Chapter 1374: Chapter 1374: Grow a Year Older

The day after the Yuanxiao Festival, Su Qing took Fang Shuai to the Capital on a business trip, and Su Wen, who had been resting at home, took over the management of the studio. However, her belly was growing larger by the day, and she found it increasingly inconvenient to move around.

She didn’t go every day.

It depended on the circumstances and her mood.

Little sister and sixth sister came back, this time Xiaoxiao had picked them up to spend the New Year in the Capital, and the two girls had an absolute blast.

“Big sister, let me tell you, I saw Xiaoya, hahaha…” As soon as the car door opened, little sister jumped out and hurried over to Su Wen, intending to hug her, but was swiftly blocked by Zhou Hengyang.

All she could do was to look woefully at big sister and brother-in-law.

Wuwuwu… She had known it would be like this. Brother-in-law was mean; he must have stolen the most favored spot in big sister’s heart while she was away.

“Big sister.” Little sister’s lips were so puckered she could almost hang an oil bottle from them.

“If you have something to say, just say it.” For the first time, Su Wen was stern with little sister. She doted on little sister, but couldn’t spoil her rotten, letting her go astray. “You’re practically a grown woman now, you should pay attention to your image. Look at your sixth sister, then look at yourself.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than sixth sister entered, the delicate and pretty girl already possessed a certain grace in her stride.

She truly had the makings of a future beauty.

“Big sister, brother-in-law,” sixth sister greeted quietly and politely.

Su Wen’s eyes lit up, “You’ve changed so much just from one trip to the Capital?”

“Big sister, I turned one year older!” Sixth sister said shyly.

Feeling unconvinced, little sister whispered in complaints to Su Wen, telling all about the New Year’s celebrations at the Capital, mostly about sixth sister and the Xu family’s relatives, a bunch of girls competing in beauty, pitting against each other without yielding.

In conclusion, “She won, everyone who came to visit left crying.” After summing it up, she sighed like an old soul, worriedly asking, “Big sister, I’ve realized I really can’t compete with sixth sister, my brain isn’t as smart as hers, even though I don’t want to admit it. Will you still like me in the future?”

She finished, looking at Su Wen with pitiful, anxious eyes.

Fearing she couldn’t compete with sixth sister and would lose big sister’s affection.

“Big sister, if I can’t match up to sixth sister, am I still your favorite little treasure?”

Sixth sister appeared shy and gentle on the surface, but inwardly, she had rolled her eyes countless times. Only by holding it in did she not bother to argue with little sister.

Really shameless, still trying to be big sister’s favorite little treasure.

Hmph! For the sake of her soon-to-be-born little nephew, she wouldn’t compete.

Anyway, once the little nephew was born, little sister would lose favor anyway, so she might as well let her be happy for a few months!

Su Wen pondered, and from the corner of her eye, she noticed Zhou Hengyang standing coldly to one side, silent but with an unmistakable presence. If only his cold gaze wasn’t fixed on her, it’d be much better.

These are the troubles of sweetness!

If she responded to little sister now, wouldn’t a certain someone die of jealousy?

“Er…”

When Su Wen remained silent, little sister’s tears were about to fall, tugging at Su Wen’s hand in distress, “Big sister, I knew I shouldn’t have left. In just over half a month since I went to the Capital, you’ve changed. Humph! I won’t go anywhere else in the future.”

“That’s not it!” Oh dear, what a headache. “You’ve grown up, and from now on, my favorite little treasure will only be this one.” She finished, pointing to her belly.

Little sister was flabbergasted and after being dazed for a while, she reluctantly said, “Fine! For the sake of my nephew, I’ll step back!” As long as she wasn’t overtaken by sixth sister, it was okay.
