Su Wen paused, casting a discerning gaze at Yao Fang, her eyes betraying a subtle surprise at Yao Fang’s unexpected display of integrity.

Under the scrutiny of Su Wen’s penetrating stare, Yao Fang felt a sense of unease. “What are you looking at? I’m not letting you go for your good. If something happens to you, who will I ask for money from?”

“That’s true!” Su Wen chuckled at her thoughts. After straightening up, she positioned herself by the door with a flashlight, patiently awaiting Zhou Hengyang.

“Are you going?

“Yes, I have to go.” Su Wen glanced at Yao Fang and raised her eyebrows. “After tonight, you might not have to run away with anyone.”

Yao Fang was taken aback by the implications of Su Wen’s words, her face paling. “What do you mean?

“Nothing,” Su Wen casually deflected. “It’s not easy for a woman,” she remarked casually, “It’s harder for a widow. It’s even more challenging if a widow wants to run away with a man. It’s fine if the man can be relied on, but what if he can’t?”

Su Wen leaned forward abruptly as she posed the last question.

Yao Fang took a step back, her eyes growing hesitant. “Think about it. If life becomes tough, and there are numerous temptations in the outside world, what would the man who runs away with you do?”

“What will he do?” Yao Fang asked involuntarily.

‘Maybe he’ll coerce you into selling yourself to support him, or maybe he’ll abandon you to climb the social ladder? Or perhaps he’ll find someone younger and more easily deceived?” Su Wen thought of the Su family’s fate in the novel and chuckled at herself.

She wasn’t trying to frighten them, she was responding to Yao Fang’s earlier remarks.

It would be in Yao Fang’s best interest to heed Su Wen’s advice. If she couldn’t, then it was her fate.

She couldn’t blame anyone.

“Impossible. He’s not that kind of person. It’s impossible.” The more Yao Fang considered it, the more agitated she became. Yet, for some reason, Su Wen’s words seemed to be etched in her mind, becoming clearer.

“How is it impossible?”

As Su Wen spoke, Zhou Hengyang approached. Her eyes lit up when she saw his outfit, filled with admiration.

He was exceptionally handsome!

Though aware of Hengyang’s attractiveness and height, the new attire added a layer of cold and domineering charm. He was simply captivating.

Zhou Hengyang’s suit resembled his military uniform before retiring. The style and quality were different from common attire, making it clear that wearing a retired military uniform was a source of pride in the 1970s.

The outfit worn by Zhou Hengyang was designed for ease of movement, the kind that would effortlessly blend into the woods, making it nearly impossible to spot anyone. Devoid of any distinctive markings or identifiers, it was evident that this attire was not meant to draw attention or break any taboos.

Masculine, tall, handsome, cool…

Su Wen was so attracted to him that she couldn’t look away.

“Cough cough!” Zhou Hengyang cleared his throat, drawing Su Wen’s wandering thoughts back.

“Uh…” Su Wen concealed her embarrassment and gestured towards Zhou Hengyang. “Ask him. Men understand men best.”

Yao Fang, uneasy in front of Zhou Hengyang, glanced at him nervously. Unlike Su Wen, she couldn’t let her guard down.

Zhou Hengyang glanced at Su Wen and said in a serious tone, “A man who chooses to run away with a woman is not a good man..”
