Chapter 2028: Miserable Fiancée vs. Prestigious Young Lady (Part 63)

Gu Shengyin naturally also noticed this issue.

It should be said that when she decided to come here, she anticipated such a situation might occur.

Chang Jiujiu was already good-looking, and with time, Gu Shengyin had been soaking flower tea with Spiritual Spring Water every day and bathing in it.

After a few months, although her features were still the same, her whole demeanor had inexplicably become several degrees more refined than before.

Not to mention, her entire skin now appeared so fair and delicate as if it could glow.

Sometimes, even Gu Shengyin herself, when she looked in the mirror, couldn’t help but be momentarily entranced by the beauty inside.

Everyone looking at this Prospective Princess Consort of Prince Ping thought that with each smile and frown, every move she made was the epitome of elegance and charm, such poise was completely unlike someone from a small family in a remote place, but rather someone practiced in countless rigorous training sessions.

Everyone was even more convinced that the true identity of this County Princess Si Fang must be extraordinary.

Plus, with such a face that could be termed as calamity-inducing...

Many thought that the one who truly got the advantage here was Prince Ping.

Such a vibrant beauty, pitiful and endearing...

"The Marquis Mingyi’s Mansion has arrived!" someone outside suddenly announced loudly.

This announcement seemed to awaken the temporary silence in the flower hall, which immediately returned to its previous liveliness.

Only this time, the gazes surrounding Gu Shengyin were more numerous and even more enthusiastic.

Gu Shengyin navigated skillfully among the crowd, maintaining an attitude neither cold nor overly warm, her poised demeanor further showcasing her excellent upbringing.

As Chen Mingzhu followed her mother inside, she immediately noticed Gu Shengyin being surrounded like the moon among stars.

She didn’t want to, but who could blame Gu Shengyin for being so eye-catching?

Noticing her daughter’s momentary stiffness, Lady of the Marquis Mingyi turned her head, giving her daughter a warning look without leaving any trace.

"Behave yourself today." This was the meaning conveyed in her eyes.

Chen Mingzhu paused, displaying a gentle smile on her face.

Only then did Lady of the Marquis Mingyi feel satisfied as she slowly walked into the flower hall.

From afar, Gu Shengyin watched, observing Chen Mingzhu walking meekly beside Lady of the Marquis Mingyi, she probably understood where the confidence of the Marquis’s Mansion came from.

Solely in terms of appearance, Chen Mingzhu indeed stood out among the noble ladies present.

If Gu Shengyin hadn’t shown up today, Chen Mingzhu might very well have dazzled the entire gathering.

But with Gu Shengyin as the pearl ahead, when people looked at this charming eldest lady of the Marquis Mingyi’s Mansion, they found beauty, but just that.

Chen Mingzhu naturally also sensed the thoughts of the crowd.

She had intricately prepared herself today, hoping to amaze everyone, ideally even impress her target for the day, the Crown Prince of Prince An.

But now...

Seeing Gu Shengyin standing there, seemingly radiant, Chen Mingzhu bit her lip with some embarrassment.

With County Princess Si Fang present, who would still notice her?

Just the daughter of a merchant, why does she deserve such a spotlight?

Looking at Gu Shengyin smiling so calmly, Chen Mingzhu ignored her mother’s gaze and blurted out, "County Princess Si Fang, with all your endless glory, have you considered your brother still struggling for basic livelihood?"

The entire flower hall fell silent because of this statement.
