After Su Qingqing left, Xiao Lian couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, is it really good to test her like this?"

"If she wants to become a daughter-in-law of the Lin Family, she must understand how to respect the elderly and love the young, honor the elders; if she can't even endure this bit of hardship, then she doesn't deserve to enter this family," Zhou Jiajia answered with impartial severity.

Seeing Zhou Jiajia's fierce expression, Xiao Lian didn't dare say more, afraid of angering her further.

However, Zhou Jiajia was actually harsh in words but soft at heart; although she was strict and demanding outwardly, deep down she still felt very sorry for Su Qingqing.

"I hope all this isn't just endured by her."

She would absolutely not associate with those who were cruel and scheming at heart; so she hoped that the true disposition Su Qingqing showed was genuine.

Since Xiao Lian had lived with Su Qingqing for a while, she should know some of Su Qingqing's character; thus, she consulted Xiao Lian, asking what kind of person Su Qingqing was in everyday life?

Xiao Lian replied without omitting a word, but her answers were all about merits and not a single flaw.

"So perfect, doesn't she have any flaws?" Zhou Jiajia was extremely surprised, finding it a bit hard to believe.

"Yes, she does! It's that she's too kind-hearted; not only does she worry and work hard for your matters, but she also worries and works hard for a troublemaker like me. Therefore, it's fair to say that Qingqing has also made many sacrifices for this family."

Xiao Lian replied, hoping that Zhou Jiajia would understand and sympathize with Su Qingqing's hard work.

"It turns out she's someone who dares to love and hate, giving everything for love."

Zhou Jiajia murmured to herself, gaining a deeper understanding of Su Qingqing.

Meanwhile, Su Qingqing, who had gone out to buy ice cream, kept shuttling through the streets and alleys, searching for any sign of ice cream.

She had been to several large supermarkets, convenience stores, snack shops, and general stores; but she hadn't spotted any ice cream.

The season was at a point where very few people sold ice cream anymore, so most shops wouldn't stock it.

However, she didn't lose heart and continued her search, scouring East City District then moving on to Sorth City District, and from there to the west district, as she refused to believe that all the stores in Guiyuan City had taken ice cream off their shelves.

Maybe the heavens were moved by her persistence, and soon they allowed her to find the ice cream.

She immediately purchased an entire box and then carried it straight back.

This box of ice cream was carefully chosen by her, containing various kinds of ice cream; she didn't believe Zhou Jiajia could find any fault with it.

After placing the ice cream in the car, she drove back to the villa.

It took her about fifteen minutes to return to the villa.

Upon arrival, she immediately used her small frame to lift the box of ice cream, weighing over ten pounds, and slowly walked towards the entrance of the villa.

"Sister! The ice cream you wanted is here!"

As soon as she entered the house, she announced the news loudly, without a hint of complaint.

Seeing Su Qingqing enter drenched in sweat, holding a box of ice cream, Xiao Lian felt a pang of pity; such a delicate woman really shouldn't be doing such rough work, it was truly suffering.

On the other side, Zhou Jiajia was touched, not expecting Su Qingqing to really accomplish the task; and to bring back an entire box, it was truly full of sincerity! It made it impossible for her to complain or find fault.

"Bang!"

After setting the box of ice cream on the ground, Su Qingqing began to ask with a beaming smile, "Sister! There are so many types of ice cream here, which one do you want to try?"

Gazing at that delicate face which showed no resentment but instead radiated a brilliant smile, Zhou Jiajia suddenly felt a warm surge rise from the bottom of her heart, nearly reaching her eyes and almost causing her tears to overflow.

However, she ultimately held it back; she still had one final test to administer; therefore, she couldn't declare her acceptance of Su Qingqing too soon.

"Pick out the kind of ice cream Yifan likes most, I want to taste his preference," Zhou Jiajia responded.

This was a test; if Su Qingqing truly cared for Lin Yifan, she should know which type of ice cream he preferred.

Upon hearing this request, Su Qingqing easily found a type of ice cream. It was chocolate peanut ice cream, Lin Yifan's favorite, and she was confident that it was the right choice.

Seeing the coffee-colored ice cream with peanut pieces that Su Qingqing held, Zhou Jiajia nodded in satisfaction.

Indeed, this was the ice cream that Lin Yifan liked; there was no mistake.

After deliciously finishing an ice cream, Zhou Jiajia began the last difficult question.

"Little Qing, my feet are sore and aching, prepare a foot bath for me," she requested.

"Sure thing! I'll bring hot water for sister right away," Su Qingqing readily replied.

Having endured the hardships of the day, she couldn't just collapse in the final round; therefore, she needed to adjust her mindset and strive to complete this task.

After Su Qingqing left, Xiao Lian asked in surprise, "Sister-in-law! Are you still testing her?"

She thought that Zhou Jiajia was moved and would stop the tests, but she hadn't realized there was still one more to go.

"This is the last test. I want to see if she can endure work fit for a servant," Zhou Jiajia answered.

Lin Yifan had told her that to be with him, Su Qingqing was willing to become her servant; it was a promise made by Su Qingqing herself; therefore, she couldn't be blamed for being heartless.

The hot water was brought quickly, and the temperature had been adjusted just right; then, Su Qingqing personally removed Zhou Jiajia's high heels; afterwards, she placed Zhou Jiajia's pair of jade feet into the basin for soaking.

As soon as her feet were immersed in the basin with hot water, Zhou Jiajia couldn't help it; because it was simply too comfortable; the feeling of being surrounded by hot water made one feel invigorated, relaxed body and soul, and the fatigue dissipated.

After placing Zhou Jiajia's jade feet into the bucket, Su Qingqing extended her own delicate hands and tirelessly washed Zhou Jiajia's feet, demonstrating meticulous care.

A while later, having finished washing the feet, Su Qingqing first dried the water off Zhou Jiajia's feet with a dry towel; then she began to massage each foot one after the other.

The waves of soreness that came from her soles directly struck her soul, making her utterly enamored.

Su Qingqing's massage skills were so impressive that she had been thoroughly conquered.

"Oh my! Are you that excited?" Xiao Lian was speechless.

Now she had goosebumps all over, feeling incredibly uneasy.

"Big sister! Does it feel good?" Su Qingqing asked curiously.

"Good! Very good!" Zhou Jiajia replied, breathing heavily.

"Then shall I make it even more comfortable for you?" Su Qingqing sought Zhou Jiajia's opinion.

"Yes, yes!" Zhou Jiajia was already disoriented, anyway, whatever Su Qingqing wanted to do, she would agree to it.
