Ever since the old man’s death, Madam Ruan rarely brought him up. Since she didn’t talk about him, neither did anyone else for fear of angering her.

Madam Ruan initiated the conversation, and that was only when everyone knew that this was why Madam Ruan had loved wearing qipaos.

Just because of a compliment from her husband, Madam Ruan wore qipao for the rest of her life. Madam Ruan was the extreme embodiment of the phrase, “You do anything to please the person that you love”.

If not for Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu’s mother’s appearance, they would have been a happy pair.

Rumor had it that the second wife had climbed into Mr. Ruan’s bed using underhanded means. They were just rumors though. As to what really happened back then, only Old Mr. Ruan, Madam Ruan, and the second wife knew.

A hush of silence rushed through the room. The eyes looking at Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu became accusatory.

Feeling the tense glances from others, Ruan Guosheng and Ruan Guofu’s faces fell.

Madam Ruan waved her hands at Ling Tianya. “Young la.s.s, bring the qipao closer.”

Ling Tianya obediently brought the qipao to Madam Ruan, and Madam Ruan reached out her hand, lightly caressing it as though it was the most valuable treasure.

“The original one I had was ruined in an accident, and it was a regret I always had. It’s great to be able to see it again!” Madam Ruan raised her teary eyes, looked towards Ling Tianya appreciatively. “How did you know about this qipao?”

“When Zeyan brought me back to your home to pay respects to the elders, I saw a picture of you and grandpa when you were younger hanging on the living room’s wall. In the photo, you were wearing a qipao just like this, and smiling exceptionally beautifully. The pictures were all in black and white, and I couldn’t determine the exact color of qipao.”
