Chapter 1958: Approaching

Sikong Shan could not help but feel proud.

Such a high and mighty man was her partner tonight.

Only she had the right to stand by his side.

Sikong Shan smirked arrogantly.

Ye Jie went forward and greeted the mayor and his family.

Bo Cixue leaned against the corner. She did not know if Ye Jie had seen her, but she did not turn back to look for him.

When she attended banquets in the capital, she would meet him occasionally.

At that time, her eyes would land on him uncontrollably.

He was cold and introverted. Many times, he listened to others and only expressed his views when necessary.

Compared to his peers, he was steady and cold. It was hard to imagine what it would be like for him to fall in love with a woman.

She had had bold fantasies in the past as well. Would she be able to tear a crack in his abstinent and cold face one day?

Bo Cixue thought of her ignorance in the past and smiled helplessly.

Young Master Lian and Yu Luoluo were the last to arrive.

The two of them noticed Bo Cixue the moment they entered.

“Oh my god. I spent several hours to dress up, but I’m still not as beautiful as her.” Yu Luoluo could not help but complain, “Bo Cixue is really my enemy.”

Young Master Lian was wearing a white suit and glanced at Bo Cixue lazily.

He looked away awkwardly. “What’s there to see? You’re just acting coquettishly.”

“Aren’t you being too harsh?” Yu Luoluo pouted. “But I like it.”

Young Master Lian wrapped his arm around Yu Luoluo’s waist. “I still like you like this. Your skin is healthy. It’s so fair that you’ll probably get bruises with just a pinch, just like a porcelain doll.”

Yu Luoluo couldn’t tell if Young Master Lian thought that Bo Cixue was good or bad, but she was still happy that Young Master Lian didn’t look at Bo Cixue.

…

Bo Cixue was taking a slice of cheesecake when a figure suddenly appeared beside her.

She thought he was hitting on her again. “I’m sorry, I’m Sikong Ling’s female companion tonight.”

The person beside her chuckled softly at her words.

That voice was like wine that had been brewing for many years—low and refreshing.

Bo Cixue looked up and was slightly stunned when she saw that the person beside her was Ye Jie, who was wearing a black suit and a white shirt.

He… had actually seen her?

And he had recognized her just by looking at her back?

Bo Cixue was glad that she had not eaten anything. If not, she would have choked when she saw him appearing in front of her.

“Is this delicious?”

He glanced at her and then at the cheesecake she had taken.

Bo Cixue lowered her long and thick eyelashes that were like butterfly wings. “I quite like it, but you don’t like sweets, so don’t eat it…”

Before she could finish, she realized that she had said something inappropriate and said hurriedly, “I’m sorry, I just said it casually. You can eat anything you want.”

Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue thoughtfully and said lightly, “Have you been well over the past three years?”

Bo Cixue replied with a smile as she ate the cake, “Yes, I’m free and happy. I made new friends, learned new things, and broadened my horizon.”

Ye Jie hummed.

Bo Cixue could not help muttering in her heart when she saw him humming again.

He was really a killer of all conversations!

“Crown Prince, this is…” Sikong Shan walked over and held Ye Jie’s arm.

Bo Cixue glanced at the two of them. Those who knew Ye Jie knew that he was a clean freak and did not like the approach of the opposite sex. The staff around him were basically all men and the number of men who could be close to him could be counted on one hand.

He did not reject Sikong Shan’s approach. Did it mean that Sikong Shan was different in his heart?

However, it had been three years since Ye Qingcheng’s incident.

He was a normal man and it was normal for other women to appear around him.

Bo Cixue thought that he would introduce her as “his sister” in front of others like usual, but she did not expect him to say, “She’s Cixue, General Bo’s daughter.”

Sikong Shan reached a hand out to Bo Cixue enthusiastically. “Hello, Miss Bo.”

Bo Cixue looked at Sikong Shan’s slightly exaggerated enthusiasm and shook her hand. “Hello.”

Bo Cixue did not want to be a third wheel. She said with a smile, “You two have a chat. I’m going to find Sikong Ling.”

Her slender figure slowly walked towards Sikong Ling.

Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue’s departing figure, his eyes cold.

Sikong Shan looked at Ye Jie and then glanced at Bo Cixue secretly, his hand clenching slightly.

…

Sikong Shan called the butler over.

She instructed softly, “If Sikong Ling invites Bo Cixue for the first dance later, ask the band to change the dance song.”

…

Sure enough, when it was time to dance, Sikong Ling invited Bo Cixue for the first dance.

Bo Cixue handed her slender hand to Sikong Ling.

The dance started and Sikong Ling’s expression changed when he heard the prelude.

It was not an elegant and slow waltz song, but a tango with a vivid rhythm.

Sikong Ling frowned. “I’ll get the band to change the song.”

Sikong Shan’s best friend stood up. “Young Master Sikong, I remember that you know how to dance tango. Could it be that your female companion doesn’t know how to dance?”

The socialites around laughed.

Most of the socialites present wanted to see Bo Cixue embarrass herself.

Sikong Shan put on an act and said, “I don’t know what happened with the band, but they actually got the wrong song. It’s probably because Ah Ling is good at tango. But if Miss Bo doesn’t know how, it’s better not to force it.”

Bo Cixue raised her hand and said calmly, “No need.”

She walked up to Sikong Ling, a smile in her doe eyes. “Let’s begin.”

Sikong Ling was smitten by Bo Cixue’s confident and charming gaze. His Adam’s apple bobbed and his slender hand held her slender waist.

The people in the banquet hall dispersed and surrounded them.

The two of them quickly steadied themselves, staring at each other as if everything around them had disappeared.

Sikong Ling held Bo Cixue in his arms and she looked up slightly. Her side profile was like a painting and there was a faint smile on her lips. She was pure and beautiful.

As the music gradually went on, the two of them started to dance under the gaze of countless people. They spun, looked at each other, hugged each other and acted as a couple who was deeply in love but had to be separated.

Their gazes and movements were very accurate, making people drunk on them.

As Bo Cixue spun around several times, her skirt hem flew like a butterfly.

Once she devoted herself to something, she would shine brightly.

It was her first time dancing with Sikong Ling and they cooperated well.

It made her blood boil with excitement. In the end, she lay on his long arm and the song reached a peak.

He leaned down and kissed her cheek.

Sikong Ling could not help but do this. When he regained his senses, he panicked and said softly to Bo Cixue, “I’m sorry.”

Bo Cixue was calm and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “What would you do if I say that I mind?”

“Apologize in public.”

Looking at his serious expression, Bo Cixue smiled like a blooming flower. “Take me to more fun places after this.”

“Okay!”

The two of them chatted as if no one was around. To everyone, they were a sweet couple.

Sikong Shan did not expect that instead of embarrassing Bo Cixue, everyone had become even more amazed! She felt even more upset.

She looked up at the noble man by the side. He was talking to someone with a calm expression and did not even glance at Bo Cixue.

It seemed like the rumors in the capital were true. The Crown Prince had no interest in Bo Cixue. No matter how beautiful she was, he did not have her in his eyes.

…

Bo Cixue talked to Sikong Ling for a while and asked him to entertain other guests.

She walked into the garden.

The banquet hall was too crowded and she wanted to find a quiet place to stay.

She walked in and suddenly saw Sikong Shan and the Sikong family’s butler from the corner of her eye. The two of them walked to a secluded place furtively and Bo Cixue could not help but follow them.

“Young Lady, if you do that, Master will be angry if he finds out. If anything goes wrong, the entire Sikong family will be implicated.”

“Butler, don’t you know that the Crown Prince has something on my father?”

“It’s hard to say if he has really something on your family. If he does, why hasn’t he done anything yet? Young Miss, you still have to be patient.”

“I can’t wait anymore. If he really has something on my father, wouldn’t our Sikong family be in more danger? I have to become his. Only then can I protect the Sikong family.”

“Also, when you do that later, help Sikong Ling too. If he gets together with Bo Cixue, the Bo family can speak up for the Sikong family too.”

Bo Cixue furrowed her eyebrows.

Not only did Sikong Shan set the Crown Prince up, but she had even set her up?

Although she did not dislike Sikong Ling and had plans to continue her relationship with him, she had never thought of giving herself to him like this.

She had been taught since young that she was conservative when it came to romantic relationships.

She would definitely not give her innocence away so easily.

With this idea in mind, even her good impression of Sikong Ling disappeared.

Bo Cixue turned to leave but accidentally stepped on several dry leaves.

“Who’s that?”

Bo Cixue’s expression darkened slightly.

Just then, a well-defined hand reached over and grabbed her slender wrist, pulling her away.

When Sikong Shan and the butler came out, Bo Cixue was nowhere to be seen.

Ye Jie brought Bo Cixue behind a bush. She was panting a little when she ran over and because of her nervousness, her heart was beating faster.

She looked up at the person who had pulled her away.

Seeing that noble and handsome face, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly.

One of her hands was still on his chest. They were very close and she could even smell the fresh and elegant scent on him.

Before she could say anything, she saw him take out a checkered handkerchief and wipe her face vigorously.

Bo Cixue widened her eyes. “What are you doing?”
