The chaperon looked at what she ordered and hesitated over whether she should say something. However, she looked at her expression and chose to keep quiet in the end.
Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to rest and sent the chaperon out.
The chaperon nodded and said, "I'll be at the door then. If Miss Mu has any requests, you can call upon me at any moment."
"The door? It's not necessary. You should go and rest too; I'll look for you if I need you." Mu Xiaoxiao was shocked. She didn't have to serve her so thoroughly.
The chaperon smiled gently. She seemed to understand what Mu Xiaoxiao was thinking and said, "It's not troublesome. It's a part of my job."
Mu Xiaoxiao waved her away. "There's really no need. I'm not used to being waited on by other people, and I don't have any requests. You should go and rest; I'll be fine on my own."
The chaperon could only listen to her wishes and left.
Mu Xiaoxiao lay on the sofa and used the iPad to watch variety shows. The cruise even had WiFi, which made it very comfortable.
The dishes arrived in less than 20 minutes.
After Mu Xiaoxiao finished her food, she looked out of the window at the night sky. It was already dark outside. Since they were at sea, she should be able to see some stars if she went out on the deck, right?
She actually knew how to entertain herself and didn't need the constant company of people.
She stood up and was about to leave the room when she heard the doorbell ring.
Who was it?
Mu Xiaoxiao walked over and looked through the peephole before opening the door. There was a male service assistant outside, and in his hands was a box.
"Miss Mu, this is your attire for the ceremony."
"Okay." Mu Xiaoxiao received it awkwardly. Just as she wanted to ask what the attire was for, the man had already left.
Oh yeah, she suddenly recalled that William had told her that there was going to be an auction that night, and he had promised to bring her out to play.
So was this the attire she was supposed to wear to the auction?
Mu Xiaoxiao carried the box into the room. When she opened it, there was a card resting on the clothes.
She opened the card. There was a line of words on it stating that there was going to be a masked ball by the outdoor pool on the top deck of the cruise shop.
A masked ball?
Mu Xiaoxiao's interest was piqued. She found an exquisite mask inside the box. It seemed to sparkle brightly with jewels, and it even had a feather on it.
She held up the clothes from the box and discovered that it was a seductively charming dress. It was in an exquisitely gorgeous and sexy shade of rose red, and it had a low neckline.
Mu Xiaoxiao was puzzled. She didn't wear clothes of this color usually. Why did William sent her such a piece?
Did he do it on purpose?
However… Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the low V-neckline disgustedly and tugged at it. With such a low V-neckline, she wondered how much chest she would be showing.
No way, she wasn't going to wear this!
Even though she was well-endowed, she wasn't like the girls in America who liked to show off their assets.
Such a dress was, in America, quite ubiquitous. It was really common to see American girls dress like this on the streets.
However, Mu Xiaoxiao was a conservative girl, and to show off like that was too much for her.
She looked down at the dress she was wearing and realized that it did look like an appropriate piece to wear.
Okay, she wasn't going to change; she was going to wear this to the ball!
…
Mu Xiaoxiao arrived punctually at 8 o'clock by the poolside on the top deck of the cruise. The lighting was very romantic and suggestive, and she could hear the laughter of both boys and girls.
It looked like this ball was specially organized for the younger generation.
Mu Xiaoxiao rearranged the mask on her face. When she was certain that she wouldn't be recognized, she entered the venue.
