Ran Xiangsi was about to refuse, but she only managed to say one word before a woman in a deep purple phoenix mask appeared beside her and interrupted.
"She already has a dance partner, Sir. How about we head to the dance floor together?"
The speaker was Lou Xinyu...
She had been searching for the man in the golden mask for a long time, and when she finally found him, she heard he was about to invite this vixen!
Enraged, she intercepted midway.
Brother Xining had told her that Brother William would be wearing a golden mask.
Plus, this man’s height and build matched Brother William’s, so it must be him!
She would never allow her Brother William to be taken away!
As for that country bumpkin Ran Xiangsi, it’s impossible for her to attend such a ball, right?
Lou Xinyu really didn’t recognize Ran Xiangsi...
She couldn’t match the beautiful woman in front of her with the country bumpkin Ran Xiangsi!
The man in the golden mask just glanced at Lou Xinyu indifferently but didn’t speak immediately.
All his attention was drawn to Ran Xiangsi, waiting for her to respond...
From a distance, Xing Chen noticed the situation with his sharp eyes. His long eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he walked over quickly.
Leaving Lou Xining stunned, he hurried to catch up, "Hey, hey, where are you going?"
After taking just a couple of steps, a woman in a snow-white dress walked up and stood before Lou Xining.
"Sir, your mask is so unique..."
Lou Xining paused, then chuckled, "Really? I think it’s pretty nice too..."
"May I have this dance?"
"Of course, miss, please..."
Just like that, Lou Xining completely forgot about following Xing Chen, quickly finding himself holding a soft and firm embrace.
She glanced at the woman who had interrupted midway, gave a cold and indifferent smile, then turned to refuse the man in the golden mask.
"Sorry, my dance partner is still waiting for me."
"I see..." The man in the golden mask looked somewhat disappointed but quickly recovered, turning to Lou Xinyu, "In that case, Miss, shall we?"
"Sure!" Lou Xinyu immediately beamed with joy, taking the man’s hand and walking towards the dance floor.
While leaving, she didn’t forget to give Ran Xiangsi a challenging look of triumph.
After the two had left, Ran Xiangsi muttered to herself, "Ridiculous... How many more brainless women like Lou Xinyu are there in the world..."
Just as she said that, a soft laugh came from beside her.
"Xiangsi, today... you look truly beautiful." Follow current novels on NovᴇlFɪre.nᴇt
As soon as the voice reached her ears, Ran Xiangsi froze.
Wasn’t she wearing a mask? How was she recognized so easily?
Instinctively looking back, she saw a man in a black knight mask in front of her.
The face... was indistinguishable, all shrouded in darkness.
The voice was also faint.
The music from the dance floor had started, and the loud music mixed with the person’s voice made it hard to hear clearly.
"How did you recognize me?" Ran Xiangsi cautiously asked while trying to figure out the person’s identity.
"No one but you could stun the entire crowd. I can’t think of anyone else." The man’s tone was somewhat frivolous, or rather restrained with excitement and thrill.
