Drunk and asleep in your arms
The daytime bestows human rationality, advancing steadily through the thorns of social pressure, interpersonal relationships, and career competition. The night, on the other hand, softens human sensibility, and even a casual piano melody can lead to reminiscence, or perhaps inspire tolerance for people who should be guarded against.
For Su Ye, it's strange that tonight's night sky is so beautiful, the indoor lighting is too dim, and the music is too elegant. She suddenly feels that matching her dance steps with Yan Baiyan's isn't so bad after all; being close to him at zero distance doesn't feel terrible either.
As for Yan Baiyan, it's strange that the woman in his arms is so beautiful, regardless of how dazzling the night sky outside is or how elegant the surroundings are. He never hesitates to acknowledge her beauty. At this moment, he gently holds her in his hands, just like holding a delicate rose, admiring its beauty while also mindful of the sharp thorns that can prick his skin at any time. The more beautiful something is, the more delightful it is to behold, but also the riskier it becomes.
In the latter half of the music, other staff members also joined in dancing, and without the tense atmosphere of being watched by everyone, Sora's dance steps became slightly more relaxed.
Perhaps it was because the two were too close, so close that the man's breath always seemed to pierce her spleen and lungs like a soul, and her brain began an unprecedented recollection. The distance between their bodies, almost touching yet not quite, made her think of that morning when she first met him, as her fingers touched the solid and smooth bones of the man.
That morning, even the air in the hotel was filled with a sense of ambiguity. She never wanted to recall that day's events too much, but tonight's atmosphere inadvertently led her into the depths of thought.
"What are you thinking about?" was the voice of Yan Bojian falling from above his head, with a hint of a smile.
The sun can enter the reason. Su Ye was secretly scolding this guy in the depths of her heart for being born with a good voice, especially on this night when the color was just right, and just this voice was enough to make people's hearts lose their defense and surrender. She should have been standing upright with pride in front of him, but when she raised her eyes and met his gaze, she could even hear the sound of her heart being lightly knocked against her mouth.
"I wonder, with the beautiful lights and intoxicating wine tonight, if my face also looks more radiant and captivating? It's not too difficult to exchange bold glances with him, as long as I remain vigilant and don't let myself get trapped in this calm sea."
Nian Baiyan elegantly raised his hand, and she followed suit, gently twirling in his arms. His smile seemed to take on the gentle warmth of the night sky as well. "You were beautiful from the start."
His words of praise seemed more powerful than others, at least making her eyelashes tremble slightly.
"Should I be grateful for your lavish praise?" As the music played on, she leaned back gently in his arms, her gaze meeting the man's square jaw and sensual Adam's apple.
For the soft fragrance in his arms, Yan Bo seemed unmoved, following the music with a moderate and distant attitude, and the answer that fell was also extremely standard. "For beautiful things, my praise has never been stingy, beauty is just beauty."
Su Ye lightly pursed her lips and, due to the dance steps getting closer to his chest, looked up with a small face, "So, who is more beautiful, me or Ye Yu?"
This time, Yan Bo didn't push her away, or maybe the last time wasn't pushing her away either, it was just because of the dance steps, his big hands followed the music and also held her in his arms, but also stuck to her waist in a regular and square manner, without crossing the boundary by half a step.
"Each has its own merits."
This answer was unsatisfactory to her, Qing Dai's face slightly furrowed, "You should know I don't like this answer."
"It's a fact." Yan Bojian's tone was light, seemingly indulgent of the childlike boldness she displayed in front of him.
Su Ye no longer looked into his eyes, and after a few more seconds of silence, she suddenly asked, "Do you love Ye Yu?"
This sentence is more direct and bold, not that she intentionally tried to probe, but indeed because she was too curious. She didn't know what kind of expression Ye Baiyan would have when deeply in love with someone, or whether he would be calm and composed when facing his loved one? Or gentle as water, loving and caring in every way? So, the woman who could win his favor and even make him think of marriage must be the one he deeply loves, right? But she just insisted on confirming it.
"What if I love and what if I don't?" Never thought Yan Bo Yuan would give such an answer.
Su Ye raised an eyebrow, "Nian Zong, you're avoiding my question."
"Love is a luxury for me," said Nian Boyan, looking down at her. "I'm grateful to have it, but I won't die without it."
His answer was ambiguous, as if he had accurately answered her question, yet also skillfully evaded it. Su Ye quietly gazed at his profile, and the next moment she too fell into confusion.
Nian Boyan is a man who has precise plans for his career and life, someone like him wouldn't be unaware of what he wants. He has a calm and introverted personality, but when it comes to doing things, he is thorough and ruthless, logically speaking, he shouldn't have wronged himself.
If deeply in love, why didn't he see her and Ye Yu together?
But if you don't love, why hold hands with Ye Yu and form a good marriage?
As she thought, her confusion gradually converged into a line, a sharp thread that lightly strangled the cerebral cortex, bringing up a suffocating pain. But pain can make one sober, at least in the next second, the question she asked was far more direct than the previous one. "So, can I understand it as, your marriage is just a stepping stone for you to achieve success?"
Words spoken are like water spilled, and since they can't be taken back, she waited to see the effect. Unexpectedly, Yan Bo Yi's expression remained calm after hearing her words, his eyes didn't even flicker, and his dance steps were still steady and unhurried, just like his usual demeanor in dealing with people.
At this moment, a song successfully spread to the end, when applause broke out, he only dropped one sentence, have fun.
Su Ye frowned, why did this music always end at the most critical moment?
Xu Tong took the phone and went forward, lowering his voice to say something to Nian Boyan. He then took over the call and walked away from the dance area, leaving Su Ye to watch his back get farther and farther away.
Lin Youyou held up the wine glass and walked forward, handing her a cup. Following her gaze, he looked past the door of the hall, which blocked out Yan Bo's tall figure. He turned back to look at her, slightly raising an eyebrow. "What were you talking about? It doesn't seem very pleasant?"
"I asked him if he loved his wife." Su Ye took over the wine glass, drank it in one gulp, and then raised her hand to order another cup.
Her words and the action of drinking together startled Lin You, who reached out to grab her arm, his tone rising in alarm, "Why did you ask him that question?"
"Don't worry, I'm not obsessed with him." Su Ye smiled lightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "I just suddenly became curious about his marital status."
"He married the eldest daughter of the Ye family, although it was not a big fanfare, but everyone in the company knew about it." Lin Youyou looked at her expression and felt a bit worried, hurriedly pulled her over, with a serious face, "Su Ye, you'd better not play with fire, Yan Baiyan is not someone to be trifled with."
Su Ye looked at Lin Youyou's eyes, and for a moment, she almost blurted out that the Ye family, including Ye Yu, didn't deserve to be happy. But she swallowed her words, as Lin Youyou was unaware of her true identity, and she wouldn't deign to associate with the Ye family anyway.
"Really made me think I'm playing games with you? Lin Niang, you're too sensitive."
"I was scared by what you just said, why bother with his marriage?" Lin Yao is a kind-hearted girl who can't bear to see her good friend make any mistakes in life. "Just remember, he's your boss, the relationship is that simple, do you remember? It seems like I'll have to keep an eye on you from now on so you don't go astray."
Su Ye couldn't help but laugh and cry, why did she look like someone who easily does wrong? First it was Nian Boyan who brought up this phrase as her brother-in-law, and then again it was Lin Yao.
"Alright, won't talk nonsense, will die? Let's drink, tonight no drunk no return."
"Oh no, again?" Lin Youyou wailed and was dragged into the wine district by Su Ye.
I am the dividing line Little Girl
Nian Baiyan returned to the banquet hall after finishing his business, but as soon as he pushed open the door, the scene inside made him pause for a moment. He quickly retreated back to the entrance and looked up at the name of the hall. Xu Tong, who was following behind him, didn't know what was going on and followed suit, taking a peek inside, his eyes suddenly widening in surprise.
Annual total...
Nian Baiyan made sure he hadn't entered the wrong hall and re-entered.
"Has it taken a long time for me to handle official business?" He looked at the scene in front of him, trying to keep his tone as calm as possible.
Xu Tong swallowed hard, "It's just been an hour."
Yes, just an hour ago, the originally elegant banquet hall became a chaotic dance of snakes. What surprised him even more was that at this moment, the music being played was like a curse, making people's heads ache. The live band who were originally playing the piano and violin were also standing innocently on the side.
Do not sigh, form is emptiness, emptiness is form
Colors change into emptiness, emptiness changes into colors.
Unwavering in this life, unchanged until the end of time
It's beautiful color, excellent color, natural color 17ik7.
Who can't love and cherish?
Sing out the song of cherished color, Modern Girl is me
Mò hū luō jiā, mò hū luō jiā, jiē dì mó cí
This music exudes a sense of exotic and mysterious charm, and even the crowd dancing along with it seems to be possessed by ghosts.
Nian Baiyan listened to the music and felt a sense of familiarity, but for a moment he couldn't recall what it was. His sharp eyes quickly scanned the crowd, soon locking onto the main character of this bewitching dance.
A woman with a red face, Su Ye, stood at the highest point, her soft body twisted into a snake-like shape as she swayed to the music. Her small face was flushed, and her eyes were dazed, it wasn't hard to tell that she had drunk quite a bit of wine. Dancing with her was Lin Yao, who wore a white long dress, their red and white colors complementing each other, their movements elegant and refined, both of them seemingly intoxicated.
The people around also drank a lot, all surrounded Su Ye and Lin Youyou, dancing wildly beside them.
The music is enchanting, and even the dancing women look like seductive demons.
At this scene, Yan Bo Yi truly understood the meaning of a sentence: A party without a leader is a carnival.
But in just an hour, everything here has changed beyond recognition.
"They dance really well." Xu Tong was also a young person, and looking at the scene in front of him felt even more lively. "Their figures are so soft, like two snakes."
It's like a snake, and Toshihiko Sano also acknowledges it, especially with Motomiya, her soft and supple body moving as if she were a fairy in the midst of flames.
Just as he was thinking, Su Ye rushed over to him, the softness of her lower abdomen under the transparent gauze was almost enough to squeeze out water, seeing him standing still there, she stretched out her fragrant arm and tightly wrapped it around his neck.
