Thinking that the person hugging her waist was Xiao Chuyun, Jiang Yansheng's heart tightened. She frowned and wanted to push away the strength of the hand, but she didn't expect that the hand on her waist was just helping her up. Furthermore, the strength used was very ruthless, and then the hand quickly left.
He didn't seem to want to stay a little longer. It seemed that it was just a piece of cake.
And he seemed to be a little angry.
She wanted to thank him, but her words were stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say anything for a long time.
Jiang Yansheng turned her head in a daze, only to see the broad back of the man under the stairs. She couldn't see his face, nor could she see the man's mask.
The man left very quickly and disappeared in a short while. Wanting to find this person again in the vast hall was really more difficult than ascending to the heavens.
"Why were you so careless?" Xiao Chuyun's cold voice interrupted Jiang Yansheng's thoughts.
Jiang Yansheng smiled awkwardly and casually found an excuse. "The dress you ordered is too long, and I stepped on it just now."
"I'll help you carry it."
Xiao Chuyun's kind offer was rejected by Jiang Yansheng in fear. "No, it's okay. I didn't pay attention just now."
"The banquet has just started, and there are quite a lot of people inside. Even if we go down now, we won't be noticed. I wonder if Miss Jiang would like to go with me?" Xiao Chuyun threw out an invitation.
Jiang Yansheng hesitated. "I really can't dance very well."
After that, she drank up the champagne in her hand and gently pursed her lips. "If Mr. Xiao isn't afraid that I'll break your shoes today, let's go."
Xiao Chuyun didn't quite believe Jiang Yansheng's words and thought that she was being modest. "Do you think you can't compare to a pair of shoes?"
Jiang Yansheng glanced at him coldly. "The shoes are one thing. I'm more afraid that you will feel embarrassed and desperate later."
She had spent three whole hours to drive a patient like Gu Yan crazy. She could only hope that she could improve her dancing skills after a good night's sleep.
With one hand on Xiao Chuyun's shoulder, Jiang Yansheng walked into the dance floor. To his surprise, he found that even the floor under his feet could light up. Wherever he stepped on, it would light up because of his pressure. When he left, the light would disappear.
If someone was watching from the edge of the dance floor, they would be able to see the beautiful arcs drawn inside.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yansheng and Xiao Chuyun's arc was a bit bumpy.
"Now I believe what you just said." Xiao Chuyun smiled helplessly. Initially, he was only holding onto Jiang Yansheng's hand, but now, he was using it to help her keep an eye on her steps, trying not to make any mistakes.
The muscles all over Jiang Yansheng's body were tense. She looked at her feet with the corner of her eyes. Because of the light, she could see more clearly. "It's not too late for you to regret it now."
"But my performance today is actually more than three or four times better than before."
Xiao Chuyun sneered. "I really want to see how you danced before."
Jiang Yansheng's face was cold. His hand on Xiao Chuyun's shoulder suddenly tightened and squeezed it hard.
Xiao Chuyun's face twitched in pain. Only then did she let go of his hand in satisfaction.
It was as if she had been bewitched today. When she danced with Gu Yan, she could step on his step almost every three steps. But now, when she danced with Xiao Chuyun, she would only miss one step every ten steps. Sometimes, she wouldn't make any mistakes, but she just danced a little slower.
"I can teach you next time." Xiao Chuyun looked down and stared at her. "When I'm not wearing a mask."
Jiang Yansheng looked up and smiled innocently. "There won't be a next time."
If it weren't for Xiao Chuyun's sudden request, she wouldn't have even danced for the first time.
This thing was really too difficult to learn.
Xiao Chuyun felt helpless. "Don't you want to think about it before rejecting me?"
Jiang Yansheng pursed his lips. "If I were a talented dancer, I would gladly agree. Unfortunately …"
Because of the man's words, her nervous and focused energy was divided into three or four parts. She accidentally took a few wrong steps and almost stood on Xiao Chuyun's feet.
The man's face darkened. "I can roughly imagine what happened to you."
Jiang Yansheng smiled shyly. "When will it end? Sorry."
"When it ends …" Xiao Chuyun said. He turned around and looked at the orchestra sitting on both sides of the hall, and the lights on the ceiling suddenly turned off.
In the dark, the feeling of the man's hand on her body was magnified ten times, and Jiang Yansheng moved a little uncomfortably.
"Now it's time to change partners. I believe everyone has already found someone they like during the dance just now. After you separate from your current partners, you can …"
Jiang Yansheng frowned and asked, "What's this? Didn't you say you wouldn't change partners? "
"It's fine." Xiao Chuyun said. "Just don't let go. Just treat it like we've already done it once."
In the dark, she stopped smiling and stood there in boredom.
She gloomily thought about when she would be able to end this torturous dance party.
Once was enough for her, and she would never set foot in such a place again.
Although she couldn't see her surroundings in the dark, Jiang Yansheng could clearly feel that Xiao Chuyun had been hit by someone. Although she tightened her grip on her waist, she was taken away by another stronger force.
The black dress that had just reached the ground drew a gentle arc on the ground. Jiang Yansheng was silent.
She was clearly struggling when she was dancing with Xiao Chuyun just now, but there was still someone who liked her. Should she feel a headache or should she feel lucky?
She didn't know how many steps she had been taken, but when the lights were turned on, Xiao Chuyun should be able to find her again.
After all, this black swan mask was chosen by Xiao Chuyun herself, and no one else in the hall was wearing the same black mask as her.
While she was thinking, Jiang Yansheng felt the mask on her face lighten, and it was suddenly taken off.
She couldn't believe it. "What are you doing?"
In the dark, she could vaguely see that the man who had taken her as a partner was at least 1.8 meters tall, and his arms were very strong. She accidentally touched his muscles just now.
Jiang Yansheng sniffed the air gently, but he didn't smell the perfume that she remembered.
The thought that this person could be Gu Ran was abruptly dispelled.
"Did he buy it for you?" The man pinched the black swan mask tightly and said in a deep voice. He took out a new one out of nowhere. Although his attitude was very bad, he gently helped Jiang Yansheng put it on.
The voice was frighteningly familiar. Jiang Yansheng was puzzled. "Gu Yan?"
"I'm not." The man denied in a muffled voice.
Jiang Yansheng couldn't help laughing. She fixed the mask that the man had been wearing for a long time, but it was still crooked. "Why are you here?"
Why didn't he wear the perfume that he had been using before?
The man's tone was much worse, and he deliberately lowered his voice. "I told you that I'm not Gu Yan! I just saw you dancing just now and thought that you looked good, so I wanted to snatch you over. You could have changed partners, but why did you still follow that weak boy? "
He even blew gently into Jiang Yansheng's ear. "Your waist is so soft."
Jiang Yansheng: "…"
Even the word 'weak chicken' was openly thrown at Xiao Chuyun's head.
She suddenly felt that Gu Yan was really childish sometimes.
Although the man didn't smell familiar, she was somehow sure that this person was Gu Yan.
Especially since he was obviously angry, but he was still holding her gently.
However, she really couldn't understand why Gu Yan had made up his mind to pretend to be a wretched and strange stranger.
Curling her lips into a smile, Jiang Yansheng naturally snuggled into the man's embrace. Feeling his body stiffen, she smiled even more widely. "Are you one of my pursuers?"
In the dark, her fingertips moved deeper into the man's suit sleeve as if she had been electrocuted. "You have such a good figure. If you were more temperamental, I might fall in love with you."
The man's breathing quickened, but his temper worsened. "I told you that I'm not the Gu Yan you're talking about. How could you say that?"
Jiang Yansheng said meaningfully. "Why can't I say that? I was just asking. Did you take it seriously? "
"Do you say that to everyone?" The man's anger seemed to have turned into resentment, and his voice was a little lower than before. He didn't let go of Jiang Yansheng's waist. He gritted his teeth. "You're really …"
"Wait a minute. Are you wearing an off-shoulder gown with a slit?"
Jiang Yansheng gave a lazy grunt of agreement.
The man took something out of nowhere and gently covered Jiang Yansheng's shoulders.
The soft fluff warmed her skin, which had been cold from the cold wind.
Jiang Yansheng almost couldn't control the smile on his lips.
The previous ball was nothing. It wasn't interesting at all. It was interesting that Gu Yan was here.
Since he wanted to pretend to be a stranger, she would accompany him to the end.
Jiang Yansheng tapped the man's jaw lightly with his fingertips and said doubtfully, "What kind of tone is that? Didn't you say that when you saw me dancing just now … "
Before she could finish her words, the crystal light on the top was turned on again, and the psychedelic light covered everyone like a thin layer of fog.
The man who was hugging her was wearing a leopard mask. Even if half of his face was covered, it couldn't cover his handsome features.
Pursing his thin lips, his pair of pitch-black eyes seemed to be burning with flames, tightly gripping onto Jiang Yansheng.
Jiang Yansheng touched her face and remembered that she couldn't take off the mask. She smiled and asked, "What mask did you change for me?"
"A fox."
The man took a deep breath and wanted to chew her up. "I don't know if you like it, but you can't take it off even if you don't."
Jiang Yansheng tried to stifle her laughter. Seeing Gu Ran so serious and angry, her gloomy mood improved. "No, I like it very much."
"Is yours a pair with mine?"
