Jun Hua is still standing in front of her classroom when she hears a voice calls for her. She turned her head and meets with the eyes of an older girl she has once meet, Lin Yuan.

"Jun Hua, you have finally come."

Lin Yuan smiled widely, showing her white teeth. She has not heard anything from Jun Hua for almost 2 months so naturally she's happy to see the girl once more. Without they meet at all, she won't have any change to get close with that person.

Jun Hua naturally notices her real intention long ago, but she allowed Lin Yuan to get close with her. Lin Yuan didn't actually do any damage to her and only try to gain favor. Beside, Jun Hua knows that this girl wish could never come true so there is no harm in befriending her.

Lin Yuan stared at the classroom, her brows creased. "Right, have you met with Lin San? She must have made some trouble to you. Don't really mind it. She doesn't have any evil intention."

No evil intention? Jun Hua is pretty sure that all Lin San hoped is for her to die along with her family. Beside, that pair of arrogant eyes has never even once looked properly to her.

The next second, Jun Hua stared at Lin Yuan. There's something strange, why is Lin Yuan protecting Lin San so much? Given how highly jealous Chun Maora is, there's no way she would have left Lin Yuan stay out of trouble. Does Lin Yuan doesn't have any hatred towards them?

"Why are you protecting her so much?"

Lin Yuan didn't expect Jun Hua to point it out so frankly. In truth, she too doesn't want to do this, but she doesn't have any choice.

"My marriage is set to be after my lesson over. It's only 4 months away," Lin Yuan answered reluctantly.

Jun Hua understands. In this kind of age where woman is set to live only for the sake of their man, their marriage is something that will change their entire course of live. Whether she could live well or not depend on their husband. Given that Lin Yuan is only a concubine born, her marriage will be set by Chun Maora since she's the main wife. If Lin Yuan wanted to have a good groom, she could only latch onto her good side.

Jun Hua stared at the girl in front of her. It is no wonder she wants to get into the good side of Lin San. Lin Yuan certainly cannot get a man of high status, but she still could get some good low-rank official as husband. Of course, that is if Chun Maora and Lin Tang both agreed. If not, probably she would only become someone concubine.

"Have they chosen your partner?"

Lin Yuan shakes her head. "To establish a marriage, you need consent from both parties. Until now, there still hasn't anyone who's suitable enough."

Somehow Jun Hua has the feeling that they would choose someone who will make Lin Yuan life miserable. No matter how generous Chun Maora appeared, she has once tasted just how low that woman would go in order to gain the power inside Lin family and the cruel method she chooses to eliminate her opponent.

"Be patient, I'm sure your mother won't let them choose someone bad for you."

Lin Yuan passes a wry smile. She knows that her mother will chooses someone good, but how about Chun Maora?

Jun Hua stared at the girl as she thinks about a few things. There are many things that could affect a woman marriage, but all of it is still the decision of their parents. Since they're not really that close, Jun Hua doesn't feel any obligation to help her. In the end, Jun Hua only console Lin Yuan a bit before the two of them parted.

Jun Hua walks inside the classroom and pick one of the empty seat. Soon the teacher comes and the girls all stand up to greet him.

Jun Hua looks towards the teacher with interest. Their teacher is quite young, only in his late 20-s with neat appearance. His face is okay, but his polite and neat demeanor makes some of the girls in the class falls for him. Although they are nobles, they still love to see handsome and refined man.

"Teacher Pei, who's the new students you say?" one of the girls asked. They had heard that today there's a new student coming so they're highly curious.

Teacher Pei smiled. "She's here, her name is Jun Hua. Please stand up Lady Hua so we could recognize you."

Jun Hua stands up calmly. Her face still wears the veil, but it doesn't reduce her charm in the slightest. Her clear eyes sweep across the girls in the classroom.

The girl's eyes are staring at her with curiosity, they wonder just how this famous girls looks like since there are a lot of rumors about her. In addition, her story has long since spread among the nobles since she makes such a big incident when she comes to the Jun family. They say that she's a timid girl, a waste that shouldn't appear in front of public. But seeing that clear and beautiful eyes, they all stunned silly.

White skin like snow. Petite and elegant body. Clear eyes like water. How many women in the capital could contend with her? They all feel that the heavens are unfair. Why does a useless girl have such a beautiful body?
