I'm furious!
Lin Jiaoyun was absolutely furious!
Her eyes were red as she stared intently at the engagement jade pendant in Cheng Xianyi's hand. Her gaze then moved upwards, landing on the gold brocade that cost hundreds of taels of silver per inch, and then on the magnificent jewelry.
These, all of these should have been hers!
They should all belong to her!
Why should I?!
Why is it that just because she was more careful about relationships and more self-respecting and pure, Zhou Cheng was seduced by that bitch Cheng Xianyi!
Tears welled up in Lin Jiaoyun's eyes. She clenched her fists tightly, her chest heaving with anger.
At this moment, she was so unwilling to believe the reality before her eyes, and so eager to tear Cheng Xianyi's stunning face apart.
"What's there to be proud of? What I hate most is a vain woman."
Lin Jiaoyun gave a resentful sneer and said, "I'm not like some people who are easily moved by a few taels of silver and can go out with any man to hold hands and stroll through the red-light district. They have no self-respect at all!"
Cheng Xianyi narrowed her dark eyes slightly and glanced at the pink-clad maid.
The maid in pink immediately stepped forward and retorted sarcastically, "Yes, yes, my young lady doesn't respect herself, but some people respect themselves the most."
"When she collapsed at Yanchun Tower, she cried and asked Young Master Zhou why he was ignoring her. At the same time, she kissed Young Master Qin in front of him, while saying that she was aloof and asking Young Master Zhou for a lingzhi mushroom worth thousands of taels of silver."
"Who can be as self-respecting as someone else!"
"You..." Lin Jiaoyun was so angry that her face turned pale and then red, and her lips trembled as she listened to these sarcastic words.
She wanted to argue, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't find a reason to refute them.
The eldest princess, who had been watching from the sidelines, stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, I invited you all here today for a chat and a gathering. It just so happens that I have some private thoughts I'd like to discuss with Miss Cheng in private. I wonder if it would be convenient?"
After receiving Cheng Xianyi's tacit nod of approval.
The eldest princess then ordered the young ladies to go and enjoy the garden first, while she led Cheng Xianyi toward the study.
Watching the two figures walk away side by side, and feeling the mocking and disdainful looks from the other young ladies, Lin Jiaoyun felt countless grievances and pain in her heart. She wished she could find a hole to hide in.
That's the look in my eyes!
They looked down on her family background, despised her talent and beauty, and ridiculed her behavior!
How did she handle this situation in the past?
She dared not offend these noble ladies from better families than her, so she went to Zhou Cheng to complain. When Zhou Cheng heard this, he would fly into a rage and then go directly to these ladies' homes to avenge her!
But now... Zhou Cheng is gone.
He... he won't stand up for her anymore.
"Zhou Cheng, I hate you, I hate you so much, why won't you come and make up with me, sob sob..." Lin Jiaoyun pretended to hold back her tears, but inside she was so sad that she wanted to cry her heart out.
She maintained what little dignity she had left, then abruptly turned and left.
These people are all young ladies from first- or second-rank noble families. They look down on her from the bottom of their hearts. Since that's the case, why should she have to humble herself and try to fit in?
She refused! She wanted Zhou Cheng to help her get revenge!
right!
She was going to find Cheng Xianyi and ask her to take back the methods she used to bewitch Zhou Cheng and return him to her!
right!
Go find Cheng Xianyi!
Can;
Just as Lin Jiaoyun stormed to the vicinity of the study, ready to storm into the front door and shout for Cheng Xianyi to get out of Zhou Cheng's world.
Her hurried steps suddenly stopped.
As if she had heard some shocking secret, Lin Jiaoyun first opened her mouth wide in disbelief, and then stood there stunned in place...
