As soon as Xu Xiaoyan suggested walking to the county town together, Yan Fei immediately opposed it: "That's quite a distance, you're wearing high heels, can you manage?"
She was heading off today to submit her university choices, dressed in clothes she had painstakingly selected. Although she intended initially to take the bus, she wore a simple pink long-sleeved shirt, a pair of white slacks, and her hair in the same old ponytail. It wasn't much of an outfit.
But Yan Fei could tell she had put effort into it.
His nose was sensitive. He had detected a faint fragrance early on and easily identified it as the scent of vanishing cream, based on his extraordinary sense of smell. His own mother had some. She would apply a dab now and then, as if a touch of it made her more beautiful.
He had never smelled this scent on Xu Xiaoyan before. Surely, she wouldn't buy such a "luxury item". Perhaps one of her sisters brought it home, and she secretly borrowed it to pamper herself!
