Chapter 122: Changing Dance Partners
After the dinner, melodious music slowly began to flow through the magnificent hall. Andrew, smiling, gracefully extended his long, strong hands, gently took Zhou Yutong's soft, delicate hand, and together they walked into the center of the spacious, bright dance floor.
At this moment, Zhou Yutong, dressed in a gorgeous evening gown, looked like a blooming flower. However, only she knew that the wounds on the inside of her legs, rubbed by the horse's back, were piercing with pain, as if thousands of ants were gnawing at her.
But even though the pain was unbearable, she still clenched her teeth tightly, trying not to let the pain show on her face. Instead, she always kept that charming smile on her face, as if everything was so beautiful and perfect.
Andrew danced gracefully with Zhou Yutong, but he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. This woman is really cruel! She is clearly injured, but she can endure the pain and pretend that nothing happened. She really has a heart of a snake and a scorpion!
Thinking of this, Andrew's eyes flashed with cunning, and he decided to teach her a lesson. So, he suddenly changed his dance steps and deliberately led Zhou Yutong in a tap dance with a lively rhythm and fierce steps.
As her dance pace quickened, Zhou Yutong felt the pain in her wound grow more intense, almost unbearable. Beads of sweat dripped from her forehead, soaking her carefully combed hair. Even her back was drenched with sweat. Despite this, she gritted her teeth and persevered, not daring to show it.
After the intense dance, Zhou Yutong felt a little tired. At this moment, she only wanted to find a quiet and comfortable place to have a good rest as soon as possible.
However, things went against her wishes. Just as she was about to leave the dance floor, Andrew, with a smile on his face, gracefully led her to dance an elegant ballroom dance. Although Zhou Yutong was very reluctant, she could only keep smiling!
At the same time, other handsome men and beautiful women were attracted by this scene and walked into the dance floor as lightly as butterflies. For a moment, the whole dance floor was filled with laughter and cheerful melodies.
Elsewhere, Alice took Qin Nuo's arm and walked into the lively dance floor together. Following the rhythm of the music, they began to dance.
Soon, however, Alice noticed that Qin Nuo's steps were somewhat stiff and uncoordinated. She couldn't help but look up at Qin Nuo beside her and said softly, "Mr. Qin, don't be so nervous. Please relax a little! Could it be that... this is your first time dancing with a girl?"
Hearing Alice's words, Qin Nuo's face still maintained that cold and distant expression. He replied calmly: "I'm sorry, Miss Alice, my dancing skills are indeed not superb enough, which may affect your interest in dancing. If you feel it is not suitable, you may wish to find another dance partner."
Faced with Qin Nuo's direct words, Alice wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled gently, as charming as a flower blooming in spring. She looked at Qin Nuo with an encouraging look and said gently, "Don't worry, Mr. Qin! I'm actually a very good dancer. I'll lead you. As long as you follow my steps closely, you won't make any mistakes!" As she spoke, Alice gently pulled Qin Nuo's hand, indicating that he should follow her guidance without worry.
When the dance music was halfway through, Andrew, like a nimble butterfly, led Zhou Yutong to dance lightly, gradually approaching the position where Qin Nuo and Alice were. Suddenly, Andrew stopped and signaled to Qin Nuo with his eyes, hoping to exchange partners with him.
Alice raised her lips slightly, revealing a charming smile. She danced briskly like an elf, gracefully exchanging places with Zhou Yutong.
However, Zhou Yutong felt as if she had stepped on a pile of stinky dog shit. She was in a terrible mood because she had never expected that Andrew would coincidentally replace her with Qin Nuo.
Zhou Yutong's expression darkened instantly, her gaze fixed on the receding figures of Andrew and Alice. Only after they were out of sight did she turn around and coldly address Qin Nuo, "Hmph, you're still haunting me! I'm telling you, you and I have nothing to do with each other anymore! So, listen up! Don't talk nonsense in front of Andrew! Otherwise, don't blame our Zhou family for turning our backs on you and showing no mercy!" Then, Zhou Yutong glared fiercely at Qin Nuo, as if to warn him not to act rashly again.
Qin Nuo's face was stern, and his gaze was as cold as a star as he stared at Zhou Yutong. His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "What are you talking about? Are you asking me to tell you about the despicable method of secretly giving me an aphrodisiac? Or to mention the cruel and inhumane thing you did, which made someone desperate and ultimately chose to commit suicide by burning charcoal? Zhou Yutong, Zhou Yutong, are you afraid that others will know about all the things you have done?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yutong's face flushed crimson instantly. She widened her eyes and roared in anger, "You actually investigated me behind my back? You are such a shameless and despicable person!"
Qin Nuo snorted in disdain, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a mocking smile: "Just based on your shady little deeds, do you really need me to investigate? Humph, you really overestimate yourself!"
Zhou Yutong was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her fingers clenched into fists, and her originally delicate and beautiful face became a little distorted and hideous because of extreme anger.
However, at this moment, Qin Nuo suddenly sneered and reminded: "Look, Andrew is looking over here! Look at you now, you are so angry that you are deformed and ugly, it's simply unbearable to look at!"
Zhou Yutong was startled when she heard this, and quickly suppressed the anger on her face, quickly putting on a gentle and sweet smile like a Sichuan opera face-changing. Seeing this scene, Qin Nuo couldn't help but sneer again with disdain: "Oh, your acting skills are really superb, you really are a natural actor!"
Not far away, Alice nestled on Andrew's shoulder like a little bird. She lowered her voice and whispered to him, "Brother, look at those two people over there. I think they seem to know each other, and it looks like they have a grudge against each other!"
Andrew smiled slightly, gently pinched Alice's nose, and replied lovingly, "Haha, my dear sister, your vision is still so sharp! These two people do know each other. I heard that they were originally planning a business marriage. I just don't know what happened that led to such a tense situation now."
