Chapter Twenty-Six: Only This Face Is Worth Looking At

Yuan Siyin had never been so speechless in her life.

The probability of this random event triggering is too high.

If she shows her face, everyone in the palace will inevitably speak ill of her behind her back, right?

"I heard from my brothers in the same clan that Yuan Siyin is not only arrogant and haughty, but I also heard that she secretly..."

The women's voices immediately fell silent, as if they were whispering in each other's ears.

I have to say, it's quite exciting to eavesdrop on other people talking about you.

Yuan Siyin pressed her ear against the artificial hill, trying to hear more clearly, but unexpectedly a very soft sound came from behind her.

"Sister Yuan actually listens to gossip behind people's backs?"

Yuan Siyin was startled. She turned around and saw that it was Qi Xinxin. She breathed a sigh of relief and calmly waved her hand, "Weren't you eavesdropping too? What's the big deal?"

Qi Xinxin's eyes widened in disbelief: "But the person they were discussing was..."

As if she had thought of something, she fell silent and simply took out a light gauze handkerchief from her sleeve.

"Isn't this the piece I dropped?"

Yuan Siyin accepted it with some surprise.

"Yes, I happened to find it. I just didn't know if my sister would come back to look for it, so I waited here. I didn't expect my sister to come back."

"You can just send someone to give it to me, but thank you anyway."

Looking at Yuan Siyin's delicate, smiling eyes, Qi Xinxin's face flushed slightly, as if she were a little shy: "After all, the embroidery is so skillful, you must have put in a lot of effort, sister."

I had originally planned that if my sister didn't come back... I would keep it...

"I can't embroider these mandarin ducks and peonies. I prefer drooling ducks."

Yuan Siyin shrugged and stuffed the handkerchief back into her hand. "If you like it, then keep it. Anyway, this was embroidered by Ziyuan as a gift, so it won't make her say I have no one to give me gifts when I get back."

Qi Xinxin was surprised by her words and paused for a moment before covering her mouth and bursting into laughter.

"Sister Yuan is not the same person they are talking about at all."

"Yes and no, you can think of me as that kind of person."

Although I hate to admit it, what the original owner did really happened.

Even if she is now "Yuan Siyin", she cannot change the past, nor can she change everyone's opinion of her.

"Sister Yuan isn't a bad person, at least that's what I think."

Qi Xinxin puffed out her cheeks and spoke with utmost seriousness.

How did you figure that out?

"Face."

Yuan Siyin: "..."

Goodness, she knew it.

That's the only thing she's good-looking about.

However, Yuan Siyin didn't have time to worry about such trivial matters right now.

Because she was already holding Qi Xinxin so affectionately that she started pinching her little face.

To be honest, she just likes cute girls who are petite and adorable.

Isn't this better than the cold-faced male lead?

Qi Xinxin's face was being squeezed, but she still managed to pull out a handkerchief she had embroidered and stuff it into Yuan Siyin's hand: "Yuan... Sister, this handkerchief is too much for me."

"Don't call me Sister Yuan anymore, it sounds awful. Just call me Siyin."

"Ooh...howling!"

Yuan Siyin patted her shoulder casually, acting like a big sister: "By the way, where do you live in the capital? I'm bored in the palace by myself anyway, I'll come find you next time I leave the palace."

Or I could ask my aunt to bring you into the palace as well.

"Alright, then Xinxin will wait for her older sister."

Qi Xinxin smiled sweetly, covering the handkerchief that Yuan Siyin had given her tightly.
