Chapter 528 Impressive
"…It's just a small favor. I just want to protect my chair. After all, I don't want to stand for the entire dinner. It will really steal the limelight."
The humorous response made Hathaway laugh happily again, but she controlled herself in time -
Because they were right at the entrance of the banquet hall, if they rashly made loud noises, it would likely attract the attention of the guests inside and disrupt the banquet process, and then it would be impossible not to be high-profile.
Hathaway looked down at the hem of her skirt. Although Gawain had been very careful, the wooden thorn still hooked two threads. The sharp-eyed reporters would definitely not miss it, which also meant that she needed her agent to save her. Moreover, time was precious and she couldn't delay any longer here.
"Thanks……"
Hathaway expressed her sincere thanks again and was about to solve the problem of the skirt first, but before the words could flow in her throat, a shadow suddenly jumped out from her left hand side.
"Bang!"
The black shadow tiptoed out like a lithe cat, and a gurgling sound comparable to thunder erupted from the depths of its throat in a low voice. Immediately afterwards, a sudden storm came towards him with bared fangs and claws. The impact of the oppression could be felt from the vision to the hearing and to the touch of the skin.
"ah."
Hathaway took a step back reflexively, with all the screams and fear suppressed in her throat, but all the muscles in her body tensed up, and she even closed her eyes. She could clearly hear the roar of her pounding heart above her eardrums, and then her body began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.
So, what about Gawain?
Gawain stood with his back to the entrance of the banquet hall, and did not see the black shadow at all, until the black shadow cut into the edge of his vision. His hearing exploded first, his heart suddenly contracted, and fear and vigilance surged up at the same time. His first reaction was to clench his fists and take a defensive stance.
Turn around! Horse stance! Move out!
The entire warning reaction was completed in one go. The next second, the defensive posture was ready to launch an attack. He took a step forward and the conditioned reflex attack rushed out. The air suddenly became tense.
"Ugh!"
Jennifer Lawrence had no idea where this was going.
Originally, she was just going to the bathroom to touch up her makeup, but when she left the banquet hall, she saw Hathaway and a man talking at the door.
Although the two people kept a certain distance, they came out to talk alone while the dinner was going on. She didn't believe that there was no ambiguous inside story.
Lawrence did not see Gawain's face, but only caught a glimpse of his tall and straight figure, and the outline of his face, which vaguely seemed to be handsome. An idea for a prank came to his mind -
Hathaway married her boyfriend of four years in 2012. Although she kept a low profile after marriage, she has always been one of the typical loving couples in Hollywood.
Could it be...? The thought had just come to his mind when Lawrence immediately took action. He tiptoed like a cat and pounced towards the space between the two people. He seemed to be able to see Hathaway's frightened expression, and the joy of playing a prank was already stirring in his chest.
But!
What happened to that man?
He turned around and took a step back. Not only was he not frightened, but he also took an offensive posture. Then he stood up and rushed towards him. His slender figure instantly covered Lawrence's figure. He could even see the fist aiming straight at his nose. The advantage and disadvantage were immediately reversed.
A second ago, Lawrence was still rushing forward.
The next second, Lawrence slammed on the brakes and was almost hit by the man's chest. He stepped back subconsciously, and as a result, his steps and center of gravity were completely messed up.
Damn it.
Damn damn damn.
Lawrence wanted to swear, but she immediately realized that the room behind her was full of guests. The remaining bit of rationality in her mind stopped her from swearing, and she swallowed hard.
But her body was completely out of control. Lawrence could clearly feel the gravity pulling at her body. The earth was calling her. The light and noise of the whole world bloomed like a kaleidoscope. As the world spun, she had already descended into chaos.
Damn it!
After Gawain took a step forward, he noticed that the black figure in front of him was a woman: she was wearing a formal evening gown, a one-step skirt with a black mermaid tail, and a bikini-style bra made of flowers on the upper body. Her golden brown curly hair was neatly combed into a bun, revealing her face completely, elegant and noble.
However, what was happening right before my eyes was less elegant.
Because the skirt restricted her thighs, her steps could not keep up with the acceleration of gravity. She stumbled and lost her balance, falling backwards. Even though she waved her hands with all her might to try to maintain her balance, her chaotic steps were about to crash back into the banquet hall.
One can easily imagine that what followed would be a turmoil and chaos. Regardless of whether it would make the front pages of gossip, the guests could not be stopped from imagining things.
Oops.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Gao Wen's second reaction was very quick. He didn't have time to think about what had just happened. The only thought in his mind was "stop the situation from escalating."
So, he took a quick step forward, stretched out his hands, and quickly grabbed the woman's struggling hands. Then he took the opportunity to put his right hand around the woman's waist.
A push off the ground! A turn! As the power of his legs exploded, the power of his hands was also released. In the midst of the turbulent waves, he followed his instinct and pulled the other person into his arms, trying to keep the center of gravity of both parties at the same frequency, and then took small steps to rotate and adjust, narrowly avoiding the entrance of the banquet hall.
The figure entered the corridor again.
Spin! Spin again!
Just like a strong and tense tango, wherever you step, you can see flames blooming.
Pa pa pa! Boom boom boom! There was a burst of applause in the banquet hall, but no one knew what happened. The only thing that was certain was that no one noticed the movement at the door.
But the applause at this moment came at a strange time, as if they were applauding Gawain for his composure in the face of danger. Then the three of them subconsciously looked towards the door of the banquet hall, not caring about their own panic and embarrassment, worried that the series of unexpected situations happening here would be discovered. The sound of their beating hearts was still particularly clear in the roar of applause.
Roar, roar, roar! The banquet hall was still noisy, and the excitement of clinking glasses spread in the air, but an open door was like an invisible barrier that separated the inside and outside of the door into two worlds. After letting time flow, it was confirmed that everything that had just happened here had not been discovered.
Not bad, not bad.
But...isn't the posture a bit...
