Chapter 10: Another Encounter
The dance party was held at the Hilton Hotel, and when the car was parked in front of the door, a doorman offered to meet and help park the car.
The whole hotel is like a palace castle, resplendent and beautiful, with crystal lamps reflecting the fine carved beams and paintings, full of strong European court atmosphere, like being in a fairy tale.
Xia Sheng smiled and stretched out his arm to Hua Tao, the green-eyed noble son was so harmonious with everything around him, and he was like a real prince, charming and elegant.
Hua Tao took Xia Sheng's arm and walked into the lobby, and the waiter at the entrance politely stopped them, and then motioned for them to step aside and choose masks.
"Masquerade?" Hua Tao looked at Xia Sheng in surprise.
"Not really," Xia Sheng picked up a mask casually, and pulled out a faint smile on his thin lips, "Wu Lao Tong is still young, and he always likes to play tricks at the ball." β
Wu Lao in Xia Sheng's mouth is the owner of Tai'an Jewelry Store and the organizer of this ball.
Hua Tao looked at the masks, they were all half-faced, and there were many shapes, she picked them out with great interest for a while, and finally took a fancy to a fox demon mask.
Xia Sheng couldn't help but smile and asked, "Do you have a phobia of choice?" β
Hua Tao was suddenly a little embarrassed: "I seem to have wasted a lot of time." β
Xia Sheng said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, in addition to money, what I am most willing to squander is time." β
Hua Tao: "......"
Xia Sheng smiled: "You can also help me pick one." β
Hua Tao silently picked up a retro jazz mask.
"It's a quick pick." Xia Sheng pretended to be unhappy and sighed, "Alas, it's so perfunctory to me." β
Hua Tao was amused by his appearance, and said with a smile: "I didn't just pick my own just now. β
Xia Sheng put on the mask and asked her, "Am I handsome?" β
Hua Tao said: "Do you still need to ask? Mr. Xia is simply handsome. β
Xia Sheng smiled even more: "Come, give you a chance to show off." The arm was stretched out.
Hua Tao is as kind as a stream, holding his arm, looking like a little bird.
The two walked into the venue and immediately attracted countless amazing eyes.
Especially Xia Sheng.
Even with a mask, it can't hide his charming demeanor and elegant temperament.
The ladies and ladies all looked over, and they were like wolves and tigers.
The dance party went through the process, first the master of ceremonies came to the stage to speak, welcoming all the guests to the scene or something, and then the representative of the organizer came to the stage to give a speech, which was shorter than what the master of ceremonies said.
Then the ball officially began.
Most of the people shook the red wine in their goblets, and they were in groups of three or five, chatting and laughing.
Hua Tao and Xia Sheng belong to the minority, dancing to the music.
Others come here to take the opportunity to make friends with powerful people and expand their contacts, I'm afraid only Xia Dashao is really just for dancing and indulging in fun.
The end of the music means that the dance partners will be exchanged, and the green-eyed nobleman has become a sweet spot in the dance hall, and the ladies are all gearing up and waiting for the opportunity to move.
Hua Tao had no intention of getting involved in this dispute, and immediately withdrew after the dance.
Anyway, the noble son is in love, invincible, and there are more means to deal with wild bees and butterflies.
"Miss, it's an honor to dance with you." The mellow and laughing voice was close at hand, and when Hua Tao reacted, the next dance music had already sounded.
And the person in front of her is her new dance partner.
Hua Tao nodded politely at the other party, her eyes swept over the other party's face, wearing a golden mask, which was extravagant.
"My name is Chen Shimin, dare to ask Miss Fang's name?"
Hua Tao was taken aback by the other party's name, but her dancing steps were skillful and unaffected.
No wonder I felt the voice familiar just now, it turned out to be an acquaintance.
Hua Tao didn't intend to reveal her identity, so she shook her head at him, but smiled silently.
Chen Shimin is not reluctant, and has always been kind and courteous to her.
Hua Tao sighed while dancing, where will the end of the world not meet.
But for some people, it's better to miss each other than to see each other.
No, not even nostalgia.
In just a short dance, Chen Shimin asked her six or seven questions, and she didn't get angry when she didn't get a response.
Hua Tao felt that this man was really strange, and said that she was stunted and unattractive before, but when she turned around, she rushed to please again, and said sweet words and good words.
"Miss, when this song is over, shall we go over there for a drink?" Chen Shimin has a lot of experience and is thick-skinned, even if he can see that the other party doesn't want to deal with him, he is not discouraged.
Hua Tao smiled politely and shook her head slightly.
Chen Shimin sighed, he could feel his disappointment through the mask, but he still kept trying: "Then wait until the dance is over, can I ......?"
The music stopped, Hua Tao didn't listen to him, and directly changed her dance partner.
Whoever says women are fickle creatures, men are just as fickle, but also superficial and stupid.
"Your smile matches your mask." Xia Sheng smiled and asked, "What bad idea are you fighting?" β
Cunning and mischievous, a little fox alive.
Hua Tao smiled and said, "I'm just wondering how Xia Dashao escaped from the hands of that group of celebrities who are like wolves and tigers." β
In Hua Tao's eyes, Xia Sheng was like a magician, and at the end of the dance, he appeared gracefully, reaching out to him calmly, with a perfect and charming smile on the corner of his lips.
At that moment, the heartbeat was uncontrollable. The people around him were all mosaic, and it was a blur, except for the prince with a retro jazz mask, clear and clear.
"Then tell me first, what's going on with that dance partner just now?" Xia Sheng saw clearly, his intuition was keen, and he smelled the unusual smell between the two.
"Didn't I just ignore him?" Hua Tao didn't want to say much, and she didn't think there was anything to say.
Xia Sheng said thoughtfully: "It's not like your temper." β
"What kind of temper am I?" Hua Tao was happy, and the noble son seemed to know her very well.
Xia Sheng said: "You won't embarrass people for no reason. β
Hua Tao couldn't refute it.
Hua Yunruo taught her to be kind to others since she was a child, and she is really not the kind of naΓ―ve and willful person.
"He's my blind date." The melody of the dance music was gentle and melodious, and Hua Tao simply wrapped her neck around his neck, leaned her head on his shoulder, and whispered to him the reason for the incident.
In a few words, it is not detailed, just a general outline, but everything that should be said has been said.
Xia Sheng wrapped his hands around her slender waist and listened attentively, the more he listened, the more interesting he felt, and finally laughed in a low voice.
"If you let him know that you are the person he once went on a blind date, he will definitely regret it." Xia Sheng said.
Hua Tao snorted lightly: "Isn't it just a beautiful dress, men are really superficial creatures." β
"It's not superficial, it's that he can't look at women." Xia Sheng corrected.
Hua Tao couldn't help but quip: "Xia Dashao's gaze at a woman must be very accurate." β
"Yes," Xia Sheng said unashamedly, "it turns out that it is true." β
"Where are the facts?" Hua Tao asked with a smile. It's so powerful, you don't have to spend money to rent a girlfriend tonight.
Xia Sheng looked at her and said, "You." β
"Huh?" Hua Tao was stunned.
"Didn't you notice that nearly half of the men in the audience threw jealous glances at me." Xia Sheng lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his breath warmly in his ears.
"What about the other half?" Playboy's words could not be believed, and Peach laughed at it.
"The other half are ashamed of themselves and are convinced of me."
Hua Tao lay on his shoulder and laughed.
Xia Sheng is the most arrogant and arrogant person she has ever seen, and he is also the most arrogant and arrogant person with capital.
