Expensive sports cars and cars stopped outside the venue, and the participants wore decent clothes, or talked and laughed together, or walked into the venue with the stars holding the moon.

Dressed women, men in suits and leather shoes, holding their heads high and smiling decently, entered the richly decorated door.

"I'm sorry, please show me the invitation," the exclusive staff outside the door stopped Su Xiaoqi, who wanted to enter.

Su Xiaoqi took out the invitation sticker from her body and showed it to the other party for inspection, and the staff politely smiled and asked her to wait for a while, until Assistant Gu called and checked her identity, and then let her in.

As soon as you enter, you will be greeted by a lavish setting of the reception, with a variety of drinks, vodka, dried white grapes, brandy and ...... A group of well-dressed and successful men toast to the side.

Ever since she came in, the eyes of the others in the room have been looking at this side as if they were nothing, and they are still talking in private, asking each other if anyone knows this young girl.

However, no one rushed forward to ask one or two.

I knew it earlier, so I dressed it well. When I got here, I realized that it was an extraordinary drinking party.

Looking around, there were few guests on the other side of the corridor, and the scattered guests held their glasses and took small sips. She saw Mr. Li walking over in a formal suit, followed by Assistant Gu, who was wearing silver-rimmed glasses that day. Mr. Li looked at her carefully and asked, "This is the first time you have come to this kind of place?"

Su Xiaoqi had no choice but to answer: "Yes." ”

This outfit is unconventional at business auctions and exhibitions, but it's a pity that when it comes here, in the eyes of some people, it is unkempt or impolite, and it is no wonder that the staff does not believe that she is here to attend the reception.

Before coming to the auction reception, she regarded this event as a business auction reception, and this kind of dress is naturally elegant and generous in a business reception or even a high-class venue. It's a pity that today's cocktail party is the social threshold of the French high circle, but fortunately, there are no strict dress codes for the wine party.

Mr. Li said: "Since you have already come, there is no need to be restrained. ”

During the conversation, several high-class people came over to talk to Mr. Li. Su Xiaoqi saw a figure from a distance, put down the wine glass, and said to Mr. Li, "Mr. Li, I'll leave for a while." ”

He turned his head and smiled, and said, "This is a social reception, you don't have to be restrained, after the auction starts, we will enter the venue." ”

"Alice, why are you here?" Donna turned around in her gown.

"I've been commissioned here, what about you?"

"Long story, did you hear all those rumors about me?" Donna said.

Su Xiaoqi was stunned, she just came here today, and she really didn't know what was going on in this circle.

Donna looked at her and asked, "Aren't you here for a high-class party?

"I thought it was a business auction. Her face was blank. In fact, she knew it wasn't from the moment she came in, and she felt that something was wrong when she entered here, including the eyes of the people around her.

Donna blinked and smiled, "I'm a little curious, how did you get here? It's a drinking party that can enter the Parisian high social circles, whether it's socialites or music people, everyone wants to squeeze here, and not many people get invitations." ”

Su Xiaoqi said thoughtfully: "You mean, the people who come here are either rich or expensive?"

Donna nodded and said, "That's basically the case, who sold you such a big favor?"

Su Xiaoqi was about to answer, "You are not welcome in this party. A slightly shrill female voice fell, interrupting their conversation.

A woman dressed in an elegant gown appeared before them, with an arrogant expression, and her dress and jewelry were set with brilliant diamonds. She was not alone, but also had two companions, who were wearing expensive dresses, hair accessories, and luxury brands, all of whom were obviously from extraordinary backgrounds.

The woman at the head has exquisite makeup, brown and blonde curly hair, deep facial features, and looks like she is of French origin. She looked at Donna with a look of pride, and her tone was not good: "If I were you, just be funny and go away." ”

Donna looked at her and slowly asked, "Why?"

The woman looked at them critically and said, "The selection criteria for this auction party are upper-class people who are well-educated, well-educated, and have good tastes. Do women like you think you're qualified to come here?"

She swayed the pale yellow transparent liquid in the cup and said, "Even if you get here by a man, do you think you will be welcomed in the planting place?"

The woman looked haughty and said, "I'll show you a clear path, and if you don't want to be too embarrassed, you should leave now." ”

Donna calmly placed the empty wine glass on the table, ignoring the stunned eyes of those around her. "Miss Rita, I think you want me to leave right away, don't you?"

Rita said, "Yes, I kindly remind you that it is better to leave early, lest you be embarrassed here!"

"Miss Lena," Donna also kept a light smile on her face, polite and polite, and she didn't look angry at all, but Su Xiaoqi could feel the coldness in her eyes. "You come from a famous family, whether it's a piano, you must be good at writing lyrics or songs, if you beat me, I will disappear as you wish......"

The woman frowned slightly and said, "I'm kind enough to remind you, you don't know what to do with a woman!"

Rita felt that this woman should be groveling and begging in front of her, and this was not what such a person should be good at?

Rita is not an ordinary person, she is a dignified lady with a huge family background and business, and a word can influence the decision-making of a large company. "Who do you think you are? Why should I promise you?"

She didn't realize that she had forced Donna to the point of direct confrontation on such an occasion, and she only felt that this woman did not know how to speak out.

"Don't you dare to compare with me?" Donna looked at her, her eyes as light as water, "It seems that you have nothing but a famous background." ”

Rita no longer concealed the disdain in her eyes, "I won't be like some people who are always inferior, what else can I do besides rely on the man next to me?"

"You say, I'm a vase?" Donna smiled, her face becoming brighter and brighter, and picked up the cocktail in her hand, "But, some women, I'm afraid they can't even make a vase." ”

"Hmph, how dare you despise my music and lyrics, and I compare myself to a woman like you?" said Rita.

Donna looked at her calmly and said, "Don't you dare to compete with me openly, do you want to admit that you only have the advantage of being from a famous family?"

"What did you say?" Rita's eyes flashed with flames. I don't know why this woman's face is so thick-skinned? And that confidence to write a war letter to herself from a famous family?

"How about we go to Paris at half past seven on a Friday night, as is French custom, to improvise?" Donna continued.

"Are you worthy?" Rita's expression visibly scoffed, "a woman like you doesn't deserve to touch elegant music." Anyway, you've me off. Not only today, but also in the future, I don't want to see you on any occasion where I appear. ”

Hearing this, Su Xiaoqi frowned and said, "This young lady, on such a grand occasion, even if there is any personal grudge, shouldn't you borrow a place to talk? ”

One of the young women spoke, "What are you, but the same thing as Donna." ”

They have already decided that Donna relied on men to sneak in, so Su Xiaoqi is naturally not a good thing.

The mean and rude words even made the people around him frown slightly.

Su Xiaoqi said: "These young ladies, I don't know what you and Miss Donna have had before, but on such an occasion, especially a noble lady like you, your behavior must be elegant and charming." ”

Indeed, there were already people in the room who looked over the place, wondering what the young women were arguing about.

Despite her haughty temperament, Rita rarely embarrassed others in public, so she snorted coldly, "Humph!" and turned away. The women behind Rita glared at her and left.

Donna lowered her eyelashes and said, "Alice, those rumors are partly true, I did rely on someone to get here, and Mrs. Walder said that I don't have a heart for music, and that all I have in my heart is speculation, which is true. ”

She smiled faintly, "All these years, I have been thinking about showing the man who abandoned our mother and daughter. I vowed to climb to the top one day anyway to show him, I have become such a person, I want to be successful, I have to be famous, I have a lot of money......"

Donna looked at Su Xiaoqi and said, "I'm not a person who doesn't repay my kindness. Alice, if there is a day, I will definitely repay you. ”

Su Xiaoqi didn't know what to say, and gently shook Donna's hand, "Donna, this is your life, remember, be kind to yourself." She wanted to say something, but finally sighed.

The auction was about to start, Su Xiaoqi said goodbye to Donna, walked through a crowd of people, came to Mr. Li's side, and stepped forward to say to him: "I met a friend just now, I talked to her a few more words." ”

"Friends in the music industry?" he asked.

"Yes. ”

She followed Mr. Li and walked to the other side of the venue, when she suddenly heard someone whispering:

"No matter how you look at it, she is not particularly beautiful, although her figure is not too bad, but that face, at most, can only be said to be more than delicate, right?

"Didn't you see that she came with that person? Nature gathers like and people divide into groups. ”

"On this kind of occasion, there are always people who come out with their mistresses, haha. ”

I didn't expect that I would be criticized in this way and implicate the client. Although the upper class will watch people as turkeys, they will talk about a person on important occasions...... A strange feeling rose in my heart, could it be that someone was trying to embarrass me in public?

She remembered the women who had left earlier, and turned back to Mr. Li and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li. ”

Mr. Li glanced at Su Xiaoqi and said slowly, "As a Chinese, it is also the first time I have come here. ”

He put down his glass and said, "I think you should know that this is an important threshold to enter the Parisian high social circle." ”

Mr. Li said: "The person who enters this place must have extraordinary strength, from intelligence to financial resources, otherwise everything is empty talk. ”

Su Xiaoqi's eyes widened, he said, there is no strength here, everything is empty talk?

No matter which way you look at it, she is just an ordinary person, so why did Mr. Li choose herself?

A smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "I have worked hard all these years, and I have also understood a truth." Even if you seem to be a very ordinary passerby at this time, as long as you have enough strength, you can change the rules of the circle. ”

She looked at him and coped with her own strength, did he think she could handle such an occasion?

"You have been commissioned by me, and you need not be afraid. Mr. Li said.

A young man was surrounded by a large crowd as he walked across the venue, and the young man stopped and looked in one direction.

"Mr. Giulinooni, what are you looking at?" asked the man next to the young man.

He glanced at the girl—Cinderella from last time, who was surprised to be in this suit to the reception.

I saw a smile tugging at her lips, or maybe it wasn't just Cinderella.

An upper-class person next to the young man said: "It's really a strange sense of disobedience, I don't think she's an ordinary family, but those girls with a little bit of status, will they be like this?"

"Perhaps. The young man said lightly and walked into the venue.

After a while, another group of people walked in with a person in their arms. As if sensing something, she turned around slowly, and in the shadows of the backlight, she could vaguely draw the delicate facial contours of the young man of yesteryear. The golden hair that reflected the luster fell and fluttered in the ears, and the long eyelashes reflected in the beautiful blue eyes.

There was not a single sound around, and even her own voice seemed to have been lost. The boy stared silently at the front of the venue, not so much looking as his blue eyes, which were just a reflection of things......

I couldn't feel the slightest fluctuation in his eyes, so weak that it was as if she hadn't saved it at all.

The man beside him carefully laughed with him, and the group followed the young man into the hall like the stars holding the moon, and he walked over so carelessly without looking at her or at the people around him,

She knew that sooner or later, she would be a stranger to him, but she didn't expect it to be so soon. People looked at this young man who walked into the field, and they didn't know whether it was because his appearance was too amazing, or because his temperament was too amazing, and he was silent for a while.

"Master Egbert. ”

"Let's go. ”

She lowered her head and looked straight at the cup in her hand, and sure enough, the upper circle or something was not her world.
