Reborn to Be A Noble Wife

Chapter 57: How Many People Were Involved?

After Ji Youran finished her words, she looked at Qu Moying beamingly, expecting an enthusiastic response.

It should be a great honor for Qu Moying to be related to the Crown Prince’s wife. If Qu Moying were a smart girl, she would agree immediately. After all, it was a win-win situation for both of them.

Ji Youran also heard that Qu Moying’s engagement with Young Master Yongning was broken off. Becoming Princess Ji’s cousin would benefit Qu Moying a lot when she had no one to rely on.

However, the blind girl fell into silence for a long time, long enough to make Ji Youran’s smile freeze on her face.

“It’s my pleasure, Your Royal Highness!” Qu Moying finally uttered some words. She lowered her head, her voice was slow and calm, even with a trace of indifference. She would never allow such a malicious woman to be around her in this life.

Well, no one could immediately get along with a stranger who claimed to be her cousin. Moreover, Qu Moying was known for being solitary and introverted.

Ji Youran pressed her lips into a straight line, feeling displeased. She shouldn’t expect this girl who grew up in a village to know about proper manners. She didn’t really care about her, but people close to Ji Hanyue were all dead except for her. Otherwise, she would never make friends with a low-life girl she looked down on to prove her good relationship with Ji Hanyue.

“Cousin, are you here to visit the Dabei Temple too? How many people came with you?” Ji Youran ignored her indifference and kept her friendly smile, looking graceful.

“I came with my sisters and grandmother,” Qu Moying said in a flat tone. She had already hidden all her emotions and turned back to her usual self.

“I will stay in the temple for a period as well. You can come to hang out with me when you are available. I still have something else to do, and I’ll leave first.” Ji Youran casually pointed at one random place and left with her group.

She didn’t really mean to get acquainted with a blind girl since all she needed was to make a show in public.

When Ji Hanyue’s death was announced in the future, she could use Qu Moying to show the touching family love between her and Ji Hanyue as cousins. By then, no one would relate her to the Crown Princess’s death.

Subconsciously, she touched her cheek. Near her ear was a scar made by Ji Hanyue, hidden under her long, thick hair. On the day Ji Hanyue died, Ji Hanyue held her and jumped into the water, and Ji Youran’s face hit a rail while falling. It hadn’t recovered yet, and the Imperial Doctor said the scar might stay on her face permanently. Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but gnash her teeth. That woman just couldn’t give her any peace even after her death! The reason why she was here was Ji Hanyue as well – the Crown Prince asked Ji Rouran to pray for Ji Hanyue in the Dabei Temple so that she could rest in peace.

Pray? She’d love to see Ji Hanyue go to hell after death!

Watching Ji Youran leaving, Qu Moying’s eyes only showed coldness. It was lucky for her that Ji Youran showed up herself since she was planning to approach her anyway.

Butterfly patterns were Ji Hanyue’s favorite, and now ironically, it became Ji Youran’s favorite…

Now that Ji Youran left, the street was crowded again. Qu Moying wearing the veil drew the interest of some punks. They walked over and said frivolously,

“Look, this chick is waiting for someone. I wonder who that is!”

“She’d rather hide in the gap than leave when that noble lady came. She must be waiting for her secret lover! But this man is quite rude to let the chick wait for so long.”
