"After getting a scolding, I had no choice but to behave. My mother can be quite formidable," Ling Hua sighed.
"Didn't you resist at all?"
Ling Hua sighed even more, "My mother said that being good-looking is just a skin-deep matter. I wasn't convinced, for if my father wasn't handsome, would my mother have married him? When I said I lacked the motivation to look at the account books, she told me to study them properly, for the Delicacies Pavilion will be mine someday. She warned me not to let it go bankrupt on my watch, and said that one day, when you visit, the shopkeeper will treat you the same, giving you freebies. A lifetime of freebies."
Yan Qing: "..."
His feelings were complicated, "And you just accepted that?"
