Li Lian's room which was wide enough for almost 50 people to sleep at now felt very cramped to herself. She had never liked the wideness of her room as she had been sleeping in a normal room made out of tatami wood on the floor, but that had never meant that she like a cramped room where all the maids were busy on running across the room in great haste.
"What hairstyle should we try?" The other maid asked Xi Yi who was currently blow-drying Li Lian's hair.
"I think that one is too revealing. Hm..." Xi Yi hummed before swiping the screen on the tablet. "This one would be good, what do you think?" The maid gave a long thought before she replied. "But at what time the party would finish? I'm afraid that this hairstyle will get loose before the party end."
"I think 9!" The other maid chided when her friend nudged the others with her elbow and initiating playful brows. "Don't you think for the rest of the night?" Xi Yi and the rest chuckled from their friend whispers, while Li Lian had a blank expression.
'Did you all forget I'm here? I can hear your voice clearly.'
Xi Yi who had finished drying her hair told the other maid to help Li Lian to wear her gown but they stopped for a moment to see some red spots on Li Lian's neck. Thinking that it was out of line for them to whisper about it, they didn't comment on anything but it was hard for them to keep their delightful smile of knowing that the master's and madam's relationship was as lovey dovey as always.
Li Lian had given up on resisting and did exactly what the maids told her to, thinking that it would be faster if she just cooperated with them in silence. But it also made her wonder if there is anyone who was like her now, suffering from the great embarrassment of being helped to wear a party gown.
A woman's war didn't begin when the party started, it began when they prepare to doll themself before the party. Hours passed and before they knew it, three hours ended when Xi Yi had clapped her hand to end their session on making a Goddess out of Li Lian.
Looking at Li Lian all the maids nodded in agreement, the madam was able to blind anyone's eyes from the sparkling brightness of her look. They even doubted themself that the madam was a human as she seemed to be having a halo-effect without having one on top of her head.
To their surprise, the lady's skin was very smooth and her face was without any plastic surgery, she was the embodiment of elegance, a living example of the word itself. Oggling at the madam's beautifulness, they gave high-five at each other.
On the other hand, Li Lian felt her back had been broken into two from sitting a straight three hours without a rest. Having skill in makeup was one thing but having the skill in keeping a straight posture while the maids were taking care of her was another big hurdle.
Suddenly, a maid came huffing to the door. "Xi Yi! The master has come back!"
"Good! Girls we are on time, where's the shoe?" Xi Yi waved her hand.
"Here!" the maid brought a box and revealed a golden framed high heels with a black body. The placed it on her feet finishing the whole look with the shoes.
Li Lian stood up from the seat as she had gotten the permission to do so and checked herself on the full body mirror that the maids brought for her. She glanced at the fabric of the dress that was made out of navy-colored fleece and golden embroidery. The top of the dress was connected to her neck and act as a shield to the red spots that Li Jun Wei made but had a slight opening on both shoulders, adorning her shoulder bones that were one of her strongest points.
The rest of the skirt bellow was made of silk, it was simple but at the same time it gave off the aura of completion, t was without an answer needed that the dress must have been made for her as the dress fit perfectly for herself. White and goldish flowers on her hair were clipped tightly on both sides of her head and her hair tied in simple loose curls plated to the side.
"Madam, I suggest you go and greet the master, we are a little bit late. " Xi Yi gave her the needed purse before waving her hand to Li Lian who had strode to meet Li Jun Wei on the first floor. Her face was a little red due to her shyness and eagerness to hear Li Jun Wei's thoughts on her wearing the dress that he prepared only for her.
Li Jun Wei walked out of the car as he had changed his suits for the party in advance before coming home, today he wore a dark navy suit to match Li Lian's dress color. His hair was curled to the side, bringing his indifference to look milder. His prominent cheekbones, the sharp alluring chiseled jawline that ended to the neck that was covered in a black turtle neck shirt. Everything about him attracted all eyes to him, even without him wanting any of it.
Besides him, a young man with a good-looking face that had little bits of similar features from his older brother wore a dark green colored suit with the bangs to his hair covering his forehead. Li Xiao Chen lived up to his appellation for having many women to date, his face was without reason as he was able to thud people's hearts aloud.
