It's normal to be overconfident and self-conceited with such extraordinary beauty.

如此美貌，如何不自傲？

He shook his head and smiled. No matter how beautiful the girl is, it is just mediocrity. It's not worthy of his attention.

他摇了摇头笑了，人再美，也不过是庸脂俗粉的花瓶而已，上不得台面，也不足以让他注意。他不屑之。

He thought she was a wealthy, self-conceited lady from a well-off family who knew she was a white lotus in a brothel, a proud plum growing in the cold wind.

他以为她是哪家养在深闺的以自己容貌为荣的骄傲精贵大小姐。谁知道她却是那狐媚之地的一朵白莲花，是寒风刺骨中的一朵傲梅。

She was the last person who could be proud, and she should be like someone who yields to power and be a despicable girl!

她是那种最不应该有傲气的人，她就应该阿谀奉承成为一个让人瞧不起的女子。

Despite being beautiful, she was born proud and spent many years in a brothel.

在那种风尘之地摸爬打滚了这么多年，生活在那样的条件，又长成她这样，可是她偏偏就是天生傲骨。

"You indeed have a detached attitude. However, you are young but full of literary talent. Your talent is world-renowned. We are nowhere near as good as you in writing."

“不愧是我们玉仙人不惹尘埃啊，也难怪你年纪轻轻却是满腹文采，才华横溢 、扬名天下，让我等自愧不如啊。”

"Pack up a few dresses for yourself and return to the Imperial Academy as soon as possible. The metropolitan exam is drawing near, and our time can't be wasted." he wanted to leave as soon as possible because he didn't want to waste her time on these meaningless topics.

“时间也不早了，我们回家收拾几件换洗的衣服早些回国子监温书吧，春闱快到了，我们的时间不能耽误。”他不想再和他们纠结这些没有意义的话题，所以想尽快离去。

He is still not very enthusiastic about being an official, but as a son, he should consider his parents' feelings and expectations. They all want him to succeed.

对于当官出仕其实他现在也仍然不是那么热衷，但是身为人子，有些事也要考虑到父母的心情和期盼，他们都望子成龙。

"Yes, yes, yes, Second Young Master, You're a child prodigy who could remember every word at eight and be well versed in literature and military affairs at seventeen. Your talent is world-renowned.

Yet you still work so hard. How could someone like us live in the future? However, brother, Your hard work will make you succeed."

“是，是，是，二公子，你这小子可是神童，八岁就过目不忘，十七岁文武双全才华横溢名扬天下，你还这么努力你到底要不要其他人活了呀？但是兄弟，你如此苦读定会高中一举夺魁。”

"Who could win you in the world? You will be the No. 1 Scholar and ride a tall and strong horse. With your good appearance, many girls will come to see you by then. Of course, you didn't lack beauty." Another lively young master seized on the chance and made fun of him.

“这天底下还有谁能是你的对手？你若下场必定是新科状元，到时候你骑着高头大马，你长成这样，肯定好多女孩子来看你。”另一个活跃的公子逮住这个话题自然不肯放过开起了他的玩笑。

What's the use of having exceptional beauty?

容貌绝色有什么用？

A pretty face is just some mediocrity.

自古美人多平庸

He never thought that his love story would begin just like that.

他做梦都想不到自己的爱情故事就是这样开始的。

……

He returned home, simply packed up the things he needed, then went to the Imperial College with his errand boy. He met his father, the prime minister before he went out the main gate.

玉雨均回到家中简单地收拾了一番，就带着一书童正待离开前往国子监，此时相爷刚好回来与玉雨均碰面了。

“Father.” He bowed to his father.

“父亲”玉雨均朝着相爷施礼道。

“My son.” The prime minister walked towards his son from a distance. As a father, he seldom saw

his second son.

“雨均”相爷远远看到自己不常见的第二子，也向他走来。
