Xia Xiaoluo and Ling Tianyi saw Ouyang Ziqian at the same time. He said to her, "Don't dance with him or I will make love with you all night!"
Xia Xiaoluo was afraid, but it was improper to refuse Ouyang Ziqian directly. So she pretended to fall over."Ah! My knees hurt badly! I also sprain my feet!"
Ling Tianyi was frightened, he squatted down immediately."What? I will take you to the hospital!"
Xia Xiaoluo took her mask off and made a face, whispering to Ling Tianyi."There is no need. I just don't want to dance with him!"
Ling Tianyi helped Xia Xiaoluo stand up, knowing her intention. He was delighted. Nobody could dance with her in front of him, because it would provoke him.
Ouyang Ziqian heard her scream and saw what happened, but he was not able to rush to her at once because there were so many people around.
"Xiaoluo, how are you?" Ouyang Ziqian asked anxiously. His anxiety was so obvious even though he wore a mask.
"Ouyang senior, I didn't speak just now, how could you recognize me?" Xia Xiaoluo thought that Ouyang Ziqian found her by accident, but she was wrong. She dressed up as a rabbit, so it was difficult for others to recognize her.
"You are my dancing partner, I can always find you whatever you wear. Are you injured?" Ouyang Ziqian asked, caring about her very much.
Xia Xiaoluo giggled and pretended to be regretful."Ouyang senior, I'm sorry that I can't dance with you tonight because I hurt my feet."
"Really? Take a seat and I will take you to the hospital at once!" Ouyang Ziqian felt nervous. He took Xia Xiaoluo to the nearest seat together with Ling Tianyi. However, he didn't know that Ling Tianyi was in the wolf costume.
"Ouyang senior, happy birthday to you! It's a present for you!" A beautiful girl said with a delicate box.
"Thank you." Ouyang Ziqian accepted it politely. It was improper for him to refuse because it was his birthday.
After that, the girls and boys in the Dance Club rushed to Ouyang Ziqian with their presents. Ouyang Ziqian felt upset even though it was always nice to receive presents.
Finally, with the background of the music, Ouyang Ziqian said, "Everybody dance and enjoy yourselves!"
Several bold girls went to invite Ouyang Ziqian to dance, but he refused. He said to Xia Xiaoluo, "Xiaoluo, I'm sorry for inviting them."
"It's okay. Enjoy yourself and I will take care of Xiaoluo." Ling Tianyi said with aura. It was easy for Ouyang Ziqian to recognize Ling Tianyi. Ouyang Ziqian was shocked and disappointed, because he could not dance with Xia Xiaoluo in the party. Not to say to talk with her alone.
Ouyang Ziqian didn't express his disappointment or depression. He said calmly and politely."You must be Manager Ling! We are honored to have you here. So please take care of Xiaoluo and I hope that you can enjoy yourselves here."
"We planned to stay longer, but we have to leave now. Xiaoluo sprained her feet, so I have to take her to see the doctor. I'm sorry and I hope that you won't mind." Ling Tianyi still behaved politely even though he disliked Ouyang Ziqian.
"It's all right. Treatment is more important!" Ouyang Ziqian said and looked at Xia Xiaoluo beside Ling Tianyi tenderly."Xiaoluo, you can call me if anything happens. You can call me even nothing happens because I'm worried. You got injured in my party, so I should take the responsibility."
"Ouyang senior, please relax. It's not serious and what I need is to have a rest." Xia Xiaoluo said politely.
"Xiaoluo, take the present out! We are going to leave." Ling Tianyi said and smiled slightly. It was a pair of gloves costing only 29. 9 yuan. Ling Tianyi thought that it was enough for Ouyang Ziqian.
Ouyang Ziqian became delighted at once when he heard that Xia Xiaoluo prepared a present for him.
Xia Xiaoluo glared at Ling Tianyi and took the pair of gloves out reluctantly."Ouyang senior, I didn't prepare anything delicate, I just bought a pair of gloves outside our school. It may be useful now because winter is coming."
Xia Xiaoluo gave it to Ouyang Ziqian and bit her lips, feeling awkward. Compared with the other delicate presents, hers was so cheap.
At the same time, Xiao Man walked to them with a goblet of red wine in her hands gracefully. She had recovered, wearing shoes with the heel of more than 10 cm.
"Did Xiaoluo give this to you? It's so kind of her!" Xiao Man said coldly. She did not wear a mask. She hoped that Ouyang Ziqian could invite her for the first dance, but he was always with the rabbit. So Xiao Man was sure that the one in the rabbit costume was exactly Xia Xiaoluo.
Instead of taking face of Xia Xiaoluo, Ling Tianyi really wanted to awkward Ouyang Ziqian, so he said slowly."It costs only 29. 9 yuan! I asked Xiaoluo why she bought such a cheap present for you just now! That's so cheap! In fact, we can afford some presents much more expensive."
Xia Xiaoluo was so awkward that she really wanted to escape, but Xiao Man added tenderly."It's all right because Ziqian won't mind. Xiaoluo may forget his birthday. There was no time for her to buy a proper present, so she bought this pair of gloves. It doesn't mean that Ziqian was as cheap as the gloves."
Feeling satisfied, Ling Tianyi nodded, because it was just what he wanted.
"Ouyang senior, I'm sorry! I think I should take them back, I'll buy you something else!" Xia Xiaoluo was extremely awkward, her face under the mask became red due to shame.
"Xiaoluo, never mind. I like this pair of gloves! Winter is coming, and I have just lost my old gloves, I am going to buy a new pair! Your present is very good! What's more, it's beautiful. So it's OK, because I hope that you all could have fun here. I will accept it and make good use of it!" Ouyang Ziqian took the pair of gloves and tried them on."Nice! They suit me well! I like your present! Xiaoluo, thank you very much!"
"Ouyang senior, I didn't mean to belittle you!" Xia Xiaoluo explained. She just wanted to by a present with her own money.
"Well, Xiaoluo, I won't misunderstand you! You sprained your feet, so go to see the doctor with Manager Ling now! Don't forget to tell me about your situation!"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Man took a delicate box out and said, "Ziqian, happy birthday to you!"
"Thank you!" Ouyang Ziqian received the box.
"Ziqian, how about opening it to see what I prepare for you?" Xiao Man said with a smile, intending to provoke Xia Xiaoluo.
"Xiaoluo got injured and I have to greet so many guests. I'm busy now, so I will open your present first later!" Ouyang Ziqian said politely. Knowing that the present must be very expensive and valuable, he didn't open it because Xia Xiaoluo would be more awkward.
"Well, let me help you!" Xiao Man took the box and opened it. Ouyang Ziqian didn't stop her because it was improper for him to do that.
"Ziqian, have a look! Do you like it?" It was also a pair of delicate, glittering gloves which was extremely better than that woolen pair.
Ouyang Ziqian frowned and said."Xiao Man, thank you. It's very kind of you"
Ouyang Ziqian only thanked her, but he didn't say whether he liked it or not. Being unsatisfied, Xiao Man added, "I know that you like the dance of Michael Jackson very much. This pair of gloves was under the hammer several years ago. Someone bought it, I found it and bought it for you. Today, I can give it to you as a birthday present, and I will be unhappy if you don't like it."
Ouyang Ziqian didn't know what to say. If he said that he liked it, Xia Xiaoluo would be more awkward. On the contrary, Xiao Man would be unhappy.
"I'd better collect the gloves of Michael Jackson, keeping them well. I won't use them to keep warm in winter, because they are so valuable. The gloves Xiaoluo bought may be useful. But I like both of them!" Ouyang Ziqian said for the sake of a compromise.
Ling Tianyi hoped that Xia Xiaoluo could lose face in front of Ouyang Ziqian, then she would be too shameful to meet Ouyang Ziqian again. But he wouldn't allow Xiao Man to embarrass her. So he said directly."Sir Ouyang, although you are rich enough, you are still a student whose task is studying. So here is a pen for you."
After that, Ling Tianyi took a pen out and handed it to Ouyang Ziqian.
"Thank you very much!" Ouyang Ziqian said politely.
"There is a signature of Michael Jackson on it!" Ouyang Ziqian was very surprised.
"My sister likes him very much, so I asked one of my friends to help me. But she was so naughty that I did not give her. Now that you like him as well, I will make it as a present for you! I hope you will like it!" Ling Tianyi left with Xia Xiaoluo.
Xia Xiaoluo thought of Dou Ya suddenly, so she looked back and said to Ouyang Ziqian."Ouyang senior, my best friend is another rabbit, please take care of her for me! Thank you!"
After that, Xia Xiaoluo was taken out by Ling Tianyi. But she didn't know that Dou Ya would start her painful unrequited love since then.
