CH 184

That evening at a saloon in Beijing.

Xia Weilan led Rui Li to the dressing room of the masquerade party on the third floor. All the clothes were of a complete set. There were costumes of princes, princesses and there’s even costumes of witches and knights. Everything that you could think of is there.

Rui Li reached out and took a dark color series queen’s costume, and headed straight to the dressing room.

By the time Rui Li reappeared, she realized that Xia Weilan was nowhere to be seen. However, a handsome man with blue eyes and short brown hair was present in the dressing room.

The man walked towards Rui Li and smiled. His blue eyes behind the mask are dazzling.

Rui Li’s eyes lit up and asked tentatively, “Weilan? Why are you dressed like this?”

Yes, the man in front of her is ineed Xia Weilan who had disgusted herself as a handsome young man. She even wore a cosmetic contact lens.

Xia Weilan’s proud expression went stiff, “How do you know it’s me?”

“Do I even need to take a guess? You disappeared out of thin air in the dressing room and a man suddenly appeared. Moreover, there was no man shopping around this area previously. Who else could it be, if it wasn’t you?” Rui Li explained.

Xia Weilan let out a sigh of relief. She thought that her disguise was a total failure. She made a few turns in front of Rui Li and blinked at her, “How do I look? I’m handsome, right?”

Rui Li gave her a look of approval. It wasn’t just because Xia Weilan’s aura had changed, her voice also became indistinguishable. There was a heroic aura all over her body.

“it’s really good.”, said Rui Li.

An idea crossed Rui Li’s mind and she put on her mask. She said in a gentle voice, “My lord, may I have a drink with you?”

“Hahaha” Both of them laughed out loud.

At this moment, Xia Weilan received a call from Mo Beichen telling her to go to the party with Rui Li first. He will be there shortly.

Xia Weilan put away her phone and a mischievous look flashed in her eyes as she lifted her eyebrows and smiled toward Rui Li.

The moment Xia Weilan and Rui Li appeared hand in hand, they attracted a lot of attention.

“Who is this? They look really good together.”

“I have no idea. I don’t think I’ve seen them around before. Since when did we have such outstanding individuals in Beijing?”

“Who knows. The young master of the Lin Family had invited all the noble young masters and young misses of Beijing. These two must be the young miss and young master who don’t usually appear in public?”

“That gentleman’s eyes were blue, is he a mixed blood?”

Everyone makes way for Xia Weilan and Rui Li.

They sat down at the seat in the center. They both took a glass of wine in their hands and looked around.

“Nan Fengyan is there.” Xia Weilan immediately saw Nan Fengyan dressed as a knight in purple among the crowd.

Nan Fengyan looked towards Xia Weilan and Rui Li.

Somehow, he looked around the surroundings in uncertainty before he walked toward Rui Li.

“Rui Li, is that you?” Although Rui Li was wearing a mask, she didn’t do anything to her hair, so Nan Fengyan immediately recognized her.

“Yeah.” Rui Li hid emotion under the mask, and responded softly, looking at Nan Fengyan calmly.

When Nan Fengyan heard her reply, he turned his gaze to the young man next to Rui Li. He was the one who invited Rui Li to the party, by right, she was her companion for the night. Who is this guy who snatched her from him?

Nan Fengyan said to Xia Weilan hostilely, “Who is this?”

Xia Weilan secretly let out a smile and decided to play along with Nan Fenyan. She said in a deep voice, “I’m a friend of my dearest Rui Li.”

Nan Fengyan instantly turned green, “What do you mean by your dearest Rui Li? She is not yours.”

“Oh,” Xia Weilan looked at Nan Fengyan in amusement, “But you are not her boyfriend. Why are you getting so worked out?”

Nan Fengyan’s expression became even more hideous. He glanced at Rui Li, but she didn’t even look at him.

“I have an unusual relationship with her.” Nan Fengyan said dully.

“Unusual? Can you prove it?” Xia Weilan felt Rui Li tugging at her sleeve.

Nan Fengyan noticed the intimate action between them and he felt like the sky had collapsed.

Where did this brat come from? Why is he so close with Rui Li?

Nan Fengyan acted ruthlessly and he immediately walked toward Rui Li, gazing at her with possessiveness in his eyes.

Rui Li didn’t expect Nan Fengyan to walk over suddenly. At this instant, she couldn’t read his mind. She then saw Nan Fengyan leaned toward her all of a sudden and held the back of her head as he planted a kiss on her lips.

“Wow!” The crowds immediately exclaimed, followed by loud applause.

This was Rui Li’s first kiss and her mind went blank. She felt her head had exploded like a firework.

She couldn’t hear what Nan Fengyan said to her. All she felt was Nan Fengyan dragging her away.

Xia Weilan watched as Nan Fengyan pulled Rui Li to a corner not far away. Rui Li didn’t struggle at all. Xia Weilan couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows. Today, Nan Fengyan finally gathered the courage. She thought that Nan Fengyan would keep beating around the bush.

In the corner, Nan Fengyan didn’t let go of Rui Li’s hand. He looked earnestly into her eyes and finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask, “Rui Li, will you be my girlfriend? I’ll take care of you in the future.”

Rui Li looked into his eyes that seemed to captivate her soul. She felt a little dizzy and her heart was beating fast.

She can’t think straight at all now, “I… I need to think about it.”

“Okay. When I give you three seconds to think about it, if you don’t reject me after three seconds, I take it as you accepted me.” Nan Fengyan seized the opportunity and didn’t wait for her to refuse.

He immediately counted, “1”

Rui Li looked at Nan Fengyan without moving.

Nan Fengyan was overjoyed and said,”2″

Rui Li opened her mouth in hesitation. Just when she was about to say something, Nan Fengyan quickly said, “3, you are my girlfriend.”

Rui Li frowned, she didn’t even have time to make up her mind.

When she saw Nan Fengyan’s eyes that were flashing with all sorts of expressions, her heart suddenly softened, and she couldn’t bring herself to reject him at all.

In fact, she had already let him in her heart without even realizing. She would be deceiving herself if she denied the fact.

“Yeah.” Rui Li nodded. At that instant, Nan Fengyan felt that his heart was finally at ease.

And just as Xia Weilan was watching Nan Fengyan and Rui Li, she felt her mobile phone vibrating.

“I’m here, are you inside?” Mo Beichen asked in a text message.

“I’m inside. But it depends on your capability if you can find me.” Xia Weilan quickly finished her words and stood up immediately from her seat in the centre of the hall. She walked to the seat at the end of the corner and sat down beside two pretty ladies, pretending that she came with them.
