"Me, attending a debutante ball? I'm no debutante, you must be joking." Ye Qingqing found it amusing.
Miao Tianxiang actually invited her to the spring socialite party. She was not qualified at all. She had no family background and her education was nothing special. She knew that much about herself, so she didn't want to make a fool of herself.
"I say you are, but if we're really talking about it, there aren't many true socialites," Miao Tianxiang said with a mocking smile.
She is the host of the debutante ball, but what is her background?
To put it bluntly, they were prostitutes, coming from the dirtiest places, and had absolutely no connection with socialites. It was only because she was rich that she was qualified to hold so-called debutante balls; otherwise, who would give her that face?
Ultimately, money is king these days. If you have money, you're a socialite; if you don't, you're just a country bumpkin.
Ye Qingqing understood her meaning but remained silent. She had no right to say such things; Miao Tianxiang had already climbed to the top of the pyramid, so of course she could say that. "That girl from the Ruan family will be coming too. You can all go together then, and I'll find you a pretty dance partner," Miao Tianxiang joked.
No sooner had she finished speaking than Lu Mo, who was talking to Ye Xunmei, turned his head and looked at them warily. Miao Tianxiang couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be nervous, he's just a dance partner."
The men who can attend the ball are all of considerable importance; their family background, education, and appearance have all been investigated. In the past, her balls have even brought together several couples!
"I can't dance, so maybe we shouldn't have a dance partner?" Ye Qingqing declined politely, not wanting to dance with a strange man.
“The ball is still three months away. I’ll find you a dance teacher, and you’ll learn quickly. Maybe you can even go to Paris in the summer!” Miao Tianxiang smiled meaningfully.
Her ball is a prelude to the Paris Ball. She has quite a bit of influence, and almost every year two or three girls are selected from her to attend the world's top debutante ball. Good opportunities should not go to outsiders; of course, good opportunities should be given to one's own people.
She has already reserved one spot for Ye Qingqing this year, but only if she attends her ball first.
"A ball in Paris? I'm not qualified, you must be joking." Ye Qingqing waved her hands repeatedly.
Of course she knew what going to Paris meant. It was a top-tier ball that even princesses attended. To be able to attend, one had to be extremely wealthy and come from a distinguished family. Both were indispensable.
Like the family of the architectural master Du Kaiming, whose daughter and granddaughter were all guests at the ball, almost all of them attended. To be honest, someone like her was really not qualified. Ye Qingqing felt quite embarrassed to be able to attend Miao Tianxiang's ball.
Miao Tianxiang scoffed, her expression arrogant, "I said you're qualified, and that's enough. Your Ice Skin Snow Cream is enough to buy several invitations."
The host of the Paris Ball was Countess Helena, who was also her business partner and friend. She kept pestering her for the skin-smoothing cream, and if she were to exchange it for an invitation, Helena would definitely agree.
Ye Qingqing swallowed hard, feeling as if she had been kissed by God. Just a moment ago she was an ordinary girl in Pingjiang Alley, but now she had suddenly transformed and could even attend a top-level ball.
The change in her identity came too quickly, and she couldn't accept it for a while. It felt like a dream. Miao Tianxiang found it amusing and pinched her face several times, teasing her, "Don't take it too seriously. Just treat it like visiting someone."
She used to think of that circle as incredibly mysterious, just like Ye Qingqing. But once she finally squeezed in, she realized that it was just like any other ordinary person, except that the people in that circle were much more hypocritical.
