His Woman: (1)

Shao Lin was not sure what to expect beyond Long Yat-sen's change in behaviour.

Some part of her felt nervous, while the other part of her was pumping with excitement.

She always felt left out of the loop when everyone in Long Yat-sen's circle knew so much.

They were raised in that world. She reminded herself. She was not, and that was the difference.

But she was tired of being closed out when she wanted to be let in. Though it was done for her protection, she was still a princess of the Ox, and she had to see it. At least once.

Long Xia dragged her to the lower level of the building to dress up at her apartment.

Her sister-in-law rummaged through her wardrobe, looking for something that would fit her. When she finally did, she said, "Ah! I found it."

Long Xia pulled out a short and black sleek dress. "I bought this some time ago but never had the chance to wear it. I told myself I might fit into it one day but never did." She handed over the dress.
