Chapter 236 - The Engagement 07

As soon as the dance started Su started to look for Si ying eagerly and finally her eyes caught him.

But all her excitement went into the gutter when she saw Kong Xingtian holding his arms and going toward the dance floor. 

She felt a pung of pain in her heart.

But the next second, suddenly a whirlwind of raze consumed her pain.

She glared back at Kai and ordered, "Kai, dance with me."

On the other hand, Kai's eyes were looking for someone too. He was busy when Su suddenly asked him for a dance.

So he leisurely waved his hands and instantly denied, "No! Look for someone else."

That's when his eyes caught Sophie who was also attending the dance with a smile on her face.

'What were you even thinking, Kai. You don't have any partner. You are pathetic!' he cursed himself.

After some self talking he looked at his friend and found her glaring at him

"Are you going or no?" She demanded an answer.

"Okay. I am going." Kai didn't want to upset his friend anymore.

--------

"It's been so long that we danced together, right brother Si ying?" Kong Xingtian said excitedly.

"Well... Umm." Si ying replied indifferently.

He didn't quite heard what Xingtian was saying. Because his eyes were fixed on the other pair dancing beside them, Kai and Su.

While his eyes were fixed at Su, Su didn't even bother to look at him. She kept talking with Kai non-stop and our Kai innocently nodding on her every word.

Su was continuously blabbering in his ears. But Kai didn't care because his mind was on the pair at the other side of them.

He didn't dare to look at them but he definitely was trying to hear what they were talking.

So, Su's nonstop blabbering felt like noise of flies to him.

"Xingtian I have some...." Si ying couldn't bear Su's ignorance. So, he tried to make an excuse to leave the floor. But Xingtian didn't let him go easily.

"Brother Si ying, look how great my brother and sister Yuerui are looking. I hope God will make them happy couple together." She tried to divert his mind.

Xingtian doesn't know what type of madness has flared in her mind, but she didn't have any intension of letting it go. It made her numb. As a result, she couldn't see the unwillingness in Si ying's eyes.

No! She didn't want to see.

When Si ying again made an effortless reply to her, her heart sank.

'You are so much concerned about her that you can't even see the person in front of you.' she felt an undesirable rage inside her which subconsciously made her grip on his shoulder even more firm.

When Si ying suddenly felt a strength on his grip and saw her dazed out his brows frowned.

"Xingtian?" He asked.

Kong Xingtian came out of her daze and made a bright smile, " Yes! Brother Si ying?"

"You don't look so well. Are you okay?" He asked.

'See! He still cares for me.' she felt warmth in her heart. Her eyes softened.

"May be I am a little tired because of all the work today." She replied.

"Then I think we should leave the dance now. You should rest." He said with concern.

"No!" But his suggestion made Xingtian startled. She immediately stood still on her spot made her grip on him even more firm.

She doesn't wanna leave him.

But Si ying was confused with her action.

"No? But why?" He asked confusedly.

"Ah... Well..." Kong Xingtian looked else where and started to wrack her head to make an excuse.

Her brain didn't let her down and she came up with an excuse very fast.

"It's not that bad that I have to leave the floor. Besides it will not look good too." After saying her words Kong Xingtian locked her hands behind his neck and continued, "And didn't you promise me that you will take care of me tonight? So... I will be counting on you, brother Si ying!" Her face beamed with a bright smile.

Si ying was out of words. His partner for the night seems to be mad at him and Kong Xingtian was acting weird around him. In the end, he couldn't help but make an awkward smile.

He couldn't bear to look on Kong Xingtian's eyes. So he diverted his gaze and coincidentally found something interesting.

He looked at Xingtian again and gestured her to look at the other side of them.

She looked at that direction and was amazed as well.

----

It was Zhang Eliza and Han Yefang dancing together.

Well to be precise Han Yefang was barely even dancing, it was Zhang Eliza who dragged him into the dance floor.

They looked so odd together.

"You haven't responded to my words yet, Mr. Han." Zhang Eliza asked him with her eyes cunningly looking at him.

"Can you tell me why did you drag me here?" He asked her back in cold eyes.

"To make you have a good look of her." She whispered her words to him with a sly smile.

Han Yefang glanced a look at Mai Yuerui.

She was smiling brightly at Kong Xianwang and was dancing gracefully.

Her smiling at another man made his heart bleed.

He composed his posture and turned a cold eye towards Zhang Eliza.

"I thought I made myself clear to you before." He said coldly.

But his straight forward answer seems to be not getting into Eliza's head.

Her slender fingers brushed through his neck as she said in alluring voice," Mr, Han why are you being coy? You can't hide your desperate eyes from me. You and I are both same. You should also snatch what you want."

"What do you mean?" Han Yefang slowly tilted his head and asked with a frown.

"Only a night is enough to make a woman change her mind."

Han Yefang's eyes became dark as soon as he heard her words. He tightly grabbed her hand that was continuously brushing through his neck and said in bone chilling voice,

"Ms. Zhang you words and actions doesn't seem to match. You are telling me about other woman but your hands are offering you to me. So why not just tell me that you want me? Do you want me to make you feel better so that you can forget Mr. Kong?"

His words made Zhang Eliza startled. She immediately wanted to retreat her hand but Han Yefang didn't let her. He made her hand forcefully sit on his shoulder and made his grip on her waist more tight.

"So, what do you think?" He said as he raised the corner of his lips to make a smirk.

"You must be kidding right?" She replied hesitantly.

"Do I look like I am kidding? You said you have seen my eyes being desperate for her. May be yes. May be my eyes are indeed desperate. But not for her. May be it were desperate for you." His expression suddenly took a dangerous look.

Zhang Eliza started to regret her action.

But she still tried to be confident and said in firm voice, "You can try hard to hide it from me but I know you have feelings for her."

"Forget about another man's woman. Tell me about you." The smirk in his mouth seemed so ugly even towards Zhang Eliza that she wanted to leave this man as soon as possible.

"You are a sc*mbag!" She couldn't help retort.

"If you are unwilling..." He replied then after a pause his eyes grew darker and he said in domineering voice, "Then f*ck off."

And he immediately twisty her waist and threw her to the other side. Zhang Eliza as a result made a twirl and fell towards the person on that side.

-------

Han Yefang's sudden movement was so in tuned in with the rhythm of the music that the person thought it was a dance to change the partners with the music and he too then changed his partner to grab Zhang Eliza next.

So everybody started to change their partners.

With the course of flow the it was time for Chang Yi to change partner.

Sophie saw it before coming to them that the partners were suddenly changing.

"Cheng Yi, they are changing their partners." She asked with concern.

"What! Really?" His face beamed with joy.

But as soon as she looked back at him he changed his expression.

"Oh really... What can we do then?" He faked a pitiful face.

His eyes were already glued to the girl beside them as soon as they came to the dance floor.

So the moment it was time for them to change he immediately twirled her to the other side.

Deep inside Sophie didn't wanted him to change but that heartless man didn't think about her emotion and pushed her towards Kai.

----

When Kai saw the changing of partners he gave a meaningful smile to Su and quoted, "Now it's your time, my friend." And he forcefully twisted her to make her fall directly into Si ying's arms.

After seeing her fell on her man's arms he gave her a mischievous wink but the next second he became startled when he saw Sophie next to him.

---------

The sudden change in partner made Xingtian anxious. She didn't want to leave Si ying and subconsciously made her grip firm.

But it was of no use. As soon as Si ying saw Su being pushed towards him he didn't think twice and pushed away Xingtian to catch his love.

------

After ruthlessly pushing away Zhang Eliza, Han Yefang dusted his coat as if he was wiping away dirt from his clothes.

He fixed his coat and was about to leave.

But he didn't think that his one action will have an effect on the situation and will make Kong Xingtian fall directly onto his embress.

------

His one action made made every puzzle fell into their places but ironically he also was struck with Kong Xingtian.
