Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife – o

This woman... Could it be she’s mistaken her for someone who climbs the social ladder through relationships?

Speaking of which, Hepburn Jess isn’t too far off, even though this is the World Business Association, the invited guests are allowed to bring a female or male companion. Many people brought their families, lovers, or even children to attend. Moreover, An Yiqing walked in side-by-side with the Old Prince, so it’s not hard for people to misunderstand her relationship with the Bruch Family.

"Miss Jess, what do you think my relationship with the Bruch Family is?" An Yiqing suddenly became curious.

Hepburn Jess was taken aback by An Yiqing’s question, her expression somewhat awkward. She hesitated, seemingly finding it difficult to speak.

Seeing her like this, An Yiqing laughed, "Do you think I am the Old Prince’s lover? Or Bali’s lover?" She suddenly noticed that this woman had emphasized Duke Bali just now, her heart immediately became clear, "So, Miss Jess has feelings for Bali and wants me to stay away from him, right?"

Hepburn Jess, having her thoughts exposed, blushed slightly, along with a hint of anger. An Yiqing addressing Bali by name made her somewhat displeased.

"Miss An, please mind your manners. Duke Bali holds an esteemed position, not someone you can casually address by name."

An Yiqing, at this point, somewhat understood why this woman was appointed as a baroness by the queen. Her identity, demeanor, presence, and poise all befit this status. Though she’s somewhat arrogant, she differs from those canaries. She speaks directly, even if it’s a threat, it’s straightforward and upright, which is much better than those who use underhanded tactics.

However, her personality is acceptable, but her presence outweighs her composure. Questioning without fully understanding her identity seems a bit impatient.

"Miss Jess, I think you haven’t investigated my identity clearly. One cannot judge only by appearances. Liking someone is good, but being unclear-headed seems a bit unworthy of your status." An Yiqing picked up a glass of champagne, gently swirling it, with calm and poise between her brows, "I won’t hold a grudge for this incident, but please verify my identity thoroughly before questioning me. Have a good departure, no need to see you off."

Hepburn Jess was stunned, as she had never been treated this way before. Her first reaction was anger, promptly followed by her good upbringing and rationality to suppress it, she calmed down to observe An Yiqing. The aura of this girl seemed even stronger than hers, could an ordinary person truly possess this? Unconsciously, she began to doubt the women who had just reported to her.

Thinking carefully about what this young girl had said, it seemed she had misunderstood her.

Giving An Yiqing a complex look, Hepburn Jess stood up slowly, "Regarding Miss An’s earlier remarks, I will reserve my judgment. If I misunderstood you, I will personally apologize to Miss An. Of course, if I find out you lied, Miss An should be prepared to face my wrath."

An Yiqing watched Hepburn Jess’s departing figure with a faint smile on her lips. This woman is quite interesting, somewhat resembling Bali’s personality. However, losing sight of reason for love is not something she appreciates.

Hopefully, this woman will remember this lesson and improve a bit in the future.

"Miss, do you need me to keep an eye on things?" Zhang Yufeng asked, considering the significance of this business association, what if that woman plays tricks behind the scenes, wouldn’t Miss be at a disadvantage?

"No need," An Yiqing shook her head, while glancing meaningfully at the crowd, "Hepburn Jess’s character is rather decent, and she’s not one for underhanded tactics. Those are just nobodies, hardly worth mentioning."

She didn’t miss Hepburn Jess having a brief conversation with a few women before coming over, and those women had been watching her all along with eyes that definitely weren’t friendly. Adding to Hepburn Jess’s perplexity just now, An Yiqing easily deduced that she had been manipulated.

She had investigated the guest information for the association, and those women weren’t significant figures, merely gossipers from wealthy noble families.

Hepburn Jess didn’t return, and those women didn’t dare to approach casually. For the moment, An Yiqing found herself with some peace. Just then, as she was busy enjoying the unique fruits of Country Zi, a teasing voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Little girl, wherever you go, you find something to eat? Is Lao San starving you at home?"

An Yiqing didn’t need to turn around to guess who it was. She elegantly rolled her eyes, "I’m a mere layabout who has little exposure, unlike Young Master Bai, with luxurious cars and beauties abundantly around."
