C33 Jumping Clown

Bai Ruoshui's face was flushed red as she stood on the stage. Although that strike just now did not injure her, as a young miss of the Prime Minister's Hall, she had never made such a big mistake before. When she turned around and saw that Bai Suyue had already become the focus of everyone's attention, she became even more furious.

She awkwardly stood on the stage and shot an indifferent glance at Bai Suyue. With an extremely cold expression, she walked up to Eldest Madame.

When she saw her approaching, her eyes narrowed. She patted the back of her hand and whispered, "You're a young miss, how can you not know how to be grateful? She just saved you in front of everyone's eyes. Why don't you go over and feel grateful?"

Bai Ruoshui raised her head with a face full of unwillingness, but she knew that Mrs. Wei was doing it for her reputation. If she were to be scolded for not knowing how to repay the favor, it would be detrimental to her reputation.

After receiving Eldest Madame's guidance, Bai Ruoshui's lips curled up into a smile. With great difficulty, she walked up to Bai Suyue.

"Little Sister Yue'er, it's all thanks to you just now that I wasn't injured. I am truly grateful. In return, I will give you this bracelet!"

As Bai Ruoshui spoke, she removed the bracelet from her wrist. Bai Suyue's eyes flashed with understanding.

"It's just a small matter. Cousin Ruoshui doesn't need to worry about it!"

As Bai Suyue spoke, she pushed back the bracelet in Bai Ruoshui's hand with a calm and courteous expression. She wanted to use this small gift of hers to offset her previous kindness. Bai Ruoshui was simply dreaming.

Bai Ruoshui wasn't the type to have thick skin to begin with. Seeing Bai Suyue fail to appreciate her kindness, she felt even more disgusted with her. However, she didn't say anything and kept her bracelet and retreated.

Eldest Madame's eyes darkened as she looked at Bai Suyue with a different gaze than before.

Earlier, she didn't take Bai Suyue seriously at all. The reason for this competition was only to provide her daughter with an opportunity to show off her skills. But now, it seemed that Bai Suyue had become the main character.

But even so, Eldest Madame didn't think much of it. After all, Bai Suyue's reputation was ruined by the crown prince, so who would dare to marry such an unclean girl?

Feng Qingcheng gently moved to Feng Muling's side, and on his soft jade-like face, there was a teasing look: "Looks like royal brother is a little stumped, I didn't see that this girl in front of me was actually an unpolished jade wrapped in the outer appearance of a popinjay. If we don't judge her by her appearance, this Miss Bai from General's Estate is much stronger than your delicate beauty, and is more suitable to be Crown Princess!"

Feng Muling's expression suddenly turned cold. His gaze towards Feng Qingcheng turned unfriendly, "Are you mocking this crown prince?"

Although Yan Yingrou was currently recuperating in his residence, no matter how one looked at it, it was impossible for Crown Princess's position to belong to a female slave.

Feng Muling was a bit annoyed. He looked at Bai Suyue with an even more unhappy expression.

"What's the difference between putting on an act and those women in the harem? You can tell with a glance that she's an extremely vicious woman and that she's not even worthy to be compared with Rou of this prince!"

Feng Qingcheng was flabbergasted by Feng Muling's expression, as well as the girls in heaven and earth. None of them could match up to his family's Rou.

He carefully looked at Feng Muling for a while. It was said that the royal family was the most heartless. Could it be that the crown prince had found true love?

A hint of curiosity appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he was also a little interested in Yan Yingrou. His gaze darkened slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his warm face.

Time quickly passed. On the stage, over ten women once again competed in the other etiquette.

However, Bai Suyue had completed it so perfectly that no one was able to find a single mistake while bowing and bowing.

Bai Suyue was well aware of some etiquette skills that even Bai Ruoshui didn't know about. She was like a scholar who had been through a lot of poetry.

When she finished her speech, it immediately resonated with a lot of officials. Bai Suyue became even more famous in that moment.

Bai Ruoshui's forehead was already sweating. She tugged on Eldest Madame's sleeve, her expression no longer as calm as it had been before. "Mother, it's not that this girl hasn't even read a book, how could she even know this? Even Shui'er didn't remember the contents of the book!"

It wasn't just Bai Ruoshui, even Eldest Madame, who had just named the topic, was starting to panic.

The ones who started the competition were people who were courteous and easy to understand. As long as they were young mistresses, they were capable of doing so.

However, seeing Bai Suyue completing everything perfectly, Eldest Madame's topic became more and more biased. Even the rules and regulations that Bai Ruoshui didn't know about, Bai Suyue could clearly memorize them, and even include some of her own opinions.

The victor of this duel was already apparent.

However, wasn't Bai Suyue a foppish girl who didn't even know how to write? How could she transform into a master of etiquette so quickly after just a short while?

"Eldest Madame, the competition is already over. Shouldn't there be an outcome?"

The crowd had all watched the show and everyone was looking forward to the result. However, the winner had already been decided and they only waited for Eldest Madame to reveal her answer.

Eldest Madame's heart turned serious as she looked in the direction of the madame.

If the victor of this competition was Bai Suyue, then the Prime Minister's Estate wouldn't have the face to see anyone else.

The old mistress' expression was calm. The back of her hand, which was old and thin, was clenching the teacup tightly.

Bai Zhen and Bai Junye, who was among the crowd, saw the change in Bai Suyue's expression. The smile on Bai Zhen's face never stopped ever since the beginning.

His face was filled with pride.

The expression on Bai Junye's face changed from disgust to a warm one gradually. His gaze towards Bai Suyue was no longer icy cold.

After all, they were family. If Bai Suyue had changed her personality earlier, he wouldn't have wanted to end up in such a situation.

Eldest Madame exchanged a glance with the madame. Mrs. Wei understood what he meant and walked directly to the group of women.

"The result of the previous match has already come out. I believe that the winner this time is …" "Bai Ruoshui!"

The three words that came out of Eldest Madame's mouth caused an uproar.

Even the few ladies who were participating in the competition revealed displeasure on their faces.

Bai Ruoshui had repeatedly made mistakes from the start, and her performance was not even as good as theirs. Now that Eldest Madame had stood out and said such words, it was obvious that she was biased towards them.

"Eldest Madame, even if Miss Ruishui is your own daughter, you can't blatantly cheat in front of so many people. In the end, it will just make everyone laugh!"

Eldest Madame's expression was calm, and her expression didn't change in the slightest because of the ridicule from the others.

Bai Suyue stood quietly to the side. She seemed to have expected this outcome.

Bai Ruoshui raised her chin as if it was a matter of course and walked to the front of the crowd. Her eyes were filled with ridicule and ridicule. She knew that she would definitely be the final victor.

Bai Suyue was just a clown.
