I, the female supporting role, play three male supporting roles at the same time

The lights are bright and the night is long.

Zhao Ruoming had a welded smile on his face. He took Jiang Huiyi's arm and walked slowly into the banquet hall.

Duan Jizhi and Duan Chengfang followed their father like two generals. Duan Jizhi's eyes were occasionally glancing at his stepmother, while Duan Chengfang looked absent-minded, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Ball, dance, masquerade.

Naturally, everyone present wore a mask without exception.

The guests wore masks of various styles, some elegant, some exquisite, all of which had one thing in common: luxury. The patterns and gems on the masks sparkled under the light. From a distance, it looked like countless stars had fallen into the banquet hall.

The well-organized waiters, wearing uniform black masks on their faces, shuttled among the crowd in gorgeous clothes, looking like a group of bats passing through a flock of birds.

The women's silk skirts rippled like water, and the crystal vessels reflected their powdered skin, reflecting some golden or white halos.

Melodious music echoed in the banquet hall, but because the hall was too large, the music circled around a few times and became weak.

Jiang Huiyi looked at the scene in front of her with nostalgia, and approached Zhao Ruoming, whispering, "I didn't expect that the dance party jointly organized by the Chai, Mi, You, and Yan families would be so grand. Old Duan, what do you think?"

Zhao Ruoming pressed his lips and said, "It feels like entering Gotham."

Jiang Huiyi didn't understand what this meant, but 203 did.

203 consoled him, "Host, be patient. This night will pass quickly."

Zhao Ruoming walked towards the center of the banquet hall while looking around: "I'm not saying that the masquerade cannot be held... It's just that Chai Mi Youyan and those old yams are at least fifty years old on average, and they look like tree stumps with five branches. Why are they holding this thing?"

203 scanned the banquet hall: "Host, there are still a few young talents mixed in."

Zhao Ruoming suddenly laughed and said, "System, have you seen the old patriarch of the Li family? One of his beards is pressed down by the mask. Now the beards on both sides of his lips are pointing up to the sky and down to the ground!"

Of course 203 scanned it: "Hahaha."

One person and one woman were teasing the bosses when they suddenly heard a gloomy and hoarse voice coming from behind.

"Duan Hongji."

Zhao Ruoming turned around and smiled: "Mr. Di? Why are you here? Are you here to see Xiao Chai?"

The pair of eyes under Di Hantian's mask stared at Zhao Ruoming: "I came to see you."

In just one month, Di Hantian had become emaciated, with only a tall skeleton left. But his eyes were so bright that they looked like they could burn people. The black mask on his face was dimmed.

Jiang Huiyi, who was beside Zhao Ruoming, frowned, feeling that something was wrong with Di Hantian.

Zhao Ruoming accepted it well: "I see, Mr. Di looks a lot more haggard, is it because he is lovesick for Duan?"

Jiang Huiyi felt more and more that something was wrong. At this moment, a voice suddenly came over: "Emperor! So you are here!"

Jiang Huiyi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall young man striding towards her.

The young man didn't even glance at the people present, and looked at Di Hantian with concern: "I just saw your sister, she said you were here too! I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Di Hantian finally tore off the eyes that were stuck on Zhao Ruoming, looked at the young man, pursed his lips and said, "Theodore."

The young man named Theodore had broad shoulders and long legs. He was almost the same height as Duan Hongji. His flaxen, semi-long hair sparkled under the light. He wore a mask of a rather complicated pattern and looked like a prince in a medieval oil painting.

203 reminded: "Host, this is the person who is going to slap Duan Hongji in the face tonight."

"Yo."

Zhao Ruoming said playfully, "He also knows Di Hantian? If this slaps me in the face, won't Di Hantian be so happy?"

While talking, 203 has already retrieved Theodore's information:

"Theodore von Mansfield. The son of the French PAR MANSFIELD Group. He is a playboy by nature."

"I can see that." Zhao Ruoming said with a smile, "Maybe he doesn't mind eating meat or vegetables."

After Theodore finished showing concern for Di Hantian, he seemed to have just noticed that there were two people in front of Di Hantian, and said with a smile: "Di, why don't you introduce them to me?"

Di Hantian curled his lips and said, "This is Mr. Duan Hongji whom I told you about."

"Oh, Mr. Duan." Theodore's Chinese is very good, with almost no accent. "Nice to meet you."

Theodore extended a hand to Zhao Ruoming.

Zhao Ruoming raised his eyebrows and extended a hand.

At the moment when her fingertips were about to touch Theodore's fingers, Theodore raised his hand, picked up Jiang Huiyi's hand, and gently kissed it.

"Miss, may I have the honor of knowing your name?"

Jiang Huiyi was stunned. She was holding Duan Hongji's arm. Even if Theodore couldn't tell that she was Duan Hongji's wife, he should know that she was Duan Hongji's female companion. This behavior was too rude!

Zhao Ruoming was not embarrassed at all. He put his hand on Shang Di Hantian's shoulder and gently flicked off the non-existent dust on it.

After doing all this, Zhao Ruoming nodded slightly to Theodore: "This is my wife."

Theodore's smile remained unchanged: "That's a pity."

Zhao Ruoming looked directly into Theodore's eyes - those eyes were amber and looked like a bowl of fine wine. Through the mask, it was difficult to see Theodore's facial features, but just looking at the lower half of his face, he must be a very handsome young man.

Zhao Ruoming laughed and said, "Mr. Di, won't you introduce me to him?"

Di Hantian looked between the two men for a moment, and said slowly: "Theodore. He is my schoolmate at West Free University and also my brother."

Brother, you smell so good.

Zhao Ruoming suppressed his laughter and said to Theodore with a curious look, "It sounds like Mr. Di has talked to you about me?"

"Of course." Theodore took out a silk handkerchief slowly and wiped his fingers. "The Emperor admires Mr. Duan very much."

"Oh?" Zhao Ruoming raised his eyebrows. "What did Mr. Di say about me?"

"He said--" Theodore looked at Zhao Ruoming and kept it a little suspenseful.

"——He said, Mr. Duan is a man like a venomous snake."

When Jiang Huiyi heard this, her face changed: "Sir, you are too..."

"Venomous snake?" Zhao Ruoming was stunned, then he chuckled twice, "Mr. Di is always very accurate in judging people."

Theodore looked at the man in front of him and was a little surprised. According to Di Hantian, the man in front of him should be a person with a deep mind and no expression of emotions. Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to be so free and unrestrained.

Zhao Ruoming laughed enough before he said, "Has Mr. Di ever told you that Mr. Theodore is a rooster-like man?"

"Why a rooster?" Theodore's amber eyes flashed with a hint of confusion, "Because I'm French?"

"That's not the case. I just heard someone say," Zhao Ruoming smiled, "a rooster will not die without a head. It only needs to keep a part of the brain stem to survive."

After all, Theodore was not a native Chinese speaker, so he was unable to comprehend what was said for a moment, but Di Hantian understood it.

Di Hantian pulled Theodore and said coldly, "Let's go, Theodore. When it comes to talking, you can't match the eloquent Mr. Duan Hongji."

Zhao Ruoming suddenly turned his gaze to Di Hantian's hand: "Hey, Mr. Di is not wearing the symbol of the Di family today?"

Di Hantian's face froze and his cheeks moved slightly, as if he was gritting his teeth.

"What symbol?" Theodore looked at Di Hantian's hand, "Di! Your..."

"Don't ask anymore, let's go." A sinister look flashed across Di Hantian's face.
