Staying in the city was Sun Dexiang's dream. She leaned on her mother's shoulder and confessed shyly, "Mom, the reason I'm not interested in Jing Wu is that I'm interested in someone else."
"Who?" Sun's mother's heart jumped. 'Interested in someone else? Who could it be?' she wondered, mentally running through the possibilities.
Sun Dexiang nuzzled against her mother's shoulder, her face beet red with shyness. When her mother saw this, she had a bad feeling.
"Who is it?" Sun's mother pressed urgently, her heart pounding in her chest.
"It's..." Sun Dexiang was too embarrassed to say it. Under her mother's urging, she bit her lip, steeled herself, leaned close to her mother's ear, and whispered, "Fourth Brother."
"'Fourth Brother?' Who's that?" Sun's mother didn't register it at first. But a second later, realization dawned. She shot to her feet and stared at Sun Dexiang in disbelief. "You..."
'Fourth Brother... Jing Si. The girl has actually fallen for Jing Si.'
