Chen Yuhui looked very striking today in an orange butterfly-patterned jacket, long pale-yellow cloud-silk skirt, her hair adorned with pearls and jade, her face as rosy as a peach.
To make her stand out, Chen Yuqing dressed very subtly in a lavender embroidered robe. Chen Afu's outfit was even more modest, not because she wanted to emphasize Chen Yuhui, but because she had no mood to dress up. She wore a lotus-color robe, with her hair simply adorned with two jade pins and her makeup kept light.
Even in plain attire, Chen Afu looked more beautiful than Chen Yuhui.
Chen Yuhui certainly didn't think so, for when He Linsheng entered, she was taken aback by his elegance. But when she noticed that his gaze didn't linger on her, but rather admired Chen Afu, her face flushed with anger. She held her handkerchief tightly, feeling resentful.
