Chapter 160: Who You Like?
The dance party started at 8 p.m., and Joanna asked Matthew to drive her and Si Qian back home, and then began to dress up and put on makeup. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Qian, I find that you have a really good eye" Joanna opened the shoe cabinet and began to pick out shoes, "Your dance partner will most likely be the king of the prom tonight." Did you already know that TNE is actually very good? How about these shoes? It's so good with your long white dress. ”
She pulled out a pair of purple heels.
"It's too long." Si Qian shook her head, "I'll still choose a shorter one, I'm not used to being too tall...... I didn't know he was so athletic, and I invited him only because I only had a male friend he was familiar with. ”
"Really?". Joanna was a little surprised, "Don't you like him?" Normally, the Homecoming Day dance is for boys to invite girls, if it's a girl inviting a boy...... There is another layer of meaning. ”
Si Qian's face flushed slightly when she heard this, but then she was also shocked by her words: "Is this the case?" Then why didn't you remind me at the time? ”
She had no idea that there was such a custom.
It's over, I don't know if he knows about it, if he does......
Thinking of this, Si Qian's face became even redder, and she tried hard to recall the scene when she invited Lin Hong, but she really couldn't remember Lin Hong's expression at that time.
Joanna looked at Si Qian with a smile: "You Chinese are just too reserved, you like it if you like it, why are you embarrassed." Try this pair, pink, which also goes well with it, and the sole is not very thick. ”
Si Qian took the pink leather shoes she handed over and fought back: "You accepted Arthur's invitation, does it mean that you mean something to Arthur?" ”
"Arthur?" Joanna thought about it for a moment, "I don't dislike him, he's quite cute, and he's a relatively reliable person." I kind of understand now that men who are too good are more attentive, and it is safer to find an honest man as a boyfriend. ”
Joanna sat down at the dressing table and began to touch up her makeup and hair.
"Qian, if you don't like ne yet, I suggest you keep your distance from him, he is so good at such a young age, I don't know how many beautiful girls will like him in the future...... Even if he's not a flowery person, you'll be tired and worried about all his things. ”
Si Qian, who was trying on shoes, suddenly stopped the movement in her hand when she heard her words, and after thinking for a while, she smiled:
"Anna, is this what you've learned from Carter?".
Joanna shook her head: "This is what my mother told me. ”
Si Qian was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and it was hard to say anything more.
Next, Joanna began to trim her hair.
Western girls have coarse pores and a lot of hair, and it took Joanna more than ten minutes to get this painful thing done with the help of Si Qian. She was very envious of Si Qian, her skin was very delicate, white and crystalline, and she didn't have to suffer this sin at all.
After changing into dresses, they applied pink nail polish to their nails, for this, Si Qian did it for the first time, and originally didn't want to do this, but Joanna said that every girl would paint it, saying that it would be very beautiful, and Si Qian had to follow the local customs.
As they ate some fruit salad for dinner at home, they remembered the honking of a car outside.
"Princess Qianqian, go, your prince is already here," Joanna quipped, and immediately picked up a small bag and trotted out with joy.
Si Qian followed behind with a slightly red face.
"Wow, you're so beautiful today," Matthew said with his praise without hesitation.
After the car, Lin Hong said to Si Qian in Chinese: "This white dress is very beautiful. ”
Si Qian blurted out and asked, "You mean, it's just that the clothes are beautiful?" ”
"Uh...... Of course, people are prettier. Lin Hong said innocently.
Seeing him like this, Si Qian laughed "poof".
Compared to Lin Hong, Arthur is even worse, since Joanna sat next to him, he began to speak a little out of tune, but fortunately, Joanna knew that his character did not mind, but deliberately laughed to reduce his tension.
After Matthew drove the car to the school, he let them off in advance, saying that he wanted to find a place to park and let them go in first. He really couldn't stand the two pairs who were always whispering and flirting. Besides, he was alone, of course he didn't have the face to go in with them, so it was better to sneak in while others weren't paying attention.
There were a lot of people attending the ball today, and the parking spaces near the dance venue were full, so Arthur had no choice but to move the car to a farther place, and finally found a vacant seat, and immediately hung up the reverse gear, turned the steering wheel and reversed it.
Once you have parked your car, turn off the engine and lock the door. Matthew walked towards the dance venue, but at this time, he saw a red bridge car in front of him also parking, but the other party's technology didn't seem to be very good, because there was only a parking space in the middle, it was reversed many times and it was not parked well, as if he was afraid of scratching the car next to him.
Matthew stood there and watched for a moment, then eventually walked over and knocked on the window.
The window rolled down, and inside sat a long-haired girl wearing black-rimmed glasses.
"Hello, do you need help?".
"Great, you're so good, I poured it several times and couldn't pour it in." The girl nodded and grinned, revealing a mouth full of gray metal braces.
Matthew didn't have any mental barriers to this, he had had orthodontics and braces for several months.
Letting the girl get out of the car, Matthew drove forward for some distance, then reversed, hit the steering wheel, and reversed the car smoothly.
"When reversing, drive forward for a certain distance, then kill the steering wheel in the direction of the parking space, and when you are halfway there, then hit the steering wheel straight ......"
Arthur handed the key to the steel-toothed girl and explained to her the essentials of how to reverse the car into the parking space.
"Thank you very much"
After thanking her, the girl introduced her name, Jenny, who had also come to the back-to-school ball.
Seeing that she was single, Matthew couldn't help but move in his heart, pretending to be casual, and asked, "What about your dance partner?" Already in the market? ”。
"I don't have a dance partner." Jenny's face turned lonely, she opened her mouth and pointed to her teeth, "You know, no one wants to invite Steel Tooth to be their dance partner. ”
Xiu shook his head, "Orthodontics is a normal thing, isn't it?" I've done it before. Since you don't have a dance partner...... So, I don't know if I have the honor to invite you to be my dance partner today? ”
After saying this, Matthew looked at her expectantly, everything was so natural.
Jenny was slightly stunned, and suddenly smiled happily: "Why not Ynt?" ”
“ye!”
Matthew cheered inwardly, then stretched out his right hand, and Jenny immediately grabbed his arm.
Matthew was halfway in a happy mood when he suddenly paused.
"I almost forgot, I still haven't got anything to get Jenny, you wait here for a while, I'll be back."
After saying that, Matthew immediately ran towards his car, took a single room satchel from it, and ran back again.
"What's in there?" Jenny wondered. After all, it's a bit strange to go to the prom with such a thing.
"Ha, good thing, I'll tell you later, keep it a secret first."
※※※※※
The dance hall was beautifully decorated, and at the top of the center of the hall, there was a huge laser light ball, constantly rotating, lighting up the venue in a flickering light. At the top, there are also some colorful lights flickering, and huge golden starfish are dotted among them, which is very dreamy. In the center of the venue, there is also an electronic fountain with colorful lighting effects, which is very beautiful.
The people who entered the venue were all girls in dresses holding in suits, and they were dressed up beautifully, as if they were attending a ball in the adult world.
Lin Hong, who was wearing a black suit, and Si Qian, who was wearing a white dress, walked through the long lantern corridor and entered the dance venue.
The music coming from my ears was a relatively beautiful and slow unknown dance music, and in the center of the venue, there were already many people dancing as a duet, and around the venue, there were some tables and chairs for resting. Others are taking pictures with their cameras to make a memento of their high school life.
"Hey, TNE, you're finally here"
As soon as Lin Hong entered the venue, Carter immediately came to him, his dance partner was a short-haired girl with deep eye shadow, and a nose ring on her nose, which looked very fashionable.
Before he arrived, Joanna had dragged Arthur to the dance floor.
"This is your dance partner? It's so beautiful and glad to meet you, I'm Carter. TNE, why did you slip away alone today? We've got a lot of people waiting for you to celebrate."
No one knew better than Carter how difficult it would be to win today's game, but he knew that two more Tigers were added to Milton High School, but despite this, they still lost. Although the team's coordination is also very important, without TNE's constant scoring, they have no chance of winning.
Carter said hello to Si Qian, and then pulled Lin Hong to the side and asked the school team center who was taking pictures of others to take a group photo of him and Lin Hong.
When the members of the school team saw TNE, they asked to take a photo with Lin Hong, and finally more and more people knew that TNE was No. 21, and everyone surrounded him and took a group photo one by one, which made Lin Hong very depressed. In the end, Carter saw that his face was a little impatient, so he stepped forward to relieve him and let him regain his freedom.
Lin Hong pulled Si Qian, walked to a corner chair and sat down, and was relieved to see that no one noticed him anymore.
"You don't seem used to this kind of occasion?"
When Si Qian saw him like this, there was a smile in her clear eyes.
"yes, I'm actually scared of that."
Lin Hong made no secret of this shortcoming.
"I have an inexplicable fear of this kind of scene, and when everyone's eyes are focused on me, I feel uncomfortable. This feeling was especially evident in the past, but it has changed since I grew up. Lin Hong took a long breath, "It's been like this since I was a child, I like to stay alone in a corner where I don't pay attention." In psychology, this symptom is generally called social phobia. ”
Si Qian's eyes lit up when she heard this: "You still have research in psychology?" ”
"Hehe, I don't talk about research, but I've read a few books on this subject."
"What do you like to do? What are your hobbies? ”
"Hobbies? Seeing, exercising, and tinkering with some electronic stuff, such as radio, computers, and so on. ”
Si Qian put both hands on the table, then supported her chin in a V-shape, looked at Lin Hong, and continued to ask:
"Before, you said you weren't from Beijing? Where is your hometown? ”
"I'm from Lingnan Province, and my hometown is in a small mountain village in the east of Lingnan, where I grew up."
……
The two sat here, playing a game of questions and answers, as if Si Qian was interviewing him, and Lin Hong answered a lot of questions before realizing that this seemed a little silly and boring.
"Uh...... Shouldn't we do something else? ”
"Wait, I'll have you a question at the end." Si Qian's face was very red at the moment, but fortunately, the lights were dim and no one could see it. It may be because of this that she has become very bold at the moment, "Do you have anyone you like?" ”
"Someone you like? Yes. My father, master, and my good buddy Wuzi...... Well, and my mom. ”
"......" Si Qian's face was black, and she had to remind, "I mean girls." ”
Now Lin Hong finally understood what he meant, he looked at Si Qian in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time.
Si Qian is a girl after all, and it is bold enough to be able to ask such a question, which she only has the courage to ask under the influence of Joanna. As a result, Lin Hong looked at her like this, she was immediately embarrassed, quickly sat up straight, and said softly: "It's inconvenient to say it, forget it." ”
"Nope."
This is the truth, Lin Hong really never thought about this question, although after hearing Si Qian's words, Xu Wenjing's appearance flashed in his mind, but he didn't think that he liked the other party, just a little good. Of course, if Lin Hong wants to make it clear now, he can't say what he likes.
After hearing Lin Hong's words, Si Qian's face couldn't help but smile.
"Let's stop sitting here and dance."
Lin Hong was stunned: "Dancing? I won't. ”
"You can't learn it, in fact, dancing is very simple, go, I'll teach you."
After speaking, Si Qian couldn't help but take Lin Hong's hand and walked towards the dance floor.
At this time, Lin Hong saw that at the entrance, Ma Xian walked in with a girl wearing glasses, with a smile on her face and a spring breeze.
Lin Hong's face couldn't help but show a knowing smile, and in a blink of an eye, Matthew successfully found a dance partner and was really happy for him.
