C17 (2/2)
”I'm sorry, but I really don't want to dance right now. Thank you for your good intentions.” I covered my emotions and rejected him again.
This time, I wasn't the only one who was surprised. The entire audience went into an uproar.
After I rejected this masked man again, he sent me an invitation for the third time!
I don't know if he really wanted to dance with me or if he just wanted to hide behind his mask and tease me in front of everyone.
After I heard a few words from the crowd, I knew I could no longer refuse him.
”Isn't this woman Ye’s's design director?”
”Yes, her name is Ye Qianya, and she is also a talented designer. ”I really got lucky today!”
”I really don't know what she is thinking. She rejected such a good opportunity in front of me. This is dancing with the CEO of the Jing Hui Group. Who knows, after dancing, I might be able to sign the contract too. ”
”That's right. Didn't her last press conference get messed up? She didn't even use a chance to turn the situation. She's really stupid!”
Facing the gazes and discussions of the crowd, I had no choice but to give in. They're right, if I don't jump today, tomorrow there will be news saying that I, Ye Qianya, am a big shot.
If this masked guy was really the CEO of the Jing Hui Group, then after this dance, there would be some prospects for cooperation. Taking a step back, if this is an ordinary man, then I, Ye Qianya, have also won face.
”Since you're so stubborn, I'll dance with you.” I finally let him go.
Just as I finished speaking, a quick-witted waiter came over to help me carry my handbag. Soon after, the music began to flow on the dance floor.
This man's hands were a little rough but dry and comfortable, giving me an inexplicable sense of familiarity. He dances very well. Even when I'm taking wrong steps, he is able to match my steps so that others won't be able to see through his flaws.
The two of us were the only two people dancing on the large dance floor. Chase lights hit the top of our heads and spun with our steps.
As the melody picked up speed, he pulled me forward, and the tip of my nose was only two centimeters away from his chest. I smelled him the moment he took me out.
This was clearly Jiang Yu's scent! I can't possibly remember wrongly, I gave Jiang Yu a cheque and a bottle of perfume after an ”incident”. I smelled this man's fragrance when I was shopping. I thought it would be good if I could smell it often, so I bought one for him.
But after Jiang Yu used this perfume, the unique scent of male hormones mixed together with the smell of the perfume, unexpectedly smelled good.
What I smelt on this masked man just now was precisely this unique scent.
”Jiang Yu, is that you?” There was not a trace of panic in my steps, but my voice was not quite steady.
He didn't answer me.
”Jiang Yu, it's you, right?” I asked again.
This time, his silence was the same as before.
Could it be that my judgement was wrong? Maybe the masked guy only used the same kind of perfume as Jiang Yu, I was too impulsive.
After his silence, there was a faint sense of disappointment in my heart. I am a little unclear whether it was because Jiang Yu was not the CEO of the Jing Hui Group, or merely because this masked man was not Jiang Yu that caused her to be disappointed.
When the song was over, we greeted each other and walked in two different directions. The masked man seemed to have ascended the stairs to the second floor. I took the handbag from the waiter and went to the bar for a cocktail.
At this moment, what I needed most was to be alone and calm. Maybe it was the effect of the alcohol, but I couldn't figure out what was going on in my head. Thus, I got up and walked towards the resting area.
When I returned to the resting area, I was surprised to find that Jiang Yu had returned.
