"Alright, Zhuyue, make sure to dress up beautifully and knock her down a peg," Mrs. Shen instructed as she walked out.
Shortly after, Shen Zhiyue, having redone her hair and makeup, descended the stairs.
Dressed in a dazzling red gown, her makeup exquisite, and hair styled in large curls, she looked stunningly gorgeous.
"Wow, look who's here! Whose noble daughter is this? So beautiful and elegant, I can hardly believe it's my own daughter," Mrs. Shen enthusiastically approached. "Zhuyue, you really bring honor to our Shen Family. As a mother, I am beyond proud and boastful to have a daughter like you."
"Okay, it's getting late, I should go now."
Shen Zhiyue had long been accustomed to her mother's usual tricks and simply replied, "I will handle Jin Ning'er. But I won't be marrying into the Lin Family."
She never intended to marry Lin Shaoyang.
