A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 386: Boring

Seeing that his thoughts had been seen through, Wen Shao became even more self-righteous and said with a disdainful look, "So what, Guo Shao? Don't tell me you didn't have your eyes on them."

Qin Shao said with a sly look in his eyes, "I must say, these girls are all beauties that are one in a million. When I first saw them, I almost couldn't stop myself."

Chengye chuckled and said, "Looks like we've got our dance partners sorted out for tonight. Hey guys, how about we discuss it?"

Guo Shao patted Cheng Ye on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Brother Cheng, don't blame me for being nosy, but your wife is about to give birth. If she finds out, I'd like to see how you explain it to her. We're different, we're both single, so we don't have to worry about anything."

Chengye laughed and said, "Men do have social engagements outside, as long as my wife doesn't find out. Besides, my wife is always nagging and making a fuss. If it weren't for the fact that she's pregnant, I would have kicked her out long ago."

Guo Shao said, "That's where you're wrong. If you don't like her, why be together? Brother Cheng, I heard that your sister-in-law's father is the head of a military district. Is that true?"

Chengye replied, "Isn't that right? This haggard old woman, relying on her father being the eldest, always stands on my head to poop or pee. Sigh, what a miserable life!"

Qin Shao said, "It's good that someone is taking care of you; it shows that your sister-in-law cares about you a lot."

"Fine, I don't care. Ever since I got together with her, my poor freedom has been gone! I finally got out of here, how can I not do myself a disservice if I don't seek some excitement?"

Tang Qianqian's side...

After the women finished their meal, they went straight back to their rooms. Fangfang said, "Sister Qianqian, I think this President Cheng is also a frivolous person."

Tang Qianqian laughed and said, "He's always been an unserious person, not to mention the others."

Fangfang asked, "Are we still going to the dance tonight?"

Li Wei said, "Of course I'll participate. It would be a real shame to miss it."

Lily said, "Sisters, it's time to cultivate. Everyone, go back to your rooms and cultivate!"

"over!"

……

A dance hall is a place where you can relax and have fun.

The equally luxurious and magnificent Chengfeng Ballroom stands out with its unique design. The uneven soundproofing material provides an astonishingly effective sound insulation. Soft classical music resonates throughout the ballroom, creating a soothing atmosphere.

With the music flashing in all directions and above, the uplifting rock music, accompanied by the high-pitched DJ, made many people involuntarily start moving their bodies.

"Lily, hurry up! The ball has already started!" Li Wei, dressed in a white dress, stood at the door of the room and urged Lily and the others who were changing clothes, looking a little impatient.

Not long after, Tang Qianqian and Xiaomin and a few others came out, all wearing white dresses, as if they had prepared them specifically for tonight's ball.

"Qian, why hasn't Sister Baihe come out yet?" Li Wei asked.

Before Tang Qianqian could speak, Baihe came out of the room and said, "Wei, look how anxious you are."

Li Wei chuckled and said, "Hehe, it's a rare opportunity to attend a dance like this, how could I not be anxious?"

Fangfang said, "I heard that the people attending tonight's ball are either high-ranking officials or wealthy people. Ordinary people are not even qualified to attend!"

Li Wei said, "That's right. So tonight's ball is quite special. Let's hurry up, the ball has already started."

Rather than attending the ball, they were more there to join in the fun.

Lily and the others followed the robot Dingding to the ballroom, to their private lounge area. Since meeting Chao Bufan, Li Wei and Zhang Xiuli had become much more reserved. They sat there sipping strong red wine, their gazes occasionally sweeping across the dance floor, as if everything around them was irrelevant, which had its own unique charm.

The ball was unique, but its underlying meaning was even more so. Many wealthy businessmen seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to try and establish business alliances, and quite a few even hoped to use the evening's ball to get to know high-ranking officials. Of course, businesses had their alliances, and officials had their interactions; such things were unavoidable on such a occasion. Therefore, despite the vast ballroom, very few people were actually dancing.

"A bunch of grown men, this is hardly a dance party! It's so boring." Mao Mao swirled the wine in his glass and took a leisurely sip.

Such a ball was hardly a lively affair; people gathered in groups of three or five, discussing business matters or sharing their experiences as eunuchs.

Even at a real ball, Lily and the other girls from Sun Village would probably have no interest in such an occasion! Otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting there idly drinking their red wine and chatting, completely indifferent. Tang Qianqian and Murong Fangfang didn't seem interested either, only Zhang Xiuli kept glancing outside, her wandering eyes seeming to be searching for something.

"Well, Young Master Wen and his group have arrived." Zhang Xiuli said when she saw Young Master Wen and his group of four.

"How could such an occasion be complete without them? It would be strange if they didn't come," Li Wei said casually.

Zhang Xiuli's eyes darted around, and she moved closer to Li Wei, chuckling, "Wei, how about we teach them a lesson?"

"Forget it! It's pointless."

The first thing Wen Shao and his group did upon entering was to look for Tang Qianqian and the others. As soon as they entered, they didn't bother to listen to the robot's description and immediately stood on tiptoe, searching for Tang Qianqian and the others.

"There they are," Qin Shao said, pointing to the spot where Tang Qianqian and the others had been.

"Come on, let's go there."

As they spoke, the four of them walked towards where Tang Qianqian and the others were. When they reached the crowd, Cheng Ye accidentally bumped into a man in his fifties wearing a suit and tie. The man had been chatting enthusiastically with several other men when Cheng Ye bumped into him, and he almost spilled the red wine in his hand. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough to avoid wasting it. Turning around, he exclaimed with delight, "Oh, President Cheng, President Wen, President Qin, President Guo, you're here too! It's a pleasure to meet you!"

Cheng Ye glanced at him and smiled slightly, "So it's General Manager Zhang, a pleasure to meet you!"

Mr. Zhang said, "Mr. Cheng, Mr. Wen, it's rare for us to meet here. Why don't we go sit over there?"
