Free Web NovelChapter 1977: Chapter 478: Utter Defeat, Sincerely Convinced (Part 3)
"I’ve heard Weiwei mention you." The young woman spoke with a smile, her voice as clear and ethereal as jade beads hitting a plate, very pleasant to hear.
Anna raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Weiwei said you’ve helped her a lot, and she is very grateful to you. Just as I imagined, you are a bold and generous woman."
"Thank you for the compliment, Princess. Miss Weiwei is very lovable, and I can’t stand seeing her bullied."
Anna couldn’t gauge the Princess’s temperament from her words alone. She appeared gentle and mild, yet her aura subtly conveyed a commanding presence that was unassailable.
In that instant, Anna was sure of it, this woman would not be easy to deal with.
At this moment, Gan Wei’er came out of the room, wearing a mask, only her eyes visible. She wasn’t even wearing her favorite dress, wrapped up tightly from head to toe.
Seeing Yun Ya sitting in the living room, seemingly having a pleasant conversation with Anna, she instinctively furrowed her brows.
Yun Ya looked at Gan Wei’er, her calm voice tinged with a hint of concern: "Feeling better now?"
She had been in the hospital for a day and a night, without a single greeting. Now she was showing concern. Who was she pretending for? She thought sarcastically, but on the surface, she smiled and said: "Much better now, but the doctor advised me to avoid the wind."
Yun Ya said helplessly, "How did you catch such an illness out of the blue? You’ve suffered a lot, and you look much thinner now."
Gan Wei’er forced a smile.
At this moment, Hongxin respectfully approached and said, "Princess, dinner is ready."
Yun Ya said with a smile, "Miss Anna, please."
A group of them walked towards the dining room, where a table full of Chinese dishes was set, exquisite in both look and aroma, stimulating the appetite.
Yun Ya took her seat at the main position and said with a smile, "Miss Anna came so suddenly, the kitchen didn’t have time to prepare much. Miss Anna, please make do for now. I will personally host a banquet for you another day."
"This is already very good. Actually, I really love Chinese food."
Anna and Gan Wei’er sat down, one on each side of Yun Ya, it must be said, the food was better than any Chinese dish she had ever had. Looking at the young woman seated to her right, every movement exuded a soothing elegance. As they say, beauty is a feast for the eyes, and dining with such a view indeed whets the appetite. Yet Anna felt stifled.
No matter how delicious the dish, it lost its flavor in her mouth.
It only made her seem rough and unsophisticated, especially compared to Gan Wei’er across the table, it was like night and day.
After dinner, they moved back to the living room, where the young woman personally brewed tea, her movements fluid and graceful, her picturesque face even more serene in the swirling tea mist.
She poured a cup of tea in front of Anna, her gentle voice as enchanting as the aroma of the tea.
"Miss Anna, how does it taste?"
Anna lifted the cup, gently sniffed it, took a sip, and smiled, "Princess, your tea skills are excellent."
Such beauty and talent, calm and composed, she was like both a poem and a painting. What does Xi Lin have to compare with her?
Gan Wei’er took a sip and immediately spat it out. "So bitter."
Nonsense, why subject oneself to bitterness, Gan Wei’er certainly couldn’t enjoy it.
No words could be exchanged with someone who lacks taste, but Anna admired this Princess. If not for their opposing positions, she would have been quite happy to be friends with someone like her.
Unfortunately, they were destined to be adversaries.
"I heard that the Princess and Young Master Lorde are about to get engaged?" Anna asked as if unintentionally.
Who else could she have heard it from, it must be Gan Wei’er.
Yun Ya’s tea-brewing motion did not pause for a moment, supremely graceful, and she replied with a smile, "I intended to keep it low-key, but it seems you already know."
Gan Wei’er shrank her neck.
"You’re about to marry the dream man of all young girls in Country Q, how could the Princess keep it low-key?"
Yun Ya shook her head with a smile, "It’s just an engagement, who knows what the future holds."
Anna gave her a deep look, her eyebrow slightly raised.
The young woman’s eyebrows were lowered, her demeanor calm and composed, showing neither pride nor joy, as if she were merely commenting on the weather.
"I must congratulate the Princess in advance, and when the time comes, I must come to have a drink for the wedding."
The news hasn’t been announced yet, few people know. Once Sangque releases the announcement, who knows what kind of storm it will stir across the world. This is precisely what Ji Lanyi is happy to see.
Yun Ya smiled and did not respond.
"It’s getting late, I should leave now. Meeting the Princess today was my honor, and if I have the chance in the future, I will certainly come to visit again."
Yun Ya smiled and said, "I would definitely welcome you."
