Ye Sijue watched Annie leave, his courteous smiling face turning grave all of a sudden.
He followed after them immediately.
Tian Yunxin was left behind.
It wasn't until Duke Berg finished speaking and the music started playing again that she regained her senses.
When she instinctively located Ye Sijue, she could clearly see Ye Sijue's gaze riveted on Annie.
For some reason, Tian Yunxin trembled unconsciously as she felt an indescribable loneliness.
She instinctively retreated a step, afraid to go up to him.
At the center of the banquet hall, guests danced together in pairs.
Annie stood to the side of the dance floor. She could clearly feel a scorching, yet chilly gaze staring at her from behind.
Her heart trembled. Her little hand tugged at Chris's shirt as she leaned over to him.
"Chris, I'm a bit…"
She wanted to say that she was a little unwell and wanted to leave first.
