Mi Rong teasingly spoke, "Then why not consider not going to the event?" However, deep inside she knew that she did not really want Xia Yun to join. If it could be possible, not having Xia Yun get involved with the mess within the Feng family would be best.

"Uh uh, that won't happen. I want to see you in that dress." Xia Yun without hesitating rejected Mi Rong's idea.

Sigh.

"What event?" Doctor Li who had been out of the picture for a moment asked what was still unclear to him.

Xia Yun cheerfully replied, "It's the Feng family's dinner party. Grandma Feng had invited us to join; maybe you could join as well? Wouldn't that be nice?" When that idea of inviting doctor Li to join them came to her mind, Xia Yun turned to look at Mi Rong with anticipating eyes.

Mi Rong unexcitedly thought to herself, here we go again.

"Please? You wouldn't want doctor Li to be alone would you?" While Xia Yun was asking Mi Rong with expectation, Mi Rong turned her gaze towards doctor Li.

Doctor Li seemed to have understood her gaze and smiled. "I'd love to know what kind of party it is, can I also join?"

Mi Rong couldn't believe her ears. She had already signaled him with her eyes not join, but he did the complete opposite. This boy, if it weren't for him being so nice to her all these years then she would like to kick his butt one time. However, thinking of his warm face made her quickly dissipate all of those thoughts.

"See! Doctor Li also wants to join. Now, you just need to ask grandma Feng."

Mi Rong looked between Xia Yun and doctor Li, back and forth. Xia Yun was not going to let it go and neither was doctor Li. She looked at him and he casually lifted up his shoulders slightly and turned his focus to his tea while avoiding Mi Rong's pleading gaze.

It was really not her day, this auntie cannot handle these two.



5 pm

Doctor Li had long gone back to change his clothes. Grandma Feng had already gifted both Mi Rong and Xia Yun a dress for the event.

At first, Mi Rong was not going to get dress until it was nearly five as had planned to just put her dress on and tie her hair up. However, it was Xia Yun who had insisted them to go to the nearby salon to get their makeup and hair done.

Mi Rong's laid-back personality could not compare to Xia Yun's nagging, so she had to compromise.

Luckily they found a salon in their village and ended up at a very old traditional salon. The hairdresser had already had wrinkles on her face and her hands. Upon arriving, Xia Yun was reluctant to go in, but it was Mi Rong who had urge Xia Yun to get in or else they would just go back home.

Mi Rong had intentionally wanted them to end up looking bad and then return home so that they could redo everything. They still had time anyway.

However, both of them ended up looking exceedingly beautiful. They both had natural makeup, but the makeup did not cover their face but rather enhance it. Xia Yun had a much peachier look with went along with her dark long orange dress. The dress on Xia Yun gave out an autumn vibe and suited her natural yellow tinted skin. It made her figure more noticeable and her skirt was in layers made with light materials and some gold flakes making her every move flutter with gold specks. Some of her shoulders were exposed and the rest of her arms were covered with the long sleeves from her dress. The sleeves itself had traditional Chinese laced patterns on and made her dress more exotic from any other.

Then, on the other hand, there was Mi Rong who was dressed up in long navy blue velvet dress. The dress had a v line and exposed her fair neck. Her sleeves were also long and her dress was a long A-line dress highlighting her model-like figures. Across her skirt, vintage Chinese floral patterns were neatly sewed on. The threads were slightly shining and upon looking closer, the threads were mixed with gold threats making her luxury. Looking at Mi Rong, if nobody knew her background then people would easily mistake her as a modern princess.

While Xia Yun's hair was tied into a low bun with gold butterfly pin tucked on her bun, Mi Rong's hair had a simple half knot and finished with a silver pin with cherry blossoms inside the knot.

They both looked like they had come out from fairy tales and not from this world.

When the old lady had finished both of their looks, she satisfyingly smiled. Then she went back to sit on her old sofa and not long she drifted off. Mi Rong and Xia Yun both looked at each other's face and giggled. Poor grandma had to handle both of them.

When they walked out from the salon, it was already getting dark. Before they could go any further, a black SUV car parked in front of them. The windows were so black that no one could see from the outside.

One of the passengers' windows was rolled down. Grandma Feng's bright face showed from the window. "Well, it looks like you too are finally fully dressed up."

Both of them were caught by surprise because they did not think that they would be seeing grandma Feng anytime soon not until the party. "Oh, what are you two waiting for, hop on."

After hearing grandma Feng's inviting them to board the car, both of them happily got on it. All three of them were all headed to one of the biggest party ever held in China. Since it was the entire Feng family that was holding the event, everything was possible.
