Chapter 36: Ye Chuxiao, I won’t make things easy for you!
Lu Ziyi said apologetically, “I already have a dance partner. Miss Shui, you should find someone else.”
“Ziyi!” Shui Birong was still unwilling to give up. “Did Ye Chuxiao beg you to dance with her while crying? Is that why you agreed? You never used to dance!”
Shui Birong saw that Ye Chuxiao’s eyes were red, clearly having just cried!
Hmph, using tactics to get close to Ziyi again, Shui Birong felt angry at Ye Chuxiao in her heart, but she immediately put on a tearful appearance.
Who can’t cry? So Lu Ziyi falls for this! Shui Birong could immediately put on a show of crying her heart out!
Lu Ziyi cupped Ye Chuxiao’s cheek with his left hand, examining her closely, and asked, “Xiaoxiao, your eyelashes have come out. Are your eyes feeling any better?”
“Much better,” Ye Chuxiao replied cooperatively. “Thank you, Senior Student Ziyi, for helping me blow out my eyelash.”
Shui Birong breathed a sigh of relief. So Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao weren’t kissing just now; Lu Ziyi was helping this woman blow out an eyelash.
She had been so angry just now, making her rush over in high heels to stop them!
But Shui Birong was happy too soon. On second thought, if Ye Chuxiao wasn’t making Lu Ziyi soft-hearted by crying prettily, then her crying miserably would be useless.
“Let’s go inside, Xiaoxiao,” Lu Ziyi said gently. “Please dance with me later!”
“Okay, thank you for the invitation, Senior Student Ziyi. I’m very happy to dance with you.”
Lu Ziyi led Ye Chuxiao back into the villa’s hall.
Ye Chuxiao didn’t pull her hand away. She could clearly feel that Lu Ziyi disliked Shui Birong’s pestering, and he needed a dance partner to reject Shui Birong. She was willing to help him.
Just now, Senior Student Ziyi had extended his most powerful helping hand to her when she was at her most disheveled.
Shui Birong stood by the fountain, watching Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao walk forward shoulder-to-shoulder, looking very intimate. Her gaze gradually turned fierce, and she gritted her teeth, saying, “Ye Chuxiao, you just wait! How dare you compete with me for Ziyi? I won’t let you off easy!”
When Lu Ziyi and Ye Chuxiao returned to the hall, the protagonist of the evening, Zhang Jinxian, was already on the main stage giving a speech, thanking all the distinguished guests and friends for attending his twenty-fourth birthday party.
Zhang Jinxian also specially introduced the most honored guest of the evening, Miss Tang Jie’er, the daughter of the Chairman of the Tang Group.
Everyone was amazed. It was no wonder that this eye-catching cold beauty, the only daughter of Mr. Tang Hong, the Chairman of the Tang Group, came from a prestigious family, and her appearance was like that of a fairy, with an ethereal temperament.
According to tradition, the dance that evening should have been led by Zhang Jinxian and his fiancée, Qi Jiayue.
However, Zhang Jinxian and Qi Jiayue invited Tang Jie’er and her dance partner to lead the dance.
Tang Jie’er readily agreed and extended her hand to Lin Chusheng, who was by the main stage.
Lin Chusheng smiled slightly, walked to Tang Jie’er’s side with great spirit, bowed to her like a gentleman, and Tang Jie’er gently placed her hand into his.
The live band began playing cheerful and pleasant music. The two leading couples walked to the center of the dance floor and began to dance lightly and joyfully.
Everyone’s eyes followed them.
Zhang Jinxian and Qi Jiayue’s deep love for each other was already a well-known story.
Even more attention was drawn to Lin Chusheng and Tang Jie’er. It seemed they were wearing matching outfits tonight, and Lin Chusheng was actually favored by the eldest daughter of the Tang family!
However, it was not surprising. Lin Chusheng was also from a prestigious family, outstanding and extraordinary, a perfect match for Tang Jie’er, destined for each other.
Ye Chuxiao’s gaze also followed Lin Chusheng and Tang Jie’er.
Lu Ziyi still held Ye Chuxiao’s hand. He was worried she might be sad, so he tilted his head slightly and looked at her.
