It was instantly displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing? Hurry up and absorb his luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenwan frowned. \"Just a little is enough. If I take too much at once, people will get suspicious of me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That makes sense,’ the System thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It could wait a little longer.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’After all, it had already waited for so many years.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It glanced at Xu Wenwan, made a few casual adjustments, and she instantly became a little prettier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She radiated a healthy glow, as if a succubus had just drained a man of his vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Hao looked at Xu Wenwan, who now seemed significantly prettier, and felt a profound sense of strangeness. She hadn’t seemed this beautiful when she first came in, but in just a few short moments, her looks had improved considerably. Yet when he studied her carefully, he felt like nothing had changed at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking it over, he realized her skin seemed to have lightened quite a bit. Her eyes and brows were less noticeable because they were red from crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Hao thought it was absurd. ’How could someone’s skin lighten in an instant?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’The village office must have been too dark. I probably just didn’t get a good look at her earlier.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them left the village office and were spotted by quite a few villagers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those people couldn’t help but purse their lips in disapproval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a young woman to be with a man all day, completely inseparable—it was simply a disgrace to public decency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they really liked each other, they should make it official.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they hadn’t made their relationship official but were still always together, wasn’t that just shameless behavior?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Society was always especially harsh on girls, particularly in such a conservative era.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenwan hadn’t been back long and hadn’t interacted much with the villagers, so she had no idea her reputation was already in tatters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any family with a son would have their boy’s ear pulled while being sternly warned, \"You can marry anyone but a girl like Xu Wenwan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Wenwan couldn’t care less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were to actually hear people saying such things,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...she would just think they were feudal-minded old fossils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She continued to chat with Yun Hao, completely absorbed in their conversation and ignoring the stares around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, a group of girls walked past. The one in the middle, who had the most delicate features, wore her hair in two braids and had on a red padded jacket that made her look quite pretty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Shu, you look so good in that red jacket! It makes your skin look so fair and rosy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know, right? But I still think Gu Jiaojiao is the one who looks best in red...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the girl could finish, the person next to her jabbed her with an elbow. The girl looked completely baffled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What was that for? You just elbowed me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl who had nudged her was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this girl blind?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Can’t she see that Sun Yeshu’s face is as black as the bottom of a pot, and she’s still running her mouth?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all girls of a similar age from the village who had grown up together. Sun Yeshu had always been the prettiest among them, even earning the title of \"village belle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young men in the village would often sneak glances at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ever since Gu Jiaojiao arrived, no one called Sun Yeshu the village belle anymore. Sun Yeshu, for her part, couldn’t stand Gu Jiaojiao and frequently bad-mouthed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Praising Gu Jiaojiao right in front of Sun Yeshu... Is she nuts?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But I’m not wrong,’ the girl thought. ’Gu Jiaojiao really does look the best in red.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Especially on her wedding day.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Sun Yeshu and the others hadn’t gone, but I secretly tagged along with my mother. Gu Jiaojiao’s skin was so dewy and fresh, and with the red silk on, she looked like she had stepped right out of a painting.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she was smart enough to keep these thoughts to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Sun Yeshu’s darkened expression, she quickly tried to smooth things over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter how pretty Gu Jiaojiao is, she’s married now. Among all the unmarried girls, our Ye Shu is still the prettiest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other girls quickly chimed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, yes, that’s right! Among the unmarried girls, Ye Shu is definitely the most beautiful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yeshu’s expression finally softened. Just as she was about to offer a few modest words, she looked up and saw Xu Wenwan and Yun Hao walking toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>",785,"2026-06-05T18:11:09.760Z",1,"novelbin.me","c9a1e2841a8e550d8d0cd69ee05c7c8ff464f49d22e73e847281fe25176a619f","the-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-chapter-282","the-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-chapter-281",407,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-delicate-darling-with-her-rough-man-cover.jpg"]
