Maid does not want to marry

The prom was postponed.

The Cheng family did not give any reasons for the postponement of the dance, but none of the guests showed any displeasure.The Cheng family has a big business, and it is really a dragon crossing the river. Given the power of the Cheng family, how could any of these businessmen go looking for trouble?Didn't you see Mr. Li smiling and chatting with his female companion beside him, didn't he look anxious and angry?
Miss Cheng didn't show up, and it was Mr. Li who attracted the most attention.After all, the Cheng family has not yet established a foothold in Guanglin City, but Mr. Li is the leader of the commercial district in Guanglin City, and this is the big boss that everyone present can't afford to offend.

Li Dongyi was surrounded by a circle of people.This group of people surrounded him quite skillfully, they didn't surround him completely, but there was a faint tendency to surround him. If there was a chance, they would be able to walk in front of Li Dongyi first, introduce themselves, and improve their sense of presence.

Li Dongyi was already used to this kind of atmosphere. Although he seldom attended dances and receptions, such situations happened quite often.Especially those daughters who are a little bit more beautiful, if he doesn't have a female companion, there will always be a bold hope that he can have a story with him.If the position is not right, being able to be a small one can bring a lot of benefits to the family.

Those who can occupy this position in this hall are relatively high-status. As for those companies and small families that have just emerged, they are all excluded from this circle, and they stretch their necks to look inside. Woolen cloth.The daughters of these families are knowledgeable, bold and cautious, relying on their identity as women, Mr. Li will not say anything serious, even if they see Xia Yu by his side, these girls will still post them with a smile on their faces, politely The tone of voice said something very offensive.

Xia Yu likes to watch dramas very much. She watched Li Dongyi with a smile on her face the whole time. After she solved the fifth girl who posted in 3 minutes, she turned her head and saw Li Dongyi's eyes glowing with fire.

"Third Master?" Xia Yu looked at Li Dongyi inexplicably, with a pure and innocent light in her eyes, as if she was very sad because Li Dongyi glared at her for doing nothing.

Li Dongyi put a smile on his face, leaned over slightly, put his lips next to Xia Yu's ear, and gritted his teeth: "You have to remember your identity, Miss Xia, my prospective fiancée. Don't play tricks."

There was a crimson Xiayun on Xia Yu's face, this Xiayun had nothing to do with shyness, most of it was anger, and a small part was because the scheme was seen through, so Wei Wei couldn't hang on her face.

"Yu'er didn't play tricks, Yu'er is very happy to see my third master so popular." Xia Yu lowered her head shyly, but her voice was not low.The sound was well controlled, just enough for the girls who came nearby to hear it clearly.I saw that the girls who had just arrived were exchanging opinions with their family members, not knowing who this Xia Yu was.

Xia Yu doesn't take part in dances and other activities, and is not well-known among these courtesans. Even this name, because of its lack of status and Xia Wuchang's intentional downplay, is rarely known in the business circle.Originally, these girls thought that Li Dongyi had brought a little lover over, but after listening to Xia Yu's words, they realized that there must be a problem with their judgment. The relationship between this woman and Li Dongyi is definitely not simple, and they should adjust their own Strategized.

Seeing Xia Yu's words, the gentle smile on Li Dongyi's face immediately became pampered, and he said: "Then take good care of your third master and put it here." As he spoke, Li Dongyi's finger touched Xia Yu's heart position.

When the girls next to her saw this, they all showed envious expressions. It was almost their lifelong wish to be treated so tenderly by Li Dongyi.However, as far as these women know, so far, only Xia Yu has received such gentle and pampering treatment from Li Dongyi, and that is the eldest lady of the Cheng family, Cheng Yanran, who is rumored to have an unclear relationship with Li Dongyi. Never been treated like this.

Cheng Yanran was standing behind the curtain, her pretty face was pale.Her position was just right enough to see Li Dongyi's fingers pointing to the location of Xia Yu's heart.The clothes on Xia Yu were too familiar, and even the necklace on her neck was shown to her by Li Fangmu.It's just that Li Fangmu said that it would be worthwhile for Li Dongyi to give this necklace to Cheng Yanran, so Cheng Yanran waited for this string of chains, but didn't expect to see it here today.

Cheng Yanran's body swayed, and the high-heeled shoes she had just put on seemed to be unable to support her body. She fell to the side, and Tang Zining hurriedly stepped forward to support Cheng Yanran.Cheng Yanran raised her face, her small face was already stained with tears, Tang Zining sighed softly, and gently wiped away the tears for Cheng Yanran.

"Miss, I should have told you earlier." Tang Zining said with some self-reproach.

Cheng Yanran stared blankly at Tang Zining, and wanted to say something, but her lips trembled a few times, and tears fell down her cheeks.Tang Zining felt distressed watching this, and once again wiped away tears for Cheng Yanran.

Seeing this appearance, the people who came by and wanted to urge the master to play immediately silenced their voices and dared not speak, so as not to suffer unreasonable disasters.

"Who is she?" Cheng Yanran managed to utter a complete sentence.

"The investigation is underway, and there will be results in a while. Eldest Miss, Mr. Li did not say that Miss Xia Yu is his fiancée. Eldest Miss still has a chance. The master also hopes that Eldest Miss can get married with Mr. Li Yes. Missy must believe in herself."

Tang Zining's words seemed to give Cheng Yanran a dose of reassurance, making Cheng Yanran's eyes rekindle the light of hope.

"Yes... the third brother is not engaged yet, there is still hope! Yes, Zi Ning, the third brother should still like me more!" Cheng Yanran said, wiping away her tears, and asked the girl next to her with makeup to give her After touching up her makeup, she regained her noble appearance as the young lady of the Cheng family.

"Let's go, let's meet that woman!" Cheng Yanran raised her head with a look of disdain.

Seeing that Cheng Yanran had regained her confidence, Tang Zining smiled.But secretly, Tang Zining still sighed deeply.Li Dongyi is definitely not a good match, and the eldest lady's heart is probably going to be paid by mistake after all.

"Miss, are you ready?" Tang Zining bowed and asked Cheng Yanran for instructions.

Although Cheng Yanran still had a hesitant look on her face, she immediately became extremely firm and nodded fiercely.Seeing Cheng Yanran like this, Tang Zining nodded to the assistant standing beside her, and the assistant who urged the eldest lady to go on stage hurriedly rang the bell to signal that the eldest lady was about to appear.

"Brother Zining, am I beautiful?" Cheng Yanran adjusted her expression and revealed a pure smile. Tang Zining was stunned. Looking at Cheng Yanran's appearance, he nodded slightly and said:

"Missy is naturally unparalleled in beauty."

What she said was very sincere, and Cheng Yanran enjoyed it very much, but when she looked through the curtain and saw the man outside who was leaning over and talking with the female companion she had brought, the expression on her face became miserable.

"Third brother, it would be great if he could say the same thing." Cheng Yanran smiled helplessly, and then, she puffed up her chest, and walked out slowly amidst the applause of the guests outside.

The gown Cheng Yanran chose was a floor-length dress. The pink skirt shone with the dazzling light of gold thread embroidery, and the face that was already quite classically beautiful was set off by the dress.There was no time to recomb her hair, and the high wig still stood on top of her head, but all the ancient hairpins on the wig had been removed, and replaced by a shining diamond crown.Looking at this crown, one can know who the protagonist is today.

Cheng Yanran moved lightly with lotus steps, gradually reaching the top of the steps, slightly above the heads of the guests, her every move was naturally graceful and heart-wrenching.

"Welcome everyone." Cheng Yanran said this with a slight smile.She controlled her gaze not to look at Li Dongyi, let alone at Li Dongyi's female companion, otherwise it would be difficult for her to control her emotions and let herself face everyone in the audience with her gentle face.

Seeing Cheng Yanran's appearance, Xia Yu was also stunned.The combination of classical beauty and modern artwork creates a radiant beauty.Xia Yu felt that if she was a man, she would definitely fall in love with Cheng Yanran without hesitation.

"She's so beautiful." Xia Yu stood on tiptoe and whispered in Li Dongyi's ear.

"You like it?" Li Dongyi turned his head and looked at Xia Yu dotingly.

"Women like it." Xia Yu said in admiration.

Li Dongyi patted Xia Yu's head dotingly, this action happened to be noticed by Cheng Yanran who was speaking above.Cheng Yanran's welcome speech immediately paused, but after all, she was a child educated by a great noble family, Cheng Yanran brought the pause in the speech without leaving a trace, and omitted a lot of speeches later, just announced in a hurry, the dance began.

The rule of the dance party is that the person with the highest status invites a guest to comprehend, and after the song is over, other people can join the dance floor.Cheng Yanran originally wanted to invite Li Dongyi, but when he went to find Li Dongyi just now, Li Dongyi said that he was unwell, so Cheng Yanran wanted to spare Li Dongyi.But now, Li Dongyi actually brought a female companion here, wearing his own dress and necklace that originally belonged to him, Cheng Yanran didn't want to spare Li Dongyi anymore.

She gently twisted up the skirt, walked down the steps, and came straight to Li Dongyi. She didn't even look at Xia Yu, stared at Li Dongyi, and said with a smile: "Third brother, the most distinguished You are the only guest, come and dance with me."

A woman's invitation to dance, a man cannot refuse.Although Li Dongyi frowned, he still couldn't embarrass Cheng Yanran in front of many guests, so he turned his attention to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu felt Li Dongyi's gaze, and his eyes met Li Dongyi's. However, the connotation in Li Dongyi's eyes might be richer. Xia Yu didn't understand what Li Dongyi wanted to express, so she didn't save the situation in time, but turned to Li Dongyi slightly. She smiled and said, "Third Master, have fun."

"Third brother, you haven't introduced me to who this is. We've been together for so many years, and we've never met this young lady before." Seeing that Li Dongyi went to seek Xia Yu's advice, Cheng Yanran almost gritted her silver teeth. broken.She looked at Xia Yu bitterly, but her face still had a gentle and weak look.
