Nirvana Pavilion was a jewelry store in Tianjing City.
The jewelry in the store had unique and beautiful designs, and their prices were exorbitant. As soon as they were introduced, they gained the admiration of noble women in the city.
That day marked the launch of a new collection at Nirvana Pavilion. Due to a month-long advertising campaign, many people were aware of it, resulting in a large crowd gathering.
When Gu Jinyue arrived, she saw the store filled with elegant ladies.
“Jinyue!”
As she stepped down from the carriage, she heard someone calling her.

“Jinyue, I heard that your uncle has advanced to the Saint Stage. Is it true?”
Upon hearing these words, a moment of silence fell. The people in the store, both overtly and covertly, shifted their attention to Gu Jinyue.
Observing this, Gu Jinyue felt immensely proud and raised her chin confidently, saying, “That’s right.”
“Wow! The head of the Gu family is so amazing! Congratulations, Jinyue! Your Gu family now firmly holds the top position among the aristocratic families in Tianjing City. No one can challenge your status anymore!” Xiao Wen Fei squeezed through the crowd and approached Gu Jinyue, lavishing her with flattery.
Although the Xiao family was considered a prominent family in Tianjing City, they were not on par with the four major families.
Gu Jinyue reveled in the adulation she received from Xiao Wen Fei.
Witnessing this, Xiao Wen Fei continued with more pleasing words.
Others present displayed expressions of envy upon hearing Gu Jinyue’s confirmation.
As the saying goes, when one prospers, all prosper. Although Gu Jinyue was not from the main branch of the family, the rising power and status of the Gu family meant that she, as a member of the Gu family, would undoubtedly benefit from it.
Just yesterday, she had heard that she was rejected by the Lushi Auction House, but today the tables had turned for the Gu family. Fortunately, she hadn’t overheard their previous mockery of her.
Many of those present, with their keen intellects, gathered around Gu Jin Yue to congratulate her.
The excessive praise left Gu Jinyue feeling elated, almost causing her to forget the purpose of her visit.
It was not until she caught a glimpse, out of the corner of her eye, of a girl in a red dress entering through the door.
Tang Shijun!
The young lady of the Tang family, one of the four great families, had never been on good terms with Gu Jinyue since she was young!
Tang Shijun walked straight to the shopkeeper as if she didn’t see Gu Jinyue.
A malicious look flashed across Gu Jinyue’s eyes as she walked towards her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone was a noble lady in the capital and knew the grudge between the two. Seeing this stance, they all made way for her.
The shopkeeper brought out a set of exquisite hair accessories and placed them in front of Tang Shijun.
Just as Tang Shijun was about to reach out her hand, a delicate hand swiftly intervened and picked up a Chengyang Five Phoenix Pearl Hairpin from the box. “This hairpin looks nice. Shopkeeper, how much is it?”
A maid standing next to Tang Shijun chimed in, “It was my young lady who saw it first.”
“Hmph, does your young lady deserve to wear it?” Gu Jinyue sneered, casting a disdainful glance at Tang Shijun. “Such luxurious pearl hairpins are only meant for princesses and the girls of our Gu family.”
“You…” Tang Shijun raised her hand to stop her maidservant from speaking, then leaned on her chin and scrutinized Gu Jin Yue for a while. Suddenly, she curiously asked, “Gu Jinyue, I heard that you were publicly expelled by Young Master Lu yesterday. Is it true?”
She brought up an unpleasant topic.
The scene fell silent.
Gu Jinyue frowned. “Tang Shijun, if you can’t speak like a civilized person, then shut up!”
Tang Shijun smiled faintly. “I’m just curious. You claim that your Gu family is so powerful, yet you were expelled by the Lushi Auction House. I heard they put up a sign outside their door that says ‘Dogs and Gu Jinyue are not allowed inside’, so I thought you wouldn’t have the dignity to come out today!”
Gu Jin Yue’s expression twisted.. “What nonsense are you spouting?”
