As the two walked into the ball, they quickly attracted the attention of many people. After all, Zhao Zhixu was a well-known figure in Linhai City.
"Am I seeing things? Zhao Zhixu actually brought a man to this dance."
"Who is that man? Is he from some family? Why does he look so unfamiliar?"
"He shouldn't be some young master, right? Is there any young master in Linhai who is this handsome?"
"Since she's not a young master from Linhai, then things will be easy. Goddess Zhao is the common pursuit of us, the Young Masters of Linhai. If she is snatched away by a poor boy, where will the young masters of Linhai put their dignity?"
"That's right, if he was just a poor boy, we would kill him! Damn it, how dare he snatch our women!"
"Damn it! The first time he showed up, he actually held Goddess Zhao's hand. I've known Goddess Zhao for so long, and I can't even say a few words to her!"
“…”
As soon as he entered the ballroom, Qin Yi immediately felt the murderous aura coming from all directions. Their eyes were focused on the hands held by the two people.
Qin Yi had a smile on his face, and he could hear the whispers around him clearly.
What's wrong with stealing one of your goddesses, Zhao? I'm also going to steal your goddess Bai. I won't leave any of the two beauties of Linhai for you.
As for threats, that’s just a joke!
"Qin Yi, why do I feel like if we hold hands, it will be more disadvantageous to you? Those young masters are looking at you strangely."
Zhao Zhixu seemed to have noticed something unusual around her. Her palms were sweating and her expression looked a little unnatural.
"No, I think everything is normal. Are you too nervous? Isn't this your first time holding hands with the opposite sex in public?"
Qin Yi leaned over and whispered in Zhao Zhixu's ear, looking very intimate.
The warm air blew into Zhao Zhixu's ears, making her already rosy face even rosier. She was even too embarrassed to look at the eyes around her and could only lower her head slightly.
"This is indeed my first time holding hands with someone of the opposite sex. I've risked my reputation to protect you. You have to compensate me!"
Zhao Zhixu spoke in a low voice, as an excuse for his behavior.
"How do you want to compensate you?" Qin Yi asked back.
"All I seek is to be as knowledgeable as the ancient scholars. Since you are better than me in music, you must teach me in this area until I can reach your level. Of course, if you excel in other areas, you will also need to pass on your knowledge to me."
Zhao Zhixu thought about it and said very seriously.
"This..." Qin Yi looked embarrassed.
"What's wrong? Are you having any difficulties?" Zhao Zhixu asked puzzledly.
"Of course, I know a lot, not just music. If you want me to guide you, it may take a lifetime." Qin Yi raised the corners of his mouth and said meaningfully.
"I learn quickly. If you are truly knowledgeable, what does it matter if I spend my whole life studying?"
Zhao Zhixu's eyes lit up and he answered immediately.
But she soon realized the problem in their conversation and quickly explained:
"Don't get me wrong, what I meant was that I want to spend my whole life with you... No, no, I want to spend my whole life with you..."
The more Zhao Zhixu explained, the more he felt something was wrong, and he always felt that something had gone wrong.
"I know you want to spend your whole life studying music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and literary classics with me." Qin Yi said softly, expressing his understanding.
"Yes, that's what I mean."
Zhao Zhixu nodded. Although he still felt it was a little strange, the meaning was correct.
This scene between the two of them was completely seen by the onlookers, especially the ambiguous words between the two, which broke the hearts of the wealthy young men around them.
"Did you hear that? Goddess Zhao has truly fallen for him and wants to be with this guy forever. I'm going to arrange for someone to investigate this guy's background right now!"
"Damn it! What's there to investigate? As long as he's not a local wealthy family in Linhai, we can just find someone to deal with him! Even if he is a wealthy family in the imperial capital, how can he destroy the entire Linhai force without knowing the murderer?"
"That's true. Damn, what makes this guy better than me? He's just a little bit more handsome than me!"
“…”
Compared to the indignation of the young masters, the rich daughters present were all filled with jealousy when they looked at Zhao Zhixu.
"All the handsome young men in Linhai are obsessed with Bai Qiong and Zhao Zhixu! Linhai's most outstanding young man, Gao Li, is already occupied by Bai Qiong and is engaged to the Bai family. Now, the most handsome young man in Linhai is holding hands with Zhao Zhixu and promising to spend his whole life together! Why do these two get all the good things?"
"Yeah, that's simply too much! Gao Li alone is already the limit of our patience. This little brother, no matter what, we have to fight for it! It's not because of this little brother's handsomeness, but I can't swallow this!"
"Sisters are right. We can't always be passive. I don't believe that so many of us can't pry Zhao Zhixu away!"
“…”
Different from the hatred of the young masters, these rich girls are not only jealous, but also fascinated by Qin Yi's handsomeness.
There were even many who were blatant and sent out flirtatious glances directly.
"I have to say, the quality of the girls from the wealthy families in Linhai is very good. If they were in the outside world, they would all be top-notch beauties!"
Qin Yi muttered to himself. He naturally enjoyed the feeling of being remembered by the girls, and at the same time he was looking forward to these beauties coming up and chatting with him.
Of course, although these people are extremely beautiful, they are still a certain distance away from Bai Qiong and Zhao Zhixu. It's okay to flirt with them, but forget about making friends with them. After all, Qin Yi is a man of great taste, otherwise what's the difference between him and a stud?
The two came to the center of the ball, and everyone's eyes were focused on them. Although there was jealousy and hatred, they couldn't help but think of a sentence.
The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world!
"Bai Qiong and Gao Li are here together. It seems their engagement is confirmed. I remember Bai Qiong was very against Gao Li before. It seems that the Bai family is really facing a big crisis."
Someone shouted, and there was a commotion in the crowd. Some of them looked back at Qin Yi and Zhao Zhixu.
Some people in the crowd were whispering, showing disdain for Bai Qiong and the Bai family.
"If Bai Qiong is really engaged to Gao Li because of the Bai family, then Bai Qiong was just pretending to be noble! Alas, women! They are all for sale!"
"That's right! But I have to admire her. She can stabilize the Bai family by just selling her cunt. She's quite impressive."
"Alas, the Bai family is in trouble right now, and Bai Qiong is motivated by money. Brothers, you all have millions in pocket money, right? The next time the Bai family is in crisis, we can use our money to break Bai Qiong's legs!"
"It's not impossible. I heard that the director of the Bai Group came to the Bai family that day, and Bai Qiong relied on her beauty to make..."
