Although Wen Xinya and Xia Ruya had fallen out with each other, they were both intelligent people who knew not to let the cat out of the bag during the gala. Hence, they remained composed and pretended to be at ease with each other.
Xia Ruya glanced at Wen Xinya and said smilingly,
Xinya, you’re really beautiful today.

Staring at the set of black agate jewelry that greatly complemented Wen Xinya, Xia Ruya could not help but be reminded of the set of black jade jewelry that she had intended to pair with her white gown, but ended up realizing that they looked dull on her because of her skin that had gotten darker after two arduous years in Yun Chuan.
Wen Xinya smiled calmly and asked,
Is that so?

Although Xia Ruya only meant it as a casual compliment, she began scrutinizing Wen Xinya after hearing the latter’s rhetorical response. She answered,
The color of your gown suits you very well. Gray symbolizes prestige and elegance and the black agate jewelry complements your fair skin as well. You look absolutely stunning.



There was a tinge of mockery in what seemed to be a compliment on the surface. It was as if she was trying to say that Wen Xinya had to dress in the prestigious colors gray and silver in order to bring attention to herself.
Wen Xinya scanned her surroundings and said,
You’re very beautiful tonight too. Although there are many other ladies here who are also dressed in blue gowns, none of them can carry the color off as well as you do. The color of your gown has made up for the dullness of your skin and made you look elegant and pretty.


Is… is that so?
Wen Xinya’s words had compelled Xia Ruya to look around the banquet hall, only to discover that there were indeed several others who were dressed in blue gowns. To make matters worse, there was even a lady who was coincidentally dressed in the same gown as her, thus making her feel awkward and embarrassed about the clashing of outfits.
Noticing the sullen expression on her face, Wen Xinya smiled and said,
The designs of your gowns are actually different—hers aren’t as posh or elegant as yours. Don’t worry about it.

Xia Ruya managed to force a smile. She could not stop herself from taking another look at the rest of the guests, only to discover that the set of diamonds she had meticulously picked out seemed to pale in comparison to others and appeared extremely ordinary and dull even though they were extremely expensive.
Most of the guests had opted for diamond jewelry. Yet, no one was dressed in an outfit that was similar to Wen Xinya’s.
Well, it was understandable since gray and silver were colors that were tough to carry and most women were afraid to take the risk. Meanwhile, jade went well with elegance and most people couldn’t pull off jade jewelry, and some may even end up embarrassing themselves.
Seeing the mysterious yet elegant aura that Wen Xinya was exuding, Xia Ruya could not help but find that her gown was much more inferior and lowly compared to Wen Xinya’s, so were her expensive diamonds which seemed cheap next to Wen Xinya’s black agate.
At this moment, Wen Xinya burst into laughter and said,
I initially thought that you two were merely dressed in the same color. I didn’t expect that the design of her gown would be the exact same as yours.

Greatly taken aback, Xia Ruya looked in the direction that Wen Xinya was staring at, only to realize that the lady’s gown was closely similar to hers. She had failed to see the identicalness earlier on because her beau had blocked Xia Ruya’s view.


Wen Xinya then gasped in shock and stared at the lady in disbelief.
Ruya, hurry and take a look at that lady. Isn’t she Sun Xiaorou, that actress who shot to fame by selling her body and appearing in adult films?

Flabbergasted, Xia Ruya stared at the woman who was standing at a short distance away. She looked extremely sultry and had thick makeup on her face, giving off the vibes of a hussy.
Sun Xiaorou!
That adult film actress who has a bad reputation in the circle.
She had joined the entertainment industry after starring in an erotic film.
Later on, she even rose to fame because of her sultry beauty and her voluptuous body.
Last year, news of Sun Xiaorou being the mistress of one of the tycoons of the upper-class society were exposed together with some of her nude photos and videos, all of which were circulated around the internet. Everyone was shocked out of their senses.
Later on, it was also revealed that Sun Xiaorou had slept with more than 50 men.
However, Sun Xiaorou was not at all bothered by the controversy around her and instead continued to stay in the entertainment industry. After all, openly brazen and liberal women like her were hard to come by and lots of men were greatly attracted to those qualities of hers even though they knew that she was a promiscuous woman.
Hence… Sun Xiaorou had been labeled as a shameless slut.


Xia Ruya was actually dressed in the same outfit as a loose woman.
Xia Ruya swayed unsteadily from side to side, seemingly unable to take the sudden realization.
At this moment, some of the reporters seemed to have discovered it and began snapping photos of Xia Ruya and Sun Xiaorou. In the midst of being flustered, Xia Ruya noticed that Sun Xiaorou was staring at her in contempt with raised brows and allowing the reporters to snap photos of her.
Reason being, she could gain more fame thanks to the clout that Xia Ruya enjoyed as a member of the Zhishan Club.
Wen Xinya’s eyes widened in shock and she exclaimed,
Ruya, you’re actually dressed in the same outfit as Sun Xiaorou. Oh dear! The reporters are all snapping photos of you!

Xia Ruya could already imagine what the headlines would be—
Zhishan Club member Xia Ruya coincidentally dresses in the same outfit as adult film star Sun Xiaorou!

How could she be associated to Sun Xiaorou?
Such news would definitely ruin her reputation again, especially since she had just become a member of the Zhishan Club.
At this moment, lots of guests had also discovered the outfit clash and hence, began chatting and gossiping amongst themselves.

Look, Xia Ruya and Sun Xiaorou are actually dressed in the same outfit! The colors and designs are so similar.




Who do you think wears it better?


They both look good in their own ways. Xia Ruya looks elegant and pretty while Sun Xiaorou’s curves make her look ravishing and sexy…

Xia Ruya continued to stand still while others scrutinized and gossiped about her. The reporters were snapping way in a frenzy and Xia Ruya turned as pale as a sheet. She hurriedly scrambled away.
However, the reporters swarmed towards her and took chase.
Wen Xinya smirked and thought to herself, Xia Ruya ought to get a taste of her own medicine now that the tables have turned.

She had no idea if Xia Ruya would wear the same gown that she did in the previous lifetime. However, she recalled all of the dresses that Xia Ruya had donned in their previous lifetime and hired a tailor to make some dresses according to the designs from her memory. She then sent the dresses to Sun Xiaorou’s manager under the pretext of it being a sponsorship offered to Sun Xiaorou.
Xia Ruya had shown up to the gala in a gown that she donned in her previous lifetime. Hence, Wen Xinya sent the design of that dress to Sun Xiaorou’s manager. Needless to say, Sun Xiaorou would definitely not miss the opportunity to gain some fame by being associated to Xia Ruya, the freshly minted member of Zhishan Club.
