Two People Eavesdropping by the Wall
After helping Qin Kaize put on his clothes, Su Yijia washed herself and then carried a bucket of water outside to empty it. Gao Huabin rushed over to help, even cleaning up the spilled water on the ground without letting her lift a finger. Su Yijia was starting to feel a bit embarrassed. Several times, she wanted to help, but not only Gao Huabin but even Xia Weiguo wouldn't allow it.
Qin's mother stood at the second-floor window, watching her with a mixture of disdain and hidden envy. Su Yijia knew exactly what she was thinking, so she raised her chin with even more pride and gave her a teasing wave. When Qin's mother's face darkened, she turned around, closed the door behind her, and returned to the room.
