Chapter 313 - Little Gamblers (1/2)

If people weren't already surprised that someone like Changyu had a child with Jianjun Wang, they were very much surprised now that she announced that they were married. Even more, she was sitting beside him while smiling brightly and it looked like he was still very embarrassed by the sudden public display of affection she had just put up there a couple of minutes back.

This was so unlike the Changyu they knew. Her usual self was a cold person who did not have time for anybody. She did not talk much, neither did she smile or laugh. But looking at her now, it was very obvious that she was in love with the man. Which made a lot of men who had been crushing on her to be  disappointed and heart broken.

Because it would have been nice enough to know that Changyu was not interested in marriage, and that was the reason she had turned down most of their advances. But to think that it was actually because she was in love with someone less compared to them, they could not just understand it.

One person who looked a but heartbroken as he watched her, was Li Minde.

”I am sorry” Changyu apologized with a pleasant smile on her face. ”I must have been really insensitive. Didn't know you were hurt. And jealous..” She added.

”I am not jealous.” Jianjun denied flatly.

”So what was that about?” She raised a brow at him.

”People are looking at us. Stop messing around” He said with an embarrassed look.

”It's cute that you still get easily shy. It would have been difficult for you to ever have a girlfriend when you were younger. You're lucky I saved you”

”Why are you suddenly raising that issue now?”

”Because you're being jealous and shy. Do you want to dance with me?” She suddenly asked out of the blue.

There was a song going on already and people were already beginning to pair up.

”Sounds like a bad idea to me”

”I probably should just go find someone else then. You wouldn't get mad would you?”

”I dare you!” Jianjun challenged possessively.

”Then get your ass up and let's move. I can't remember the last time I danced in a party”

Excitedly, she pulled him along with her. And he obliged since he did not want her to dance with another man.

--

”She behaves just like you. Very straightforward” Muchen said in a low voice to his new wife as they both danced together with both his hands around her waist.

A quick laugh escaped from her mouth. ”Tell me about it” She looked up at his face with both her hands on his shoulders.

”Oh look there” Sara probed him to look at the direction she was looking at.

”I think he likes Heya” She noted as she watched Heya dance together with Zhu Liang who seemed to tower over her.

”He shouldn't even dare it” Muchen quickly shot back which caused Sara to raise a brow at him.

”You are so protective. She's a big girl and can take care of herself now.” She explained to him. But he still didn't see her as a big girl. She was his younger sister and a man's hand was around her waist!

Or probably he was feeling so uncomfortable because it was the first time seeing Heya so close with a man.

Ever since she was younger, she was always locked in her room, wallowing in self-pity and inferiority complex. It was the first time he was seeing her dance with a man.

”She'll be fine” Sara assured him before stretching to kiss his cheek.

The quick kiss seemed to suddenly make him forget everything else and just stared at her with a big smile on his face that revealed his perfect dimples.

”That's the first time you're making the move to kiss me in front of so many people. I think we should talk about Li Heya a lot”

Sara laughed and shook her head. ”You're shamless.”

”If I wasn't, you wouldn't be here now.” He admitted honestly.

”Look. Aunt Cixi seem to be having fun” He turned Sara's attention towards Cixi who was sitting besides a man.

”That should me Mr Luo. Wow!” Sara exclaimed happily.

Cixi watched as Joreen continued to chap happily with Jaime's daughter Luo Reen on the next table.

She was happy that her daughter was happy. In fact, she was extremely happy today for everything.

”They both seem to get along pretty well” Jaime said when he noticed how focused Cixi was on staring at the girls.

”Yea. Joreen easily gets along with people” Cixi commented.

”That's not the case for Reen. She's an introvert and it's almost impossible to bring her out of the house. I was surprised she willingly offered to come here with me”

”Is that right?” Cixi looked at the girls one more time.

”She seems to like you” He said with a smile.

Ever since he came to the church where Sara and Muchen wedded, he had smiled a couple of times to her. And she had to admit, for a man, he had a really beautiful smile.

As she looked at him, she could not stop having the feeling that he was younger than her. But a silly thought popped into her head that they both looked perfect together, especially as they both wore similar colour of clothes.

It seemed like everyone wanted to flaunt their perfect bodies becuase she wore a peach color bodyhug long dress with long sleeve. Her hair was in a neat bun and she had a mild make-up on her face.

She wasn't really that much into jewelries, so she wore an almost invisible necklace and silver earring.

He on the other hand, wore a cream and peach colored suit that matched hers perfectly.

He was on a simple looking Rolex watch, and on his legs were a pair of Oxford shoes.

She noticed he seemed to be looking her also.

She was about to say something about Reen when she heard Reen's voice.

”I want to watch you dance dad” She said to Jaime from the other table.

”Me, dance?” He asked her with a cocked brow.

Reen nodded. ”I have never seen you dance before. You should dance today. For me.” She added with a smile.

”Mum, you should dance too. It's the first time we're both going to a party together. Plus this is big sister's wedding.”

”You are being naughty” Cixi said with a nervous laugh that was quite similar to Jaime's.

”So...?” Jaime asked her when their eyes met.

”So...?” She asked him back, wondering what he meant.

”Want to dance with me?” He asked politely.
