Li Hua herself was not resistant to this kind of rebirth. Her current life filled her heart with anticipation and strength. She did not know where the path her sister had pointed out to her would lead, but she was certain that it was better than her previous life. This certainty was enough for her; she trusted Gu Zi.
After memorizing the directions, she went to the small shop across the street, run by a woman named Gui Hua. Gui Hua was around the same age as Li Hua, but she looked older and was not as attractive.
When Gui Hua saw Li Hua coming to use the phone, she stood at the door, cracking sunflower seeds in her hand. Her eyes occasionally darted towards Li Hua, comparing their appearances. She was neither thinner nor taller than Gui Hua, so why was she more attractive?
