In this kind of birthday party, the first dance is by the birthday star.

Then everyone joins in to dance; of course, those who can dance, dance, those who can’t, don’t.

Li Mingxi belongs to the ones who can’t dance.

She’d rather stay outside in the breeze than go in and dance absentmindedly.

The beautiful waltz music echoes in the air.

Li Mingxi doesn’t need to turn around to imagine Xiao Lang and Wen Ning dancing.

They must be the perfect match, a golden couple, a heavenly duo.

Thinking of this, Li Mingxi’s grip on the railing tightened.

Then, accidentally, the wine glass in her other hand fell and floated on the sea surface.

Li Mingxi stared at the wine glass on the sea, and only then came back to her senses.

She took a deep breath, silently cursed her own hypocrisy.

She was the one who fiercely pushed Xiao Lang away, refusing him.

Yet the one who doesn’t want him to be with other women is also her.

She truly is selfish...

Li Mingxi gave a bitter smile, then slowly regained her calm demeanor.

”Why aren’t you dancing?” A low voice suddenly rang out.

Li Mingxi was startled.

She turned her head in surprise, seeing Xiao Lang standing beside her.

On the deck, a few people stood in groups of threes and twos, none of them went to dance.

Anyone could move freely, but shouldn’t he be the birthday star’s dance partner, accompanying the birthday star to dance?

Li Mingxi immediately looked towards the banquet hall.

On the stage, dancing with Wen Ning now was her older brother, Wen Peng.

Li Mingxi was a bit puzzled, ”Why are you here?”

Xiao Lang’s face showed no expression: ”You can be here, why can’t I?”

”Aren’t you Wen Ning’s dance partner? You should be by her side, dancing with her.”

”Who said I have to dance with her?”

”But you...”

”I didn’t agree to be her dance partner, I just agreed to dance one song with her.” Xiao Lang explained calmly.

Li Mingxi couldn’t quite pinpoint how she felt inside; she seemed much more relaxed.

”Can I invite you to dance the first song later?” Xiao Lang suddenly asked.

Li Mingxi looked into his deep eyes, almost agreeing.

But thinking about that night when her momentary indulgence further hurt him, she dared not act recklessly.

”You should ask Wen Ning to dance the first song.”

”Why, are you jealous?” Xiao Lang leaned slightly, propping his elbow on the railing, looking at her with a hint of teasing smile.

Li Mingxi gave a charming smile: ”Do I look like I’m jealous?”

”Yeah, you don’t care at all.” Xiao Lang’s voice grew deeper, carrying a faint sadness and loneliness.

”Before, it was you who cared, I didn’t. Now it’s me who cares, and you don’t anymore. I’m always a step late, huh?”

Li Mingxi couldn’t understand his last words.

Xiao Lang looked out at the distant sea: ”I’m willing to accept any punishment, but why sentence me to death?”

Li Mingxi pursed her lips: ”What do you mean by saying this? Are you blaming me?”

Xiao Lang smiled bitterly: ”I don’t mean that.”

Then both of them fell silent, both staring at the distant sea.

Night quietly descended—

The cruise ship was illuminated everywhere with dazzling lights.

The dance in the banquet hall ceased, and many people came to the deck to eat, drink, and chat.

Li Mingxi and Xiao Lang still stood in their place, neither leaving.

Neither wanted to leave...

”Whoosh—bang—”

Suddenly, the first firework blossomed in the sky.
