Chen Cheng had no desire to continue this pointless banter, but Shen Qingyao seemed fixated on the question. Looking him in the eye, she asked faintly, "You said I look a lot like Shen Qingshuang. In that case, tell me... which one of us is prettier?
You must be honest. Don't favor her just because you know Shen Qingshuang better.
And don't even think about trying to fool me with lies. I might not have any special talents, but I'm an expert at reading people.
I'll know if you're lying just by looking into your eyes."
'To think that Shen Qingyao, a direct heiress of the Shen Family—one of the Four Great Clans of the Inner City—and hailed as one of the Twin Beauties of Linji City, would act as willfully as the young lady of any common wealthy family.' This came as quite a surprise to Chen Cheng.
When a woman asks if she's prettier than another, the answer she wants to hear is, of course, that she is.
