Chapter 99 Coming-of-Age Ceremony



After seeing Li Tian and Li Meng off and completing the final rehearsal, Bai Yueyue was already sitting in the dressing room waiting.

"Mei'er, I'm hungry~" Bai Yueyue looked at Hu Mei'er pitifully, while Zhang Hongxia and the others went about their own business in a tacit manner, keeping themselves from seeing the scene.

"Miss, please hang in there, you're going on stage soon," Hu Meier coaxed her. Wearing a classical dance costume, Bai Yueyue found it difficult to even eat with her hands.

"Don't worry, you know me, I definitely won't ruin your makeup."

“Absolutely not!” Hu Meier said decisively.

"Miss, Miss, it's time for you to go on stage." Lin Xinyi's voice came from the doorway.

Everyone conducted one last check on Bai Yueyue, and only released her after confirming that there were no problems.

Walking slowly, Bai Yueyue knew there were already many people around, and she couldn't let others see that she was in a hurry.

Standing at the main entrance, amidst the chorus of musicians, Bai Yueyue used her teleportation ability to appear on the platform.

The audience included almost all the nobles of Asia City, as well as nobles from other higher-level cities. Bai Yueyue also knew from previous information that many nobles from the capital city had also attended. As for the nobles from lower- and middle-level cities, they were not qualified to participate.

That's why everyone present was curious about Bai Yueyue's abilities, and witnessing it firsthand made them start to think about how to deal with her.

The music changed as Bai Yueyue performed her ancient dance. Bai Yueyue couldn't help but admire them, thinking, "They're truly noble; their manners are impeccable. They're all so focused, watching intently."

Well, the ancient dance wasn't choreographed by Bai Yueyue herself; it was created by Li Jieyue. She was still revising the movements right before it started, naturally aiming to push Bai Yueyue's limits.

The nobles in the audience had all studied ancient dance, and even those whose major was not dance could see how superb Bai Yueyue's skills were.

Moreover, eighteen years old is the peak of her life. Bai Yueyue's current state is such that she can learn any move Li Jieyue makes at a glance.

The nobles who are not focused on this area know that they can't compare to Bai Yueyue at any stage, and may even be crushed by her. But since they are not focused on this area, maybe their skills in other areas surpass Bai Yueyue's?

After all, she was just a noblewoman from a higher-level city, that's how they comforted themselves.

The nobles, who focused on learning ancient dance and never stopped learning, doubted their eyes. Eighteen years old is indeed a time when one's abilities are extremely high, but surely not this high?

This must be the pinnacle for everyone, right? The older they get, the less capable they become compared to Bai Yueyue. The more they learn about ancient dance, the more they understand Bai Yueyue's extraordinary abilities, and they can't even find any solace in their own thoughts.

The closer you are to Bai Yueyue in age, the greater the pressure becomes. "She's not even a competitor our age anymore!" they wailed.

Therefore, their unwavering gaze was not one of seriousness, but rather one of bewilderment, a doubt in their own understanding of the abilities expected of their age group in ancient dance.

It's not that there aren't any geniuses; you could throw a brick in the capital and find a whole bunch of geniuses, but please don't go this far.

After the dance ended, there was no applause, only silence.

"Huh? Did I make a mistake?" Bai Yueyue looked at Li Jieyue suspiciously, only to find the other party nodding slightly. "Then there's no problem. Damn it, you guys have no manners at all."

Because she couldn't stay too long, Bai Yueyue teleported herself out again.

"Miss, hurry, it's time to change clothes and makeup." Hu Meier said, and the two followed Bai Yueyue to the dressing room.

Bai Yueyue didn't like the dresses she was going to wear. She was already very thin and her waist wasn't fat, so why did she feel so uncomfortable every time she wore them?

Since my hair was styled up the whole time today, and my makeup had already been decided beforehand, the changes were quick to make.

"Miss, let's go." After confirming that everything was alright, Bai Yueyue took a deep breath. Now came the important part.

When Bai Yueyue arrived at the main gate again, she could already hear Qin Limin's voice inside.

But Bai Yueyue really wanted to block out her hearing; what Qin Limin said was too embarrassing.

Godfather, are you sure you're talking about me? I did take over an orphanage and I think I improved their lives; I also took in victims of robbery and trafficking, arranged jobs for them, and sheltered them; and I saved many people during the monster attack. But you don't need to say I'm kind, gentle, brave, wonderful, beautiful, etc. I am indeed beautiful.

"What's wrong, Mei'er?" While Bai Yueyue was thinking about how to shut Qin Limin up, Lin Xinyi asked Hu Mei'er, who was looking away.

"I think I saw someone familiar? Am I seeing things?" Hu Meier saw the other person's figure flash by, but it was too fast for her to see clearly.

"I'll have Cui Ye check the surveillance footage later," Lin Xinyi said. Neither of them could leave Bai Yueyue's side until they handed Bai Yueyue over to Qin Zijin.

Qin Zijing didn't keep Bai Yueyue waiting for long before she arrived at Bai Yueyue's side.

Wow, Qin Zijin, the way you look... oh my god, so flamboyant!

Qin Zijing's current appearance is something Bai Yueyue has never seen before; at least, Bai Yueyue rarely sees Qin Zijing with a specially styled hairstyle.

"What's wrong?" Qin Zijing asked, noticing Bai Yueyue's strange expression.

"It's nothing~" She shook her head slightly, but was suppressing a laugh. Finally, she used magic to calm herself down. "Brother Qin Zijin is so handsome~"

"Hehe, in order to stand next to Bai Yueyue, I can't be too bad," Qin Zijin said with a smile.

……nausea.

Bai Yueyue didn't believe Qin Zijin's words. She never felt that Qin Zijin's opinion of her had changed, and she hadn't done anything special.

Moreover, Qin Zijing has been saying these kinds of annoying things lately, she must be deliberately being sarcastic! Like now, she must be saying that she's too seductive.

"Don't worry, Brother Qin Zijin is already very outstanding. It is I who should strive to become an outstanding younger sister." Bai Yueyue said, but the sound of a guqin came from inside the door.

"What's going on?" the two personal attendants asked simultaneously.

"What are Father and the others doing?" Qin Zijing couldn't ask because she couldn't carry a cell phone, and it was too late to send her personal attendant to inquire now.

"Whoa... Where did this newbie come from?" Bai Yueyue said something that left the three of them in disbelief.

Hu Meier was the most skilled guqin player present besides Bai Yueyue, yet she couldn't believe this was the work of a novice. Moreover, she could tell the other person's skill was exceptional; it would take at least twenty years of study to achieve such a level. In Hu Meier's memory, none of the young masters and ladies of the Li family could compare to this person.

If the other party is around the same age as Bai Yueyue, then they are definitely a genius among geniuses. Are they here to cause trouble? The three of them thought at the same time.

As for Bai Yueyue, she felt helpless looking at the three people's surprised expressions.

It's one thing for Qin Zijing and the others not to know my abilities, and it's another for Xin Yi to have such a short learning period, but Mei'er, why are you surprised? The other person isn't even as good as you. Besides, Mother required me to reach this level in just four months!
