The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 526

"Is this woman poisonous?"

Upon hearing Mina's words, Song Xuechun immediately frowned.

"Don't be so impatient."

Rong Dai softly reminded her that with Song Xuechun's personality, there would be no problem in Magnolia Fragrance.

But this was not Magnolia Fragrance, and if Song Xuechun couldn't control her emotions like this, she would easily get herself into trouble.

Song Xuechun nodded and stood behind her to watch Mina lead a few upper-class French noblewomen over.

Mina walked confidently to the two of them, bowed to take a ceramic vessel in her hand, and turned to introduce it to the noblewomen around her.

Rong Dai watched calmly as Mina operated. She never took the initiative to provoke anyone.

She had already explained what happened this morning. If Mina still refused to let it go, then she could not be blamed.

"Mrs. Huo, am I right?"

Mina put the vessel down, turned to look at her, and deliberately asked.

Rong Dai glanced lightly at the ceramic vessel, her eyes glancing over these noblewomen around Mina.

They were dressed elegantly and knowledgeably, yet still exuded an air of arrogance.

She smiled lightly and shook her head, "This is not my specialty."

It wasn't that she didn't understand these things. Her family's cultivation of her in her previous life had expended a lot of effort and was not without use.

It was just that she disdained to quibble over such petty things with a petty woman, which would lower her status.

Mina's smile grew even brighter as she spoke to those noblewomen in a mocking tone, with no attempt to avoid discussing Rong Dai's presence between them.

Song Xuechun could not understand, but she could see that whatever Mina was saying was not pleasant.

"Mrs. Huo, I have heard that the Chinese are learned and talented. It turns out to be nothing more than this!"

"Here in our circles, even as women, we still need to understand a little of this knowledge, otherwise we will seem too ignorant."

"I did not expect the wife of a prestigious Chinese family to be like this. It's really a bit disappointing."

The swelling on Mina's cheeks had gone down, and with heavy makeup on, there was no sign of injury to her face.

She mocked Rong Dai mercilessly.

The noblewomen whispered to each other, looking at Rong Dai and Song Xuechun with arrogant and contemptuous eyes.

Rong Dai's eyes darkened as she stared back at Mina and asked, "Do you really want me to say it?"

Mina shrugged with an "if you dare" look.

"If Mrs. Huo is willing to make a fool of herself, I'd be happy to cheer her on."

Rong Dai pressed her lips together, sweeping Mina and the noblewomen with a sharp, dignified yet disdainful gaze. Then she turned her head and ordered Song Xuechun: "Go and ask Mr. Huo Ersi to come over and say there is a problem with the artifacts here."

Song Xuechun's eyes immediately lit up and she briskly ran off with an acknowledgment!

But Rong Dai's words enraged Mina!

"What do you mean there is a problem with the artifacts here? Mrs. Huo, please don't talk nonsense!"

She was able to get into Huo Ersi's bed because of her identity as an expert appraiser of artifacts.

It was only after these things had gone through her hands that they could be placed in the exhibition hall. If this made Huo Ersi question her abilities, then her beautiful dream would be shattered!

"Nonsense?"

Rong Dai chuckled lightly with a raised brow, looking at Mina and those noblewomen with solemn and disdainful eyes. "Only those who lack confidence in their own abilities and feel uneasy about what they have done would think that others are talking nonsense."

"Since Miss Mina, you just said I was Chinese, I should be an expert on determining the authenticity of these artifacts from China."

"This is not entirely false, it's just that earlier I was too lazy to quibble with you."

"But you kept pushing aggressively for me to humiliate myself, so why shouldn't I oblige you?"
