"The performance just now was really wonderful, but Xinxin, you must not agree to Miss Jiang's invitation. After all, there are so many guests at the dinner. You have stolen the limelight. How can others have a chance to get applause? You think so, right?"
!”
The graceful and graceful voice from all sides rang out in the silent air.
A beautiful woman wearing a white haute couture dress with a narrow waist and a narrow hem walked in. The slit skirt was inlaid with feathers of the same color and swayed as she walked.
It adds a touch of agility to the demure and graceful look, giving people a bright feeling.
Yu Yuexin originally felt that this voice was like the sound of nature, saving her from the fire and water.
When he saw who it was, his eyes became a little more eager.
"Sister Yingxi~"
Yu Yuexin whispered excitedly, and her tense nerves finally relaxed.
Huo Yingxi walked up to her and silently gave her a comforting look, telling her not to worry.
Then he turned his attention to Jiang Nuantang, his red lips parted lightly and said:
"Miss Jiang must be tired after dancing for so long! Why don't you give me some face? This is the end of the matter, so you can go back to your seat and rest."
Huo Yingxi was gentle and polite, with a smile on her lips.
There was even more certainty in her eyes, convinced that Jiang Nuantang would agree to her request and put an end to the matter.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nuantang just glanced at her lightly, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a cold voice:
"Give you face? Who are you?"
In fact, Jiang Nuantang had already recognized the other party's identity.
The eldest daughter of the Huo family, Huo Yingxi, was adopted by Mrs. Huo and was named the eldest daughter of the eldest family.
This was the same person who stopped her at the last auction held at Hanhai Auction House and asked her to give up Wangbei Dongcao.
only……
It's one thing to know the other person's identity, but it's another thing entirely to be willing to admit it.
After all, in her opinion, the two of them don't count and their relationship is not harmonious.
In this case, where did the other party's words of giving face come from.
Just because her surname is Huo, we can't ask everyone to open the door to her!
Jiang Nuantang is not used to them.
Huo Yingxi was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect this answer, and her face was a little embarrassed.
Yu Yuexin also had an expression of disbelief, raised her voice, and sneered unceremoniously:
"As expected, he is a country bumpkin. He doesn't even know Sister Yingxi. She is the only girl in the three generations of the Huo family and is deeply loved by Mrs. Huo. You cannot afford to offend her!"
Yu Yuexin said it with great pride, especially the last sentence, which made her voice even louder.
It is intended to emphasize the difference between Jiang Nuantang and them.
Jiang Nuantang didn't care about the disparagement in her words.
He only slightly raised the corners of his lips and said without comment:
"Really? The only girl?"
Jiang Nuantang glanced at Huo Yingxi with a half-smile, making her uncomfortable before looking away.
I don't know if it was Jiang Nuantang's knowing look that made Huo Yingxi feel guilty, or some other reason.
Her momentum has been reduced by half, and she has lost the confidence she had at the beginning.
He smiled a little apologetically and explained awkwardly:
"I don't mean anything else by saying this. I just saw that Miss Jiang must be a little tired after dancing for so long, so I just want to advise you..."
As the eldest lady of the Huo family.
Even though they are not related by blood, over the years, who has not taken advantage of this surname and treated her with courtesy.
Huo Yingxi had never apologized to someone so humbly.
What she said was very difficult for her to say.
The sound gets quieter towards the back.
After finally appreciating her predicament, Jiang Nuantang opened her lips lightly and said calmly:
"Compared to making friends with Miss Yu over the piano, what does this tiredness mean?"
Jiang Nuantang spoke gracefully, but Yu Yuexin turned pale.
Thinking that Jiang Nuantang would not let her go, he planned to peel off the last layer of her skin and expose it to the sun.
Then I heard the other party change the topic, and his voice was faint and authentic:
"But what Miss Huo said makes sense. It has indeed taken too long. So I will find an opportunity next time to compete with Miss Yu on my skills. I hope that when the time comes... Miss Yu, please don't refuse."
The meaningful words were like a sword of Damocles, hanging above Yu Yuexin's head.
There is always a danger of falling.
Yu Yuexin gritted her teeth with hatred.
She didn't know the purpose of Jiang Nuantang's words. He didn't really want to discuss things with her.
But he saw that she couldn't dance and deliberately tried to embarrass her.
But she couldn't get angry and expose her shortcomings.
He could only twitch the corners of his mouth with a stiff smile and responded:
"How, how could it be possible? If there is a chance, I, I will accompany you to the end..."
Yu Yuexin said she would stay with her until the end, but her voice clearly lacked confidence.
But in order not to lose his momentum, I had no choice but to accept the invitation.
Jiang Nuantang obviously saw her bravery, but he didn't point it out.
He nodded with a smile and said:
"That's good. Originally, I was worried that Miss Yu would hold a grudge against me in her heart! After all, I stole all your limelight just now."
Jiang Nuantang spoke very slowly and softly.
It was enough for Yu Yuexin to hear everything clearly.
Every word, every word was spoken in a clear and precise tone, leading her to relive the scene just now, teasing her sensitive nerves all the time.
Yu Yuexin was so angry that she wanted to hit someone, but she could only admit it.
No matter what, she was the unlucky one after all.
I met someone who was proficient in music theory and good at dancing.
Yu Yuexin comforted herself in her heart, but Jiang Nuantang seemed to have seen through her thoughts.
The voice paused, and after a few seconds, he added:
"But thanks to Miss Yu, she asked me to dance with you instead of singing with you. Otherwise, it would be really a problem for me, who is tone deaf..."
For me, who is tone-deaf, this is really a problem...
What is a weapon without bloodshed?
That’s it!
Regardless of whether Jiang Nuantang's statement is true or false.
The four words "tone deaf" took root in Yu Yuexin's heart.
She was always reminded that there was another possibility that Jiang Nuantang could only compose music but not sing, so she turned to dance.
However, she was smart enough to rule out the choice of accompaniment singers, asked the singer to accompany her as a dancer, and stupidly put her face in front of her to slap her.
This realization made Yu Yuexin feel dizzy.
Especially when I looked up at Jiang Nuantang's smile that belonged exclusively to the winner, I felt even more dazzling.
"you--"
Yu Yuexin clenched her fists and tried to calm down her inner dissatisfaction even though she tried to rebuild herself mentally.
She raised her head and looked at Jiang Nuantang with a scarlet gaze filled with hatred, gritted her teeth and said:
"I'll fight with you...!"
Yu Yuexin said, regardless of whether this was at the Shao family's dinner.
What impact will she have if she does this in front of everyone? She just wants to tear the unsightly woman in front of her into pieces.
