Chapter 1368: Losing Face
However, wasn’t the legitimate eldest Miss of the General’s Mansion rumored to be a country girl? How does this woman have such a refined demeanor?
"Elder sister, why are you just arriving? Your younger sister has been waiting for you for a long time."
Before Xuexue could steady her footing, a clear voice sounded beside her. She turned her head to look, and it was Situtu Qinger, filling her heart with confusion. How had she come here?
Situtu Qinger was dressed very prettily, in a light yellow pleated skirt that was tight at the top and loose at the bottom, looking very graceful. This style of dress should be a newly launched design.
On her oval-shaped face, there were big, blinking eyes, a slightly upturned nose, and a small cherry-like mouth. Her hair was styled in a fashionable young girl’s hairbun, looking altogether very harmonious.
Situtu Qinger had been schooled by Auntie Tang for over a decade and was clever, knowing how to dress in order to stand out among the many young ladies of noble families.
Unlike other noble ladies who filled their hair with jewelry to display their prominent family status, she only wore a hairpin adorned with beads and two earrings.
Coupled with her delicate features and outstanding appearance, she appeared quite remarkable and out of the ordinary. Compared to other noble ladies, she seemed like a crane standing among chickens.
"Second sister? How did you come here?"
Situtu Qinger sauntered over, looking extremely proud. She approached Situtu Xuexue with a gentle expression, leaned forward, and whispered in her ear, "Elder sister, it was the Fourth Prince who invited me over."
"The Fourth Prince?"
"Yes!"
The fact that these two were involved did not surprise Situtu Xuexue at all. In her previous life, after she married the Fourth Prince, Situtu Qinger used the excuse of visiting her sister to start an affair with him. As the person involved, she was completely in the dark, even busying herself with their matters, only to end up becoming a wedding dress for others. Not only did she lose her life, but she also harmed her young daughter. Her daughter’s screams as she fell into the furnace haunted her every time the night was quiet, filling Situtu Xuexue with an intense hatred, making her want to end the lives of these two despicable people with a single stroke.
