The banquet was coming to a near end.
Su Xiang was munching on some snacks, alone, at one of the dining tables. Her body tensed when she noticed a hard stare directed at her. She spared a glance, finding a young man looking at her unwaveringly.
She looked away, picking up a fork, pretending to be interested in it. After a moment, she put it down, glancing around the room again, and the man still kept his gaze locked on her.
She felt unsteady. From her side-eyed view, she saw him get up, approaching her.
He stalked carefully, stopping right at her feet. It took a moment to look at him. He was an average-looking young man with black hair and restless eyes as if he hadn't slept in days.
"Would you like to dance?" he asked her.
Su Xiang hesitated. She didn't know him, but he seemed to be harmless. Su Xiang nodded slowly as he offered her a hand. She took it, heading with him on the dancefloor.
