Nangong Jue looked over, but his eyes narrowed slightly. “It’s actually him.”
Le Yao blinked. They really knew each other. “The person pursuing Ai Chen?”
Nangong Jue’s expression darkened. “Do you still remember Mei Yehan?”
“I remember. Isn’t he a rotten peach blossom of yours?” Le Yao glanced at him meaningfully.
Nangong Jue glanced at Le Yao.
Le Yao was slightly stunned because the other party’s gaze was a little serious. “What’s wrong?”
Nangong Jue pondered for a moment, as if he was considering whether to speak. At this moment, the blond man had already seen Nangong Jue and Le Yao. He actually pulled Ai Chen away from the dance floor and walked over. He opened his arms to Nangong Jue from afar. “Sir Jue, long time no see.” He spoke in English.
However, Nangong Jue stretched out a hand. “This is China, Duke Byron.” He spoke in Chinese.
Le Yao was surprised. The Duke was from the royal family of Country Y. His background was really not simple.
“Alright, alright.” Byron seemed to be very helpless as he reached out and shook Nangong Jue’S hand.
“I respect the etiquette of every country.” He had also spoke in Chinese, and he spoke it quite fluently.
“When did you arrive in China? Why didn’t you say h.e.l.lo? At least I can do my part as a host.” Nangong Jue pulled Le Yao to sit together and gestured for Byron and Ai Chen to sit too.
“I just got off the plane two hours ago.” Byron spread his hands at Nangong Jue and then made an inviting gesture at Ai Chen. He waited for Ai Chen to sit down before sitting down beside her. His actions were very gentlemanly.
Le Yao had specially studied some Western etiquette back then. After all, she met all kinds of people when she was working as a tour guide back then. She couldn’t be ill-mannered. She knew that it would take at least three generations to nurture a true gentleman. That was not the kind of action that everyone saw on the surface. Gentlemen were a kind of upbringing and quality in their bones.
And in her eyes, Byron was a true gentleman.
Ai Chen was actually a little embarra.s.sed. Logically speaking, she shouldn’t have stayed. However, she was indignant. She thought that since she was already sick and hospitalized, Sir Jue should care about her, right? Even a word from him would make her feel comfortable. However, she realized that she was wrong again. After such a long time, not to mention caring, even his gaze had never landed on her face. Her heart turned cold again.
“Then are you here on official business this time or…” Nangong Jue handed a gla.s.s of fruit juice to Le Yao and gestured to Byron with a gla.s.s of champagne.
“I had nothing to do.” Byron even made a walking gesture with his hand, looking a little funny.
Le Yao smiled.
“Beautiful lady, when you smile, it’s like hundreds of flowers blooming…”
“Thank you.” Le Yao nodded politely.
“This is my wife. According to Chinese etiquette, you have to call her Madam Jue.” Nangong Jue glared at Byron.
“Madam Jue, I’ve seen your video on the Internet. Your dancing is simply too beautiful…” Byron’s eyes revealed admiration. “I’ve also learned dancing since I was young. How about this? Can you allow me to invite you to dance?” As he spoke, he had already stood up and bent down to make an inviting gesture.
“I… don’t want to dance.” For some reason, although this looked good, Le Yao felt inexplicably vigilant..
