Chapter 267: In Her Eyes, There Was Only Him
Elder Bai understood what she meant and his face darkened.
“Xinxin, what did you say to Yichen’s wife?! What’s this about pole dancing? Be clear about it!”
Although Elder Bai was usually amiable and friendly, when he put on a stern face, there was no one in the family who was not afraid of him.
Bai Xinxin’s heart trembled and she revealed an aggrieved expression, “Grandpa, I… I’m sorry, I misspoke. Previously, I heard that Sister-In-Law knows pole dancing, but I didn’t know what it was, so I just blurted it out. Just now, someone told me that that kind of dance isn’t elegant, I. . . I really didn’t know!”
Those who heard her and Luo Chenxi’s argument couldn’t help but glance through the edge of their eyes.
‘Isn’t she lying through her teeth?’
However, Bai Xinxin was very committed to her act. She even forced out tears and looked extremely guilty.
However, Elder Bai still kept a straight face.
Tan Yueru couldn’t stand it anymore and advised, “Old Master, Xinxin has always been careful and kind, so she couldn’t have done it on purpose. You mustn’t blame her completely for misspeaking!”
Elder Bai snorted, “Even if she didn’t mean to do it, but as the Young Miss of the Bai Family, it’s too immature of her to say something without clarifying the matter! Hurry up and apologize to Yichen’s wife!”
Bai Xinxin’s face was pale and she almost gritted her teeth!
She had wanted to humiliate Luo Chenxi at the banquet on that day.
However, she didn’t expect that not only did she fail to achieve her goal, but she also had to apologize to that woman!
No matter how she thought about it, she was unwilling to accept it. However, she didn’t dare to disobey Elder Bai’s orders.
“Hurry up!”
Elder Bai poked the ground with his walking stick and urged her sternly.
Bai Xinxin reluctantly walked towards Luo Chenxi.
“Sis… Sister-in-law… I… I’m sorry…” Her voice was even softer than a mosquito flying by.
Luo Chenxi widened her eyes and raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Miss Bai, are you apologizing to me?”
Bai Xinxin was both embarrassed and angry.
All the guests were looking at the two of them, causing her to wish that she could just find a hole to hide in!
Then, she raised her voice a little.
“Yes, I… I’m sorry, Sister-In-Law. I didn’t clarify the situation before I spoke just now, I’m terribly sorry for having said the wrong thing. Please forgive me.”
This time, she said it much more clearly.
When the guests heard it, they started whispering.
Luo Chenxi smiled, she said, “You’re too kind, I know it must’ve been an unintentional mistake. After all, what kind of person would keep on talking about pole dancing? Also, you’re such a polite person to even come and especially apologize to me. As expected of the Young Miss of the Bai Family.”
Those words clearly meant that the Bai Family’s upbringing was splendid.
But, how could Bai Xinxin not hear the sarcasm in it.
She was so angry that her face turned pale and she almost fainted.
Luo Chenxi didn’t continue speaking after that.
‘Elder Bai insisted on wanting Bai Xinxin to apologize to me because he is giving me face.
‘If I were to dwell on the matter, I might offend him in the end and I would end up in a loss instead.’
Thus, she put away her fan, lifted the hem of her dress and walked towards Mu Yichen.
From the moment Luo Chenxi started dancing, Mu Yichen’s gaze never left her.
At that moment, the dazzling goddess who had received countless adoration left her stage and walked towards him step by step.
There was a smile in her clear eyes, just like when she was dancing.
However, awhile ago, she was smiling at everyone.
Now, in her eyes, there was only him.
Mu Yichen’s heart suddenly surged with excitement. He took a step forward, grabbed Luo Chenxi’s wrist and pulled her into his embrace.
