As Xia Xinyan walked among the crowd, she finally saw her son"s small figure.
However, when she saw her son whispering into a man"s ear, she trembled.
Carefully looking at the man"s face, Xia Xin felt a sense of d??j?? vu.
Where have I seen it before?
Xia Xinyan was a little worried, but her eyes were still staring in the direction of her son and the man in panic.
Suddenly, she saw the man smile and nod at her son.
Xia Xinyan suddenly thought of something. What did he mean by nodding his head?
Before Xia Xinyan could regain her composure, she saw the man stand up from the sofa and walk towards her with his long, slender legs.
Hold on ??
Son, what have you done?
Xia Xinyan wanted to flee, but she was worried that her son would run around randomly, so her legs wouldn"t be able to move.
Her beautiful watery eyes widened as she saw the graceful figure of a man approaching her.
"No, no, no!" Xia Xinyan screamed in her heart, she would never agree to dance with this man. That stinking brat, who let him pick this man?
He was simply messing around!
I must teach him a lesson later.
In the blink of an eye, the man walked in front of her. He wore a black, well-cut suit that wrapped around his well-built, slender body.
Xia Xinyan lowered her eyes and tried her best to explain. The man leaned over slightly, and his deep yet magnetic voice entered her ears, "Your son said he wants to dance with me!"
"Ahh ??" Xia Xinyan was stu
ed by the man"s provocative words. With a fierce glance, her tender lips brushed against the man"s handsome face, causing her to feel dizzy again.
Xia Xinyan hurriedly took a step back, keeping a safe distance from this man whose body was filled with a dangerous aura. She raised both of her hands, violently shaking them: "No no no, mister, you may have misunderstood, my son ?? ??"
"The little guy is very cute, I like him a lot. Since he made this request for you, I won"t reject it!" Ji Mucheng"s face turned white when he saw her frightened. He felt that she was interesting and wanted to take a step closer to tease her.
"I ??" Xia Xinyan only had enough time to say a single word before she felt her slender wrist being clasped by the man"s palm.
The man used quite a bit of strength to bring her towards the dance floor.
"No, sir, listen to me. My son is talking nonsense!" Xia Xinyan was both embarra.s.sed and anxious. Her pretty face turned red, and she, who had always been calm, started to stammer incoherently.
"Mommy, don"t worry about dancing with uncle. He said he knows how to dance!" Xia Yu Chen ran over and stood to the side cheering for Mommy.
Xia Xinyan was so angry that she wanted to punch his little b.u.t.t until it bloomed.
Xia Yu Chen met Mommy"s angry eyes, her small body shook a little, Mommy"s eyes are really scary. What had he done wrong?
He said he wanted to find his most handsome uncle to dance with her. He had already found it.
Did she despise this uncle for not being handsome enough? Not worthy of her?
The little guy rested his chin on his hand and decided that he had to find an even more handsome uncle to dance with.
There was no turning back for Xia Xin. She was dragged along by Ji Mucheng to the center of the dance floor, with one of his large hands resting on her slender waist.
"What is it? You don"t know how to jump? " The man was a head taller than her, so when he spoke to her, he needed to possess her body.
"Yeah, I don"t know how to jump. Let"s not jump!" Xia Xin wanted to make use of this opportunity to leave.
"I"ll teach you!" He didn"t expect that even if she replied like this, the man wouldn"t let her go.
Xia Xinyan"s mind once again went blank as she felt the man grab her hand, forcefully placing it on his thick shoulder.
At this moment, Xia Xinyan felt like an arrow on a bow, she had no choice but to jump in frustration.
While Xia Xinyan was hesitating on whether to jump in or not, she was completely unaware that all the women beside her were staring at her.
The voices around them seemed to have frozen, because all the women stared in disbelief at the woman in the middle of the dance floor, who was being held and dancing by Ji Mucheng.
Didn"t they say that the young master isn"t close to women?
Why was he still willing to dance with a woman in his arms?
Disbelief, shock, envy, and resentment filled the entire banquet. Even the women"s eyes were turning red.
Xia Xinyan, who had suddenly been turned into the center of the storm, was completely oblivious to it.
Xia Shu Ran and his wife were also standing to the side, watching with astonished expressions on their faces.
They all knew how valuable the ident.i.ty of Ji Mu City was, and his name meant nothing but power.
But now, Xia Xinxin had been invited by him to dance. Could it be that Xia Xinyi had a high possibility of climbing up to him?
Thinking of this, Xia Shu Ran was extremely unhappy. She felt that marrying He Jia Xuan was already a blissful affair. If Xia Xin ever thought of becoming a woman from Ji Mu City, she would be so jealous that her eyes would turn red.
Compared to Xia Shuyan"s jealousy, He Jiaxuan"s feelings were even more complicated.
Although he was the one who voluntarily gave up on Xia Xinyi that year, men were carnivores. Just now, he saw with his own eyes the transformation of Xia Xinyan from an ugly duckling to a charming white swan. It was impossible for him to not have any distracting thoughts.
Hence, when he saw the beautiful Xia Xinyan dancing in Ji Mucheng"s arms, jealousy arose in his heart.
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to apologize and admit his mistake to Xia Xin, and see if his old relations.h.i.+p could reignite again.
After all, a woman as beautiful as she was was worth every man"s attention.
However, according to the intuition of a man, He Jiaxuan was certain that Ji Mucheng didn"t like Xia Xinyan. Perhaps he just wanted to play with her.
If a man truly loved a woman, his eyes definitely wouldn"t be this kind of predatory gaze.
It seemed like he had to find a time to convince Xia Xinyan not to be toyed with by Ji Mu City without knowing it.
Xia Xin didn"t know he had become the female lead of the banquet.
She only felt that her entire body was stiff, and her steps were u
atural. She breathed in the sweet, cold, and sweet scent of a man, and mixed in with his hormonal aura. Her brain felt like it was going to go blank, unable to care about anything else.
Xia Xinyan could only take the time to glance in the direction where her son was standing. She saw that the little guy had crossed his arms in front of his chest, and was enjoying the show.
Xia Xin smiled wryly in her heart, this little guy really did put in a lot of effort.
What Ji Mu Cheng saw was the beautiful white collarbone of a woman, and beyond that, there was an abundance of energy. His breathing suddenly slowed as an unprecedented heat wave swept over his body, causing him to feel warm.
