Yang Cheng led Lin Ruoxi to the center of the dance floor, accompanied by the Danube's round dance tune.
Slowly, he stroked Lin Ruoxi's back with one hand, feeling the smoothness under the silk dress, and crossed his fingers with the other hand, looking at each other.
It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous. Lin Ruoxi's body trembled instinctively, and for a moment, she even forgot what the start of the waltz was.
In fact, although Lin Ruoxi had received the etiquette education of the upper class since she was a child and learned all the necessary dance steps, the person who taught Lin Ruoxi had always been a woman. Therefore, it was the first time that Lin Ruoxi danced with a man.
Her first dance was with this man, and the two of them had an unpleasant quarrel just now. Needless to say, Lin Ruoxi felt that it was a little ironic.
Because the couple Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi were too eye-catching, many people stared at them from the beginning of the dance.
Lin Ruoxi had always been a quiet person. She had never participated in a banquet like this before, let alone being watched as she danced. As a result, her body was slightly stiff, and her dance movements weren't very coherent.
"If you are stiff, it will be very ugly when you jump out." Yang Cheng said with a faint smile.
Lin Ruoxi bit her thin lips and said, "You'd better take care of yourself."
After a simple exchange, Lin Ruoxi finally relaxed. Thinking that it was a dance, it didn't matter if she was hugged by him. Anyway, people were hugging each other in all directions, and some young people would even occasionally take the opportunity to kiss each other.
Ballroom dancing was a traditional dance step recorded in the 11th and 12th centuries, but before the 17th century, it had always been a dance for the European royal family.
After the French Revolution, it gradually flowed into the people and gave rise to a variety of more eye-catching dance steps. Later, it was popularized by the American society, and gradually formed the current national standard, which was the waltz, rumba, and other similar dances.
Because there were many kinds of dances, the people who learned them were not all the same. Therefore, there would be some differences in the dance steps.
Lin Ruoxi had been taught traditional ballroom dancing, which was used for social etiquette. She didn't dabble too much in it, so although her dancing was standard, most of the movements were constrained by dogma, which was very standard.
After dancing with Lin Ruoxi for a short while, Yang Cheng couldn't help smiling. "Darling, do you know how I feel when I dance with you?"
"What?" Lin Ruoxi asked in a low voice. She wondered if she hadn't studied for a long time and made a mistake.
"I feel like I've returned to medieval Europe, dancing the most traditional ancient ballroom dance with a noble lady at a palace ball. Although the dance steps are very elegant, it's like a puppet. There's no tension at all," Yang Cheng said.
Lin Ruoxi was not stupid. She rolled her eyes at Yang Cheng. "You can just say that I'm dull. You don't have to beat around the bush. When I was learning, my teacher taught me this. How do you think I should dance? "
"Do you want me to teach you?" Yang Cheng winked at her.
Lin Ruoxi was a bit unconvinced and angrily said: "You only know how to dance. What right do you have to teach me?"
"Who said I only know how to dance? I only dance to match your steps. In fact, even if it's the most traditional dance, as long as you change some of the details, it's still very interesting." Yang Cheng said with a ruminating tone.
Lin Ruoxi naturally wouldn't believe him. In her eyes, Yang Cheng being able to dance was already a strange thing. How could he have studied it?
Thus, with the intention of watching a joke, she said: "Okay, you tell me what to do. I'm warning you, if it's a stupid move, I won't cooperate with you."
"It seems like our General Lin is a timid woman. At least when it comes to dancing, she can't let go." Yang Cheng said with a sigh.
Lin Ruoxi said with a mocking smile: "You don't need to goad me. If you want to dance, then don't dance."
"Then you should relax a bit. If you use your muscles and bones like this, how can I guide your movements?" Yang Cheng said.
Lin Ruoxi hesitated a bit. Her heart was a bit worried. But as the dance moved, her heart also relaxed a bit. She clenched her teeth and began to relax her body's movements.
Suddenly, just as Lin Ruoxi was about to take a step back, Lin Ruoxi felt one of Yang Cheng's hands let go of her waist. Immediately after, a skillful force moved to her other hand and her body smoothly took two steps back!
"It's about to start."
Yang Cheng said this and a series of movements followed!
Lin Ruoxi felt that Yang Cheng's hands were constantly displaying all kinds of skillful forces. Sometimes, it was coordinated with her legs to make her dance faster and bigger with the rhythm.
The accompanying music started to speed up, and the original waltz became a bit like a tango.
Lin Ruoxi felt that the huge crystal chandelier above her began to spin rapidly. Her body followed the control of Yang Cheng's two hands and catered to different trajectories. As long as she stretched her body naturally, she could make all kinds of movements that she hadn't thought of before.
The dance steps of the two suddenly became completely different from the male and female partners around them. Especially the occasional exaggerated dance movements. It was like professional figure skating. The high-speed rotation and separation were a perfect match. From time to time, Lin Ruoxi would feel her waist being hugged by Yang Cheng with one hand and her body would be in the air for a short period of time …
In fact, because the frequency of Yang Cheng's movements was too fast, Lin Ruoxi didn't have the chance to feel what she was doing. She just followed the directions of various forces and her body naturally danced.
Many of the dancers around them stopped and watched with interest as the two of them waltzed in a relaxed manner.
Many of the people present had been to many Western countries. They could easily recognize that the two's dance was full of strong Western folk dance style. It was casual and natural.
Lin Ruoxi's black silk evening gown seemed to be extremely tight at this moment. There were many times when Lin Ruoxi was so frightened that she thought her gown would split open.
The skirt was like a blooming black lotus, flying with the dance steps, revealing a small section of white and tender calves.
Many young women enviously watched the two of them dance excitedly, while many men subconsciously decided not to dance tonight because their dance steps seemed a little too old-fashioned.
The person with the strangest expression was Liu Yun, who had planned to make a fool of Yang Cheng. At this moment, there was a smile on Liu Yun's face, but it was gray. His eyes reflected the figure of the man and woman on the dance floor, as if he wanted to burn them.
Tang Wan, who was drinking cocktails in the corner, watched for a while. The Cai sisters were also a bit surprised. The Yang Cheng they knew had never shown such a side.
When the waltz came to an end, many of the people at the side were not satisfied enough. They shouted for Yang Chen and Lin Ruoxi to dance again.
Lin Ruoxi was panting. Her pink face was full of red, and her eyes were moist. It was the first time she danced so passionately. In the end, there were even many movements where her body was completely on Yang Cheng's body. It was only with Yang Cheng's strength that she could perform those difficult movements.
At this moment, when she stopped, Lin Ruoxi realized how bold she was. Her face was even redder, and she didn't dare to look up at Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng didn't feel that it was too difficult. In fact, Lin Ruoxi's basic skills were very good. He only needed to give her a little guidance, and many of the movements would come naturally.
"Do you still want to dance?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.
Lin Ruoxi lowered her head and shook it gently.
"Isn't this kind of dance more interesting than taking the stiff route?" Yang Cheng asked happily.
Lin Ruoxi suddenly asked, "Have you danced with many women?"
Yang Cheng was speechless. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Why do you ask?"
"You are very familiar with it. You used to dance like this abroad, right?" Lin Ruoxi raised her head, and he couldn't see any expression.
Yang Cheng carefully replied, "I danced in some bars. You know, the bars abroad are more open. It is normal for people to dance together, and the movements are much more exaggerated."
Lin Ruoxi nodded, "I seem to understand why you are like that. You must have been living abroad … It must be very …"
"Very what?" Yang Cheng asked.
Lin Ruoxi sighed, "Let's not talk about it. Let's go. I'm tired."
Yang Cheng felt helpless for a while. Why did she stop halfway? What kind of habit is this? Isn't she making me anxious?
However, from the looks of it, Lin Ruoxi didn't seem to be in a cold war with me anymore. This is also good news.
However, what they didn't expect was that after Yang Chen's interference, basically no one danced on the dance floor anymore. Everyone felt that their dance steps weren't pleasing to the eye, so they started drinking and chatting, pretending to be busy.
As the host, Liu Kangbai directly walked up to the stage and announced that the dance party would end early, and the main event of the night, the charity auction.
