Chu Junling showed a surprised expression at the right time.
"You rascal, you're not that big, but you're making so much trouble. You've even ruined the evening gown Miss Tong gave me. What should we do?"
The orange cat howled in despair.
"Meow, ow, ow!"
Please God, distinguish between loyalty and treachery!
It wasn't it!
Su Ci picked up the skirt from the ground, held the kitten with wet eyes in her arms, and stroked its fluffy and soft hair.
The skirt was torn from the fabric to the lining and was completely unwearable.
The culprit, who had casually ruined a five million dollar dress, felt no guilt at all. He squatted like a well-behaved big cat, raised his head and suggested with a smile:
"Would you like to try on the dress I prepared for you, Senior?"
He didn't give Su Ci a chance to refuse.
"I'm not as knowledgeable about dresses and jewelry as Miss Tong. Only hard work can make up for lack of talent. The early bird catches the worm. I've prepared a lot. Please don't think it's ugly, Senior Sister."
Several costume designers and stylists came in pushing hangers with exquisite and gorgeous dresses. Each one was as elaborate as a wedding gown and inlaid with rare pearls and gems.
Su Ci couldn't help but laugh.
"It's too grand. It's not proper courtesy for a guest to overshadow the birthday person at a birthday party."
"Ah, alright, I'll just listen to you."
Chu Junling looked a little regretful as she took out a relatively low-key pearl white satin fishtail skirt from the hanger, her eyes wandering between Su Ci and the dress.
The corners of his lips unconsciously curved up.
"Even a senior sister wearing a sack can stun everyone."
He wanted to pack up his senior sister and take her home to hide her.
He was also worried that his senior would become afraid of him and distance herself from him.
Caught in a dilemma.
…
Tong Yuting's birthday party.
The manor castle is decorated in a beautiful and dreamy way. Celebrities and distinguished guests gather here, dressed in elegant clothes, drinking and chatting, and luxury gifts are piled up like small mountains.
Because it was a birthday party for a younger generation, most of the guests were young people, and laughter could be heard everywhere.
Although he disliked the fiancée designated by his family, Feng Jiqi still gave her face and allowed Tong Yuting to hold his arm and act as a human pillar to support the occasion.
However, the person who usually pestered him was not paying attention to him this time. Instead, he looked towards the door of the banquet hall, as if he was waiting for someone.
Feng Ji was also a little absent-minded.
He delivered the invitation letter, and judging from Chu Junling's expression, he seemed not interested.
If Chu Junling doesn't come, it means Su Ci won't come either. He doesn't even have the qualifications to meet her...
Suddenly there was a commotion at the door.
Everyone's eyes were cast on the girl who was as bright as moonlight. The silky and lustrous satin fishtail skirt set off her pretty face and well-proportioned figure, making her look like a mermaid leaping out of the sea.
People even briefly overlooked that the man she was arm in arm with was the future chief consul of the empire.
"Susu——"
Tong Yuting's eyes lit up, she left her cheap fiancé behind, and ran over holding up her skirt, but when she saw another figure entering, her expression became strange.
"Xia Chuhe, why are you here?"
She remembered not inviting Xia Chuhe.
He also specifically instructed the villa's steward not to hire temporary workers with unknown experience on the day of the banquet.
Xia Chuhe was arm in arm with a young man in a suit and tie. Her luxurious dress and dazzling jewelry made her look like a completely new person, with an expression of arrogance and disdain.
The young man protected her behind him.
"Yuting, Chuhe is my female companion. She is a guest, so please be quiet."
