Chapter 458: 453, the first lady of China, please keep a low profile (8) Sangeng

Ye Jun Jin left Ye Shaohua and, amidst much adoration, Ye Junwan also came to find Shaohua.

She brought the photos taken the other night and said that in a few days she’d show Shaohua the pictures of Tang Family’s second young master as well.

Unexpectedly, Shaohua didn’t want them, claiming she didn’t like black and white photos.

Ye Junwan felt that Shaohua lacked sophistication and also felt wronged. She had good intentions, wanting to let Shaohua see the world, but Shaohua didn’t recognize her kindness. Worse yet, she said such things in front of her friends.

Tang Qihang, who was quite fond of her, frowned, "Why is she like this?"

"Who knows?" Thinking about it, Ye Junwan remembered something, "Today she wouldn’t even let Auntie Hong go out. I asked why, and guess what the maid said?"

Tang Qihang looked at her, showing a bit of curiosity.

"She said she had calculated for Auntie Hong and that it wasn’t a good day for her to go out, that it would be unlucky," Ye Junwan said with a pang of sorrow, "I’ve always believed not to trust feudal superstitions, but I never expected my own sister to be such a person."

Ye Junwan prided herself on having received an advanced education abroad and deeply despised any remnants of feudalism within the country. She usually debunked the lies of those Taoists and fortune-tellers with science.

She thought herself as the true sage, yet unaware that some were merely simple technologies.

Even will-o’-the-wisps could be explained scientifically. Those people simply did not understand how vast the world is and how immense the realm of science is. Most of those legends about gods and ghosts are really just issues with the magnetic field.

Upon returning to China, Ye Junwan extensively promoted these ideas.

At the time, there were quite a few people going abroad, and the country was supporting these individuals, so her views received widespread support.

Tang Qihang was one of them.

Hearing Ye Junwan’s words and sensing the resentment in her voice, Tang Qihang casually asked, "You don’t like her?"

At his words, Ye Junwan shook her head, "It’s just as well, she’s still my blood sister after all. But if she continues like this..."

It would be best if she didn’t bring those feudal superstitions upon father and mother.

Otherwise—

Ye Junwan wouldn’t mind teaching her a lesson and showing her what science is.

A few days later, Auntie Hong found Shaohua acting quite mysteriously.

Sometimes she would knock on her door for a long time and couldn’t get an answer, only to find her gone when the door opened, and then Shaohua would suddenly return as if from nowhere. The guards arranged by Ye father seemed to be of no use in watching Shaohua.

After a few instances, Auntie Hong, though initially frightened, became quite calm and accustomed to it.

However, she did not know what Shaohua was up to.

All she noticed was that Shaohua’s mood had been getting progressively better, which could be seen from her upward-curving lips.

Shaohua’s current identity was a secret, known to very few people.

But now, most of those involved in politics were aware of her because she was one of the individuals on the nation’s highest-level protection list.

Even Tang Feng wasn’t eligible to be on such a list.

Shaohua rarely left her room, and the guards assigned to her had almost forgotten their duty, or were starting to doubt Ye father’s decision. Was this second Lady even in need of surveillance?

But seeing Shaohua finally leaving her room, the two guards were relieved.

"Your timing is perfect," in the Hall at the Ye Family’s front door, Ye father sat on a chair, a large clock standing behind him, exuding grandeur, "People from the Tang Family will be arriving soon."

"I am aware. It was I who invited them," Shaohua said calmly.

"You?" Ye father was surprised by her response.

He didn’t dwell on it, not even considering how, with Shaohua’s current status, she had managed to contact the Tang Family, or how she conveyed the message to them?

She had never even left the house, so how did she send the message?

Even Ye father, wanting the Tang Family to come over, couldn’t achieve that with a mere word.

Noticing Shaohua wearing unimpressive clothes, he frowned, "Hurry back and change. If you don’t have anything appropriate, go to Wanwan and borrow a set. Her clothes should fit you. Don’t embarrass your sisters by wearing such an outfit."

The aesthetic of present-day Shen City was somewhat peculiar, mostly favoring loose and fluffy Western dresses.

Although modern, it was starkly different from contemporary attire—simply put, it was too exaggerated. Sometimes Shaohua wondered why some people abandoned the more beautiful and glamorous cheongsam for the bulky and very flamboyant skirts of this era.

In her memories of that era of China, the socialites all wore stunning cheongsams.

"No need to change. My purpose is to discuss the termination of the engagement with the Tang Family," Shaohua stated flatly.

At this, Ye father couldn’t help but slam the table, "Reckless girl! What nonsense are you spouting? Even the commander is someone you can just refuse?"

He neither dared nor was willing to refuse, which is why he switched to his second daughter. He never expected that the seemingly easy-to-control second daughter would do such a thing.

Tang Feng was quick-tempered. If he saw his own daughter rejecting his son, even if Ye father was his right-hand man, he might still choose to neglect the Ye Family. This thought brought cold sweat down Ye father’s back.

Ye Junwan, who had come with Ye mother to watch the commotion, looked at Shaohua with some intrigue. This second sister wasn’t as useless as she had imagined.

But indeed, the Tang Family’s second young master was not pleasant to look at, very different from that Tang Qihang. Thinking of Tang Qihang, Ye Junwan drifted into a slight daze.

Just then, a military officer outside spoke up.

"Master, the second young master has arrived!"
