To an outsider, Zuo Ziyang and Shi Yingluo, in the center of the dance floor, looked perfectly in sync and incredibly intimate.
But only Zuo Ziyang knew the truth. To keep up with her, he had to focus all his attention on the dance moves, so he didn't get to enjoy the sweet intimacy everyone imagined.
But even so, he still loved dancing with her.
After all, it meant a lot of physical contact—initiated by Shi Yingluo herself.
He barely had time to savor each touch before the moment passed, but at least they *were* touching.
He was still very happy and quite satisfied.
At last, the dance came to an end.
Both Xu Shengxia and Zuo Ziyang had worked up a sweat.
Xu Shengxia was in a great mood and motioned for Zuo Ziyang to head off the floor with her to rest.
Lu Xiaochen came over, intending to ask Xu Shengxia for the next dance.
But Xu Shengxia refused, saying she was too tired and needed a break.
Lu Xiaochen didn't insist. Like a gentleman, he returned to his seat.
