Chapter 383: 388: More Beautiful Than Them Meanwhile.
Huangfu Ye slapped his chest hard, “What the hell is the old man doing! He scared me to death!”
Ever since the big brother found out that Qingxin was kidnapped, he hadn’t said a word. However, his aura was extremely intimidating.
Upon receiving the news, Beiming Han immediately stood up and quickly left his office.
Huangfu Ye quickly followed.
Jade Garden is located at the foot of the western hill of Ming City. It is the best feng shui spot in Ming City, covering a very wide area.
Today is Beiming Lingyun’s 8oth birthday, and many noble families and dignitaries will come to celebrate.
Beiming Lingyun had a conversation with Gu Qingxin, then had Lieyan take her to change her clothes. After all, there were many guests today, and she couldn’t dress too casually.
Gu Qingxin originally wanted to leave, but Beiming Lingyun wouldn’t allow it.
There was no room for negotiation. Gu Qingxin could only follow Lieyan upstairs to change her clothes.
Lieyan took her to the second floor, saying, “Miss Gu, today is the old man’s birthday. It’s rare for him to be this happy. Just stay in peace.”
She couldn’t leave even if she wanted to.
Halfway there, Gu Qingxin looked up to see Beiming Shasha, with two young ladies beside her. They were all dressed in their finest, adorned with gems and jewelry.
” What are you doing here?” Upon seeing Gu Qingxin, Beiming Shasha was startled and cried out.
“Miss Nine, Miss Gu is a guest invited by the old grandfather!” Lieyan opened his mouth seriously.
“My grandpa… invited her?” Beiming Shasha disdainfully twisted her mouth, looking upset. She looked at Gu Qingxin as if she was looking at the lowest and most humble creature, unworthy of appearing in Jade Garden.
“Yes!”
“Miss Gu, this way, please.” Lieyan was very respectful to Gu Qingxin.
Gu Qingxin utterly ignored Beiming Shasha, not even sparing her a glance, and left with Lieyan.
“What a bitch, acting so arrogant! What’s the big deal about my grandpa inviting her! She’s still an uncouth, crude girl!” Beiming Shasha was significantly angered.
“Exactly, she’s so rustic, and ugly on top of that. She doesn’t deserve to be in this blessed place like Jade Garden.”
“And her figure is awful as well, no breasts, no butt. She’s as withered as a mummy.”
The young ladies beside Beiming Shasha chipped in.
Lieyan, “…”
He really didn’t understand what these women were thinking, but it’s not his place to intervene in women’s affairs. He led Gu Qingxin into a room.
Feeling that Gu Qingxin might be upset, he said, “I think you are much prettier than them.”
Gu Qingxin looked at Lieyan’s serious look, knowing that he was trying to cheer her up. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t worry, I won’t care about what irrelevant people say.”
Lieyan immediately nodded, “You’re thinking right.”
“Please get changed, Miss Gu. This is what grandfather had prepared for you.” After saying this, Lieyan left the room and stood guard at the door.
Gu Qingxin opened the box to find a classical cheongsam inside. It’s a light pinkish-white, adorned with intricate underlying patterns. It was dignified yet cute, perfectly suitable for her age.
Gu Qingxin had never worn a cheongsam before. Like all young girls, she also enjoyed looking beautiful.
