C278 Too Kind

"Thank you very much for coming to my ball. I hope it will bring a pleasant mood to everyone, if there is anything lacking... I'm here to express my deep satisfaction " Tao Ning held the microphone and maintained her gentle tone. After she finished speaking, she bowed to the row of people in front of her who were looking at her.

If Gu Zhengchu's arrival did not bring him a lot of trouble, he should apologize to someone else. It would be these guests who had been invited to her dance. Although she didn't know anyone other than Shi Dingliang, as the host, she should be responsible for the guests.

She didn't make everyone happy the whole time. Instead, her matter had brought them a lot of discomfort. Regarding this point, she was willing to admit her mistake.

After Tao Ning's words fell, Shi Dingliang was the first to stand up and applaud for her. "Miss Wei's words are too serious. I feel very happy about this dance."

When these words came out, those guests who originally wanted to suck up to Wei Tingjun also applauded and said nice words. Then, there was even more applause.

Regardless of whether they were sincere or had other motives to say these flattering words, after the entire dance, it was still considered to be a complete success.

When she thought that her first dance could actually come to a perfect end, and that it was Gu Zhengchu who came to stir up trouble, Tao Ning revealed a genuine smile from the bottom of her heart.

In this series of events, Wei Tingjun stood by the side without saying a word and looked at Tao Ning. He originally thought that Tao Ning would be timid when she stood in front of everyone after receiving such rumors. Perhaps she would panic and be at a loss, or push him directly onto the stage.

But he did not expect that during the entire process, her performance would be very good. She did not do anything that made him feel embarrassed at all. She had adjusted her emotions so quickly, which made him look at her in a different light. Once again, he was sure that this woman could not be underestimated.

The fact that he had made such a discovery during the dance this time was not a waste of his time.

When they walked out of the restaurant, the sky outside was already as dark as a huge black curtain. There was no moon or stars. A gust of wind blew over, bringing with it a slight chill. Tao Ning could not help but wrap her clothes tightly.

"Ning, are you cold? Why don't I give you the clothes to wear. Your clothes are too thin." Shi Dingliang saw Tao Ning's actions and did not want to take off his coat.

"No, no need. I will get on the car immediately. There is an air conditioner in the car." Tao Ning quickly opened her mouth to stop him.

Back then, she gave up on Shi Dingliang and chose to be with Gu Zhengchu. Although the fact proved that she was blind, she did not have the face to accept Shi Dingliang's kindness to her. There was really no need to do that again.

"That's true. Ning, quickly get in the car!" Shi Dingliang heard what she said made sense, so he did not force her anymore.

He wanted to start over with Tao Ning, but he understood that this matter could not be rushed. Besides, she had so many people with her. If he asked her to accept his coat, she would definitely feel embarrassed.

After saying goodbye to Shi Dingliang, Tao Ning got into the car. She did not really feel very cold, but she did not dare to touch Shi Dingliang's eyes that were like burning flames.

Shi Dingliang kept watching her until he could no longer see the car she was in. Only then did he get into his car.

In the black Maybach not far away, a pair of eyes as cold as ice took in this scene. Anger rushed into his eyes.

"Anjie, I'm still too kind, right? I didn't completely mess up this dance." Gu Zhengchu smashed his fist on the car door, and the car immediately made a dull sound.

As the sound was heard, Anjie's body trembled, and he forced a smile on his face. "Actually, Young Master Gu, you've already done a better job, but I didn't expect Shi Dingliang to come."

"Do you mean that she only continued the dance because of Shi Dingliang?" Gu Zhengchu took over Anjie's words and stared at him with a pair of blood-red eyes.

Anjie suddenly wanted to slap himself. He wished he could swallow those words.

"No, Young Master Gu, I mean that Shi Dingliang should not have come..." After saying so much, it seemed like he was still saying that Tao Ning's attitude towards Shi Dingliang was very different. It was better for him to keep his mouth shut.

"That Shi Dingliang thinks that he can be lawless because someone is protecting him. He doesn't take me seriously anymore, does he? I'll break his wings and see how he can fly. " Gu Zhengchu shouted coldly. Every word was filled with the aura of ice.

Was Young Master Gu preparing to use a ruthless move? This time, Shi Dingliang felt better. He dared to snatch a woman from Young Master Gu. If it wasn't because he was tired of living, what else could he do?

"As for Wei Jiyue, I want to see how long you can be happy!" Gu Zhengchu gritted his teeth. Every word came from his teeth. It sounded like he wanted to tear Tao Ning apart.

Anjie could not help but shiver. He asked carefully, "Young Master Gu, what are you going to do?"

"What do you want to do? I am going to meet her in court tomorrow!" Gu Zhengchu roared angrily. His eyes were burning with anger.

Go to court? Young Master Gu was going to officially sue Tao Dayu?

Tao Ning only looked away when she could no longer see Shi Dingliang. She hugged her arms tightly and hid in the car without saying anything.

"Is Miss Jiyue unwilling to part with Mr. Shi just now?" Fei Aoting saw her unhappy look and made a guess.

When Tao Ning heard these words, it was as if she was stepped on by someone. She immediately stood up and looked straight at Fei Aoting, "Aoting, you cannot say this nonsense!"

"Yes, Miss Jiyue." Fei Aoting was somewhat frightened by her sudden change in attitude and quickly nodded her head to agree to her but she was puzzled in her heart. Could it be that she really misunderstood?

"Uh, Aoting, I don't mean to blame you." Seeing that Fei Aoting was somewhat frightened and treated her as politely as when they first met, Tao Ning only then realised that her tone just now was not very good and hurriedly explained.

"It is just that the relationship between us is not like yours."

"Aren't you two a couple? That's right, if you are a couple with him, wouldn't that have nothing to do with Gu Zhengchu? Why would Gu Zhengchu come and cause trouble for Miss Jiyue?" Fei Aoting kept guessing and did not notice that Tao Ning's expression was already gloomy.

By the time she reacted, it was already too late when she said something that an assistant should not have said. She had already said what needed to be said.

"Subordinate deserves to die, please punish Miss Jiyue." Fei Aoting turned her head towards Tao Ning and deeply buried her head. If it was not for the inconvenience in the car, she would have already knelt in front of Tao Ning and apologized.

"What you said just now was also correct."
