Zhao Guihua was momentarily distracted, but she quickly joined the ongoing discussion. Aunt Zhou, always quick to comment after the fact, said, "I always thought Tao Yuyue seemed like a troublemaker. I could tell the first time she came to our courtyard."
Aunt Wang nodded in agreement. "I saw it too. What kind of girl acts so boldly? Back then, she and Chen Yuan had that huge fight, and she didn't back down at all. I knew right then that she wasn't someone to mess with. Looks like I was right after all."
Here comes the second round of hindsight.
He Lan chimed in, "I think so too. She's really something. I still remember her beating Chen Yuan with a frying pan. It's no surprise she's so tough."
And here's the third round of hindsight.
The others continued to chatter away.
Zhao Guihua said, "Alright, alright, you all knew it, you're all so clever. I'm the only one who didn't see it, okay?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
