Wen Yi's first reaction was that the Second Master Gu might just be playing a prank on her.
But upon closer reflection, Master Gu really didn't need to tease him. He could have said something else, even something hurtful or cutting.
He really doesn't need to waste his time teasing himself; it's pointless.
But if Wen Yi were to believe that what Master Gu said just now was from the bottom of his heart, she wouldn't quite believe it.
"Second Madam, should we ask Second Master?" Xiao Kongkong asked tentatively.
Wen shook her head. "No need. Since it's already decided, let's spend two days practicing a waltz in a wheelchair."
"OK."
"I need to find a good dancer to practice with."
"OK."
"Make the arrangements now. I need to practice in an hour," Wen Yi reminded him.
Xiao Kongkong nodded, "I'll make the arrangements right now."
She left the room.
An hour later, at the Royal Garden Dance Studio.
Wen Yi appeared, dressed in her dance costume, and watched as Xiao Kongkong pushed her wheelchair in.
Wen Yitai was very familiar with the person in the wheelchair...
The male owner of the Imperial Garden, Master Gu!
He always wore a mask, sat in a wheelchair, his posture slightly languid, and a slight smile played on his lips as he quietly watched Wen Yi.
Xiao Kongkong pushed Master Gu in front of Wen Yi, looking at him with a somewhat troubled expression.
"I've already arranged dancers, but Second Master's intention is..."
"If I dance with you, it will show our intimacy and allow me to better teach Madam to dance this special waltz," said Second Master Gu, supporting himself with his hands.
Xiao Kongkong dared not utter a sound.
Wen Yi gave Xiao Kongkong a look, signaling her to get on with her work, while the dance teacher stood aside.
Wen Yi said, "Let's begin."
As the music began, the dance instructor started directing, "Madam, you need to circle around the Second Master and hold his hand."
Wen Yi danced to the music, following the dance teacher's instructions, her hands resting on Master Gu's wheelchair as she spun in rhythm, before finally taking Master Gu's hand.
"Madam is sitting on Second Master's lap," the dance teacher reminded her.
Wen Yi sat down without hesitation, hooked her arms around Master Gu's neck, and looked up to meet Master Gu's gaze.
With a smile on his face, Master Gu held Wen Yi in one arm and operated the wheelchair with the other, spinning around to the music around him.
At the climax of the music, Gu Huaixu pushed Wen Yi out, and Wen Yi turned into someone who was sitting in a wheelchair and spinning around with him.
The two of them performed a very special waltz, following the rhythm of the music.
The song ended.
Wen Yi exerted a lot of effort; her lung capacity was a bit insufficient, and her breathing was a bit heavy.
The teacher standing nearby clapped, "The Second Master and Madam's performance was perfect. This dance was both beautiful and unique, and it will definitely become a super focus at the ball."
The dance teacher really likes it.
Ke Wen stood to the side, letting the sweat slide down her forehead, and turned her head to look at the very composed Second Master Gu, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
She suddenly laughed, in a rather sarcastic tone.
"Second Master, may I ask you a question?" Wen Yi asked.
Gu Huaixu nodded, "Of course I can. I will answer whatever you want to ask, my wife. This is the basic integrity of a husband."
"Second Master, don't you realize that you've been talking more lately, and becoming more glib?"
"Is it because you couldn't help yourself to your wife?"
"Oh."
Wen Yi laughed out loud. What an involuntary laugh! It's amazing that this man could just blurt it out like that. Doesn't he care about being laughed at?
That's hilarious.
"Is this the question Madam wanted to ask me?" Gu Huaixu asked with a smile.
"Of course not."
"What would you like to ask, Madam?"
"I want to ask you, you just told me in the room that you are my husband and that we will share both honor and disgrace. Did you mean it, or were you just teasing me?"
“Of course it’s true!” Gu Huaixu blurted out, then corrected himself and added, “These are my heartfelt words.”
Wen Yi remained silent.
Gu Huaixu countered, "Does Madam mean you don't believe me?"
"I really want to believe it, but what Second Master did makes me doubt it. I really don't know how to believe it."
"What did I do?" Gu Huaixu asked in return.
Wen turned to stare at her.
To be honest, the other party is now in a wheelchair and is half the height of Wen Yi, but his aura is not weak at all.
Aside from his disfigured face, this man possesses an exceptional demeanor and presence.
The upper echelons are enough to easily defeat a young master like Gu Zeyu.
Wen Yi said, "You make me believe you'll share my fate, but then you push me out to have such an intimate waltz with another man. Second Master, what makes me think I should believe you'll share my fate?"
"Mr. Zhan is quite special."
"So special that when he handed me over to him, Second Master didn't even blink an eye?"
“Madam, you have misunderstood. I have no intention of giving you to Mr. Zhan,” Gu Huaixu corrected, his eyes serious and his expression solemn.
He reminded Wen Yi that this was a genuine misunderstanding, saying, "Madam, please don't overthink things and let them affect our relationship."
"Second Master, please understand, there is no misunderstanding between us."
"What you're trying to say, madam, is that you're not interested in me, so please don't misunderstand and think you're angry because I gave you to another man, is that right?"
Wen Yi remained silent, but this implied that he tacitly agreed with what Master Gu had said.
When Xiao Kongkong mentioned it before, Wen Yi didn't have the perception that she was in a hurry to be given to another man by Master Gu.
Until this waltz begins.
This is an extremely intimate act, especially since Wen Yi will be sitting on Mr. Zhan's lap, who is in a wheelchair, and will be dancing intimately with him.
Because of the normal dance just now, it's clear how intimate Wen Yi and Mr. Zhan will be during the banquet in just a few minutes.
This is tantamount to handing Wen Yi over to Mr. Zhan.
No difference!
"Madam, you have truly misunderstood. I want to emphasize again that I have no intention of giving you to Mr. Zhan. The dance will be changed accordingly."
"Will the dance include a scene where I sit on Mr. Zhan's lap?" Wen asked.
Gu Huaixu nodded, "Yes, there is."
Wen Yi sneered, "Then Second Master, don't try to argue. If you say honestly that you really want to give me to Mr. Zhan, then I will consider it as respect for you."
Wen Yi was too lazy to say anything more to the other person and was about to leave the dance studio.
But as Wen Yi walked past Master Gu, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Wen Yi's arm.
"Let me go!" Wen Yi said coldly.
"Madam, I can explain it to you in more detail."
“No need.” Wen Yi’s attitude was clear. “Besides, Second Master, rest assured, since we share the same fate, I will not refuse this dance if you want to give me to someone else.”
