Chapter 1099 - Ball Meet
It was 5: 30 in the evening. Ouyang Mengyue dressed up and went downstairs. Ou Bu Ming was in the hall waiting for her to leave.
"Dad, this is a matter of the children, so please don"t go." Ouyang Burong had also just found out that his father was going to watch the show.
"I will not disturb them. I will just sit on the wall and watch."
Ouyang Burong really did not wish for his father to go, because if he lined up Ji Tianci, it would not be good if he could recognize him.
Initially, Ouyang Zongheng didn"t want to get involved with these matters, but he was more anxious than anyone else to get his granddaughter married off to another family. Tonight, he would go over and check on them as well.
Seeing that his advice to his father had no results, Ouyang Burong could only sigh, "Alright! But you have to come back soon. "
Ouyang Mengyue didn"t have any objections regarding whether grandfather was going or not. In any case, tonight"s banquet would not be as grandfather wished, and she would definitely find someone she liked there.
It was just to make grandpa happy.
Ouyang Burong sat on the copilot, while Ouyang Zongheng and Ouyang Mengyue sat on the back seat. Ouyang Burong called his own a.s.sistant, asking her to go watch the banquet together with him. When his father went over, he always needed people to help him look after the food.
Ouyang Burong looked at his daughter"s sullen expression. Even if he wanted to tell her that Ji Tianci would come tonight, in front of his father, he could only hide it from her.
The banquet was taking place in a banquet hall of a seven-star hotel. Today, an excellent team was invited, as tonight would be the young people"s world. Furthermore, as it was a masked ball, it gave people a feeling of G.o.dliness and antic.i.p.ation.
When the car arrived, Ouyang Burong said to his daughter who was sitting in the backseat, "Xiao Yue, before you enter, put on your mask, you will have fun tonight."
In Ouyang Mengyue"s hands was a light purple fox mask, which matched very well with her evening dress.
She put on the mask right away, and her whole face only revealed her red lips and chin. However, just looking at her elegant swan like jaw line, it was enough to determine that she was a beauty.
"Xiao Yue is so beautiful." Ouyang Shuo praised.
"Grandfather, I"ll help you enter." Ouyang Mengyue was worried about his body.
"No need, no need to worry about me, you can go in!" As for grandpa, I won"t disturb you. He"s just sitting in a private room on the second floor, waiting to see your performance. "
"I will take care of your grandfather, so you can go to the banquet to play!" Ouyang Burong said to her. He hoped that tonight he could give his daughter a pleasant surprise so that she would not feel so depressed.
He believed that Ji Tianci must also be prepared to come here, and would definitely not disappoint his daughter.
Ouyang Mengyue entered the hotel first, this time she entered using the Invitation Card, and Ouyang Mengyue was no exception, because this party was organized by a company, so the requirements for entry were much stricter.
Ouyang Burong carried Ouyang Zongheng up from another elevator and directly walked to the second floor of the banquet hall. Only to see that, at this moment, there were already many handsome men and beautiful women in the banquet hall, each of them wearing different masks, concealing their true selves, leaving everyone with a mysterious side to them. Usually, such a banquet would give people even more surprises, because they wouldn"t be so calm when facing each other, they would already have their expectations and curiosity piqued.
Before you see appearance, you can talk to each other and learn about talents or interests other than appearance.
At 6 o"clock sharp, a black limousine stopped at the entrance. The security guard stepped forward and pulled open the back seat, a s.h.i.+ny leather shoe stepped down, following the leg of the pants up, it was the tall and straight body of a man. Under his ink-black hair, a black exquisite mask covered the upper half of his face, under the nose of his nose, his s.e.xy thin lips were slightly pursed, and his dark blue s.h.i.+rt was a straight, dark black suit.
Even though the mask covered his face, everyone knew that he was definitely an extraordinary handsome man. He was the Ji Tianci who was invited, and under the mask, his eyes revealed a deep sense of longing. Step by step, he walked into the hall and handed over the Invitation Card.
In the elevator, he ran into a few girls. When those girls saw him, their eyes immediately lit up. It seemed like the quality of tonight"s handsome guys was really high!
One of them smiled and went up to greet him, "Hi, sir, are you alone tonight? We can get to know each other. "
"I"m sorry, I have an appointment." Ji Tianci rejected her with a low voice.
The girl could not help but feel a little disappointed. As she got out of the elevator, she saw a very stylish golden door. The two children opened the door to the two sides, and she saw the scene of the banquet inside.
Everyone came wearing masks according to the banquet"s criteria. Therefore, the entire banquet was filled with a mysterious aura. There were at least seventy to eighty people present, including the staff, so the banquet was very lively.
As Ji Tianci walked into the hall, his gaze was anxious to find the girl he wanted to see the most. Because he was wearing a mask, he needed to look for her seriously.
He knew that if he saw her, whether she was wearing a mask or not, he would recognize her immediately.
Even if it was the form of a ball, naturally, most of the night would be spent dancing and guests would be inviting each other. At this time, no one would be rejected because of their appearance, and everyone would have a chance to get a partner. The girls tonight were all dressed very beautifully. Ouyang Mengyue was standing in a corner, holding a cup of fruit juice in her hands. At this time, the music sounded and many men and women started to dance together, but she didn"t want to dance at all.
Ji Tianci"s gaze swept past all the women wearing masks. He knew that these people were not the girls he was looking for.
He had found her.
She stood under the light, looking lonely and lifeless. She was unlike the girl who was filled with the desire to hunt.
It was as if she wanted to escape from this place. Even though she was wearing a mask, he could still see that there was no light in her eyes. He could even see that she had lost weight from her clothing.
Ji Tianci"s heart was tightly clenched. How did she come these past few days? Why was she so unhappy?
At this moment, he wanted to immediately come to her side, wanted to take her away from here so that a smile would appear on her face.
The reason why Ouyang Mengyue was hiding in the corner, was because she wanted to avoid attention. She didn"t want other men to touch her, but at this moment, a man who had been observing her for a long time took the initiative to step forward, "Miss, may I ask if you can dance a dance with me?"
