Zhong Luozheng's eyes shifted to Xia Xiaomin, who was still in a daze. He frowned. What happened to her? Why was she so absent-minded?

He spread his long legs and walked over to sit beside her. "What's the matter?"

Xia Xiaomin's gaze swept over Qin Xue, feeling like she was an ugly duckling in front of her. She couldn't help but lower her head and sit on the sofa, unwilling to speak. Fortunately, Qin Xue had left, and Xia Xiaomin felt that the stone in her heart had moved a little. At least she could breathe easier now.

Zhong Luozhuang followed Xia Xiaomin's gaze. He thought that she was reluctant to part with Chen Hao, but his anger suddenly flared up. He grabbed her chin and twisted her head towards him.

"Stay away from that Chen Hao from now on!" Master Zhong was overbearing.

Xia Xiaomin was stunned for a second. She felt that she should have been angry, but there was a sweet warmth in her heart, like the sweet fragrance of a freshly brewed cappuccino.

Xia Xiaomin blinked, as if she had understood something. She smiled and asked, "Are you jealous?"

He had thought that Zhong Luozheng would deny it, even calling her narcissistic. Unexpectedly, he actually didn't say anything. He just frowned and stared straight at her.

"Could it be true? Zhong Luochen, don't tell me you like me? " His grip tightened on Xia Xiaomin's jaw. She couldn't run away, and it seemed like she didn't want to run away either.

Just like that, he fell into Zhong Luozheng's black eyes. He stared fixedly, his eyes filled with deep emotion.

Xia Xiaomin's heart throbbed again.

Did the oxygen in the air get sucked out?

Xia Xiaomin felt that if they looked at each other now, she would definitely die from lack of oxygen!

Did this man have to look at her with such deep feelings that she almost couldn't breathe?!

Suddenly, the lights in the banquet hall dimmed.

A cheerful dance sounded out.

Xia Xiaomin's tense nerves gradually relaxed as her fingers loosened their grip on her chin.

"MayI?" Zhong Luozhan suddenly stood up and stretched out his hand towards Xia Xiaomin.

Xia Xiaomin was stunned for a moment. She took Zhong Luozheng's finger and held it out to her. It was slender and clean, and she had an impulse to take it. Tonight, she would be the most dazzling.

However …

"Sorry, I... Can't dance. "

Yes, such a sad reality, such an unattainable dream.

Xia Xiaomin grew up in an orphanage. Dancing was not something she could do. If it was a Taekwondo competition, she would have been confident!

Zhong Luozhan ignored her refusal and pulled her up, putting his arms around her waist and whispering next to her ear, "Step on my shoes, I'll take you to dance."

Two small white feet hesitated where to place it.

Xia Xiaomin snapped out of her daze and was dragged to the middle of the dance floor with Zhong Luozheng. At this moment, her feet were stepping on Zhong Luozheng's shoes.

In the eyes of the outsiders, Xia Xiaomin was too busy and beautiful to care about. She ignored the stares of the women who tried to kill her.

However, that was not the case. The moment Master Zhong had taken on Xia Xiaomin's weight, he knew that he had wrongly underestimated her weight and the endurance of his feet.

Oh no, it really hurt a lot!

Nevertheless, he endured the pain of his feet turning into swollen bread and continued to lead his partner to dance with an expressionless face. Of course, the movements were graceful and flawless.

The dazzling whirling motion made Xia Xiaomin a little dizzy. She felt dizzy, and her center of gravity was about to collapse. Zhong Luozheng tightened his grip, and held her tightly in his embrace.

Xia Xiaomin raised her eyes and looked at him gratefully.

Zhong Luozhan's lips curved up in an evil smile. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Stupid woman!"

Because of his words, Xia Xiaomin stepped heavily on Zhong Luozheng, then pressed her hand on his waist.

Zhong Luochen dodged in pain, the two of them looked like they were about to collide into the people beside them, but fortunately Zhong Luochen managed to stabilize his body, turning gracefully, and the two of them continued to move along with the dance music.

"Xia Xiaomin, you did it on purpose!" Zhong Luozheng's angry voice came from the top of Xia Xiaomin's head.

Did this woman know how much pain his feet were in right now?!

Xia Xiaomin raised her head and smiled sweetly at him. "It'll be more fun if you fall down."

"Is that so?" Zhong Luozheng frowned in displeasure. Zhong Luozheng's voice seemed chilly under the dim light, but when Xia Xiaomin raised her head, she saw a faint smile on his handsome face as if he was angry.

He wasn't angry at all.

Xia Xiaomin followed Zhong Luozheng and giggled.

On a nearby seat, the beautifully dressed Lin Xiyao saw the person in Zhong Luozheng's arms.

Of course Lin Xiyao recognized the dress that Zhong Luozheng was holding. It was none other than Xia Xiaomin.

They were laughing so happily, it was as though they were the only two people left in the hall.

Yet, that pair of hoof had actually landed on her male god's shoes. It was simply too flippant!

Lin Xiyao clenched her fists tightly. She would never have thought that Zhong Luozheng would actually bring Xia Xiaomin here.

What was she? She was just a babysitter, how could she come to such an occasion? Dancing with Zhong Luozhuang?

Xia Xiaomin, you are so shameless, aren't you? Then let me tell you, where your real position is!

A trace of jealousy and scheming flashed across Lin Xiyao's eyes as she took out her phone and dialed a number.

A moment later, outside the banquet hall, a man with a long, pointed chin, a camera around his neck, and glasses on his nose. He was the reporter for "Entertainment Starry Night", Sun Qiang.

If anyone was looking closely, they would know that there was a camera hidden inside the glasses. Sun Qiang's eyes were fixed on the main door of the banquet hall. He was waiting for the door to open and Zhong Luozhuang to come out.

This time, Sun Qiang wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity!

Thinking about the headlines tomorrow, a vulgar smile appeared on Sun Qiang's face.

The banquet continued on. After a few more dances, Xia Xiaomin was tired even though she was stepping on the male god's feet. Zhong Luozhan sat on the sofa and patted Xia Xiaomin's head, trying his best to resist the swelling of her legs.

Seeing that she was looking at him suspiciously, Zhong Luozhan said in a low voice, "If you're tired, then sleep for a while. When it's over, I'll call you."

Xia Xiaomin was not sure if it was because she was too sleepy, or because of Zhong Luozheng's comforting aura, but after a few blinks, she fell asleep on the sofa. Not long after, his body tilted towards Zhong Luozhan's direction, directly placing him on Zhong Luozheng's shoulder.

Zhong Luozheng's eyebrows twitched, then he unconsciously sat up, making Xia Xiaomin more comfortable.

Huo Tao, who was standing not far away, couldn't help but twitch his mouth when his sight made contact.

Huo Tao had never seen Zhong Luozheng treat women so gently before. Tsk tsk, it looks like this kid really fell for it.

Zhong Luochen was not interested in the banquet, so he lowered his eyes to play with Xia Xiaomin's hair. His expression was gentle, as if he didn't even notice it himself.

Zhong Luozhuang originally wanted to wake Xia Xiaomin up after the banquet, but she was sound asleep. He couldn't bear to wake her up, so he carried her and prepared to leave.

[This girl actually sleeps like a dead pig every time she sleeps!]

Aren't you afraid of being dragged away by bad people?

Zhong Luozhan couldn't help but shake his head.

"Luo Zhan, why don't you stay for the night?" With a smile on his face, Huo Tao signaled Xia Xiaomin to stop.

Zhong Luozhan shook his head, "There's no need. Happy birthday, let's go. "

Lin XIyao was still sitting in the corner. Seeing how Zhong Luozhan treated Xia Xiaomin so well, she was extremely jealous in her heart, but because there were too many people, she couldn't show it.

Chen Hao and Qin Xue naturally saw the abnormal air pressure.

Chen Hao only felt that this scene was so dazzling. That was the little woman he had protected since childhood. Even if she was violated by Boss Zhang, his heart would still ache for her, let alone being dominated by his nemesis, Zhong Luozheng!

The gentle light in Zhong Luozhan's eyes fell on Qin Xue's as she tilted her head, revealing a puzzled expression.

It was said that Zhong Luozhang was one of the few rich kids who didn't flirt with women, and the only girlfriend that appeared beside him was Lin Xishan. Why was it that while Lin Xiyao was sitting a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from him, he was actually hugging that unknown girl, and why was she so gentle?

Zhong Luozhan held Xia Xiaomin in his arms as he strode across the red carpet to the entrance of the banquet hall.

The waiter at the door held back his surprise. Why was his boss carrying a small chef?

The door was pushed open by the waiter. Sun Qiang, who was waiting outside, saw Zhong Luozhuang, who came out carrying Xia Xiaomin. He took a few photos, then hid himself behind the pillar.

Sun Qiang's lips curled up into a smile. The angle he took today wasn't bad, and he was confident that the headlines were going to be accurate!

Zhong Luozhuang was only thinking of leaving this place, so he strode towards his beloved car, Maybach. He didn't even notice that Sun Qiang had taken another photo behind him.

The night wind was rather cold, blowing coldly on the two of them.

Xia Xiaomin shivered, and gradually woke up with a frown.
