The Cannon Fodder and Villain’s Happy Ending
chapter-47

As far as these noble ladies were concerned, Qin Gui was doomed to have an indelible barrier with them even if Qin Gui was a noble as she grew up in the countryside. She would never be able to mingle in their circle.

To put it bluntly, no one in the capital from upper families would marry a girl like Qin Gui!

“…” Qin Gui remained silent.

She couldn’t help but notice that everything was proceeding almost exactly like when the original character of the novel was just brought back.

The original character grew up in an environment where she had never learned piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or etiquette, nor had she learned how to handle herself socially. She became even more at a loss before the amazing background of Qin Xin.

This had pushed the desperate original character to another hell.

But Qin Gui wasn’t the original character.

She didn’t want to get involved with the original plot but that didn’t mean that she would let anyone step on her.

Qin Gui looked back at Princess Yingluo without shying away.

Her pretty apricot eyes were adorned with beautiful arcs and long and dense eyelashes. Her dark pupils were clear and bright like the blue sky after the rain.

Princess Yinglou seemed unaffected but she was slightly surprised in her heart.

Originally, she believed Qin Gui to be just a bumpkin who grew up in the countryside, who would flinch away in front a dignified princess like her and get angry like a kid. But the girl before her was completely different from what she had imagined.

Her elegance had a bit of smartness. She was natural and graceful.

Qin Gui’s calm and restful gaze caused some of the judging gazes to lose interest.

They simply stop paying attention to Qin Gui. They gathered around and started talking merrily, making a clear distinction with her.

After some time, many more girls joined them, one after another.

When they noticed Qin Gui’s unfamiliar face, they inquired about her a bit before avoiding her as if they were afraid of getting contaminated by her countryside spirit.

The ladies either admired flowers, chatted with each other, listened to music, or played pitch-pot merrily.

Qin Gui, on the other hand, leaned on the railing of the pavilion alone, feeding the fishes in the pond leisurely.

Since she had returned to the Qin Family, she would have to face this situation sooner or later. Therefore, when Qin Sheng invited her to come here, she did not refuse even if she knew that all Qin Sheng wanted was to embarrass her.

She had returned to Qin Family but not for locking herself up for the rest of her life.

As soon as the tempting fish food was thrown into the pool, goldfishes swung their tails as they swarmed to grab the food, creating ripples in the pool, one after another.

“Third Sister, why are you feeding fishes over here?” At this moment, Qin Sheng walked over with a magnanimous demeanor and said with a smile, “Second Sister is painting over there. Third Sister, how about we go and take a look?”

“We are all sisters. Even if Third Sister is ashamed of herself, you should go and watch. Otherwise, people will think that we sisters are at odds. Don’t you think so, Third Sister?”

Qin Sheng was smiling but her contempt for Qin Gui was obvious in her words. Several of the ladies in the vicinity had heard her loud and clear; they immediately glanced at each other with interest.

“Fourth Sister is right.” Qin Gui threw the last of fish food into the pound and said in a stern voice, “We sisters are indeed at odds.”

Qin Sheng’s smile froze immediately after hearing this.

A nearby lady in red couldn’t help but chuckle.

Qin Sheng’s face grew even stiffer. She asked in a firm manner, “Are you coming or not?”
