The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 38 Prom
He saw that Lin Mi would rub against his skirt while walking with the bag, so he took the initiative to carry it.

She took advantage of the situation to grab the arm of the boy in sight, but she saw through her small thoughts at a glance and quietly dodged away.

His pinky little fingers only had time to touch the smooth sleeve before his hand slyly avoided it.With a flash of flexibility, there was about one meter between the two of them.

Seeing his attitude of intentionally keeping a distance, the girl was a little annoyed.Not only blushed from embarrassment, but also retracted his hand quite unhappy.

The black eyes reveal helplessness and confusion, which is caused by the unique sensitivity of young girls:

Knowing that he is interested in him, he deliberately avoids me. Could it be that he still loves that girl named "A Nan"...

She sighed, lowered her head and walked silently beside the boy.

He guessed the loss in someone's heart, and he couldn't bear it, but due to the disparity in status, he couldn't get too close.

The more you can't get it, the more you can't help but think wildly:
What if someone finds out and scolds him for clinging to a high-society family?
Lin Mi's parents must deal with this potential threat unceremoniously, right?

In the end, the two looked at each other without saying a word, and drove back in the car all the way.

In the car, Lin Mi seemed to be sulking, turned his head to one side, and used the clothes bags as "sandbags" to form a "dividing line" between the seats.

The guard driving the car was only seventeen or eighteen years old.Neat military uniform, neat hairstyle.He is of medium height and has good eyesight.

He is still young, but he has the privilege of following the young lady around in the Lin residence.

Seeing that the two of them were talking and laughing when they came out, but now they suddenly ignored each other, and guessed that the relationship between the two was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Driven by curiosity, he intends to test it out:

"Miss, at the ball tonight, how about you dance for me?"

Just as Lin Mi was about to say "yes", he secretly glanced at Qilan.

Those beautiful eyes were slightly closed, her expression was serious, and she seemed to have nothing to do with herself, which made her a little frustrated, so she had to change her words:

"I'll dance for everyone to see."

The boy was immersed in concentrated thinking.

From the thick bandages on Qijiang's head and the scars on his face, it is enough to infer that the pursuers are determined and ruthless, and it is not just as simple as catching them by mistake; the real target of those people is Gu Qilan, as long as he is not caught After that, the people behind the scenes will not let it go.

Thinking of the pen that he inserted into the enemy's temple as a weapon, a thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Blaming myself for being careless, I threw the pen cap on the boat and went ashore without packing it up.As long as the other party salvages the body, sees the pen, finds the cap, and searches all the way, it is likely to bring disaster to the school...

He suddenly remembered Lin Mi's bloody handkerchief, and he didn't see her take it out after returning home!

He pushed aside the pocket that blocked his sight with one hand, and pushed her drowsily: "Lin Mi, did you bring home the handkerchief that wiped my wound?!"

She opened her almond eyes slightly, and replied lazily: "Dirty, throw it on board."

It was getting late, and looking up at the gradually darkening sky, the young man instantly smelled the breath before the rainstorm.

After returning, he had no intention of staying for a long time, took out the jewelry box and put it in his pocket, lowered his head to clean up his things and prepared to go back to school.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Lin Mi grabbed the hem of his clothes with both hands, and earnestly said: "Mr. Zhang, I really want you to participate, please don't leave... Let's go back to school together after the dance, shall we?"

If he wants to leave, he only needs to grab her wrist and shake it a little hard without looking back, and he can achieve his goal.Wouldn't it hurt to leave like this? !

He bent down, gently opened the box, and presented it to the girl: "Lin Mi, happy birthday. Let's go together tonight."

A sparkling brooch lies in a silky box, indescribably in harmony with the new dress she bought.

When she was helping Qijiang choose a brooch, she was so fascinated by it.I didn't expect that the other party would quietly buy it because of their intentions.

Lin Mi reached out to take off the brooch, and looked over with expectant eyes: "I want you to help me wear it tonight."

He looked at her, smiled, and nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Lin ran over suddenly with the housekeeper, urging her daughter to get ready quickly. More than half of the guests in the hall had already arrived.

Lin Mi turned around and entered the bedroom, full of confidence that there was only one person.She desperately tried on one dress after another, combed her hair over and over again, lest she would not be dressed properly.
A moment later, the door opened.

The people outside the door saw their hearts beat faster at a glance.

This is the second time he's seen her with makeup on.

Perfume, eyebrow pencil, rouge and gouache, turned the slightly youthful and childish female student with braided braids into the curvaceous, black girl wearing high heels, wrapped in tulle and off-the-shoulder evening dress that made him unforgettable on the night of the first meeting. Ms. Lin with hair like a waterfall.

She handed him the brooch, and his fingers were trembling slightly: Really... Do you want to put it on for her yourself...

If your finger touches her, will it attract others' attention?

The young man tried his best to suppress the warm current in his nose, and finally put the brooch on without any risk. The smell of perfume and rouge on her body lingered between his fingers.

She graciously took his arm and led him downstairs to the largest hall in the garden.

The hall was brightly lit.The floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides are open, and the evening wind blows up the lavender silk curtains, like big butterflies flying.The floor is made of pure white marble, the ceiling is dotted with four bright crystal chandeliers, and there are Western paintings hanging on the walls.

Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin were busy drinking and chatting with the guests. Seeing their daughter holding him, they had to put down the entertainment and come together to interfere with her "inappropriate" behavior.

"Mimi, let go, he's a man, it's not good to do this." Mrs. Lin frowned and said straight to the point.

"Lin Mi, I'm about to grow into a big girl, so I can't be self-willed like a child."

Mr. Lin's reminder sounded a little more subtle.

She looked at her parents, unwilling to let go, but Zhang Xiaofa had gently removed her hand, turned around and went to the garden outside the hall.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lin quickly raised her handkerchief, "Mimi, a very important guest has come tonight, and he has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Lin Yitang is here. We have been separated for three years. Don't you want to see him?" After finishing speaking, Mr. Lin took his daughter's hand and prepared to take her there.

When Lin Mi heard the name, the smile on his face suddenly faded.

She can recite a lot of compliments from the elders of the family, such as being both civil and military, outstanding in appearance, unparalleled in the world and so on.

If it was just a cousin, she would be very proud.

If she hadn't met the person in front of her, she might have fallen in love with the engagement partner arranged by her parents.

But all kinds of things in the world are changing rapidly, who can stop them?

Mr. Lin's favorite son-in-law candidate has already gone north.

Even though consanguineous marriage has many disadvantages, this well-educated and enlightened military officer is still not exempt from it.

She turned her head, looked at the back of the person who was going away, broke free from her father's hand, stepped on her high heels and chased after him step by step:

"Don't go, wait for me!"

Yue'er hid, the starlight was dim, and the garden was full of shadows of trees at a glance. Lin Mi rolled up her long skirt and stretched her fair neck to look around, really anxious.

In the pavilion by the pond across the hall, there was a familiar figure.The impatient girl was overjoyed and quickened her pace, completely forgetting the safety of her feet.

At the water's edge not far from the pavilion, her nose suddenly smelled a burst of cold fragrance.

A little black dress with gorgeous pearl trim swept past her eyes with a powerful aura.

Before Lin Mi had time to see his face clearly, he was tripped over by the long white legs raised high by the other party.

She was so frightened that she couldn't make a sound, she threw her head back, and she fell into the pond at an angle...
