Xiaoli, realizing something was amiss, could only smooth things over with a laugh and say, "I really can't keep up with Wanwan's dance steps, Gu made me a laughingstock. Now that Gu is here, I can finally step down."
His tone was neither humble nor arrogant, as if the role of Lu Wanwan's dance partner was always meant for Gu Annan, and he was merely filling in until Gu Annan arrived.
Lu Wanwan glanced around from the corner of her eye and could also tell from the music that this dance was about to end.
She had no choice but to compromise temporarily, lowered her eyes, did not look at Gu Annan's expression, but placed her hand on his.
By the time Gu Anjin limped over, everything had returned to normal.
In the resplendent venue, Gu Annan and Lu Wanwan were the couple that attracted the most attention among the dozens present.
Gu Anjin's mouth fell open in surprise.
