Flora froze in place, lost in thought.

After a long time, she raised her head again and said, "Lance, I have never loved any man in my life, and I can't have love...... As long as Milo can live...... Let me love anyone. ”

She didn't want to deceive Lance anymore, he was so pitiful that he had loved him for so many years.

Lance burst into tears, and a wry smile appeared on his lips.

"I see, then...... Goodbye, Flora. ”

Flora nodded and closed the door.

Lance was the only one left in the large empty villa, standing alone in the living room, breaking down and crying a few minutes after Flora left.

"Ahhhh Why! Why——!!! ”

Lance fell to his knees with his head in his hands, crying helplessly, "God, why are you doing this to me! ”

A crack appeared in the goddess in her heart, and the light on her body was not dimmed, but it was even farther away from him, so far away that he could not touch it in his life.

He fell to the ground and cried for a long time before he calmed down, and then he went upstairs to pack his luggage, and only halfway through the pack did he realize that he didn't need any luggage at all, and after he disappeared, the family would definitely ask those old nobles to send someone to investigate, and he might be found.

For Flora...... He can't be found.

Lance thought about what kind of life he was going to live after he went into hiding, and he was going to use a fake identity to get through a few years with all the money he had in his hands, and he couldn't be discovered by anyone.

So he can't live in the city, he can only rent a house in a chaotic neighborhood, and he has to go out as little as possible, and he can't contact anyone.

It must have been a very difficult time, and in the days of his incognito, Flora would try to become a great nobleman like the old nobleman, and a person as good as her would definitely be able to do it.

But by that time...... Will she fall in love with him? Will she love him for her giving?

Lance sat down on the bed and began to ponder the question uncontrollably.

He had been thinking about Flora for a long time, and he tried his best to please her, seeing him enter Dongyang Island, and desperately forsowing his freedom to break into here, but just a few minutes ago, he was almost killed by Flora.

Years of giving, in exchange for the result of almost being killed, Flora knew his efforts, but never thought of gratitude, she had always just used him.

She was not even willing to tell a lie, saying that she had loved him all these years.

Lance sat on the edge of the bed, and hours passed.

Eventually, he picked up his phone and dialed his father's number.

"Hello? Father. Well, it's me, bothering you to rest, I'm ...... I want to ask you something. ”

——————

The Ye family's banquet continued, and after the end of the eating session, it soon entered the dancing session.

This ballroom dance session was supposed to be the social time of the nobles, and Su Ming thought that some nobles would come to talk to him, but it turned out that he thought too much, and no one came to him, let alone everyone came to dance with him.

Even Ye Feng only chatted with him very perfunctorily, let him enjoy the party, and then took care of himself to deal with other nobles.

Su Ming felt that if Sylvie didn't come, this meeting would be very successful, but after Sylvie came, everything was in vain.

Without Flora's introduction, he simply could not break into the aristocratic circles.

Su Ming stood on the side for a while, walked to the terrace outside to find Xia Xiaoyu, she walked to the terrace, closed the glass door or something, the music behind her was isolated, and it was as if she had come to another world.

Xia Xiaoyu sat on the stone pillar fence on the edge of the terrace, looked up at the moon in the sky, heard someone come out, turned her head to look, and then looked at the sky again.

"Why don't you stay inside?" Su Ming asked.

"Don't want to be in there." Xia Xiaoyu said lightly, "Why did you come out too, didn't anyone invite you to dance?" ”

"Well, as soon as the minister came, those nobles didn't dare to pay attention to me, and Flora didn't know where to go, I guess I don't want to make any progress this time." Su Ming said casually.

He walked over to the fence and looked down, from where he could see the entrance they had walked before, the bridge over the square fountain, the bushes, and the showy flowers.

The moonlight hit the fountain in the garden, the water shone like a diamond under the silver glow, the violin and orchestral instruments could be vaguely heard behind him, and the wind rustled through the leaves in the distance, Su Ming sensed a hint of coolness in the night breeze, and turned his head to look at Xia Xiaoyu's side face.

"Can you dance with me?" Su Ming said.

Xia Xiaoyu slowly lowered her head and looked at Su Ming in surprise, then she smiled slightly, withdrew her two legs dangling outside the fence, and jumped off the stone pillar.

"Absolutely."

Xia Xiaoyu put her hand on Su Ming's shoulder, Su Ming's fingertips wrapped around her waist, and the two of them posed.

But Su Ming didn't know how to start, because he couldn't find the rhythm of the insertion, the accompaniment in the dance hall had been sounding for a long time, and he and Xia Xiaoyu joined halfway.

Xia Xiaoyu moved first, her toes slid forward, swaying with the rhythm of the music, Su Ming was guided by the other party, and quickly found how to move her steps.

They were dimly lit, and the sounds of violins and other instruments were indistinct through a glass door, faintly coming from far away.

Xia Xiaoyu had a smile on her face, Su Ming looked at each other, their hands parted from time to time, and then closed back together, her eyes lowered in front of him, and after a while, she raised her head and looked into his eyes, her eyes were full of curiosity, as if she was observing a new thing.

"I knew I would have come in a dress." Xia Xiaoyu said softly.

"That's good, too."

"Why do you suddenly want to dance with me? You just asked me if I could dance with you, not if I wanted to dance with you, so ...... This time you invited me. ”

Xia Xiaoyu gently swayed her waist, her neck moved easily, and her expression was leisurely, as if she was born with how to dance.

"Are you thanking me in this way because I helped Flora? Are you trying to please me? Xia Xiaoyu asked.

"No, does it have to mean anything to invite good friends to dance together?" Su Ming said.

Xia Xiaoyu glanced up at Su Ming, then quickly lowered her head and stared at the upper of Su Ming's leather shoes:

"If Flora's brother spends 100 million yuan a year, it will affect a lot of people, and you just want to help her, tell me honestly, do you like her?"

"I don't like her, I just thought I could help her."

"Do you want to help with such trouble? It's not a simple effort, and even with my help, it's a lot of trouble, unless you don't care what the consequences of 100 million yuan evaporation will be. Xia Xiaoyu lowered her head and said softly.

"If Flora's brother can come to Dongyang Island, I may be able to help with his illness." Su Ming said.
