During the period of the Republic of China, love affairs did not involve the moral category.
Thousands of years of feudal thinking that men were superior to women was inherited.
Having a group of wives and concubines was not a problem, let alone liking the new and hating the old.
The process of civilization always goes through step by step, and that stage can basically be understood as a transitional period to connect the past and the future.
For those talented men, standing on this historic threshold, their emotional experiences are somewhat embarrassing.
What's more, it's Bai Qihong.
The Paramount Ballroom was eerily quiet.
Because the suitor was Bai Qihong, no one at the table dared to make any noise or even let out a loud voice.
Zhao Yiran looked embarrassed on the stage, but still maintained a generous and decent smile.
Bai Qihong knelt in this circle of light, with a sincere face, and an extremely rare tenderness ignited in the depths of his cold and ruthless eyes; he was like a young man meeting his sweetheart for the first time, saying "marry me" When he spoke these three short, powerful words with subtle meanings, he began to tremble slightly at the end of the sentence, revealing the nervousness beneath his confident appearance.
The number one tycoon in Shanghai who kills without batting an eye is actually nervous But this seems to be the stupid behavior he often makes when facing Zhao Yiran.
Everyone waited with bated breath for Zhao Yiran's reply.
Only Mrs.
Bai's hand holding Hua Ting could not help shaking.
In fact, the answer is not difficult to guess, but is clearly visible.
Based on how well Hua Ting knows Zhao Yiran, she will definitely say "I'm sorry, Mr.
Bai."
With such words, as expected, Zhao Yiran on the stage moved her heart to the letter word for word.
What I thought was expressed.
Everyone present gasped Bai Qihong's rejection can be said to be a great anecdote in Shanghai.
Bai Qihong knelt awkwardly in the circle of light, his eyes calm and shallow, as if he was trying his best to hide the flash of loss in his eyes.
Next to her, Mrs.
Bai pursed her lips vigorously, and Hua Ting sensitively saw the lingering loneliness and exhaustion in her approachable gentleness.
The ballroom was eerily quiet.
Hua Ting looked at this lost and melancholy face, stretched out her hand and shook the cold and sharp-jointed hands comfortingly.
Mrs.
Bai turned back, smiled reassuringly, and patted the back of Hua Ting's hand.
Her eyes were firmer and more indifferent than ever before, "As long as Qihong knows that there is me beside him, that's enough."
Her words were pious.
It's beautiful, straightforward, and not pretentious at all.
The lights in the hall were restored, and Bai Qihong returned to his VIP seat.
But his eyes were still lingering on Zhao Yiran's frown and smile, unable to extricate himself.
Still unwilling to give up, he slowly extended his right hand to Zhao Yiran, who had already walked off the stage, making an invitation to dance.
Zhao Yiran hesitated, then he said: "Since the proposal has been rejected, just dance with me."
She just agreed.
Zhao Yiran wore a red floor-length fishtail skirt.
The beautiful figure and beautiful face are like a carved glass statue.
Her heels today were not too high, and Bai Qihong was wearing a pair of flat cloth shoes.
At this moment, the top of her head just reached Bai Qihong's brow, which made Bai Qihong's aura look shorter.
The melody is charming, the dance steps are graceful, and the swaying of the Sheng and Sheng can easily make people have some romantic thoughts.
Zhao Yiran politely put his hand on his shoulder without looking up at him; although Bai Qihong had one arm around her waist , dancing leisurely with her on the dance floor, but he also felt a strange sense of alienation from her.
He knows.
She wasn't enjoying the dance.
Before the dance ended, Madam Bai never raised her head, but cast her eyes on the short glasses on the table in a daze.
Hua Ting also blamed herself.

If she had known that Bai Qihong would come, she shouldn't have brought Mrs.
Bai to Paramount.
If she goes back now, Mrs.
Bai will be lost for a while.
"How about we go and have a midnight snack?"
Hua Ting suggested.
But Mrs.
Bai replied: "Sit down for a while."
After all, she wanted to stay and see what would happen to Bai Qihong and Zhao Yiran next.
Hua Ting turned her eyes and accidentally glanced at a tall silhouette on the side of the hall door.
After a closer look, it turned out to be him.
Chen Shu and a middle-aged man who looked Japanese were sitting in the elegant seats on the side of the hall door chatting.
He actually saw her early in the morning.
So when she glanced over, she didn't meet her unexpectedly.
He has red lips, fair skin, a slim face, and a gentle temperament.
He wears a dark blue cashmere sweater paired with a long black textured coat.
Her hair is fluffy and soft, her eyes are light-colored, and her whole temperament gives people the impression of being noble yet simple, fashionable but not ostentatious.
She is definitely an eye-catcher among the crowd.
However, it is probably the saddest state between lovers just to have a handsome face but not to use "different ways to seek each other" Hua Ting quickly looked away.
A pot of local chicken porridge suddenly popped into my mind.
Unexpectedly, just two years after traveling to old Shanghai, she was already married.
If her father Bai found out about this, he didn’t know how he would react.
After Bai Qihong and Zhao Yiran finished dancing, the awkwardness was relieved.
He said goodbye to Zhao Yiran gracefully, picked up a gray felt hat on the table and put it on, and walked toward Mrs.
Bai's side.
Walked in the direction.
It turned out that Bai Qihong discovered her early in the morning.
"Let's go."
He gently took Mrs.
Bai's trembling right hand, and his eyes fell on Hua Ting's face, "It's better for you to go back earlier, you are already married, so don't come here anymore.
Plant a place.”
Hua Ting's eyes bypassed him and coincidentally met Zhao Yiran behind him, "I know, I'll go back later."
Bai Qihong didn't take care of her as before, he just gave a few more words and then took Mrs.
Bai's hand and walked out of the Paramount Hall.
He had just proposed to another woman in the middle of the ballroom, and now he was dragging his wife out of the Paramount.
Is he here to be funny?
Hua Ting seemed to be able to guess that tomorrow's newspaper headlines would be full of news.
Wonderful content Zhao Yiran took the wine glass and sat down at Mrs.
Bai's seat.
She did not say a few words like "Happy wedding" as Hua Ting expected, but unexpectedly said: "Why did you marry that person?"
Son of the Director-General of the Shanghai Government” "Uh" actually couldn't answer.
"Where's Chen Shu?"
Zhao Yiran glanced at the private seat on the side of the hall door, and Chen Shu just moved his eyes away, "I really didn't believe it when I first heard the news."
Hua Ting actually smiled, and her brows and eyes were so light that it was hard to tell whether she was happy or angry.
"Aren't you and Chen Shu always together?"

At this moment, Zhao Yiran became less sure, and the last word fell very softly, with a slightly rising tone.
"Isn't he very good now?"
Hua Ting looked solemn and calmly glanced towards the side of the hall door.
"Your father wants you to marry the eldest son of the Jian family, right?"
Zhao Yiran really couldn't think of a more suitable reason for Hua Ting.
Unexpectedly, Hua Ting denied it: "I want to marry him myself."
"But you and Chen Shu?"
Zhao Yiran was so surprised that the liquid in the cup stopped shaking.
"Sister Yiran, some things and some people are not as simple as they seem on the surface.
Chen Shu just taught me such a lesson."
Hua Ting closed her eyelids slightly, her face was calm, and she changed the subject in the next second.
"Sister Yiran, I have something to tell you."
"What's wrong" "Inspector, how are you doing lately?"
Zhao Yiran smoothed his hair in front of his forehead, nodded to her and said, "It's okay, what's wrong?"
"You just rejected Bai Qihong, I had a feeling he would."
Hua Ting recalled the moment Bai Qihong stood up from the circle of light, and the eerie and chilly air that flashed through his eyes was truly heart-stopping.
"My premonitions are always accurate, Sister Yiran."
Zhao Yiran's expression froze.
"The inspector must be careful."
Zhao Yiran put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up in a panic and said, "Hua Ting, thank you for reminding me.
I just thought his attitude was a little too calm."
Zhao Yiran said he was about to leave and walked towards the backstage.
But after two seconds, he turned back and said, "By the way, Shijie and I are also planning to get married next month."
"Ha" a real piece of good news.
"Come for the wedding banquet then, you," she smiled brightly, "and Chen Shu."
Hua Ting was startled.
