Ling Chuxia’s head was spinning from Ji Xinxin’s incessant barrage, and in the end, she could only temporarily accept Ji Xinxin’s proposal. So after getting her hair done, she went straight to Ji Xinxin’s apartnt in the city center.
She flipped over a flower vase to find the spare key to Ji Xinxin’s apartnt, and upon entering, she followed Ji Xinxin’s directions and entered the walk-in closet.
Ji Xinxin’s walk-in closet connected two large rooms, and as soon as Ling Chuxia stepped in, she could feel the Heavenly Empress’s aura. All the clothes, jewelry, and shoes there were Ji Xinxin’s gear.
The most eye-catching piece, of course, was the black gown hanging in the middle.
Entirely black, with a luster gleaming within, its simple yet ingenious design possessed a magical charm, making one unable to resist the urge to put it on after just one glance.
Ling Chuxia was montarily stunned, her brows furrowing instantly. Regardless of whether the dress was pretty or not, it was far too revealing—the entire back was exposed, and the mont she put it on, it would be completely backless. How could she possibly accept that?
Ling Chuxia instinctively turned around to leave, thinking as she did that there were only two hours left until eight o’clock. She wondered if she still had ti to find another suitable evening gown.
However, just as she was about to step out of the walk-in closet, Li Qian’s face suddenly erged in her mind, especially her signature look of disdain and cold smirk, as if it were right in front of her eyes. Ling Chuxia’s steps froze, and she found herself unable to move forward.
The hands Ling Chuxia had at her sides slowly clenched into fists, her eyes struggling. Then, she slowly turned back, stepped forward, and took down the black gown.

At eight o’clock in the evening, Emperor Hotel.
Li Qian had extravagantly booked the supre VIP room at the Emperor Hotel as the venue for the class reunion dinner.
At half-past seven, she even made a special phone call to Ling Chuxia to make sure she wouldn’t back out at the last minute, only to say contentedly, "Chuxia, it has been such a long ti since we last t, I’ve missed you terribly. Tonight, we must have a good catch-up. Oh, and there’s Young Master Shi as well."
She deliberately paused for a few seconds before uttering those last few words, her tone brimming with triumph.
Ling Chuxia calmly hung up the phone, thinking about all the information she had gathered that morning, and let out a slight smile.
Who the victor would be tonight was still unsure—let Li Qian be proud for now! She could never beat her elder sister in the past, and as her elder sister’s younger sibling, there was no way she would be able to beat her!
Ling Chuxia put on the black evening dress, looked at the completely transford reflection of herself in the mirror, and was montarily dazed. But the next second, she clenched her fists, took a deep breath, lifted her head, held out her chest, and walked out of the walk-in closet.
