Protagonist:

Lin Xiyu

"You've secretly loved him for a long time?"

Her female cousin's mind worked in strange ways, catching a different meaning.

"Uh."

Lin Xiyu felt awkward, her ears turning red: "Is that the point?"

"I think this is the most important thing."

Her female cousin analyzed rationally: "Just think about it—he's the person you like, are you willing to watch him be with someone else?"

"No."

"Would it hurt you if he were good to other girls?"

"It would."

"Can you bear to let go and let him pursue someone else?"

"I can't bear it."

"Then that's settled......"

Her female cousin patted her shoulder hard, expressing encouragement in the way of an elder sister: "Since you can't bear it, and don't want to make yourself sad, then give it your all to hold onto him, make yourself better, be qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, and leave no regrets in your youth."

"Mm."

Lin Xiyu's eyes flashed with emotion, and she nodded hard.

——

"The little girl is really pretty, still a student, right? She looks young......"

The two sisters were talking when a woman in her thirties walked over smiling and struck up a conversation with them.

"Yes."

Lin Xiyu saw her looking at her and admitted it frankly.

"You're the boss's wife, right?"

Her female cousin had sharp eyes, recognizing her as the barbecue stall owner's wife, and deliberately tried to get close: "We set up our stall here, causing you trouble."

"What trouble are you talking about."

The boss's wife covered her mouth and laughed: "Doing business is all about popularity; you setting up your stall here also brings us popularity. Those who originally didn't want to eat barbecue at my place, upon seeing such a pretty little girl, their eyes go straight, they can't move their legs, and immediately change their minds......"

"This is mutual benefit."

Her female cousin was glib with words and quickly kept up with the rhythm.

"Exactly, that's right."

The boss's wife smiled even more happily, her gaze shifting from Lin Xiyu to the clothes on the shelves.

"Boss's wife, do you want one? I'll give you a discount......"

Her female cousin reacted instantly, switching into sales mode: "Others pay ten yuan per piece, you just pay nine."

"That's great......"

The boss's wife was delighted to hear it, smiling until her eyes narrowed: "I really like that skirt your younger sister is wearing."

"This one?"

Her female cousin searched among the clothes piled on the tricycle, then shook her head helplessly: "No new ones left. If you want, I'll ask tomorrow to see if there are any in the warehouse?"

"Sigh, if only you'd come a little earlier."

The boss's wife was very regretful: "I wanted to wear it to my class reunion tomorrow."

Lin Xiyu: "You want it, I'll take it off."

"No need."

The boss's wife smiled and stopped her: "Your waist is too thin; I wouldn't fit it properly."

"You're not fat at all......"

Her female cousin gave Lin Xiyu a look, telling her to go change clothes, while she herself spoke sweet as honey: "One look and I can tell you live a comfortable life and take good care of yourself; your little waist is as slim as an unmarried young lady of twenty-one or twenty-two."

"Hahaha."

The boss's wife was so flattered she couldn't close her mouth.

Lin Xiyu took the opportunity to go to the public restroom, took off her short shirt and skirt, changed back into her own clothes, and returned.

"My younger sister wears this size one size larger; the waist is a bit fat."

Her female cousin stuffed the skirt into the boss's wife's hands, pushing it hard: "Try it on first; if it doesn't fit, we'll change to another style. My younger sister has a great eye; let her match it for you, guaranteed you'll find clothes you like......"

"Fine, I'll go change now."

The boss's wife was moved by what she said and agreed very happily
