"Are you all not locals?"
Except for Mia Ginger, the other three shook their heads in unison.
"Come, come, let me gossip a bit for you. It’s said that Cloud Capital has six top-notch old elite families, and the Myres Family is one of them, considered the top family. The head of the family has N wives! There are also a dozen or twenty kids, a lot anyway."
"A dozen or twenty?" Tong Tong widened her eyes in shock.
"Haha, I’m not entirely sure, just gossiping, but it’s said to be like that. Didn’t you say Windsor Myres is called the fifth miss? Who else has that many kids in their family?"
"But this," Wren King said, puzzled, "N wives? No one cares?"
"The legitimate wife is just one, little mistresses and such are plenty, they haven’t married, so they can live wherever they want."
"As they say, ’one willing to receive and one willing to give.’" Wren King looked at her.
Blair Chester smiled faintly and turned to continue packing her things.
Wren King pursed her lips and gave her a sideways glance, then turned and met Mia Ginger’s gaze, feeling a bit awkward.
She had delicate features, close to being the class beauty level, originally quite confident, but after entering the dormitory, she realized there are always others out there.
Blair Chester was tall and had good poise, making her seem like an accessory by contrast.
She instinctively felt jealous.
Yet when she faced Mia Ginger again, more complex feelings arose.
In her view, Mia Ginger’s advantages seemed even more apparent than Blair Chester’s, and she was more pleasant to look at.
Blair Chester wore wedge shoes standing at 175cm, with hair cascading to her waist, indeed very eye-catching, but belonged to the kind of beauty that’s only admired from afar, likely not popular with other girls, and perhaps not with boys either.
Mia Ginger was different.
She wore flat shoes, standing around 165cm.
A small, delicate face, just slightly bigger than a palm, with arched eyebrows and eyes that weren’t big but were dark and bright, easily endearing.
Especially because she was fair-skinned.
As the saying goes, "a fair complexion can cover a thousand flaws."
Who wouldn’t like such a fair, clean, and delicate beauty?
Even she, as a girl, found it hard to be jealous.
When Mia Ginger restrained her sharpness, she appeared truly pure, gentle, kind, and harmless, making it impossible to dislike her.
Wren King was momentarily distracted.
The dorm door creaked open, and she was startled awake, instinctively turning her head.
The girl who entered wore an off-the-shoulder dress, form-fitting with leopard print, sexy and alluring, dazzlingly glamorous, with makeup and slightly parted red lips, seemingly born to seduce, strikingly opposite to Mia Ginger.
If Blair Chester was like a goddess, meant to be kept aloft and revered.
Mia Ginger would be like a first love, cherished tenderly by every young boy.
Windsor Myres was the lover.
Her curvy figure nearly made other women feel ashamed, her flamboyant and seductive aura instantly caught men’s admiring gaze, her features were provocative and alluring, with slanted eye corners and plump red lips, all constantly tempting.
The impact she caused was tremendous, leaving the entire dormitory silent.
Windsor Myres seemed oblivious to the effect she caused, or rather, she’d grown used to the amazed, chasing eyes of others.
