“Alright, stop with the fake tears. I can see no real crying going on,” Su Wen exposed the charade mercilessly.

“Okay then! I’ll listen to Big sister. No more tears,” the younger sister responded, growing more shameless by the minute. She wasn’t even embarra.s.sed when her fake tears were called out, instead using the opportunity to act cute with Su Wen. “Big sister, see how obedient I am. Do you love me the most?”

“I…” Su Wen began but halted as she noticed all her sisters looking at her expectantly.

Su Wen was at a loss for words.

“Big sister still has me,” Su Qing interjected, having just rushed back and joined the conversation. Su Wen thought, “I can’t keep living like this.”

After dinner and mooncake sharing, the Mid-Autumn Festival came to a close. It was meant to be a family reunion, but the Fifth sister didn’t return from school, and Zhou Hengyang was still in the northwest. Su Wen stayed in the study until late, hoping for a call that never came.

After waiting for so long, she had expected to hear from him.

In her notebook, Su Wen had written repeatedly, “I miss you, I miss you so much.”

The next day, Su Wen slept in. Before she could rise, Zhou Yan burst into the house, waking her up.

“Little Aunt?” Su Wen opened the door in her pyjamas, only to realize it was raining outside, making her even more reluctant to leave her bed.

Rainy days were made for sleeping!

She opened the door, turned back to her bedroom, and went back into bed to catch up on her sleep.

She loved sleeping in. During her time at the Trinity Village, she never rose after Hengyang finished training. She was too busy in the provincial capital, often working late into the night and waking up early.

Zhou Yan followed her into the bedroom, holding a newspaper excitedly. “Look, Wen Wen, your article is out. The morning news is surprisingly quick this time. It was supposed to be published tomorrow, but it’s already out today.”

Su Wen wasn’t surprised. “Even if the morning news didn’t release it, others would. They’d be foolish to let someone else scoop it.”

Yesterday’s incident was big news. It was the first time such a large-scale signing event had occurred, leading the industry.

“Why aren’t you more surprised?” Zhou Yan rolled her eyes. “You should at least show some excitement!”

“I am surprised,” Su Wen replied with a fake smile worthy of a movie star. “But we won’t see the real impact until later. We’ll have to wait and see how it unfolds over time. We’ll need to monitor each report.”

“True,” Zhou Yan agreed. “But the paper praised you like a superstar.”

“Let me see.” Su Wen feigned interest, though it was her first mainstream publication.

After scanning the article, she commented, “As expected from a mainstream paper. The writing is neutral, but they praise our business model. They credit us with giving the industry a solid start since the economic reforms. And I bet the publis.h.i.+ng firm received many orders today, right?”

“Smart observation,” Zhou Yan said proudly, tapping Su Wen’s forehead. “Yes, lots of orders. This publicity is just what we discussed. Your presence at yesterday’s signing event, along with your charm, exceeded everyone’s expectations.” she said.
