Chapter 456 Beating the Drum and Passing the Flowers
Bai Xiaowei looked around secretly across the crowd and inadvertently met the man's gaze.
To Bai Xiaowei now, those affectionate peach blossom eyes were more terrifying than snakes and scorpions.
Her pupils shrank and she instinctively lowered her head to avoid it.
At this moment, the person who was blocking her way disappeared into the distance with a whoosh.
Bai Xiaowei quickly looked up and was surprised to find that everyone had gathered around the round table.
She was left alone there.
Abrupt and embarrassing.
With the help of the maid, Qiao Yuanzhi lit a cigar, took a puff, and then squinted at the stunned Bai Xiaowei.
"Master, is this the new woman you brought back?"
Yuan Yihong glanced at Bai Xiaowei and said, "Yeah."
Qiao Yuanzhi shook his head: "You don't quite understand the rules."
The smile on Yuan Yihong's lips disappeared.
——Although Bai Xiaowei always made him angry, he still felt unhappy subconsciously when he heard someone say bad things about her.
Kong Si saw the expression on his young master's face and winked at a gentle and graceful woman sitting in front of the round table.
The woman was stunned and quickly bowed and nodded.
Then he stood up and walked towards Bai Xiaowei in small steps. When he got close, he started talking in a low voice.
Bai Xiaowei stared blankly at the gentle woman in front of her, not knowing what she was talking about.
Seeing her reaction, the woman paused and tried to switch to Chinese: "Don't stand there, you will be punished. Come with me and sit over there."
Perhaps it was because her voice was too gentle, her expression too mild, and her whole body was filled with obedience, without any aggressiveness, which made people feel less on guard.
Bai Xiaowei's tense nerves relaxed a little, and when the woman reached out to hold her hand, she didn't even think of refusing.
He let her lead him and walked towards the round table.
The woman pulled her to sit down, and the two sat side by side.
The moment she sat down, Bai Xiaowei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the wooden bench was narrow and hard, it gave Bai Xiaowei, whose waist was almost broken, a moment of respite.
She had never felt as happy sitting as she did now.
Seeing Bai Xiaowei holding her waist and sitting down with difficulty, Yuan Yihong's eyes flashed.
Squeamish package.
Soraji looked at Alice and said, "You play the drums."
Alice pouted her lips. Although she was reluctant, she didn't dare to resist.
After throwing the silk flower to someone, she picked up the small drum, walked to a place five steps away from the crowd, and turned her back.
Pass the flower?
Before Bai Xiaowei could figure out the meaning of this game, drums started beating.
As the drum beats, the silk flowers are passed around, either fast or slow.
Bai Xiaowei's heart was in knots again, and the bad feeling in her heart became stronger and stronger. What on earth was the purpose of this game?
It doesn't really have to be a performance.
Seeing the silk flower getting closer and closer to her, Bai Xiaowei's palms became wet with nervousness.
Whatever you do, make sure the flowers don't fall into her hands.
The silk flower was passed to the gentle woman beside her. Bai Xiaowei was about to reach out to take it, but she saw that she was holding the silk flower and had no intention of passing it to her.
Bai Xiaowei: “?”
The woman held the silk flower tenderly in her palm, gently fiddling with the pistil, smoothing out the wrinkles on the petals, closing her eyes and giving it a kiss.
Bai Xiaowei: “!”
The gentle woman finally finished her romance with the silk flower, smiled and stretched out her hand, handing it over.
Bai Xiaowei didn't wait for her to hand it to her. She grabbed it from her hand and didn't want to stay for a second before throwing it to the next person.
huh~~
Scared to death.
Just as the next person got the silk flower, the drum stopped.
Bai Xiaowei's heart immediately started beating rapidly.
If it was just one second later, the silk flower would have fallen into her hands.
She looked apologetically at the woman on her left. She hadn't noticed her before, but now she realized that she was a sweet girl with dimples on her cheeks.
At this moment, there was no annoyance or embarrassment on the girl's face. She held the silk flower with a sweet smile and gently placed it on the round table.
Then he stood up, walked to the main seat, and bowed to Yuan Yihong.
Then she walked straight to the pile of neatly arranged torture instruments, picked up a hammer at random and held it in her hand.
After seeing this, Bai Xiaowei still has something to understand.
I watched helplessly as the delicate girl, holding a hammer, smashed the woman on the ground until blood and flesh flew everywhere.
Bai Xiaowei turned her head weakly and closed her eyes.
In her heart, she kept telling herself to stay calm, stay calm. Now was not the time for her to take the lead.
You need strength to stand out. Without strength, you are just throwing your head away.
The banging sound in her ears continued. Bai Xiaowei suppressed the sadness in her heart, found excuses for herself, and finally chose to protect herself.
She was ashamed of her selfishness and cowardice.
And, deeply despised.
The girl finally finished swinging the sledgehammer, licked the blood on her lips with the tip of her tongue, smiled sweetly at the person in the main seat, and bowed again.
Seeing Yuan Yihong waving his hand gently, she jumped to Alyssa and took the drum and mallet.
The drums sounded again and the silk flowers began to be passed around again.
Bai Xiaowei's eyes followed the beautiful flower.
Where she couldn't see, a deep gaze was fixed on her face, tracking her every frown.
When the silk flower was passed to the gentle woman again, without waiting for her to do anything, a hand reached out and snatched the silk flower away.
When she looked up in surprise, the silk flower had already been thrown from Bai Xiaowei's hand into the sweet girl's arms, and then flew away with the sound of drums.
The gentle woman frowned rarely and looked at Bai Xiaowei disapprovingly: "How can you be so rude?"
Bai Xiaowei said nothing, glanced at the gentle woman indifferently, and then turned away to look at Juanhua.
Seeing the indifference in her eyes, the gentle woman softened her tone: "You just came today, there are some rules you don't understand yet. The master is broad-minded and will not argue with you, but you must be sensible and not be willful."
"This silk flower is not just an ordinary silk flower. It has extraordinary meaning. It is a gift from its owner, representing luck and blessing. Every time you touch it, you need to bow down devoutly..."
Bai Xiaowei: "..."
nerve.
The gentle woman observed Bai Xiaowei's expression, and seeing that she was adamant, she not only did not stop talking, but instead increased her tone.
"......Although the current situation is special and the game should be the most important, so we cannot kowtow, it does not mean that you can be contemptuous and behave inappropriately......"
"Besides, don't you want to perform in front of your master? Let your master see your loyalty and submission..."
Bai Xiaowei was extremely annoyed.
It's not like she hadn't thought about just shutting up the chattering woman around her.
But since she sat down, the scrutinizing and evaluating eyes cast upon her made her feel very uncomfortable.
Among these gazes, there was curiosity, contempt, as well as ill intentions and malice.
In this situation, the gentle woman is the only one who shows kindness (?) to her, and she can't make enemies easily.
After several rounds, the silk flower did not fall into Bai Xiaowei's hands.
However, all kinds of cruel punishments were carried out one after another before her eyes.
Whipping, burning, pricking, nail peeling...
The increasingly thick smell of blood in the air and the increasingly weak screams of pain from the woman made Bai Xiaowei feel like her heart was being fried in a frying pan.
She was restless.
Even though she told herself over and over again not to meddle in other people's business, it was not her business and it was not something she had the ability to manage. Although this woman was miserable, she was a stranger to her and it was not her fault.
She is just an ordinary person. She also has her own relatives, lover, and an unborn baby in her belly.
She is not a god.
There is no need to put yourself in danger just to stand up for a stranger.
However, her hands could not stop shaking, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her mind was already in a state of confusion.
In a trance, she ignored the silk flower lingering in the gentle woman's hands.
Just before the drum stopped, a gleam of light flashed in the gentle woman's eyes, and she stepped to the beat of the drum and put the silk flower into Bai Xiaowei's hands.
Then, the drums stopped abruptly.
