Bei Sangyun and Fei Chuan walked the red carpet, unfazed by the flashes of caras and the commotion among the reporters. They resembled celestial beings, gracing the banquet with their presence, each exuding a unique temperant.
At the entrance, onlookers gawked at them in speechless admiration as the couple proceeded to their designated seats without obstruction. No one dared to block their way, fearing an unfavorable comparison—like dung next to a flower.
When the pair finally distanced themselves from the crowd, soone couldn’t hold back and uttered hoarsely, "T-that’s the tyrant, right? I thought a goddess descended for a mont." The speaker patted his chest to calm his rapidly beating heart. As the tyrant passed by, he held his breath, marveling at her beauty.
"I know, right? I think I just saw the man of my dreams. He’s so handso! How can soone be so beautiful and charismatic? I wonder where the tyrant found him? I want to know his na." His partner held her cheeks, gazing dreamily at Fei Chuan’s back.
The man fell into deep thought. The man was indeed handso and far superior to Jang Shin. But why did he look so familiar?
Suddenly, a couple beside them exclaid in surprise, "Isn’t that Fei Chuan?"
"Huh? Fei Chuan? Impossible!"
"I think that’s Fei Chuan. The tyrant’s partner is Fei Chuan."
"I thought I was imagining things, but the man really looked like Fei Chuan." The n in the crowd seed to notice it more keenly than the girls.
The girls couldn’t believe it and denied it. There was no way that was Fei Chuan!
The man they saw was so noble, so beautiful, and magnetic! Very different from the timid and gloomy Fei Chuan!
While the girls tried to defend the handso man they saw, Jang Shin’s eyes were intensely fixed on Bei Sangyun. Like the other n at the banquet, he was captivated by her the mont she entered.
Jang Shin felt it was a pity that Bei Sangyun rejected him. If she had chosen him, based on how she appeared today, she would undoubtedly win the Queen of the Night. Too bad, she had a unique taste.
Jang Shin’s eyes then shifted to the man beside Bei Sangyun.
He also heard what the other students said about him. His eyes could not help but narrow. Unlike the others here, he had seen the previous Fei Chuan when they were kids. The current Fei Chuan was the sa kid from back then.
The kid who sat silently but held everyone’s admiration and attention. His temperant was sharp, overbearing, and deserving of the title of the heir of the great Fei family. He was the nightmare of every kid back then.
"So, this is the real Fei Chuan." It turned out the gloomy and weak appearance he had was just a facade.
Beside Jang Shin, Lin Sunji wore an ugly expression.
She glared in Bei Sangyun’s direction, gritting her teeth. Bei Sangyun’s arrival had stolen the lilight from her.
Lin Sunji glanced at the blue sapphire dress that Bei Sangyun wore and sneered. At least her dress was far superior to Bei Sangyun’s. So what if she ca grandly with a handso escort? She abandoned her previous partner just to get the title. Everyone would surely condemn such action.
Bei Sangyun wouldn’t be able to win just yet. She still had a chance.
Zhong Cheng’s eyes glead with pride the mont everyone’s attention was captivated by his boss and brother-in-law. His nose was raised high as he mocked Wang Jia. "You have to pay ten tis now, right?"
Wang Jia’s face was even darker than Lin Sunji’s. After all, a considerable amount of money was at stake. However, she soon regained her composure.
"It’s not over yet. I don’t know where the tyrant found that man to be her escort. But changing the escort halfway will make her unqualified to compete. Besides, the Queen of the Night isn’t just about being the most popular couple. They have to be the most grand in every aspect, from their dance to every piece of clothing they wear!"
"Bei Sangyun’s dress was off-the-rack, costing only several thousand dollars, while Lin Sunji’s dress was custom-made and worth two million dollars! There’s no need for any comparison," Wang Jia confidently asserted.
Zhong Cheng sneered, "You accuse others of being blind, but you’re the one who is blind. That handso man is my brother-in-law. You couldn’t even recognize Fei Chuan. And can’t you see how they arrived? They rode a white phantom limousine. If Jang Shin and Lin Sunji had arrived here in a luxury plane, I might have agreed with you."
Wang Jia: "...."
She gritted her teeth, unwilling to be outdone. "That man is not Fei Chuan. And Bei Sangyun has nothing noteworthy about her at all. She won’t win!"
While Zhong Cheng and Wang Jia were arguing, the table behind them suddenly gasped in shock.
"I was wondering where I had seen those earrings. They appeared in the auction before!"
"Earrings? Those blue gems? Are they expensive?" Her partner seed interested. He also noticed those striking pair of gems. He peered at her phone, then exclaid in shock.
"Whaaa-! It’s six million dollars?!" His loud voice attracted attention, prompting many people to inquire about the cause of his fuss. He imdiately pointed at his partner’s phone. "The earrings that the tyrant is wearing are called the ’Tears of rmaid.’ They’re worth six million dollars." He uttered dumbfoundedly.
These young misses and young masters were born with silver spoons in their mouths. Even though they were wealthy enough to afford most things they desired in life, squandering such an exorbitant amount on accessories was beyond their usual indulgences.
Even the tyrant was an illegitimate daughter, she was favored than most of them- the illegitimate ones.
First, the white phantom, and now this pair of earrings; the tyrant was truly living up to her na!
Wang Jia heard the commotion among the students around her and paled. Zhong Cheng was also taken aback. Then, a huge grin spread across his face as he mocked Wang Jia.
"You are right. Not only popularity, but everything they wear should be considered." He then smiled evilly at her, "Please prepare the money and bring it to after the announcent. You won’t be a coward and back out from your words, right?"
Wang Jia gritted her teeth, "It’s not over yet!"
The rumor that Bei Sangyun wore the ’Tears of rmaid’ also reached Lin Sunji’s table. She was taken aback and glanced in Bei Sangyun’s direction, her eyes fixated on the deep blue sapphire gem on Bei Sangyun’s ears.
Those were the ’Tears of rmaid’?
Lin Sunji learned about this item from the store owner who had recomnded her a set of jewelry. The store owner ntioned that soone had finally bought the Tears of rmaid in an auction from Country G.
The Tears of rmaid boasted not only the finest craftsmanship and rarest stones but also derived its value from the intriguing history behind it.
According to the store owner, this earring was once part of a set owned by the princess of an ancient civilization. Legend had it that the deep blue sapphire gem on the set was made from rmaid’s tears and could grant wishes once the gem shattered.
