Chapter 39, Liu Qingqing's birthday party
"Alas, even if I have that intention, Young Master Lu won't accept my affection! Probably Mrs. Lu can attract Young Master Lu's heart more than me! β
Ye Peiyu stood on the stage, listening to Liu Qingqing's yin and yang strange mockery. It's like being stripped naked and pointing fingers in public.
What kind of mentality did Lu Ruicheng have to let her come to Liu Qingqing's party, could it be that she really wanted to see her jokes?
"Let's get straight to the point!" Liu Qingqing said with high spirits, and then put a feather-like mask on Ye Peiyu's face. "Tonight is destined to be a good night, where you have no other identity, we are just a simple gender difference. Take advantage of it and indulge to your heart's content! Also, your husband won't be for the time being. β
Liu Qingqing approached Ye Peiyu's ear and said proudly.
She had never heard of such absurd rules of the game, could it be that these rich children were just let go? On the contrary, it was her heart that went up and down.
Soon, stage lighting ceased to be a color. The hall also resounded with energetic dance music, and the men and women on the dance floor were in a commotion, which was undoubtedly an aphrodisiac. Liu Qingqing's natural snake-like figure makes people unable to take their eyes off the dance floor.
On the contrary, Ye Peiyu is like a piece of wood. With stiff limbs and uncoordinated steps, she was simply squeezed out with the crowd.
She wanted to end there and hurry home, but the crowd was really like an ebb and flow, and she couldn't help but control her pace and be pushed around.
"Take it easy and follow my steps." Suddenly, an extremely warm voice rang in her ears, and a large broad palm rested on her shoulder and placed it on her waist. The two have a surprisingly tacit understanding, and the dance steps are light and graceful. "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and then it is good to learn it."
Warm voice, patient guidance. How long has it been since you felt a familiar scene, a month or a year or a few years?
"I'm sorry, I'm incongruous." Although the man was very patient and guided, Ye Peiyu still made frequent mistakes, and her feet were always stretched out or withdrawn at inopportune times, so that she always stepped on the man's feet.
"It's okay, I enjoy this feeling very much, after all, the previous green years are gone, and it's too late to reminisce."
This call poked Ye Peiyu's heart, as if the previous feelings poured out, and it was bitter after slowly retreating. In the big feather mask, those apricot eyes were stained with tears. Indeed, the body and mind are comfortable.
"Pei Yu, I used to be naΓ―ve, I hope you understand." The man's voice was low, and every word reached her ears with clarity and precision. All around me was the breath of the man opposite. "If I could do it all over again, I would definitely make the most of the time we had together."
"I'm sorry." Hearing this, Ye Peiyu's heart jumped nervously, and the dance steps that she was slowly familiar with became flustered again. Another kick stomped on him, and the two stopped dancing.
"Are you really in love with Lu Ruicheng now?" The man in front of him suddenly seemed to be a different person, and the gentlemen and gentleness of the gentleman all dissipated, replaced by indifference. He slapped his big palm on her shoulder, and the two eyes in the mask stared at Ye Peiyu tightly: "Are you doing it for profit?" Hehe, just like I did at the beginning, for this stinky money! β
"What are you talking about? I don't understand! Ye Peiyu turned her face away, and her dancing steps stopped.
He didn't give up, but danced faster and faster, more and more towards the center of the dance floor. Ye Peiyu didn't coordinate her dance steps well, so her two feet didn't feel enough.
There must be a large number of excellent dancers in this kind of upper-class party, but Ye Peiyu doesn't know anything about dance. She's undoubtedly here, like an other. Being held by a man can keep her stable and not fall.
Her every move attracted a lot of attention.
On the contrary, Liu Qingqing's long skirt lined her like a water snake, tightly attached to Lu Ruicheng's body, and the graceful dance steps of the two were like a couple in the world, capturing the attention of the audience.
And Ye Peiyu's ugliness is what Liu Qingqing dreams of.
Ye Peiyu was secretly ridiculed and sarcastic behind her back. She couldn't stand this cramped environment anymore, and suddenly pushed the man in front of her away violently.
Since she doesn't fit in, then she shouldn't force herself, anyway, she doesn't belong here after all. Judging by their alienation and cold eyes, these people simply see her as an outlier.
Ye Peiyu pushed vigorously, and the direct result was that the man fell to the ground fiercely, making a muffled sound, and then the heavy mask on his face also fell to the ground with a soft sound.
This group of people seemed to like to join in the fun and like to watch the fun, and after the two of them made such a big noise, the originally chaotic music on the dance floor suddenly quieted down.
"I really can't figure out the rules of the game in high society, and only you in it can understand and accept it!" Ye Peiyu was angry and looked around at the people around her. He threw the feather mask on his face to the ground, kicked off the high heels on his feet, and stood on the dance floor unrestrained.
Ye Peiyu may be too carefree, her series of actions can arouse the resentment in people's hearts, Rao is the name of her own empty young lady, and she has blocked a lot of damage.
"Ye Peiyu!"
Ye Peiyu walked forward for a distance with a big grin, and a scolding came from behind her.
Just this angry reprimand with a surname, she knew that this was Lu Ruicheng's exclusive.
She didn't want to stop, she didn't want to be a joke or anything else in this chaotic party.
"Ruicheng..." Liu Qingqing stretched out his hand to grab Lu Ruicheng, but Lu Ruicheng didn't pay attention to her, but chased his wife away.
Ye Peiyu just cared about walking, and suddenly the whole person was taken up by the waist, and after a period of dizziness, her snort was filled with a familiar smell. Let the man lead her to the middle of the dance floor, where many eyes gather, and the whole process, she and Ben couldn't resist.
Lu Ruicheng's brisk steps took her. He seems to have magical powers, making people sway with him, Rao is Ye Peiyu, who doesn't know anything about dance, doesn't seem to be so stiff.
The two of them seem to have their own shining points. It's a dance that is not very good, but it makes the two of them dance a little bit, and the broken music starts again for them.
Liu Qingqing looked at the two of them unwillingly, this Lu Ruicheng, who was still dancing in front of her a few minutes ago, was still contaminated with his breath on her body. With a 'whoosh', she took off the extremely delicate mask and tugged at it tightly, her knuckles whitening with exertion.
Why is it in front of Lu Ruicheng. I will always be a flash in the pan. And Ye Peiyu is indeed like spring all year round.
She couldn't understand what kind of sacredness Ye Peiyu was, and she could always easily influence Lu Ruicheng's heart.
The melodious piano sound is elegant and intoxicating. Lu Ruicheng was completely in control of the dance between the two, and at the end of the day, the hand he placed on her waist was a little harder. Her whole body was clinging to him. Then, without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed Ye Peiyu's head and kissed it.
Her mind went blank for a moment, and her cheeks turned crimson when she reacted.
A lot of people around have started whistling and cheering. Ye Peiyu only felt uncomfortable, and twisted her body to avoid the kiss. However, Lu Ruicheng's warm lips fell down Ye Peiyu's chin and landed on his neck... Zhou Qi, who was not far away, looked at the photos on his phone with satisfaction, and was sincerely happy for the two of them.
"What do you want to do?" Ye Peiyu seized the opportunity, so she pushed Lu Ruicheng away from herself.
She was shy and anxious, and she didn't know why Lu Ruicheng's sudden kiss was. I had to walk out of the ballroom and escape from the cramped environment.
Liu Qingqing was already ready to look at the picture of the two chasing each other, and was indignant in her heart, but this scene was not staged for a long time.
Lu Ruicheng actually changed direction and walked straight towards Liu Qingqing. She was slightly moved in her heart, not knowing what this man was going to do.
There seems to be a guess in my head. Before the party began, she received a greeting from Mansha, and during the small talk, she learned that Lu Ruicheng went to the mall alone to choose a necklace.
At this time, buying a gift will definitely only be for yourself.
"Happy birthday." Although she couldn't see the other party's face clearly, she seemed to feel Lu Ruicheng's burning gaze.
"Thank you." She thanked her softly, only to see the man in front of her magically conjure a gift box from behind her.
Necklaces are worn in the most conspicuous position of girls. Lu Ruicheng is willing to buy a necklace for her, does it mean that he wants to declare sovereignty to her. Let everyone who sees the necklace know that she is his Lu Ruicheng's woman.
Liu Qingqing couldn't wait.
The high-end and atmospheric velvet gift box has become extraordinary in the hands of Lu Ruicheng. Her eyes looked at the open gift box without blinking, and when the gift box was opened, she was suddenly disappointed when she saw what was inside.
"It's... Be... Your gift to me? Liu Qingqing looked at the thing in front of him in disbelief.
"This hairpin doesn't suit you?" Inside the gift box lies a hairpin.
"No... "What about the symbolic necklace?" How embarrassed was he to ask.
Although hairpins and necklaces are also accessories, the meaning contained in them is very different.
The hairpin is pinned to the back of the head, and others can't see it at first glance. This does not play the role of asserting sovereignty, but makes people feel that it is just an accessory that can be played at will. Does this mean that she is just an ordinary person in his heart.
This no hairpin represents her birthday present, but what about the necklace? To whom do they be?
"The hairpin is very beautiful, you can bring it for me yourself." She tried to calm herself down.
The cool summer night still carries some residual warmth left by the day. She walked barefoot on the road like this, and everyone who passed by looked at her slightly. Maybe it's just that this high-end dress is too eye-catching, or maybe it doesn't match his behavior.
"Pei Yu...", there was a warm call behind him.
The sound was as deep as the bone marrow, and even without turning her head, she could still confirm the source of the sound.
"Peiyu, slow down." Xue Kai panted and stepped forward to block her way. "Put your shoes on."
waited until the person stood still in front of him, Ye Peiyu slowly raised his head. His eyes fell from above and circled around him.
"Are you still haunted by the past?" Xue Kai's words were full of repentance. "It's all my fault in the past, I shouldn't have hurt you, I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I beg you, don't ignore me for the sake of our friendship, okay?"
Camaraderie? What the hell is he trying to do to propose friendship with her?
Ye Peiyu has spent several years of her youth on this man, and she has loved it vigorously, but in the end, it was all interpreted as friendship by this man, how hurtful it is. He wanted to use this short incident of a few minutes to repent and gain his forgiveness.
"Just tell me your purpose, I don't have a lot of time to spend with you!" Ye Peiyu has long recognized his face, and she is not the innocent little girl she used to be, who can be coaxed in a few words.
"Peiyu, don't be angry."
"Hehe, how could I be angry? On the contrary, you came to find it, is it because the big lady who was next to you kicked you? β
"It's no surprise that you hate me, but I just want to talk to you."
The corners of Ye Peiyu's mouth twitched. I met by chance a few days ago, did he still show off his rich current girlfriend to him? What kind of drama is he planning in front of her now?
"I'm very sorry at the party, but it was all instructed by Liu Qingqing's woman." Xue Kai bought Liu Qingqing at the beginning.
"I don't think it's entirely her fault, it's also your fault that you promised! Not to mention the same smell! It's none of my business that you get close! Ye Peiyu's tone was very cold, she had never been such a cold person, this time she just put sad people and things in front of her. will arouse her hatred. "We don't have much more to say now, I hope you'll pay attention and respect me as a married person!" She admonished him coldly.
As soon as the words fell, Ye Peiyu turned around and walked along the road.
"Hehehe! You all think so about me! "The emotions hidden in Xue Kai's heart have completely exploded." You all think of me like this, and think I'm a man who eats soft rice. Be! That's what I am, but what's the solution? I was not born with a golden spoon in my mouth and was destined to work harder than others. But I can't control my life, and I want to continue my family's hope and build up a company that is about to fail. Therefore, I had to seek help from rich people. I also want to live and support my family. Love seems insignificant in front of these things, so I give up on you. β
Xue Kai approached his hoarse throat and said the last word. Ye Peiyu's body couldn't help but tremble, her footsteps stopped unconsciously, and she slowly turned her head to look at Xue Kai behind her.
Why did this remark still stir her emotions, she knew that he must be in pain now, and life must be very sad.
"You broke up with your previous girlfriend, you don't need to be so decadent!" Ye Peiyu still turned back and handed over the tissue in her hand.
"Peiyu, you know what? I've had so many girlfriends since we broke up, but none of them have ever touched my heart. Only you linger in my heart for a long time. Xue Kai took the tissue she handed over and held it with his hand.
"Calm down." Ye Peiyu wanted to withdraw his hand, but he held it tightly and didn't let go.
"Pei Yu, is there still a possibility between us? I miss you so much. Xue Kai's words seemed to be very casual, and Ye Peiyu didn't know if he was thinking from the heart.
"Xue Kai, I think you must have some difficulty, you can bring this up, if I can help, I will definitely help. As for the two of us, it's impossible. Now, after that, it's all gone! Ye Peiyu won't make the same mistake twice, even if she is an older leftover girl, she won't reconcile with him.
"I..." Hearing this, Xue Kai sighed that Ye Peiyu was still the kind she was before, and he only moved her with a few words.
