Chapter 411 Ye Jiaojiao arrives, Si Ming is surprised
The onlookers around didn't have to wait for long.
Whether it was the invitation from Janice herself, the olive branch from the First Legion, or the royal family.
Si Ming was not prepared to answer any of them.
Si Ming moved his eyes slightly and set his sights on Janice.
Seeing this, Janice's smile brightened immediately, but Si Ming remained the same.
His eyes were calm, maintaining the most basic manners.
There was no trace of softness in his attitude.
As the eldest son of the Si family, he was only able to show basic courtesy to guests and yet he was inherently distant.
"Sorry, I already have a partner."
After saying that, Si Ming immediately withdrew his gaze, no longer paying attention to anyone or anything, and walked into the middle of the dance floor with Chen Jing in his arm.
Janice froze for a moment, then quickly recovered and left the dance floor with a smile, making room for Si Ming and Mrs. Si.
Music started playing in the banquet hall.
The mother and son on the dance floor became the focus of everyone's attention.
Janice retreated back into the crowd.
Somewhere in the back, General Levi of the First Legion stood with Grand Prince Weka. The former spoke first, his voice particularly soft:
"This is the second time Si Ming has rejected Janice. It seems he really has no intention of establishing any connection with the First Legion."
During the Mecha League.
Janice once went to the Fifth Army base on the pretext of sending contestants to visit the Fifth Army, and on behalf of the First Army, she extended a cooperation invitation to the Fifth Army.
In the end, Ye Jiaojiao's appearance made her leave sadly. When she returned, Janice reported the matter, and the royal family and the First Legion knew that Si Ming already had a lover.
Despite this, the royal family still did not give up, especially since the marshal had expressed his position just a few minutes ago, so there was a second attempt.
After Levi finished speaking, the eyes of the eldest prince Wicca darkened, and under his upright and polite face, there was a hint of irritability and cruelty.
"Last time, Janice came back from the Fifth Army and said she saw Si Ming getting intimate with a young woman. It's been so long, haven't you found that woman's information yet?"
"No."
Levi shook his head, equally confused.
In the existing intelligence, they had never received any news that Si Ming was close to any young woman.
However, if such a person really exists, it is most likely Si Ming and the Si family behind him, who protect people too well.
No new news appeared.
After the song ended, Si Ming and Chen Jing both stopped.
The host of the banquet had already expressed his opinion, so there were not many procedures to follow. Si Ming took his mother's hand and left the venue, ready to retreat.
Ye Jiaojiao is not here.
The real purpose of this birthday party was also achieved.
He was in no mood to deal with anyone else.
I just want to find a quiet place to stay quietly.
Realizing that their son's mind was not here, Si Yufeng and Shen Jing did not ask any further questions, and tacitly agreed that Si Ming could move freely.
Before leaving, the music started again in the dance floor and those who were interested entered in pairs.
Si Ming took a casual glance and found the people from the Fifth Army among the guests. He prepared to take a look around before leaving.
People who saw Si Ming coming towards them silently made way for him.
The journey was smooth.
Si Ming quickly found Edwin and others.
"Today is your birthday party after all. If you leave so early, some people will inevitably have something to say." Edwin said helplessly.
Si Ming picked up a glass of champagne with a cold expression.
"random."
He was just a tool tonight.
Si Ming doesn't care about those insignificant people at all.
After a brief greeting, Si Ming prepared to leave.
He walked around and prepared to sit in the back garden.
Although he kept a low profile throughout, he was the eldest son of the Si family and the youngest major general in the empire. No matter where he went, people were paying attention to him, so many people in the hall noticed his movements.
Guessing that Si Ming was about to leave, one gaze after another could not help but follow him quietly. Just as Si Ming was about to walk out of the banquet hall, a light green skirt caught everyone's sight.
Being stopped suddenly, Si Ming subconsciously frowned, his eyes narrowed, and the emotion in his eyes clearly showed his impatience.
Before coming, Ye Jiaojiao changed into an evening dress.
The light green long skirt had no excessive embellishments, except for a few conspicuous flowers at the wrists and waist. She looked like an elf walking out of the countryside, and her skin looked even more delicate and fair.
The two stood facing each other.
It complements Si Ming's seriousness and solemnity, making them a perfect match.
Watching Si Ming's expression change from impatience to surprise and then to delight.
Ye Jiaojiao smiled and said seriously:
"Sir, may I ask you for a dance?"
Because of the delay on the way here, Ye Jiaojiao was unable to catch the first dance of the night, and she didn't know that Janice had also invited Si Ming before.
She just thought that today was her Taoist partner's birthday party, and since she chose to attend, she might as well do it openly.
The familiar scene was repeated again so quickly.
There was a sudden pause in the banquet hall.
There were only a few people present who knew Ye Jiaojiao. Their reaction was the same as Si Ming's: they were surprised, and then felt happy.
Those who didn't know Ye Jiaojiao just thought that this person was too bold. After Janice, she even dared to test Si Ming's attitude. They all guessed in their hearts how Si Ming would reject her.
until--
"certainly."
The tone was powerful.
Si Ming stared straight at his beloved with deep eyes.
Without waiting for Ye Jiaojiao to say anything or respond, facing the frightened gazes of the people around him, Si Minghan eagerly took Ye Jiaojiao's hand, and the two of them strode to the center of the dance floor.
"What's going on?"
"Why does Major General Si suddenly seem like a different person?"
A girl who was in love with Si Ming stupidly tugged at her best friend beside her, and was deeply shocked by the scene before her.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Si Ming was impatient, as if he was afraid that the young woman he was holding would regret dancing with him.
Equipment room.
After Si Ming brought Ye Jiaojiao into the venue, the logistics staff tactfully changed the song to a sweet one, and the other people dancing on the dance floor also quietly left.
With no one organizing the dance, it was as if they had returned to the first dance of the night. Everyone's eyes were focused on the dance floor. The only difference was that Si Ming had a new dance partner.
"Why is Jiaojiao here?"
Following the dance beat, Si Ming intimately held his wife's slender waist, his chin slightly lowered, and quietly narrowed the distance between them.
Feeling her partner's hot breath spraying on her earlobe, Ye Jiaojiao's cheeks turned hot, but she did not dodge.
She raised her head with a smile on her face, her bright eyes like water filled with starlight that was enough to bewitch people.
"I'm coming, are you happy, Ming?"
"Happy."
A soft chuckle slowly emerged from his throat. The man's low voice was sexy and hoarse, which invisibly made people's hearts tremble.
Si Ming was really happy.
The arrival of his lovely little wife was the best birthday gift he received this year.
