All Chapters_Chapter 134: Inaugural Ball (2)
When Lin Ziyi and An Yize met, An Yize had already picked out evening dresses and jewelry for her, and the makeup artist and stylist had already been waiting.
The dress is an off-white bandeau drag long skirt, the chest and waist are densely inlaid with broken diamonds, dazzling, luxurious and elegant, and the jewelry is a necklace made of sapphires.
Today, An Yize actually took out this necklace for her to wear......
Lin Ziyi looked up at An Yize in front of him, opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he heard An Yize's voice sound, "If you only regard accompanying me to the dance tonight as a transaction, then don't say anything, don't do anything, just cooperate with me." β
Lin Ziyi frowned lightly, and finally shut up and didn't say anything.
An Yize is right, tonight is a transaction, she is a commodity being traded, and she is not qualified to express her opinion.
Sitting down in front of the dresser, Lin Ziyi let the makeup artist and stylist start fiddling with herself.
Half an hour later, An Yize looked at Lin Ziyi, who seemed to be beautiful in front of him as if he had come down from the sky, and even his breathing was stagnant for a moment.
Lin Ziyi tugged at the corners of his lips lightly and lowered his head, "Let's go!"
An Yize came back to his senses and handed her a delicate handbag with the same style as Lin Ziyi's dress, all inlaid with fine pieces, "It contains some things that you might use at the ball." β
Lin Ziyi nodded, took it, turned around first, and walked towards the elevator.
.....................
On the black Rolls-Royce, Lin Ziyi sat in the direction of the car window as much as possible, almost one arm was attached to the car door, and he didn't say a word to An Yize along the way, only looked sideways at the incomparably prosperous night scene in the imperial capital.
An Yize sat on the other side with his long legs folded, and along the way, his eyes always fell on Lin Ziyi's body for a moment, and his hot naked eyes were not concealed at all.
"Do you have to sit so far away from me?" said An Yize with a hint of hoarseness in his voice.
The space of the carriage is not spacious, as long as he stretches out his long arms, he can easily touch Lin Ziyi and hug her into his arms, but from the time he got on the train to the present, he has done nothing but look at her.
Lin Ziyi didn't look at him, but still cast all his eyes out of the window without focus, and said in a shallow and faint voice, "This will be more comfortable." β
An Yize's eyebrows couldn't help but twist slightly, and the loss in his eyes couldn't be more obvious.
"Ziyi, are you still afraid of me?"
Lin Ziyi shook his head, "No, I just want to stay away from you." β
An Yize was furious, his forbearance had reached a limit.
Reaching out, An Yize pulled Lin Ziyi, who was leaning against the car window, over violently, and then straightened her face with his other hand, forcing her to look at herself.
He stared at her with a pair of angry eyes, and roared in an angry voice, "Is it because of Tang Su?"
Facing An Yize's anger that he had never had, Lin Ziyi smiled lightly, "No! because you are An Yize." β
"Why?" The three words, An Yize asked against the back socket.
"Because your mother and sister are so vicious that I am afraid, I can't afford to provoke it, so I can only hide from afar. β
"What do you mean?" An Yize was not stupid at all, after knowing the death of Adjutant Zhang, he guessed something, but he didn't want to know more about it.
Because he felt that he and everyone in his family seemed to be going farther and farther away, and he could no longer find the blood affection he used to have.
Now, he rarely goes back to the Vice-Presidential Palace once a week, and he doesn't care about anything happening in the Vice-Presidential Palace.
Lin Ziyi smiled and said nothing.
Whether An Yize knew what his mother and sister had done to her, it didn't matter.
Anyway, she would never provoke them again.
"It was my mother and Xiyan who asked Adjutant Zhang to do something to you, didn't you?"
Lin Ziyi didn't say it, it didn't mean that An Yize couldn't guess, remembering what An Xiyan had told Adjutant Zhang to do to Lin Ziyi, An Yize immediately understood everything.
Lin Ziyi only smiled indifferently, still silent and didn't say anything.
Looking at the calm smile on Lin Ziyi's face, An Yize let go of her, the whole person was depressed, leaned back in the chair, and the anger in his eyes was gradually replaced by various complicated feelings.
In the carriage, there was a dead silence again, and at this moment, the two of them were like mirrors, only the driver in front of them drove the car tremblingly, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
When the car gradually approached the venue of tonight's dance, Lin Ziyi was a little confused.
The car drove into the Capitol instead of somewhere else.
Is the prom taking place at the Capitol?
Suddenly, Lin Ziyi understood something.
"What dance are you going to take me to?" Lin Ziyi suddenly looked sideways at An Yize and asked with an uneasy expression.
Although she had already guessed, she hoped that all her guesses were wrong until she was confirmed by An Yize.
"Tonight, what else could there be but the president's inaugural ball. This time, it was An Yizeyun's turn to answer Lin Ziyi lightly.
Lin Ziyi bit the corner of his lip lightly, closed his eyes, and tried to calm himself.
Why is she so stupid, why didn't she think about it, An Yize is the son of the vice president, and she is fully qualified to come to the president's inaugural ball.
The president's inaugural ball, the ball that belonged to that man, the ball between that man and his fiancΓ©e, didn't she find abuse herself?
"Can I not go?"
suppressed the surging waves in his chest, but Lin Ziyi couldn't suppress his trembling voice.
She really wasn't a brave woman, there were so many things that she would definitely not choose to face if she had the option to escape.
"Yes!" An Yize's attitude was still so dismissive, "However, no one can help her with Xie Xiaolin's affairs." β
Lin Ziyi bit his lower lip tightly, curled up more and more in the direction of the car window, but never said a word more.
..........................................
The car, slowly driving into the Capitol, drove through the long red carpet, and finally, stopped in front of the banquet hall.
As soon as the car stopped, a waiter immediately came forward and opened the doors on the left and right sides of the back seat, An Yize got out of the car first, and then, from the front of the car to the door on the other side, stretched out his hand to Lin Ziyi, who was about to get out of the car.
Lin Ziyi took a deep breath, and then exhaled again.
If it comes, it will be safe.
Since there is no room for maneuver, and she doesn't want to be grandiose, she can be An Yize's female companion tonight with peace of mind, just like that man, just a stranger on the top.
Looking at An Yize's outstretched hand, Lin Ziyi reached over with his white lace glove hand and put it in his palm.
When An Yize's five fingers clasped together and held Lin Ziyi's hand tightly into his palm, Lin Ziyi only felt that his entire spine was cold.
However, it is not because of nervousness, let alone fear, just because at this moment, the whole heart is cold.
Although she has never participated in such a high-level ball, Lin Haotian has invited a special etiquette teacher to teach Lin Ziyi various etiquette since she was a child, so even though she has not attended any dance party for six years, Lin Ziyi at this moment is calm and elegant like a noblest princess.
Turning lightly and holding An Yize's arm, Lin Ziyi took a plain and firm step, followed An Yize, and walked towards the golden and brilliant Congress banquet hall where the most dignitaries of the entire F country had gathered at this moment.
As soon as the door of the banquet hall was opened, a bright and somewhat dazzling light was projected on Lin Ziyi's body.
She frowned slightly uncomfortably, and there was a slight pause in her footsteps.
An Yize noticed her discomfort, turned his head sideways at her and smiled extremely gently and dotingly, and his other hand touched Lin Ziyi's hand on his arm, "Are you okay?"
Lin Ziyi's fingers subconsciously shrank, then looked sideways at An Yize, and smiled faintly, "I'm fine." β
An Yize smiled again, but the hand on the back of Lin Ziyi's hand did not take it back, and walked into the banquet hall with her.
In the hall, most of the dignitaries of country F had already arrived, and with the door being opened, many people's eyes were cast in the direction of the door.
In country F, I'm afraid that no dignitary will not know An Yize, the son of Vice President An and the boss of the An Group, but who can tell everyone who the woman next to him is?
Due to the whispered discussion, there were more and more astonishing, surprised, envious, jealous, appreciative, or obsessed glances thrown at Lin Ziyi.
Lin Ziyi met everyone's different looks, the corners of his lips raised a faint and decent arc, and with a calm and confident step, he followed An Yize step by step into the banquet hall.
However, even through the layers of crowds, Lin Ziyi quickly felt two unusually familiar glances.
Almost couldn't help it, Lin Ziyi followed the two familiar gazes and looked over, between the lightning and the fire, her heart was like a drum, just a glance, she immediately withdrew her gaze, and a little face that was so good to see the unreal crossed a touch of panic.
However, it was only a moment later, and Lin Ziyi ordered himself to calm down.
Who is he? He can be held by other women in the most dazzling position, why can't she hold other men in the public eye.
The corners of her mouth raised a more and more decent and confident arc, even if she could never become the queen by his side, but tonight, she wanted to be her own princess.
noticed the eyes of many people towards the gate, An Guobang, who was re-elected vice president, and Fu Yuzhen, who was holding his hand at this time, also looked towards the door.
When they saw who the woman next to their son was who was slowly walking towards the crowd, An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen's faces sank, and their eyes flashed with strong displeasure and even anger.
However, An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen are not people who do not know the importance and have no sense of proportion, on such an important occasion, even if they are annoyed at the moment and dissatisfied with their son, it is impossible to show it in front of others, let alone accuse their son or Lin Ziyi on the spot.
Therefore, after a moment of heart-wrenching anger, An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen glanced at each other, put away the unhappiness on their faces and the anger in their eyes, and returned to the decent smile on their faces.
In the center of the banquet hall, a man in a black suit, a white shirt, and a bow tie looked at the little woman who walked into the banquet hall in full view of everyone, holding the arms of other men, and walking into the banquet hall with such a calm and fluttering expression.
Admit it, Tang Su! Seeing Lin Ziyi appear with other men, you are crazy with jealousy!
At this time, beside the man, An Xiyan, who was dressed in a royal blue evening dress, looked at Lin Ziyi, who seemed to have come out of a painting, and almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth with hatred.
More and more people's eyes are on Lin Ziyi An Yize, at this moment, Lin Ziyi is like a rare treasure that has been suddenly revealed, so dazzling and dazzling, people can't take their eyes off.
"Young Master An's female companion, isn't it the woman who filmed the jewelry advertisement with him?" Soon, someone in the crowd remembered Lin Ziyilai.
"yes, who is that woman, it seems that no one knows her identity for so long. β
"It's so mysterious, it seems that Young Master An protects this woman very well. β
"If you look at Mr. An's expression, you can know that the rumor on the Internet before that the woman is his girlfriend is not false at all. β
"Talented and beautiful, I think they are a good match. β
.............................................
At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Ziyi, you and I said sentence by sentence, with Lin Ziyi's noble and elegant temperament at this moment, everyone guessed that she must have a noble status, otherwise, it would be impossible for An Yize to take a fancy to her.
Although six years ago, because of the scandal of unmarried pregnancy, Lin Ziyi's no-makeup photos were published in major media magazines, but she was only 18 years old at that time, besides, who was not a dignitary, how could she have the mind to remember Lin Ziyi's appearance without makeup six years ago.
After Lin Ziyi and An Yize walked into the crowd, people who knew An Yize immediately surrounded him and asked him about Lin Ziyi's name, birth and family history.
An Yize turned around and stretched out his hand, gently hugged Lin Ziyi's waist, and introduced to others with a very happy face, "This is my girlfriend, Lin Ziyi." β
Lin Ziyi heard the word "girlfriend" blurted out by An Yize, and the decent smile on his face instantly stiffened.
However, it was only a moment of sluggishness, and the smile on her face returned to a natural one.
Actually, it doesn't matter how An Yize introduces her to others, what matters is...
Lin Ziyi's gaze once again uncontrollably cast towards the most central position of the banquet hall, and his four eyes, like electricity, were in the air in an instant, stirring up thousands of ripples.
With just one glance, Lin Ziyi hurriedly withdrew his gaze again, and didn't dare to take a second look.
No matter how much courage she mustered, at this moment, she still couldn't face that man calmly, and she always felt that she was like a child who had done something wrong, and she was caught by him.
Although, maybe in the heart of that man at this moment, he didn't still care about her existence, or even appeared at the dance party that belonged to him and An Xiyan.
Hearing the words "Lin Ziyi", some people naturally remembered something, but everyone and An Yize have no grudges and hatred, so they can't reveal other people's scars on this occasion.
What's more, the undeniable fact is that Lin Ziyi is indeed a coveted beauty, everyone likes beautiful things, and it is inevitable that he wants to take a few more looks, and it is impossible to be stupid enough to offend An Yize.
Therefore, even if someone knew Lin Ziyi's identity and family history, no one showed any inappropriate look on their faces, and they still booed An Yize and Lin Ziyi.
Lin Ziyi smiled lightly and decently, when it was time to speak by himself, he opened his mouth just right, and never interjected where he shouldn't have too much mouth.
"Ziyi, let's go to the bar to pay tribute to Mr. President and Xiyan, who will soon be Mrs. President. After shushing with some acquaintances, An Yize proposed.
As he spoke, he took away the empty wine glass in Lin Ziyi's hand, took a glass of white wine for Lin Ziyi from the tray of the waiter who passed by, and handed it to her.
Lin Ziyi looked at An Yize, at this moment, she was not only stiff, but even her whole body was stiff, An Yize hugged her waist and wanted to take her forward, towards the direction of the man, but her steps were like pouring lead, and she couldn't move.
"Can I not go?" Since entering the banquet scene, Lin Ziyi has violated An Yize's wishes for the first time.
An Yize smiled, lowered his head close to her earburns, and whispered with hot breath, "What are you afraid of?"
Lin Ziyi's body almost subconsciously wanted to retreat, but she was held by An Yize's big palm, not allowing her to have any chance to retreat.
Tilting her head to the side, Lin Ziyi's big black and white eyes suddenly became infected with a touch of fierceness and anger, and she lowered her voice and spoke angrily in his ear.
"An Yize, even if I am a commodity being traded tonight, please give me the most basic human rights. β
An Yize raised the corners of his lips, but the smile on his face became more and more happy and satisfied, and the whole person became closer and closer to Lin Ziyidao, "Could it be that you have infinitely beautiful illusions about our Mr. President?"
Lin Ziyi looked at the gentle smile on An Yize's side face, and was speechless for a while, not knowing how to refute his words again.
Not far away, a man glanced over and saw that Lin Ziyi and An Yize's bodies were almost close together, in an ambiguous posture of talking with each other, and saw the gentle and doting smile on An Yize's face that was unusually satisfying to a woman, and the undercurrent of hard work in his ink-stained eyes was surging again.
"What about people?" the man lowered his eyes, tilted his head slightly, and asked Qin Shuo, who had been following behind him.
Qin Shuo naturally understood what the man was asking, glanced down at the time on his watch, and immediately replied, "Your Excellency, the person will arrive soon." β
Tang Su was elected president, and Qin Shuo was naturally promoted to the chief secretary by his side, and now Qin Shuo is one of the most trusted people around him, and many things are naturally handled by him.
The man nodded, his gaze once again as if inadvertently swept over a certain part of the crowd, the two bodies that were almost close together, not only did not intend to separate, but became more and more like you and me.
Lin Ziyi kept looking at An Yize, and after about a minute of intense ideological struggle, she finally hid the anger and fierceness in her eyes, "Okay, I'll go!"
An Yize smiled, everyone watched, and at the same time, when Lin Ziyi was completely unexpected, he suddenly lowered his head and dropped a kiss on Lin Ziyi's forehead.
"Let's go, let's go now. β
Lin Ziyi's body was completely stiff for a moment, and after she reacted, An Yize's big palm had already clasped her waist and began to hug her and walk in the direction of the man.
One step, two steps, three steps...... Every step, Lin Ziyi was driven by An Yize's big palm, obviously the floor under her feet was so smooth and flat, but at this moment, Lin Ziyi only felt that her feet were full of thorns, and every time she stepped on it, countless thorns pierced the soles of her feet, making her dare not take a second step forward.
Not far away, An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen saw their own son and Lin Ziyi coming over, their faces couldn't help but sink again, and they deliberately walked away, avoiding the two of them.
Step by step, just when Lin Ziyi was still four or five steps away from the man, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open from the outside with a "coax", and the sound of chaotic footsteps quickly reached everyone's ears from far and near.
Almost unanimously, everyone's eyes were cast in the direction of the gate, and they saw government workers in uniform striding in the direction of An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen.
An Yize seemed to have a premonition of something, his footsteps stopped, and his handsome eyebrows couldn't help but twist up.
An Xiyan, who was beside Tang Su, saw the twenty-odd people who suddenly broke in, and couldn't help but snort coldly, "Asu, who are they, you dare to break into your inaugural ball casually!" β
The man lifted his eyes and glanced at An Xiyan with a frost-dyed cold gaze, and his two thin sexy lips were pursed, but he didn't say a word.
"Vice President An, we are investigators of the Special Operations Group, and we suspect that you are involved in a number of vicious explosions three months ago, please come with us. Under the surprised eyes of everyone, one of the government workers took out the investigation order in his hand and displayed it in front of An Guobang, his voice was serious and powerful.
An Guobang and Fu Yuzhen looked at the investigation order in front of them, their faces were a little pale, and their eyes widened in disbelief.
When An Yize saw this scene, the hand that was clasped on Lin Ziyi's waist tightened, and there was a touch of coldness between the originally gentle eyebrows, but he was silent and did nothing.
Because, at this time, even if he has the heart, he can't do anything.
Compared with An Yize's calmness, An Xiyan was obviously much more flustered, she grabbed Tang Su's arm and looked at him with a panicked face, "Asu, they must have made a mistake, my dad must have been framed, don't you care?"
The man glanced at An Xiyan lightly again, and quietly pulled his arm out of her hands, in front of everyone, even if he had more dissatisfaction with An Xiyan in his heart, he could only hook his lips lightly, and said with a hint of reassurance in his tone, "The special task force only suspects Vice President An that has something to do with the bombing now, and the matter is inconclusive, you don't need to be too nervous." β
"But ......"
Just as An Xiyan was still thinking about something, a government worker had already come to Tang Su and said respectfully, "I'm sorry, Mr. President, because our work has disturbed your dance party tonight." β
The man bowed slightly, and only replied unhurriedly, "Work matters." β
"Thank you, Mr. President, for your understanding and support of our work!" After speaking, the staff turned to the other staff behind him and ordered, "Come on, take Vice President An away." β
"Yes. Several staff members immediately stepped forward and reached out to take An Guobang away.
An Guobang glanced at Tang Su fiercely with a cold gaze, snorted coldly, and said coldly to the staff who were about to stretch out his hand, "Take your hands away, I will leave by myself." β
At this time, arrest means that the crime is added to the first degree.
The staff who was about to make a move glanced at his head, and the person standing in front of Tang Su nodded slightly, signaling that if An Guobang was not arrested, there was no need to do anything.
"Please, Vice President Ann. β
An Guobang snorted again and strode out.
Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't believe that a series of explosions during the presidential election a few months ago could be related to Anguobang.
"Guobang ......" Fu Yuzhen came back to her senses and immediately chased after her.
"Asu......" An Xiyan looked at Tang Su with a pleading face, "Help ......"
It's just that before An Xiyan's words came out, the man swept over with a cold look, and An Xiyan immediately shrank her neck and shut up.
At this time, she didn't want to get into trouble with Tang Su because of her father, and in the end, she couldn't even be the president's wife.
Anyway, she has been married to Tang Su for so long, and the wedding date has been set, Tang Su can't divorce her because of her father.
A few steps away, Lin Ziyi looked at An Guobang who was being carried, came back to his senses, and couldn't help but cast his eyes on a certain man again.
And every time, as long as her gaze is cast in his direction, she will be accurately caught by his gaze.
This time was no exception, so after the four eyes met in the air for a moment, Lin Ziyi quickly withdrew his gaze, and his whole heart beat like a thunder drum inexplicably.
The man's eyes just now seemed to be saying - go back and clean you up!
Lin Ziyi lowered her head and pulled the corners of her lips self-deprecatingly, she must have thought too much.
