Helian Jiao Er could clearly hear the people around her gasping for air.

She then turned her head toward the lady who was walking over.

How could it be her?

It was the ‘village girl’ from firecracker street!

The lady was wearing a wine red evening gown while walking under the radiance of the sunset. She was holding an umbrella embedded with a black feather with her fair-skinned fingers. She only exposed her face to the public. With a pair of indolent eyes, fair skin, and her long curly hair cascaded down her back at will, it exuded a conception of pureness almost to the extent of perfection.

The people around Helian Jiao Er were stunned. “Who is she?”

“How do I know?” Helian Jiao Er bit her lips while grabbing her fist tightly. She did not expect that this woman would be qualified to participate in the appearance evaluation!

One of them who was in the crowd took a glance at Helian Jiao Er and said, “Jiao Er, your tone is a little bit unusual.”

“I’m sorry.” Helian Wei Wei rubbed her head and said, “Maybe it’s because I am too tired. I have not been feeling well these few weeks.”

That individual nodded but his eyes were on that lady all the while even after she left. “Gorgeous! She looks so beautiful! With her fair skin and long legs, she looks exactly like an angel!”

“Haha. Yes, she is.” Helian Jiao Er spoke untruthfully. She had no idea whether it was her illusion or not because that person’s facial features were familiar to her. It felt like they had been staying together for a long time in the past.

Forget about it. This was not the main issue.

The key was to get rid of this ‘village girl’ who came from firecracker street.

Just as Helian Jiao Er was brainstorming, there came the sound of people making noise. “The results of the appearance evaluation are released! Go and have a look at your ranking!”

All the ladies were extremely excited even though they already knew about their rankings.

One of them raised her voice and said, “With Jiao Er here competing with us, we would never be able to get the first place!”

“Oh, sister! Don’t try to make fun of me…” Helian Jiao Er blushed as she felt shy. “Yun Biluo is competing too. She attended the appearance evaluation in the morning, so I have no idea what is her number.”

“Alright, alright. I shall stop messing around with you but honestly, you and Yun Biluo are the two most beautiful ladies in the entire Capital. Either Yun Biluo or you would definitely appear to be in the first place.” The lady pulled Helian Jiao Er’s hand and walked to check the results upon finishing her words.

Helian Jiao Er gave out a sweet smile on her face as she was enjoying the moment. She had temporarily forgotten about the ‘village lady’ she met just now.

However, when she saw her ranking on the published list, her smile turned stiff.

Even the lady who dragged her there felt shocked as she could not believe her eyes. She immediately scanned through the number she was holding in her hand to match with the published name list on the wall.

“What? How is this possible?”

“Jiao Er is in third place?”

“That’s weird. Who is the one in the second place?”

The crowd habitually ignored the first place in the list because they all had it in their mind than Yun Biluo would be the one. Therefore, they were searching for the number that belonged to the contestant who ranked second in panic.

“Number 5? Who is Number 5?”

There was no answer.

Each and every one of the ladies was confused. They were having doubts about this ‘second place’ who came out all of a sudden.

Some of them whispered and asked, “Why don’t you guys go and ask who holds the Number 11 that ranked the first?”

“What for? That would definitely be Yun Biluo. I’ll immediately pass her this good news once I’m back to the academy!”

Helian Jiao Er could no longer hear what they were saying in her surroundings. She had placed her entire focus onto the name list on the wall. She felt like she had fallen into a swamp.

Third place?

How could she be in third place?

Was it because of that ‘village lady’ who had just walked away?

Helian Jiao Er was extremely mad about the results. She had never thought that the ‘village lady’ would go that far in this appearance evaluation.

Which fugly b*tch dared to step over this beautiful young lady from the wealthy General Residence?

She swore to crush the face of the ‘village lady’ when she found out who she really was!

Helian Jiao Er was having some evil thoughts in getting rid of this b*tch. She then turned around and told the maid beside her to bribe the person in-charged of this appearance evaluation. She was trying to disqualify the ‘village lady’ from the competition!

However, it was not as easy as Helian Jiao Er thought this time.

The maid came back to her, shaking her head.

Helian Jiao Er did not expect that her money could no longer solve the problem she was facing!

“What is going on now?”

The maid looked around and said, “The person-in-charge did not take the money. He looked scared and even his face turned pale.”

“Argh!” Helian Jiao Er started becoming impatient. She turned up her volume and said, “That is definitely a freshly hired staff who had never done anything like this before! I’ll go straight to the manager and get things done!”

“Yes…” The maid lowered her head respectfully.

It only took Helian Jiao Er a few minutes to find the head of the organizer for this appearance evaluation, Lord Liao. Lord Liao’s eyes popped upon seeing Helian Jiao Er. He scanned through Helian Jiao Er from the bottom to the top with his eyes.

Usually, Helian Jiao Er would choose not to meet with this Lord Liao because he would look at her with the most unpleasant leer even though he was almost the same age as her father.

“Come over here Jiao Er. Tell Uncle Liao what happened.” Lord Liao reached out his hand and pulled Helian Jiao Er toward himself. He then told her to sit on the wooden chair right beside him.

If it was last time, Helian Jiao Er would definitely ignore him. However, she understood exactly what the current situation was of the General Residence.

She had to soften her attitude if she wanted to succeed. “Lord Liao, I would like to ask you a favor.”

Helian Jiao Er softened her voice and started to act in a pettishly charming manner.

Lord Liao immediately fell for her. He then placed his hand onto Helian Jiao Er’s hand, which he had been yearning for day and night. “What is it? Your Uncle Liao would do anything and everything for you.”

Helian Jiao Er had done some research on the sexual relationship between men and women in the past to alienate Helian Wei Wei from Murong Changfeng.

She had a dream exactly the same night, as though she had consumed the forbidden fruit.

While Mr Liao was touching her hand, she felt like her entire body was burning.

As Helian Jiao Er did not resist, Mr Liao started getting cheeky. He placed his hand on her lap and moved his head closer to her. “Jiao Er is getting more and more attractive, not to mention, your fair skin…”

Helian Jiao Er did not pushed him away. Instead, she responded with a soft “hmm”.

Upon getting the signal, Lord Liao’s eyes turned bright. He lifted her up right away and kissed her in the face…
