" Mnnnnn….. something is still missing there… ", Xue sighed. She sat on that chair for hours ago, and they still haven't finished. She glanced at herself, a young lady with brown hair and plain eye color was looking back. A long sapphire dress was wrapped around her slender body, with the help of a pair of heels her figure looked slimmer. " This set suits you perfectly ! If you didn't hide your real hair color, you'd look even more magnificent !! ", complained stylist Yu, who couldn't hide her disagreement on the Zhao family's arrangement. After the dress and hair were done, it was the make-up's turn. Xue thought which color would suit her current appearance, since her hair and eye's color looked quite common. As she was still lost in her thoughts, Mrs Yu approached her silently, while holding a huge purse, with sparkling eyes. " Uh ?? Mrs Yu ? ", " Stay still ! I need to try a few combinations that I came up with each dress. This blue one has at least a dozen ". In this moment Xue felt that her soul was ready to leave her body.
" Fei'er, are you ready ? ", " Almost mom, could you help me to put on these earrings ? ", " Sure my dear ", a warm picture of a pair of mother and daugter was accopaigned by the rest of the family. Jian Yi was sitting beside his father while discussing on the current project of their company. While Mrs. zhao was puttin on the acessories, she leaned near Fei Li's ear, " At this party a few powerful family members will be gathered, so my dear Fei'er, you may find your future husband ! ", " Mom, stop putting strange ideas on her head, who'll know what she'll do this time. Last time she offended a certain young master, and now we're barely holdimg on our company's shares ". " Brother !!! How could you say that, it was him who started it ! ", " Yes, yes, our lovely daughter, how could she done something wrong ? ". " Stop, all of you ", Mr. Zhao tubbed his temple, that daughter of him made troubles after troubles. This time they got in debt with the Zhang family, but luckily a solution was offered : the marriage beetween Xue Li and Chen Feng. It was quite a strange way to pay off their debt, but effective, so he agreed. Tonight was a important day, so no mistakes were allowed, he glared at that good daugher of his, " You should be grounded, since you stated a ruckust that almost made the company on the verge of bankruptcy. If you dare to make another mistake, we won't shield you anymore ". Fei Li made a wronged expression and ran in her mother's amrs, " Dear, don't worry I'll keep her near me, okay ? Don't be too hars on her, she's our only daughter afterall ". Hearing her wife's words, his expression softened a bit, still, he trew a warining glare at Fei'er. Jian Yi rolled his eyes, his sister was always like that, behaving like a kid and making fuss on everything she could. Such an attention seeker. But it didn't matter as long the marriage was successful.
A few people were standing at the door, witnessing the scene. Yu looked at the second miss, with a worried look, while she was screaming inside her. ' You bastards, what kind of family are you ?? How dare you treat my muse like this ? '. She rolled up her sleeves, ready to say something, " Forget it Mrs. Yu, I've never seen they as my family, so I'm not angry ", Xue stopped, while shaking her head. Amber eyes looked at her, if she wasn't angry, this didn't mean that it didn't hurt. In this moment, the stylist took a decision.
Xue smiled at her reaction, but her smile faded from her face while walking forward. " Oh, so the monster now looks a bit normal, uh ? ", " sister, your dress is really pretty, unlike your tongue ", " You… !! ". She felt a bit tired of these remarks and childish words, she wanted to have a long rest, without any annoyance around her. Jian Yi cut in, to avoid further discussion, " Since you're ready, we can go to the party location ", he stood up, followed by the rest. Xue narrowed her eyes for a moment, still she had to go with them. As she took a few steps, a person stood in front of her, " miss Zhao, would you like to come at my home as a friend ? ", " Mrs. Yu ? I'm afraid that my parents won't allow this, also I'm still recovering my health, I'd bring too much troubles ". Mei Lin smiled slyly, " miss, I asked what's your opinion, not others ". Xue raised fixed her eyes on her, " I'd like to refuse this offer, I can't accept it. Still thank you very much ". As she finished, she turned and walked out. The car was still waiting outside, the right-front car door was left open, it the seat near the driver. The other one was missing, so they left without her. Better like this, so she wouldn't be bothered by their presence.
" Stylist Yu ? We have to go ", Mei Li was still thinking, she'll make sure that Xue will accept her offer no matter what. A wide smile spread on her face. The other assistants, seeing this, felt a bit worried, there were only two reasons why she smiled. One, she was in a good mood. Two, someone was bound to suffer. They hastened their actions, gathering all the things.
Xue glanced outside the window, it was surely a rare sight for her, to see flickering lights of the city, like a swarm of fireflies. When she was still recovering in that hospital, it was impossible to have such a scenery, since the building was lost in the countryside. There were so many things that she had never seen before. If only she wasn't tied with her blood family…. . She sighed, her mood was getting heavier and heavier, she glanced at her phone, it was almost the time.
