1. "Ms. Ji, what do you think about this style?"
2. Gloomy
1. "Not bad. It suits you well, my dear. You'll definitely shine at the party tonight!"
2. "I think that's enough. I'm going to change."
1. Serena went to the library early this morning, and she's still nowhere to be seen...
1. This is fine too. Otherwise, she'll just be sad again when I refuse to take her to the party with me.
1. "Miss ji, we selected a few pieces to go with your outfit today. Is there anything you like?"
1. "Huh? What's this?"
1. "Yes, this brooch does look a bit plain... If you don't like it, miss, I'll take it away at once."
2. "No, I like it a lot."
1. "I'll buy this one."
1. I wonder what serena's up to right now...
1. "Uncle chen, why did you give me this dress out of the blue?"
1. "Because I'm going to take you to an important party later."
1. "Is... The second part of the plan starting now?"
2. "That's right. The jins will be at tonight's party, so be on your best behavior."
1. "Mm."
2. Uncle chen likes avery, but I don't
1. Avery, but I don't.
2. Even if he is the young master of the jin family and a top-class alpha... Even if he can support my comeback...
1. "I just can't help that I don't like him!"
1. I never needed anyone else by my side.
2. What I want,
1. Is willow ji.
1. "Miles!"
1. "Lawrence, you've arrived."
1. "Serena, you're getting more beautiful with each day."
2. "A smart and capable girl like you will surely have a bright future ahead."
1. After the wei family's decline, I didn't think their child would still be active in our circles.
2. Considering how highly president jin regards her, she's someone worth keeping an eye on...
1. "Father, uncle chen."
2. "Avery, you're here too?"
1. "Miss wei."
1. "Miles, I see mr. Wu over there. Why don't we go and give our greetings?"
1. "Yes. Avery, we're—"
1. "You can leave the young ones here to talk. The two of us can say hello to mr. Wu ourselves."
2. "That's a good idea. We're going to see mr. Wu, so take good care of serena, avery."
3. "Understood."
1. "Miss wei, is there anything you'd like to talk about?"
2. "No."
1. Silence...
2. A very awkward jin
3. Serena I-don't-wanna-talk wei
4. "Why don't we have a seat over there?"
5. "Sure."
6. "Ahem"
1. "Wait, miss wei!"
1. "There's a loose piece of glitter in your hair. I think it came from your dress?"
1. "Really? Where?"
2. "Higher. Right by your ear."
1. "It might be hard to get out since it's in your hair."
2. "Let me help."
1. "Mr. Ji, ms ji, this way, please."
1. "Willow, it wasn't easy getting an invitation to this party, so you'd better behave nicely, understand?"
2. "Daddy's company will be yours, and we'll be absorbing serena's company too"
1. "In the near future."
2. "You'll have to start attending these social events more frequently..."
3. The plot should be moving right on track now.
1. "Mhm."
2. The heroine and male lead will meet and fall in mutual love...
1. Then I just have to wait for my ending, to die as the villainess.
2. I wonder how
1. I wonder how serena will end up digging out my scent gland in the future...
