Chapter 271: The Fallen Pearl (4)
The lower town is very large, or in terms of where people live, most of it belongs to the lower town.
The slum is also located in the lower city and occupies the northern part of the city.
"I have to say that the environment here is a little worse." Compared to the lively, popular downtown area, the slums are a much more chaotic existence.
There is a mix of people living here, and there are some people who are absolutely poor.
For example, the male protagonist Romeo.
But he was a man who wanted to climb up, so he managed to get into the school and became a student. Because of his good grades, he caught up with the child of a rich man and earned some living expenses.
Su Su's main purpose is not to look at him, but the heroine Jenny.
It's just the right time, by the way, look at Romeo.
Romeo seems to be a good person in the slums, and he is greeted warmly by someone on occasion. Su Su followed Shi Yuan so far away, and finally saw Jenny.
It was a girl who looked completely innocent and carefree. She is also very beautiful, with a lovely round face and small facial features, as if she is particularly pure.
Su Su observed for a while, saw Jenny come out to greet Romeo, and then went home - they were neighbors.
"Very cute girl." The corners of Su Su's lips were a little sarcastic, "Innocent, kind, brave, clean temperament, and cute appearance, of course this is more likable than Alice." ”
The original owner was too obvious, everyone knew she was beautiful, but everyone also knew that she was dangerous. At least those aristocrats whose IQ is online must be able to see it.
It's just that no one thought that Alice had so much energy.
Everyone essentially takes what they need, and some people even find Alice to exchange information.
And Jenny, she looks so clean, who will guard against her?
Shi Yuan didn't express his opinion on the heroine, but just asked, "Go back?" ”
"Hmm." Su Su looked at Shi Yuan, "She is so kind, she can help anyone, even forgive people who want to harm her, but she doesn't help Alice...... Do you think it's because of jealousy? ”
Su Su is very optimistic about the original book, and the book is really good.
For the transformation of the heroine Jenny, she didn't advertise that she couldn't help herself, but just slowly pushed her to that inevitable path by events.
It's all in plain sight...... Then maybe Jenny didn't help her 'friend' Alice, and it would be another hidden line.
But it's too subtle, and it's not written in the background at all.
And the memory of the original owner has little reference value, and Alice has her own filter for Jenny.
Su Su couldn't be sure, but there seemed to be no other reason.
"Jenny loves Romeo." This is something that Su Su wants to confirm.
The only thing that Su Su is unhappy about is that everyone thinks she is as kind, tolerant, and generous as an angel.
But that's not the case.
And wandering among the aristocracy is not Alice's intention.
Su Su looked at Shi Yuan, "This can only be the only reason." ”
Shi Yuan looked at her silently for a while, "What can you do if you know the truth?" ”
"It can't be anything, but it can make me stand firm." Su Su turned around and glanced at the hostess's house.
"It's not quite like you." Shi Yuan observed her expression very carefully, "You have never cared about this. ”
"Alice lives too egoless."
Shi Yuan didn't speak.
Su Su's tone was complicated, "She doesn't resent anyone, and she wants to restore the glory of the family." How ridiculous, a girl who has been brainwashed since she was a child, there is no love in her education, everything is something that can be used, including herself...... But she doesn't want to hurt anyone in essence, isn't it Alice who is really kind? ”
"You want to avenge her?"
"I'm afraid that if I don't mess with Romeo, some people won't let him go." Of course, Su Su is talking about Fu Jiahe.
She didn't mention Jenny, because she knew that the other party had no obligation to save Alice.
Su Su hates moral kidnapping, and of course she won't do anything to Jenny because she doesn't help Alice. It's just that Su Su's hypothesis needs to be based, and now that it has been partially confirmed, it is enough.
After changing back into a fancy costume and heading to a high-end restaurant in Uptown, Su Su was a little surprised after tasting the ice cream.
Surprisingly good taste.
That small bowl of ice cream is very expensive and is an absolute rich dessert.
Su Su was satisfied, so he looked at Shi Yuan with a smile, "What about my gift?" ”
"Hopefully it can be worthy of Veris's rose." Shi Yuan opened the box he took out, "I don't know if I have this honor, can I wear it for you?" ”
It was a necklace that looked very valuable, Su Su nodded, and while picking up his original necklace, he said: "Although the rose is very suitable for Alice, I prefer it to be the pearl." "Battle
"Soon everybody will think so." Shi Yuan chuckled, "You're so beautiful, my dear." ”
Su Su understood that he would help her publicize, but she was still a little unhappy, "Where did the word rose come from?" ”
The Oliver family secretly - propaganda guides the title of the first beauty, although it is understandable that it is associated with roses...... But Su Su just didn't like it.
"It's supposed to be Carl." Shi Yuan returned to his seat and muttered for a while before speaking.
Su Su pursed her lips and continued to enjoy her dinner.
…… Then he was sent back by Shi Yuan.
Mrs. Oliver was waiting for Su Su, and after Su Su changed back to her regular clothes at home, Su Su's words made her feel a little relieved, "There hasn't been much backlash, everyone has accepted this well, I will go to Carl's prom tomorrow, and it will be clearer when the time comes." ”
"Anyway, when people talk about it in private, they don't like your style of dancing with only one person." Mrs. Oliver must still be a little worried.
"In this way, you can increase your worth, and if you don't like it, you will still be proud of it." Su Shu paused, "Those girls must be jealous, but from the moment I appear, they will definitely be jealous of me and can't be friends." ”
"Alas......" Lady Oliver sighed rather complicatedly, "rest early, my child. ”
"Good night, Mom."
It always takes time to get feedback on the fermentation of public opinion, and in such a place where there is no Internet and no telephone, people always have to slow down if they want to confirm the results.
Su Su was thinking about it while doing a late routine, after all, foreign countries were still objectifying women during this period. What's more, as the pearl of Veris, she really doesn't dare to relax her figure.
It's even harder than when she was a star.
……
Carl's family has always been left and right among the nobles, they are known as good people, although they seem to be the lowest in the top few families, and they never take care of things, but their popularity is the best.
At the same time, the real ruler of this family is also the patron behind everything arranged for Alice.
Whether Carl himself knew it or not, Fu Jiahe must have known it.
After all, they had already identified each other before, and Fu Jiahe's reaction seemed a little unexpectedly sincere to Su Su, "You won't go to Jenny again, will you?" ”
"You're not going to even take care of the Bell family, are you?" Su Su held the wine glass, smiling rather than smiling.
"It's really weird between you." Fu Jiahe's tone seemed to be very casual, "I have learned about your situation, and you never cared about his mission...... Don't say last time, that's just you by the way. But if you don't go to Jenny, how do I find out she's the illegitimate daughter of the Bell family? ”
Su Su chuckled, to outsiders, they seemed to be talking about something interesting, "His task can't be completed, this should be a happy thing for you, right?" ”
"But he always does it." Fu Jiahe clinked glasses with her, "And I'm missing another chip." ”
"In addition to sabotage, you also want to do something? Your mission? ”
Fu Jiahe looked at Su Su's expression seriously for a while, "Look, I'll just say that you are very strange between you." He doesn't seem to tell you anything. ”
Su Su chuckled, "There's no need for that, is it?" ”
"You really don't seem to need to be taught...... And he is indeed a person who takes everything to heart, and he knows and will not say it. Fu Jiahe's smile suddenly expanded, it was an absolutely sincere, gloating performance, "Do you know, how unbelievable I was after I heard that someone had failed him in one mission after another? ”
"I can probably see how happy you are."
Fu Jiahe gave her a knowing look, "Anyone will be like this, believe me." ”
Su Su took a sip of wine, "Maybe, I really don't know much about the affairs of your department." She shook her glass, "I'll see you later." ”
"It's heartless." Fu Jiahe's tone was contrived, watching Su Su walk towards another girl.
He sneered, "I'm really going to find someone to open the knife." ”
This is not nonsense.
Wherever Su Su goes, where is the focus. She looks like she's socializing with someone of the same sex, but in reality, it only leads to comparisons.
Two equally young girls, is the first beauty really that beautiful?
This is the thought of almost everyone, where is her beauty?
Figure, posture, temperament, the gorgeous clothes they wear, accessories, and most importantly, their faces.
Su Su knew very well that in such a comparison, she would definitely not lose.
Some people may wear more gorgeous clothes and more expensive jewelry, but those are just decorations, Alice's beauty and her unique temperament will always be the key to her occupying the first beauty.
When he appeared at the ball, everyone seemed to be holding their breath, wondering if he would break Su Su's insistence - after all, before Carl, Veris's first beauty had only danced with Cecil's Chesa.
And the relationship between Su Su and Shi Yuan is obviously one of the things discussed by various families in these days.
"Are you here to make me refuse?" Su Su smiled at his acquaintance and touched the wine glass.
"Although it seems silly." Shi Yuan's handsome face had a cold smile that was not the same as before, but a somewhat sincere, but still reserved and restrained smile, "I always have to do something for Mingzhu." ”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand to Su Su.
I really don't want to say no......
