Although Gu Chen’s leg had not recovered much, Shen Xi could feel that Gu Chen was a good dancer. He must have attended the ball often when his leg was not injured, right?
“Xi, can I get a little closer to you? My right foot seems to hurt a little.” Gu Chen gasped slightly as he asked for Shen Xi’s opinion.
Shen Xi frowned slightly and said, “How about we rest?”
In the darkness, Shen Xi could feel the change in the airflow caused by Gu Chen shaking his head. Then, she heard Gu Chen’s pitiful voice, “No, this is a good start for me. I don’t want to give up halfway. I’m fine. I can endure it a little longer. It doesn’t hurt that much.”
Shen Xi couldn’t help but sigh softly. Then, she raised her hands and gently clasped Gu Chen’s shoulders. She pulled him toward her and let Gu Chen lean on her palm. This way, they wouldn’t be too close, and at the same time, she could stabilize Gu Chen’s body well.
Fortunately, Shen Xi was not short. Otherwise, she really could not support Gu Chen.
In the dark, Gu Chen’s lips curled up. His hands were naturally placed on Shen Xi’s waist. His palms passed through the silky dress and controlled her slender waist.
Closing his eyes and feeling the warmth in his palm, Gu Chen moved closer to
Shen Xi. He lowered his head slightly and greedily sniffed the fragrance in Shen Xisi’s hair. He said, “Xi, I’m sorry. I’ve troubled you too much.”
Shen Xi could already feel Gu Chen’s hot breath by her ear.
Just as Shen Xi thought that Gu Chen was taking advantage of her and she was about to turn her head uncomfortably, Gu Chen raised his head.
Shen Xi instantly felt that she was overthinking. Gu Chen was such a beautiful boy. How could she think so poorly of him?
At this moment, with a “ding” sound, the surrounding lights slowly lit up. Everyone looked at the person they had pulled into the darkness.
Shen Xi looked up slightly and saw Gu Chen looking down at her with a faint smile. When their eyes met, Shen Xi was attracted by his beautiful eyes. She gradually became a little dazed. She wanted to let go immediately, but she suddenly forgot.
The dance music in the darkness continued until it was bright. Everyone followed the waiter’s instructions and retreated to the surroundings. The center of the dance floor was given to Shen Xi and Gu Chen.
Zhao Yuan looked at the two dancing on the dance floor, and she almost popped her eyes. The woman was wearing clothes and a mask. She could tell that Shen Xi was wearing it. Although the man wore a devil mask, he was Gu Chen, sitting in a wheelchair now.
Why did Gu Chen suddenly stand up? Why was Xi dancing with Gu Chen? Where was Guan Lei?
One question after another was thrown at Zhao Yuan, making her dizzy.
Everyone looked shocked at Gu Chen in the middle of the dance floor. Gu Chen, who had not stood up for ten years, suddenly stood up at the birthday party and even danced with a girl.
At this time, Shen Xi’s eyes were slightly dull, which dissatisfied Gu Chen. So, his charming eyes locked onto Shen Xi’s gaze. Then, with a soft snap of his fingers, Shen Xi’s eyes instantly became clear.
Shen Xi felt that something was wrong. She felt like she was being led by someone just now. It was an uncomfortable feeling of being bound by someone.
Shen Xi looked at Gu Chen with a puzzled look, and Gu Chen just smiled at
Shen Xi. In an instant, His smile was as bright as the peach blossoms in spring.
Shen Xi was slightly stunned and then retracted her gaze. She realized that her hand was still on Gu Chen’s shoulder and hurriedly abandoned it.
The strength that was supporting his body suddenly disappeared. Gu Chen was shocked. Under Shen Xi’s same astonished gaze, Gu Chen fell toward Shen Xi.
The 1.8-meter-tall Gu Chen pressed down heavily on Shen Xi. Shen Xi staggered, and before she could dodge, she felt a tight grip on her waist. Then, the world suddenly spun. Then, she heard a sound “bang,” followed by a muffled groan.
Shen Xi’s face was ugly as she pressed against Gu Chen’s chest. Gu Chen’s hand was tightly wrapped around her waist. He was so strong that he almost broke Shen Xi’s waist.
“Let… Let go. Are you trying to strangle me to death?” Shen Xi raised her head with difficulty and said to Gu Chen.
Looking at the innocent look in Gu Chen’s eyes and the panic in letting go of his hand, Shen Xi rolled to the side and sat up..
