Bulwark of Light

Chapter 173 Crown and Justice

The music in the living room is soft.

The two figures came to the dance floor hand in hand, dancing to the music.

Many people looked surprised... Basically, the guests present today knew that the protagonist of this free dance was Mrs. Lu Nanzhi, who was about to become the third member of the Metropolitan Councilor, so when they saw the lonely and cold woman who had facial features very similar to Mrs. When she was a woman, she still couldn't help being startled.

Everyone knows more or less what happened many years ago.

Mr. Lu Cheng's youngest daughter has been away from Dadu for many years... To them, it doesn't matter how long Lu Nanjin has been away. Except for Song Ci, the crow, no one is counting the days on their fingers.

The important thing is that she came back.

Reminiscent of the recent turmoil... Lu Nanjin's return to Dadu, does it mean that something has already been foreshadowed?
Song Ci and Lu Nanjin danced on the dance floor.

The two "big men" standing on the second floor looked away and left slowly.

A lot of "spectators" gathered around the dance floor, and they all admired the two people's unskilled dance moves, and showed intoxicated smiles that did not violate the harmony on their faces.

"You stepped on my foot."

Lu Nanjin said softly, "The third time."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but as far as stepping on the foot is concerned, it should be each other..."

Song Ci coughed in a low voice and smiled awkwardly.

He felt that his body was tense, like a stone filled with lead, uncoordinated, his palms were sweating a lot, it was just a dance, and he was even more nervous than fighting with Chen Mei.

"Since I left Dadu, I haven't practiced this useless social art." Lu Nanjin glanced at the dance floor and wrote lightly, "But they will still applaud...it doesn't matter how bad the dance is."

Song Ci was taken aback.

He followed Nan Jin's gaze... Every audience in the audience, familiar and unfamiliar, all had friendly smiles on their faces.

After his wife had finished her speech about running for a councilor, Song Ci suddenly discovered that there were good people around her.

"I originally thought that the old city was the most real world." Song Ci sighed, "But the reality tells me that the upper level of the pyramid in Dadu is far more real than the old city... Now I am a little envious of that guy hiding in the safe passage , that's the most comfortable place for this dance."

Gu Shen, who was hiding in the safe passage, sneezed.

"It's good to get used to it... The top of the pyramid in Dadu is full of bright spotlights, and the set of rules that you sincerely know don't apply here."

"However, in my impression, you are not a man who likes to show off on such occasions." Lu Nanjin asked with a smile, "Why did you take the initiative to invite me to dance?"

This question stopped Song Ci.

He looked at the cold face so close in front of him, and felt that all this was like a dream. He didn't think about anything at the moment of the invitation, but a voice in his subconscious made him stretch out his hand.

So he reached out.

That voice asked him to invite again.

So...there was this funny dance in which the two of them were serious, but still stumbling around.

"I……"

Song Ci thought for a while, but his voice was not sure: "I think, probably because the atmosphere is up, I want to invite you to a dance?"

"It's a pity that I didn't prepare." Lu Nanjin felt a little regretful, "If I practice beforehand, I won't be so embarrassing."

She has always been such a person, pursuing perfection in everything she does, and doing her best in everything she does.

Song Ci also had some regrets.

He never thought that he would dance with Lu Nanjin... If...he did it all over again, he would definitely practice secretly for a long time.

However, if you really practiced for a long time, can you still muster up the courage to send out an invitation?

Some words are obviously only a few words.

It's clearly on the lips.

But I can't say it.

That is the nearness that is far away in the sky, and the distance that is close at hand.

Song Ci's distracted mind was pulled back by a voice of praise——

"However, the brain just collapsed, you did a good job, and it would be even better if you put in a little more effort."

Song Ci couldn't help laughing.

"Actually, that guy called Pi...it doesn't matter what he said to me..."

"I just can't bear his attitude towards you, or I can't bear the appearance of such a noble family son, who is pretentious and speaks frivolously..."

Speaking of this, Song Ci glanced upstairs, saw Zhao Qi's figure, and said seriously: "There seems to be no difference between Zhongzhou and Dongzhou on this point. Seeing this kind of people, I can't help thinking Give him a taste of my size 45 flip flops."

Lu Nanjin also looked at Zhao Qi.

"There is a high probability that this dance will never be finished...I must always take care of my wife's safety." Song Ci's voice was a little regretful.

"Go."

Lu Nanjin let go, the dance music was coming to an end, she didn't care whether the dance could be finished, just as they entered the dance floor not before the dance music started.

There was expected applause all around.

"Although I don't know what the adjudication office's actions are today... But I think you also want to protect the safety of the guests in the auditorium." Song Ci stared at Zhao Qi upstairs, and said in a low voice: "I am only responsible for one thing today. Good lady...just ask if you need my help."

Lu Nanjin stretched out his hand, gently embraced Song Ci's shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "Take care of my sister."

The crow was startled.

He looked at Lu Nanjin... He thought it would be a long time before he heard the word "sister" from Nan Jin.

This is really a familiar and unfamiliar title.

"Don't worry." Song Ci said in a deep voice, "I'm here."

He walked away quickly.

Lu Nanjin walked in the opposite direction... There was applause on the dance floor.

With a calm expression, she looked at those people applauding on the dance floor, feeling a little ironic, this is the object she wanted to protect tonight... They surrounded themselves and praised themselves, not because of this dance, but because they knew their sister He is the third councilor to be elected in the metropolitan area, and he is a student disciple of the chief adjudicator of the adjudication office.

They don't know how many streets there are in the old town, and they don't know what happened to Lion Lane...

Justice was lost in the alley ten years ago.

These people don't remember.

……

……

A forgotten corner of the living room.

Pierre covered his forehead and sat in the dark. When the dance music played, everyone ignored him. The visual focus of the audience was on Lu Nanjin and Song Ci.

Everyone felt that these two were really a good couple.

Only Pierre screamed silently in his heart.

"No...I object!"

A figure came to his side, and said with a light smile: "He is a talented man and a woman, a natural match, is it your turn to object?"

Pierre froze.

He had a feeling that his inner voice had been spoken out.

"However... I also object."

The man said slowly: "I don't like all the people here. They wear magnificent crowns and claim to be justice, light, future and hope, but in fact, they are all broken in their bones. This is really annoying Help guys... what do you think?"
