The two of them stepped out of the car, one after the other. Xu Xiaoxiao instructed Ji Fang to wait. She leaned against the door, lighting a cigarette.

“Should I inform Big Brother about this?” she asked.

“I can’t reach him by phone. Let’s hold off for now, ” Zhou Hengguang replied, his fingers creating faint sparks with the fireworks in the darkness. “You can see that Sister-in-law isn’t ordinary. She won’t want outsiders meddling in her family affairs.”

“How did we become outsiders?” Xu Xiaoxiao grumbled.

“To Sister-in-law, we are,” he explained. Su Wen was different; she was independent and didn’t rely on others, even his Big Brother. This matter troubles Big Brother.

“What we did today might have caused trouble for Sister-in-law. She probably wants to reclaim the dignity she lost,” Zhou Hengguang chuckled, his smile devilish.

“The Su sisters are all resilient. They know how to fight back,” he added. Despite Qing Qing’s ordeal, she persevered silently.

To support Qingqing, he would show up for her grand opening.

“Got it,” Xu Xiaoxiao agreed. Just as she was about to leave, she noticed the neighbours returning, gossiping excitedly. ‘Why did Cousin move in next door?” she asked, hearing Zhou Nini’s voice.

Xu Xiaoxiao’s brows furrowed the moment she heard Zhou Nini’s voice. Zhou Nini was a year older than her, twenty-one this year, but her personality was quite childish.

“They’re probably here to keep an eye on me,” Zhou Hengguang said with self-deprecation.

Xu Xiaoxiao sympathetically glanced at him. “How unfortunate.”

“If you hadn’t taken me in, I’d be sleeping on the streets,” Liang Shuzhen thanked Zhou Nini, linking arms with her.

“Don’t be so formal. We’re good sisters!” Zhou Nini replied warmly, pleased with their bond. Recently, she introduced Liang Shuzhen to new friends, boosting her status in the art troupe. Participating in several television programs and gaining fame on TV elevated her status within the cultural troupe. If it weren’t for Su Wen, she would have been even more content.

After today’s banquet, Liang Shuzhen’s jealousy flared, and she planned to capitalize on their defence of her.

The more Xu Xiaoxiao and Zhou Hengguang defended her, the more indignant she felt. So once the banquet was over, she would pester Zhou Nini and coax her so that she could gain a lot of benefits.

“Here, I brought you a gift to thank you for your help last time,” Liang Shuzhen said, offering a scarf.

“What is it?” Zhou Nini asked, not expecting anything grand.

“It’s a scarf. I’ll show it to you later when we go inside,” Liang Shuzhen replied.

As Zhou Nini heard it was a scarf, she felt a bit disappointed, but she quickly brushed it aside. She didn’t expect others to repay her for such a small favour. For those who acknowledged her, she had always been generous.

As she unlocked the door, Liang Shuzhen sighed and asked with concern, “Nini, after what happened with Song Zishan today, do you think she’ll make things difficult for you in the future? I’m worried. Are you staying in the province for the Lunar New Year, or are you going back to the capital?”

Liang Shuzhen voiced her worries about Song Zishan’s behaviour and asked about Zhou Nini’s plans for the future..
