Tonight’s party, supposedly a classmate gathering, was in fact Lin Linglang’s birthday celebration.
The Lin Family is wealthy, holding their daughter’s birthday parties in such grand and opulent hotels.
Tonight, Lin Linglang was clearly the star of the show; since 7:30, she had been standing in the center of the lobby, extravagantly dressed, exuding an aura of luxury.
Her female classmates couldn’t help but envy her tonight’s grandeur.
The Lin Family was famously wealthy, a fact known to everyone even during their school days.
Lin Linglang was indeed the favored daughter of heaven, pampered like a princess at ho and treated like one at school as well.
She was also publicly recognized as the school beauty on the school forum, receiving adoration from everyone.
For the boys, Lin Linglang wasn’t just a beautiful girl, but also a symbol of wealth and power.
Perhaps in the entirety of Ye City, there weren’t few wealthy families like the Lin Family, but in their school, in their circle, they truly were few.
Thus, Lin Linglang was always surrounded by the admiring gazes of boys and the envious glances of girls.
"In fact, I don’t find her pretty at all."
Among a group of girls in a corner, soone muttered.
Ye Shushu was also there, but she was just eating, not talking.
Another girl nudged her: "Actually, your ex-deskmate was better looking than Lin Linglang."
"Are you talking about Yinian? She looks even better now." ntioning Xia Yinian, Ye Shushu smiled.
"Last ti I saw her on the street, she looked much prettier than before, really, I almost didn’t recognize her."
"You an that pauper from the Xia Family?" A girl sneered disdainfully, "With that kind of poverty, how good can she really look?"
"The Xia Family is also wealthy; don’t talk like that." Ye Shushu glared at her.
The girl snorted coldly: "Xia Family might be wealthy, but it’s not Xia Yinian who is wealthy, everyone knows she’s just a wild child picked up from sowhere."
"You’re talking nonsense! Yinian is indeed a child of the Xia Family, don’t slander her!" Ye Shushu argued.
"That child is also from a lowly lady, not fit to be seen in public."
The majority seed to agree with the girl’s words.
"Look at her older sister, Xia Chuxue, now she is truly a rich family’s daughter with such elegance in manners and speech."
"Xia Yinian? She’s just an ugly duckling! Have you ever seen her wear any high-quality clothes during school?"
"Nian Nian just donated all her money to the orphanage, you wouldn’t understand her kindness."
Ye Shushu couldn’t be bothered with them; these people were just trying to belittle Xia Yinian because she was pretty.
In fact, Yinian was better than anyone, she really was wonderful.
"Ah! Yinian is here!" Ye Shushu stood up, looking at the girl who walked through the door, her face filled with joy: "It really is Yinian."
"How could that be?"
Not just the few girls in the corner, but others in the lobby who noticed the entrance, all showed shocked expressions.
That girl... really the ugly duckling Xia Yinian? How could it be?
Wasn’t Xia Yinian always unkempt, forever dressed in cheap street stall clothes? How is she tonight... dressed so... nobly?
Yes, tonight’s Xia Yinian had an air of nobility that was utterly pristine!
She wasn’t just any girl, she clearly looked like an angel who had accidentally tumbled to earth.
Her innocent eyes, delicate features, exuding resistance and unease towards everything around.
This slight bewildernt attracted the gaze of every male in the venue.
