After Rui Chen Yang sat down, he didn't look at Zuo Zi Shi, but Zuo Zi Wu was feeling quite puzzled, so he would occasionally look in his direction, wanting to know why he suddenly didn't seem to recognize him.

Did he do something wrong to make him unhappy?

However, she did not get the chance to ask any questions. From the start of the banquet to the end of the meal, Rui Chen Yang did not even look at her side. He would occasionally clink cups with everyone, and would also meet her and Ling Yiheng. However, he politely smiled and didn't have any expression on his face.

However, the anniversary celebration after the end of the banquet did not end. A group of people went to the outdoor garden and began their after-dinner dancing.

Originally, Ling Yiheng didn't want to continue attending the ball anymore, but after being repeatedly invited by the Chen couple, he couldn't stand it any longer and took Zuo Zisheng to the garden with him.

The first dance started by Lady Chen and her wife. Zuo Zixian actually didn't have much interest in dancing, and today was a long shopping day, plus he still hadn't recovered from last night's torment by Ling Yiheng, he wanted to immediately return to the hotel to sleep, and then quickly fly back to France to settle the matters at the winery.

But even if she didn't want to dance, there were plenty of people who wanted to invite her.

Even though everyone saw that she was here with Ling Yiheng, some of them still ran over fearlessly to ask Zuo Zixian to dance. They were either fawning or being frivolous, since they were all upper-class princes.

After Zuo Ziwang rejected a few people, he felt that he could no longer not give face to the Chen couple. After all, these people were all guests invited by the Chen couple, and they were all well-known figures in the business and political world.

Just as she was about to dance with a man who had a rather polite attitude, she was pulled over by Ling Yiheng and walked directly to the dance floor where the crowd gathered.

This was different from the party in Boston, where the dance was a proper social dance, which made Zuo Zixian, who was used to European dance steps, a little uncomfortable for a moment. His steps were clumsy, accidentally stepping on several of Ling Yiheng's feet, receiving his astonishment and a few of his cold glances.

On the other hand, his dance moves were neither fast nor slow. No matter how he looked at it, they were all graceful with no blind spots. He looked calm and relaxed, as if he was at home.

"Why do you know everything? When did you learn this dance? " Zuo Zi Wu could not help but ask.

Someone like him, who had been strictly required from a young age, would naturally be very busy. She could tell that he would completely neglect his work, so how could he have the energy to learn to dance?

Hearing her question, the man suddenly moved closer to her face, and under Zuo Zixian's flustered and heartbroken gaze, he said faintly, "Some people are born with it, they don't need to learn."

This was simply a sentence that could anger a person to death, Zuo Zizhen would not believe it, he only glared at him unhappily and did not ask any further questions, but in his heart, he could not help but secretly curse him, "Arrogant."

After the song ended, the two people didn't jump anymore, mainly because Zuo Zixian really didn't want to jump with him anymore. Although he didn't seem to have much of a reaction to the fact that she stepped on him a dozen times, she couldn't bear it anymore. If she continued to embarrass herself like this, she wouldn't be able to face anyone anymore.

Thus, no matter what she said, she would not continue to dance.

Before he even had a drink, he had already taken one. However, just as he was about to raise his head to drink, he heard Ling Yiheng warn him in a low voice, "If you want to make a fool of yourself again tonight, you have to drink more."

Zuo Zixian's body stiffened, and immediately recalled the incident where he fell drunk in the restaurant. He immediately put down his wine cup and switched it to a glass of lemonade.

"How are you today? How do you feel about this place? " Ling Yiheng suddenly said. Zuo Zixian almost choked on the soda he just swallowed, and the gaze he used to look at him was a little confused.

Did he mean "here", this banquet site, or "Ming City"? Zuo Ziqian was a little confused, but then he seemed to have thought of something and saw that his eyes were filled with guilt and guilt.

Then, he apologized openly: "I'm sorry, I really didn't know you would call me so many times today. I just accidentally hit the mute button and my phone was always in my bag, so I didn't notice your call. If that makes you unhappy, I can only apologize. "

"I'm not unhappy. I'm worried."

When Zuo Ziwen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately he felt a surge of joy in his heart. Who would have thought that he would say such emotional words.

She was about to reply when she heard him say, "I'm worried that you'll destroy the bridge after crossing the river and forget about the deal after completing it. Wouldn't I be at a disadvantage then?"

His words were like the words of a pure merchant who was calculating the cost of a business.

Zuo Ziwen's eyes immediately dimmed, and his face momentarily lost all color, not knowing how to respond.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Ling Yi became even more furious. "You've been out for so long, yet you still haven't thought of giving me a call?"

"Call you? What position should I use to call you? Fiancée or fake fiancée? " Zuo Ziwang smirked, laughing at his unreasonable actions and at himself for thinking too much.

"So you simply went out with someone else and treated everything between you and me as the simplest of deals, didn't you?" he asked harshly, a glint of hostility in his eyes.

His words made Zuo Zixian tremble, he knew that he went out with Rui Chenyang?

But, what was a date?

Before Zuo Zixian could ask anything, Ling Yiheng walked over to the Chen couple, and soon, they went off to the side to talk, leaving her in the cold.

She did not follow him, but merely stood on the spot in confusion and anger. She did not know what Ling Yiheng's words meant.

He misunderstood her date with Rui Chenyang? However, didn't he clearly say that it was a trade between them before, so why did he care about her dating someone else?

Plus, she didn't date Rui Chenyang.

Did Ling Yiheng really care about her, or was he just concerned about the deal between them?

Zuo Zixian did not know, but he did not dare to easily guess.

"What, did you quarrel with him?" A warm male voice suddenly sounded from beside her.

Zuo Zixian turned around and saw Rui Chen Yang who had already walked to his side.

She lightly bit her lip, her eyebrows tightly knitted together. "What exactly happened to you tonight?"

However, Rui Chen Yang didn't immediately answer her question. He lowered his head and took a sip of the wine in his cup. His gaze shifted to Ling Yi Heng, who was conversing with the Chen couple not far away.

At this moment, Ling Yiheng was also looking in their direction.

When he saw Rui Chenyang standing beside Zuo Zixian, his eyebrows tightened and his face darkened.

However, Rui Chen Yang was still calm and composed. He smiled at Ling Yi Heng, raised his glass and greeted him.

Ling Yiheng gave him a meaningful look before turning his eyes away, no longer looking at him.

"What are you looking at?" Zuo Zixian couldn't help but follow his gaze, and coincidentally saw the side of Ling Yiheng's face, his every gesture giving off a natural noble aura.

She didn't understand what was going on tonight, but the relationship between Rui Chen Yang and Ling Yi Heng wasn't as tense as it was before. On the contrary, she felt that Rui Chen Yang seemed to be very willing to show good will to Ling Yi Heng.

She suddenly thought of the scene in her house in France where the two men had accidentally kissed during a quarrel over her.

He could not help but have some wild thoughts in his mind.

After all, homosexuality had prevailed in recent years. Many countries had already allowed homosexuals to get married. If one liked men, it wasn't a strange thing.

However, she could only think about this in her heart and would not reveal it.

"You want to know why I pretended not to know you tonight?" He asked with a smile, his delicate face warm and sun-like under the moonlight like a perfect prince coming out of a comic book.

Zuo Zizhi nodded his head very sincerely. This was a problem that she had been thinking about all night, and if he didn't say it, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Although she hadn't known Rui Chen Yang for long, she had already considered him a good friend due to the attack in France. Of course, she didn't want to lose such a good friend.

"The Chen couple are both well-known figures in the business world, and there are too many people here to talk about it. If people were to see that you and I are very close, I'm afraid that it would become a chatterbox. At that time, it will be bad for your reputation. " Rui Chen Yang explained lightly, a hint of worry flashing across his brows.

Hearing his words, Zuo Zizhen's heart warmed, he didn't expect him to be such a meticulous person. This was something she hadn't even thought about herself, yet he could think about it for her, and he had even done it so seriously.

"Thank you." She could not help but speak in a very sincere tone.

Actually, very few people knew that she was the daughter of Dix Wine House, but she had long heard of how powerful the domestic communication network was. If there really was a business scandal, it would not end well and would affect her reputation.

Unlike the Americans in Boston, who are a nosy bunch of Chinese, there will be no chance of gossip.

By doing so, Rui Chen Yang had helped her greatly.

He smiled and shook his head. Then, she took the initiative to hand the finished lemonade glass in her hand to the waiter who was walking towards her.

"Right, there's a pretty good garden here. Do you want to take a look?" he suggested.

Zuo Zixian, of course, also wanted to go, but looking at his high heels, the pain of his heels conquered her and she didn't want to go anywhere.

"Then let's find a place to sit for a while?" He saw through her thoughts and said.

After Zuo Zixian agreed, he quickly found a quiet corner and sat down. He just so happened to be able to see the entire scene on the dance floor without being disturbed by anyone.
