Faced with the assists from the two, Bai Jin was at a loss. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Yang Yu's expression.
At some point, her hands grabbed the hem of her evening gown. She wanted to say something, but her mind was in a mess.
"Bai Jin, you look very beautiful today."
Hearing Yang Yu's gentle words, Bai Jin's tense brows gradually relaxed, joy surged in her heart, and she looked up at Yang Yu.
But she saw that Yang Yu's eyes were not on her, but looking somewhere else.
Is it just perfunctory
Bai Jin, who had originally felt somewhat relieved, suddenly felt extremely confused.
Raising his hand to pinch his chin, Yang Yu covered his slightly red cheeks, but it didn't stop his ears from burning.
Originally, he was still wondering if the person next to Ladis was Bai Jin.
As it turns out, it is true.
The aura Bai Jin exudes now is completely different from before, she is too cute, like a hamster.
Yang Yu was afraid that if he kept staring at Bai Jin, the succubus who was somewhere would discover his plan, so he looked away.
But this averting of gaze seemed to make Bai Jin feel uneasy.
Yang Yu wanted to pat Bai Jin on the head and tell her not to worry.
But the situation does not allow it.
In order to carry out the plan normally, Yang Yu quickly found an excuse:
"The banquet is about to begin, it's almost time to take your seats.
Bai Jin, I'm sorry.
I have some social engagements and cannot sit with you.
Have some fun today.
Be careful. I just saw some playboys. Don't let them run you away.
We will have a long time together in the future, please forgive me this time."
Having said that, Yang Yu turned and left.
Looking at Yang Yu's back, Bai Jin felt mixed emotions. She wanted to keep Yang Yu and let him look at herself more now.
But Bai Jin's intuition told her that Yang Yu did have something to do, and maybe he was planning something, so she must not act on her own.
So, in the end, Bai Jin chose to stay where she was and watch Yang Yu go away.
No matter how Latis urged her not to miss the opportunity, Bai Jin still chose to stay where she was.
Seeing Yang Yu calling back Iyas and apologizing to Miss Jin, Bai Jin's worry did not disappear. She said to Ladis:
"He looks busy, so let's not disturb him. Latisse, I don't have any friends here, can you let me sit with you?"
Latisse was indignant, “He said he was not interested in the official position, but he abandoned his important female companion.
Men who are like wood are the most difficult to deal with.
There is really no other way. I will try to invite him again after dinner.
We still have to break through the window paper and speak frankly.
Bring him a direct shock and make him unable to forget you.
Don't forget what I taught you. You will succeed. "
Bai Jin nodded.
Not long after, the banquet began under the chairmanship of the prince.
Emperor Luo Hui and a series of important figures came to the stage to give speeches, saying that the current peace was hard-won and how they were manipulated by the succubus and made mistakes.
Most of the talk was just polite talk. Bai Jin listened absentmindedly, looking at the delicious food on the table without much appetite.
Yang Yu also went up to give a speech and performed extremely well.
Although Bai Jin didn't remember much about what she had said to the people before, she remembered what Yang Yu said very clearly.
Countless memories flashed before Bai Jin's eyes. Two years ago, she could not have imagined that she could drink at the same table with such important figures and experience the life of the aristocrats.
At first, Bai Jin thought Yang Yu was just a novice adventurer and thought she could bring him into the industry.
As a result, Yang Yu showed extraordinary strength and saved her step by step.
Moreover, Yang Yu was not afraid of fear and took that organization as her enemy to fulfill her dream.
From the past, Yang Yu rarely told me about his plans, which made me worry countless times.
Is this also a pointless worry on my part
Bai Jin couldn't be sure.
After the speeches, various entertainment groups took to the stage to perform to liven up the atmosphere.
After eating and drinking, people left their seats, took a walk to digest the food and prepare for the next dance.
The sky is dotted with stars.
After dinner, Latis signaled Bai Jin to seize the opportunity.
After seeing Yang Yu socializing, Bai Jin shook her head.
She has decided to wait until the banquet is over before asking Yang Yu for clarification.
She chose to believe Yang Yu.
On the other side, Jin finally launched an offensive.
It would take some time to prepare for the ball, so most of the princes and nobles who had just dined went to the spacious courtyard to stroll and chat in order to fully enjoy the ball.
There were only a few people left in the dining hall.
Pretending to be shy, after a noble had finished greeting, she intervened in the conversation between Yang Yu and the nobles:
"That. His Highness Yang Yu
I have something that I need your help with, but it's hard to tell you.
Don't get me wrong, it's not weird.
Can we talk about…
Just the two of us, alone.”
Yang Yu hesitated for a while, glanced at the empty hall, and found that there were not many people. He pretended to be unsuspecting and responded "yes", then followed Jin to the corridor.
As soon as he reached the corner of the corridor, Jin panicked and threw himself into Yang Yu's arms, tears welling up in his eyes, "Your Highness Yang Yu, what should I do
Actually, I'm not very good at dancing.
There are so many people coming this time, I feel uneasy and I am sure I will mess it up.
Could you practice with me before the dance starts
Please, I really can't find anyone to help me except His Highness Yang Yu."
Yang Yu pretended to be stunned, then he declined awkwardly:
"I was born a commoner and I'm not good at dancing"
"It doesn't matter. When I was learning to dance, I always wanted to follow the man's movements...
On the contrary, I remember the man's actions more familiarly.
When you practice with me, I can correct your mistakes, and we can both benefit from the practice, so why not?" Jin pleaded again.
After thinking for a while, Yang Yu finally agreed reluctantly: "Since Miss Jin said so, I am willing to practice with you."
Jin smiled with relief, “Thank you so much.
It would be a bit embarrassing to be seen practicing in the corridor.
I have been to this mansion before and know a few quiet spots where you can get by without being disturbed.
I really don't want others to see me accidentally making a fool of myself.
so…
May I?"
“Well, since Miss Jin said so, there is nothing we can do.
My friend seems to be jealous of you, so it’s better to avoid him.”
Yang Yu nodded in agreement. He followed Jin all the way, through corridors, and came to an open-air balcony with a nice view.
The balcony was full of shining stars. The place where people were walking was far away from the balcony. The lights coming from afar and the lights from the corridor could illuminate the entire balcony. Such a place was indeed an excellent place to practice dancing.
Yang Yu half-bends like a gentleman, raises his hand, and invites Jin to dance:
"Beautiful Miss Jin, would you please dance with me?"
