Chapter 625: Xia Ruya’s Coming-Of-Age Ceremony
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Ruya’s coming-of-age ceremony was held three days after Wen Xinya’s.
The venue of Xia Ruya’s coming-of-age ceremony was a ballroom in Shangri-La. It was extremely lavish as well because the Wen Family was in charge of organizing it.
Due to the fact that Xia Ruya was a member of the Zhishan Club, the invited guests were mostly elite businessmen and socialites of the upper-cla.s.s society.
Xia Ruya’s coming-of-age ceremony paled in comparison to Wen Xinya’s grand and lavish one. Everyone would definitely compare the two because of the feud between them. No matter how extravagant Xia Ruya’s coming-of-age ceremony was, it couldn’t hide the fact that everyone was just gloating.
Xia Ruya put on a Korean style hairpin in her hair as well as a pink diamond-embellished tiara, accompanied with a pink tutu dress on which there were also lots of diamonds. She wore a pair of white calf-length boots and a set of pink jewelry, appearing youthful and beautiful.
Her outfit and accessories could not compare to Wen Xinya’s at all and hence, she had no choice but to do her best and select a different style, in hopes of giving others a fresh look.
Xia Ruxue walked towards Xia Ruya and looked at her in envy. “Ruya, you’re so beautiful. You’ll definitely become the center of attention tonight.”
Previously, Xia Ruxue had merely invited some close friends and family friends to her coming-of-age ceremony. Although it was not poorly organized, it was nowhere as lavish or extravagant as Xia Ruya’s. She did not attend Wen Xinya’s coming-of-age ceremony. However, she knew that it must have been opulent and beyond her imagination, especially since the Wen Family was on a whole different level. Hence, she was certain that Xia Ruya’s coming-of-age ceremony would be similar.
Xia Ruyae looked at her smilingly and asked, “Ruxue, what’s the matter?”
Her coming-of-age ceremony was destined to be inferior to Wen Xinya’s. How was she supposed to be the center of attention? Although Xia Ruya had indeed considered canceling her coming-of-age ceremony, she could not afford to embarra.s.s herself. She would rather die in glory than continue living pathetically.
Xia Ruxue hurriedly said, “I almost forgot to tell you. Grandpa and Father are looking for you.”
A sullen expression formed on Xia Ruya’s face.
The Xia Family had agreed to help Xia Ruya organize her coming-of-age ceremony, only because she was a member of the Zhishan Club, and they wanted to use her connections to blend in with the upper-cla.s.s society. Not to mention, the Wen Family had also decided to help her. The Xia Family would definitely not give up such a chance.
She scanned her surroundings in the banquet hall and finally glanced at Old Mr. Xia and Xia Haolin. Ever since the guests entered, the two had been walking around the banquet hall and socializing with the wealthy and prestigious and influential members of the upper-cla.s.s society.
Xia Ruya was extremely embarra.s.sed by their disgraceful and petty behavior, and she felt that they were mocking her in secret.
Chen Linfang glared at Xia Ruya and rebuked. “Xia Ruya, you’ve got some guts now, don’t you!?! Your father and grandfather asked to see you and yet, you just ignored their request. Listen up… the Xia Family is the reason that you can hold such a lavish coming-of-age ceremony. The Xia Family gave you the glory that you’re enjoying now. We’ve spent so much money on this coming-of-age ceremony. You… should learn to be grateful.”
