Just when he was feeling puzzled, a few silhouettes walked towards him from the side.
Yang Cheng turned around and saw that they were people he knew. Yuan Hewei, Yang Jieyu and her husband, as well as Zhonghai's Municipal Committee Secretary, Fang Zhongping.
Seeing Yang Jieyu, Yang Cheng still felt a little strange. There were some things that the two didn't say, but they weren't stupid. They could roughly guess what was going on even if they didn't say it. However, the more plausible it was, the more confusing it was, the more neither of them dared to say it.
Fang Zhongping, on the other hand, looked gloomy. When he saw Yang Cheng, he forced a smile, but his gaze seemed to be following the direction where Tang Wan left.
Yang Cheng was slightly surprised. Could Fang Zhongping be one of Tang Wan's pursuers? However, he didn't think too much about it, because he had enough troubles tonight.
"I didn't expect you to be here, and I didn't expect you to be General Lin's husband. You've really surprised us," Yuan Hewei said with a smile.
The Yuan clan was the biggest clan in Zhonghai. Attending the Liu clan's banquet was obviously a friendly gesture to show respect to the Liu clan.
Yang Cheng could accept this humble and decisive clan master, who was obviously much better than Liu Kangbai. He asked, "How's Yuan Ye's injury?"
Yuan Hewei laughed and said, "That kid is recuperating at home every day. He's almost recovered. The doctor said that his body is much healthier than before, but he has put on some weight."
Yang Cheng wasn't surprised. He didn't lose his Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture to Yuan Ye for nothing.
"Yang Cheng, do you know Tang Wan?" Fang Zhongping suddenly asked.
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then he nodded his head and said, "Yeah, but we haven't seen each other many times."
Fang Zhongping seemed to have come to a realization and heaved a sigh of relief.
Yuan Hewei and Yang Jieyu had different expressions on their faces, but they didn't say anything.
Yang Jieyu thought of something. With a kind expression, she said to Yang Chen, "I've met your wife just now. She's really a beauty. Even us women can't get jealous of her. However, she doesn't seem to be in a good mood. Did you fight with her?"
Yang Cheng wasn't used to Yang Jieyu's intimate tone, so he nodded his head. "It's a small conflict, but it's my problem."
"She's with the Cai sisters, so she should be fine. But Yang Cheng, it's not that I want to criticize you, but a husband and wife should be more tolerant of each other. Your wife manages such a big international company, so it's inevitable that she has a temper. But since she married you, she will always like you. You have to be more considerate of her. "
Seeing that Yang Jieyu was acting as a peacemaker, Yang Cheng smiled bitterly in his heart. How could outsiders know that there were so many things between him and Lin Ruoxi? He could only accept it humbly for the time being.
Yang Jieyu smiled and sighed, "I heard from Little Ye that you already have a family, so we were curious about your wife. But now, it seems that you're living a better life than we imagined. You're so outstanding, and you have such a wife. If you have a child in the future, it will definitely be a happy life. "
Child … Yang Cheng listened to Yang Jieyu's description. It seemed like a beautiful blueprint, but was it possible for him and Lin Ruoxi? After today's party ended, they would probably be strangers again when they returned home.
I shouldn't have come to this kind of evening party. It's really one wave after another.
Yang Jieyu seemed to be emotional as she said, "It's a pity that I heard that your parents aren't around. If your elders were here, I believe they would be proud and happy for you guys."
When he said that, Yuan Hewei unconsciously pulled his wife's hand, hinting for Yang Jieyu to stop talking.
Yang Jieyu helplessly shut her mouth. She was also a little embarrassed.
Yang Cheng faintly smiled and didn't mind it too much.
In the eyes of the surrounding people, this scene wasn't as simple as just a casual chat.
Originally, they thought that Yang Cheng only attended the party because of Lin Ruoxi. They didn't expect him to know Tang Wan.
Not only did he know Tang Wan, but he also seemed to have a close relationship with the couple from the biggest family in Zhonghai, the Yuan Family. What's more, Secretary Fang from the Fang Family even talked to him in a friendly manner.
These three people were much more important than Liu Kangbai from the Liu Family, especially since many people knew that Yang Jieyu had a strong background in Beijing. At this moment, when they saw her talking to Yang Cheng so long-winded, they couldn't help but speculate. Could it be that … this lucky guy called Yang Cheng was one of the members from a big family in Beijing who hid their identity?
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi, Choi Yeon, and Cai Ning, who were already at a corner of the hall, realized that Yang Cheng was chatting with Yuan Hewei, his wife, and Fang Zhongping. They were also a little surprised. Cai Ning was still fine as she knew some inside information, but Lin Ruoxi and Choi Yeon didn't expect Yang Cheng to be friends with people of that level.
Lin Ruoxi had mixed feelings. She brought Yang Cheng here to let him get to know more people of the upper class. She didn't expect him to not only be friends with Yuan Ye from the Yuan Family, but also with Yuan Hewei, his wife, and Fang Zhongping. However, Yang Cheng had never mentioned these things to her.
She even foolishly wanted to help him gain a foothold in Zhonghai. It seemed like he had been mocking her actions in his heart …
Yang Cheng didn't know that he had suddenly become the focus of the evening party, and that Lin Ruoxi's resentment towards him had increased by another level. At this moment, Yuan Hewei said, "Just now, it seemed like Liu Kangbai didn't like you. If he really dares to do anything and needs our help, just let us know. We are indebted to you, so we don't wish for anything to happen to you."
I really hope that he dares to do something, Yang Cheng thought and replied, "I understand, thank you."
After chatting for a while, the evening party entered the dancing stage.
Dazzling lights began to flow on the dance floor of the entire hall. Not far away from the dance floor, the accompaniment band that was specially invited from Vienna began to play a melodious waltz tune.
Many men and women of all ages began to spread out on the dance floor with their own dance partners and began to dance with different steps.
After Yuan Hewei invited Yang Jieyu in a gentlemanly manner, the couple went down the dance floor and began to dance gracefully.
Fang Zhongping looked at them enviously and sighed faintly. He walked to the corner of the dance floor and sat down silently.
Yang Cheng didn't plan to dance either. Just when he was about to find a place to drink, he suddenly saw Liu Yun appear at the corner of the dance floor where Lin Ruoxi and the Cai sisters were standing!
Yang Cheng frowned. He knew that something bad was about to happen, so he walked over.
At the same time, Liu Yun stretched out his arm and made a standard dance invitation gesture. He showed a handsome smile to Lin Ruoxi. "Miss Lin, as the host tonight, may I have the honor to invite you for the first dance?"
Liu Yun's actions were obviously provoking Yang Cheng. Just now, he instigated Lin Ruoxi and Yang Cheng to separate unhappily. Now that he had the home advantage, he naturally came to invite Lin Ruoxi for a dance.
Lin Ruoxi was also in a dilemma. Of course, she didn't want to dance with this man. She wasn't stupid. She knew that Liu Yun had the intention of deliberately making Yang Cheng lose face.
However, Liu Yun was the only son of the Liu family and the host of tonight's ball. In such an occasion, there was nothing wrong with his status or etiquette to invite her for a dance. She couldn't say that she didn't know how to dance, nor did she have a reasonable reason to reject him. What should she do?
Seeing that Lin Ruoxi was in a dilemma, Choi Yeon said to Liu Yun, "Young Master Liu, Ruoxi doesn't like to dance. You should ask someone else."
Liu Yun still smiled gently. "Chief Cai, my invitation is very sincere. I hope that you won't interfere."
Cai Ning pulled her sister's hand to stop Choi Yeon from saying anything. After all, this involved the relationship between the Cai and Liu families. It wasn't appropriate for her to interfere without reason.
"Hey, where did you come from? As her husband, I haven't even danced with her yet. What are you doing? "
At this moment, Yang Cheng stood in front of Lin Ruoxi and said to Liu Yun.
Lin Ruoxi and the Cai sisters were shocked to see Yang Chen walking towards them all of a sudden. Their expressions were complicated.
Liu Yun sneered. "Is that so? Mr. Yang hasn't danced yet. I thought Mr. Yang was going to dance with Miss Tang. Miss Tang is also a rare beauty. Mr. Yang can be said to have a lot of luck with women."
Yang Cheng laughed weirdly. "Are you jealous or admiring me? Why do you think that as long as a woman appears around me, she will be related to me?"
"Isn't that the case?" Liu Yun said disdainfully.
Yang Cheng pointed at the Cai sisters behind him. "What about them? Chief Cai has arrested me many times."
"Stinky Yang Cheng! Why are you pointing at us?! Do you want to die?! "Choi Yeon's pretty face turned red as if her tail had been stepped on.
Although she knew that Yang Cheng was bickering with Liu Yun, she still felt a little strange in her heart.
Liu Yun couldn't say anything. After all, the Cai sisters were not ordinary women. He could only casually smile and say, "I was wrong. At least there are some exceptions. But Mr. Yang, I don't think Miss Lin will be willing to dance with you, her husband."
Yang Cheng expressionlessly turned around and looked at the silent Lin Ruoxi. Their eyes met and it seemed that there was an endless amount of complicated thoughts going through their minds.
Suddenly, Yang Cheng took three steps back and raised his arms. He got up and spun around, taking the standard steps of the waltz. After a few well-practiced steps, he bent down in front of Lin Ruoxi and stretched out his arm, making a perfect "dance invitation" gesture.
Not only Liu Yun, who was prepared to watch a good show, but even the Cai sisters were in disbelief.
This was the first time in her life that Lin Ruoxi's mind went blank in public. She never imagined that Yang Cheng would really invite her to dance. What surprised her even more was that this mutton skewer seller really knew how to dance!
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi shyly felt her heart palpitate.
After a few seconds of silence, Lin Ruoxi raised her slender hand and placed it in Yang Cheng's.
"It's very impolite to refuse. I don't want to be an uncultured person. That's why I'm dancing with you. Don't overthink it."
Yang Cheng bitterly smiled. "I'm not overthinking it. I just want to dance with you."
