A trace of jealousy flashed across Shen Yue’s eyes. She did not know since when this useless cousin of hers was actually not inferior to her in terms of looks.
Ren Wanyun was also dazzled by Shen Miao’s outfit. She frowned and said, “Fifth Miss, why are you dressed in such an inauspicious way? You look so plain. people who don’t know might think our family is having a funeral.”
“Second Aunt is wearing bright clothes today,” Shen Miao said with a smile.
Ren Wanyun looked at her clothes and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Shen Miao carefully. She did not know why Shen Miao came back from outside and looked calm. She wanted to confirm something, so she walked up to Shen Miao and held her arm with a smile. She asked with concern, “Did you sleep well last night?”
“Thank you for your concern, Second Aunt. I slept well.” Shen Miao smiled.
Ren Wanyun carefully observed Shen Miao’s expression. Seeing that she did not seem to be faking it, she was a little surprised. When did Shen Miao learn to be so calm? Shouldn’t ordinary girls cry when they encountered such a thing? Why was she so calm? Could it be that she was pretending? She clearly heard a woman crying miserably last night.
Looking at Shen Miao’s clear eyes, Ren Wanyun suddenly felt uneasy, which made her a little flustered. She smiled and leaned closer to Shen Miao, saying, “It’s good to know that you slept well.”
At first glance, she realized that Shen Miao’s neck was as fair as jade. Her skin was originally fair, and at this moment, it was like jade. There was not a trace of dirt on it, let alone scars.
That was impossible. Prince Yu’s way of treating women had always been cruel. How could Shen Miao not have any scars on her body?
Shen Yue looked at Shen Miao and then at Ren Wanyun. She felt that something was wrong, but she did not know what it was.
Ren Wanyun grew more and more uneasy. She grabbed Shen Miao’s hand and said casually, “The weather is really cold. Don’t you feel cold wearing such thin clothes?” As she spoke, Ren Wanyun suddenly tugged at Shen Miao’s sleeve. The sleeve was pulled up, revealing a fair wrist.
Ren Wanyun was stunned on the spot. Shen Miao retracted her hand and smiled. “Second Aunt seems to be checking something.”
“No…” Ren Wanyun forced a smile.” Just now, my hand… was a little slippery.” She was a little absent-minded and did not know what to say. How could there be no scars on Shen Miao’s body? Not to mention a person like Prince Yu, even ordinary men would more or less leave marks on women. Could it be that Prince Yu was not as ruthless as he looked? Shen Miao did not look like she had suffered a lot.
She looked around and only saw Huang Ying and Qing Luan beside Shen Yue, but she did not see Shen Miao’s Jingzhe and Gu Yu. She asked, “Where are Fifth Miss’s two maids? They’ve been gone since early in the morning.”
“I asked them to bring me some porridge. When I woke up this morning, I felt that my throat was a little uncomfortable.”
“This place is far from the kitchen.” Ren Wanyun smiled and said, “Why don’t you tell me you got a sore throat? But, hold on a second, isn’t the kitchen in the south pavilion?”
