The day of the grand party came and Long Hu knew very well what was waiting for her.
The ball would be filled with people trying to curry favor with the greater companies and establish a mutual connection. All of them were only greedy people looking for a way to climb up the ranks.
Long Hu was being attended to by maids as they helped her dress and prep for the ball. The dress fit her perfectly as it hugged her small waist and well proportioned hips. She had to admit to herself her chest wasn't the biggest yet they still looked nice in her dress, she had to give props to the designer. The slit in the dress allowed for people to notice the family insignia wrapped around her thigh. The dragon which could only be on the direct line of Long family members was tattooed onto her. She still remembered the day she got it.
She was allowed to choose where and what color she wanted the dragon on her body. She recalled her dad offering her pink and purple yet she felt attracted to black as it matched her hair and contrasted well with her milky white pale skin. It wrapped around her thigh encircling it three times before it ended at her hip.
This was prof she would lead the family to glory one day and she always felt it was special. Many would be shocked to discoverer such an angelic beauty possessed such a tattoo on her body.
They proceeded with her makeup and hair which were styled simply. Her long silky hair was placed with a half up updo while the rest fell on her back in curls. Her makeup was simple yet elegant as it was done to draw more attention to her lovely eyes which resembled the same color of her dress.
Placing on her jewelry and heels the maids couldn't help but look at their beautiful miss. She was petite and small in stature yet she glowed with elegance and nobility. Her face glowed with a natural beauty that could outrank the many models in the industry while her skin looked as soft and tender as snow. She'd grown up splendidly taking in all the good traits from her parents, well except her ruthlessness. No one knew where she got that from....
Little did they know it was actually all of them.
Long Hu grabbed her purse which was a simple handbag and phone as she started heading outside. Turning towards her maids she smiled brightly and nodded lightly in recognition of their hard work. The maid waved at the young miss they grew up with while wondering what the world would think of her when she arrived.
Walking to the front she met her father who smiled brightly at her daughter noticing the necklace she wore. She reminded him so much of his dear wife that his eyes almost watered. Walking towards his little dumpling he held his hand out for her to grab it. Long Hu couldn't help but snicker on the inside knowing her father would run rampant looking for her in a few hours. Her father personally opened the door and helped her in while she smiled a bit trying to hide her plan.
She loved her father indeed, but it had been years since she last set him on a roll. How would he react after this? Siting in the newly bought rolls Royce phantom limo she waved at her dad as he was about to close the door but her suddenly stopped.
" My little hu'er if any man approaches you like a hungry wolf send him to the moon and I'll take responsibility! No man is allowed to approach you without my consent!" He said is a justifying manner. Long Hu giggled a bit at the fact her father just told her to send any pervert man flying.
She nodded "don't worry dad I'll be sure to send them to the moon and back. But it's time to go or I'll be late! See you late!" She said she chuckled and closed the door. Her father stared at her with worry. His little caterpillar has turned into a butterfly and was now going out into the world.
He shivered hoping no one would offend her. Because if they did not even he could stop her wrath. He wiped a tear at the edge of his eye which was threatening to escape, she definitely had his wife's temper.
As she drove in silence she took out her phone and texted her trusted maid to begin her duties. Long Hu laid back and sighed. She was finally able to come out into the world. Since young she'd been trapped in that famed mansion. She was allowed to take vacation but she couldn't even meet people as her dad would either rent of buy the entire tourist area and close it so she could explore!
It like he was afraid she'd get stolen away!
She smiled and she received a messages from Li Ying Ye she had arrived at the socialites ball. Thirty minutes later she meet herself at the entrance that was covered in a red carpet. Many big figures in the business industry walked as paparazzi took pictures of them entering. Long Hu adjusted her dress and waited for her chauffeur to open her door and help her out as they arrived at the entrance.
Many couldn't believe their eyes as they hadn't seen such beautiful lady at any of the past socialites events. She was petite and small with looks that could pass as an angels. Her skin was milky white and looked so tender and delicate that a simple pinch could cause it impurities. The way she stood before everyone gave off an aura of domineering elegance that made everyone around feel inferior. Her face remained impartial to all the attention on her as she walked through the carpet like an untouchable goddess.
Many couldn't keep their eyes off of her and could only wonder who she was. As Long Hu walked into the large room she looked around to notice many looking her way and gossiping. Many held jealous and envious stares while others held admiration and curiosity.
Soon Long Hu caught sight of the person she was looking for and smirked inwardly. Her best friend was mingling with many women as
they looked at the sweets table which had many extravagant desserts prepared by many world famous chefs. The host of this socialite gathering was indeed one of the six great family's so she expected no less. As she walked towards them Li Ying Ye noticed her and smiled as she walked towards her. The women who were with her before turned and scowled as they were trying to curry favor with a high standing women yet they were interrupted. Li Ying Ye smiled and hugged Long Hu as if no one was around "I'm glad to see my little tiger is finally coming out into the world." She said with a smirk.
They may be the same age but Li Ying Ye was taller with long slender legs and a stature of 180 cm making her look like a model when around others. On the other hand Long Hu has always been quite short only remaining at 154 cm. She sighed at her friends remark and rolled her eyes a bit "did you get me what I asked?"
Li Yong Ye smirked at her best friends request and handed her a slip of paper "a cruise to for a week with a vip suite and unlimited food. Plus there's a little surprise when you arrive." She said as she winked.
Long Hu knew well her friend was up to something as her mischievous smirk was a signature move when she pulled some strings. " thanks Ying ying. Next time I'll pay for our vacation" she said as she took the slip and put it in her handbag.
"At what time does this trash party end?" She asked as she looked around. Li Ying Ye swigged as she knew her little tiger was not sociable at all.
" Around twelve, but if you want to successfully escape before your dada begins to upturn the entire city I say you leave in about an hour in a half, at nine thirty." She replied in a casual manner.
Long Hu nodded as she walked towards a table and sat down. Both the young lady's simple movements attracted eyes from all over. If the newcomer was able to talk with Li Yong Ye from the Great Li Family so casually she had to have a big background.
