"Is it just to take care of that child and for no other reason?"
At this moment, seeing the smile on Chen Heng's face, many people had this thought flash through their minds.
They looked at Chen Heng sitting upright in front, with a gentle expression on his face and a handsome appearance. At this moment, they couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration in their hearts.
To be honest, as nobles, the temptations they faced in daily life were unimaginable for ordinary people.
And in such a situation, those who could adhere to their principles and resist the temptations from the outside world were undoubtedly worthy of admiration.
The other party could resist the temptations and even treat a strange little girl gently. He really deserved to be known as Knight Kailin with the noblest moral character.
They sighed in their hearts and couldn't help having this thought at this moment.
No one thought that Chen Heng had any ulterior motives towards Vinaer.
After all, to be honest, among the ladies present, there were some who were superior to her in figure and appearance and also had noble enough identities.
Moreover, many of these people had a good impression of Chen Heng, but they were all politely refused.
Now that the other party accepted the invitation of this little girl, it was obviously just to take care of the little girl's feelings and not for other thoughts.
At this moment, everyone around thought so.
Even Carey didn't think much about it.
Although he knew that Vinaer's identity was not ordinary, firstly, Chen Heng didn't know her identity, and secondly, in the past, Chen Heng had built up his character image so well that he didn't even suspect it in this regard at all.
As for Vinaer, at this moment, her mind was completely blank and her face immediately turned red.
She looked at Chen Heng who stood up in front of her and summoned up her courage to say, "Mr. Kailin... Don't you like me coming to this kind of place?"
"It's not like that."
Chen Heng smiled and said, "It's just that different ages have different things that should be done at those ages."
"For someone of your age, coming to this kind of occasion is a bit too early."
"Of course, these are just suggestions."
He looked at Vinaer in front of him and smiled softly, "As for the specific situation, it depends on your own judgment."
"Others have no right to make decisions for you..."
Looking at Chen Heng and listening to these words, Vinaer was lost in thought.
She had heard similar words from others in the past.
One of her sisters had also said similar words before, but they were much harsher than what Chen Heng said.
But for some reason, when Chen Heng said the same meaning, it didn't make her feel disgusted at all.
She tilted her head, a bit confused.
One hand slowly stretched out and grasped her hand.
Under the envious eyes of many girls, in front of them, Chen Heng got up from where he was and slowly held Vinaer's hand.
They walked forward and went to a corner and began to dance the social dance.
The noble social dance in Kutu Kingdom was quite unique. As a noble, Chen Heng had also learned it on the territory of Baron Kayson, his father, in the past.
Of course, in the past, he seldom danced with others.
So his movements seemed a bit rusty, just as he had said before.
However, although it was rusty, it didn't look ugly.
After all, the so-called dance is just something shown by body movements.
With Chen Heng's current physical quality and body flexibility, if he wanted to, it wouldn't be difficult for him to dance well.
In front of him, Vinaer followed Chen Heng's movements.
In front of Chen Heng, Vinaer moved subconsciously, but her eyes were tightly fixed on Chen Heng, looking at his face, just staring blankly.
It was only after this dance ended that she managed to come back to her senses.
"It's over."
Chen Heng smiled gently, but didn't let go of her hand immediately. Instead, he just held her hand like this and led her to walk slowly.
"It's getting late."
Looking at Vinaer, he smiled and said, "Remember to go to bed early when you go back."
After the words fell, he let go of Vinaer's hand, gave a polite greeting, and then turned around and walked towards his seat.
Vinaer walked to her seat in a daze.
All the way, she subconsciously recalled the feeling just now.
The feeling of her palm touching his just now could still be clearly remembered. Although it was just a brief moment, his appearance was engraved in her mind and couldn't be forgotten at all.
Vinaer was still recalling that feeling just now and hadn't come back to her senses yet.
She just walked towards her seat subconsciously.
Clatter...
A light sound came from the side. The sound was very clear, somewhat like the sound of a long sword being drawn out of its sheath.
"Be careful!!"
Shouts rang out one after another, accompanied by girls' screams and panicked cries.
Hearing these sounds, Vinaer turned around subconsciously.
A silver long sword came into view, quickly approaching her and rushing towards her at high speed.
"Who?!"
The threat of death emerged.
At this moment, Vinaer's heart seemed to stop beating, and her whole body turned icy cold.
The threat of death emerged in her mind, and then the sense of fear kept emerging, making her almost suffocate at this moment.
Suddenly, in front of her, a maid in a gray robe, who seemed rather ordinary at first glance, suddenly pulled out a dagger and rushed towards Vinaer quickly.
And around them, more people were gathering here, with sharp eyes full of murderous intent tightly fixed on Vinaer.
"Are they going to kill me?"
"Why?"
Vinaer was icy cold all over. At this moment, this thought flashed through her mind and her mind went blank.
The reactions of these people were really too fast, so fast that she couldn't react at all. Facing this sudden threat at this time, she didn't have time to make any response at all.
Those people rushed over quickly, and it seemed that they were about to reach her in an instant.
Fortunately, at this time, someone finally took action.
Clatter...
Light sounds cut through the air around them and rang out at this moment.
In an emergency, a hand suddenly stretched out and knocked the dagger away in an instant.
Then, a tall and straight figure blocked in front of Vinaer.
Bang!!
A figure flew backwards quickly.
In just an instant, the assassin's body was knocked away and crashed heavily into the corner.
Chen Heng stood silently in the middle of the crowd.
He stood there, holding Vinaer with one hand and holding a silver long sword in his right arm, which reflected a gleam of light under the dim candlelight.
Around them, several figures rushed out at the same time, and the sound of long swords being drawn out of their sheaths could be heard continuously.
"Be careful!"
Looking at this scene, some people around couldn't help but exclaim, extremely nervous at this moment.
But in the next moment, Chen Heng also started to move.
Standing quietly in place, feeling the movements around him, Chen Heng had a calm expression on his face, looking especially steady at this moment.
In the next moment, he exerted force with his hand, and a powerful force burst out, bringing up a gust of wind. Then, at the same time, he made several sword strikes and directly broke through all the incoming attacks.
Bang!!
Crimson blood splashed around.
Several figures fell to the ground at the same time and crashed directly onto the ground.
Silently, the power of a knight was vividly demonstrated.
During the whole process, he didn't even have any extra movements. With one hand still holding Vinaer, he easily dealt with those assassins.
The people around were a bit astonished looking at Chen Heng at this moment. Even the coldest and most aloof people couldn't help but show admiration when looking at the figure in front at this moment.
"Kailin, my friend, are you okay?"
In front, Carey's voice came.
He walked over with big steps. Looking at Vinaer who was held in Chen Heng's arms at this moment, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and then he opened his mouth to ask, with a livid look on his face.
