Chapter 39 - Tingling sensation

Lu Shang held her close to his body, Lin Lan felt a tingling sensation in her fingertips. She could feel the warmth of his body and smell the hint of cologne on his skin. Everything was going more smoothly and perfectly than she expected.

She could also feel the pounding of his heart as it matched the beat of the music. As they danced, it was as if they were the only two people in the hall but she knew according to Lu Shang's statement that it was the effect of the dance stance.

Lu Shang was silently amazed by the effect of the dance connection, he never expected this in the first place. He only said those words to Lin Lan to clear the suspiciousness in her heart but deep down in him, he knew it was also his first time experiencing such a thing. He had tried out this same particular dance step with a girl named Cora on Earth when he was in college during their school's anniversary celebration but he never felt any sensation. 'Maybe back then, the connection between us wasn't as strong as this,' he sighed in relief.

He only wanted to make Si Guo angry and now he can't stop, only continuing to unleash more steps to blend into dance for better perfection.

As they continued to dance to the rhythm of the music, the people watched them with an interesting look on their faces. Their movements were so fluid and effortless, it was as if they were made for each other. The other dancers in the hall stopped to admire their skill and grace, their eyes following every step and turn. The steps of the other dancers can't be compared to that of their Lu Shang own. Even the musicians seemed entranced by the pair, their music matching the beat of their hearts.

"Lin Lan, remember what I told you. Just allow me to control the dance steps and you follow along with your body" Lu Shang said without stopping.

As they danced, they moved closer together, their bodies almost touching. Lu Shang twirled Lin Lan around, her feet barely touching the ground. Then, with a flourish, he dipped her backward, her hair brushing the floor. She felt a rush of exhilaration as he lifted her back up, their eyes locked together. It was as if time had stopped, and nothing else mattered but the two of them.

Lu Shang let go of her hand and wrapped one of his arms around her waist while tilting her upper body backward in an amazing style that was gorgeous.

Lin Lan felt the sensation surge through her heart, overwhelming her senses. Without thinking, she pulled herself closer to Lu Shang and wrapped her arms around his neck which made people to be shocked over the action of Lin Lan. 

Lin Lan found herself lost in the moment, she was caught up in the magic of the dance and went along with the flow. As the music boomed around them, she felt herself falling larger and deeper into the dancing spell of Lu Shang.

Lu Shang was surprised by the action of Lin Lan, he smiled before continuing his mysterious and unique dance steps that were flawless. Their bodies moved together, vibing as one, their heartbeats synchronized. Uncontrollably, her breast brushed against Lu Shang's chest sending a jolt of electricity sensation down her body because she was already used to the sensation surging through her body, she chose to ignore it without her knowing what just happened.

Because she was putting on a long silver tight gown, her figure was visible and her twin peak tried to force their way out of her chest, but were held in place by the silver gown. Her breast brushed against Lu Shang's chest several times, still, she was immersed in the dance.

As the dance began to become hotter, Lin Lan's breath became ragged and she become more perfect in the steps which made the move go more smoother. She found herself unable to look away from Lu Shang, his gaze holding her captive. She could feel the heat of his body against hers, their movement becoming more entwined. It was as though they were dancing in their private world, oblivious to anything else around them.

As Lin Lan's breast pressed against him, Lu Shang felt a fluttering in his chest. His heart became to race and his face turned crimson when he discovered what was happening, Lin Lan's breast pressing onto his chest. 

Lu Shang struggled to keep his composure, but it was difficult with Lin Lan's body so close to his. He tried to focus on the dance, but his mind kept on wandering to the thoughts of her. It was as if the dancing spell was acting against him.

Lin Lan was able to notice the complicated expression on his face, she looked down and saw what was happening. Just when Lu Shang thought he couldn't take it anymore, Lin Lan pulled back with her face flushed with color. For a moment, neither of them say anything, their eyes locked in a silent exchange. Then, as if nothing had happened, they continued to dance, their steps even more fluid and graceful than before. 

"Are you enjoying it?" Lu Shang asked with an embarrassed look on his face. "Why not?" Lin Lan relied upon.

"Shy boy" Lin Lan mumbled under her breath but was audible for Lu Shang to hear which made his face flush more with embarrassment.

As they danced, Lu Shang lifted Lin Lan off the ground. It was as if she were floating on air, weightless and free. She felt a rush of emotion as he held her close, their hearts beating in unison.

They continued to dance more gracefully.

The dance floor seemed to glow around them, the walls lit up by a thousand twinkling lights. The music swirled around them, a magical melody that filled the room. As the song came to an end, Lu Shang and Lin Lan took the final step and then stop dancing, returning to their normal state.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Jeon Wentian stood up and began to clap, soon the crowd joined in applauding the two. "Brother Shang, you have truly broadened my instinct. You're such a good dancer," Wentian said with a smile on his face.

"Don't say that, brother Wentian. Just a normal thing" Lu Shang replied. "Are you sure of that? Hope you're going to teach those wonderful dance steps of yours?" Wentian said with a classy smile.

"Why would I restrict myself from teaching you?" 

"Okay then" Wentian sat down with his eyes on Lu Shang.

Lin Lan felt a sense of pride and accomplishment, knowing that she and Lu Shang had created something truly special together.

The crowd around them erupted in applause, their voices blending in a chorus of approval.

Within a dark corner in the hall, nobody noticed a figure cloaked in a black robe silently standing there without any presence sense around him.

The figure's eyes were focused on a particular person and no other person than Lu Shang. A malicious intent could be felt around him but was controlled perfectly well by him. His eyes were red and killing intents were dancing within.

"Time for me to accomplish this mission once and for all," The cold voice of the figure ranged out.
