Chapter 1442: In Tears
“Ah Ning, the Chairman keeps staring at you, he must be fascinated by you. The ball is about to begin, he will definitely invite you to dance!” Xiao Qiu said excitedly.
Would he?
Lu Ning’s heart was thumping wildly. It would be a lie to say that she was not looking forward to it.
At this time, the host went up to the stage, “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your attendance today. I hereby announce that the ball has officially begun. Let’s invite Mr. Yin to start the first dance. Which beautiful lady will he invite?”
The crowd below the stage grew restless.
Lu Ning raised her eyes to look at Yin Zhihan. He broke the eye contact and turned to Ann. Then, he extended his left hand to invite her to dance.
“Wow, ” the crowd cheered. “Mr. Yin has invited his girlfriend, Ann.”
“It’s not surprising, they are in a relationship!”
“I’m so envious. Ann is the little princess of the ball.”
Lu Ning’s face turned pale. She watched Ann shyly put her hand in Yin Zhihan’s. He then put his hand on her slender waist, and they began to dance.
Yin Zhihan was very charming when he danced. Every turn he made was perfectly executed. Ann was also a skillful dancer. They whirled around the dance floor amid warm applause from the attendees.
“Ah Ning, what’s going on? Why didn’t the Chairman invite you to dance?” Xiao Qiu frowned.
Lu Ning felt as if she was doused by a bucket of cold water. What was she doing? Was she truly expecting Yin Zhihan to invite her to dance?
Yin Zhihan was dating Ann now. Why would he invite her to dance?
It was ridiculous!
Lu Ning admonished herself mentally, “Wake up, Lu Ning. When did you become like this? How can you covet a married man?”
Yin Zhihan was obviously a playboy. On one hand, he was dating Ann, and on the other, he was flirting with her. He even kissed her.
And she actually fell for his tricks!
“Xiao Qiu, Don’t spout nonsense about him and me in the future. We just have a working relationship – he’s my superior, I’m his subordinate. Who he invites to dance has nothing to do with me!” With that, Lu Ning walked away.
She walked over to the table and picked up a glass of red wine, and downed it in one gulp.
Xiao Qiu looked at Lu Ning and didn’t dare to say anything more.
Ten minutes later, Yin Zhihan and Ann ended the first dance perfectly.
Amidst the crowd’s exclamations, the host brought over the Guardian Star, and Yin Zhihan put it around Ann’s neck.
Lu Ning gulped down another glass of red wine.
At this moment, men started to walk over to her one after another and tried to invite her to dance. “Hey beautiful, can I invite you to dance?”
“No, I need to go the bathroom. Excuse me,” she declined them all.
Then she left the dance floor and entered the bathroom.
..
Standing in front of the washstand, Lu Ning splashed cold water on her burning face. Oh no, she might be a little drunk again.
She had drunk a few glasses of red wine in a row just now, and she was feeling the effects now, she simply could not hold her liquor at all.
When she was 17 years old, she was dragged into a bar by Linger and got drunk. In the end, Yin Zhihan brought her back to his apartment and it seemed something shameful had happened. But until now, she still did not know what transpired between them.
That was the start of their ambiguous relationship.
Lu Ning felt very sad and sorry for herself. Out of nowhere, she felt moisture on her face. Then she realized she was crying.
