Chapter 465: Feeding Pure Humans in Cyberspace 6
Jiang Yao had only been working for a few days when she was called by her cheap father, who was a member of the cabinet, to a banquet.
The maid matched Jiang Yao with a tight moon-white dress and put on delicate makeup.
Raven at the side also put on a suit. He looked less youthful than usual and more like a gentleman, especially his weird silver hair, which was even more conspicuous against the black suit.
When Jiang Yao was about to leave, System 101 told her the purpose of the banquet.
"Host, this banquet should be specially for you to find a partner. All the people who come here are pure-blooded, and they are all the outstanding new generation of cabinet officials."
Looking for a partner?
interesting.
When Jiang Yao arrived at the venue, many people had already arrived.
She was wearing a moon-white dress that set off her slender figure and impeccable face, making her look like a moon goddess. Even though the raven next to her had the same dazzling beauty, it could not overshadow Jiang Yao's brilliance.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Yao, with either an estimation of her worth or amazement in their eyes.
Jiang Yao took Raven's arm and walked step by step to her cabinet father Jiang Sheng: "Father."
When Jiang Sheng saw Jiang Yao, his usually cold and serious expression softened. He handed Jiang Yao a glass of juice and said, "Ayao, have fun."
After saying this, his eyes fell on Raven, and his tone became much lighter: "Raven, then stay with me, and go make more friends."
Raven nodded when he heard that, then lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Yao, waiting for Jiang Yao to pull her hand away.
Jiang Yao raised her eyebrows, pulled out her hand nonchalantly, smiled at Jiang Sheng and nodded, "Okay."
Jiang Yao didn't expect that there would actually be a surprise at today's banquet.
When Jiang Yao saw this well-mannered, gentle, purebred human in front of him, three words came to his mind: predator.
"Ms. Jiang, I've heard a lot about you. You are indeed as beautiful as the rumors say." The man maintained a normal social distance with a gentle smile on his face, which made people not feel wary at all.
And judging from his appearance alone, this man could be described as someone who was sculpted by the goddess of beauty. When he smiled, many women's eyes would fall on him.
But from him, Jiang Yao could clearly feel the alien aura and the undisguised danger.
This predator was more rampant than any other predator Jiang Yao had encountered before, and he did not try to conceal his aura at all.
Jiang Yao lowered her eyes slightly, pretending to be nervous, biting her lips slightly, as if she was not very good at interacting with others:
"Thank you, sir. What should I call you?"
The man looked at the shy girl with a smile and said softly:
"Excuse me, my name is Li Xiuran, Xiu means self-cultivation and moral integrity, and Ran means right."
His voice was like the warmth of jade, and it was quite magnetic when one listened carefully, as if one's brain was being invaded by that voice.
Jiang Yao showed a dazed look on his face, but he pinched his palm with his right hand and was extremely alert.
The predator was very bold, using something akin to seduction on her in such a public place.
Li Xiuran saw that Jiang Yao's eyes were dull, and the corners of his lips curled up. He stretched out his hand and lightly circled Jiang Yao's waist, and whispered:
"If I ask Pavilion Master Jiang to marry me later, please help me, Miss Jiang."
Ha, so he was waiting for her here?
When Jiang Yao heard this, her lifeless eyes began to struggle.
Li Xiuran just stared at her coldly, not thinking that a native of a small world could escape his hypnosis.
Thinking of this, he simply put his arms around Jiang Yao's waist.
The moment he touched her, Jiang Yao's eyes turned from confusion to panic. She took a step to the side helplessly, away from Li Xiuran.
"Mr. Li, I'm not that familiar with you."
After Li Xiuran's hands were empty, his eyes narrowed slightly.
It seems that the daughter of the cabinet chief is rather withdrawn and has a strong resistance to intimate physical contact, so he just needs to not cross that line.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuran's face was filled with a gentle apology: "Sorry, Miss Jiang, I was abrupt."
"It's ok."
Jiang Yao lowered her head even lower, and her silky black hair covered her delicate face and expression.
The next conversation was that Li Xiuran was always looking for topics, and Jiang Yao was always neither soft nor hard, talking as soon as she could, and keeping silent about things she couldn't talk about.
When the dance part of the banquet started, Li Xiuran felt that the time was almost right. He bent down slightly and reached out to Jiang Yao:
"I wonder if I have the honor to dance with Miss Jiang?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yao refused.
Her little face was already red, and she nervously stirred the roots of her hair hanging in front of her and said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I'm not good at dancing, and I don't like to be too close to other people. Sorry, I'm leaving first."
Having said that, she fled towards Jiang Sheng, leaving Li Xiuran with only her back.
Li Xiuran raised his eyebrows indifferently. Girls with this kind of personality were actually the easiest to control. As long as they communicated a few more times, he could use hypnosis to control her.
Thinking of this, he also walked towards Jiang Sheng with a glass of wine.
The conversation between Jiang Yao and Li Xiuran was seen by everyone. Because the Li family was the family that the cabinet leader currently valued the most and was also the most powerful family besides the Jiang family, when Li Xiuran was communicating with Jiang Yao, the noble children of other families did not dare to step forward.
When Jiang Yao stood in front of Jiang Sheng, the latter asked her with a smile:
"Ayao, what do you think of Li Xiuran?"
Jiang Yao pursed her lips slightly and said angrily:
"Not very much, father. I don't really like communicating with other people."
As she spoke, she looked at Raven and said confidently:
"If only all men were as quiet as Raven."
Hearing Jiang Yao's words, Jiang Sheng found it quite funny. He raised his hand and patted Jiang Yao's shoulder: "You."
Then he saw Li Xiuran following.
"Master Jiang." Li Xiuran greeted Jiang Sheng first, then looked at Jiang Yao with a smile, "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Sheng looked at him kindly:
"Xiu Ran, A Yao was just complaining to me about you talking too much."
Li Xiuran laughed and said, "Sorry, Miss Jiang, it's just that your voice is so beautiful that I can't help but want to say more."
His eyes were warm: "It would be better if the topic I talk about was more interesting."
If it weren't for the extremely strong predatory aura on him, Jiang Yao might have actually believed his lies.
After hearing Li Xiuran's words, Jiang Yao just took a step back, hid beside Raven, and did not answer.
