From Sidekick to Bigshot

If Jian Yiling refused again, the situation would become really awkward.

Especially if she refused Zhai Yunsheng again. Half the attention of the entire crowd was on him today.

If it was a stranger standing in front of her today, Jian Yiling wouldn’t have thought twice about whether or not that stranger would be embarrassed.

However, it was Zhai Yunsheng. In the past, Zhai Yunsheng had helped her many times. And thus, Jian Yiling couldn’t simply ignore his request.

After weighing her options, Jian Yiling got up and placed one of her hands on Zhai Yunsheng’s palm.

The moment her palm touched his hand, Jian Yiling flinched for a moment.

Zhai Yunsheng looked down at the soft white hand in his palm. He gently pulled her over and led her to the dance floor.

Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan watched their daughter leave with mixed feelings. Their daughter had been invited to dance with a dangerous man. They couldn’t help but feel worried.

However, even though they were worried, the only thing that they could do was watch. On such an occasion, it was reasonable for a man to invite a woman to dance. Since Jian Yiling had also agreed to dance with Zhai Yunsheng, the two of them couldn’t say much either.

Qin Chuan had also intended to walk over to Jian Yiling’s corner. However, on his way there, he was stopped by a few people. These people congratulated and exchanged pleasantries with him. After that, he saw Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng enter the dance floor together.

Qin Chuan asked the people around him and found out that the man was Zhai Yunsheng.

Qin Yufan didn’t mind Zhai Yunsheng rejecting her invitation. However, what she did mind was that Zhai Yunsheng had invited another girl to dance after rejecting her.

This was the first time Qin Yufan had ever looked at a girl in this way.

It was a young girl who looked several years younger than her.

For the first time, Qin Yufan felt jealousy.

Zhai Yunsheng, who had never let a woman get close to him, had asked a young girl to dance with him.

He Yan also looked at the scene in front of her. She couldn’t describe what she was feeling.

The only thing that she could say was that Jian Yiling was incredibly tactful. She appeared to look soft and weak on the outside. However, in reality, she was calculating and ruthless! Otherwise, why would Zhai Yunsheng fall for her?!

He Yan then took a glance at Wen Nuan. When she saw the worried expression on Wen Nuan’s face, she couldn’t help but sneer to herself.

Her sister-in-law was indeed good at pretending! Her daughter was quite capable. So capable that she managed to climb into the arms of Master Sheng. And there Wen Nuan was, pretending to be worried. It was obvious that in her heart she was delighted about this matter!

Now, the attention of the entire banquet hall fell on Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.

This was rare. Way too rare.

Master Sheng from the capital was dancing with the Jian family’s domineering and unreasonable young lady.

After entering the dance floor, Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling did not care about the eyes of others.

Jian Yiling really did not know how to dance. And thus, Zhai Yunsheng began to patiently teach her.

Then, Zhai Yunsheng noticed that Jian Yiling was incredibly clumsy at dancing. It seemed as though being nimble with one’s fingers had no correlation to their dance skills.

It appeared as though he discovered one of her shortcomings.

And thus, Zhai Yunsheng started to laugh.

He lowered his head and whispered in Jian Yiling’s ears: “If you really don’t know how to dance, just step on my shoes. I’ll lead you.”

As Zhai Yunsheng had suddenly gotten too close to Jian Yiling, her entire body stiffened.

“No. Don’t… Don’t come too close.”

Her voice was incredibly soft and embarrassed.

Zhai Yunsheng’s smile grew as he asked: “Could it be that this is your first time dancing with a man?”

“Yes.”

Upon hearing this answer, Zhai Yunsheng smiled even more, “Actually, this is also the first time that I’ve danced with a girl.”

“Then, who did you dance with before?”

It was obvious that Zhai Yunsheng knew how to dance. He was very skilled at dancing.
