Chapter 38: Dancing Together
Not necessarily everyone is going to go, but his strange attitude like a war book makes people not want to go at all, except for Ji.
He had never been to such an occasion and did not even feel comfortable wearing a suit.
The professor is an arrogant old man, and the attitude of the other party makes him inevitably unhappy, and he has a desire to win.
The young master must not go.
"If you can use it one day, you might as well wear it and look at it." The lady looked at the evening dress, but she did not expect his words to come true so quickly.
She has high heels, right? The lady frowned bitterly and looked at the cabinet, and there was indeed a pair, black, which did not match at all.
For God's sake......
Tuk-tuk.
Someone was knocking on her door.
The lady walked over and opened the door, and it was the old gentleman, who was holding the gown in her hand, and asked, "What's the matter?" β
The professor gave her a square box.
Ladies don't have to guess what it is.
"I'm a little discouraged by your thoughtfulness." The lady smiled wryly.
"Put it on." The professor said to her. "It's a reward."
"Let you take a look, and it can be regarded as repaying you?" The lady smiled, walked into the room, and put her things on the bed.
"I bought them just to see you put them on." The professor stood in the doorway and smiled.
Nen Hong climbed up the lady's face, and she said angrily, "Is this teasing?" β
"Of course not." The professor laughed. "Beautiful clothes with beautiful ladies."
She said urgently, "Please close the door!" I'm going to change my clothes! β
The professor smiled and closed the door.
Long-lost dress.
The lady sighed.
The last time she was dressed like this, her motives were not pure at all, and it could even be said that she harbored evil intentions, but it was a work need, and there was no way. It's a rarity, the shoes Lanchester buys are not big or small. Did he know too much?
The bag given by the young master was not suitable for carrying, so she still kept it, walked out of the door, pondered for a while, and went to Ji's room.
"Need help?" She asked with a smile.
Ji Qing scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Do I look so confused?" β
"Yes." The lady smiled at him, "You can not go, ah, how does the old saying go, 'To die is to live to be guilty'?" β
Ji Qing's face was a little red, and he muttered: "If I really want to save face, I won't let you help." β
The lady laughed and was amused by him, he looked at the lady in the white evening dress and asked, "Have you ever participated in this kind of event?" β
"Yes, at work." She sighed. "For a task, I learned ballroom dancing for half a month."
Ji Qing only has one suit, it seems that he has nothing to choose, he is shorter than the professor and the young master, and he can't borrow it, he is already a little cramped, the lady smiled: "It seems that we are very similar." β
"The only thing I can use is this one, or someone else gave it, you just happen that no one gave it to you, and I just happen to be sent by someone."
Ji Qing smiled shyly: "Madame's comfort skills are really unique. β
I didn't feel comforted at all!
......
The professor deigned to be the driver.
I don't know what he's thinking today.
They booked a seaside restaurant, and it took a while to drive, but there were three men of the four of them, and the professor was reaching out to her, and he was inviting her to be his dance partner tonight.
The lady had no way to refuse, in every sense, so she politely took the old gentleman's hand.
The young master and Ji walked in front, looking back at the professor who was walking beside the lady in a dress, and glanced at each other, Ji Qing smiled, and the young master sighed: "Sometimes they still look very compatible." β
"That's what I usually think, and we call it 'happy enemies.'" Ji Qing said with a smile.
Reinhard received them as they entered, glanced at the professor and the lady, and returned his gaze to his brother, who had been in high spirits for such occasions before, and now though there was a little gloom, at least he could still see the shadow of before.
After taking off his coat and entering the hall, there was no habit of announcing the names of the ladies at the ball at Egembio, but fortunately there was no such thing, and the lady stood beside him with the hand of the old gentleman, and he smiled: "You are beautiful today." β
The lady couldn't stop him from praising herself, and asked him in a low voice: "Then I'm usually very mediocre?" β
The professor smiled and said, "No, you are usually good-looking, and tonight is especially good-looking." β
Wang Xizhi blushed and said softly, "Thank you." β
"You've been extra shy lately." He invited her on the dance floor.
For the first opening dance, he had to dance with his partner, and the last one was the same.
"Could it be that when you say good things, you like me to treat me coldly?" The lady forced her face and asked.
"Still can't." The professor smiled and took her by the arm, and the lady took his arm, this time not looking at his tie, but at his light blue eyes.
After all, this time, with a valid reason to look at him, aren't they in a dance partner relationship now? Why can't you just look at your partner's face and eyes?
"I didn't expect it." The professor whispered, swaying with her. "I thought I needed to take my time, you're more skilled than I thought."
After all, she doesn't seem to be a person who is good at this, and many times it seems to be too stereotypical.
"So, have you learned? Lanchesterγ The lady replied to him lightly, "A lot of times, don't jump to conclusions. β
The professor nodded thoughtfully, "Learned." β
At the end of the dance, the lady let go of him, he took the lady's hand and asked, "Are you going to rest?" β
"Questions?" The lady asked.
"Nope." The professor let go of his hand, but left the dance floor with her.
The lady asked for a glass of rum at the bar and sat next to Ji, but before the professor could follow, she was stopped by a lady to speak.
He smiled and struck up a conversation.
The lady looked at Ji, smiled slightly, and asked, "Is it really that uncomfortable?" β
He's in this kind of place, and he's just drinking.
"I won't." He seemed a little embarrassed.
"Where's the young master?" She asked.
"There." Ji Qing pointed in a direction with his eyes. "His brother's schoolgirl."
In the corner of the dance floor, the young master was dancing with a young and beautiful lady.
"It's rare for you to dress so beautifully and dance for a while?" Ji Qing asked.
"I don't like this kind of activity, it's etiquette." She raised her glass. "And Lanchester can't always jump with me."
It would be rude and rude to dance with only one lady all night.
"Wouldn't it be nice to start from the beginning?" Ji Qing said.
"Your Chinese teacher will be very pleased to hear it." The lady smiled and glanced in the direction of the old gentleman, who was surrounded by three ladies in the center, talking and laughing, all of whom looked like distinguished ladies.
Only she knew that her skin was borrowed, and it would be revealed in its original form after tonight, and she did not have their grace and nobility.
Oh, the only time she can get involved with the word "expensive" is probably when she buys vegetables, and she dislikes the fact that the food is expensive again.
"Miss, can I ask you to dance along?" She was sitting sideways at the bar when Reinhard approached her, smiling and asking.
Ji Qing looked at him for a while, and his impression of him was not very good, which made him resist this man's laughter.
If she was in the office, she could play a little temper with the people she knew, but not so well here, and the ladies who were out after the knot was untied were very polite.
So she smiled and refused: "Sorry sir, I'm a little tired." β
"Is it a gunshot wound on your left arm?"
Although it is not obvious, it is easy to see that she is wearing such clothes.
"Yes."
"I just want to see what the lady does." He smiled slightly, still in the same arc. "What's the difference between an ugly duckling and a white swan?"
"The white swan is an ugly duckling." The lady smiled faintly.
"I'm so sorry I couldn't see it when we met that day." He laughed, "Or maybe there aren't any swans at all." β
Ji Qing felt serious discomfort in his attitude, unlike when he first met Wang, Wang was just cold and sharp, this person was malicious. This turned out to be Senior Li's brother?
The lady frowned, she was a little angry.
