He had wandered around the edge of the law all year long and was afraid. He had long since disappeared from my mind.
Moreover, the security in the country was many times better than in Europe.
However, other than that man. The moment he saw him, his heart would still tremble with fear.
Occasionally, a drunk man would appear on the street. He was on the verge of collapse and was unconscious.
I quickly walked to the convenience store. I picked up a box of familiar candy, but my eyes turned to the newspaper today.
"Today Shen Family will hold a grand masquerade party. Eldest Young Master Shen Family will host it." I picked up the newspaper and the photos on it hurt my eyes.
The man I feared the most in my life.
"Miss?" A cashier called out to me.
"Here's the money." I took out my money and placed it on the glass. I walked away without looking behind me. "Miss, I'm looking for your money ……"
I walked casually on the street. I couldn't wait to eat every word in the newspaper, afraid that I would miss any details. "According to my guess, Shen Family held this dance for marriage..." The newspaper's guess fell into my eyes.
The corner of my mouth curled into a bitter smile. I had already been chased out of the door, so why would I care about this?
I sat on the bench dejectedly. I casually threw the newspaper away and didn't want to go pick it up.
Wait, I seemed to have remembered something important.
Since it was Shen Family dance, she and Ruixuan would definitely attend.
Then...
As I thought about it, I hurriedly went to pick up the newspaper on the ground and searched carefully to see if there was time or place.
Finally, when Yi Xing couldn't see it, he discovered what I was looking for.
It wasn't too late, so the ball did n' t even begin.
However, based on my understanding, how could Shen Family enter the event without an invitation letter?
I thought about it and peeled a piece of candy, but I wasn't in a in a hurry to eat it. Suddenly, I thought of someone who might be able to help me get the invitation.
He quickly walked back to the newsstand. I made a call to that person.
"Hey, Aunt Lan, can you get me an invitation to the Shen Family dance?"
Although I didn't know if she would help me or who the mastermind behind her was, I really wanted to take a look at Ruixuan, even if I took a glance from afar.
Now, he could only fight.
"I've already prepared it for you. Now, if you take a few steps forward, there will be a black car. They will help you arrange everything." After she finished speaking, she hung up.
Su Lan words made me feel a little confused. Why did she expect me to call him? Why would he help me? With suspicion, I took a few steps forward and saw a black Porsche parked there as if waiting for someone.
If that was the case, the person behind Su Lan would definitely be quite influential.
As I thought about it, I walked to the car.
Then, someone came down and respectfully opened the door.
He sat up in disbelief and the car sped along the road as if it was going somewhere.
"Where are we going?" I sat in the back seat and looked at the person driving in confusion.
"Of course it's where Miss wants to go." That person said without any tone.
After staying in Europe for seven years, he had barely heard of Chinese. Now that he had returned home, he felt that Chinese was so friendly.
After wandering for so long, this was my home.
The car suddenly stopped and interrupted my thoughts, but my body leaned forward due to inertia.
"Miss, we're here." As he spoke, he led the way.
This place seemed to be a*****e. Although it was simple, it still had a slightly unremarkable luxury. With sharp eyes, I saw a lot of expensive things here, but they were naked in the hall.
It looked like this place was a custom-made place.
The men and women who came and went were all dressed in clothes that were incompatible with me. They looked decent and luxurious. And I was like a Clown shuttling among them.
However, there was nothing to be ashamed of.
These were nothing to me.
Following the man calmly, I looked straight ahead and ignored the unfriendly gazes.
He turned around to a small room and opened the door. "Please come in, Miss."
She dragged her slippers in and a woman with silver hair sat there. The three-dimensional seven officials were extremely exquisite. She seemed to be waiting for me to arrive.
"Change." She pointed at the dress on the table and looked at me.
When I saw this dress, I finally understood why I came here.
It was impossible to go to the dance party in pajamas and slippers. However, I couldn't help but admire Su Lan she had even considered this.
Worriedly putting on his gown, he found that it fit perfectly, as if it was tailored for me.
In the fitting room, I stared blankly at myself.
The sapphire blue fishtail dress made my skin pale, and the same color of high heels made my ankles slim.
For the first time in seven years, I looked at myself in the mirror. I naturally knew that I was born beautiful, but I had to thank Shen Family woman for giving me a nice coat.
Her features were inherited from her.
I brushed my face and wished I could tear it apart, because it was just like her.
She gently opened the door and the woman's eyes lit up. She circled around me and praised," Looks like this dress really suits you."
As she spoke, she took out a pink paper.
"The dance is about to begin in half an hour. Good luck." She pushed me out.
I was stunned and found the black Porsche parked downstairs. It seemed like it was waiting for me.
Looking at the flying shuttle building outside the window, I slowly opened the invitation letter, unable to hide the excitement in my heart. It seemed that I could see Ruixuan.
"Miss, we're here."
I looked up at the Shen Family manor. It was still as luxurious as before.
The moment his hand was about to open the door, he was stopped. "Miss, you forgot to take something."
As he spoke, he handed over a mask of exquisite mermaid. It seemed that this was prepared for me in advance.
"Thank you." I nodded.
###Chapter5
One foot stepped into the door of the Shen Family, and the breeze gently blew up my hair.
The floor was still the same as before. The old man liked fragrant yellow sandalwood, so most of the furniture in the house was made of precious wood. Even the floor was no exception.
He raised his wrist slightly. It was 7:78 a.m. It seemed like it wasn't too late. It was ten minutes before the ball started.
After a moment of hesitation, I decided to go all out. After all, with a mask on, no one could recognize me. I just went to take a look and see if Ruixuan was okay.
For some reason, my heart pounded.
Walking up the stairs on the second floor, I glanced back and was sure that no one was following me. Only then did I let out a sigh of relief.
Just as he was relaxed, he didn't pay attention to whether or not there was anyone on the stairs. Instead, he put it into the person's chest.
It was that man, the man I never wanted to see in my life.
Shen Jinghao.
Wasn't he supposed to be in the room at this time? Why would he come down early?
"Are you done lying down?" "Is that enough for me to go over?" He looked at me coldly, a trace of disgust flashing through his eyes.
I hurriedly nodded and turned to leave, praying that he did not recognize me.
There was a trace of luck in my heart. After all, I was wearing a mask.
"Wait."
He, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around.
"What are you doing on the second floor?" His eyes were deep, as if as long as he stared at his eyes, they would fall into it.
I deliberately didn't look at him, but I did n' t dare to open my mouth because I was afraid that he would recognize me as soon as I spoke.
"Huh?" He slowly approached me like a wolf.
"Let's invite Mr. Shen Family Shen Jinghao to speak for us." The host on stage looked around as if he was looking for him.
He glanced at me and walked to the host.
However, my heart suddenly tightened and my breathing became difficult. That gaze was exactly the same as the last one he had left that night.
I hurried down the stairs in a panic, trying to escape from Shen Family, but God had to joke with me.
Two men in black stood at the door, blocking my thoughts.
"Mr. Shen has an order. You must dance with him before you can leave."
Hearing this, my eyes widened, not daring to guess what Shen Jinghao was thinking.
However, I knew that Shen Family had decided that he couldn't stay any longer. Otherwise, if he recognized him, he would die.
Quietly in the corner, I carefully observed the scene.
The dazzling lights flickered. I sized up everyone present, but I didn't find Ruixuan shadow. Was he on the second floor?
Treading to the second floor, he was stopped by a man. He was wearing a silver mask and his figure was similar to Shen Jinghao. "It's not too late to dance."
With the familiar voice and the same tone, my heart was startled and my eyes widened. How did he recognize me?
At that moment, the man's hand had already wrapped itself around my waist. His face was pressed against my ear and he hugged me tightly.
The music slowly played and Shen Jinghao took his first dance step. His steps were very slow, as if he was not dancing.
"Song Rui'an, you' re back?" He leaned into my ear and the cold metal mask touched my ear.
He staggered back two steps, and his hand held me in time.
This was? Didn't he always hate me?
His footsteps gradually drew closer to the corner. In an instant, he pushed me to the corner.
"Because Shen Ruixuan came, right?"
At this moment, Shen Jinghao took off his mask and revealed a heroic face, making one's heart beat with excitement.
I lowered my eyes, not wanting to see this man.
He smiled evilly and approached my face. Because of the mask, his breath was blocked by the mask. "Even if you don't say it, I know."
"Ruixuan I'll leave after I get well. I wo n' t embarrass Shen Family." I lifted my skirt and wanted to leave this place, but I was stopped by a big hand.
He burst into laughter and his beautiful eyes relaxed. "Can you lose Shen Family face? Song Rui'an You might not think too highly of yourself."
I was slightly taken aback. That's right. I was able to chase me away seven years ago, but now I can. Besides, how could a Shen Family family be humiliated by me? I'm not a Shen Family person. My lips curled into a self-deprecating smile.
"I can let you see your cousin and your aunt, but I have to agree to a request." He forcefully removed my mask, revealing my face without Fen Dai.
His arm pressed against the wall and wrapped around me.
"What if I say no?" I felt uncomfortable trying to break free from his restraints.
