"A party?" Qinghe was quite surprised to hear these two words.

She's started to accept the strange and unusual words that the young lady often uses!

For things like "shopping," "movies," and "cell phones," Qinghe felt like a headless fly, completely clueless.

However, she was not discouraged by this; instead, she was filled with curiosity about these new things.

"Miss, what is a 'gathering'?" Qinghe asked, blinking her big eyes.

Yun Juan smiled slightly and patiently explained, "A party is when everyone gathers together in one place to eat, chat, play games, and so on. In short, it's about having fun together."

Qinghe nodded as if she understood, but inwardly she thought to herself, "Isn't this just a banquet?"

"I see." Qinghe understood. She recalled that she had attended many banquets before, and it was indeed similar to what the young lady had said.

"Which party should we go to?" Qinghe asked again, mainly because she wanted to know who was hosting it so she could help her mistress choose an outfit!

"Alright, don't even mention it! This time it belongs to Her Majesty the Empress! If it were someone else's, I would have run away long ago," Yun Juan replied.

"The Empress? If it is the Empress, then there is no escaping it! Even the previous dynasty had to give this Empress some face, let alone women like them who live in seclusion!" Qinghe remembered that she had heard her madam talk about this Empress before, who was indeed a legendary figure in Tianyuan Kingdom.

“That’s right, there’s no escaping it, so we can only face it head-on!” Yun Juan said with a smile. “This banquet is sure to be very lively.”

Qinghe was also looking forward to it, after all, this was the first time her young lady had attended such an occasion, so she had to dress up beautifully!

"Miss, we need to dress up nicely so that we can outshine everyone else!" Qinghe was very thoughtful. She was afraid that her young mistress would be outshone by others on her first occasion. It was already an open secret in the palace that everyone was praising the powerful and belittling the weak!

"Don't worry, I'm all ready." Yun Juan smiled mysteriously.

She remembered that a new dress had recently been made at the Neon Fashion Shop, but it hadn't been mass-produced yet, and the promotion hadn't kept up!

It's like someone handing you a pillow while you're dozing off; this saves you most of the money, so why not?

“That’s perfect for wearing,” Yun Juan said smugly.

"Which piece of clothing? Is it in the closet?" Qinghe asked curiously.

"It's not here, you don't need to worry about it, you'll find out when the time comes." Yun Juan kept it a secret, then asked Qing He to prepare other things.

Yun Juan called Qing Miao over and asked her to go to the Ni Chang Fang shop to bring over the newly designed Chinese-style horse-face skirt so she could try it on!

She decided to wear this to the banquet! It would definitely attract everyone's attention, and then she could subtly hint that she bought it from the fashion boutique!

That will be a perfect opportunity for free publicity!

What are occasions with lots of women? They're all about making a fortune!

Qingmiao quickly retrieved the clothes, and Yun Juan put them on, twirled around in front of the mirror a few times, and was very satisfied.

This is a bright red horse-face skirt with exquisite white crane patterns embroidered on the hem. The upper body is a white long-sleeved shirt with gold thread trim on the collar and cuffs.

The overall look is both noble and elegant, which suits Yun Quan's temperament very well.

"Miss, you look so beautiful!" Qinghe exclaimed.

Yun Juan smiled and said, "Wear this to the banquet."

She believed she would attract everyone's attention at the banquet.

After all, this is a product of the 21st century, and she was sure it would attract the attention of these wealthy ladies!

Sigh... Yun Juan couldn't help but complain in her heart, "The end of every industry is sales!"

A few days later, the banquet was held as scheduled.

Yun Juan arrived at the banquet in her new clothes and instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.

She gracefully moved among the guests, and many people asked where her dresses were custom-made.

Yun Juan casually mentioned the Ni Chang Fang shop, which led everyone to head there to shop.

As a result, the Neon Fashion Shop became famous and its business flourished.

Everyone praised her beauty and temperament, and even the Empress couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.

All of this was observed by someone in the corner. A slight, almost imperceptible smile appeared on his lips.

At this moment, a handsome man walked towards Yun Juan. He was tall and had an extraordinary demeanor.

The man smiled and said to Yun Juan, "It's been a long time. Miss Yun, you look radiant today."

Yun Juan frowned. She didn't think she had ever seen this person before.

"And who are you?" Yun Juan asked in confusion.

“Miss Yun is so forgetful. I am Ji Shuyan. I met you at the shop last time! Miss Yun is truly a person of high status with a bad memory!” the man replied.

Yun Juan seemed to have some recollection of what he said, but she was still not quite sure.

"Excuse me! It's not that I'm forgetful! It's just that I've never been particularly fond of people I have no connection with! You remember me for so long after just one meeting, Mr. Ji! You're really petty!" Yun Juan had no interest in people who would suddenly try to strike up a conversation like this!

He's blocking me from selling products to wealthy ladies and making money; I really want to throw him out!

Ji Shuyan was not angry. Instead, he laughed heartily, "Miss Yun is indeed frank and lovely."

He paused, then continued, "However, I am not here today just to strike up a conversation. I have a request to make, and I wonder if Miss Yun could help me?"

Yun Juan looked at him with some surprise, thinking that this person was quite direct. "What is it? Just say it."

Ji Shuyan smiled slightly, "I would like to ask Miss Yun to be my dance partner and dance a song together."

His eyes were filled with sincerity and expectation. Yun Juan hesitated for a moment; she didn't want to agree, but she didn't want to refuse outright.

As she was pondering how to reply, another voice came.

"Yun Quan, may I invite you to dance?" Yun Quan turned around and saw that it was actually His Highness the Crown Prince.

Yun Juan really didn't want to deal with these two people; neither of them seemed very bright!

But there was no way to get rid of the two of them for the time being! So he had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure and went to the other side to invite a stranger!

The two stepped onto the dance floor and began to dance.

The man's dance was elegant and graceful, while Yun Quan's steps were light and agile; the two danced in perfect harmony.

"Sorry, I need to borrow you for a bit! I've been pestered, there's no other way, please forgive my intrusion!" Yun Juan apologized for dragging the other person over to dance!

To everyone's surprise, the other party didn't blame Yun Juan; instead, the tips of her ears turned slightly red!

"No...it's nothing...Miss, which family are you from?" The man dared not look Yun Juan in the eye, and could only keep looking down at his toes!
