Now, the goddess's smile truly deserves the title of "gentle smile," radiant and captivating.
It is even more fitting to the line from Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Regret": "A single glance back and a smile can launch a thousand ships, leaving the beauties of the six palaces pale in comparison."
However, it must be admitted that a goddess is everyone's goddess, and beautiful people are always much more popular than those with average looks.
Therefore, the man in the gray suit decided to observe further before making a decision.
After that, many men came up to invite her, but Ji Zhinan hesitated for no more than three seconds before resolutely refusing each one of them...
The goddess's smile momentarily captivated the man. Ji Zhinan looked at him with slight interest, her attitude quite pleasant.
"Sir, sometimes being too clever can make you look worse."
Ji Zhinan said calmly.
The man in the gray suit paused for a moment, but understood in just a few seconds.
What she meant was that others simply believed she really had a dance partner, at least they didn't lose face; but she herself exposed her lie right away, being too blunt, and it was she who lost face...
The man in the gray suit asked somewhat reluctantly, "Miss, is it really not possible? Perhaps you don't know me well enough. If you did, you wouldn't say something like this..."
"Sir, you only approached me out of momentary interest. If you knew me well, you would understand that no matter how much I know you, you will only hear the same few things."
Before the man could finish speaking, Ji Zhinan interrupted him nonchalantly.
"..." The man in the gray suit was momentarily speechless after Ji Zhinan's words, and his momentum plummeted.
"Sir!" Before he could leave in a disheveled state, Abby spoke up, breaking the slightly tense atmosphere.
The man turned his head and saw Abby, dressed exquisitely and sexily, swaying her hips as she walked towards him. She gave him a flirtatious wink, exuding charm.
She was quite informal; on their first meeting, she took the arm of the man in the gray suit, wrapping herself around him like a snake, her voice incredibly sweet.
"Sir, may I have a dance partner?"
Abby extended the invitation very boldly.
"..." The man didn't react at first, but after recovering, he looked embarrassed. He seemed to dislike girls like Abby, but he had just been rejected. If he lost face again, he would be truly humiliated.
Moreover, in front of Ji Zhinan, his subconscious male pride made him want to salvage his image.
So, although the man in the suit wasn't entirely satisfied, he still agreed, "Of course, beautiful lady..."
Having successfully heard the answer she wanted, Abby smiled with satisfaction and gave Ji Zhinan a provocative look, which Ji Zhinan completely ignored.
The dance was about to start in three minutes, and all the young men and women present had already found their dance partners.
Apart from... Ji Zhinan and Xing Fei.
The socialites and Cao Nana gathered together again, this time to mock Ji Zhinan for not having a dance partner.
"Oh dear, isn't someone who calls herself a goddess? What's going on? Our goddess doesn't have a dance partner? Is this one of the funniest jokes of the year?"
Although he kept calling Ji Zhinan a "goddess," the sarcastic tone he used was really hurtful.
Abby's words drew ridicule and sarcasm from others.
Janet spoke while laughing.
