Su Shen rested his forehead in his hand, a gesture of resignation. His gaze fell upon his young wife, Gu Zi, who just happened to look up at him with a coquettish inquiry.
"Brother-in-law," she asked sweetly, "what should we be mindful of with this lady? When we were in the car earlier, didn't you promise to take good care of me on behalf of my sister? Or were you just tricking me into kissing you?"
Mrs. Zhou looked on at the pair before her, a couple she deemed scandalous. Her lips curled in distaste, her white teeth gleaming in silent judgment.
So, it was Su Shen who had deceived this naive young girl. Good heavens! It was a complete overturn of the impression Su Shen had previously given her. How could he have changed so drastically?
Mrs. Zhou's face was a mask of displeasure. She hastily made an excuse to leave, not wanting to play a part in their game.
