Mi Chan was dressed in a beige gown. It fitted her top and fell till her ankles, revealing her heels. The dress glimmered when the golden gleam was reflected on it.
Her face covered in a very thin layer of makeup, she looked splendid. The smokey touch to her eyes, added to her beauty. Her diamond choker paired with two studs in her ears were a cherry on top.
Her glossed lips curved up so very lightly. Everyone turned to stare at her. Both Li Zinhuo and Wang Zhao stared at her in awe.
Wang Zhao's heart skipped a beat. She indeed looked beautiful. He was too busy to notice Li Zinhuo eyeing his girlfriend.
Li Zinhuo on the other hand was mesmerized by her. His throat itched with something. He didn't know what to do with the effect Mi Chan had on him.
At that moment, he did regret not chasing her. She was the most beautiful woman he had seen. She walked closer to him every second. Their eyes met, he felt something ignite within him.
He almost forgot, she was getting engaged to his best friend that day. He gulped when she was just a step away. Her musk scent calmed his brain but before he could do anything, her hand was taken away and she turned to Wang Zhao.
He jumped back to reality. His eyes wandered on their intertwined hands, as Wang Zhao kissed the back of Mi Chan's hand. Li Zinhuo cleared his throat and tried to control his unpleasant expression.
Wang Zhao smiled at Mi Chan. "You look beautiful as ever."
Mi Chan blushed. "You too look handsome as ever."
Mrs Wang smiled at them. "Well, since everyone is here. We should not delay the ceremony too much. I will prepare for everything."
She walked away. Mi Chan turned to look at Li Zinhuo standing right beside her. She was standing in the middle of two best friends.
She nodded her head respectfully. "Mr Li Zinhuo, thank you for the jewelry. I really love it."
She stroked the choker and it made Li Zinhuo smile. "Thank You, future sister-in-law," he exclaimed.
His words were somewhat provoking to Mi Chan. She couldn't calm her racing heart when she looked at him. He was looking too good to be true.
Looks wise, she could never choose between Li Zinhuo and Wang Zhao. Both handsome but somehow, Li Zinhuo made her heart skip a beat every time she saw him, especially after certain events.
She didn't love him. She sighed," what am I thinking." She mumbled under her breath. She was getting engaged, so she needed to control her thoughts.
She couldn't think of another man with her boyfriend standing beside her. She sighed and looked back at Wang Zhao.
Wang Zhao raised her hand to his lips again. "Let's go and dance." Mi Chan smiled at him and nodded.
Ji Jin walked to Li Zinhuo. "I am lonely, are you? Let's dance."
Li Zinhuo chuckled and said calmly,"Okay Miss." He kissed the back of her hand smirking. She rolled her eyes and blushed.

Sang Qian swayed side to side as she followed Wang Yuhan's lead. "Oh Mi Chan's here."
He turned her around and looked in the direction she was looking. "She looks beautiful indeed."
Sang Qian nodded. "True but, how can you appreciate another woman in my presence?" Sang Qian looked in his eyes as he stiffened.
"Hm, are you trying to imply something?" He asked as he swirled her around. She raised her hand and propped it on his shoulder.
His hand slid to her waist. "I might fall deeper for you."
Sang Qian sighed. "Should I tell you something?"
He raised a brow as they both noticed that others joined them on the dance floor too. He looked around and noticed Li Zinhuo kissing the back of Ji Jin's hand. He felt something inside of him but he ignored it and looked back at Sang Qian.
She smirked. "Ji Jin loves you." She noticed his eyes on her and knew it was the perfect time.
He frowned. "what are you talking about?" he questioned weirdly.
She smiled. "She really does, she is so in love that she even asked me to accept your feelings. She doesn't want you, she just wants you to be happy."
Wang Yuhan turned his head to Ji Jin as she was laughing swaying side to side with Li Zinhuo's hand on her bare back.
His hold tightened on Sang Qian as he looked back. "I don't care. I like you. And I will stick with my feelings for you. She just.. she is not the one for me. She is so wild and outgoing. I don't like it."
Sang Qian scoffed. "I am wilder than her. What about me?"
"I just like you a lot. I don't know why. You are perfect for me." He smirked.
Sang Qian smiled," then keep waiting. I think you're not the one for me."
He frowned. "That hurts."
"Exactly." Her words were strange. She implied something and he knew it. Sang Qian raised her brows.
He swirled her around, and everyone changed their positions. Sang Qian was now in Wang Zhao's arms. Her breath hitched with the sudden interaction.
She gulped lightly. Her expression was rather a nervous one. Wang Zhao's one hand traveled to her back and one intertwined with hers.
She blinked. "I didn't know we were meant to switch places." She stammered.
"Are you nervous? Why?" Wang Zhao asked with a sceptical look.
She shook her head regaining her composure. "Nothing, just surprised. Well congratulations, you're getting engaged." She changed the subject in a single second.
He smiled and just then he noticed they were too close Li Zinhuo and Mi Chan. He stepped back and instinctively pulled her closer. She gulped lightly. "I look that beautiful, that you have started pulling me closer already?" said Sang Qian, trying to compose her expression.
He scoffed. "Keep dreaming Sang Qian."
"It feels good to have a normal conversation with you. Well, how have you been?" She looked in his eyes.
He raised a brow. "I have been doing really well, thanks to the coffee you made that day, it was so fantastic that I have had energy up till now."
She chuckled. "I can cast a spell on anyone Mr Wang Zhao."
"But you failed to cast it on me."
"I never tried to."
"Its too late anyways."
She took a short pause. Her eyes were glazed with a devilish glint. "You never know."
Wang Zhao swirled her around and the lights turned down.
Her heart was unintentionally pounding in her chest. She had never been so close to him before. Wang Zhao's eyes were on her and she was not used to it. Little did she know, he had caught her blushing.
She looked down not knowing what else to say.
Wang Zhao on the other hand himself couldn't understand the sudden interaction made him feel things.
He could only stare at her face. He had rarely seen her getting nervous. His hand touched her back and he could not focus anywhere else.
He swayed her around and definitely didn't miss that smile on her lips when she winked at Ji Jin.
She looked up at him, he could smell her scent, so dark. He thought about their interactions before. If anything was to happen between them, why was it now?
He sighed and shook the thoughts aside. He swirled around her once again, it was finally turn to switch places again.

Li Zinhuo tried to concentrate on Ji Jin but his eyes traveled back to Mi Chan. Ji Jin noticed this and smiled. "One sided love is always tough." He frowned. "Uhm?"
He turned to look at the beautiful woman. She looked in Wang Yuhan's direction. "I love someone too. But I just can't ever tell him."
Li Zinhuo was surprised. "I see. He is indeed charming. Well when did it start if I may ask?"
"Its been a few years."
"Well, you can still have him. You look sexy enough to make him jealous today. Can't you see him stealing glances at you?"
Ji Jin chuckled. "He won't, after-all, he is with a woman he likes."
Li Zinhuo swirled her around. "Well, he likes her. It isn't love yet. In my case its too late."
"I can see that. But you never know."
"But if we both end up losing them, I am ready to make things work with you."
"Are you flirting with me?" She blushed.
He smiled. "Yes, you made me smile, thats rare."
Ji Jin nodded. "Same goes for you. By the way I am Ji Jin, you might have heard about me."
Li Zinhuo frowned. "Oh sure I did. You are this beautiful? Yuhan never mentions you are."
She shrugged. "He only finds Qian beautiful."
Li Zinhuo smirked when an Idea popped in his brain. "I can help you with something." She frowned and before she knew, he swirled her around and everyone switched places.
The next moment, Wang Yuhan held her in his arms. His eyes peered at her and she turned numb from sudden surprise.
Her heart thundered in her chest. "Yuhan!" She exclaimed and smiled awkwardly. His hand traveled to her bare back. She looked down, not knowing what to do.
Her ears turned red. The lights were not turned down yet so it was clear that he noticed it too. He stared at her and due to their height difference he easily towered her.
His hand stroked her forearm before he held her hand. She gulped at the sensation. She looked up, she saw a weird emotion in his eyes. Was that anger? She frowned.
He didn't say a thing. He saw just staring at her making her dance. She tried to lighten the awkward situation. "Am I looking that beautiful today?"
"Why didn't you tell me you loved me?"
