Chapter III was describing the ball that the Bennet girls attended. There, they got a chance to meet Mr. Bingley and dance with him. It talks about Mr. Bingley's manners and who Mr. Bingley danced with. In this chapter, the author, Jane T. Austen focuses on Lizzy the most. While Lizzy's sisters are off dancing, she is moping in the corner because no one has asked her to dance.
Mr. Darcy, a friend of Mr. Bingley's describes Lizzy as, "She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humour at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men"
I understand that Mr. Darcy was talking about her, but I think that moment showed his true colors because of one crucial thing. He was talking right next to Lizzy. Lizzy heard the whole conversation right where she was sitting from. I think it shows that he wants her to know what he is thinking and he doesn't care if she hears or not.
