The originally noisily hall momentarily quieten down and everyone's eyes fell onto the purple figure behind Luo Xue Yan.

The young female's cloak was already removed, and she was wearing a purple silk flower patterned dress with complicated windings, bringing out her slim figure. She slightly lifted her chin and her eyes were looking forward, as if all the noble Furens present were not worthy to be in her eyes. Her complexion was so fair that it looked somewhat translucent but made her eyes and brows look delicate and pretty. However that pair of bright eyes was the most attractive part. Her eyes were round and clear as if they were as pure as a newly born animal but were so calm like they had seen a decade of moons. This kind of transformation and tenderness intertwined, was making her a contradictory beauty.

She followed Luo Xue Yan's steps and walked to the middle of the hall. Unlike Luo Xue Yan's clean and neat gestures, that young female's hands were folded in front of her but they were not stiff looking, as if that action was done thousands of times and was fully ingrained into her. Her long dress followed her steps as it lightly fluttered, as if blooming flower petals and those flowers were not showing off even though it was full of bloom, just like her entire person. Her actions were extremely natural and every step that she took was extremely pleasing, and at the same time had a touch of majesty on them. The women present were all from noble families and naturally had experienced the harsh training of a Momo on etiquettes. They had felt that they can already do it very well, but were astonished when they saw this young female. This was because if it was them, they would not be able to walk that prettily.

Sometimes form could be imitated but the spirit cannot be imitated. There was no waves of expression in that purple clad young female and she had a calm attitude, as if this road was like her own backyard. There was no panic, timidity or impulsiveness. Just plainly walking made one feel that she was looking over all living beings in the world.

It was as if she was the owner of this palace.

Those women could not help but be shocked at such a flash of that idea because this young female was not other but that idiotic Shen Lisa!

Previously at the academy examinations, Shen Lisa's transformation was for all to see but since then, Shen Lisa and Shen Qing both became sick and stayed in the residence that they even did not go to Guang Wen Tang anymore. Even though she had defeated Cai Lin in the academy examinations, that only showed her aggressiveness and boldness. Etiquette and spirit could not be learnt overnight. Shen Lisa had suffered from so many years of foolishness during the yearly returning banquet and it was not an easy thing to turn things around. Who knew that with one look today, one felt that Shen Lisa was a totally different person than before. Not only there was not even a single mistake in her gestures, everyone present had a faint feeling that Shen Lisa was incomparable to all the officials' daughters in this hall!

Shen Lisa followed behind Luo Xue Yan and faced everyone's eyes but no one saw the corner of her lips stiffen.

It had been more than a decade. She had finally returned here again. In her previous life, it was struggling and fighting in close quarters in this prison where one's fate had to be fought for. She wanted to see if in this lifetime, could this place still trap her!

Every single brick and tile in this place were deeply engraved in her heart that even if she were to close her eyes, she would still know her way. All those tedious Palace ceremonies were done day after day that they were almost engraved to her bones. In this hall when she closed her eyes, she could almost see Wan Yun asking her to eat snacks and Fu Ming shaking his head as he memorises the country's policies. Love and hate were both heavy, bitter and sweetness were mixed. To once again enter here, she had mixed feelings. Her heart was burning up but it was from the flames of revenge!
