She knew that everything had passed already. The current Si Yehan wouldn’t have a single ripple in his emotions for something like this anymore, judging from his apathetic attitude toward his mother.

However, how could she allow these people to tarnish the most perfect and wonderful person to her?

At this moment, someone suddenly looked at the entrance and released a quiet exclamation: “Wow… so pretty…”

Soon, more and more exclamations were heard and the other people all turned to the entrance in confusion.

At the end of the golden and resplendent hall, a girl stood there in a retro-style gown. The cuts of the gown were crisp and clean but the details were extremely opulent.

The color and style of this gown were only particularly suited for certain people. The purely hand-embedded pearls and shells dazzlingly glittered under the chandeliers. This was a gown that was eye-catching and luxurious to the point of stealing the thunder of its wearer, but on the girl, it didn’t divert a single ray of light from her.

The girl’s skin was akin to the highest quality white jade, her lips akin to the clouds at sunrise, her hair black as ink. Her shimmering eyes looked like they reflected the vast sky.

Even if she did nothing but stand there, she was as blazing and eye-catching as the scorching sun in the height of summer, pervadingly beautiful.

In contrast, Qin Xiyuan’s elegant lady-like and socialite demeanor turned her invisible.

Qin Xiyuan naturally turned her attention to the entrance as well. When she saw the newcomer there, her expression shifted.

“That woman is…”

In the beginning, Qin Xiyuan’s reaction was instinctive jealousy targeted at this woman’s looks.

Previously, Qin Xiyuan had only seen Ye Wanwan through photos she obtained and never saw the real person. Since the current Ye Wanwan was too different from her photo self, Qin Xiyuan didn’t recognize her at first.

In the end, it was her confidant female servant who reminded her. “Miss, isn’t that woman Worriless Nie? Why is she here?”

Qin Xiyuan was startled and only then did she recognize the woman. “Worriless Nie?!”

Most of Worriless Nie’s photos were taken secretly in her daily life and she was dressed slovenly, so Qin Xiyuan couldn’t link the woman in the photos to this woman in front of her.

As for the other attendees of tonight’s banquet, most of them didn’t know Ye Wanwan, so their attention was wholly sucked by this strange woman.

“My god! Which family’s daughter is she?”

“I don’t know! I’ve never seen her before!”

“Oh my god, what kind of godly good looks are that?! She actually outstripped Miss Qin…” someone quietly said.

Their friend also whispered in agreement: “Miss Qin wasn’t just outstripped! She was absolutely eclipsed!”

Yin Heng was also dumbstruck as he stared at the entrance.

As Qin Xiyuan listened to the discussion around her, her sight landed on the girl. After a moment of scrutiny, unconcealed derision and mockery surfaced in her eyes.

How interesting. There were so many strays in this world, but these strays had no sense of their own limitations. There were some places that only people who possessed absolute status and power could enter. Yet, someone like Worriless Nie had the courage to attend a banquet of this level and act out a scene of a woman traversing thousands of miles to search for their husband. Qin Xiyuan was very willing to be an audience member and watch this clown’s monodrama.

Yin Yuerong’s brows locked together as she stared at the girl at the entrance. “Worriless Nie…?”

Then she shook her head, confusion entering her expression. This girl might be very similar in looks but her temperament made her appear to be a completely different person. This girl’s temperament didn’t belong to an ordinary person.
