Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 Banquet, gorgeous execution ground

The last three days leading up to the banquet were the most airtight "finishing" Su Wan had experienced since he was thrown into this cage.She no longer had any time of her own, even in that eternal darkness.Bo Jinshen seems to have issued a death order to polish this "work" to the extreme within these 72 hours.The lights in the room were lit up all night like never before, and the nailed wooden wall, in the pale light, like a huge and silent tombstone, always reminded her that her world had long been sealed.An elite team of makeup artists, hairstylists, manner guides, and nutritionists, like a group of efficient and indifferent craftsmen, began to "carve" her.They measured every inch of her body with icy instruments, making the last fractions of a few millimeters for the white gown.They use the most expensive skincare products and essential oils to maintain her skin and hair day and night, ensuring that they shine perfectly under the light.They even controlled her calorie and water intake at every meal, just so that the moment she put on her dress, her figure would reach an almost morbid, photogenic thinness.And Su Wan is the product on the assembly line waiting to leave the factory without any say.She cooperated with all their instructions and was at their mercy.When the makeup artist swept her cheeks with an icy brush, she would smile just the right amount in the "moonlight" style.When the demeanor guide corrects the curvature of her back with a ruler, she will immediately adjust it without any mistakes.Her obedience is chillingly perfect.Only late at night, when everyone left and the room returned to silence, would she take advantage of the dim night light in the bathroom to reach into the mezzanine of the mattress and stroke the rough cardboard over and over again with her fingertips, greedily.Those cold, sharp, hateful lines were the only proof that she was still alive.The night of the banquet.The banquet hall on the top floor of the Yuncheng International Convention and Exhibition Center is full of celebrities and fragrant clothes.The mellowness of top-notch champagne and the whispers of high society hypocrisy float in the air. The huge crystal chandelier illuminates the hall as if it were daytime, and every well-groomed face is adorned with a dripping social smile.The moment Bo Jinshen appeared at the door of the banquet hall with Su Wan in his arms, the continuous hum of the entire hall appeared for three seconds, and there was a strange stagnation that lasted for three seconds.Everyone's eyes were like iron filings attracted by magnets, uncontrollably, focused on the white figure beside the man.It's too similar.Simply ... Same.The girl wore a long white gardenia dress dotted with broken diamonds, and her long black hair was pulled up loosely, revealing a beautiful neck like a swan. She had clear light makeup on her face, her eyebrows were curved, and a faint and alienated smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.That demeanor, that temperament, and even the angle at which she leaned forward slightly when she was held by a man, were the same as the proud woman of heaven who had passed away many years ago, Lu Qingyue.In the crowd, an uncontrollable gasping sound and whispers began to erupt."Oh my God... That's not ... Lu Qingyue? ""How is that possible! Didn't she ... long ago?""Look at the way Mr. Bo looks at her... My God, he actually found a replacement..."It's not just a substitute, it's a resurrection! It's horrible..."Su Wan could feel that countless gazes mixed with astonishment, jealousy, sympathy, and contempt were like countless invisible needles, stabbing her from all directions.The smile on her face did not change at all, and the strength of holding Bo Jinshen's arm was still the degree stipulated in the "guidelines", with dependence and without losing proportion.But only she knew that under her gorgeous dress, her back had already been soaked with a layer of cold sweat.Bo Jinshen seems to be extremely satisfied with this much-anticipated and shocking effect.The curvature of the corners of his mouth evoked a cold smile that was almost imperceptible and belonged to the victor. He lowered his head and, in a gesture that seemed extremely intimate to outsiders, said in a breathy voice in her ear:"Enjoy this stage, my 'moonlight'. Tonight, you are the most perfect work. "She responded softly with a voice that belonged to Lu Qingyue, which she had practiced thousands of times: "Well, with you here, I'm not afraid of anything." "Su Wan's heart sank to the bottom.Perfect lines, perfect acting.At this moment, a discordant voice, with a very aggressive smell of perfume, forced in."Jin Shen, you can count it."The person who came was Shen Manqi.She was wearing a fiery red haute couture dress, flaming red lips, and flamboyant makeup, which was in extremely dazzling contrast to Su Wan's plain whiteness.Shen Manqi was Lu Qingyue's best "best friend" during her lifetime, and she was also a well-known and crazy admirer of Bo Jinshen in the entire upper class circle of Cloud City.Her gaze, like two quenched knives, cut through Su Wan's face inch by inch, and the jealousy and hatred in her eyes almost condensed into substance and gushed out."Yo, who is this?"She pretended to be surprised and looked Su Wan up and down, and the contempt in her tone was not concealed in the slightest."Jin Shen, your taste is really getting more and more chic. Where did you get such a ... Inferior fakes? Wearing a dragon robe doesn't look like a prince, and the small family spirit in his bones can be smelled from 800 meters away. "She didn't speak loudly, but it was just enough to make the circle of people around her who were watching the show hear clearly.In an instant, the surrounding air became thinner.Humiliate.This is the most direct and naked humiliation.Su Wan's nails, in a place where no one could see them, pinched into his palm fiercely.But on her face, she still maintained the perfect expression stipulated in the [Code of Conduct: Provoked Chapter] - it was a smile that belonged to the palace with a hint of confusion and a little tolerance.As if she couldn't understand the malice in the other person's words, she just thought it was a harmless joke.She even tilted her head slightly, and said softly in Lu Qingyue's innocent tone: "Hello, this young lady." I am A Yue. "This reaction undoubtedly added fuel to the fire."Ah Yue?"Shen Manqi seemed to have heard a big joke and laughed sharply."You deserve this name too?!"Her emotions were completely out of control, she picked up a glass of red wine from the tray of the waiter next to her, as if she had tripped under her feet, and the whole person fell in the direction of Su Wan and "accidentally"."Wow—"A whole cup of crimson, cold liquid, impartial, all poured on the chest of Su Wan's pure white dress full of broken diamonds.The dazzling red color quickly blurred on the pure white silk, like a hideous wound that could never heal.Embarrassed, unbearable.Su Wan's body trembled suddenly because of the stimulation of the cold liquid.But she still stood up straight, and the smile on her face didn't even show the slightest crack.It's just that in the depths of those empty eyes, something is completely broken.The surrounding guests let out a depressed exclamation.The eyes of those who are watching the show are getting hotter and hotter.At this moment, a big hand suddenly hugged Su Wan's shoulder.He finally moved.It's thin and deep.He took off his valuable, well-tailored black blazer and draped it over Su Wan's body without any expression, covering the dazzling mess tightly.His movements are fast and neat.In the eyes of outsiders, this is undoubtedly a possessive, ultimate protection.After doing all this, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at Shen Manqi, who was already pale with fright, with those bottomless and temperatureless eyes.His voice was very calm, but it was three points colder than the cold snap in Siberia."My things, when will it be your turn to evaluate and touch them?"A simple sentence, but with the coercion of Mount Tai.Shen Manqi's body trembled violently uncontrollably, her lips trembled, and she couldn't say a word."Get out."Bo Jinshen squeezed out this word from his throat.Shen Manqi seemed to be pardoned, rolled and crawled on the ground, and disappeared into the crowd.Bo Jinshen didn't look at anyone around him anymore, he hugged Su Wan, turned around in the complicated eyes, and walked into a private lounge next to the banquet hall.The door was closed, isolating all sounds from outside."Click."The world instantly became quiet.Su Wan thought that what would be followed would be a rage.Because of her, this "work" made a huge mistake at the acceptance meeting of his achievements.However, Bo Jinshen did not.He just let go of his hand, slowly walked to the wine cabinet in the lounge, and poured himself a glass of whiskey.Then he turned around and leaned against the wine cabinet, looking at her leisurely.That look changed back to the cold gaze of examining the specimen.Just when Su Wan thought he was going to start liquidation, he suddenly pulled her over.His strength was so great that Su Wan was caught off guard, and the whole person crashed into his hard chest. The tip of his nose instantly filled his body with a cold, aggressive taste mixed with tobacco and whiskey.The next second, his hot lips pressed against her ears.His voice was extremely low, like a demonic whisper, with a hint of cruel, creepy laughter."Do you feel it?""The kind of being watched by everyone and wantonly humiliated as a plaything... stigma. "He... He actually ...Su Wan's pupils suddenly contracted."Remember this feeling."His fingers, coldly, stroked her hot cheeks, but they were as strong as iron tongs."Enjoy it.""This is you, trying to have your own thoughts, trying to look out the window, trying to pay attention to those humble lives... What you have to pay is the price. ""I told you that you just need to look at me. But you are disobedient. ""So, I had to ... Teach you with your own hands. "Boom——Su Wan's brain was completely blown to pieces like a thunderbolt.It turns out that all this is not an accident.Originally...That's right.Shen Manqi's provocation, the glass of red wine that was spilled, and even the seemingly perfect heroic rescue he just now...Everything was carefully arranged by him.A ... used to punish her and humiliate her Grand.And she is the pathetic clown who is kept in the dark for everyone to see.The suit he put on her was not protection.It was another heavier, more icy ... Yoke."You are just a shadow."Bo Jinshen's voice was still in her ears, word by word, Ling Chi her last dignity."Shadow is not worthy of feeling, thought, and even more unworthy... with dignity. ""Tonight, it's just the beginning.""Do you remember?"Su Wan stood still, motionless, like a beautiful statue with her soul emptied.She was also wearing his blazer with body temperature.Under the suit, there was a piece of cold and sticky fabric soaked in red wine, which was clinging to her skin.One is cold, the other is hot.Ice and fire intertwined.The last trace of her remaining fantasy was also burned clean.Slowly, she raised her head and looked at the man in front of her, who was as handsome as a god and as cruel as a demon.In her eyes that had imitated Lu Qingyue, with three points of surprise, two points of curiosity, and five points of innocence, all the emotions faded at this moment.Only a piece of ... remainedIt is even more barren and colder than the ice fields of Siberia... Dead.
