Chapter 632: Reluctantly
Nie Yao raised her eyebrows in amusement, shook her head in disapproval, and stretched out her hand towards him: "Let's go——"
"Where are you going?" Li Jinxing raised his eyebrows.
"One more dance--" Nie Yao replied with a smile.
"Aren't your feet tired?" Li Jinxing subconsciously lowered his head to look at her feet and asked worriedly.
"I've rested for a while, and I feel much better now..." Nie Yao smiled faintly, turned her head and pointed at the band and said, "Listen, they're playing a slow jam now. You don't need to put in too much effort, just dance to the music slowly!"
Li Jinxing curled the corners of his lips slightly, took the hand she extended, nodded and smiled: "Okay!"
The two of them returned to the crowd hand in hand, began to hug each other, and slowly danced to a slow and melodious music.
Nie Yao and Li Jinxing danced to the center of the dance floor and discovered that their cousin Yu Wanqing was also dancing with Nie Xiao. They raised their eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Why are you two now dance partners?"
"There's no way. I can't find a suitable dance partner. There aren't many people my age, and I don't want to dance with an old man. I can only force myself..." Yu Wanqing shrugged helplessly and explained to Nie Yao.
Nie Xiao frowned slightly and said bluntly, "Am I not the one who is forcing myself to do this? I don't want to jump at all, but you insist on making me do it!"
"Nie Xiao, I'm your sister's cousin, how dare you talk to me like that?" Yu Wanqing tapped Nie Xiao on the forehead and lectured him unhappily.
"Sister Wanqing, you are the daughter of a wealthy family after all. Can you please behave more like a lady?" Nie Xiao gasped and sighed softly after being flicked by her finger.
Seeing the interaction between the two, Nie Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"I'm doing this for your own good. You've been abroad for years, and it's rare for you to come back and attend a large banquet. Do you really want to sit on the sidelines and watch like Nie Jinxi?"
After Yu Wanqing said this, she did not forget to nod at Nie Jinxi who was sitting on the side watching.
Nie Yao subconsciously looked in Yu Wanqing's direction and discovered that Nie Jinxi was still at the banquet. She couldn't help but shake her head and chuckle at Li Jinxing, "I thought Nie Jinxi had just embarrassed herself and said she had a foot injury, so she would honestly go back to her room to rest..."
"She dressed up so carefully, isn't it just to shine at the banquet?" Li Jinxing sneered, not bothering to even glance at Nie Jinxi.
Nie Xiao didn't even look at Nie Jinxi. He just snorted coldly and said to Wan Qing, "If I were her, I would have left here long ago after losing so much face!"
"Your situation is different..." Yu Wanqing sighed softly, and her gaze towards Nie Xiao became more gentle. "Nie Xiao, I'm really happy that you can come today! This is Nie Yao and Li Jiuye's engagement party. Just attend it openly. You don't have to worry about any social occasions in the future, and no one will dare to gossip about you!"
When Nie Xiao was in high school and was caught having sex with men in a KTV, she believed that Nie Xiao was innocent, even if it was said that the elders of the Nie family caught him red-handed...
It’s a pity that Nie Xiao, this aloof guy, rarely sends messages to her when he goes abroad to study. Now he can come to this banquet, which is extremely important for his future return in the wealthy circle!
It was precisely because of this that, seeing that Nie Xiao had no dance partner, she, as the elder sister, took the initiative to dance with Nie Xiao. However, this boy didn't understand her kindness and his expression was so reluctant!
