Qiao Xiaomai was busy in the kitchen, kneading dough to make pastries, when the vile words of the Zhang Family filled her ears. She pressed her lips tightly together and stopped her movements.
Her gaze fixated on the flour in her hands, her heart, already bitter and suffocated, felt as if it had been invaded by the bitterness of Coptis Chinensis.
Thinking of her own situation, she bit her lip, a total mess, truly a total mess.
Bei Lingsu was out there achieving great things, while she could only nest in the kitchen like a chef—and the root of it all was because she fancied Tong Sancha.
Fancying Tong Sancha, she fell into the throes of love, so at the time, she dated him, risking her life, ignoring the trouble brought by such "outstanding" individuals as the Zhang Family, Tong Xingda, and Zhu Hongyun, and married him without a second thought.
