Su Zhiyu extended his right arm like a gentleman and invited Han Xiaotao to go downstairs with him. Jin Enzhe walked to Xiaotao's right side with his hands behind his back, like a guarding knight.
Han Xiaotao stepped on her high heels with some restraint, barely able to avoid falling over. However, it was the first time she tried such a short dress, and she couldn't get used to it, so she often pulled the hem of the skirt with her hands.
"What did I teach you just now?" Su Zhiyu lowered his voice and said.
Han Xiaotao replied aggrievedly: "This skirt is too short."
"Is this still short?" Su Zhiyu looked helpless. For a young man like him who hangs out in nightclubs, this should be called a "long skirt." However, since it was Han Xiaotao's first time to dress like this, he tolerated it. After all,
She can be regarded as a beauty standing next to her now. If she adds some ladylike temperament, she would be truly extraordinary. Su Zhiyu could only comfort herself in this way, which made Jin Enzhe laugh for a while.
After finally delivering Han Xiaotao safely to Cui Minhao under the gaze of everyone, Su Zhiyu breathed a sigh of relief. He looked away casually and suddenly saw a pair of fiery eyes. After accidentally looking at him, he immediately
Moved to another direction. Although the other person kept his head down when delivering the clothes, Su Zhiyu still recognized her from her dress and appearance. He calmly turned his head away, picked up a glass of red wine, and walked elsewhere.
Cui Minhao held Han Xiaotao's hand, looked him up and down, and said with a mischievous smile: "It really depends on the clothes. It feels like he is not the same person anymore."
"It looks like this, how could it be different?" Han Xiaotao rolled her eyes at him and pouted.
"Hey, you'd better stop talking. You're so rude and don't match your appearance at all." Cui Minhao teased her.
"It's not like I want to dress myself like this." Han Xiaotao looked at Cui Minhao dissatisfied. This guy didn't care about the consequences of everything he did, and that's why he got into so many things. Why did he drag her back to his house for no reason?
Han Xiaotao didn't want to become everyone's laughing stock, and she had to make them dress up to attend this Laoshizi cocktail party that had nothing to do with her.
"Then just think it's for me." Cui Minhao said in a tentative tone, glancing at his mother.
Han Xiaotao seemed to feel a few needle-like eyes coming from that direction, pricking her body, full of contempt and resentment, so that she did not dare to look back, so she could only put her hand into Cui Minhao's palm. His palm
It was warm and soft like cotton, wrapping her sweaty hands. Han Xiaotao took a few deep breaths and tried to coordinate her waist, but no matter how she adjusted her legs, her legs seemed to be out of control.
He couldn't keep up with Min Hao's rhythm. In addition, Min Hao screamed when his foot was stepped on, making Han Xiaotao even more at a loss.
"Han Xiaotao, your feet are almost falling off!" Cui Minhao complained dissatisfied.
"Who invented dancing like this?" Han Xiaotao puffed up his cheeks and said angrily.
"Have you ever learned it?" Cui Minhao stared at Han Xiaotao and said. Is it because she is too stupid to learn such a simple dance step? Forget it if it is not elegant enough, what's wrong with always stepping on her feet?
"Do you think they are all like you, growing up in an aristocratic school?" Han Xiaotao lowered his head, not knowing how to move his feet.
Only then did Cui Minhao realize that he seemed to be in trouble with Han Xiaotao, but he was just trying to save face in front of his mother, and Han Xiaotao had done nothing wrong.
Mrs. Cui sneered and said to her side: "An ugly duckling is an ugly duckling. Even if it were replaced by a white swan's feathers, it would not be able to hide the true nature of a village girl."
As soon as Li Mengyun found out it was Han Xiaotao, she was simmering with anger in her heart. After hearing Mrs. Cui's words, she calmed down a little. She bit her lip and glared at Han Xiaotao. She didn't expect that this wild girl was quite dressed up.
She is beautiful, but this manner and etiquette cannot be learned by changing clothes. At this point, she can still have absolute confidence. She has practiced dancing since she was a child, and she is a well-deserved dancequeen in this aspect.
"Mengyun, why don't you go and dance a song?" Mrs. Cui turned around and looked at Li Mengyun, smiling meaningfully at her.
Li Mengyun immediately understood what Mrs. Cui meant, put down her wine glass, and stepped onto the dance floor with her male partner to dance, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Li Mengyun wore a white fringed skirt, and when she danced, it looked like a snowflake blooming, making all the women excited.
Lost its luster.
Han Xiaotao also stopped and stared blankly at Li Mengyun, who was like a white swan. Her dark eyes flashed with some disappointment. No matter how she changed her appearance, some things could not be changed since she was born. This, she had to admit,
Because there is no way to disguise it.
Su Zhiyu and Jin Enzhe looked at Min Hao in silence. They both knew that Mrs. Cui intended to make Li Mengyun the daughter-in-law of the Cui family. This scene was basically a battle between two parties. It was obvious that Han Xiaotao had been completely defeated. They could not think of any way to deal with this.
Come to rescue.
Mrs. Cui looked at it with great interest, with a meaningful smile on her lips. Only a girl who can go to the hall in this way is worthy of the Cui family.
"My mother is trying to make Xiao Tao look embarrassed." Huai Jin also sighed and said to Jin Enzhe. And her mother was undoubtedly very successful. It seems that she really intended to use Min Hao and Li Mengyun's marriage to increase the company's business.
Bonus points. Huaijin felt a little worried in her heart.
The dance floor was filled with lights, and Bai Ziling, who had been watching with cold eyes, seemed to lose his composure. He drank the champagne in the glass in one gulp, put his right hand into his trouser pocket, and walked towards Han Xiaotao. As the son of the first consortium, plus
With an aura as heroic as that of a CPG, Bai Ziling's every move was naturally the focus of the scene. Especially all kinds of ambitious businessmen, including the Cui family. As soon as he moved around, Mrs. Cui's eyes immediately followed him.
Cui Minhao seemed to detect a warning from Zhiyu's eyes. He turned around and saw Bai Ziling had already walked up to him. For Su Zhiyu, he didn't have much contact with Bai Ziling, but the look in his eyes revealed that he was different from his peers.
The depth of the person made people feel inexplicably cold. Of course Cui Minhao knew Bai Ziling better, so he subconsciously took a step forward and blocked Han Xiaotao behind him.
Bai Ziling didn't seem to mind, and a smile appeared on his lips. "Miss Han." Unexpectedly, he bowed elegantly in front of Han Xiaotao in front of everyone, then raised his head and looked at her with playful eyes.
Han Xiaotao looked surprised, as if he had known that she would have such a reaction. He still said calmly and calmly: "It seems that you left something behind during our hasty farewell last time. I had always planned to visit in person, but I was busy with family matters.
So I stranded it. I met you here today, and it’s time to return it to its original owner.”
Confusion flashed in Han Xiaotao's eyes. How could her things end up with Bai Ziling?
Cui Minhao turned to look at Han Xiaotao, how could this girl accidentally lose something without realizing it? The worst thing is to let that guy Bai Ziling get it!
Bai Ziling lowered his head, stretched out his right hand that was in his trouser pocket, holding a beautifully wrapped gift box, and handed it to Han Xiaotao.
"Me?" Han Xiaotao seemed to have not yet reacted. Is it really for her? Her thing?
Bai Ziling nodded, answering her question, and motioned for her to open it.
Han Xiaotao opened the gift box hesitantly, and the dazzling light of the gemstone instantly illuminated a pool of clear water in her eyes. The peach blossom pendant lying quietly on the cushion, like a luminous pearl shining brightly in the dark night, immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"The pink heart gemstone is the only one in the world!" The knowledgeable girl screamed infatuatedly.
"This...this is..." Han Xiaotao was speechless for a moment. This was the necklace she saw at Sapphire Department Store that day. Bai Ziling went crazy and bought it. Did he really want to give it to her? At that time, it was just to help him out, but what does it mean now?
?
"A unique gem must be matched with a unique woman. In my eyes, no other woman is worthy of it except you. So after thinking about it, I can only take the liberty to offer it. I hope you can accept my wishes.
Bai Ziling said with a smile, glancing at Cui Minhao from the corner of his eye.
The two men were about the same height, and their gazes were like alternating currents flying through the air, giving off the burning aura.
Mrs. Cui was stunned on the spot, looking at Bai Ziling and Han Xiaotao in front of him with wide eyes.
"This..." Han Xiaotao shook her head involuntarily. She wouldn't dare take such a precious thing even if I beat her to death! Although she was a little embarrassed, she still had to bite the bullet and said, "I'm afraid I can't accept this."
Cui Minhao took the box more directly, closed it, stuffed it back into Bai Ziling's hand, and said, "I accept Master Bai's heartfelt wishes on her behalf. I don't think such an expensive gift is necessary if we are just ordinary friends."
Bai Ziling said with a smile: "Flowers match beauty, this has always been the truth. This necklace can be considered to match her dress today, I think it must be hers. If Miss Han insists on refusing, then I can only throw it away.
To avoid blasphemy.”
Han Xiaotao was stunned - was this a threat? But what would be the loss to her by spending his own money? Or would she feel embarrassed if Bai Ziling took it? Why is this guy always so crazy and unpredictable in his words and actions?
through.
Bai Ziling looked at Cui Minhao again and said: "Since you can't think everything over for her, why not let others fill the gap? Young Master Cui Minhao is still as selfish as before."
Cui Minhao's back stiffened and he stared at Bai Ziling, but those words echoed in his ears, as if a blunt instrument had hit his heart, making him feel sour. If he couldn't think things through for her, why would he insist on letting her make a fool of himself?
Cui Minhao, you are such a selfish person!
Bai Ziling took out the necklace and put it on Han Xiaotao without any explanation, admiring his icing on the cake with great satisfaction.
"Bai Ziling..." Han Xiaotao struggled with how to refuse. The gem was in the middle of her collarbone, like a hot iron.
"If you feel guilty, why don't you dance with me as compensation?" Bai Ziling said with a smile. A gem for a dance is as valuable to Bai Ziling as fifty cents for a cabbage.
.
"I..." Han Xiaotao grabbed the hem of her skirt and looked at Cui Minhao. If she didn't agree, it would be very rude; if she agreed, Minhao would have random thoughts. In this case, she didn't know what to do.
"Young Master Bai kindly invites you, Xiaotao, please don't refuse." Su Zhiyu said at the right time. Since Han Xiaotao can't make up his mind, why not come and help him. Although he has to consider the face of his good friend, he must break the deadlock first.
What's more, everyone has seen Han Xiaotao's dancing. Is this Bai Ziling really not afraid of ruining her family's reputation?
Bai Ziling smiled, and before Han Xiaotao could answer, he bent down and took off her shoes.
Han Xiaotao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously hid behind him. Bai Ziling grabbed her arm, and Han Xiaotao, who was already light in weight, rose straight off the ground. When she came to her senses again, her bare feet had already stepped on him.
On their feet, the two people jumped gracefully onto the dance floor.
