The Qiao family had not been excluded from Yun Xi's invitation as they were the newly crowned members of the big four wealthiest families. Though the arrival of the letter had thrown Qiao Ximin into disarray, she reasoned that this was her chance to show off her newfound status.
Yun Xi eyed the clock that was in the guest hall. There was still half an hour until the auction. Qiao Ximin had arrived at the most appropriate time.
Qiao Ximin had decided to attend the auction to maintain the Qiao family's image. If she hadn't come, it could have been an embarrassment for the Qiao family. lf she had arrived any earlier, she would have seemed too desperate. Although she had not earned the title of the first-class socialite, she was still a daughter of the big four wealthiest families, and she would not bow to a nobody.
