Chapter 183
Dai Zhiman took a seat. This was her first time partic.i.p.ating in the Tianxiang Auction with a first cla.s.s seat.
At first, she was very excited. But when she thought about Baili Hongzhuang in her VIP box, she felt a burst of anger. How could that woman be able to get a VIP box!
At that time, as one of the Imperial City’s cultivators who took Azure Water School’s exam and pa.s.sed, her future was limitless.
This was her first time coming back, so she thought that she would become the center of attention. But no, everyone was talking about Baili Hongzhuang instead!
Asking around a little, she was astonished. How could Baili Hongzhuang get Azure Water School’s invitation letter?
As Azure Water School’s student, she was very clear just how significant an invitation letter was. But, that only made her feel even more jealous!
And the thing she couldn’t stand the most…… was that Baili Hongzhuang was actually married to Dibei Chen!
How could that be!
Baili Hongzhuang picked up the auction’s catalog. Earlier, she’d never even got to take a look. So now, she just wanted to see if there was anything she wanted in the auction.
At this moment, Zhao Yunxi inspected Baili Hongzhuang’s face and suddenly spoke: “Baili Hongzhuang, do you know why Dai Zhiman was so intent on attacking you?”
Baili Hongzhuang raised her eyebrow, “Because I got Azure Water School’s invitation letter?”
Zhao Yunxi nodded but then shook her head, “That’s only one reason. There’s another reason for her hate.”
A touch of confusion fell into her eyes, black like a deep pond. Other than that, she didn’t know why Dai Zhiman would suddenly pick a fight with her ah.
Shao Zifan immediately thought about Zhao Yunxi’s words, and his face immediately turned a bit helpless.
“What is it?” Baili Hongzhuang asked.
“In the past, Dai Zhiman liked Dibei Chen.”
The words rang still. Baili Hongzhuang widened her eyes in shock. She thought of many possibilities, but never believed that it’d be because of that!
Dibei Chen, Dai Zhiman actually liked Dibei Chen?
“Even though both of Chen w.a.n.gye’s legs are crippled, many women inside the Imperial City still admire Dibei Chen. After all, a man with such beauty and grace is truly rare in the world.”
“Originally, the Emperor had intended to betroth Dai Zhiman to Chen w.a.n.gye, especially since everybody knew that she liked him. But in the end, Chen w.a.n.gye refused.”
“Over the past 3 years, the emperor had been constantly finding marriage canidates for Chen w.a.n.gye, but Chen w.a.n.gye didn’t agree once.”
Zhao Yunxi looked at Baili Hongzhuang, her face somewhat strange, “But then when Prime Minister Li proposed an idea to betroth you to Chen w.a.n.gye, Chen w.a.n.gye actually agreed!”
That was something almost n.o.body could believe.
Until now, Chen w.a.n.gye always refused to get married, tactfully declining the Emperor and paying no mind.
But with Baili Hongzhuang, Dibei Chen not only did agree but even dared to offend the General’s Household and made a big display of sending the betrothal gifts just to have the perfect wedding with Baili Hongzhuang.
From this, it was obvious that Dibei Chen truly loved Baili Hongzhuang.
Under such a big gap, how could Dai Zhiman accept it?
Baili Hongzhuang’s eyes twinkled with astonishment. Seeing Shao Zifan nod along, she knew that everything was true.
It seems that she was disdained because of Dibei Chen’s charm ah. Women in the Imperial City just loved him too much.
“So it’s like that.” Baili Hongzhuang smiled.
“But, now at least there’s proof that Chen w.a.n.gye really has great taste,”
Zhao Yunxi looked at Baili Hongzhuang. At first, she couldn’t understand why Dibei Chen ignored the other girls and chose trash instead.
