The Federation did not discriminate against homosexuals. In fact, there were already some states in the S3 region that had begun to push for homosexual marriage laws. If the Federation's oldest and most mysterious Tai Clan, which had only been passed down for seven generations, suddenly had a successor with homosexual tendencies, the Federation's President and the other big clans would be so happy that they wouldn't be able to sleep for a few nights. However, other than people like Miss Sun who were so shocked that their thoughts were in a mess, no one would think that the heir of the Tai family was really a homosexual.
All the shocked and puzzled gazes were cast on Xu Le under the light beam. The exclamations could not be calmed down for a long time. The more people who knew the truth of the ball, the more incredulous they felt. Especially the group of men and women who had come from afar to attend the ball, they could not accept this fact at all. They subconsciously thought that there must be a problem with the lighting control of the central computer.
However, the light beam did not move. Xu Le's ordinary face was bathed in the silver light, adding a bit of charm to it. Even his puzzled frown looked very attractive.
Zou Yu quietly stared straight at Xu Le in the center of the field. She thought that she was the only one present who knew that Tai Zhiyuan and Xu Le knew each other. However, looking at this scene, she knew that although her brother Crown Prince could not be a homosexual, in his eyes, today's ball that she had been preparing for and looking forward to for a long time … was just a farce. How could he be so ridiculous?
Her brother Crown Prince did not know how to choose a dance partner. Perhaps he already had one. Even if he wanted to choose, he would not choose her. Zou Yu's eyes were emotionless. She sadly raised her head and looked in the direction of the second floor.
There was no one on the second floor. Her hand that was tightly holding the empty champagne glass trembled. Endless disappointment and exhaustion flooded her heart. The bright red dress on her body was like blood, making her heart palpitate. She felt like she was a big joke. Her fingers suddenly lost strength. The empty champagne glass fell to the ground and broke into countless pieces, never to be put back together again.
…
…
At the back of the crowd, Shi Qinghai frowned. He retracted his gaze from the champagne glass and looked at Xu Le, who was standing in the middle of the field. He couldn't figure out what had happened. Previously, when Xu Le had rushed out, he had been prepared to watch a good show. He wanted to see how his brother would snatch the Crown Prince's beloved from him … But who would have thought that the strange and mysterious Crown Prince would actually play such a trick? Could it be that Xu Le knew the Crown Prince before? Shi Qinghai's frown deepened as a trace of doubt flashed through his clear eyes.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the "uncle" next to him, wanting to get some information from the intelligence leader. However, he was surprised to find that the man's face did not show the slightest surprise at all. He just looked at Xu Le gently under the light, as if he had already guessed all of this.
"What do you know?" Shi Qinghai lowered his voice and asked coldly, "Did you know that Xu Le and the Crown Prince knew each other, so you wanted to get to know Xu Le through me?"
The second leader of the anti-government army smiled slightly and said softly, "The intelligence only said that Xu Le and the Crown Prince had once gone to whore together. I thought that they should have a good relationship, but I didn't expect the Crown Prince to be so playful as to push your friend out."
Shi Qinghai's delicate eyebrows trembled. He suddenly thought of the phone call that Xu Le had given him a few days ago. Could it be that Xu Le had gone to whore together with the heir of the Tai family that morning because he was heartbroken? Thinking of this, Shi Qinghai was shocked.
The person who was even more shocked than Mr. Shi was, without a doubt, Zhang Xiaomeng, who was sitting opposite Xu Le. She covered her mouth tightly and looked at Xu Le, who was bathed in the silver light not far in front of her. She immediately guessed why Xu Le had run to the center of the field just now, but she couldn't understand why the light had enveloped Xu Le.
Xu Le didn't understand either, but he knew that the person on the second floor was Tai Zhiyuan, so he knew that the light that had lit him up in front of everyone was definitely that guy's doing. He turned his head and was about to find Tai Zhiyuan behind the railing on the second floor, so that he could quickly turn off the damn light beam. Growing up, Xu Le was not used to being the center of attention. Furthermore, he was carrying a huge secret on his back. What made him even more uncomfortable was that he did not have wings on his back. How could he float in such a pillar of light ….???
The moment he turned his head, there was another round of exclamations from around the field. He was shocked to find that the dazzling light beam above his head had left him … and was floating towards Zhang Xiaomeng, who was not far from him!
The situation suddenly changed. Looking at the light beam moving, the exclamations rose again. Zhang Xiaomeng looked at the light beam moving towards her in disbelief. She subconsciously took a step back with her right foot, wanting to avoid it, but stopped at the last moment.
Under the silver light beam, the girl in blue, who was as pure as the sky, instantly occupied everyone's eyes.
Xu Le was anxious. He turned around and shouted towards the second floor, "Tai Zhiyuan, this is mine!"
…
…
There were already too many surprises at Li Hua University's Double Moon Festival dance party today. However, in the dreamlike scene under the beam of light, this young male student declared his ownership of a certain girl in front of everyone in a loud and resonant voice, and even a little vulgar. It still surprised everyone, especially when some people remembered that he seemed to have directly criticized the name of the heir of the Xiu Shu Foundation.
Tai Zhiyuan, who was in front of the screen on the second floor, almost laughed when he heard this loud sentence. However, he restrained his smile and felt a little uncomfortable. He whispered to himself, "Of course I know it's yours."
A calm voice that could silence the listeners rang out in the dance party. This voice sounded very normal, but it seemed to have a trace of magic. In an instant, all the exclamations and discussions in the hall were suppressed, leaving the hall silent.
That was Tai Zhiyuan's gentle and polite voice. After he expressed his apology, he explained softly, "… Now standing in the middle of the dance party, standing under the silver light of the two moons, is a friend of mine and the girl he loves … There have been many beautiful stories at the Double Moon Festival dance party, including those of my parents …
"I hope that at my coming of age ceremony, there will also be a beautiful story that will be passed down for many years to come. Please give them a round of applause and blessings."
…
…
At this point in the story, the people at the dance party thought that they finally understood what had happened. After a moment of silence, warm applause rang out. A small portion of the applause was to praise the generosity of the successor of the Xiu Shu Foundation on the second floor. He had turned his coming of age ceremony into a scene of a friend's courtship. However, most of the applause was to bless the couple bathed in the silver moonlight.
At this time, Xu Le noticed that the light beam above his head did not disappear. The light beam that moved towards Zhang Xiaomeng was only one of the two lights. At this time, it was late at night. The applause rang out, and the clear light from the transparent dome spilled down. In the dim dance party, only the two lights fell on top of his and Zhang Xiaomeng's heads. It was very eye-catching …
Zhang Xiaomeng put down the hand that was on her lips in shock. She watched in disbelief as Xu Le, shrouded in the light, walked step by step toward her. In the eyes of the bystanders, following Xu Le's footsteps, the light beam above his head moved as well. It gradually merged with the girl in the blue dress under the moonlight.
Just like the two moons in the night sky that were gradually merging into one, it was such a beautiful scene. The applause became louder, and there were a few mischievous whistles in between.
…
…
Xu Le finally walked in front of Zhang Xiaomeng. He looked at the cute little blue dress on the girl's shoulders and fell silent. For a moment, he did not know what to say. Yes, this beautiful scene at this time was like a dream. It was enough to intoxicate everyone. Xu Le was deeply grateful that Tai Zhiyuan had actually arranged such an unexpected scene for him. However, he was a practical person. He always felt that dreams were just dreams, not real life.
Zhang Xiaomeng did not say anything. She pursed her lips tightly and looked at him with a trace of stubbornness. In the imagination of every young man and woman for the future and for love, this scene at tonight's dance party was definitely the most beautiful courtship scene. It was not that she had not fantasized about it, but seeing it become reality, her feelings were unusually complicated and strange. She did not know why this dance party suddenly turned out like this.
Because of the silence of the male and female leads, the applause gradually subsided.
Zhang Xiaomeng lowered her head and said softly, "The person upstairs is called Tai Zhiyuan?"
He did not expect her first sentence to be like this. Xu Le's mood was a little down. He smiled bitterly and said, "Everything … was just to get close to him?"
The two of them spoke very softly. No one could hear them. In the eyes of others, they would probably think that the two of them were whispering sweet words of love.
Zhang Xiaomeng slowly raised her head. The moonlight shone on her delicate cheeks, illuminating the slightest detail in her ears. Her delicate and pretty eyes blinked. She suppressed the trace of anger in her heart and asked softly, "Are you his friend? You knew that I wanted to get close to him, so you kept lying to me? "
Xu Le frowned and replied, "You kept it from me … I don't know why you wanted to get close to him, and I don't want to know. I just want to know what those days, that night, meant to you. "
Zhang Xiaomeng's eyes dimmed a little. She knew that Xu Le was telling the truth. She used to think that Xu Le was just a poor and honest student. She never thought that her goal of returning to the university would turn out to be his friend … How did the heir of the Tai family become friends with Xu Le? Her emotions were very complicated. After hearing this sentence, her heart felt like it had been stabbed by a needle. It was extremely painful.
"I'm sorry." Zhang Xiaomeng took a deep breath. She felt that things in the world were too ridiculous. Just like the ice-cold daughter of the Zou family not far behind her, she felt that this ball, especially herself, was a complete joke.
Under the silver light of the two moons, the girl was very sad. For the person she believed in, for the person she was willing to sacrifice … She once gave up her love with great heartache. But at the end of the story, she realized that at that time … she did not need to give up anything. This kind of pain made her feel frustrated and helpless.
