"My God! She’s so beautiful!"
Ni Cuihua and Ni Chengui turned their heads simultaneously, only to see Zheng Xianjing, clad in a pale blue luxurious gown, gracefully descending the staircase. The long trail of her gown dragged across the floor, diamonds on it glistening under the crystal lights, refracting dazzling light like the rippling surface of water.
She really looks stunning!
In awe, Ni Chengui exclaimed, "I never thought your niece could look this beautiful! This gown must have been very expensive, right?"
Ni Cuihua nodded, "Yes, I heard it cost over twenty thousand yuan."
Ni Chengui was dumbfounded.
Twenty thousand yuan just for a gown, the life of the wealthy is truly unimaginable.
Watching everyone’s envious gazes, Zheng Xianjing proudly held her gown, stepping down the stairs elegantly.
She loved this feeling of superiority, basking in everyone’s attention.
"Xianjing, you look really pretty tonight!" Liu Kexin immediately greeted her.
Zheng Xianjing pulled a slight smile, "Just mediocre."
Another wealthy girl approached, "What do you mean, mediocre? You look like a fairy descended from heaven!"
"I think, even fairies aren’t as pretty as Xianjing."
Listening to everyone’s flattery, a proud smile enveloped Zheng Xianjing’s face, impossible to hide.
Just then, Liu Kexin suddenly froze, staring at the staircase.
Then another wealthy girl also froze.
A collective gasp echoed through the air.
Zheng Xianjing frowned slightly, wondering what they were looking at. She turned around to follow everyone’s gaze.
Upon turning,
Zheng Xianjing also froze.
There, coming down the stairs, was a woman in red.
Red, a color so vividly intense, yet on her, it seemed as though it was made just for her. The brilliant red set off her skin so fair and lips so fiery. The gown, cinching at the waist, accentuated her delicate figure, making it slender enough to encircle with an arm.
Her gown’s diamonds made her seem perched upon the clouds, unattainably high.
She outshone everyone!
Against this striking presence, the previously pure and elegant Zheng Xianjing seemed so colorless she virtually vanished, especially since they wore the same style of gown.
Zheng Xianjing clenched her fists tightly, shaking in fury.
Originally, picking red for Ni Yang was supposed to make her look ridiculous!
Unexpectedly!
It turned out to highlight her spectacularly!
Zheng Lingling also couldn’t believe she had slipped up!
She regretted it!
She shouldn’t have chosen such a splendid evening gown for Ni Yang...
Ni Chengui nearly yelled out, pulling on Ni Cuihua’s sleeve, "Yangyang’s mom, that’s Yangyang, right? My God! She looks so beautiful!"
Ni Cuihua remarked, "Our Yangyang has always been this beautiful."
Ni Chengui teased with a laugh, "Look how proud you are."
Shangguan Xi excitedly tugged on Shangguan Xu, "Brother, look at Yangyang!"
Shangguan Xu calmly responded, "I see her."
Enviously, Shangguan Xi said, "I wish I could look as beautiful as Yangyang."
Shangguan Xu glanced at her, "Maybe in your next life."
Shangguan Xi, frustrated, hit Shangguan Xu.
Old Master Zheng, originally chatting with a few old friends, proudly announced after seeing Ni Yang descend, "See? That most beautiful girl is my granddaughter!"
