At the ball, Tchaikovsky's 'The Nutcracker' was being played .
Mu Liang and Mu Lan were dancing on the third music .
Mu Liang kept recalling the night on the Seine River in their boat, they were dancing on the waltz, alone . Remembering that night, his eyes heated . But he controlled himself so well that Mu Lan couldn't find anything .
When they were dancing, they were looking at each other's eyes . It felt like that they were in their own world . Their intertwined hands were warm . Mu Liang's right which was on her back was warm enough to make her feel that . Her dress wasn't thin but she could feel that his hot hand's warmth against her back and it spread her whole body . As their bodies were too close, they could sense each other's breaths . Mu Lan's face gradually became hot . She felt extremely shy . She wanted to look away . However, Mu Liang's ocean blue eyes captivated her, so she couldn't .
Women around them were burning in jealousy . They cursed Mu Lan . On the contrary, men were offended . They wanted to dance with Mu Lan, especially the young generation . The old generation wanted to have a chance to talk to her and make her agree to marry their grandchildren . But Mu Liang danced with her three times already and had no wish to leave her be .
Those who knew Mu Liang, they were utterly shocked seeing him dancing with a woman . They thought that either they were hallucinating or they were still dreaming and didn't wake up . Because Mu Liang never even try to get close to women, let alone touch them . Now he was dancing handsomely .
Mu Lan and Mu Liang danced till the music ended . Looking at Mu Lan's tired face, Mu Liang took her in the food section .
"Eat some fruits . " Mu Liang gave her a plate and some fruits .
"I'm not hungry . " Mu Lan could sense that people were watching them .
"You look thinner than before . You worked too hard . Have some fruit custard . " Mu Liang didn't look anywhere and all his attention was towards the girl beside him .
Mu Lan didn't argue with him and obediently ate .
"You look beautiful . " All of a sudden, Mu Liang blurted out .
Mu Lan almost choked . She still had food on her mouth . Her face was flushed red .
Mu Liang handed her a glass of water . "Drink it . " He said worriedly .
Mu Lan drank a mouthful water .
Mu Liang asked, "Are you alright?"
Mu Lan complained with her red face, "Whose fault is that?" After a moment she asked, "Did you tell Xiao Ying to design our costumes in same style?"
"It's business . Qi Ying needs to earn money . After she refused to listen to her father, he cut ties with her . Now she had to pay for her tuition . I ordered her with money in exchange of costume for us and Feng . " Mu Liang said .
Mu Lan thought so after she saw his and Mu Feng's outfits . She was relieved that someone was backing Qi Ying . After Yan Su told Mu Lan and Xue Lin about Qi Ying's family problem, she was worried about Qi Ying .
Mu Lan asked, "Can't Mu Feng take her responsibility?"
Mu Liang shook his head, "She is too proud for that . "
When this Mu couple were talking about second Mu couple, Mu Feng and Qi Ying were in the balcony .
Mu Feng hugged her close to him . He said, "The moon is so bright tonight . "
Qi Ying smiled in his arms . Her smile was ever so sweet in the night of the ball .
Mu Feng was looking at her face with affection . Seeing her smile, his mind went blank . He couldn't help kissing her deeply .
Qi Ying's eyes became larger in shock . When she realized what just happened, her body trembled . She tried to push him away but in vain .
She was always so shy and mild . She never liked the crowd . So it was hard for her to have such an intimate moment in the public place .
When Qi Ying couldn't stop her boyfriend, she stomped him with all her might .
In instant, Mu Feng let go . He was shocked by the surprised attack from his beloved . He didn't take time to recover from the shock . Just then he realized his mistake . But that moment, Qi Ying wasn't by his side .
Panicked, Mu Feng ran towards her .
In the corridor, he chased after her from behind . He was too distracted to watch his surroundings .
A beautiful golden heel shoe tripped him . As he fell down on the floor, he heard a sultry laughter .
"Chasing after you wife after eating her, dear cousin? You are such a dog!" The beautiful lady in golden gown said . Her voice was full of amusement .
Mu Feng gritted his teeth . He growled, "Damn you Yan Su!"
