As the saying goes, 'clothes make the man'.
The Mu family had only provided Tan Shuangshuang with sackcloths and did not allow any tailor to make any robes for her. Hence, she could only get some new robes from the fabric store out there. She knew that she could never seduce Mu Qingyin with her current clothes.
In the courtyard of the Qin family.
"Chen'er!" A voice spoke from behind him.
Qin Chen paused but did not turn his head around. With his back facing the lady behind him, his face was extremely cold and nonchalant.
Qin Fei'er closed her eyes gently.
A smiling face of a young master flashed through her mind as if countless swords were pierced into her heart. Her heart was dripping with blood, her face was ghastly pale.
Qin Fei'er thought that Qin Chen had always treated everyone coldly. However, he smiled so brightly at someone else.
"Chen'er." Qin Fei'er opened her eyes and walked toward Qin Chen, slowly.
"You know it very well, Father is mad about the things that you have done the other day. You leave the Qin family very often, recently. I am the one who has coaxed him. I told him to treat you better as you have gone through a lot of struggles."
Qin Chen listened to Qin Fei'er quietly, his face was still nonchalant.
"I have truly made some mistakes and I feel sorry for Li'er. It is natural that she is still mad at me. Chen'er, I am your sister. Tell me what I have done wrong to you. Why are you doing this to me?" Qin Fei'er smiled, wryly.
'What have I done wrong to you? Why are you so cold to me... ?'
Qin Chen was different before he had left the Qin family.
Previously, although Qin Chen had never smiled at Qin Fei'er, he would never distance himself from her.
Qin Fei'er waited for Qin Chen's response for a long while but he did not utter a single word.
Suddenly Qin Chen's words flashed through Qin Fei'er's mind. It was the things that he had said when he returned to the Qin family. He had been extremely cold to Qin Fei'er since.
"Chen'er, is it because I want to get into the Mu family? I like Nan Xian. He is so ethereal and otherworldly. Who doesn't like him? What is wrong with that?" Qin Fei'er's eyes were full of sorrow, her voice cracked.
"You must have thought that I have no dignity or respect for myself as I want to be someone's concubine. You will understand this when you have found the lady whom you like. You would not hesitate to give her everything that you have."
What was wrong with being Nan Xian's concubine? As long as Qin Fei'er could stay together with Nan Xian, she did not even care if Nan Xian did not make her his wife or concubine.
In fact, Qin Fei'er had met Nan Xian before. Although she had only seen the grown-up Nan Xian from painting, she had met Nan Xian years ago when Nan Xian was still a kid. However, she could hardly forget him.
Outside Tian Shen Manor, Nan Xian was only eight or nine years old back then. However, he was not afraid of confronting many people of the Mu family. He was so imposing, like a god, and the people before him were just like ants.
Qin Fei'er could never forget him since.
When the people of the Mu family had sent her a painting of Nan Xian who was a grown-up now, she could not help falling for him. She liked him. What was wrong with that?
She did not care what the people out there said about her.
She had no dignity.
Well, what of it?
Since Qin Chen was Qin Fei'er brother and had distanced himself from her as he cared for her, Why did he not understand her?
"Chen'er, I know you like the lady—Feng Ruqing, but I am your sister. I will stand by you. If she truly likes you, I will beg Father to let you marry her
