Xu Tong hesitated for a moment, then looked at Qiao Qian who was sitting not far away: "I'm sorry, Aunt Staci. When I went out, I swore that I would never let Qiao Qian leave my sight. I couldn't let her...

People are sitting there.”

Facing Xu Tong's rejection, Staxi felt extremely disappointed, but she knew very well the most sincere feelings in the hearts of children of this age.

Although she was unwilling to do so, she still nodded: "Of course, I don't worry about Qiao Qie being here alone."

After watching Stacie leave, Xu Tong walked up to Qiao Qian.

Qiao Xi smiled half-heartedly and said, "I really thought you could dance."

It is very impolite to step on the toes of a female partner at a dance. Stepping on them twice in a row will make you laugh.

Xu Tong looked around, and sure enough, many people had begun to whisper in the corner. Even in the noisy dance, Xu Tong could clearly hear the voices laughing at him.

He didn't take it seriously. At this time, the sound of the music gradually slowed down.

Xu Tong smiled and did not explain this issue. He just took Qiao Qian's hand, bowed slightly and said, "If you want to know, let's dance a song together first."

Qiao Qian looked at the rose that Xu Tong handed over. After a few seconds, she nodded and followed Xu Tong to the dance floor.

This made the ladies hiding nearby sigh again.

It was obvious that he was deeply saddened by this missed opportunity.

The piano plays a gentle accompaniment, this is a classic piece of music [Lamp of the Saxophone]

Very suitable for difficult dances such as modern dance.

When everyone saw Xu Tong entering the dance floor again, they couldn't help but look sideways. They didn't know if someone had arranged it deliberately or if they wanted to see Count Kevin's joke.

There was no one around the two of them, and a large space was reserved for them.

"Can you really do that?"

Josie was a little worried about her toes.

"Believe me, I once had a teacher who dominated all the dance halls for a time."

"All right!"

Faced with Xu Tong's kindness, Qiao Qian could only choose to believe it.

Along with the melody of the music, the two people's steps began to beat on the dance floor.

Those who originally wanted to watch Xu Tong's jokes gradually realized that little Earl Kevin's dancing did not look like a novice at all.

Not only that, Xu Tong's dance moves even faster and faster, so that Qiao Qian can hardly keep up with her rhythm.

Now everyone understood.

At that moment, several ladies looked at Stacie.

I'm not a newbie, but I don't want to dance with you, so I step on your toes deliberately.

Stacie had a cold face and looked at the two people on the dance floor with eyes that seemed to be on fire. She put down her wine glass angrily and turned around to go back to the room upstairs.

At the end of the song, Xu Tong put one hand on Qiao Qian's waist, and the other hand snaked up. Suddenly his fingers shook, and a paper rose appeared in his hand. As Xu Tong pinched it with his fingers, the rose

The petals slowly open.

"It's for you!"

For a moment, that scene simply made the women present scream with jealousy.

"boom…"

The photographer was very keen to capture the scene in front of him. I believe this photo will be enough to make the headlines in the newspapers tomorrow.

Qiao Xi blushed and picked up the rose, but after glaring at Xu Tong fiercely, the two of them completed the curtain call and exited the dance floor in front of everyone.

As soon as she got off the dance floor, Josie walked to the window with her head lowered.

"Why are you unhappy?"

Xu Tong looked at Qiao Qian's disappointed look and walked to the side and asked.

"You shouldn't embarrass your aunt like this, she will be very sad."

Josie sighed and looked out the window: "Actually, she is a poor person, but she is not a bad person."

"Oh, are you really so sure?"

Xu Tong knows better than Qiao Qian whether Stacia is miserable or not. Just when she was dancing, she looked at Stacie's fate, and her fortune is in danger.

People with such a destiny, both men and women, are the kind of people who are easygoing.

And in the end, you often don’t get any good results.

"She just didn't have a choice."

Josie raised her head: "If I weren't a young lady from the Morgan family, you wouldn't do this to me, would you?"

Xu Tong did not deny it. This was a fact and there was no need to deny it.

Josie sighed: "Actually, in this era, many people have no choice."

She remembered very clearly that there was a female classmate named Daphne who got along well with her in school. They had a good relationship and she even went to her home as a guest.

It's just that her family situation is not good. There are seven children in the family. Her mother needs to take care of her younger brothers and sisters full time, while her father can only support them with a meager salary.

I remember that when I first went to their house, Daphne's mother even brought out a cake for her to eat.

It was a taste she could still recall, a burnt smell, and a texture so hard that she almost bit her tongue.

But this does not affect the friendship between the two.

Until one day, Daphne didn't go to school for several days.

I found Daphne's mother and asked, but Daphne's mother could only cry and tell her that Daphne went to work.

Daphne's mother did not say where she would go to work.

When she said this, Qiao Xi's voice gradually trembled.

His fingers clenched Xu Tong's arm tightly, and Xu Tong could feel the fear radiating from Qiao Qian's body.

"She died later, and when people found her, she had been eaten by wild dogs and was beyond recognition.

It is said that her father sold her to a brothel. She disobeyed and was tortured to death and left in the wild."

Xu Tong patted her shoulder gently.

"Aunt Staci is actually the same. She just wants to be braver and choose to pursue the life she desires. There is nothing wrong with her."

Josie could still remember that when she was a child, her Aunt Stacie would often bring her all kinds of delicious food, and even secretly took her to watch the parade.

Qiao Xi also seemed to realize that she talked a bit too much today. Maybe it was because of the doorman in front of the elevator that she suddenly felt something.

"Sorry, maybe I shouldn't tell you this."

"It doesn't matter!"

Xu Tong handed over the handkerchief, wanting to change the subject. He raised his head and looked out the window: "Look, the moon is quite round tonight."

Qiao Qian raised her head after hearing this, but she didn't see the moon, but a bloody human head hanging in the air.
