Endless Silver Machine

Chapter 8 Silent Declaration

The last night before the exercise happened to be the dance party that Lan Ming had started planning a month ago.

As guests, they are also invited to participate.

During the preparation time before the ball, many vehicles had already stopped in front of the castle. The nobles who came at the invitation of Her Royal Highness Princess Lanming Yiela nodded to each other, and then walked into the castle elegantly talking and laughing.

The ball hall was lit by the luxurious chandeliers on the dome, and the magnificent reliefs made the entire ball hall sparkle under the lights.

Many guests have gathered in the venue, and elegant classical music can be heard endlessly.

"They're almost here too."

Aika had already arrived at the venue before the girls had changed their clothes.

The tables in the venue were already filled with food and wine. Like everyone else, he was holding a dinner plate and waiting in an inconspicuous corner for the girls to enter the venue from the side door.

It is said that as the organizer, Lan Ming will enter the venue at the end.

"Aika!" Hearing the sound, he looked over and saw that Ling, who had already changed into a dress, was walking quickly towards this side, with Luoluo and Wei Xi following closely behind her. "You should stay in a more conspicuous position. We I’ve been looking for it for a long time.”

"Didn't Lan Ming arrange for you to come in through the side door?"

"There are three side entrances here, and we came in through the side entrance at the other end!"

The entire ball hall is thirty meters long, and there are so many people here now. It is understandable why Ling is so angry.

"Brother, have you met Tutor Tara?"

"By the way, Lan Ming should have also invited Tutor Tara. But I haven't met her yet."

"In such a big venue, it would be impossible to find her without PDA."

Ling pointed this out. It is an unwritten rule that PDAs are not allowed at the dance venue.

"Do you want to dance in this outfit..."

It was also Wei Xi's first time attending a dance party, and she didn't even have any basic skills.

"Luoluo, have you remembered the dance steps?"

"Only a vague impression..."

"Where's Ling?"

"I know a little bit about it, but I don't know if the talisman conforms to the aesthetics of the nobles."

The atmosphere of the entire venue suddenly changed, and everyone understood the reason in an instant.

The organizer of this ball, Her Royal Highness Princess Lan Ming Yiela, the third princess of the Bisi Empire, entered the venue from the main entrance of the ball hall accompanied by Charlotte, who was rarely seen in evening dress.

Under the sight of many nobles, she was as dazzling as flowers blooming on the ice field.

The nobles did not rush towards Her Royal Highness the Princess, but came forward to greet her in an orderly manner as if they had arranged it in advance.

The nobles invited this time were all Lan Ming's cronies, that is, Lan Ming's supporters. But Xia Luo will not take this lightly. She still stays close to Lan Ming, just to prevent unexpected things from happening.

There is no need for Aika and the others to deliberately imitate the aristocratic way of interacting with this kind of ceremonial behavior, Lan Ming said.

"When the dance starts, should I dance with him first?"

Ling is more concerned about this issue now.

"Sister Ling, didn't you agree to use a fair method to determine the order?"

Lolo immediately objected.

By the way, since you have already agreed in advance, decide it during preparation... Aika doesn't quite understand the way women think.

He has no interest in dancing. If one of the girls wants to dance and needs him as a partner, Aika doesn't mind helping out. The appearance of the three of them is already outstanding, and it is even more eye-catching after being carefully dressed.

The nobles here probably already know about the relationship between the four of them, and they are also specially invited by Her Royal Highness the Princess. As long as Aika stays with the girls, no nobles will come to ask for dances.

"If I come first, I can teach Aika the basic dance steps, and then he can lead you to dance. Isn't this reasonable?"

Ling put her hands on her chest wrapped in a tube top skirt, emphasizing her advantages with a winning smile.

"The most important thing about dancing is the coordination between the two of us. It is our first time to participate in a dance. Even if we learn the dance steps, if we don't practice the coordination, we will still make mistakes. So at this time, I should guide my brother to get familiar with the feeling of the dance. ."

Lolo objected again. She puffed up her cheeks as if she was slightly stunned, and faced Ling who had no intention of giving up, looking a little anxious.

If you were dancing with Luoluo, you wouldn't be nervous, but this situation was a different story.

Aika was already getting nervous, but she couldn't say anything in this atmosphere, so she could only pretend to be calm.

"Sister Ling, Luoluo, use other methods to decide..."

Wei Xi looked back and forth between the nobles and the movements in a panic. She seemed to be the only one who remained calm in this inexplicable "battle".

In fact, she just hasn't found a reason to rank ahead of Luoluo and Ling.

"Is there any other method that can be used now?"

Ling and Luoluo looked at Wei Xi who had entered the "dispute".

"That..." Wei Xi looked around hurriedly, "By the way, you can use this..."

She was referring to a plate of desserts arranged in a circle, which looked like just ordinary food.

“One of the flavors of this dessert is different from the others, and the color of the filling is also different…”

"This kind of food will appear on such occasions."

Wouldn’t the nobleman who tasted the unexpected taste be angry?

"Although the special one has a different taste, it is not an unpalatable taste. This is just to add some surprises and not make people feel unpleasant..."

“Then let’s decide based on the color of the filling.”

"Um."

Both Ling and Luoluo accepted Wei Xi's suggestion because there was no fairer way.

Aika was excluded, and the three of them each took out a piece of dessert with a fork and put it on their own plates, then cut it in the middle.

"Red."

"Me too, Xiao Xi... is also red..."

Then the cut desserts were eaten by them.

"It's delicious."

"Suddenly I want to taste that special taste even more."

"Then let's try it a second time..."

Although it felt like they were gradually deviating from their original purpose, they looked quite happy.

This plate of dessert was not prepared very much, and they had already eaten it all after three rounds. But there was still no dessert with different colored fillings.

"Wei Xi, are you sure you remember correctly?"

"There shouldn't be anything wrong...maybe that one has been eaten by someone else..."

"It's not Xiao Xi's fault. Is there any other way..."

The lights in the ballroom gradually dimmed and the melody of the music changed.

This was the signal before the dance officially started, and there was no time left for them to slowly decide the order.

"Sister Ling, let's go first."

Luoluo chose to compromise.

"Eh? Have you decided yet?"

When the baton was handed to Ling's hand, she was at a loss.

"Ling, just hold your hand, okay?"

"Well, it should be..."

Aika took Ling's extended hand.

"Then I'll ask you to guide me."

"Well..." Ling's smile was a little stiff, "I'm a little nervous."

"You should have been nervous just now."

“You won’t be nervous when you’re not holding hands!”

"Are you nervous about holding hands?"

"This, this is just one of the factors..."

Aika finished the dance under the guidance of Ling Bansheng.

The dance songs are not long and are carefully selected so that guests can dance with more people.

"Brother, don't be too strict."

Luoluo's hands did not tremble because of nervousness, partly because no one was paying attention to this side, and partly because the target was him.

"You don't have to look forward to it, I'll probably disappoint you."

"I will not be disappointed in my brother because what I expected has come true."

In line with this melodious music, the dance pace of the two slowed down a lot.

In the eyes of others, such dance steps are definitely not gorgeous, but both of them showed a satisfied smile.

"I haven't memorized the dance steps yet..."

Finally it was Wei Xi’s turn.

She practiced the song just now with Ling, but the effect didn't seem to be great.

"It doesn't matter, what's important is the atmosphere. I've already danced to two songs and I still can't remember them."

"Then... I'll make you laugh..."

She bowed slightly to Aika, and then timidly let Aika hold her hand.

Aika gently put her other hand around her slender shoulders.

Wei Xi's steps were still a little clumsy, and her movements were very small. Aika matched her movements effortlessly and ended the last song smoothly.
