"Young Miss can you please stop staring at yourself so shamelessly in the mirror?"

We all know you're incredibly beautiful." The one speaking was a young girl in an emerald green cheongsam.

Her name was Tao Hua a name she absolutely hated to death. The person who gave her this name was the one standing in front of her, the one and only ignorant and incompetent eldest daughter of the Xiao House.

It was because of this that she had to constantly wear green, making her detest the name all the more. The more she looked at the Young Miss in front of her the more annoyed she became. Inevitably it showed in her voice.

Xiao Wan heard the familiar voice and the thick layer of scorn underneath it. She who had been obsessed with the mirror couldn't keep the tears from forming in her eyes and her body from trembling slightly.

Another girl dressed in a goose-yellow cheongsam frowned becoming anxious when she saw Xiao Wan remain oddly silent with her body turned away. Why wasn't Xiao Wan yelling at Tao Hua? Did the sun suddenly rise in the West? A day didn't go by where the two weren't at each other's throats. Tao Hua was so impudent just then with her tone and remark, it was a great opportunity for Xiao Wan to yell at her.

Three years ago Xiao Yurong had sent the two girls to protect and care for Xiao Wan. One person was skilled in the healing arts while the other was skilled in martial arts. However Xiao Wan only saw them as personal servants who were there to monitor her. She lashed out at them by changing their names, one was changed to the vulgar Tao Hua and the other was changed to the slightly tacky Liu Shui. She had smiled and said that Tao Hua and Liu Shui were like a poetic metaphor of the romantic love between men and women. Having them by her side would surely bring her luck in love and attract many beautiful men to her.

Xiao Wan didn't know anything about poetry, in fact she was just an unread person who only knew how to eat, drink and be merry, spending most of her time dallying with beautiful men. She had wretched luck in love though. So it was shocking to everyone when she managed to reel in Ji Shumo with her pretty mouth and empty flattery. It was like tossing a priceless pearl in front of a pig. Make no mistake their Young Miss was the pig...

Indeed tonight the beautiful pearl that was Young Master Ji would be ruined by the overly spoiled and hedonistic Xiao Wan. The loss of Young Master Ji in the pool of eligible bachelors would surely break the hearts of many young girls.

Speaking of girls... the girl in yellow stepped forward a few steps and finally saw Xiao Wan's face reflected in the mirror. She sucked in a deep breath and knelt down by her side when she saw the mess of tears and makeup streaks that marred Xiao Wan's pretty complexion.

"Young Miss, Tao Hua is just being thoughtless. You know she likes to fuss over everything. Don't mind her." The girl kneeling on the ground didn't have the same viper tongue as Tao Hua. Instead she was a thoughtful girl with a calm and collected personality that was reflective of her name: Liu Shui. At a glance she knew something wasn't right with Xiao Wan.

Liu Shui gently tried to to coax Xiao Wan, but instead of making the other feel better it only made Xiao Wan's cries become louder and even more unrestrained. Xiao Wan repeatedly rubbed her face with her hands wiping the hot tears and snot into her makeup and smearing everything all over looking like a tearstained little kitty.

This scene really scared Tao Hua and Liu Shui as they had never seen Xiao Wan cry so bitterly before. Tao Hua bit her lip in consternation. Why was the Young Miss making such a scene? They would definitely be chastised then ruthlessly punished for this!

Liu Shui glared at Tao Hua. This is all your fault!

Tao Hua paled and could only look down at the floor while biting her lip. She spread her hands out in surrender. I'm confused too! The Young Miss doesn't normally get this emotional when provoked.
