Chapter 37: Can't lose face

Yet Xu Chenghui, born with a proud disposition, had just spoken those words and now desired a taste but couldn't swallow her pride.

Shen Fengyi remained aloof, not taking the initiative to offer a courtesy, leaving Xu Chenghui with no way to step down gracefully, only fuming in silence.

Tao Chenghui glimpsed Xu Chenghui's puffed cheeks, holding back a laugh as she continued to crack sunflower seeds.

After cracking sunflower seeds for a while, Tao Chenghui dusted off her hands, took a brocade box from Ding Xiang, and placed it in front of Shen Chuwei to open it, warmly saying, "Sister Shen, I noticed that your hairstyle is too plain, so I thought I'd gift you a set of hairpins."

Xu Chenghui looked over out of curiosity and saw that the brocade box contained a set of peach blossom hairpins, all exquisitely designed.

"Sister Tao is quite generous indeed." But in her heart, she snorted disdainfully, presuming that Tao was eagerly currying favor with Shen Chuwei.
