Curious Tales from the Charity Dance
(Original Title: 慈善跳舞會的珍聞)
It was a lively charity dance that evening. She confidently declared she wouldn’t dance, which naturally puzzled everyone considering how suited she was for it. Indeed, women are graceful dancers, just like her! Curious souls, including Miss Chen, searched for her lost shoe, but to no avail. The most entertaining part was Miss Chen’s animated narration, delivered with such passion, leaving everyone in fits of laughter as they hunted in vain.
