Li Wuming took them to the most luxurious hotel in the city. The ball tomorrow night will be held in the hotel's banquet hall. Most of the guests will be staying at the hotel. Ye Qingqing had booked a room in advance and shared a room with Ruan Yingzi.

"I'm in the next room. You can call me if you need anything." Li Wuming was a little afraid of Ruan Yingzi and didn't dare to say much. He kept his head down, afraid that this tigress would kick him.

"Why are you always looking down when you talk? Do you think I'm going to eat you? Look up!"

Ruan Yingzi roared angrily. She spoke to Ye Qingqing very naturally and chatted and laughed. But when she spoke to Ye Qingqing, she would lower her head and dodge away. Was she a man-eating tigress?

Li Wuming shook himself violently, not daring to disobey. He slowly raised his head, looking at Ruan Yingzi with a bitter face and a pitiful expression. This made Miss Ruan even angrier, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

Ye Qingqing stopped her and smiled at the poor soul, "Go back to your room first, I'll contact you if I need anything."

"Why……"

Li Wuming felt as if he had been granted a pardon and fled as if his life depended on it. As he closed the door, you could still hear his exaggerated panting. Ruan Yingzi was even angrier and wanted to chase after him to beat him up, but Ye Qingqing grabbed her, amused.

"Don't pull me back! I'm going to teach this bastard a lesson today! What have I done that deserves everyone's wrath? Look at his shitty face, it's infuriating!" Ruan Yingzi was so angry that her hair was practically on fire.

It was just a few kicks when we first met, why are you holding a grudge until now?

What a coward!

"You almost broke someone's bones with those kicks, and you still have the nerve to say that!" Ye Qingqing rolled her eyes in annoyance.

This girl is a black belt in Taekwondo; she can blow someone's head off with a single kick. It's no wonder Li Wuming has psychological trauma.

Ruan Yingzi smiled awkwardly and said indignantly, "It's not broken yet, what is he afraid of? I'm not unreasonable. He was the one who was sneaking around, so I kicked him."

"Alright, Li Wuming isn't your boyfriend, why are you getting so worked up? You only see him a few times a year anyway, let him be if he wants to be humble!"

Ye Qingqing felt that Miss Ruan's outburst was too inexplicable. She went to the wardrobe and took out a dress, which Miao Tianxiang had commissioned a world-class designer to design for her, and it was all handmade.

The dress was a noble and elegant light purple, studded with sparkling diamonds. This one dress alone was worth a fortune, enough for an ordinary family to live on for decades.

Ye Qingqing hadn't wanted to make it so elaborate, but Miao Tianxiang disagreed, saying that not dressing well wouldn't diminish her status. When Gong Yi found out, he generously offered to cover the cost of the dress, with only two conditions—

That's extravagant and flashy enough.

In short, Ye Qingqing's dress must be the most expensive and eye-catching at the entire ball, without exception, the only one of its kind.

This coincided with Miao Tianxiang's idea, so one contributed money and the other contributed effort, and the most expensive dress to date was finally unveiled in all its glory.

The designer was the most high-profile Mrs. Warren. If it weren't for the skin-whitening cream that Miao Tianxiang gave her, Mrs. Warren, who is more arrogant than the president, would never have stepped out of retirement to design a dress for an unknown little girl.

The dress is made of the softest and smoothest silk in China, but it is not made from silk spun by domesticated silkworms. Instead, it is made from silk spun by a mysterious wild silkworm from the deep mountains. Its production is extremely rare, and in ancient times only the emperor was entitled to enjoy it.

Even now, only the super-rich can afford this kind of wild silk. This dress has a large skirt and a lot of fabric. You can imagine how much silk it must have used and how much money it must have cost.
