Chapter 550 - Banquet (5)

Then without even caring about Lei Feng, Lin Fan turned to Murong Yue and mimicked Lei Feng as he asked, "Miss Murong, may I have this dance?"

Murong Yue was taken aback by Lin Fan.

She had used Lin Fan as a shield against Lei Feng, but all she expected was just him giving a perfunctory response and not doing something like this.

With how handsome Lin Fan was, Murong Yue couldn't help revealing a faint blush when she saw him acting like this. She couldn't help turning aside while also sneaking a peek at Lin Fan's face which actually made the blush on her face even darker.

Naturally, none of this had escaped Lei Feng's eyes and the rage burned deep inside of him, but he still forced himself to smile. That smile on his face couldn't help twitching a few times as he forced his anger down.

Seeing that he was being ignored, he didn't force his way in because he knew that everyone was watching, but he didn't forget Lin Fan's face.

Shi Yan revealed a smile from the side when he saw this, but that smile also quickly disappeared.

Lin Fan had been peeking at Lei Feng from the corner of his eyes during this time and he had to admit that Lei Feng really was a good actor.

It was clear that he was seething with rage at this moment, but he was able to force himself to keep it down. Then there was earlier where he had deliberately drawn out his words to create more tension in the crowd, making sure that he had their full attention and that he was able to raise their enthusiasm.

If this Lei Feng was on earth, he would definitely be a talented host that could have won awards.

Murong Yue looked at Lin Fan's hand for a bit before suddenly raising a hand to take it.

When Lin Fan felt her hand holding his, he looked up at her with a smile and then led her to the dance floor like a gentleman.

The crowd that had been in front of them parted ways for them and they were the only two people who were on the dance floor.

Murong Yue revealed an awkward smile as they were walking as she said, "I'm not really good at dancing."

Lin Fan turned to her with a smile and said, "It's fine, just follow me lead."

Lin Fan had been the son of a rich family, so naturally he had been taught many things that he would need to socialize with people at his level. One of those things included ballroom dancing.

Putting one hand on her waist and putting her hand on his waist, he took her other hand before leading her along to the rhythm of the music.

Murong Yue could be considered to have two left feet since she wasn't the kind of girl who practiced this kind of stuff before, but Lin Fan was able to easily lead her in the dance.

As they danced around on the dance floor, Murong Yue couldn't help being swept up by the dance.

It was as if there were only the two of them in that entire banquet hall and all she could see was Lin Fan guiding her along in the dance.

The people who were watching couldn't help whispering among themselves when they saw this.

"Those two…they really do seem like a perfect couple don't they?

"They do! They do!"

"But have you ever heard of this Lin Fan before? Why haven't I heard of him?"

"I don't know either, but if you look carefully, those are three of the Five Flowers of Harmony City that also came with him. For him to have all these women following him…"

"Ai, it really all depends on the face, doesn't it?"

The whispers in the crowd were soft, but Lei Feng could hear them pounding on his ears, pounding on his heart.

Murong Yue was his woman, she had been his woman since they had first met and now there was someone who dared to touch her? How could his male pride let that go?

But even with all these whispers, Lei Feng forced himself to reveal a calm expression. However, under that calm expression, the twitching of his face became even more intense and there was a stuffed feeling in his heart. It was almost as if he was about to vomit blood out of anger.

Shi Yan standing behind him had also noticed this and had heard the whispers around, so he came forward to whisper something in Lei Feng's ear.

Lei Feng looked annoyed at first, but then his eyes lit up when he heard the rest of what Shi Yan said.

Once Shi Yan was finished, Lei Feng turned around so that no one could see his face and he revealed a cruel and twisted expression as he said, "Do it, I'll support you. I want him to suffer, you understand?"

Shi Yan's heart trembled the moment he saw this expression. This was the expression that had made him decide to follow Lei Feng, this was the expression that made him realize that Lei Feng was destined to take over this realm one day, so it was best for him if he followed him earlier.

Shi Yan would have given a bow if it wasn't for everyone watching, so he just gave a nod and said, "Yes, young master Lei, I will pass down your instructions."

Lei Feng gave a nod and then revealed a smile, but this time there was a cold chill in his eyes as he said, "Good."

Without even caring about Shi Yan's response, Lei Feng turned and revealed the same smile that he had before, the one that looked friendly and calm.

Shi Yan took a few deep breaths to calm himself before also revealing a smile and secretly laughing deep down.

He knew what Lei Feng's plan for Lin Fan was and he would have almost felt sorry for him if it wasn't for his own hatred for Lin Fan. However, since he knew that Lei Feng was going to make a move now, he was certain that Lin Fan would die which made him much more confident.

Shi Yan turned and walked off the stage, but no one cared about this since the only one that people cared about was Lei Feng. As long as Lei Feng was still on stage, Shi Yan was free to do whatever he wanted to do.

Well, it wasn't that no one had noticed Shi Yan walking off.

Lin Fan had been dancing, but he was perfectly comfortable with leading since it was something that he had trained in before and his motor skills were better here because of his cultivation, so he was able to separate his attention to look around the room.

He had seen the scene between Shi Yan and Lei Feng and knew that something was up, but there wasn't anything that he could do now. He knew that their plan would come after the banquet.

Still, this was all a part of his plan.

The reason why he had even chosen to go all out and dance with Murong Yue was because he knew that there would be no chance of reconciliation with Lei Feng, or more precisely, Shi Yan. He knew that since they had chosen their sides, they would have to fight to the end, so the best thing he could do now was infuriate Lei Feng as much as he could.

If he filled Lei Feng with rage, he wouldn't be able to think clearly and would make more mistakes, which would help him.

What was the best way of filling him with rage?

It was to hit him where it hurt the most.

Which was to steal his girl…Or rather pretending to do so.

He made sure to dance as dazzling as possible to sting his eyes even more.

He also had to admit that Murong Yue really was good at playing along, she acted just like she was supposed to.

What he didn't know was that as they danced along, Murong Yue wasn't just playing along, but she really felt like a princess.

This was something that she had dreamed about since she was young, but she had been raised to be rough and tough by her family, so she never had the chance to experience this.

However, even with that rough and tough exterior, there was still that soft girl that was beneath it.

When they finished their dance, there was a round of applause that sounded around them. Both Lin Fan and Murong Yue gave a bow to the crowd before returning to their seats.

Lei Feng also took this time to raise the microphone again to say with a smile, "What an amazing display. Let's give it up again to these two for being the first ones to start the dance. I now invite everyone to come onto the dance floor to dance."

After he said this, he gave the microphone to the servant waiting on the side and he walked off into the back of the stage.

Before he left, he took one last look at Lin Fan and Murong Yue who were sitting there talking to each other. There was also a cold glint that appeared in his eyes.

Lin Fan could sense the chill that came from that direction, but he chose to ignore it.

Instead, he turned to the girls and said, "I think it's about time we get going, don't you all think so?"
