Metropolis: My Rising Life

Chapter 544 The oldest family in Europe

After the half-hour cocktail party was over, the lights slowly dimmed, and the accompaniment of the waltz sounded in a melodious melody with the band’s musicians.

In the venue, some elderly elders stepped back, came to the edge of the dance floor and continued to chat quietly, smiling at the situation on the dance floor.

The male and female companions all looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

On this occasion, the male partner and female partner who came with him usually dance the first dance, and then they exchange partners.

This kind of dance partner exchange is very necessary, because it is a dance party, in essence, this is a stage for communication.

Everyone who comes here to participate in the dance party, their purpose is not to dance, but to meet more people and expand their social network.

Therefore, this kind of dance party where political and business leaders will attend, the invitation letter is what many people want to get, and you can become your own noble person by getting to know someone here.

Chen Yi turned his head and looked at Grace who was standing next to him. He stretched out his hand like a gentleman and said elegantly, “…Madam, can you please dance?”

Grace smiled gracefully, she took off her black lace gloves and gently placed her jade hand on Chen Yi’s.

Chen Yi put his arms around her slender waist, clasped her ten fingers, and took a dance step with the accompaniment of the waltz.

“Ryan, your ballroom dance is very good.”

With just a few dance steps, Grace noticed that Chen Yi’s dance style is very standard. It can’t be said to be one of the world’s top dancers, but it can also be close to professionals.

“When I was okay, I learned 800 by myself, and I didn’t expect it to be used by myself. You have to know that in country C, there will be no such complicated prom, and this is not popular there.”

The dance music was melodious, Chen Yi smiled and put his mouth close to Grace’s jade-like earrings, breathing soft heat, watching that ear trembling and dyed with red clouds, it was fun.

There are almost no such dance parties in the country. Young people’s gatherings are just drinking and playing. If it is a gathering of business leaders, they will not go to dance.

Those big guys all have big bellies, who will waltz with you.

However, Chen Yi had anticipated that he might participate in similar dances before, so he used the system to learn specially.

He already has master-class Maga, and his body is very flexible, so he can learn this kind of dance very quickly.

“Self-study?”

Grace asked with interest.

“Yes, whether it is English, French, Japanese, Russian, etc., I learn by myself. I like the joy of working hard on my own and getting knowledge.”

Chen Yi said with a thick skin.

It is true that he can see the experience value, and self-study is of course happier than what the teacher teaches.

“Ryan, you are amazing.”

Grace admired.

Then she smiled playfully, “…Since this is your first time to participate in this kind of dance, how do you feel?”

“To be honest, it doesn’t feel good at all. I’d rather walk with Grace on the streets of Monaco and chat casually, and I don’t like this kind of place full of deals and interests.”

Feeling the fragrance of the princess of Monaco’s soft waist and hair, Chen Yi took a deep breath and smiled.

Noting Chen Yi’s movements, Grace was not ashamed, she nodded and smiled: “…Actually, I don’t like similar dance parties.”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“…It’s pretty good now, there are not many rules, the previous rules are even more troublesome.”

“But as a member of the royal family of Monaco, even if I don’t like it, I still have to participate in this kind of dance.”

“… If Ryan is bored to you, go there to eat and rest soon, and when I finish a few dances, I will accompany you to chat outside.”

Grace said with a smile.

“As a princess, it’s really okay for you to leave the party?”

“It’s okay. I’m not the protagonist of this dance. Just let my parents and elder brothers do the troublesome communication.”

During the chat between the two, the first dance ended. Chen Yi and Grace smiled at each other, holding hands without letting go, and walked to the side of the dance floor.

This is, an equally tall girl came over and greeted Grace, “…Grace, is this your boyfriend?”

This girl is only a little shorter than Grace. She has a very strange appearance. How should I put it? Chen Yi cannot be described as good-looking or not good-looking, but can only be expressed with the word ‘advanced’.

Her face looks like a Renaissance sculpture, with a classical charm.

“Ryan is just a friend from country c I know.”

Grace said unhurriedly.

The girl was still smiling, and blinked at Grace and said, “…Now it’s a friend, maybe it will be a boyfriend in the future, isn’t it?”

“…Hey, handsome guy, my name is Katie Swinton. I am glad to meet you. Our Grace is so beautiful. Are you interested in chasing her? If you miss it, you will regret it.”

The girl is very lively, Chen Yi is not shy, and shook her hand and smiled: “…Ryan, of course you can also call my Chinese name, Chen Yi!”

“Okay, Ryan, do you want to dance with me? Grace, it’s okay for me to borrow your boyfriend for a use?”

The girl named Katie spoke to Chen Yi first, then looked at Grace again, giggling.

“Don’t talk nonsense, okay, Amy.”

Grace shook her head and smiled. She could see that she was very helpless to this girl, and then showed an apologetic look at Chen Yi, saying: “… Then Ryan, you and Katie go dancing? We’ll see you later.”

“no problem.”

Chen Yi nodded.

At this time, the second dance music began. Chen Yi and the girl in front of him who looked classic and full of Renaissance style walked into the dance floor holding hands.

When dancing, she chatted non-stop, full of questions, basically asking how Chen Yi and Grace met and how far they had developed.

Then he also said something about Grace’s hobbies and personality, and asked him to cheer.

This girl really regards Chen Yi as Grace’s suitor.

After the second dance, Chen Yi and Katie left a contact information, that is, seeing her continue to chat with other people, she was really a celebrity.

Chen Yi declined other women’s invitations and walked to the dining area aside.

Pick up the dinner plate and add pan-fried wagyu beef, foie gras, sea bass, and black truffle risotto.

In this kind of dance party, the general requirement is that there should be no more than four kinds of food on the plate, otherwise the dish is too messy to make people feel that you have no education, and then you can’t put too much food.

After choosing the food, I walked to the side to eat elegantly and quietly. The etiquette was perfect, and I couldn’t find any flaws.

After almost half an hour, Chen Yi, who was already fed and drunk, saw Grace walking a little tired. After seeing Chen Yi, she suppressed her exhaustion, smiled, and gathered the hair between her temples. .

“Tired, Grace, do you want something to eat? I’ll get it for you.”

“Thank you, Ryan! Just give me a parmesan cheese ball and chicken breast.”

Chen Yi glanced at Grace’s perfect figure and smiled: “…you really don’t need to lose weight.”

Even so, he helped her take the food.

“Where are you alone? I thought you would chat with Katie.”

Grace took the dinner plate Chen Yi handed her, ate the food gracefully, and spoke at the same time.

“She is a bit too lively, to be honest, I don’t think I can stand it.”

Chen Yi shrugged.

“Haha, Katie is such a character… The Swindon family is one of the three oldest families in Europe and the purest Celtic descent. Her family history is even longer than that of England.”

“…Maybe you are not familiar with Katie, but you may know her aunt, she is an actress.”

Hearing what Grace said, Chen Yi thought for a while, and suddenly said: “…Tilda Swinton, the ancient one in “Doctor Strange”?”

Chen Yi felt that Katie seemed familiar.

And he didn’t expect that the surname Swindon was such an ancient nobleman.

Thinking about it carefully, the name Katie seems to come from Celtic, but now it is used as an English name.

“Well, it’s the ancient one, but I prefer Gabriel in which she played. It’s really dreamlike.”

“…Let’s go, Ryan! Let’s talk outside.”

Grace took Chen Yi’s arm and walked out of the hall with him. .
