Xu Rubao listened to Xu Ziqing's 'instructions' all the way, and she became a little impatient. Attending a birthday party was such a hassle. She should have just stayed at Lu Jingheng's villa and read a book instead.
Back at the Xu family home, Xu Ziqing told Xia Lanying that they would be attending the Lu family's birthday banquet the next day.
Xia Lanying was naturally delighted and immediately hired a stylist for them. Tomorrow, they had to dress up beautifully at home before going to the Lu family.
As for that ugly woman, if she goes along, she'll just be there as an accessory.
If Ziqing hadn't mentioned that the Lu family had also invited her, they really wouldn't have wanted her to go.
After Xu Rubao returned, he ate dinner and played chess with his grandfather.
Her chess skills were quite good; she played three games before returning to her room.
The next day, Xu Ziqing seemed excited all day long, as she could attend the Lu family's birthday banquet the next day.
At school, she knew that many girls wanted to attend Lu Mingyu's birthday party, but not everyone was qualified to attend.
The birthday party was scheduled for noon. After breakfast, Xu Ziqing went upstairs and asked Xu Rubao to come upstairs as well.
She took out the clothes that Lu Jingheng had given her before, one set was light blue and the other was light pink, both of them were little princess dresses.
She wasn't one to wear it herself, but she gritted her teeth and asked, "Do you prefer pink or light blue?"
Xu Rubao glanced at it and thought it was quite extravagant, a new Chanel design.
"When will you have money to buy new clothes? Aren't you short of money at home right now?"
I lost a lot of money to others before, and my family's finances are just barely enough to get by.
"It was because of these two sets of clothes that Grandpa found out about your injury. Lu Jingheng gave them to me as compensation. I... I got my new clothes dirty that day while saving you."
Xu Ziqing didn't hide anything from her, after all, it was the truth.
I was reluctant to let her wear it, but I couldn't lose face too much.
Xu Rubao never expected that Lu Jingheng would compensate her for the clothes.
She glanced at them and didn't seem to care. "You choose first, which one do you like?"
"I didn't know that. I like both outfits very much. Xu Rubao, I'm warning you, these clothes are only temporarily borrowed from you. You absolutely mustn't damage them. When we get home, you still have to return them to me."
She felt she had to be very careful when wearing such a beautiful dress.
There isn't enough money at home to let her buy such a beautiful and luxurious dress.
"The pink one is like a little princess's dress, with a bow on the waistband and pretty beads on it. I think pink would suit you better."
When Xu Ziqing heard her say that, she realized that she also liked pink, but thought blue was pretty too, even though it was a bit simpler in design.
She picked up the pink dress, compared it to the blue one, and said, "Okay, I'll take the pink princess dress. You can have the blue one, but you have to take good care of it."
Seeing how much she treasured the dress, Xu Rubao knew that it was truly difficult for her to let her wear it.
"Alright, you've said it so many times, I'll take good care of your dress and won't embarrass you, okay?"
After saying that, the two went to change their clothes. Xu Ziqing put on the pink dress and indeed had a sweet and beautiful princess-like look.
She looked at herself in the mirror and became increasingly satisfied. This dress would definitely make her the most stunning woman today.
However, after a while, Xu Rubao came out after changing her clothes, and Xu Ziqing was instantly stunned.
