As apparent from the title itself, JR finds herself amid all the pompous young ladies who are trying various tactics just to bully her. But let's see if they really have that capability.
Dive into this chapter which consists of a mixed dose of jealousy, hatred, scheming, with a pinch of inferiority complex. Enjoy :)

In unison, the expressions on both Xia Yan and Jiang Su Su's faces changed minutely. The ladies had already started quietly chatting amongst one another.
"What uncouth girl from the mountain wilderness? Her bearing is akin to someone who has been brought up in the palace."
"Exactly, she's comparable to the Second Jiang Miss, she is nowhere as bad as they say."
"Her appearance is good, and she is even more vibrant than the Second Miss."
For the first time, everyone's attention was not on Jiang Su Su. Jiang Ruan was still fully focused on walking onwards, with no discernible change in her expression. She had a slight smile on her face, as if it were not the first time she had visited the Shen fu. Her calm and collected air caused those who had originally wanted to watch the potential fireworks to take notice of her and give her due respect. The face of the round-faced lady had turned black. In contrast, the lady with the high cheekbones was continually nodding.
Shen Ming Zhen, who was accompanying them, was thoroughly incensed, and glared fiercely at Jiang Ruan. She walked over and grabbed Jiang Su Su's hand. And without giving Jiang Ruan a second glance, she walked over to the women's seating area.

Xia Yan kept up a slight smile, as if she had not noticed anything, and laughingly chatted with Shen furen as they seated themselves. Although Jiang Li was naturally arrogant, she had several friends among the young ladies present. In order to deliberately isolate Jiang Ruan, she dragged Jiang Dan off with her, even though she hardly ever gave her the time of day under normal circumstances. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Jiang Ruan was left standing by herself at the side of the hall, and did not know where she should sit.
