The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 519: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (58)

The melodious and graceful melody flows like a gurgling stream. Su Xiangran and Song Chengjing are like two dancing butterflies, dancing gracefully on the dance floor.

At this moment, the buttons of Su Xiangran's outer coat have been gently unbuttoned, and the slightly opened collar reveals the elegant pink and white cheongsam underneath, which looks like peach blossoms blooming in spring, delicate and gorgeous.

Before stepping onto the dance floor, Song Chengjing had already taken off his well-tailored suit jacket and handed it to Su Yanqing on the sidelines.

Shirts of the same color, light dance steps, and tacit cooperation between the two. Even though they were slightly short in height, they still attracted the admiring eyes of everyone around them.

Cao Ce originally focused all his attention on his son Cao Shixun, but when he accidentally caught a glimpse of his nieces Su Xiangran and Song Chengjing, he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

As a man who had seen countless people and was well versed in the ways of the world, Cao Ce immediately noticed keenly that although the two men were nearly ten years apart in age, they looked particularly well-matched when standing together, like a perfect couple made in heaven.

At this time, Cao Ce's opinion of Song Chengjing changed: this young master of the Song family was undoubtedly excellent, and a marriage with their family would be extremely beneficial, but he was unhappy when he thought that Su Xiangran might get married in a few years.

On the other side, Cao Shixun, who was also feeling uncomfortable, was dancing with Xie Wanru. It can't be said that they cooperated very well, but the movements were coordinated. However, after a long time, they gradually became tacitly in sync.

After all, Cao Shixun graduated from a military academy, so his ability to control his limbs is quite good.

In addition, Xie Wanru was a person who often appeared at various dance parties, so when the two of them coordinated to perform a series of highly spectacular dance moves, they immediately won the praise of many guests in the audience.

It's just that the two of them relied purely on their superb dancing skills. In comparison, there was an indescribable unique atmosphere between Su Xiangran and her original dance partner.

This feeling made Cao Shixun extremely angry, especially the feeling of powerlessness as if no one could intervene, which made him even more furious.

His mind raced as he saw Cao Shixun and Xie Wanru continuing to dance while slowly approaching Su Xiangran and the others.

Just when the melody of the dance music took a turn, Cao Shixun suddenly shook his wrist skillfully, and Xie Wanru couldn't help but pounce towards Song Chengjing.

Then, he bumped into Song Chengjing seemingly accidentally, and the other three people who were caught off guard were forced to change their dance partners.

Cao Shixun successfully pulled Su Xiangran into his arms. Although his facial expression did not change at all, he was obviously happy in his heart.

Because the technical dance moves just now were all performed by Xie Wanru, but now Cao Shixun actually performed several difficult sliding steps in a row, bringing Su Xiangran out of the range where she could exchange dance partners.

His movements were so fast that many people around him didn't see clearly. In just a blink of an eye, the two couples changed dance partners and even performed several fancy moves.

"Good!" Some people cheered without knowing why.

"Cousin! What are you doing?" Su Xiangran looked as if she had suddenly realized something. "Are you trying to ask what I think of my future cousin-in-law?"

These murderous words, coupled with Su Xiangran's "innocent and simple" expression, were a great blow to Cao Shixun.

He used his utmost patience to keep his expression unchanged, but the words he spoke out were already a little gnashing of teeth: "Xiao Ran, how could you think she is not your future cousin-in-law!"

"That's what everyone says!" Su Xiangran chuckled, "And when my uncle came to deliver the dance invitation, he said that today is your blind date dance!"

"A good man has ambitions. I will build my career first and then start a family." Cao Shixun's voice was full of determination. It seemed that he was talking to Su Xiangran, but more like to himself.

"I can't do anything about it!" Su Xiangran originally wanted to spread her hands, but now her hands were held by Cao Shixun, so she could only shrug to show that she was powerless.

When Cao Shixun wanted to say something, the music stopped.

Song Chengjing and Xie Wanru walked over together.

The two people who were forced to change dance partners looked unhappy.

"Brother Jing." Su Xiangran withdrew from Cao Shixun's arms almost at the moment the dance ended, and walked towards Song Chengjing with lotus steps, "Dancing is so difficult!"

It sounded like a complaint, but it was said in a coquettish tone. The unique gentle words soothed Song Chengjing's somewhat unhappy mood.

"Then let's not dance." Song Chengjing took Su Xiangran's hand, "Let's go eat something with Brother Jing!"

"Okay!" Su Xiangran replied, and then looked at Xie Wanru who had a bad expression, and her soft voice sounded again, "You are my future cousin-in-law! Sister Xie, you are so beautiful."

The phrase "future cousin-in-law" dispelled Xie Wanru's doubts. It turned out that this girl was a relative of the Cao family! After knowing this, she still laughed at herself in her heart. How could she be hostile to such a little girl?

She hasn't even married yet! She's already so nervous! This is totally wrong!
