C2 (1/2)
That gaze was too cold, Shen Liangxia's gaze inadvertently swept across her surroundings, and only then did she realize that everyone had stood up, and she was the only one who remained seated.
No wonder. So it was because she was being too negligent. She actually didn't place any importance on the emperor.
Slightly pulling at the corner of her mouth, Shen Liangxia slowly got up, avoiding the gaze as she held her cup and wandered into the crowd.
Xiao Bu Dian walked up the stage and said, ”Thank you all for coming today, I hope you have a good time.”
Liang Yu, ”…” He couldn't bear to look at the welcoming speech with an ice cube on his head.
All of the daughters: ”...” Do you want to be so kind as to say a few more words? We are ready to clap.
It was unknown who had led the applause, but he remembered.
Shen Liangxia looked at the pile of cabbage that was waiting to be nudged by a pig, and then looked at the pig — — Oh, that's not right. A man of this caliber is not a pig, so he is still the Canopy Marshal.
As the Canopy Marshal walked down the stage, the people around him gradually surrounded him. Since their goal was clear, all of the girls here naturally had a few ways to talk to him without losing their status.
The man's expression was cold as he took on a negotiating stance. Just as he was about to speak, he was suddenly embraced by someone.
Caught off guard, the both of them threw themselves into each other's arms, colliding in an intimate posture.
The red liquid splattered on their clothes. Xiao Bu Dian's expression did not change, but the cold Qi around his body suddenly increased. His gaze seemed to be focused on the woman in his embrace.
He didn't say anything, but his attitude was very clear. He disdained this kind of way to strike up a conversation.
However, in the next second, his gaze froze.
Her fair and slender neck was slightly raised, and her pink, petal-like lips were slightly parted. A pair of beautiful eyes were filled with a faint moisture, the corners of her eyes were red and shallow, and her eyebrows were curved like willow leaves. Between his brows, there was a hint of regret that resembled a tiny snake Gu. He took advantage of the opening and entered.
It was far more than just living and fragrant …
With a slight movement of his hands, he held the woman's shoulders.
The man was about to speak, but the soft, jade-like scent in his embrace had already been lifted away.
The Southern Hill's daughter had the same noble elegance as usual. ”You should be careful, but you're still so reckless. It really makes people worry.”
She pointed her pure white finger at the girl's nose and coquettishly said, ”You …”
The woman turned around and apologised politely. ”Mr Xiao, I'm sorry. This child is that reckless. Please forgive him.”
Looking at his hands that had suddenly become empty, the man felt a sense of loss. He said indifferently, ”No.” His gaze landed on the girl who was separated by a few steps. He raised his eyebrows and sneered.
The front of her dress was already wet. Such an occasion could already be said to be disrespectful. Quite a few gazes landed on her.
Xiao Bu Dian did not even know what he was thinking and said: ”Young miss, someone will take you to change your clothes.”
His voice was rich and low, piercing through the eardrums.
The girl gave a faint smile. With a disapproving expression, she replied, ”No need.”
She turned around and looked at the space between Shi Mingyan and the Southern Garden, causing School Beauty Shi to almost explode. She withdrew her gaze, raised her brows, and left with a look of disdain on her face, no longer taking another glance at the people present.
Her skirt fluttered in the wind, her legs were fair and slender, and her slender waist was like a willow.
This was the first time in Xiao Bu Dian's life that he had shown kindness, and he was actually rejected just like that.
Someone slipped out from behind him, and it was precisely Liang Yu, who had already been moved by the evil intentions. Young Master Liang had seized the opportunity. This was the perfect time to be so attentive, and couldn't be let go.
He then strode forward with his long legs, and soon, Liang Yu's silhouette disappeared from the entrance as well.
Xiao Bu Dian rubbed his fingers passionately, his expression was gloomy and unclear.
The eyesore disappeared and the Southern Courtyard seized the opportunity to slightly smile. ”This child has always had such a temper. Please don't take him to heart.”
Even though he had said those words, he avoided mentioning the girl's name. It seemed like he was close, but in reality, it wasn't. If he hadn't seen that scene on the monitor, Xiao Ming would have thought that they were truly good friends and playmates. If he didn't have that girl's look of disdain before he left, he would have thought that it was just a mistake. That girl really slipped into his arms.
But now …
Xiao Bu Dian looked at her passionately, his gaze moved past her and landed on Shi Mingyan.
Although they didn't say anything, the two of them felt a great sense of pressure.
Shi Mingyan quietly took a few steps back and hid herself behind the crowd.
The Southern Courtyard braced themselves, enduring the pressure, and forced a smile.
Xiao Bu Dian raised an eyebrow. His eyes looked like he was playing around and looking disdainful, but it was exactly the same as the cool summer day just now.
All of the young talents attending the meeting were exquisite people. After this incident, they already understood that the Southern Garden and Shi Mingyan had made a raft for the cool summer.
No wonder there was such a scene, when everyone's eyes landed on the two of them, their expressions were mixed for a moment.
Xiao Bu Dian ignored him and turned around to talk to the others.
As the male lead of the banquet, he was well-educated. Even if he just stood there and did not say anything, it would still make the atmosphere warm.
Surrounded by the beauties, the male lead was somewhat absent-minded. His gaze drifted towards the window, and it was unknown whether or not Liang Yu was able to catch up with him.
Liang Yu's legs were fast, and the moment he stepped out of the door, he was caught up.
The man was handsome, with a pair of peach blossoms in his eyes, and a profound skill in conversation. When Shen Liangxia finally regained her senses, she was already wearing the man's suit jacket.
