"Yeah, no doubt am not, moreover to me, it's better to keep myself busy with those mouth watering delicacies than to waste my time dancing," Lu Shang didn't bother to look at the face of the lady he was talking but rather his gaze was rested upon the foods on the large tables that were close to him.
When people who were around them heard the statement of Lu Shang, they felt ashamed of him. How will an heir of a clan, the most powerful clan at that, be tempted by mere food? Food that he will be able to command the maids of his clan to prepare for him at any time of the day.
Some shake their heads at the silly boldness of Lu Shang being able to talk so bold out in the presence of everyone without caring for what they were going to say about him while some of the young cultivators from the Lu Shang, couldn't help but lower their heads in shame seeing that their very own heir talking crap when the other clans are gathered here… Totally a disgrace.
Lu Shang knew about the fact that others surrounding him were shocked by his statement but why does he have to care? He had the right to do what he wanted. He wasn't going to impress other people just for the sake of a celebration, he was going to impress himself and satisfy his desire to the fullest.
"Truly extraordinary" "This is the first time seeing a guy who isn't interested in ladies" Lin Lan grinned as she spoke, she could see in the eyes of Lu Shang that he was truly disinterested in partaking in the dance. She looked around her and saw that people's gaze were focused on her and Lu Shang.
At first, the people didn't notice her appearance, the spectators took a look at her and only to see a graceful and beautiful silhouette standing there. Her beauty was too captivating, most of the boys looking forgot to take their eyes away from her body.
Words can't be used to describe the wonderful figure of Lin Lan if the beauty of the other girls were to be compared to hers. Then the beauty of the other was inferior in front of her beauty.
That soul-stirring beauty and charming fragileness of Lin Lan caused the hearts of people to bloom with the desire to grab her into their arms.
Even the girls looking at her were envious of her beauty. There was no doubt that this lady was going to become the attention of all the boys in the hall.
The crowd was dumbfounded. "How beautiful."
"Who is that young lady?"
"I don't remember ever hearing that such a beauty was residing in the Lu Clan."
"She is too captivating. Even my heart has been captured and caged by her beauty."
"I wouldn't mind doing any requests of this girl if she agrees to dance with me."
"You're stupid, don't even think of doing that because this girl is mine."
Different voices concerning the beauty of Lin Lan ranged out that even some of the boys had started to argue within themselves on who would approach her first.
Lu Shang decided to take a proper look at the girl who was obstructing him from getting to his destination. His mouth opened wide that an egg would be able to fit into it, an alluring beauty.
What he could see was a beautiful young girl, who would be the same age as him. The beauty of the girl was too catchy to the eyes.
Lu Shang observed the girl with awe, her shiny long dark hair reached down to her back and was styled into pigtails. Her skin was flawless and smooth like a mirror and those eyes of hers will be able to charm anyone.
She had a round-shaped face with attractive almond glitter eyes and tempting pink lips.
She was dressed in a long silver gown but the gown was tight, sticking to her body making her figure visible to everyone which also made the boy's eyes pop with desire for her.
He couldn't find the right word to use and describe this beauty standing in front of him.
He has seen a lot of beauty back on earth but the beauty in front of him couldn't be longer classified as a beauty but the goddess of beauty.
Using only a single gaze to completely study Lin Lan, before taking his eyes off her body not wanting her to notice that he was looking at her. 'Such a beauty. With her beauty alone she will be able to cause great commotion anywhere she goes….. If it was on earth, even the richest person wouldn't mind wasting all his years of hard work on her'
Lin Lan's lips curved into an eerie for a brief moment. "Not bad" She mumbled to herself.
She could feel the lustful gaze of someone directed at her and they couldn't take their eyes off her. Even some of the old men in the hall couldn't resist her beauty.
But as for this young man in front of her, despite the fact that he was a cripple, he didn't even take a look at her twice which caught her unaware. She had never come across any boy who could resist the urge to take his eyes off her body, talk less of saying not interested in her beauty but Lu Shang was able to accomplish this feat and when he looked at her, there wasn't even a lustful look in his eyes.
Lu Shang walked past her and reached out for the table.
"What? What's happening?"
"Lu Shang isn't even interested in that beautiful silhouette, don't tell me is what am thinking?"
"An opportunity presented itself in front of him and he isn't taking advantage of it. This is crazy, why am I not the one in his shoes?" The boys who were watching the two couldn't help but voice out their thoughts with displeased expressions.
Lin Lam was inwardly surprised to see a cripple being able to resist her and even took the motive to walk out of her. She knew if it were any other person in the hall, they would have taken a bold step and tried out a naughty thing with her.
Unknown to her that Lu Shang was amazed and captivated by her beauty, unfortunately, Lu Shang wasn't interested in any lady, what he wanted now was nothing more than to become powerful. What is beauty compared to power? Anyone will be able to get a lot of beauty under his arm as long as he has the power, which beauty wouldn't want to be with someone who has power and everything.
Power is the ultimate lord of this world… even wealth was nothing in front of power, anyone can require wealth is he have the power… So it wasn't surprising that Lu Shang was able to resist her with his sheer willpower.
Lin Lan smiled and continued following behind Lu Shang. 'Indeed an interesting fellow.'
"Is that how you treat a lady that tries to start a conversation with you?" The voice of the girl drifted to the ear of Lu Shang from behind.
'Her again?.... Why is she interested in me?.... Why me out all the boys in this hall?' Lu Shang couldn't believe that the girl wouldn't have a reason she was interested in him.
Lu Shang turned and faced her with a confused expression on his face. "Why are you still talking to me? Am not interested, you can choose to talk to other boys but as for me. Please miss, try to understand me, I want to be alone and enjoy myself to the fullest."
