Chapter 78 I'll reluctantly dance along with you once.
As the music started, Chen Yuan froze for a moment. Everyone else was already putting their arms around each other's waists and holding hands, but he still didn't know what to do.
"Chen Yuan?"
A voice rang out, and the next moment, Chen Yuan's hand was taken. The other person whispered, "Put your other hand on my waist."
"Oh... okay." Chen Yuan snapped out of his daze and did as Xu Zhiyi said.
As soon as she spoke, they both knew each other's identities, but Xu Zhiyi seemed to have already guessed his identity.
"You knew who I was from the beginning?" Chen Yuan asked.
"I don't know, after all, it's hard to imagine it's you with such a bizarre outfit, but now that I think about it carefully, it's not surprising that it is you," Xu Zhiyi said.
"..."
At this moment, Xu Zhiyi guided Chen Yuan to move, shifting his steps left and right, and when he needed to move forward, he would step forward and then pull his feet back.
Chen Yuan focused his mind and gradually adapted to the rhythm as Xu Zhiyi had instructed.
"Is it because I can't dance?" Chen Yuan seemed to have guessed the reason.
"Hmm," Xu Zhiyi replied, "After all, everyone here knows how to dance. If there's anyone who doesn't know how, it's probably you."
"Okay, that's true." Chen Yuan gave an awkward laugh.
And then, as whispers began to rise from beneath the melody, everyone knew who their dance partner was.
So, as the dance moves changed, everyone moved their feet and quickly received accurate information.
The man in leopard print is Chen Yuan!
This was undoubtedly a shock, and the others kept glancing at Chen Yuan. This guy really knows how to have fun.
Just as Chen Yuan was getting into the groove, the melody of the music suddenly changed.
"We're changing songs now, the rhythm is faster, follow my body movements," Xu Zhiyi said, then pulled Chen Yuan's body forward.
Chen Yuan was startled and almost fell forward.
However, Xu Zhiyi managed to support herself on one foot, then stood up, lifted Chen Yuan's hand, and began to spin it around on her own.
"..."
"It's like being on a pole, like I'm the pole," Chen Yuan said quietly.
Xu Zhiyi manipulated Chen Yuan's movements at will, saying, "Really? Then you'd better stand firm, because it's your turn to support yourself on one leg."
As they spoke, Xu Zhiyi wrapped her arms around Chen Yuan's waist and pulled him back.
"Slow down, don't be too sudden, I'm scared!" Chen Yuan said tremblingly. The pace was too fast, and he was afraid that he would strain his back.
And so, under Xu Zhiyi's control, he completed the three dances without any major incidents, and it was time for the intermission.
As the music softened, everyone stepped back, removed their masks, and went to the buffet area.
"Hi! Leopard Print Abyss," Lu Zeyan said with a smile.
"Gold-plated leather shoes?" Jiang Yichen looked at Chen Yuan's shoes, shocked. "In a way, your outfit is quite imposing!"
When everyone gathers together, they inevitably start to complain about Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan gave an awkward laugh. Could he say that he had misjudged the situation?
Fortunately, everyone had laughed enough and let him off the hook. They then ate and chatted about their outfits for the evening.
"Let's dance the next dance together. It's rare to see you dressed like this. Dancing with you will definitely boost our popularity!" Lin Wanxing said to Chen Yuan as she stepped forward.
"Forehead?"
"I don't know how, you have to guide me," Chen Yuan said after a moment of surprise.
"Were you being guided by Zhiyi just now?" Lin Wanxing asked in surprise.
"Mm." Chen Yuan nodded.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanxing extended her hand and placed it in front of Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan looked at her fair hand, realized what she meant, and then raised his hand to take Lin Wanxing's hand.
The next moment, the two walked towards the center of the ballroom.
Jiang Yichen waited to the side, looking heartbroken. He clutched his chest and muttered, "It's not pure anymore! My goddess has been bewitched by that dreadlocked leopard-print guy!"
"..."
Ji Chengyu and the others rolled their eyes at him silently, but they couldn't deny that the leopard print outfit was indeed incredibly eye-catching. They wondered if it would be too late for them to go back and change.
Chen Yuan was being treated like a doll by Lin Wanxing, who kept turning him left and right, and even making him turn his head.
Before he could catch his breath after coming off the field, Su Qingyuan came over again. "It's my turn!" she said, and without waiting for Chen Yuan's reply, she pulled him back to the field.
Lu Zeyan and the others were filled with envy and jealousy, and they all began to extend their invitations.
Soon, the masked ball turned into a dance battle.
Everyone seemed to be working together to see who could dance the best.
Chen Yuan was numb at this moment, letting them do whatever they wanted. By the time he finally stopped, he had already skipped over with the four female guests.
"Phew, finally I can breathe a sigh of relief," he muttered, leaning against the table with a glass of champagne in his hand.
Time seemed to have passed quite a bit; the dance party, which started at seven o'clock, had already reached nine o'clock.
We danced on and off for two hours, and everyone was exhausted.
Su Qingyuan and the others had already gone to sit on the sofa in the rest area. Lu Zeyan and the others were also tired, so they sat and chatted in the rest area.
Chen Yuan looked at the table full of food. Based on the principle of not wasting food, he figured he might as well eat it. In fact, he barely ate any food and kept dancing.
So, he was the only one left in the buffet area.
Soon after, Zhang Jianjian arrived, grabbed a glass of champagne, and leaned against the table, lost in thought.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and spoke to her, "Son, I'm sorry, I was a little wrong about what happened last night."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jianjian looked at Chen Yuan, remained silent for a moment, and then said, "Don't think of me as so petty. I've already forgotten about this."
"Really? That's good." Chen Yuan paused for a moment, then smiled slightly before preparing to return to his seat to continue showing off his feast. After all, he had rarely eaten lobsters bigger than the palm of his hand.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Jianjian called out to him as he was about to leave.
"Hmm?" Chen Yuan stopped and turned to look at her, thinking that Zhang Jianjian had something else to say.
Zhang Jianjian put down the champagne, raised one hand towards him, as if asking for something.
Chen Yuan was stunned. "What do you want?"
"..." Zhang Jianjian frowned slightly and said unhappily, "Everyone else has already jumped with you, so I'll reluctantly jump with you once too."
"Huh?" Chen Yuan was stunned. The next moment, seeing that Zhang Jianjian was about to get angry, he quickly nodded and replied, "Understood. Tonight, I'm your human steel pipe. Use me as you please."
As he spoke, Chen Yuan stepped forward and placed his hand in Zhang Jianjian's palm, then followed her into the arena.
Upon seeing this, the staff responsible for broadcasting music immediately selected a lyrical piece of music.
As the melody began, Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said, "I know this one. This is the song I learned the fastest." It was the music he and Xu Zhiyi used to play.
Zhang Jianjian looked up at Chen Yuan, her mouth slightly open, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't. In the end, she couldn't say what she wanted to say.
"So you really do have something to say?" Chen Yuan noticed this and asked.
"Write me a song sometime, I'd like to buy one and give it a try," Zhang Jianjian said casually.
