The incident turned out to be much more exciting than listening to her two half-sisters talk about the latest fashion and jewelry trends for hours on end. Tan Xiuying didn't pay much attention to the constantly changing trends unless they were important to her.
Falling into Zhu Longwei's arms felt much more exciting than reading a book all afternoon, with Second Aunt snoring in her chair and her embroidery half-done. Or those lonely mornings when she had no one to talk to while everyone else was busy with city gossip.
Just moments earlier, Zhu Longwei hadn't anticipated such an unexpected event.
When he saw Tan Jiuying struggling to get out of the carriage, he took a few steps forward to help her. But he was taken off guard when she fell down towards him and hit him.
