Chapter 822: An encounter hidden in a high-class dance (Part 2)
"That... financial oligarch rooted in North America...?"
After hearing his answer, the woman next to him spoke in surprise and disbelief, looking quite surprised.
The male friend next to him glanced at the innermost layer of the hall, and asked in a low voice with nervousness and expectation in his eyes:
"Is it true that there are relevant agents attending tonight?"
"I don't know, but being able to cooperate with people at that level, even on the most basic level, has huge benefits."
They also took a look at the class that was not accessible to them at all, imagining how great it would be if they could get in touch with the people there and show their performance.
The young male noticed the figure who had just rejected him, and the anger of losing face in front of others flashed in his eyes.
Then he saw two figures in front of him out of the corner of his eye, a young man who didn't understand French and a nervous girl.
After a slight pause, he suddenly deliberately speeded up his speech and laughed softly:
"I believe it will at least allow some companies to purchase a batch of better 'hearing aids.'"
The social scene of fame and fortune is also an arena where conversational skills are used to gain face, status, and voice. He poured out the ridicule he had just suffered on people of a lower class than himself. He felt that he had regained his status in the circle.
The two people around him who heard this sentence looked at Fang Ran and Tang Bing strangely.
Tang Bing, who had been listening nervously and cautiously, heard this sentence that he didn't quite understand. It took him a while to sort out the meaning before he realized that this was a subtle and nasty joke to bully their weak French!
His expression suddenly froze as he held on, and he bit his lip angrily. He didn't know if this sentence should be translated.
While thinking about the last dance, although I didn't understand what they were saying, I noticed the look on Tang Bing's face next to me and felt an unfriendly atmosphere.
Fangran glanced at the young man, and a hint of boiling darkness quietly escaped from his lowered eyes.
At the same time, Melandu'er, who was surrounded by people not far away, also noticed his gaze just now, and saw that he was having a lively conversation with the two people around him, and deliberately ignored the other two, making the Chinese girl feel a little uncomfortable.
He stood there, suppressing his nervousness and embarrassment.
Boring move....
"I haven't introduced myself yet, but I am Henry Congreve, this is my friend Hardy Leacock, and this is Miss Cora Bessemer."
As if he just remembered it, he raised the champagne in his hand towards Fang Ran and the two of them. The French's arrogance was particularly obvious in him, and he waited for them to tell their names with a condescending chuckle.
After hearing his words, even if he was not happy, but thinking that tonight's action must be very important, knowing that Fangran could not understand French and could only rely on himself, Tang Bing bit his lip and tried to answer:
"I am..."
But when she saw Fangran suddenly stretched out his hand to block her.
"study..."
"Although I don't know where you were rejected and embarrassed, you want to find another place to regain your mental balance,"
Then when Tang Bing was surprised that he could understand French, and the other two people were surprised that he suddenly spoke,
The young man saw the black-haired young man in front of him speak slowly and softly, showing an air of superiority that seemed not to care about the occasion at all. He stretched out his hand to take the champagne in his hand, and slowly poured it on the ground.
He raised his eyes as if looking at a clown and sneered contemptuously.
"But swallow your ridiculous pride, idiot."
After waking up from the bottom of her heart as she recognized herself that night in London, Fangran listened to the cheering voice of the wanton child, not caring whether they understood or not, and raised the corner of his mouth directly at Tang Bing, who was already stunned.
"Let's go, Hulu."
After hearing what he just said, Tang Bing was obedient, and the young man who was completely stunned looked at the champagne on the ground in front of him in disbelief, his eyes slowly widened in shock,
The two people around him were also stunned by this scene. They really didn't expect that the other party would completely ignore the etiquette on such an occasion, trample on the unspoken rules of not breaking up in social circles, and directly fight back!
"etc!"
It wasn't until he saw Fang Ran taking Tang Bing that he was about to turn around and leave that Henry Congreve realized that even though he didn't understand what the other party had just said, his contemptuous and mocking look and the fact that he poured his champagne directly at his feet
action,
It's like a slap in the face that has penetrated your own mind, and slapped you hard in the most embarrassing place!
Anger rose on his face, and he grabbed Fangran's arm and tried to pull him back, but found that he couldn't hold him at all. The figure of the black-haired young man in front of him was as stable as a rock, but he was staggered instead.
One step forward!
"Stop! It's so unreasonable and arrogant! You must apologize to me for your actions!!!"
Feeling the weird look in the eyes of the two people around him, and knowing that he had to save his face no matter what, he shouted in a raised voice that could be heard nearby.
This voice mixed with angry words was particularly strange in the ball hall where soothing music was playing, and it immediately attracted the attention of people nearby.
Many people looked at the source of the sound. When they saw the Chinese face of the black-haired young man, they whispered in surprise. A small commotion spread in the hall.
At the same time, on the innermost floor of the ball hall,
In the area where the highest-status people at this ball were, several vaguely majestic figures were surrounding a formal and elegant woman in a black evening dress.
He spoke with an equal attitude and chuckled, knowing clearly that the seemingly 'young' woman in front of him was the agent of the new controller of the financial empire in Europe. This identity alone deserved their serious treatment.
"Heh...it seems like there's a lot of excitement among the young people there."
I also noticed some commotion outside. A man who looked to be in his fifties but still upright raised his glass and chuckled, while the others laughed knowingly. Given their status, it was only worthy of a smile.
,
Only the woman in the black evening dress was stunned when she saw the situation clearly!
"Sorry, everyone, I'll excuse you for a moment!"
Then she apologized and walked away quickly, causing several people around her to look at her strangely, as if she was thinking of something urgent.
The sound of her heels hitting the floor tiles was clear and continuous, as if she was hiding her eagerness. Everyone else in the ball hall also noticed her actions in surprise.
After subconsciously getting out of the way, she discovered that the direction she was going was actually where the quarrel was taking place!
She was surprised in her heart that the big shot at the innermost level who was still the center of the topic suddenly interfered in the affairs of the young people. Seeing her figure passing by quickly, Melandu'er was also slightly surprised in her eyes.
Then at the moment no one expected,
She walked quickly towards the black-haired young man and spoke with respect and incredible surprise:
