Luo Weizi was caught off guard. Due to her daughter’s strange illness, the sons of the Modu Family were unwilling to marry her daughter. But today, her daughter had unexpectedly recovered, and now the Song Family ca to propose. This left Luo Weizi surprised and shocked.
"Mr. Song, my daughter is still young; let’s talk about this later." Luo Weizi gently refused. In the past, she might have agreed because Song Mingzhe was indeed one of the finest young talents in Shanghai in recent years. Her daughter marrying him would be considered lucky, but now her daughter’s strange illness is cured, and her temperant and beauty surpass before. Luo Weizi was no longer in a hurry regarding her daughter’s marriage.
"President Luo, everyone knows about your daughter’s situation. Honestly, I’m not willing regarding this marriage proposal. However, my son bumped into your daughter today and was smitten. He urged to co to you; otherwise, I would not co to you about this matter." Song Ziqiang’s face showed a bit of displeasure. He had thought Luo Weizi would agree imdiately, but who would have thought she’d refuse, treating her daughter like a treasure.
Upon hearing this, Luo Weizi understood it was Song Mingzhe who t her daughter today. Indeed, given her daughter’s current appearance, no man wouldn’t be moved.
However, Song Ziqiang’s attitude displeased Luo Weizi. Judging from his tone, it seed his son fancying her daughter was her daughter’s good fortune.
"Mr. Song, I’m not inclined to interfere in young people’s affairs. If both young ones fancy each other, I have no objections. But if it’s only your son who is smitten, and my daughter isn’t, there’s nothing to be done. I can’t let my daughter marry soone she doesn’t like." Luo Weizi said with a gentle and solemn smile.
"President Luo, you should know my son is extraordinary. I doubt anyone more outstanding than my son can be found in Shanghai. Your daughter, as long as she’s not foolish, shouldn’t refuse." Song Ziqiang said arrogantly.
"Your son indeed is outstanding, but my daughter is not inferior. I dare say you won’t find anyone prettier than my daughter in all of Shanghai." Luo Weizi countered sharply.
Her words caused many socialites of Shanghai to frown.
"President Luo, that comnt is a bit excessive. Is your daughter a fairy? Shanghai is known for its beauties; no one dares to claim they’re the city’s first beauty. Your daughter likely doesn’t have the qualification either?"
A socialite said with dissatisfaction.
"Exactly, everyone has different tastes. President Luo, even if your daughter is beautiful, within this vast city of Shanghai, filled with beauties, there surely are those more beautiful than her, aren’t there? Why not let her co out and compete with the beauties here?" Soone else chid in.
"Haha, that’s not a bad idea. Tonight, Shanghai’s high society is mostly gathered here. Let’s take this opportunity to select the city’s first beauty among the elite circle."
A young man, slicked and powdered, suggested.
The suggestion was good, quickly gaining much support.
Luo Weizi smiled slightly and didn’t refuse. Now, she was quite confident about her daughter.
"Alright, since everyone is in such high spirits, let’s liven things up." Luo Weizi said with a smile.
Seeing Luo Weizi agree, the scene beca lively as many socialites present began touching up their makeup, gathering together like a blooming garden, each vying for attention.
These socialites were quite attractive and had dressed ticulously for the evening. Picking out the first beauty among them beca quite a challenge. People have different aesthetic preferences; so like cute beauties, others prefer icy divas, while so favor long-haired beauties, and others short-haired ones. The socialites, each competing in grace, made for a dazzling spectacle.
"This really is tough; they’re all very beautiful."
Many onlookers found themselves facing the difficulty of choice among these beautiful socialites.
At that mont, Luo Yue and Ye Tian arrived. Luo Yue had not changed into evening attire, remaining in casual clothes and sneakers.
Having worn a mask all day, now she could take it off.
"Eh, what are they doing?"
As soon as Luo Yue entered, she saw many Shanghai socialites in evening dresses gathered together, being scrutinized by others.
Luo Yue glanced through the crowd and quickly spotted her mother.
Luo Weizi had been paying attention to the door, and upon seeing her daughter arrive with Ye Tian, she hurried over.
"Young Master Ye, did you enjoy yourself today?" Luo Weizi approached Ye Tian with a respectful smile.
"It was alright, President Luo. Tonight seems quite lively here." Ye Tian replied with a smile.
"They’re selecting the first beauty among Shanghai’s elite social circle. But since Ling’er has arrived, naturally she will be it." Luo Weizi said with a smile.
"Mom, I don’t want to be the first beauty; it’s too embarrassing." Luo Yue said, suddenly feeling shy.
"There’s nothing embarrassing about it. Before, due to your illness, I was reluctant to let you be in the lilight. But now you’re alright, you’ll certainly be in various occasions in the future. You’ll need to adapt, learn to handle others’ gaze, whether kind, malicious, envious, or jealous." Luo Weizi instructed earnestly.
Luo Yue nodded in agreent with her mother’s words.
Luo Weizi presented her daughter in front of everyone, loudly saying: "This is my daughter, Luo Yue."
Everyone couldn’t help but look at Luo Yue. Though her attire was inappropriate for the venue, her ethereal, unworldly deanor made them forget her attire.
"Wow, she’s so beautiful. Doesn’t seem to have any makeup on?" Soone exclaid, eyes wide, having seen beauties but never one with such elegance as Luo Yue. It wouldn’t be an overstatent to call her a fairy.
Luo Yue, originally possessing the Snake Spirit Body, now had her Spiritual Body activated and refined by Ye Tian. Her deanor was beyond mortal ladies, standing out starkly amidst heavily made-up socialites.
Even Song Mingzhe’s parents were stunned, realizing why their son was adamant about marrying Luo Yue.
"President Luo, your daughter indeed far surpasses the other ladies here and deserves the title of Shanghai’s elite circle’s first beauty." Soone quickly flattered.
With those words, everyone imdiately agreed. Despite differing personal aesthetics, Luo Yue’s beauty was breathtaking, carrying Immortal Energy incomparable to others, leaving no objections.
