Transmigration: From Dragon Princess To Pampered Granddaughter
Chapter 862 - 860: The Unostentatious Luxury

Chapter 862: Chapter 860: The Unostentatious Luxury

As for other wealthy people, some believed while others did not.

After all, considering how focused Helian Qiao was on eating during the banquet, there was no way she resembled the daughter of a rich magnate!

That evening, on the dock of Harbor City, a luxurious and opulent yacht was moored.

Luxury cars were parked nearby, as tycoons with their female companions and daughters of affluent families, along with stars and celebrities, descended from their vehicles and walked toward the yacht, being led onto the deck by a staff member.

Helian Qiao, her arm linked with Gu Tingyun’s, walked on the red carpet. Upon reaching the deck, the couple immediately drew all the attention from those present.

It was not just because of the morning newspapers’ coverage.

But also because she wore a pair of high-heeled shoes encrusted with diamonds. Even though she was still not wearing any jewelry, the shoes alone were enough to shock the entire assembly!

It wasn’t that the others couldn’t afford it, but embedding diamonds on shoes, although beautiful, was indeed too damaging for the gems!

At the same time, a question arose in everyone’s mind: who exactly was she?

Bai Jingjing, upon seeing this, was full of jealousy and discontent.

She was clearly just a dumb and gluttonous poor girl who had merely caught Gu Tingyun’s eye with her looks, far from resembling a rich miss!

Lies!

The newspaper reports must have been fake!

When Bai Weiyin saw Helian Qiao, she stepped forward to greet her, her tone affectionate, "Qiaoqiao, you’ve arrived!"

Indeed!

Her unadorned, little white rabbit look was the most charming!

By doing this, she was clearly signaling to everyone that she was on Helian Qiao’s side.

"Tingyun, it’s a good thing you’re taken, or else the beauties of Harbor City wouldn’t give me the time of day!" He Junlin also came over with his hands in his pockets, nodded to Gu Tingyun in greeting, and then turned to admire Helian Qiao, saying, "Miss Chen, you are truly the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Jewelry pales in comparison to you."

Flattery!

Bai Weiyin glared at him, "He, hold your smooth talk, Qiaoqiao is also taken."

Fearing he’d lead the little white rabbit astray.

"As if I’d dare to compete with Tingyun for someone. I’m merely stating the truth," He Junlin said with a wry smile.

Let alone Gu Tingyun, if his father heard him, he’d surely skin him alive!

Gu Tingyun naturally could feel He Junlin’s intentions, and he knew they were genuine.

The Little Princess was praised and carried herself with a proud, triumphant expression, quite obviously pleased.

Under the illumination of the lights, her skin was luminous and glowing, filled with the vibrancy of youth.

The Viscountess, dressed to the nines and adorned with diamonds and jewelry, had assumed that Helian Qiao would certainly wear the Star of Hope, considering such an occasion required one to showcase their wealth. She intended to overshadow Helian, but Helian’s understated luxury instead captured everyone’s gaze.

For a moment, the Viscountess’s face darkened with anger.

Immediately, other ladies noticed her displeasure and began to flatter her, eager to please.

"Viscountess, your necklace is absolutely dazzling, so suitable for you, and it must be incredibly valuable, right?"

"With the Viscountess’ status, of course, you wouldn’t fancy any cheaper items. Just this purity alone is of the finest quality!"

"And those earrings and rings, visibly worth over a million, the Viscountess exudes nobility!"

...

As the women sang her praises, the Viscountess’s mood improved. Touching the ring on her finger, she said with a nonchalant air, "Oh, it really wasn’t that expensive; just a trifle, really."
