Section 176 The First Evening Party
"The main event?" Ye Zhong asked puzzledly, in his opinion, this meal has been eaten, and it is time for the end of the song to disperse.
"Well, in general, there is an evening party after dinner, and of course, this refers to the upper circles. The role of the evening party is also used for interpersonal communication, but compared to dinner, the means of communication are more abundant and free, and not as formal as at the dinner table.
Here they tend to exchange some news with each other, and they usually don't choose to talk about business at the party. To be precise, this should be a leisure activity. But for young people, it's an important stage to show their charm. Well, this is also the circle of life of those noble ladies. Hey, after all that, I guess you still don't understand! You'll find out later! "It's endless, and it looks like an expert.
Ye Zhong said indifferently: "Whatever! He knew very well that this was definitely not the life he wanted, and what he had to do was to listen to the advice of the martyr, and not to behave too blindly at this time, after all, he didn't know anything about these etiquettes, and it was not a pleasant thing to make any jokes. He was just curious that he would be interested in these things.
The table was quickly removed, and many small tables were set up, filled with all kinds of cut fruit, wine, and desserts. The center of the hall was vacated, and the surrounding area was filled with sofas. The merchant's servants were busy at a rapid pace. High-quality holographic sound sources on the ceiling provide the highest quality sound quality.
Soothing and melodious music wafted through the hall, and everyone walked into the hall one after another.
"Yezi, don't stand here stupidly, pick up a glass of wine, even if you don't drink it, you have to make a show." Remind Ye Chong.
Hearing this, Ye Chongyan immediately picked up a glass of red wine from the table next to him, and continued: "You move around slowly now, and when you meet someone, you can show your friendliness by raising a glass slightly." If you see the other person raise a glass, you should also raise your glass! The movement is soothing and natural. ”
"It's boring!" Ye Zhong muttered in his heart.
"Hey, leaf, is this called boredom? Don't worry, the boredom is still to come! The smile sounded a bit ill-intentioned.
At this time, many people entered the hall, and every man usually had a female companion by his side, and Shang Changming walked around at this time, and when he met an acquaintance, he smiled and nodded and raised his glass.
Robert walked up to Ye Chong, also holding a glass of wine in his hand, and said with a smile while raising a glass to Ye Chong: "Brother Wang, don't be too restrained, there are a lot of beauties in the meeting!" People are not romantic teenagers, but it's a pity that they can't see Brother Wang's might, otherwise, I'm afraid that Brother Wang will be drowned by a beauty! Ha ha! ”
Ye Chong didn't have any reaction to this kind of joke at all, Ye Chong learned Robert's posture, raised his glass in return, and said lightly: "The boss has won the award!" ”
Yan praised: "Yezi, this action just now was good!" ”
When Robert saw Ye Chong's expression, he was also interested, and walked away with a haha.
There were more and more people in the hall, and for this party, Shang Changming invited almost all the famous characters of Richstar.
Ye Zhong held the wine glass and walked aimlessly. Seeing Ye Chong's cold face, few people raised a glass to Ye Chong along the way, and Ye Chong was also happy. It's just that Ye Zhong felt that the eyes of many women were drifting towards him, which made him feel very uncomfortable, but whenever he tilted his head slightly, these eyes would quickly flash away like frightened small animals. It made Ye Zhong very puzzled.
If you don't care about them, you can't kill people with your eyes anyway!
"Mr. Wang is here alone?" A pleasant voice came from behind Ye Chong. Ye Zhong turned around and saw Shang Xin coming with a wine glass, and beside her was a young man in a white dress. The young man's silver-white hair slightly covered one of his eyes, making his eyes a little hazy. There is always a wisp of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and with his smooth face, he is handsome and extraordinary. Ye Zhong clearly felt that the gaze that had always surrounded him almost instantly converged on this young man.
This made Ye Zhong breathe a sigh of relief slightly.
The young man bowed slightly to Ye Chong, polite, elegant and calm.
"Hey, Yezi, this guy is more handsome than you! Damn it! "Angry and corrupt.
"Handsome? What do you mean? Ye Chong heard this word for the first time.
"Well, a man is handsome when he is beautiful!" Yan briefly explained to Ye Chong.
"Pretty? What's the use of being pretty? You can't eat it as a meal! If that's a plus, it's a flashy one! Ye Zhong didn't care.
Ye Chong first bowed slightly to the young man, and then said to Shang Xin: "Miss Shang, is there something wrong with me?" ”
The expressions of the two people in front of them immediately turned into sluggishness!
"Wrong, wrong!" He was really angry at this time: "Yezi, don't use the shepherd's set here!" Now you're just relaxing, you know? There are still people who greet others at the party, and the first sentence asks others what is the matter! Oh, my God! That's an exaggeration, isn't it? ”
"So what should I say?" Ye Zhong asked.
"You can say whatever you want, such as hello Miss Shang, the weather is good today, Miss Shang, you are really charming tonight, what can you say? I can't say anything like that you're looking for me! ”
"Isn't that all nonsense?" Ye Zhong muttered.
"This is meant to be a place for!" Death is precisely summarized.
Rao is Shang Xin is good at adapting, but it is also the first time that he has been asked such a question by someone at the party, and he was suddenly dumbfounded. The scene was quite embarrassing, and Ye Chong was afraid that he would say the wrong thing again, so he simply shut up. In the end, it was the young man who came out to break the deadlock, and a charming smile appeared on the young man's face: "I heard Sister Xin say that Mr. Wang can accurately shoot the enemy with a dagger from more than sixty meters away!" This can make Xiao Zero admire it tightly! ”
Shang Xin hurriedly introduced on the side: "This is Shang Ling, when he heard about Mr. Wang's deeds, he pestered me to bring him to meet Mr. Wang to show his admiration." ”
"Oh, that time it was luck!" Ye Chong said lightly, to be honest, there was really a bit of luck in that time, Ye Chong was not sure that he could have such a satisfactory effect if he repeated that action now.
Shang Lingyou's lips drew an elegant arc, as if he had no intention: "No strength and no luck!" Mr. Wang, this is humble! ”
"Mr. Shang exalted me too much!" Ye Chong's face was still as usual, lukewarm.
Shang Ling shrugged elegantly: "If you can compete with Mr. Wang one day, it will be a happy thing in life!" Immediately, as if realizing his gaffe, Shang Ling laughed at himself: "Just kidding, just kidding, I'm Mr. Wang's opponent!" I wonder if Mr. Wang is interested in driving a light armor? ”
Ye Chong couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart, and said, "General! ”
"I really want to see what kind of scene Mr. Wang is driving the light armor!" Shang Ling's eyes showed a strong look of expectation.
"Oh!" Ye Zhong just responded, how could the other party mention Guangjia for no reason? Does it mean something? Ye Chong, who didn't know the depth of the other party, didn't dare to talk nonsense.
Seeing that Ye Chong didn't seem to have much interest in talking, Shang Ling and Shang Xin said goodbye and moved to other places.
Ye Zhong simply stayed in a corner, slowly drinking the wine in the cup, no matter how he instigated him, he just didn't go to the middle.
"Ah Ling, what do you think of this person?" Shang Xin and Shang Ling walked side by side.
"Very strange and interesting guy! And it's cold! Shang Ling had an interesting look in his eyes.
"yes, what a strange person. It seems that he doesn't know social etiquette at all, but just now the third uncle told me that this Wang Xing occasionally used a double knife ceremony at the dinner table, but it seems that the time is very short! The third uncle suspects that he is very likely to be a nobleman! Shang Xin said: "He looks like a nobleman." But if he really has an aristocratic education, then what is he pretending to be for? Shang Xin's expression was a little puzzled.
"Twin Blades?" Shang Ling was slightly startled.
"Ah Ling, you also know the Double Knife Ceremony?" Shang Xin asked curiously.
"Well, the double knife ceremony is an ancient dining etiquette that is only circulated among the upper nobles of considerable status. Unlike our table manners today, they use two knives. This way of eating is very difficult, because it is difficult to control Ruyi with two table knives, and it is easy to hurt the mouth without special training, so it was later changed to one knife and one fork. Those who are proficient in using the double sword salute are the likely surnames of the descendants of the nobility! Even in some wealthy families and families, it is very rare for people to salute with double swords! Shang Ling explained in detail.
"So, he should be well-educated, so why should he behave so rudely? Disguise? What is his purpose? Shang Xin couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Looks like this is such an interesting person!" The expression on Shang Ling's face became more and more excited, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Ye Zhong drank the wine in his hand without taking a sip, this red wine has a very low alcohol concentration, a slightly sweet taste, and tastes more like some kind of fruit juice. Ye Chong tasted red wine for the first time and thought it tasted quite good. However, the drunken appearance of the madman was too deep in his mind, and he didn't want to become like that in a state that had lost control.
Ye Chong, who stayed alone in the corner, was not lonely, he was chatting with Yan with a ride or not.
Before I knew it, the music changed to dance music, and for a while, people entered the open space in the center of the hall. Often, a man and a woman enter at the same time. As soon as they entered the middle circle, they began to dance to the music.
Ye Chong, who glanced at it twice at the beginning, was still a little fresh, but it didn't take long for this slow-paced dance music to make Ye Chong yawn when he saw it.
Of course, there is also part of the credit for this. Yan has not stopped transforming Ye Chong's thinking since the beginning. The effects of this fatigue bombing are undoubtedly significant.
"Yezi, you have to learn to enjoy life, this world is still relatively peaceful! It's not just about fighting and killing! Yan paused suddenly, as if he felt that saying this was completely inconsistent with Ye Chong's experience, so he abandoned his theory of peace, and continued: "Fighting is undoubtedly very important, but life is also important!" If there is no joie de vivre, how is that different from a killing machine? Yezi, I'm a virtual intellect and know the joy of life, you ......"
Ye Zhong knew that if there was no accident, he would not stop in a short period of time.
"Excuse me, can I ask you to dance?" A timid voice came into Ye Chong's ears.
Ye Zhong raised his head, and when he came into sight, it was a girl wearing a light brown beige dress, the long hair of the shawl was naturally hanging down, her head was lowered, and her hands were crossed in front of her.
"Are you talking to me?" Ye Zhong looked around.
"Hmm!" The girl's face was so red that she seemed to be oozing blood, and she said, "Can I ask you to dance?" ”
"Oh my God! Beauty! It's so pure! Leaf, say yes, say yes! You incomprehensible guy is so lucky, you always meet beautiful women. Oh my God, this is so unreasonable! Today's luck is really good, haha, you can actually meet a beautiful woman in three hours! "I couldn't help myself.
Ye Chong wailed, sure enough, it came again! As soon as he saw a woman, especially his so-called beauty, he would immediately fall into this abnormal state in Ye Chong's opinion.
"Why should I dance with her?" Ye Zhong said lazily, it is a very painful thing to be deprived of the noise, but if you can hit the victim, it is a very pleasant thing.
"Yezi, you guy with no surname! You beast! Such an innocent beauty invites you to dance, and you actually ask why? Is this a question that men should ask? He scolded.
Seeing that Ye Chong suddenly didn't react, the girl couldn't help but raise her head.
Only then did Ye Chong see her face clearly, her skin like snow could be broken, her delicate jade face was still a little innocent, her small nose, her round mouth, and her light brown lace dress were slim, which made her look like a princess in a fairy tale.
The big watery eyes looked at Ye Chong cautiously, his timid eyes showed a look of anticipation, and somehow, Ye Chong suddenly remembered the girl he hadn't seen for several months.
I remember that Nan Nan also had such timid eyes and a cautious expression at that time. These eyes and expressions are really similar! Ye Chong's thoughts were a little fluttering!
"Yezi, promise quickly, promise quickly!" He kept urging there, and the posture seemed as if he was on the field himself.
"But, Death, you know I can't dance!" Ye Zhong said disapprerovingly.
"Hey, hey!" Yan heard a hint of wavering in Ye Chong's words, and continued to encourage hard: "It's okay, Ye Zi, I have a way!" ”
"Are you sure?" Ye Chong was skeptical.
"Hehe, don't worry! No problem! He was vouching, but the laughter was full of pride.
