Chapter 939: Just As Classmates....

“The Spring Festival launch demands fresh designs suitable for the winter season. We can’t overlook this aspect. While we don’t need many designs, each one must possess distinct elements. Every design should stand out from the rest…”
“Oh, by the way, I won’t be at the studio tomorrow. Little Aunt has arranged my first signing event for tomorrow. They’ve been planning it for a while. Since it’s the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow, and many people will be off, the attendance will be good. I won’t be back for lunch. Wait for me to come home tonight to enjoy mooncakes and gaze at the moon.”
A pang of loneliness flickered in Su Wen’s eyes at the thought of indulging in mooncakes and moon-gazing.
This would be her first Mid-Autumn Festival since she transmigrated! During the Dragon Boat Festival, they were too preoccupied with earning money due to financial constraints, so they couldn’t fully enjoy themselves.
“Great! I’ll head home early tomorrow to assist Su Xiu.”
“Oh, and don’t forget to invite Yao Fang and Pingping to our place. They’ve recently arrived in the province and have nowhere to go.”
“Got it! I’ll do that,” Su Qing affirmed, subtly observing Su Wen. She wanted to say something but decided against it, opting for a different approach. “Big sister, remember to give brother-in-law a call tomorrow. I wonder how he’s doing over there.”
“I hope we can reach him. It’s not as convenient as it is in the province,” Su Wen said unless Hengyang called her.
“Let’s give it a try!” Su Qing’s heart skipped a beat. She reckoned that Lin Weiguo would likely have the day off tomorrow. She pondered how he would spend the holiday. Since his home was in the province, he probably stayed there.
After all, he wasn’t his father’s biological son, so it might feel awkward at his stepfather’s house.
“Big sister, can I invite Lin Weiguo over for dinner tomorrow?”
“Of course you can,” Su Wen chuckled. “Don’t hesitate to ask me about such things in the future. I’ll always support you.”
“Thank you!” Su Qing’s eyes sparkled. “Lin Weiguo mentioned that he rarely returns home, and his relationship with his stepfather isn’t great. I don’t want him to feel unhappy during the holidays.”
“Already feeling for him, huh?” Su Wen teased.
Blushing, Su Qing averted her gaze. “No, Big sister, you’re just making things up.”
“Okay. I was just teasing,” Su Wen chuckled. “But seriously, Su Qing, don’t be too shy! Let me tell you, women need to take the initiative. It’s true! I was the one who initiated conversations with your brother-in-law. If I hadn’t taken the first step, he might have kept his distance.”
“Really?” Su Qing asked incredulously.
“Absolutely,” Su Wen affirmed, sharing how she had written a letter to Zhou Hengyang and sent him a photo. “Although I didn’t have romantic intentions at the time, I wanted to strengthen our bond first. It worked out well in the end.
Trust me, it’s a good thing I made the first move.”
Otherwise, she might have lost him.
“Anything else?”
“And… well, your brother-in-law’s looks and physique are just too captivating. I can’t take my eyes off him!” Su Wen joked, pretending to suddenly realize something as she playfully tapped her forehead. “Can you believe it? I used to overlook him. I didn’t find him attractive back then.”
Su Wen’s revelation shook Su Qing’s perspective. It took her a moment to process. “It’s not that I didn’t find him attractive back then. It’s just that… you didn’t want to find a son-in-law to live with us. Plus, Father brought him back.
At the time…”
She had initially favoured Zhao Jiangang, but she quickly changed her mind. “Anyway, things are great now! Fate works in mysterious ways.” Just like her and Lin Weiguo, she hadn’t expected to develop feelings initially.
“Just classmates. ”
Yet after learning the truth, she struggled to draw boundaries but ended up entangled.
Lin Weiguo wasn’t her ideal match, but she found genuine happiness with him.
As Su Wen spoke, Su Qing listened attentively, inadvertently making her way to the door.
“Big sister.”
“We’re back, Big sister.”
It turned out that Xu Xiaoxiao was waiting at the door with her sixth sister and Ji Fang..
