"Stop it, I don't want to be dismembered by a group of jealous women." Bai Tang stepped back two paces, distancing herself from Kate.
Kate smiled ingratiatingly, "With your Combat Power being so high, these women are no match for you."
"Even so, I have no interest in being a target!" Bai Tang huffed. "If you use me as a shield again, our friendship is over."
"Alright, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again," Kate quickly pleaded. Sigh, he only thought of using Bai Tang as a shield because his mother and a group of women were pressuring him. His mother was urging him to get married and had sent a bunch of women to bother him. He had no choice but to think of Bai Tang as a shield, but unfortunately, Bai Tang hated trouble. He couldn't afford to anger her; ruining their friendship meant he had to abandon that idea.
"Third Brother!" A beautiful girl rushed up behind Kate. "How did you get out? Oh, you're here to meet your girlfriend! Your girlfriend is quite pretty; no wonder you're being so attentive."
"I'm not his girlfriend!" Bai Tang quickly clarified, not wanting the girl to misunderstand.
Kate pulled his cousin off his back. "Lydia, don't be silly. Bai Tang is my good friend; our friendship is purely platonic."
"Bai Tang, is she the one who saved you?" The girl put away her casual demeanor and adopted a serious expression as she bowed her head toward Bai Tang. "Thank you for saving my Third Brother."
"No need to thank me," Bai Tang said, her impression of the girl increasing tenfold.
The girl also had a good impression of Bai Tang and felt very close to the person who saved her brother.
"Sister Bai, you're so beautiful!" The girl's gaze lingered on the gifts Bai Tang had brought, filled with admiration and envy.
Bai Tang smiled, "Your clothes are prettier than mine, right?"
The girl hurriedly replied, "Sister Bai is also very beautiful!"
"Isn't the dress the most beautiful thing?"
The girl felt a bit shy.
"Sister Bai, where did you buy your dress?" The girl was truly amazed by the dress that Bai Tang was wearing; it was so beautiful that she wanted one for herself.
"I bought this dress on a remote and underdeveloped planet during my interstellar adventure."
"Where is that planet?" the girl asked eagerly.
Bai Tang shook her head. "That planet is extremely remote and has a layer of Cosmic Dust that blocks signals from the outside. You can't find its coordinates on the interstellar map. I stumbled upon that planet, but after leaving, I could never find my way back."
"Really?" The girl lowered her head, feeling very disappointed and wishing she could have a beautiful dress like Bai Tang's.
"Happy birthday! This is your birthday gift!" Bai Tang took out the gift she had prepared for the girl.
"Thank you." The girl accepted the gift, still feeling a bit down.
"Don't you want to open it? If you don't like it, I can help you exchange it for something else."
"Huh?" The girl was confused but seemed tempted to open the gift box. "Ah—"
She exclaimed in surprise, then realized her outburst was inappropriate and quickly closed her mouth. Her round eyes glanced around and noticed her cousin standing beside her, relieved that no one else had seen her slip-up—The Ye Family brothers had greeted Kate before heading to visit the elders of the Sean Family. The elders of the Sean Family were not in this house but were entertaining the older generation in another large house two hundred meters away, while this house belonged to the younger people.
The girl stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "Sister Bai, you are so wonderful! I really love your gift."
Bai Tang smiled and asked, "Do you want to try it on?"
"Yes, yes!" The girl nodded eagerly and pulled Bai Tang back to her room.
"I'll help you!" Seeing the girl clumsily struggling, Bai Tang stepped forward. The clothes she was wearing and the gift she had given the girl were both women's outfits bought from the Red Mansion World. Wearing the cumbersome ancient attire was a huge and difficult task for a girl from the Future World. Several times, the girl got tangled up in her skirts and sleeves.
Bai Tang suppressed her laughter as she freed the girl's hands and feet, helping her put on each piece of clothing.
"I'll help you with your hair!" After dressing the girl, Bai Tang instinctively picked up a comb.
"Is that really me in the mirror?" The girl widened her eyes, staring at the beautiful lady in the mirror who looked like a fairy had descended, almost unable to believe that person was herself.
"Of course, beautiful young lady," Bai Tang said, satisfied as she admired the dressed-up girl, feeling proud of her taste and skills.
"Are you two beauties ready yet?" Kate knocked on the door and urged them. "Lydia, the guests are all waiting for the Birthday Star to cut the cake!"
"We're ready." Bai Tang opened the door and threw a flirtatious glance at Kate. "Handsome, don't blink; the moment of miracles is about to arrive."
"..." Kate (╯□╰), "What is this beautiful lady's name?"
The girl arrogantly extended her right hand and said, "I allow you to kiss my hand. Handsome, take me out to meet the guests!"
"Yes, beautiful princess!"
The banquet, primarily for young people, mostly serves the purpose of matchmaking. Every young lady attending the event is dressed to the nines, wearing outfits designed by renowned designers, each piece worth as much as a common family's annual expenses. The ladies all believe their dresses are the most beautiful, and none are willing to concede to the others. However, at this moment, they reach a consensus: truly, she is the sister of the Sean Family and the Birthday Star; where did she get that dress?
The Birthday Star slowly descended from upstairs under the guidance of her handsome Third Brother, instantly capturing everyone's attention upon her entrance.
She wore a pink high-waisted dress adorned with peach blossoms in a rosy hue, layered with a white sheer robe that flowed elegantly. A silver belt accentuated her slim waist, and a piece of soft jade hung gently. Her long black hair was styled in an attractive updo secured with a green jade hairpin, enhancing her dignified elegance. Her finely drawn brows complemented her delicate makeup, and her lips seemed to hold pearls, with a hint of peach blossom yellow on her forehead.
Everyone in the hall was mesmerized; it was as if a fairy had stepped out of a dream—truly the sister of the Sean Family and not some noble lady from thousands of years ago who had wandered into the wrong time.
Silence enveloped the hall, broken only by the soothing music echoing above.
A burst of laughter shattered this moment of enchantment.
"Haha, Lydia, you can't just shine alone; even Big Brother and Second Sister didn't recognize you!" Kate's laughter prompted Kent and Furia Sean to approach with displeasure.
"Three, it's not that Big Brother and I didn't recognize our sister; we were just taken aback by her appearance. Who knew our little pepper had such a ladylike side?"
