After dark, everyone gathered at the ball hall to attend the masquerade dancing party.
Dressed in a long silver dress and wearing a sliver mask, Sophia looked like a demon in the dark sky. On the other side, Lucas was in black, just like the vampire of the West ancient castle.
He was constantly invited to dance with pretty girls, but Sophia politely refused each of them.
"How did you get through all these years? Wherever you go, there are bees and letitias buzzing around you. " She took a sip of the zero degree cocktail, moisturizing her throat, and extremely suspected that he was a God's prank, deliberately created him to tease women.
"Why didn't you show up earlier?" Lucas touched her delicate nose.
"If I had appeared earlier, I might have died." She pouted.
"What do you mean?" He raised his eyebrows and was a little dissatisfied with this title.
"I'm helping you cut the crap. I must be exhausted." As she said, she sighed on purpose, even longer than the end of her trance.
He couldn't help laughing and grabbed her to sit on his lap. "So you poisoned us to make us not interested in other women?"
"That's not enough." She put her hand on his shoulder and blinked her eyes mischievously. "I need to be more vicious. If you can't see, you'll be fine."
"You are the only one in my eyes." He put his lips on hers and kissed her.
"Really?" She raised her eyebrows and fluttered her thick eyelashes mischievously. "I'll play a game. I'll go through the crowd to see if you can find me." Before she finished her words, she jumped up from his legs and quickly disappeared in the dancing crowd.
He smiled, took a sip of champagne and walked into the crowd.
When Sophia had passed through the dance crowd and came to a dim corner, she was looking back to see if Lucas was chasing after her. And a figure rushed to her abruptly and spilled ice water on her dress.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see you." The girl covered her mouth with hand and looked at Sophia in surprise.
"Nothing." Sophia waved her hand. She felt uncomfortable as the water was dripping. So she had to go upstairs to change her clothes.
She put on the clothes she wore in the daytime, hung the wet clothes on the clothes rack and went out.
When she passed by the next room, the door opened. A woman wearing a mask poked her head out. But Sophia couldn't see her face.
"Can you do me a favor?"
Sophia nodded and walked into the room. The woman pointed to the ground and said, "my earrings are missing. Can you help me look for them?"
"Okay." Sophia bent down and started to look for her. Suddenly, she took off the mask and ran out of the door. The door was closed with a crack.
"Hello!" Knowing that she was fooled, Sophia rushed to the door and found that the door was locked.
"What are you doing? Open the door! " Sophia slapped the door with all her strength, but didn't receive any reply. The party was going to end, and no one would come up. She could only wait for the end of the party, unless Lucas came for her.
The woman laughed weirdly before she went to her bedroom and took off her wet clothes. She didn't mind the feeling of being wet. Putting on the mask, she stood in front of the mirror and walked out proudly. From now on, she was Sophia.
In the ball room downstairs, he searched everywhere but didn't find her.
"Where has she been?"
