Chapter 104: Preparing for the Coming-of-Age Ceremony

When Lu Chi heard Su Yun Jiao mention the coming-of-age ceremony, he suddenly felt a bit happy.

Because on the day of Su Yun Jiao's coming-of-age ceremony, they would announce the engagement of the two.

By then Su Yun Jiao would truly be his legitimate fiancée.

"Lu bro, what is a coming-of-age ceremony?"

"I heard that wealthy families hold coming-of-age ceremonies, inviting many celebrities; is that true?"

"I thought it only existed in TV dramas; I didn't expect it to be real!"

……

The few lackeys around Lu Chi have never seen the world.

Lu Chi also couldn't be bothered to talk more with them.

He rubbed his forehead and said, "Do you have something? If not, don't bother me here."

"Lu bro, Lu bro, where are you going?"

Lu Chi directly got up and left.

Soon the homeroom teacher will come to assign winter break homework.

Lu Chi left at that moment.

By then the homeroom teacher will be angry again!

"Yeah, your coming-of-age ceremony is coming up soon; can I not go and take a look?"

After saying that, Zhou Tingting tugged at Zhou Xian beside her and said, "Brother, come with me too; I also want to attend Su Yun Jiao's coming-of-age ceremony, I heard it's fun, I also want to see."

"Tingting, don't mess around; they haven't even agreed yet."

"Of course you can."

Su Yun Jiao nodded and said, "Everyone can come together; anyway, the more the merrier. I think Brother Jingqing will also invite the Zhou family then, and we can all watch the show."

"What does 'watch the show' mean?"

Zhou Tingting looked puzzled, not knowing what Su Yun Jiao meant.

Su Yun Jiao didn't say more, but Zhou Xian knew a bit in his heart.

What Su Yun Jiao said should be about announcing the engagement at the coming-of-age ceremony.

As early as a few years ago, it had already been circulating in the circle.

The Su family's miss would announce her engagement to the Lu family at the coming-of-age ceremony.

By then the Lu family will surely invite many people to come and witness.

But Zhou Xian felt this wasn't a good thing.

"Class monitor, Tingting, you must come on the evening of the 11th; I heard Brother Jingqing prepared a especially nice outfit for me, and I'm really looking forward to it."

"Sure, sure; I also have many nice dresses at home, and then I can look at yours."

"Okay."

Su Yun Jiao quickly reached an agreement with Zhou Tingting.

When she returned home in the afternoon, Su Yun Jiao first lay on the big bed in her room.

Only a few days left until her coming-of-age ceremony, but Lu Jingqing didn't leak a hint to her.

She also didn't know whom he had invited or what kind of outfit he had prepared for her.

Downstairs.

Secretary Li shouted upstairs: "Miss Su, Boss Lu asks you to come down."

Upon hearing that Lu Jingqing wanted to see her, Su Yun Jiao immediately got up from the bed and went downstairs.

"What's up? Is it about the coming-of-age ceremony..."

Before she could finish speaking, she saw a room full of people arrive at Jingyuan.

The people who came were all very pretty girls; Su Yun Jiao stared, then asked, "Brother Jingqing, what is this..."

"It's the stylist and makeup artist I found for you, to look at your base, plus a batch of newly arrived clothes; you can have the models try them on."

"Model try-on?"

Suddenly, a few girls with body types similar to hers walked over.

They were all young, and they were wearing the outfits Lu Jingqing had prepared for Su Yun Jiao.

White, red, black, champagne, dark green, peach pink,...

Seeing these varied dresses, Su Yun Jiao felt her eyes dazzled.

"How come there are so many?"

In her previous life, Lu Mu had merely had someone casually prepare one outfit for her, and Su Yun Jiao even forgot what that outfit looked like.

Nowadays, Lu Jingqing actually prepared this many clothes.

"You need to learn to raise your standards; among these clothes, only one satisfies me."

"……"

Su Yun Jiao twitched the corner of her mouth.

In other words, this dress selection has nothing to do with her.

Lu Jingqing had already chosen long ago.

He just wanted her to guess which one he had picked.

"Miss Su's skin is fair, her texture fine and lustrous, waist slim hips full, chest plump and round, suited for a dress that flatters her figure; Miss Su's hair is very long, and when curled it will surely look beautiful."

"Miss Su has a standard oval face, especially lively eyes, full lips, she is a radiant beauty."

The makeup artist and stylist were over there talking to themselves.

Su Yun Jiao felt a bit headache.

She now only wants to know which dress Lu Jingqing actually chose.

After an afternoon of fuss, Su Yun Jiao finally picked out an outfit that Lu Jingqing was satisfied with.

That was a stunning red pomegranate white gauze dress; beneath the red bustier and waist‑cinching skirt, a hint of white gauze could be seen, making the whole person look ethereal, and it was very high‑end.

Su Yun Jiao hesitated, looking at Lu Jingqing before her, and asked: "Really have to wear like this? Does it feel a bit too mature?"

You are already eighteen; since you are eighteen, you should not display your temperament; moreover, this dress is not that mature; it's you who dare not wear it.

Su Yun Jiao indeed dared not wear such clothes; in her previous life, Lu Mu kept instilling in her the idea that girls who wear such clothes lack self‑love, causing her to never dare wear beautiful clothes.

And now, Su Yun Jiao finally understood what true beauty is.

The clothes she likes, that make her feel confident, are the most beautiful.

I understand, thank you, Brother Jingqing.

Su Yun Jiao nodded to the stylist beside her and said: "Just this one."

I will design a hairstyle for Miss Su.

I will design makeup for Miss Su.

Jingyuan suddenly became lively.

Only after Su Yun Jiao cooperated with the makeup design did she realize it was already night.

Lu Jingqing seemed to have known earlier that they would be busy this late, so he had ordered dinner in advance.

Su Yun Jiao was so hungry her stomach felt pressed against her back; just as she was about to go eat, she was stopped by Secretary Li beside her: "Miss Su, to ensure you don't gain weight on the day of the coming‑of‑age ceremony, your diet must be strictly controlled these days."

Is that really necessary? It's only five days!

Su Yun Jiao thought that even if she gained weight over five days, she wouldn't gain much.

But Secretary Li shook his head, obviously not thinking so: "Miss Su, there can be no margin for error; these days you must strictly control your diet to reach the best condition on the day of the coming‑of‑age ceremony."

Upon hearing that, Su Yun Jiao asked with a forced smile: "Then may I ask, what should I do?"
