4594 Never Too Late to Love (1)
Capital city. In a dilapidated residence.
It had just rained heavily, and the air was humid. Other than that, there was also the smell of grass in the air.
It was not a smell that Bai Sheng liked.
She sat at the table and from time to time, would stare out of the window next to it in a daze. She did not like the smell of damp grass in the air, but after a heavy rain, she had to open the window to allow some circulation.
!!The table in front of her was very old. Back when she was in school, this table was filled with revision worksheets and exercise books. After graduation, she tidied it up a little and it became a simple dressing table.
There were some affordable skincare products on it. The most basic hydration was only five yuan per mask. However, for someone who had just graduated and on a salary of only four to five thousand yuan, it was considered a little extravagant. She didn’t dare to be wasteful with things. She would use it every four days, first on her face, then on her neck, followed by knees. In any case, she made full use of everything.
Although she had just graduated and did not draw a high salary, Bai Sheng liked to look beautiful. This was ever since she was a child.
She sat before the mirror and looked into her own reflection, lost in thought.
The 24-year-old Bai Sheng had grown up to be slender and elegant. She was good-looking, a living example of a beauty.
“Bai Sheng! Are you ready?!” Someone shouted from outside.
Bai Sheng lightly patted her face that was stiff from nervousness and hurriedly stood up. “Yes, I am!”
She walked into the narrow living room where a middle-aged woman was waiting for her. She couldn’t help feeling a little disgusted when she noticed that the woman was wearing really plain-looking clothes.
“How can you dress like this for a big event such as a blind date? Don’t you find it embarrassing?”
“Auntie, I don’t have any pretty dresses. This is the most presentable dress I have.” Bai Sheng paused for a moment and probed, “So it’s another blind date? How many blind dates have we gone to this week?”
“I’m glad you realize it! Since you know it, put in more effort. You’re not young anymore. It’s better to get married early!”
Bai Sheng said weakly, “Aunt, I am only 24. There is no rush to get married, right?”
“Just because you’re not in a hurry, doesn’t mean I’m not! How long do you want me to support you?”
Bai Sheng’s breathing suddenly quickened. There had been a few times she wanted to run away from this house. However, she had just started working and did not have much savings. It was not easy for her to accumulate a few thousand yuan, and she could not even pay the rent.
The memories of her childhood were very distant. She vaguely remembered that in the few years she was in kindergarten, her parents were killed in a car accident, along with the child in her mother’s womb. Overnight, she found herself alone without the warm home she used to know. However, as time passed, the pain of losing her parents was no longer as deep.
After that incident, she lived with her grandparents and returned to her hometown to study. However, in the year of junior high school, her grandfather died of lung cancer. That same year, because the blow was too painful, her grandmother died of a heart attack, in front of the ancestral tablet.
From then on, she was kicked around like a ball among her uncles and aunts. In the end, it was the wife of her youngest uncle who was “charitable” enough to provide for the girl.
Her aunt’s family name was Jiang. For inclusion into the official records, Bai Sheng temporarily took her uncle’s surname, and ended up being Jiang Bai Sheng.
She was very grateful for the help that her uncle’s family gave her. At the very least, they provided her with food and clothes. Although it was not the best, they at least supported her till she graduated from the university.
