Shen Fanxing didn't respond and so, Bo Jinchuan pressed the crease between her knitted brows gently.
"I won't watch it next time."
That warm expression on his face was vastly different from the cold and aloof man who had appeared before everyone earlier on.
His small action conveyed his affection and love for her.
As a result, all the women's hearts stirred. This man's every move and slight expression carried an irresistible charm. He was full of fatal temptation.
"Continue bidding," instructed Bo Jinchuan curtly. He retracted his hand and looked at the host.
Panic gripped the host as she added hastily, "Alright, let's continue bidding! Now, Miss Shen Fanxing has received one hundred million yuan as her bid. Anyone wants to continue?"
A hundred million yuan for a dance!
That was crazy enough. Other than this mysterious man whom no one recognized, who would do such a crazy thing?
Su Heng naturally couldn't raise his bid any further.
A hundred million yuan… His company didn't even have that much liquidity in total. How could he compete with that man?
The host's gaze lingered on Su Heng for a few seconds. After concluding that he had no intention to continue bidding, she announced aloud.
"Okay! Congratulations to Miss Shen Fanxing and her Mister Hundred Million! The opening dance for tonight's event shall belong to the both of you!"
The whole event hall erupted in wild, raucous applause. Not long after the announcement, the melodious sound of violins echoed.
Bo Jinchuan smiled and let go of Shen Fanxing. He took two steps back and bowed his head before extending his hand for a dance.
There was a buzz around Shen Fanxing as she looked at the fair hand in front of her. A smile unknowingly appeared on her face.
She stretched her hand and gently placed it in the man's.
The hand that had just landed on her palm was wrapped instantly by the man. His large palm transmitted warmth to her.
He was kneading her hand lightly, his thumb lightly caressing her palm…
Shen Fanxing looked up to see him staring at her with rapt attention. His eyes contained surging emotions.
His other hand rested lightly on her waist before he wrapped his palm around her waist through her gown. Pulling her closer to him, the warmth from his palm was hard to ignore.
Her heart trembled and her breathing became irregular.
She didn't reject him and complied by moving instinctively into his embrace. Her arms lifted slowly and rested on his shoulders.
The man towered over her. In order not to tire herself out, she could only lean to be closer to him.
The lights dimmed and they stared at each other silently. In the next second, the music started and Bo Jinchuan led her with a slow sway…
The two of them continued to gaze into each other's eyes. At such close proximity, there were unavoidable emotions reflected in their eyes. That created an atmosphere where unseen love and affection flowed around them.
"You're very beautiful tonight."
Bo Jinchuan's gaze lingered on her rosy lips from earlier. He then complimented her openly in a low and husky voice.
"Thank you."
"Is thank you the only word you can say with that mouth of yours? You should consider another way of thanking me," teased Bo Jinchuan, his eyes still on her lips.
Shen Fanxing bit her lips and turned her head slightly. A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face.
"Can your intention not be so obvious?"
Bo Jinchuan chuckled softly and asked, "Huh? What is my intention?"
Shen Fanxing pressed her lips lightly, her expression chagrined.
"Don't keep staring at my lips. I feel like I don't know when you're going to kiss me!"
Bo Jinchuan's grip on Shen Fanxing's waist tightened.
"That's true.. But if you continue biting your lips like that, I plan to kiss you the next second."
