The only one having a rough time was Zhou Pingyuan. After the mess Dong Yujiao had created, the child was gone, and Zhou found his wife to be utterly unreasonable. His efforts and contributions were dismissed and taken for granted. His heart grew cold, and he never visited Dong Yujiao after she was taken away.
Su Xiaowan was busy and had no time to worry about minor matters, not even the fact that Han Dongchen no longer shared a room with her. She almost finished her book, a long martial arts novel of three hundred thousand words entitled "The Fame of the Jianghu". The manuscript was to be sent off the day after it was completed.
Her days were fulfilling. Once her novel was sent off, she had several days of leisure. She would take strolls in the vegetable garden, weeding and studying recipes to cook delicious meals. The only annoyance was that her skin had become fairer, and she seemed to have grown taller, but she didn't put on weight.
