In this life, she wants everyone to see her beauty. God has given her such a face, so she must make good use of it. The road she is taking is a road to heaven.
So when Xu Lingyi appeared at the banquet dressed up, everyone was stunned.
Even Shen Qinghuai and Shen Rou and others.
Xu Lingyi wore a scarlet blouse with a palace neckline and a pattern of colorful butterflies, paired with a skirt of the same color, and covered with a layer of light-colored thin silk brocade with fine patterns.
She wore a crystal necklace around her neck and a gold necklace on her wrists. Snow-white pearls were embroidered on her collar and belt. She had a pair of peach blossom hairpins in her hair. When the breeze blew, she looked like a fairy. She wore a little makeup, but she looked stunningly beautiful.
"Fox Charm."
Shen Rou couldn't help herself at this moment and said something in an extremely small voice.
Shen Qinghuai was taken to his grandparents' house by Shen Rou early in the morning and did not go with Xu Lingyi.
This was also the first time he saw her dressed like this. Unlike her wedding dress, this outfit made Xu Lingyi even more stunning.
"Your stepmother is so beautiful!" Shen Rou stared at Xu Lingyi with her handkerchief, and looked at her again and again.
Shen Rou was angry when she saw her like that.
"I don't think she's that pretty, but don't you think she's seductive? Her waist is so thin, yet she wears her belt so tightly. It's obvious she's trying to seduce me."
Shen Rou had been pretending for nearly ten days, and at this moment, her dissatisfaction and hatred towards Xu Lingyi had reached its peak.
Not only did she take her mother's place, she also wanted to take her father's heart.
The father himself did not realize that his attitude towards Xu Lingyi was slowly changing. If this continued, sooner or later they would be together and Xu Lingyi would give birth to a child for his father.
But she couldn't accept this happening. The Shen family could only belong to them and her siblings.
The man widened his eyes, somewhat unable to believe that it was Shen Rou who said such words.
"But...but everyone is dressed like this. You and I are both wearing it. Isn't that how you dress for parties? She's just naturally beautiful..."
Not only did Shen Rou not get approval, she was also refuted by her own friend.
"Are you also fascinated by her?" Shen Rou's chest heaved with anger, but when she thought about her and her grandmother's plan for today, she suppressed the anger in her heart.

At the banquet, Xu Lingyi was very interested. She wanted to see what tricks Chen Rou and the others had up their sleeves. Would they be the same old-fashioned ones as in their previous life, or would they be innovative?
Until they poured a glass of wine on her skirt again, Xu Lingyi pretended to be surprised but felt disappointed in her heart.
Still the same trick.
"No... I'm sorry." The little maid stuttered, seeming very scared.
Xu Lingyi saw through her, but she spoke gently: "It's nothing, I don't blame you, you were also careless."
You just did it on purpose.
"Ma'am, how about I take you to change into something else? Your clothes will be more noticeable if they're wet."
The maid looked so honest and young, it seemed like this was just an accident.
Xu Lingyi nodded: "Okay."
But the emperor held her skirt tightly and refused to let her go.
He felt there was danger.
"Laifu, what's wrong?" Xu Lingyi picked him up, held him in her arms, and patted his little head lovingly. "I'm going to change my clothes. Do you want to come with me?"
The emperor nodded. He couldn't stop him at this point, so he just followed him and would deal with the situation as he pleased.
