"Chairman Lu, apology… but may I dance with this lovely maiden who is with you?" He politely asked Grandpa Lu, flashing his friendly smile.
Grandpa Lu was taken aback to see the person who approached them. For so unknown reason, he was intrigued by this person.
When it ca to beauty, he was not on par with his grandson, Tristan. But he had to admit that his erald eyes looked very enchanting that could make any woman be srized by them.
Grandpa Lu was still assessing the man before him when he heard Zhen-Zhen's soft voice.
"Liam…" Zhen-Zhen mumbled to greet the man.
"Hi Lillie," Liam greeted her back with a bright smile.
Grandpa Lu darted his gaze back and forth between Liam and Zhen-Zhen.
'So they knew each other. Hmm, it seems that my grandson has found a worthy competitor here. Is he interested in my granddaughter-in-law?' Grandpa Lu pondered at that thought.
When Zhen-Zhen noticed Grandpa Lu eyeing Liam, she decided to introduce them to each other.
"Grandpa Lu, this Liam, my History Professor. Liam, I know you already know Chairman, he is Tristan's Grandpa."
Grandpa Lu was surprised when he heard that.
"He already knew your relationship with Tristan?" Grandpa Lu asked her in disbelief.
Zhen-Zhen and Liam nodded their heads as a response to Grandpa Lu's query.
'Oh, at least he already knew that Lillie is already married to my grandson. So I don't have to worry."
With that thought in mind, Grandpa Lu allowed Liam to dance with Zhen-Zhen aka Lillie.
"Thank you, Chairman Lu," Liam thanked Grandpa Lu before Grandpa Lu left the two of them on the dance floor.
Just like Tristan, Liam was wearing a white suit. He was looking gorgeous. He also stood out in the crowd. Many faculty staff and co-teachers of him had a crush on him.
Lots of students were also admiring their professor. He just started teaching at the University of Imperial Knight not long ago but he beca the ultimate crush and most favorite professor of the students right away.
Others couldn't believe that their gorgeous professor, Liam, was dancing with so unknown student whom they didn't even know.
The students around them started talking about Liam and Zhen-Zhen.
"Who is she?"
"She's the usherette of Chairman Lu. I heard she's a first-year student."
"Wow, she's so lucky tonight. She's not that beautiful but she is now dancing with our favorite professor."
"What kind of luck she has?"
"That's true. Argh. I'm jealous. I hope Prof. Liam would also ask to dance with him."
"In your dream, girl. Prof. Liam is friendly but the truth is he is a little bit reserved sotis and he just chooses with whom he wants to interact."
Aside from them, Alicia and Betsy also saw Zhen-Zhen dancing with Liam.
"Oh, my, Alicia… am I really seeing this?" Betsy gasped in surprise.
"Yes, I can also see this. Why is she close with our professor? Everyone is looking at them with envy. I wonder what Lillie has that we don't have. I don't know why she's close with gorgeous n." There's a hint of bitterness in Alicia's voice.
"That's very true. Do you think she's using so love potion? What if she's a witch?" Betsy said randomly.
Alicia looked at her helplessly. "Betsy, your wild imagination is running wild again."
anwhile, Tristan, who was drinking at the bar counter together with Matthew, finally noticed that the partner of his wife on the dance floor was no longer Grandpa Lu.
He spat his drinks upon recognizing the person with Zhen-Zhen. He started cursing. A boiling furry swelled up inside of him. He was mad and very jealous.
"What the hell is he doing there? With my wife?! I should be the one dancing with her, not him." Tristan said through his gritted teeth.
Matthew, on the other hand, followed his line of sight. When he saw Zhen-Zhen and Liam, he understood why Tristan suddenly transford into an angry lion who was ready to leap and crush his prey.
Without further ado, Tristan marched toward Zhen-Zhen and Liam, leaving Matthew on the bar counter. Matthew could only watch him move across the venue.
"Sigh, should I follow him or not? What if he will create a scene and commotion here?" Matthew mumbled to himself.
In the end, he chose to let Tristan do what he wanted. Besides, he knew that Tristan won't do sothing that might cause trouble to Zhen-Zhen.
Matthew continued enjoying his drinks at the bar counter when he noticed that Sophia and Marcus were no longer at their table.
His eyes road around the venue, specifically on the dance floor, hoping that he could see Sophia and Marcus. But he didn't see them.
"I wonder where they are right now," Matthew muttered. He couldn't explain why but he was feeling a little bit uneasy.
After a few attempts of searching for Sophia on the dance floor, Matthew gave up.
"Argh, what am I doing? I'm not a stalker. Why am I looking for her? Maybe she's having fun with Marcus now." After saying that, Matthew just returned to the Bar Counter and continued his drinking session.
It did not take long when three ladies arrived at the bar counter. They asked for three ladies' drinks. They sat down just beside Matthew.
They started talking about soone. At first, Matthew was not paying attention to them. But when he heard two familiar nas, Matthew's attention was caught by them.
Emma: "Do you think Marcus is succeeding in seducing Sophia now?"
Nyka: "Girl, what are you talking about? Marcus doesn't need to seduce her. She's already madly in love with Marcus. Sophia will give in to him willingly."
Emma: "But Sophia is a smart woman. What if she can see through his plan?"
Jade: "Stop talking about them. Besides, you don't have to worry. John and Lester prepared everything. Even Sophia can't say no to my brother, especially if she is under the influence of that drug."
