Helian Jiao Er could clearly hear the people around her gasping for air.

She then turned her head toward the lady who was walking over.

How could it be her?

It was the ‘village girl’ from firecracker street!

The lady was wearing a wine red evening gown while walking under the radiance of the sunset. She was holding an umbrella embedded with a black feather with her fair-skinned fingers. She only exposed her face to the public. With a pair of indolent eyes, fair skin, and her long curly hair cascaded down her back at will, it exuded a conception of pureness almost to the extent of perfection.

The people around Helian Jiao Er were stunned. “Who is she?”

“How do I know?” Helian Jiao Er bit her lips while grabbing her fist tightly. She did not expect that this woman would be qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the appearance evaluation!

One of them who was in the crowd took a glance at Helian Jiao Er and said, “Jiao Er, your tone is a little bit unusual.”

“I’m sorry.” Helian Wei Wei rubbed her head and said, “Maybe it’s because I am too tired. I have not been feeling well these few weeks.”

That individual nodded but his eyes were on that lady all the while even after she left. “Gorgeous! She looks so beautiful! With her fair skin and long legs, she looks exactly like an angel!”

“Haha. Yes, she is.” Helian Jiao Er spoke untruthfully. She had no idea whether it was her illusion or not because that person’s facial features were familiar to her. It felt like they had been staying together for a long time in the past.

Forget about it. This was not the main issue.

The key was to get rid of this ‘village girl’ who came from firecracker street.

Just as Helian Jiao Er was brainstorming, there came the sound of people making noise. “The results of the appearance evaluation are released! Go and have a look at your ranking!”

All the ladies were extremely excited even though they already knew about their rankings.

One of them raised her voice and said, “With Jiao Er here competing with us, we would never be able to get the first place!”

“Oh, sister! Don’t try to make fun of me…” Helian Jiao Er blushed as she felt shy. “Yun Biluo is competing too. She attended the appearance evaluation in the morning, so I have no idea what is her number.”

“Alright, alright. I shall stop messing around with you but honestly, you and Yun Biluo are the two most beautiful ladies in the entire Capital. Either Yun Biluo or you would definitely appear to be in the first place.” The lady pulled Helian Jiao Er’s hand and walked to check the results upon finis.h.i.+ng her words.

Helian Jiao Er gave out a sweet smile on her face as she was enjoying the moment. She had temporarily forgotten about the ‘village lady’ she met just now.

However, when she saw her ranking on the published list, her smile turned stiff.

Even the lady who dragged her there felt shocked as she could not believe her eyes. She immediately scanned through the number she was holding in her hand to match with the published name list on the wall.

“What? How is this possible?”

“Jiao Er is in third place?”

“That’s weird. Who is the one in the second place?”

The crowd habitually ignored the first place in the list because they all had it in their mind than Yun Biluo would be the one. Therefore, they were searching for the number that belonged to the contestant who ranked second in panic.

“Number 5? Who is Number 5?”

There was no answer.

Each and every one of the ladies was confused. They were having doubts about this ‘second place’ who came out all of a sudden.

Some of them whispered and asked, “Why don’t you guys go and ask who holds the Number 11 that ranked the first?”
