Chapter 707 Bear Bile, Huo Lichen's Marriage Proposal

• "This is how it should be. Look, so many people envy you. You will become the happiest woman in the country," Siyun Xi said softly. He not only held onto Yan Wan's hand, but also reached out to hold her hand that was sandwiched between them. Holding hands signifies intimacy, while linking arms is merely a gesture of etiquette.
• Suddenly, chaos erupted all around them. Both men and women were shocked and chattering, eagerly scrutinizing the Duke's girlfriend. She looked unfamiliar, but she was undeniably a beautiful woman. With her exquisite appearance and outstanding temperament, she was worthy of being the Duke's companion. It seemed that the royal family was about to have another joyous event.
• Feeling uncomfortable being held, Yan Wan shivered uncomfortably. She was about to break free when she suddenly noticed a sharp and dangerous gaze. Instinctively, she looked up and met Huo Lichen's eyes from a distance. She froze. Huo Lichen's face was terrifyingly dark, and he was enveloped in a black aura that seemed to have crawled up from hell, extremely frightening. Yan Wan swallowed nervously, her heart tightening. She wanted to explain that it wasn't what he saw! But before she could say anything, the lights suddenly dimmed, and the dance floor once again became the only bright spot in the room. Romantic music began to play in the hall. Siyun Xi smiled and said, "Xiao Wan, this dance suits us." After speaking, without giving Yan Wan a chance to agree or refuse, he directly pulled her onto the dance floor.
