They come in all colors.

After buying the shoes, I went to get my hair done.

Several months passed, and Song Qingqing's hair grew longer; although it didn't reach her waist yet, it wasn't short either.

Wang Manni asked Tony, the hairstylist, to give Song Qingqing a youthful and radiant hairstyle, and then the two found a place to have lunch.

"Qingqing, eat more, you're too thin." At the dinner table, Wang Manni kept putting food on Song Qingqing's plate.

Song Qingqing quickly said, "I can do it myself, you eat!"

Song Qingqing couldn't adapt to such enthusiasm.

However, her expression was much better than when we first met.

Wang Manni wasn't in a hurry; a ten-year estrangement couldn't be completely broken down in a few moments.

She has time; she can take her time.

While eating, Song Qingqing suddenly had a question: if the Sikong family was a family of exterminators, then what about the Shangguan family?

Never mind, it doesn't really matter anyway.

Anyway, she'll leave after the New Year.

Thinking of this, she continued eating.

Wang Manni felt very proud as she watched Song Qingqing eat her meal obediently.

Look, this beautiful girl is her daughter. I'm so happy just thinking about it.

Fortunately, Song Qingqing was unaware of what Wang Manni's family was really thinking, otherwise she would definitely have said, "They're a family that judges people by their looks."

Before we knew it, it was evening.

The mountain was bustling with activity that day, with servants busy in the hall.

Many people who are usually only seen on television appear here.

They chatted and laughed with Sikong Leiyun, the head of the Sikong family, raising their glasses in celebration.

Meanwhile, the socialites sat together, competing in beauty and showing off their jewelry.

After showing off their items, they started talking about the distinguished guests for the evening.

"What do you think the princess of Lou Kingdom looks like?"

"Who knows? I've never seen her."

"Exotic beauties are certainly beautiful, but I don't know what level they are."

She got off too easy.

"It's outrageous that such a handsome man as Sikong Xingchen was snatched up by a foreign woman."

"That's right, I've had my eye on Brother Xingchen since I was little, but an outsider snatched him away. I'm so angry."

"It's better if the princess of Lou Kingdom gets it, otherwise we might end up fighting."

"Haha, that makes sense. Wouldn't that lead to a fight?"

A few years ago, before the head of the Sikong family made his pronouncement, we saw everyone as an enemy.

"Hahaha......"

The socialites all covered their mouths and chuckled.

Isn't that right?

Before Sikong Xingchen had a confirmed girlfriend, they were all scrambling to win the favor of the number one handsome man and the number one business genius, Sikong Xingchen.

It's not that they're crazy; the only reason to blame is that Sikong Xingchen is just too outrageously handsome.

But speaking of which, why didn't I see Sikong Xingchen?

"Sisters, have you seen Young Master Si? Why haven't I seen him at all?"

"I didn't see it either."

"They probably haven't come out yet!"

"The princess is almost here, and he still hasn't come out? That's impossible!"

"I heard that he was imprisoned by the head of the Sikong family, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"It's possible; we haven't seen him for quite some time."

Have you heard?

"What's wrong?"

"I heard that Young Master Si has taken a fancy to a village girl and doesn't want to marry the princess of Lou Kingdom, so he was locked up by the Sikong family head, who plans to force them to get married."

It's just a rumor, I don't know if it's true or not.

"It's possible that it really is."

"What? Is Young Master Si really that tasteless? He's taken a fancy to a country girl? Is he blind? He rejects so many socialites and chooses a country girl instead. He's insane."

"I think it's impossible. Young Master Si isn't such a short-sighted person. How could he possibly disobey the head of the Sikong family for the sake of a village girl?"

"Impossible, impossible."

“My family is related to the Sikong family. I’ve heard about it, and it’s true.”

It is said that Young Master Si has taken a liking to a village girl for more than half a year.

He kept getting close to that village girl and wouldn't listen to advice. Now, considering that Young Master Si hasn't shown up yet, I think it's probably true.

"Oh my god? No way! Why would Young Master Si be so foolish?"

"What's so great about a village girl?"

"Exactly, could it be that she's just too good in bed?"

"Pah, don't talk nonsense!"

"Maybe it's out of curiosity. After all, we've seen so many beautiful women like us, we'd like to see some ordinary village girls too. What do you think?"

"That's definitely the case. He's just curious and wants to try something new. Once he's had his fill, he'll get bored."

"......."

The socialites and noble ladies all tried to find reasons to support Sikong Xingchen.

That's so they won't look like they have bad eyesight.

Because if Sikong Xingchen likes a village girl, wouldn't that indirectly prove that they have bad taste?

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Liuli, who had just come downstairs, became so angry that her face contorted with rage.

Her son is indeed still locked up.

Because he actually wanted to go find that village girl, which infuriated her.

What's so great about a village girl? Why is she worth him being so hung up on?

"Oh, isn't this Sister Liuli? You look much more haggard after a month apart! What's wrong? Have you been lacking a man's attention?"

The woman speaking was none other than Sikong Xinghai's biological mother, Dongfang Mei.

Her son died, and at the hands of Sikong Xingchen, leaving her with a deep resentment towards Sikong Xingchen and his family.

However, because the old man kept a close eye on her, she never found an opportunity to cause trouble for Shangguan Liuli.

Today, with the princess here, I can finally vent my anger.

"Heh! He's just an old man. Keep him if you like!" Shangguan Liuli and Sikong Qingtian's marriage was a political arrangement, and they had no feelings for each other.

Shangguan Liuli didn't really care which woman the other man was with.

What she cared about was taking the position of the Sikong family head's mother and becoming the most powerful woman in the Sikong family's backyard.

At that time, all those people, whether they're from the East or the West, will have to kneel before her like dogs.

"An old man? Looks like you've got your eye on some young heartthrob. Tsk tsk tsk, I never would have guessed. A dignified woman like you, you actually have such thoughts."

I'll talk to Qingtian about it later and cheer him up too.

Dongfang Mei did this on purpose, wanting to see how Shangguan Liuli would react.

Shangguan Liuli was naturally angry, but she didn't want the other party to be smug, so she could only suppress her anger.

"Get out of the way after you've said that. Even a dog wouldn't block the way. Are you even less than a dog?"

Shangguan Liuli always had this fierce look when facing Dongfang Mei.

The fact that Dongfang Mei was able to maintain her position in Sikong Qingtian's backyard and even raise her son shows that her methods were extraordinary.

As soon as Shangguan Liuli said this, the other party immediately noticed that Sikong Qingtian had finally arrived. She immediately turned around, grabbed the other party's arm, and said coquettishly, "Qingtian, look, Sister Liuli actually called me a dog."

"If I'm a dog, then what are you? Is she indirectly insulting you?"
