"Your clothes..." Jin Suting made an indescribable expression.
Tang Ruozhi immediately lowered her head to check if there was anything wrong with her body, whether her clothes were wrinkled, and whether her chest was low enough. She also asked the people around her if her hair was messy. After receiving the affirmative answer of "It's not messy, you are really beautiful", she looked up and glared at Jin Suting.
"Are you blind?" he said rudely. "There's nothing wrong with the clothes!"
Jin Suting laughed even louder. She lowered her head to look at Tang Ruozhi, who was several steps away from her. "Are you naive or just playing dumb? You're dressed like a rooster courting a mate today, or maybe a nightclub girl would be a better description. What's the point of dressing like this for someone else's birthday party?"
Of course it was to attract Helan Ruizhe's attention!
Tang Ruozhi naturally couldn't say this out loud, but his inner thoughts were exposed, and he cursed in anger: "You're talking nonsense! What I wear is none of your business!"
Wow, she was swearing in front of the palace. Jin Suting admired her courage. This child might have been brought up too strictly, so after finally getting out of the house, she couldn't restrain herself and let out all the dirty talk. But of course, this was just Jin Suting's guess.
But this is not much different from the reality. After all, Tang Ruozhi's family education is strict to the point of being abnormal.
"Okay, as long as you're happy." Jin Suting shut up. Don't blame her for not reminding him if he gets taught a lesson later.
Jin Suting walked up the last few steps with her hands behind her back, maturely.
Just then, she met Helan Ruizhe coming out of the side hall. She walked over to greet him, or rather, bowed. "Greetings, His Royal Highness."
"No need to be so polite." Helan Ruizhe held her arm and winked at her.
This small action was seen by everyone at the bottom of the stairs, who stamped their feet in anger.
She didn't dare go up, and could only watch the two of them walk into the hall in sweet happiness. The person next to her was someone Madam Tang had reassigned to her side. She wasn't familiar with her, but she was worried about her and didn't dare complain to her. She had no place to vent her anger, and she was about to suffocate.
"Is it not a good idea for us to go in together like this?" Jin Suting whispered to Helan Ruizhe.
There was still a short distance from here to the main hall, so Helan Ruizhe jokingly said, "How about we go in separately from here?"
"No." Jin Suting looked at the palace maids and eunuchs around her, feeling embarrassed by being stared at. She whispered, "This is too contrived and too weird."
Although the eunuchs and palace maids all lowered their heads obediently, she still felt that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them. After all, the eyes of the palace maids and eunuchs were everywhere, so she had to be on guard.
"Okay then." Helan Ruizhe suddenly approached her, interlocked his fingers with hers, and deliberately smiled without looking at her. "This way it won't be pretentious, and it won't be weird."
Jin Suting stared at him with wide eyes, then looked around. After finding that the palace maids and eunuchs didn't have any strange reactions, she felt relieved. She struggled with Helan Ruizhe's palm with her fingers, but when she failed, she whispered, "Next time you hold hands, tell me in advance. You scared me to death just now!"
"Yes, sir!" Helan Ruizhe smiled mischievously.
After they entered the hall, the maid A who was guarding the pillar and closest to Helan Ruizhe went crazy. She said to the maid B beside her: "His Royal Highness was so gentle just now!"
Maid A: "So handsome! I want to marry him!"
Maid B felt Maid A's forehead and said, "Well, I don't have a fever. Then why do I have such an unrealistic dream?"
Palace Maid A: “…Hehe.” The friendship is over.
The hall was more or less full, after all, all the noble ladies in the city were invited, so it was quite lively.
So when Helan Ruizhe held Jin Suting's hand and walked into the hall with their fingers interlocked, it caused quite a commotion.
The ladies' expressions were a mixture of surprise and joy, so colorful.
What’s surprising is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so handsome in person!
What was surprising was why Jin Suting was next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and was holding hands with him!!!
Most people here have never seen Helan Ruizhe's true face (referring to his face), but it's just because he was wearing a yellow robe embroidered with a Qilin today. Who else in the entire Fuding Kingdom would dare to wear such a robe except the prince?
Jin Suting was, of course, a household name. Her reputation was so bad that no noblewoman wanted to be her sister.
But this was not what surprised them the most. What broke the hearts of hundreds of noble ladies was that Helan Ruizhe personally sent Jin Suting to her seat, gave her a few gentle instructions, and then sat back on the left side of the hall.
The point is, why is he so gentle!!! And so handsome woooooooooo… (these pig tears are theirs)
Because of the double blow of a certain prince's speechless acting and deliberate spread of false information, in the eyes of all the noble ladies, Helan Ruizhe is almost an image that cannot be more negative, as he is cynical, ugly, philandering and vulgar.
They came to the banquet today, and what they were most looking forward to was meeting Helan Yinsheng, the heart-throb of girls! But they didn't expect such a handsome guy to show up before the heart-throb! It was so unexpected!
Jin Suting was very frightened.
After Helan Ruizhe sent her to her seat, the noble ladies on her left and right and in front and behind her all secretly asked her how she could have such a good relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Could it be that Jin Suting is the designated Crown Princess? But isn't it rumored to be Yu Qinglan?
The girls were eager to know the answer, and soon regarded Jin Suting, the "witch" who was rumored to be disgusting, as a close sister.
Although they and she did not know each other and had never met before - today was the first time they met.
