"Pope Kailin specially sent someone to invite me before. If I don't come, wouldn't that be a breach of trust?"
Ji Ningshuang walked into the hall with graceful steps. Her gorgeous white dance dress showed her maturity. Her long black hair was naturally loose, and the hem of her skirt fluttered gently as she walked, revealing a pair of pure white high heels. On her jade-like feet, blue veins were faintly visible, and her toes were painted with alluring nail polish.
She actually wore light makeup tonight, her facial features were delicate and picturesque, exuding a cool elegance.
Ji Ningshuang is already a beautiful lady without makeup, but with light makeup on, she adds a bit of indescribable charm.
She glanced at Kailin in the middle of the dance floor and said softly, "It's rare that Pope Kailin is so interested. It seems that I am late... Were you dancing with a junior just now?"
Translated, this sounds like it means: Isn't it shameful for you, a man over 2,000 years old, to dance with a teenage boy?
However, only Karen understood the meaning of these words.
Kailin was not angry at all. Instead, she showed a gentle smile and said softly, "It was just a whim. I heard that Sect Master Ji has been very close to a student recently and is quite fond of him, so I observed him out of curiosity."
"How is the result?"
"Very good." Kailin nodded slightly and smiled.
It sounds a bit like saying: Your man is very useful.
The conversation between the two seemed to be very ordinary, and most people present did not notice anything wrong.
Or perhaps they were all so shocked by Ji Ningshuang's attendance at today's dinner that they had no time to think about anything else.
You know, this Sect Leader Ji has never attended any dinner party since he came to Pingcheng.
But tonight she came...
But it is true... After all, today's dinner was prepared by the church, and Pope Karen is also coming tonight.
It's not surprising that Sect Leader Ji would give some face.
Thinking of this, the guests felt relieved.
Previously, they were all wondering why Pope Kailin would attend the dinner tonight... Now it seems that perhaps His Holiness the Pope knew from the beginning that Sect Leader Ji would come, so he deliberately waited for her here in advance.
Ji Ningshuang glanced around the dance floor for a few times, and suddenly smiled brightly: "It's a pity that I was a step too late and didn't see Pope Kailin's performance on the dance floor just now."
The bright and charming smile was so beautiful that it seemed to dim the brilliant golden hall.
When she finished speaking, there was indeed a hint of regret in Ji Ningshuang's tone.
But when Ji Ningshuang's gaze inadvertently fell on the young man in the center of the dance floor, there was some hidden emotion hidden deep in her beautiful eyes.
At this time, Kailin took half a step forward and stood between Yu Ze and Ji Ningshuang without leaving a trace.
"If Sect Master Ji feels regretful, I don't mind dancing with this child again."
"It can be regarded as a welcome to Sect Master Ji... What do you think?"
Ji Ningshuang narrowed her eyes slightly.
Yu Ze didn't say a word from beginning to end, but at this moment he already felt the tremendous psychological pressure.
In such an eerie silence, Yu Ze coughed lightly and said in a gentle voice: "I'm sorry to interrupt the conversation between the two seniors... but after the dance I just finished, I was really exhausted, so..."
This was a very tactful and implicit way of saying that he couldn't jump anymore.
I really can't dance anymore. When I was dancing with Karen just now, Yu Ze felt the extremely dazzling gazes all around him.
What would happen if there was one more dance...it's hard to imagine.
Originally, because of Ji Ningshuang's arrival, everyone almost ignored Kailin's invitation to dance, but now the topic shifted to him again.
Not far away, Ye Xian'er saw this scene and for some reason felt a sense of gloating.
When facing Yu Ze before, she always felt that this man was too mature in the way he spoke and acted.
When I saw this scene now, I finally found it interesting.
Although this "somewhat interesting" is based on Yu Ze's pain...
Kailin didn't force it, she smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I won't force it."
"If you don't mind, I'll treat Sect Master Ji to a couple of drinks tonight."
The classical music in the golden hall echoed again, and while speaking, Kailin left the dance floor with Yu Ze.
The men and women on the dance floor started a new round of dance. Because of his identity, Yu Ze did not go with Kailin to receive Ji Ningshuang, but returned to his seat tiredly.
Not far away, the waiter was pouring wine for Kailin and Ji Ningshuang.
There were three people standing next to Karin, namely Bishop Norton from the Holy See Church, Modesty, and her confidant Chizuru Baojing.
"Please all take a seat. Since this is a dinner party, there's no need to be so formal." Kailin said softly.
The three of them looked at each other, very moved, but did not dare to move.
But since His Holiness the Pope had spoken, they could only sit down and follow Karin's instructions.
"Your Holiness, can I go and see how Miss Xian'er is doing? Before I came here, the head of the Ye family asked me to take good care of her daughter..."
At this time, Bishop Norton suddenly asked tentatively.
He vaguely smelled a scent of danger and now just wanted to get away as soon as possible.
The three people from the church nearby secretly cursed this old fox from the inner planet for being cunning and finding an excuse so quickly.
Although it was an honor to be able to sit at the same table with His Holiness the Pope, there was also Ji Ningshuang sitting at the table...
The pressure of sitting here is really too great. From the moment Ji Ningshuang took her seat, the pressure unintentionally exuded by the saint increased everyone's psychological pressure countless times, and their legs felt a little weak.
The higher the realm, the more innate awe one will have for the saints.
That’s why they were so surprised that Yu Ze was able to dance with Kailin just now.
Karin is already infinitely close to a second-grade demigod. Let alone contacting her, even getting close to her can easily make people feel awe. They dare not even look up at her, let alone dancing with their arms around the Pope's waist like Yu Ze did just now.
Kailin hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly: "Go."
Norton secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was about to get up.
At this time, he heard Kailin continue to say: "By the way, the kid named Yu Ze just now performed very well. His mentality is much better than his peers. He is a good seedling. I am slightly interested in him."
Kailin raised her beautiful blue eyes and said calmly, "Go and call him over to have dinner together."
……
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Yu Ze had just returned to his seat and slumped in the chair, looking a little dazed.
In fact, for Yu Ze, it was nothing if it was just a dance...
But the person he was dancing with was Karen, and it was at this grand dinner party...the psychological pressure was huge.
It would have been fine if it was just like that. Yu Ze thought that after the dance he would have some peace and quiet for a while.
Unexpectedly, she also came...
Looking at the beautiful sect leader in white dress not far away, Yu Ze felt complicated for a moment.
"Your performance just now was really surprising. If you were a normal person, you probably wouldn't be able to continue dancing halfway through."
Just as I sat down, Ye Xianer's clear and pleasant voice suddenly came from the side.
Ye Xian'er looked Yu Ze up and down, shaking the red wine in the glass, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you will become famous after tonight."
If it were possible to record a video, this video would have caused a huge uproar on the Internet once it was leaked.
"Has classmate Yu Ze met the Pope?"
Bai Ruixuan also asked. She looked at the boy with some doubt and continued, "I always feel that she seems to have a good impression of you..."
Yu Ze's expression did not change at all. He shook his head and said, "I don't know her... This is the first time I've seen her."
"As for the favorable impression he had of me... I think it was because of Sect Master Ji that he developed some interest in me."
Bai Ruixuan nodded thoughtfully.
That's true. After all, Ji Ningshuang had summoned Yu Ze several times before. It's understandable that the Pope would be interested in him since he was favored by a saint.
Yu Ze didn't say anything else. He held the wine glass and looked at the table where Kailin was with some concern.
Not only Yu Ze, many people attending the dinner today were very concerned about Ji Ningshuang's movements.
If the occasion wasn't wrong, someone would have come up to talk to me.
As an ancient force in the heavens, as long as they can get close to Guiyi Sect, they won’t have to worry about dying in the heavens even if they become time travelers in the future.
Many people present were from the East Continent, so after becoming time travelers, they would also appear in the East Continent of Heaven.
Even if they don't become time travelers in the end, the natural treasures within the Guiyi Sect alone are enough to attract people.
But in the current situation, it is not appropriate to go up and talk.
After all, the relationship between the East Continent and the West Continent is not very good, and I don’t know what the relationship between Sect Master Ji and Pope Kailin is like.
If I rashly approach and start a conversation now, I might offend both sides and that would be very troublesome.
Yu Ze had the same concerns in his heart.
But I wasn't worried about offending them, I was worried about other things...
But we are at a dinner party after all, and there are so many people here tonight, so they shouldn't be in any danger...
Thinking of this, Yu Ze felt that his tired body relaxed a little.
He picked up the mellow red wine and took a sip. At this moment, he saw a man walking towards him not far away.
"Sir, your performance with His Holiness the Pope tonight was truly touching. If possible, I would like to invite you and my daughter to have dinner together. This is my business card."
With an elegant and graceful smile, the well-dressed man came to Yu Ze's side, holding a wine glass in his hand, and handed Yu Ze the business card he had prepared long ago.
"Thank you, I'd love to if there's a chance."
Yu Ze smiled back, clinked his glass with the man's, took the business card, and watched the man leave.
Bai Ruixuan took a curious look at the business card and whispered, "Is he the chairman of Hongbo Group? I've seen his daughter's piano launch before. She's a very beautiful girl. Congratulations, Yu Ze."
Yu Ze sighed silently and said nothing.
He had been worried about this situation since Karen invited him to dance.
Although because of Kailin's actions, the Holy See Church will most likely regard him as a friendly party...but at the same time, there will be troubles like this.
Bai Ruixuan was about to speak, but soon another customer came up to him and, after clinking glasses, handed him his business card.
There were also guests who brought their daughters to clink glasses with Yu Ze.
In fact, with Yu Ze’s assets, he is not even worth the attention of tonight’s guests.
But the fact that Kailin invited Yu Ze to dance tonight is itself worth pondering.
Regardless of whether Yu Ze had any background in the past, the invitation from His Holiness the Pope tonight was enough for them to humble themselves and take the initiative to clink glasses with Yu Ze and hand over business cards to expand their network.
After all, having the courage to dance with the delicate body of a third-rank pope is not something that ordinary people can do.
For nearly ten minutes, people kept coming up to clink glasses with Ye Xian'er, who was happy and relaxed, drinking alone in the corner with her glass in hand.
Only after seeing off the last guest did Yu Ze finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Ye Xian'er looked at Yu Ze's almost stiff smile and couldn't help but chuckle.
She was about to say something when she saw a man walking towards them not far away.
Yu Ze, who had just relaxed, sighed deeply in his heart and then put on his business smile again.
When she saw this man, Ye Xian'er was a little surprised.
Confusion was revealed in her beautiful black and white eyes: "Bishop Norton? What do you want?"
The person who came in front of Yu Ze was the bishop from Lixing, Norton.
The bishop of the church bowed and said gently, "Your father specifically asked me to take good care of you before he came, so I wanted to ask Miss Xian'er that if you feel unwell, you can contact me at any time."
"Thank you. If you have any questions, I will trouble the bishop." Ye Xian'er replied with a smile.
He just gave the bishop a meaningful look.
This bishop was under too much pressure sitting at Karen's table, so he used her as an excuse to "slip away", right?
At this time, Norton's eyes quickly fell on Yu Ze, and he smiled and said, "This is Mr. Yu Ze, right?"
Even though he didn't like the natives of this planet before, Norton still looked at Yu Ze with some sympathy.
Even though he had never followed Pope Karin in the past, Norton could more or less see that the relationship between His Holiness the Pope and Patriarch Ji was not very good.
