Chapter 97: Chapter 97: All the Glory Belongs to Su Ruanruan
She said that and Hao Keke took a deep breath.
Right, she had practiced for so long, she would not lose to Su Ruanruan.
So after Su Ruanruan finished her piece, Hao Keke walked over.
"Miss Su, let me play instead."
Su Ruanruan sidestepped and lifted her head to look at her.
Hao Keke was about to refuse and sneer when Su Ruanruan smiled and said, "Fine, then you play your part."
She rose and nodded slightly.
Her manners were impeccable.
Bao Mingyuan, watching this unfold, was extremely pleased.
And Bao Jingyuan sneered: after Hao Keke plays, everyone will know what real piano playing is.
But when Hao Keke began to play, the guests showed no reaction.
Bao Jingyuan didn’t believe it.
Hao Keke was playing "Starry Sky", why was no one praising her?
In her view, it was better than Su Ruanruan’s performance!
She eagerly sought her second brother, craving his approval.
Bao Ziqi’s expression was not good.
Hao Keke’s "Starry Sky" was nowhere near Su Ruanruan’s; he had mistaken a stone for a gem.
While Bao Jingyuan was still pestering him, Bao Ziqi’s gaze fell towards the center of the dance floor.
The focus of his attention was Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan was dancing with someone.
Not just anyone, but Gu Ze.
Gu Ze was born handsome, a well-known playboy in the city, not taken in by women. Yet now he willingly danced with Su Ruanruan, behaving properly, holding her as if she were precious.
The thought of the Bao Family wanting to match Su Ruanruan with Gu Ze made Bao Ziqi’s blood boil.
Even, he felt a sudden urge to pull them apart.
Beside him, Su Qionglin, oblivious to his thoughts, purposely commented, "Ruanruan and the young master of the Gu Family are well-matched. The family patriarch agrees too."
"The old lady and my father disagree now," Bao Ziqi said coldly.
He could hardly stand Su Qionglin; even his words were intentionally contrary to hers: "Father has grown quite fond of Su Ruanruan now, thinking of keeping her close by."
This greatly displeased Su Qionglin: "But one can’t keep Ruanruan in the Bao Family forever, Ziqi. What about me?"
She tugged at Bao Ziqi’s hand, pleading, "Once I marry over, how am I to get along with Ruanruan day and night?"
But Bao Ziqi brushed off her hand, even colder now: "Do you think if you marry in, she will still want to stay at the Bao Family?"
Su Qionglin’s pride was hurt, yet she dared not erupt: "Ziqi, why do you depict me like I’m some kind of disease?"
Bao Ziqi sat down on a sofa nearby to drink, and she moved over in her wheelchair, asking softly, "What’s wrong, Ziqi? Who has upset you?"
Bao Ziqi pulled out a cigarette and lit it, "No one has upset me."
He exhaled a puff of smoke: "If your leg is inconvenient, don’t bother coming. These dances are dreadfully boring."
How could Su Qionglin not come? She had to keep an eye on him.
Indeed, in her absence, Su Ruanruan, that girl, had become coveted, drawing the gazes of all the men present. In such events, Su Qionglin was always the star, but today she was eclipsed by a young girl.
She would not admit defeat—once her leg healed, she would certainly recapture everyone’s attention.
Su Qionglin catered to Bao Ziqi, while he pondered over Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan was having a good time dancing with Gu Ze.
She had completely forgotten there was an eager man lurking on the sidelines.
Bao Jingyan.
Bao Jingyan also wanted to dance with her, but he knew if he dared to hold her in public, the little one would create a fuss afterward.
So, he could only hold a glass of red wine and talk business with others.
Occasionally, he glanced at her.
She did look remarkably well-matched with Gu Ze; even their brows and eyes bore a resemblance.
Bao Jingyan frowned at the thought that had suddenly crossed his mind.
