President Qin's Little Wife Is The Strongest

51 Attracting Jealousy

As the young miss of the Sun Family, Sun Li also had a lot of people watching her so as soon as she entered the hall, a lot of people looked her way while some men were also thinking of how to get her attention.

It was after all common knowledge that it was extremely difficult to get into this young Miss good books.

And it was just as easy to cross her. With all the love and pampering from her brothers, a lot of people preferred to stay out of her way, after all, it was better to not be noticed by her than to incur her wrath.

In the next moment, the door opened again and a figure in white stepped into the hall. Almost as if she was an Angel, the entire hall quietened and even people that had been talking stopped to look over at the cause of the abrupt silence.

“So beautiful!” A young master said breaking the spell of silence.

Although she was still in high school, Rong Yue had an height that was enough to qualify her as a model. With her small figure that was accentuated by the cream dress, she had the right to take the attention off everyone.

More importantly was her face that was astonishingly beautiful. For anyone meeting her for the first time, they all had a similar reaction upon seeing that flawless porcelain like face that stirred hearts so easily.

Seeing their reaction, Sun Li smiled happily before walking back to meet her.

“I left you a seat beside me.” She told her as the both of them walked to the top seats by the head table of the banquet.

.....

“Is this your friend?” Zhao Yan, Sun Li’s mom asked as she looked at Rong Yue excitedly. For someone that could never get her daughter to act like a girl, seeing such a beauty made her happy.

More importantly, the aura around Rong Yue was really good, she had an aura that seemed to be from deep in her bones and not the usual superficial aura that girls had.

“Yes mom, she’s the one I invited.” Sun Li allowed Rong Yue sit beside her and then leaned back so that her mother could see her.

“Yue’er, meet my mom. Mom, meet Rong Yue, she’s my only friend in school.” She introduced the both of them and Rong Yue greeted the woman politely while ignoring all the countless gazes on them.

Since Zhou Yan already knew that Rong Yue wasn’t from any top family from her daughter, she didn’t bother to introduce.

Originally, she had hoped the friend wouldn’t feel intimidated in their circle, after all, it took quite a while for her only daughter to get a friend but after seeing Rong Yue, she realized it was the other way around.

Before long, other guests arrived filling the big hall and Wu Hao waved at the two of them from where he was.

Since banquet usually considered the host relationship to the guest and the family, Wu Hao’s family seating was quite some distance away from them.

However, Rong Yue noticed from where she sat very quickly that while there were two young people in front of him, Wu Hao was only at the back.

Seeing where she was looking, Sun Li leaned in and explained to her.

“Although he’s the son of the first wife, his mom already died when he was young and his father brought home another woman with children already. So even as the first son, he doesn’t have that much fighting power so he would only follow his family arrangement.” She explained to her in a low voice that only Rong Yue could hear.

Hearing his story, Rong Yue felt pity for him immediately while feeling sympathy at the life of the rich, she could already imagine how hard it would be for him, after all, she had once lived with her mother in one of these elite families until she had enough.

The party soon started and Sun Li’s brothers, the three of them came forward while the one that was being celebrated Sun Yan was dressed in his military uniform.

Everyone greeted him and Rong Yue noticed very quickly that every parent that went to greet him went with a daughter to present the gift.

It was easy to see why he had stood out in the army, even though he had a little tan that showed how much time he had spent a lot of time outside, his body build was impressive and even in a city like this, he had a very good aura.

The type that was rare to see in the capital. More than that, she could see also see the roughness that came from spending quite some time on the battlefield.

It was hard to feign an aura like that.

“Why does it feel like they are offering him the girls instead of the gifts?” Rong Yue asked teasingly after a while when she saw Sun Li’s pout as they were being gifted.

“That’s exactly what they are doing.” She replied with a hiss.

“They don’t know how much efforts he had kept into becoming that relevant in the army, we barely see him once in three years back then. Now that he’s achieved his goal, they want their daughters and family to have an easy life by marrying my brother.” She ranted as she glared at all the people that dared to look her way.

“But don’t worry, my brother certainly can’t like girls like that. They look so fake and exhausting.” She added.

Rong Yue nodded before feeling like her words were weird.

Why did it sound like she was trying to placate her on behalf of her brother?

Although while many people were going to greet Sun Yan, a lot of the male guests were also bidding their time to talk to Rong Yue as they tried to find her identity.

As they Rong Yue and Sun Li were talking, in another corner of the hall, two girls were whispering while looking at Rong Yue with hateful eyes.

“Why does it really look like her? Although she’s all dolled up, I can’t forget the face of that vixen!” One of them said as she leaned forward to check Rong Yue out more.

With the limelight on her, it was only normal that she would also attract jealousy.
