As for the peculiar experience of Ms. Zhong, who had transformed from a hippo to a model as she aged eighteen, the process in between can be omitted without mention. After all, that is not the focus.
The point is that now, this pair of men and women, one had become good-looking, the other had become disabled.
"In the past, Zhang Sanfeng often mocked her behind her back, after all, they were just kids," Yebai explained his brother’s wrongdoing as a child.
"Does Zhang Sanfeng feel embarrassed now?" If that was really the case, Gu Nuan also thought someone deserved it. This is called karma; no need for a next life when it is addressed in this one.
Yebai shook his head, reminding his wife of the key point, "Zhang Sanfeng has an older brother, she was originally intended for Zhang Sanfeng’s older brother as a fiancee. Not for Zhang Sanfeng."
Don’t assume Zhang Sanfeng seemed disabled, that charm, still unstoppable, no girl felt that Zhang Sanfeng’s disability in one leg mattered; on the contrary, it spurred an infinite maternal affection in women, which was countless.
Gu Nuan thought for a moment and said, "When I heard her mention it herself before, she never mentioned having a fiance, only that she didn’t even have a boyfriend." ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵
Yebai and Zhang Sanfeng were indeed good brothers, but, just as Zhang Sanfeng didn’t like to meddle in Yebai’s family matters, Yebai, as a brother, also didn’t like to meddle in Zhang Family’s family matters.
As for what the Zhang Family’s attitude towards Zhang Sanfeng’s older brother was, Yebai had no clue at all. This matter, after all, involved the emotions of others. His primary concern was to keep an eye firmly on his own wife. Other people’s women, of course, they had to manage by themselves.
Seeing Yebai at a loss for answers, Gu Nuan gently wondered whether to sigh or not.
She really had not expected such a connection.
Qiaohui herself never expected that, after all the twists and turns, in the end, she would encounter the Zhong Family again. Originally, when she resigned from another company, everyone thought it was because Chen Jiaming poached her with a high offer.
Of course, that wasn’t the case. The price offered by Chen Jiaming was just the market rate, nothing extra.
Her insistence on leaving that company was because she later discovered that the owner behind that company was a friend of the Zhong Family.
Disliking being said to have connections and wanting everything to rely on her own efforts, Qiaohui decisively switched to a relatively clean environment.
She never expected that Changda’s future heir, Young Master Xiao, would always have a relationship with the Zhang Family.
Of course, Qiaohui knew that her entry into Changda had nothing to do with Yebai. However, now that she had met this man, that vague discomfort inside her, that persistent knot, resurfaced.
As Yebai had said, she had been enamored with this man since her childhood, but she was designated to be his older brother’s fiancee. Such a complicated relationship, who would believe it if it were spoken of outside?
Not to mention, she was as fat as a hippo in her childhood; don’t think that such an ugly image made her feel inferior. No, she had had a pretty good life during that time. Because back then, she was at least certain that even Zhang’s older brother wouldn’t like her, so, sooner or later, this marriage arrangement would naturally be dissolved.
As expected, this matter was certainly not one that their younger generation could propose an objection to and have dissolved immediately. What Zhang’s older brother thought, she did not know. But the Zhang Family had never thought of breaking off the engagement because of her ugly appearance as a child.
The Zhang Family was right. Qiaohui’s parents were so good-looking, with excellent genetic inheritance, how could Qiaohui be ugly? Gradually, Qiaohui grew more and more beautiful, progressively fitting into what the Zhang Family had in mind.
