The True Meaning of Words

Wen Xinya heaved a sigh of relief after the coming-of-age ceremony ended. The ceremony was tedious and complicated, and she had to rehearse it with Zhou Tianyu several times before getting it right. She was so stressed about making it seamless that she had tensed up completely. The heavy hair accessories and gown made her feel as if she was about to suffocate. Traditional customs and rites were too strict and serious.

She was the center of attention for the coming-of-age ceremony.

Wen Xinya returned to her room to change out of the ceremonial attire.

The attire that she had donned today was a traditional Chinese costume that was known to be graceful and beautiful. There were several layers to the attire that was made out of precious phoenix embroidered silk, making her look posh and proper. Although it was classic and serious, it did not make her lose her beauty.
