The female cannon fodder in the book, the villain instantly turned into a pitiful and coquettish gir

As soon as Liu Jingshu saw Liu Yaoyao's graceful figure stepping into the threshold, she immediately greeted her with a beautiful smile.

The posture seemed as if they were not welcoming guests, but a good show that was about to be staged.

"Oh, sister, I didn't invite you, but you came here just because you smelled the scent. Haha, we are so in tune with each other."

Liu Jingshu covered her mouth and laughed.

Behind her, the mistress of the He family, the largest imperial merchant family in Beijing, had such an aura that it seemed as if she brought her own gold ingots with her, and an expression that said "I understand you" on her face.

Mrs. He understood what he meant and took over the conversation, and she started to speak with golden sentences.

"Princess Chen, what you said is wrong. Seriously speaking, Princess Han is your fourth sister-in-law, how can you blame her?

Besides, who among us didn't come here for the golden signboard of "Beauty and Smile Shop"? If Princess Chen has any objections to this, she should probably look in the mirror first to see if she has that..."

Having said this, Mrs. He paused deliberately, a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she covered her mouth.

He looked as if he was telling a huge secret, but accidentally revealed it.

Liu Yaoyao narrowed her eyes, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she fought back without any ambiguity.

"Mrs. He's right, but no matter how much a pheasant dresses up, it can never turn into a real phoenix flying in the sky.

We still have to face reality, so as not to fly for a long time and then find out that we are just going in circles."

"you!"

When Mrs. He heard this, she became so angry that her face turned blue, and she waved her well-maintained hands out involuntarily, as if to blow away all the unhappiness.

Liu Yaoyao was prepared and dodged easily by turning her body to the side.

On the contrary, Mrs. He herself, because she used too much force, stumbled and fell flat on the ground. Her posture was so awkward that it was like a live performance of "dog eating shit".

Seeing this, Liu Yaoyao not only did not show any sympathy, but instead took advantage of the situation and stepped firmly on Mrs. He's skirt.

The force was just right, making Mrs. He unable to move.

"Mrs. He, didn't you say that this play would only be better if it was performed in full?

"I saw that you were acting very enthusiastically, so I finished your lines for you. What's wrong? You are... so overacting that you don't even remember who you are?"

Liu Yaoyao curled the corners of her mouth, and that smile was like the most cunning fox in spring, both smug and with a bit of teasing after a successful prank, and it shot straight at Liu Jingshu.

Look, this is what happens when you offend Liu Yaoyao.

It is naturally 'brilliant'.

Liu Jingshu, the revenge for imprisonment will not be let go just like that.

"Sister, oh - Fourth sister-in-law, your 'Beauty and Smile Shop' is very popular in the capital, how come?

It's not enough to make a fortune, so he's in such a hurry to recruit people to join. Is it because he's afraid that his own pocket is too heavy and wants to find someone to share some of the burden?

Or... Oh, I dare not say anything. Maybe there is some shameful secret in the store and they are looking for help to cover it up?"

Liu Yaoyao's words were like a string of cannonballs, each word hitting the point directly, yet still full of wit and humor, causing the ladies present to look at each other in bewilderment and ponder in their hearts.

The suspicions that already existed now grew like weeds.

Liu Jingshu's face froze, and then she forced a smile, but she felt mixed emotions inside.

She didn't expect Liu Yaoyao to be so direct and merciless, and she didn't expect that the plan she had carefully arranged would be thrown into turmoil by just a few words from her.

For the sake of face, she could only maintain the outward harmony and swore secretly in her heart.

"Liu Yaoyao, I, Liu Jingshu, will remember the embarrassment you gave me today. We will slowly settle this!"

The ladies around, after a brief moment of shock, exchanged meaningful glances.

The atmosphere of the banquet became delicate and tense, but the ladies were veterans after all, and they quickly learned how to dance in this delicate balance.

"Oh, Princess Chen, your mouth is sharper than a knife.

But then again, our Princess Han's beauty shop is the best in the capital, how could there be any problem?"

A noble lady who was on good terms with Liu Jingshu stepped out at the right time to smooth things over. Her words not only saved Liu Jingshu's face but also cleverly changed the subject.

"That's right, Princess Chen, you're probably worrying too much.

Our Princess Han is a famous woman of talent and business, with both intelligence and quotient, is there anything she can't handle?"

Another noble lady followed suit, her words full of compliments to Liu Jingshu.

Liu Yaoyao sneered in her heart but remained expressionless on the surface.

These ladies are just playing along, and no one is willing to take sides easily.

She smiled lightly and changed the subject.

"Look, I was just joking.

There is no overnight hatred between us sisters. Besides, I am just too concerned. I am afraid that if something goes wrong in Fourth Sister-in-law's shop, we sisters will have nowhere to go in the future."

The words were both appropriate and humorous, instantly easing the originally awkward atmosphere.

The ladies nodded in agreement, and at the same time secretly admired Liu Yaoyao's ability to respond.

However, Liu Yaoyao's heart was as clear as a mirror.

She knew clearly that although she had the upper hand on the surface in today's battle, the real contest had just begun.

The grudges and hatred between her and Liu Jingshu could not be resolved in a few words.

In this game of power, she must always be vigilant and take every step carefully in order to have the last laugh in this war without gunpowder.

She picked up the teacup and shook it gently. The crystal liquid sparkled alluringly in the sunlight.

Liu Yaoyao tilted her head back and drank the tea as if it were wine with extraordinary passion.

She didn't notice the strange look on Liu Jingshu's face.
