CHAPTER 146

She did not know why, but all he said was that there was an event and he would love it if she could accompany him there as his date.

"But I don't dance," Li Jing quickly protested before things got out of hand.

"Follow my lead, I would teach you."

There was no room for arguments now. Extending his hand and she taking it, both of them walked over to the centre of the hall and soon another beautiful music started flowing when they saw the gorgeous couple at the dance floor.

Li Jing took in a deep breath as she placed one hand on his shoulders and the other o his palm and Ye Cheng snaked his other hand on her waist and pulled her body closer to his.

"Ready?"

"Never."

"You will." He let out a soft chuckle and they started dancing. For Li Jing who said she didn't dance, the way she danced and moved her body in sync with the music and his steps, she looked like a floating swan on the dance floor and her graceful movements had only ended up attracting all eyes in the hall as everyone stopped with what they were doing and looked at the pair.

Although they were not the celebrants, they were in no doubt a couple of the day.

"I thought you said you didn't know how to dance," Ye Cheng asked, starting a conversation as their bodies swayed to the music.

"No. I never said I can't dance. I only said I don't dance,"

"But that is equally same."

"They are not one and the same even though they almost connate the same thing. I can dance, I just do not do it often. Better still, I wasn't allowed to as I pleased, so I basically did not dance neither was I allowed to such functions."

"I see."

They did not say anything anymore and continued with their dance and at the end of music, Ye Cheng twirled her and by the time she got back into his arms, he held her dipped her backwards, so she leaned back.

A loud round of applause erupted in the hall at their lovely display. Ye Cheng brought her back up and looked deep into her eyes.

"That was…"

"Thank you."

"Why are you thanking me?" Li Jing could not understand the reason for such a gesture.

'For coming into my life and being so stunning.' Ye Cheng said in his mind but on the surface, he just had a nice smile on.

That was when it clicked in his mind that he had not yet told her how beautiful she looked. Li Jing pulled her hand on his shoulder away and let them slip to his chest and was about pulling away when a very slow romantic music started playing but Ye Cheng's grip on her waist tightened.

"Where do you think you are going?"

"We just finished right?"

"We just started. From now on we dance until dawn." Li Jing's eyes shot open in disbelief. Sweet laughter escaped Ye Cheng's lips at her dismay before correcting things. "Kidding but from here it is dance till 11 pm."

"I can't dance for that long! Even you would be tired." Li Jing protested quickly and stating her own problem. This was the first time she was dancing in years and honestly, she did not know she still had it in her to do so and now he wanted her to dance till… h.e.l.l no!

"I know, baby."

'Baby! Who is he calling a babe?" Li Jing's thoughts were running haphazardly in her mind and she was definitely going to tire out in her brain first before her legs gave way to its weakness.

"Just this last one and we can go wish the birthday celebrant a happy birthday, hmm?"

"Fine, just this once."

By now other couples had joined in on the dance floor and they continued from where they left off. Minutes into the dance, Ye Cheng pressed Li Jing closer to himself so it was like they were hugging but all he wanted to do bring her close so she could hear what he was going to say.

It was for her ears only.

He peered deep into her eyes, the same ones having the very depth of joy as his. He could tell she felt happy and excited about everything that was happening and he was glad that nothing bad had happened so far.

"You are staring."

"I know. I can't take my eyes off the beauty you radiate and that confident smile on your face, making your lips all too alluring."

Li Jing blushed at his comment. Ye Cheng realizing what he had just said quickly changed his words so he doesn't come off as a pervert.

"I mean, you look gorgeous and extremely alluring in that dress and mesmerizing while exuding so much elegance and simplicity. I am sorry it is coming late but, you got me tongue-tied with your looks so I thought I should save it for later."

Words could not describe how Li Jing was feeling from his compliment and all she could do was flash him her trademark smile that left men speechless and at a loss of words. Of which she ended up doing to the poor Ye Cheng.

He smiled and brought his forehead closer to hers. They danced like that for some time before changing posture. The song finished and Ye Cheng made them dance to two more rounds of music before he finally pulled Li Jing off of the dance floor.

To him, the public had seen her enough and now it was time to take her away from their eyes. Almost all the men had a look of l.u.s.t and desire as their gaze fell on her, wishing they could be the one standing next to her.

This only further boosted Ye Cheng's pride and he led her to greet Mrs Lin.

On their way, they were once again met with an almost unfortunate accident. It was Reporter Ying Yue.

She had been dancing to fast music that seemed to be playing in her head with her eyes half-closed and failed to notice the couple walking in her direction and almost spilt her drink on Ye Cheng.

"Oh my, sorry."
