Anzhi had never been very willing to reveal her inner thoughts, even from a young age. No matter how upset she was, she would just hide somewhere and cry in secret.

She had no choice but to obediently stay cooped up at home. Yan Xi flicked her forehead and applied a layer of chilled aloe vera gel to her reddened face. She repeatedly reminded her to put on sunscreen properly—if she went out, she had to use a high-SPF one and reapply it. At her age, Anzhi understood the importance of beauty and…
