Chi Yu's overall demeanor, combined with her pink outfit, didn't exactly make for a stunning visual impression, but it wasn't so garish as to be offensive either.

The reason she chose this outfit for Chi Yu was that she didn't want her to stand out too much at the Old Madam's birthday banquet.
Over the years, having married into the Gu family, Qiao Yu had long understood the undercurrents that swirled beneath its harmonious facade.
The men clashed with each other in the business world, swords flashing in unseen battles, while the women competed relentlessly at banquets and tea parties, never conceding to one another.
