen then came out.
Su Xueli scolded him: "Are you sick? Look at Xiao Jiu's appearance, she looks like a little girl who drives a horse-drawn carriage. Why don't you persuade her to wash up?"
Wei Mingshen clicked his tongue: "Just mind your own business and come back quickly."
Su Xueli waved her hand and said, "Never mind."
"Sister Xue Li, remember to buy meat! We're making wontons for lunch!" Xiao Jiu called out as she ran out of the house.
Su Xueli agreed, "Okay."
She pushed her bicycle out the door, and Wei Mingshen quickly closed the courtyard gate.
He felt a little awkward. He didn't feel awkward when he and Su Xueli went to the hospital together at home, but he felt a little awkward when he went to the hospital together with Xiao Jiu.
Forget it, let's just treat her like a child.
"Brother Wei, Sister Xue Li is gone?" Xiao Jiu asked him excitedly as he entered the room.
Wei Mingshen said, "Yes, I'll be back in a bit."
"Hehe, then it's just the two of us left in this house."
Wei Mingshen: "..."
"Hey Wei-ge, you have to admit my sister Shirley has terrible taste! She actually said I didn't look good, but all I did was wear a little too much makeup. She also said pigtails don't suit me anymore, but I think they look great on me, they really suit my style..."
"They match perfectly, they match so well."
"Hehe, Brother Wei has good taste."
Wei Mingshen: "..."
She suddenly became melancholic and asked cautiously, "Brother Wei, have you moved on from that relationship?"
