Chapter 1536
Although Xena graduated with a university degree, her own words confused
herself. Taking a subconscious glance at Waverly, she secretly tugged at her arm.
Wearing a faint smile, Waverly replied by saying, "Thank you. It's our pleasure. Shall I discuss the number with my friend?"
Speaking fluently, Waverly elegantly communicated with the man, who explained how she should pick the number. Xena was finally relieved.
After learning about the process, Waverly turned around and spoke with her voice lowered.
"It's nothing. Let's choose two numbers. Would you like to choose randomly, or would you like a special number? He will try his best to satisfy us. The word should start with an A!"
Patting his chest, Xena replied in a hushed voice, "I was scared to death. I thought there was something wrong with the invitation card!"
It was fine for her to embarrass herself, but she would feel sorry if Waverly was dragged into the issue. "I don't care. As long as it is not 4 but 2! 2 is equal to love
!"
Since she was there to attend the meeting, of course, she hoped to achieve love. Whether it was food or a prize, it was best if she could obtain desired results.
Along with her eyes lighting up, Waverly understood. She turned around and talked to the attendant with a smile before she gave Xena the number twenty-two card. She chose her own lucky number, which had the last number 3 and was near number 23.
Each of them received a delicate silver bracelet that had a pendant with a red and gold-rimmed porcelain mark attached to it, engraved with their respective numbers.noveldrama
"Thank you."
After thanking him, the two walked in. When they arrived at the hall, Waverly found that there were different pendants. Some were red, and some were green. There were differences between them. At first, Waverly did not pay much attention to it, but later, she learned that a large number of foreigners attended the party. Most of those who received the red pendants were, at least, verbally fluent in the language. Those who received green pendants were relatively weaker. One had to admit that the organizers were considerate. Of course, there were also many people who slipped into the fluent gang as Xena received the same red pendant as her. It was considered not to have embarrassed Xena.
When they entered the hall, they strolled around before heading for the food counter. As they had no special purpose in mind, they were relaxed. Some came over to flirt and drink wine. The atmosphere was warm with bursts of soft laughter from all corners of the room.
As the accosting man left, the two of them raised their glasses and clinked. They both took a sip and kept the business cards well. Xena spoke with a smile.
"Miss Waverly, I'm so happy today! With your help, not only did I widen my horizon, but I also gain a lot! I'm elated. If I return home with my hands full, I'll be satisfied for today! I remember that there were prizes. Why didn't I see any prizes?"
Nearing Waverly, she lowered her voice and spoke with a giggle.
"The men are pretty good-looking! Their personalities, however... are drastically different from each other. It is beyond my expectations! I can't imagine how they claimed to have received tertiary education. With vulgar words constantly blurting out of their mouth, I think they're not any better than me!"
Xena felt uncomfortable all over, hearing their rough words. She wore a miniskirt of a famous brand, but she could faintly sense the obvious disdain and contempt from the eyes of those men who sized them up as if they were inferior. The arrogance and almightiness in their tone were particularly displeasing to the ear! They were not in a company, so why would the men put on airs? Even if they were big bosses, who knew if the company was facing bankruptcy?
Xena had never had a great impression of men with lowly personalities, even if he was a handsome guy!
With a faint smile, Waverly responded by saying.
"Has the illusion shattered? Didn't I tell you that the children of wealthy and prestigious families are drastically different from those affluent handsome generals found in dramas? I think among the crowd there must be lots of snobbish frauds..."
For those she had come into contact with, the more capable one was, the more class one had, regardless of one's gender. They had better taste and practiced low-key behavior in whatever they did. Sweeping her gaze across the scene, there were too many of those wearing dazzling clothes to draw attention to themselves!
As the two whispered, the music on the stage was suddenly switched to gentle background music before a clear male voice rang out through the hall.
"Thank you for attending the
Dancing Kingdom Festival. Right
now, we're going to start our solemn
screening to select the empress of flowers today! Today, we will select three beauty queens of the Dancing Kingdom, namely the Maria
Empress, the Maria Concubine, and the Maria Noblewoman. The three selected ones will respectively receive a golden rose made of pure gold tailored for our hotel. Every beautiful lady is welcome to
participate in the event. I now wish
everyone good luck!"
As soon as the host's voice faded away, three golden roses of different sizes and
shapes bloomed in the exhibition box under the shimmering light.
"The rules of the game are simple. As long as the men and women present practice the International Style of Ballroom Dancing and have confidence in their own dancing skills, everyone can bring a partner onto the dancefloor, regardless of gender. The music playing mid-stage will shift at any time, and our professional dancers will select a man to step down from the stage. Any of those who fail to adjust to the beat and rhythm of the new music will lose and be brought off the stage. The rest of the dancers on the stage must consist of a man and women duo. In other words, when everyone steps onto the stage, there may be more men and fewer women, or perhaps more women and fewer men, but after several rounds, there will be a one-on-one ratio. They will form random groups. It is to test each other's skills and tacit understanding. This is entertaining as well as the highlight of the carnival. I hope it will bring everyone a different kind of good luck. There may be a mysterious surprise."
As soon as the host pointed to one side, the circling lamps around a round table lit up, along with which two professional dancers stood on the side. Obviously, they would occupy a spot to force a man out of the dancefloor in every round. One of the two should be a substitute. The principle of the game was simple and was no different from children playing musical chairs.
Waverly did not have much interest, but Xena's eyes lit up at the prize. Halfway through the host's words, she grabbed Waverly's hand with such strength that she had almost ripped off her thumb.
"Miss Waverly, let's have a try! The prizes are gold roses. We might be able to purchase two lipsticks after selling it off."
Not to mention that the golden roses were gorgeous! Even if she could not win the first three-dimensional life-like rose, it would still be great if she could obtain the half-three-dimensional inlaid ornament!
Before Waverly could react, Xena had already pulled her to the dance floor!
After visiting the washroom, Wyatt was checking his phone when he was attracted by the noise. Turning around, a mesmerizing figure on the dance floor entered his
sight...
