Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Sun Li tied up the upper half of Ye Ling’s hair and adorned it with a silver hair accessory, while the other half of her hair naturally cascaded down, exuding an air of classical and understated elegance.
The strands of hair, loosely curled, gracefully framed her face, looking completely effortless and adding a touch of alluring charm to her overall appearance.
As Ye Ling gazed at her reflection in the mirror, she felt a certain degree of unfamiliarity. Her current attire was so opulent that she resembled a bride about to be married.
Ye Ling suddenly regretted her decision to accept Sun Li’s styling. She realized that her attire might give off a misleading impression to Min Nan, who would be returning soon. She worried that Min Nan would misunderstand her intentions.
Sun Li finished packing her hairstyling tools, and looked at Ye Ling with satisfaction, as if admiring her masterpiece. She patted Ye Ling on the shoulder and said, “Alright, Lingling, you can sit for a while. I’ll go prepare dinner.”
After Sun Li left, Ye Ling felt uneasy as she touched her dress and hair. She stared at herself in the mirror in a daze.
As evening approached, the Wan brothers began returning home.
Wan Xue was the first to arrive, holding a string of cicada shells in his left hand and a long bamboo pole for catching dragonflies in his right. Upon seeing Ye Ling, he almost stumbled and fell.
Wan Xue looked at Ye Ling in a daze for several seconds before tossing aside the items he held and rushing to her with excitement, exclaiming, “Sister
Lingling, when did you return?!”
Following Wan Xue, Wan Hai, and Wan Feng came back.
Wan Feng was taken aback when he spotted Ye Ling, his eyes nearly popping out. He narrowly avoided slamming into the door.
However, Wan Hai remained relatively composed. He exchanged meaningful smiles with Ye Ling and offered his greetings.
Under the scrutiny of the Wan brothers, Ye Ling felt increasingly uncomfortable.
After Sun Li prepared dinner, Min Nan finally returned.
As Min Nan approached the door, he didn’t see Ye Ling and instead only observed Wan Hai, Wan Feng, and Wan Xue sitting outside.
The three Wan brothers fixed their gazes on Min Nan with meaningful and somewhat ambiguous expressions.
Min Nan felt bewildered, and his initial thought was, “Is there something wrong?”
As he proceeded into the living room, he suddenly caught sight of a light pink figure. His eyes fixed on Ye Ling, and he was utterly dumbfounded.
When Ye Ling first saw Wan Hai and the others, she felt a bit awkward. However, upon seeing Min Nan, her face immediately flushed, like a ripe apple in autumn. Her heart raced, and she quickly lowered her head, unable to meet Min Nan’s gaze.
Oh my god! How would Min Nan perceive her now? Could he think that she had dressed up to get his attention?
Ye Ling’s thoughts were in disarray, and it took her several seconds to force herself to look up and offer a smile to Min Nan. “Big Brother Min Nan, you’re back. Auntie Sun asked me to try on some new clothes.”
Min Nan pursed his lips, unsure of what to say. He wanted to divert his gaze from Ye Ling, but he couldn’t.
Min Nan knew that Ye Ling was naturally beautiful, but he had never imagined that a little makeup would make her look so stunning.
The young girl before him resembled a fully bloomed flower bud, exuding a hint of allure in her shyness. When Min Nan and Ye Ling locked eyes, they both felt a tingling sensation, as if they had been electrified.
“Why aren’t you saying anything, Min Nan?” Wan Feng, who enjoyed stirring the pot, teased. “Isn’t Lingling looking great today?”
Min Nan shot Wan Feng a stern look with a clear warning in his eyes.
Wan Feng was not afraid of death and continued to provoke Min Nan. “Look at this blockhead, Lingling. He doesn’t even praise you for looking this good. But Wan Hai and I did!”
Min Nan was on the verge of stuffing Wan Feng’s mouth with his stinky socks.
“Stop chatting. Come over and help with serving the dishes. It’s time for dinner!” Sun Li’s loud voice from the doorway interrupted their conversation, providing Min Nan and Ye Ling with a welcome escape from the awkwardness.
The dinner that evening was exceptionally lavish. Sun Li had prepared a dish of fried wild boar meat and pig innards, generously using plenty of oil to enhance the rich flavors.
After dinner, Wan Hai took care of washing the bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen, while Ye Ling returned to Sun Li’s room to change her clothes.
Outside the room, Sun Li gazed at Min Nan with a meaningful smile. “So, what do you think of the clothes I made for Lingling? Do you like them?” She inquired, with a playful tone.
Min Nan looked at Sun Li helplessly.. Why was Sun Li teasing him like this?
