Chapter 1736: Chapter 781: Good Sisters

Several servants kept their heads down, silent, only accelerating for fear that the frustration of the mistress would be vented upon them.

And on their carriage, there was the family flag. Seeing it, others had to yield a bit, adding quite some speed to their progress.

Not long after, their carriage stopped at the front gates of the Qian Residence.

"Miss Jin."

"Miss Jin!"

Obviously, the servants were not seeing the Ji Family’s carriage for the first time.

Seeing the people inside come out, they promptly greeted them respectfully.

As good friends, the Bidding Girl had quite some privileges at the Qian Residence.

For example, now, without any questioning or obstruction, she could stride directly into the Qian Residence, while the maids who saw her quickly ran ahead to inform their mistress, lest she be unprepared to meet the Bidding Girl.

"Jin’er!"

The Bidding Girl, striding forward, suddenly hears an excited shout, and stops, frowns, and looks over.

A youth in a bustling attire was excitedly smiling, walking towards her with large strides, followed by a team of fully armed servants.

The bright and cheerful smile, in her eyes, was like a stinky, desire-filled greedy smile, a deceitful large hand shaking vigorously, probably with a mind full of intent to touch any part of her body the next second.

Disgusting!

The Bidding Girl didn’t need to say much; the well-acquainted youth already knew to stop at a rather appropriate distance away.

"Jin’er, why have you come suddenly? Did you know I’m dueling that kid Bo Fu today and came specially to cheer for me?"

The youth was full of expectation, but alas...

"Smelly man, all stinky! Whatever you’re doing, I’m not interested at all! Don’t be an eyesore here, looking at you is annoying!"

The deep disgust was entirely genuine, stemming from the heart’s feeling that men were revolting.

Upon hearing this, the youth was not repulsed. Instead, his smile widened, his enthusiasm more exuberant.

"Jin’er is still so fond of joking. I know, when my duel begins at Chunhong House tonight, you’ll definitely be there cheering for me!"

He was so confident, as if convinced that Ji Jin would absolutely not miss his splendid duel.

If this confident appearance fell into the eyes of other suitors, it might seem dashing and glamorous, full of charm.

However, to the Bidding Girl, she only felt nausea and revulsion.

"Indeed, all men are the same! Disgusting!"

As if seeing nothing makes her less bothered, the Bidding Girl strides past the youth, speaking coldly.

"Get out of the way! Good dogs don’t block the road!"

The youth naturally and generously stepped aside and instructed his subordinates to do the same.

As the Bidding Girl strode away, only her shadow was visible from afar. The youth continued like a lovesick man, standing there, gazing longingly after her, not retracting his sight until...

"Young Master Wu, Miss Jin has gone far away."

"I know."

Qian Wu smiled and withdrew his gaze, glancing at the talkative servant, scaring him pale, causing him to lower his head, not daring to speak further.

But Qian Wu also said little, instead turning around, striding onward.

What the servants behind him did not notice was that at the moment Qian Wu turned, the smile and enthusiasm on his face vanished entirely, his whole expression turning indifferent and cold, as if the previous enthusiasm was nothing more than a façade, merely a guise of false affection.

Interactions among the nobility were mostly for benefit, genuine investments of emotion were scarce.

His love, his enthusiasm, his friendliness were all a disguise, a mask, simply to climb aboard the Ji Family’s large ship.

Qian Wu didn’t feel he was wrong. Everyone around him did the same, akin to big fish eating small fish, small fish eating shrimp, and no more.

Even like the Ji Family, facing higher families and nobility, they had to abase themselves, showing no difference, only that when the Ji Family bowed and wagged, the small Qian Family didn’t even have the qualification to glance at the scene.

Adjusting his state of mind, Qian Wu quickened his pace. Tonight’s duel with Bo Fu at Chunhong House must be won, and won splendidly. It concerns the elevation of his reputation, the elevation of his family’s status.

The family’s only sister, having Ji Jin as a sister, was heavily favored at home, whereas all the brothers like him had to strive for their future, fighting for status and privileges in the family.

"Must... win!"

While Qian Wu was leaving the Qian Residence, the Bidding Girl had already arrived at Qian Qian’s boudoir.

Qian Qian, also known as Qin Er, was curiously sizing up this ’good sister.’

She found the most crucial reason for maintaining such a stable sisterly relationship was... she was mute.

That’s right, the body Qin Er was reincarnated into was born mute, making her the best sounding board, the best confidante.

The Bidding Girl chattered away, recounting everything she encountered at Hundred Mischief Lane to Qin Er.

Qin Er, for the sake of this body living longer, worked hard to perform the role of this mute woman.

Perhaps due to being mute, this body was easier to disguise than the identities encountered before, at least for now, no one noticed any flaws.

Even so-called good sister Ji Jin hadn’t discovered any signs.

Or perhaps, the so-called good sisters were just surface-level; she merely needed a confidante, not caring if the person inside had changed.
