Chapter 431
After walking for less than a minute, she seemed to have thought of something. She blushed and stood next to Orson, stretched out her hands to hold Orson's arm.
"Uh... what are you..."
"Let's get used to it in advance. I don't mean anything else." Lianka said softly.
"By the way, Orson, can you dance?"
"Well, I'm still good at dancing." Orson said.
As a noble, dancing is a compulsory etiquette course. In social occasions such as banquets, you occasionally need to stand up and dance to liven up the atmosphere.
Of course, in this era, the dance of the nobles was basically to a fixed beat, similar to a waltz, and it was not difficult to dance to it.
Compared with the appreciation of theater dance, this kind of dance pays more attention to elegance and propriety. As long as there are no problems with the pace and rhythm, there is basically nothing wrong.
"That's good." After hearing this, Lianka breathed a sigh of relief.
It would be a bit troublesome if Orson couldn't even dance. After all, he doesn't dance very much. When the time comes on the dance floor, the two aliens will definitely be looked down upon with contempt by others.
Finally, they arrived at a high-end restaurant in the college. At this moment, through the window, the two of them could see a large number of people gathering in the restaurant.
"This restaurant has two floors. We are on the second floor." Lianka said and walked in with Orson.
The first-year students had only seen Orson in some public places, and since Orson was wearing a mask at the moment, no one recognized Orson.
On the contrary, it was Lianka next to her. Because she was relatively famous in the first grade, someone took the initiative to say hello to Lianka as soon as she entered the restaurant.
Seeing that they all had this reaction, Orson was quite satisfied.
Since no one has discovered him now, he should be able to spend the night smoothly.
After arriving on the second floor, several more girls approached Lianka, who seemed to be Lianka's classmates.
"Hey, Lianka, the dance partner next to you doesn't seem to be from our class?" A girl with short chestnut hair stepped forward curiously and asked.
"It's true that they are not from our class. After all, I don't like the people in our class either." Lianka said proudly.
"Hey~?" The girl with short chestnut hair lengthened her tone curiously, then moved closer to Lianka and whispered:
"Well, Lianka, do you mind if we exchange dance partners? I see that your dance partner has a pretty good figure and looks like he is definitely a handsome guy. My dance partner is not bad either. I got semen from a cowherd shop outside the school. Carefully selected.”
"How about it, do you want to think about it?" the girl said, pointing to a man not far away. The man was obviously very open-minded and blinked directly in the direction of several people.
"Forget it, forget it." Lianka shook her head. "I still think my dance partner is better."
With that said, Lianka leaned closer to Orson.
"Hmm." The chestnut-haired girl obviously felt a little bored. "Lianka, you are so conservative."
"...Maybe." Lianka nodded.
"Forget it." The girl said this and raised her head to look at Orson.
"This little brother, could you please leave me your contact information?"
Lianka just looked at Orson, a little nervous, and her hands involuntarily tightened Orson's sleeves.
But Orson just shook his head indifferently and refused to say a word.
"...It's so boring." The chestnut-haired girl said this and looked at Lianka again.
"In a sense, you two really fit together."
After saying this, she turned and left.
Orson saw that her dance partner took the initiative to come up to her, hugged her waist, and whispered something in her ear to soothe her emotions.
He even turned around and cast an apologetic look at himself.
To a certain extent, these people in the service industry do know better than those young ladies what it means to be human and sophisticated.
At least his look had saved the girl a lot of trouble.
"Okay, don't pay attention to her. She is usually like that kind of social butterfly, having more fun than anyone else." Lianka said this, and actually took the initiative to comfort Orson, and then took the initiative to hold Orson's hand. , took Orson to a seat by the window.
"Let me say, Lianka, can this kind of place and this kind of activities really cultivate your social skills?" Orson asked doubtfully.
"In my opinion, this kind of masquerade is just a chance for those aristocratic young ladies who are addicted to pleasure to relax. If you like these and are adaptable to them, of course you can deal with this group of people, but I can feel that, You don’t like this aristocratic social atmosphere.”
"Well..." Lianka was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then blushed and lowered her head.
"I just want to come and see with you... I feel more at ease with you by my side..."
But Orson didn't hear the girl's thin voice clearly.
"Lianka, what did you just say?"
"Nothing." Lianka shook her head quickly, and then stood up.
"Then since you don't like the environment here, Orson, let's eat something nearby. I'll go get you something first." Lianka quickly got up and ran away, going to the dining area to get some food. and snacks.
When she came back again, Orson was surrounded by several little girls.
"Sir, I wonder if I can have the honor to invite you to dance with me on stage?" A pink-haired girl looked at Orson and said with a smile.
The girl's figure was not bad, and her face was covered by a mask, but from the half of her face that was exposed, it can be seen that the other party's foundation was not bad.
It is reasonable that no one would refuse such a girl's invitation, but Orson just shook his head.
"Sorry, I have a partner."
"Ah, sir, you should not know the rules of this dance. In fact, the partner is just a condition for entering. When you come here, the partners can completely separate and find new partners to dance. It doesn't mean that you can only dance with your own partner." The girl said this, as if she was still fighting for it.
"So that's the case. Thank you for your reminder, but I'm sorry, I don't want to dance now." Orson said this and politely rejected the other party.
"Really? That's a pity. I was still thinking about dancing with you and spending a good night together." Hearing this, the girl could only shake her head.
At this time, Lianka also returned to Orson.
"You approached me without permission when I was away and tried to seduce my dance partner. Did you go too far?" Lianka did not indulge the other party, but confronted him directly.
Chapter 59: Rosalin
"Oh, who was it? It turned out to be Lianka, the second in the first grade." The pink-haired girl seemed to know Lianka, so familiar with her that she could recognize her even if she was wearing a mask.
"Rosalin, isn't it a bit too much for you to do this?" Lianka said, frowning and looking at the girl named Rosalin.
"Sorry~" Rosalin said this, clasping her hands together, and her attitude looked very sincere.
"I just saw this gentleman leaning against the wall alone, so I wanted to invite him. But it seems that as a dance partner, you, Lianka, didn't tell this gentleman all the information about the dance..."
"That's... that's what I forgot, and it has nothing to do with you, right?"
"That's true." Rosalin nodded, then smiled and left with her little followers.
Lianka sat down angrily, and then put the plate in front of Orson.
"The girl named Rosalin looks quite unusual, but I don't think I've heard her name before, Lianka, are you familiar with her?"
"It can be considered as a kind of." Lianka nodded. "Rosalin is the third in the enrollment, so I always think that I, Lit, am an eyesore."
"But this person has good communication skills. Her father is a general of the empire. It can be regarded as a military officer family. Although it is not hereditary, there are still many small nobles around him who are flattering."
"So that's the case..." Orson heard this and nodded, then remembered the current generals of the empire.
"Is she the daughter of General Scaloni, nicknamed the White Knight? After thinking about it, it seems that only his age matches."
"Yeah." Lianka nodded.
Although this kind of military officer family is not a hereditary noble at present, it has potential.
Like Orson's family, Lucius was also a military officer, but later became the new duke.
Before Lucius, if a senior military officer like a general could enter the upper echelons of the empire, when he retired, if he did not have a fief, he would basically get a fief and become an earl or baron.
Although the feudal system is adopted, the land of the empire has not remained unchanged for thousands of years.
Sometimes, the nobles who rule a piece of land have no descendants, or have committed serious crimes, and the land will return to the hands of the royal family. The royal family will basically reward this kind of land to meritorious people in the end, and the first choice is the generals who fought for the empire.
Orson picked up a bamboo stick, pierced a piece of fruit and put it into his mouth to chew.
"Speaking of which, Orson, you are really popular. When you just came in, someone wanted to invite you. After I left for a while, someone else found you."
"Maybe... I am too charming? Those innocent girls can't walk as soon as they see me?"
"Bah, shameless." Li'anka cursed in a low voice, and then ate the food on her plate.
At this time, the atmosphere of the dance party gradually became lively.
Many people have walked to the center of the stage and started dancing to the music.
"Orson, do you want to... try it together?" At this time, Li'anka also plucked up the courage to ask Orson.
"Okay, I have no objection." Orson nodded, and then stood up.
"But let me make it clear first, if you don't dance well or are laughed at by people around you, don't blame me."
"No, I don't dance very well either..." Li'anka was not as arrogant as before this time, but became polite with a flushed cheek.
After the song ended, the two walked onto the stage together, and the next song was about to begin.
Orson reached out and held Lianka's hand with one hand, and the other hand around her waist.
This common dance move made Lianka blush and her heart beat fast.
"Lianka? Are you uncomfortable?" Feeling Lianka's body slightly stiff in his arms, Orson looked at her in confusion.
"No...no." Lianka shook her head. "I just...suddenly forgot how to move..."
At this moment, Lianka was so nervous that she had forgotten all the dance steps she had learned temporarily.
In desperation, Orson could only whisper in her ear: "Then, Lianka, just follow my rhythm later."
"Okay, okay." Lianka nodded with a red face.
Then, the prelude of the music slowly sounded, and everyone on the stage started moving, including Orson's group.
Lianka followed Orson's guidance and slowly adapted to the rhythm, and her nervous mood calmed down.
Sure enough, Orson has a kind of power that makes people feel at ease.
Just as Lianka was thinking this, she raised her head and looked at Orson's profile.
So, is Orson so handsome?
In an instant, Lianka blushed again and her heart beat.
The steps that had just been led by Orson became messy again, and she even stepped on Orson a few times.
"Yes... I'm sorry." Lianka apologized quickly.
But Orson did not respond to Lianka, but just slightly forced her upper body to move her steps again along with her upper body.
"That's all." When the two of them matched their rhythms again, Orson spoke.
He didn't mention that Lianka had stepped on him several times.
"Just now, you seemed nervous again, what happened?"
"I..." Although Lianka's heart was still pounding at this moment,
After the song ended, Orson and Lianka walked off the stage.
"I'm sorry, Orson, I was too nervous just now."
"It's okay." Orson shook his head. "You probably don't like dancing very much, do you?"
"Indeed." Lianka nodded.
If it wasn't for being with Orson, she would definitely not go on stage.
At this time, several girls came up.
"Hey? Lianka classmate, long time no see, do you still remember us?"
"Uh, who are you?"
"Oh, it's only been a few days and you forgot about us, come on, let's go chat, we have some new drinks." Several girls said this, pretending to take Lianka away.
Seeing the other party so enthusiastic, Lianka didn't know how to refuse, and could only look to Orson for help.
"Okay, Lianka, go and chat with your friends. Isn't this dance also for the purpose of cultivating your communication skills?" Orson said with a smile.
"Ah, this guy is very sensible, but unfortunately, we are a group of girls chatting, there may be some private topics, and we can't bring you along~" a girl said in a sweet voice.
Then, several people took Lianka aside.
