After leaving Yin Xi's office, Xiao Yao returned to his residence to prepare his auction for the charity auction party.

In the afternoon, Fang still called and told Xiao Yao about the invitation to the charity auction party, and asked Xiao Yao if he wanted to participate.

"Sister Xi also received an invitation letter, she has already told me about this, and I promised her to go with her at that time. Xiao Yao still said on the phone. has already promised Yin Xi, Xiao Yao naturally replied that he still said that he would participate.

"Got it," Fang still agreed, and continued, "The organizer of this charity auction party also said that in addition to inviting you to attend, I would like to invite you to perform on stage during the dinner, and before the dinner starts, sing a song to the guests present, and ask if you have a suitable new song." This is not written on the invitation letter, they specially called me to tell me, Miss Yin probably doesn't know, right?"

"Singing?" Xiao Yao hesitated, "Do you want to perform a show?"

"Nope. Fang still smiled, "Although there will be other stars in the entertainment industry at that time, the organizer said that this opportunity to be in the limelight will only be given to you." ”

"To be in the limelight, to contribute money and things in the final analysis, is to contribute to the disaster area, what is it to sing on stage? I can't get a penny back to the disaster area, don't do it! I don't want this kind of opportunity to be in the limelight, whoever likes to be in the limelight will go!" Xiao Yao said, "You just told them that I just came back from the disaster area, and my physical condition and voice are not very good, and I can't sing, so I won't perform." ”

"Okay," Fang still smiled bitterly, "I'll just reply to them." ”

"Singing?" After hanging up Fang Yi's phone, Xiao Yao groaned for a while, feeling that in addition to donating, it seemed that he should also write a song for this earthquake disaster.

Two days later, the banquet hall of the Intercontinental Hotel in Shencheng.

This is the venue for the "Polaroid Star Charity Auction Gala", and many media reporters have gathered inside and outside the banquet hall long before the party begins.

Speaking of similar charity auction parties, Xiao Yao has the impression that the highest standard and the most influential in this life in China is the "Lishang Star Charity Night" organized and named by the top fashion magazine "Lishang" in China. Since the fourth session, the number of celebrities participating has exceeded 100, which is similar to the "Bazaar Star Charity Night" in the previous life. However, this year's "Lishang Star Charity Night" was held as early as the first half of the year, and Xiao Yao also received an invitation at that time, but during that time, he happened to go to France to participate in the short film film festival, and he was not in China, so he justifiably refused.

The "Polaroid Star Charity Auction Gala" was organized by "Polaroid", a fashion magazine based in Shencheng. This "Baoli" magazine is one of the main competitors of "Lishang", and it is also backed by a large media group, and its own strength and resources are not worse than "Lishang", but the "charity auction party" is later than "Lishang", and this year is the first attempt.

Although in terms of scale and influence, the charity auction party organized by "Baoli" is not as good as having done five sessions and has made a brand "Lishang", but if you don't talk about the scale and number of people, only from the perspective of the star level attended, it is not much worse than the "Star Charity Night" of "Lishang".

The theme of their charity auction was to raise funds for the earthquake in Wuyou County, Sichuan Province, which had just occurred. The impact of this earthquake is very great, and it is still the focus of events in China, affecting the hearts of many people. So when they sent invitations to many first-line stars in the Chinese entertainment industry, the vast majority of the stars also agreed to attend. Coupled with some celebrity entrepreneurs and celebrities, this less than triple-digit star lineup is definitely enough to attract attention, so there are many media reporters waiting here long before the party starts.

It is also because the theme of their party this time is to raise funds for the earthquake-stricken areas, and the earthquake has just passed, and the rescue operation has just ended, and the number of casualties and property losses counted has made the people of the whole country immersed in a state of grief, and they are not good at holding this party too high-profile and lively.

Since it is charity, of course, there is no problem in finding the media to do publicity and reporting, but they had to cancel the red carpet show when the stars entered the venue, and at the same time, the singing and dancing performances in the opening stage like the charity gala of "Lishang" were basically unprepared, and they only planned to let Xiao Yao go up and sing a song. Xiao Yao, a star who came back from the disaster area, has indeed participated in the rescue work in the disaster area, and it is still different from others, as long as he doesn't sing too happy songs, it is estimated that there will be no problem. After Xiao Yao refused to perform on the grounds that his voice was in a bad state, they simply canceled the opening song and dance performance.

Since there is no red carpet show, there is no waiting area, and the entry of stars is much easier. After getting off at the gate of the hotel, there will be a special staff to guide the stars and lead them into the seats that have been arranged in the banquet hall.

The atmosphere of the entire banquet hall was relatively solemn, and the reporters inside and outside the door of the banquet hall did not shout to attract the attention of the celebrities after seeing them, but just whispered the names of the stars, hoping that they would look at them, so that they could take a few positive photos as much as possible.

"Wow, Xiao Yao is here too!"

"Isn't he in the disaster area?"

"Your news is too closed, the rescue work has all ended, and the troops have withdrawn to the station, how can Xiao Yao still stay there?"

Xiao Yao rarely attends this kind of event, and he doesn't even seem to have attended the award ceremony. ”

"Tonight is to raise funds for the disaster area, he has been in the disaster area for so long, he must feel very deeply, this kind of event will definitely come. ”

Xiao Yao's appearance immediately made the media reporters at the scene make a small discussion.

"Xiao Yao actually came with Yin Xi?"

"The two of them are partnering in a brand, they must have a good relationship, isn't it normal for the two of them to come together?"

"Yin Xi deserves to be a supermodel, and her figure is really good!"

"Xiao Yao standing next to him is not bad at all!"

"I heard that the two are ten years apart, but they seem to be a good match!"

"It's not ten, it's twelve! But the two of them really can't see that big age difference when they walk together. ”

In addition to Xiao Yao, Yin Xi, who has a particularly prominent appearance, is also the focus of attention of media reporters, but when they talk about Yin Xi, they will inevitably bring Xiao Yao next to them.

Xiao Yao is dressed in a black suit, her temperament is calm, and the whole person shows a sense of maturity beyond her age, while Yin Xi is only in her early thirties, or in her prime, she has always been well-maintained as a model, she looks younger than her actual age, and a white dress makes her look younger. Yin Xi is 1.77 meters, although she is wearing 10 cm high heels, she is slightly bent over holding Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao's height is also 1.84 meters, and she is holding her head up. The two walked together, whether it was from the height match or the temperament they exuded, they were very harmonious.

When this pair entered the banquet hall, they not only attracted the attention of media reporters, but also attracted the attention of some guests who arrived first in the banquet hall.

Xiao Yao and Yin Xi walked to their seats under the guidance of the staff and sat down, and before they had time to carefully look at the environment of the venue, someone next to them came to say hello.

"Miss Yin, Bayi, you're here too!" a middle-aged man walked over and patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder.

"Uncle Lin, Aunt Ren, hello. Xiaoyi is also here!" Xiao Yao quickly stood up and said. The person standing in front of him was none other than Lin Qisan's father Lin Shaohua, mother Ren Xuan and sister Lin Xiaoyi.

In fact, Lin Shaohua is a few years older than Xiao Siqi, and it stands to reason that Xiao Yao's close nephews should call him uncle in a proper manner. But Lin Shaohua has always forced Xiao Yao to call him uncle on the grounds that his uncle called him old. Lin Qisan's mother is French, Ren Xuan is just her own Chinese name, just ask Xiao Yao to call her Chinese name, let alone care about the difference between these titles of aunt and aunt. After so many years, Xiao Yao is also used to calling them uncles and aunts.

"Brother Bayi, are you coming with such a beautiful sister, aren't you afraid that Sister Duo'er will be jealous if she finds out?" Lin Xiaoyi said playfully.

Lin Xiaoyi is two years younger than Lin Qisan, although she did not participate in "Where Are You Going, Dad" that year, but she also participated in a lot of private gatherings of five families, and she also knew Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui, Zhou Zhihao, and Sun Tingting, the children who got acquainted in the show back then.

"Little girl, don't talk nonsense!" Lin Shaohua glared at Lin Xiaoyi, and then took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Yin Xi and said, "Miss Yin, I heard that Qisan often goes to your studio, so I don't want to trouble you." ”

"It's okay, you're welcome. Yin Xi stretched out his hand and shook hands with Lin Shaohua and said, "Xiao Yao is my younger brother, and Qi San is Xiao Yao's brother, and he is also my younger brother." ”

"Did you hear that?" Xiao Yao smiled and tapped on Lin Xiaoyi's head, "I see that you are relying on your parents to spoil you, and you are becoming more and more unscrupulous." ”

"Why did my parents spoil me?" Lin Xiaoyi hugged her head and pouted dissatisfiedly.

"You see, your parents didn't bring your brother here, so they only brought you. Isn't it spoiling you?" Xiao Yao said.

"Where? That's my brother who is busy with love and doesn't want to come. Lin Xiaoyi said, "I didn't want to come, but my parents didn't let me be home alone, so they had to take me along." ”

"Okay, okay, or your daughter is intimate, okay?" Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"Dad, can we change to Brother Bayi's table?" Lin Xiaoyi turned his head and asked Lin Shaohua.

"No, these seats are all arranged by people, and it's not easy to change them casually. Lin Shaohua shook his head and said.

Organize a banquet, how to arrange the seats of the guests is also very particular, the people at the same table are generally close to the circle, the class is close, can not be too different, can not be arranged together in a bad personal relationship, if the guests feel very embarrassed, uncomfortable, it is likely that others will not come again next time.

"But our family obviously has a good relationship with Brother Bayi, and they don't know it, why did they arrange us at different tables when arranging?" Lin Xiaoyi also understood some of these truths, so he asked with some doubts.

"It should be for Miss Yin. Lin Shaohua looked at the names of several guests on Xiao Yao's table. Although there is not much contact, Lin Shaohua can also see from those names that this table seems to be basically in the fashion circle.

Xiao Yao has been involved in a lot of circles, not to mention singers and actors, since he exposed his identity as a photographer in the TV show, and then took promotional photos for the national men's basketball team, Xiao Yao has had a lot more contact with the domestic fashion circle, and he can be regarded as entering the domestic fashion circle. Before arranging the seats, the organizers also specially asked Xiao Yao's opinion. Xiao Yao came with Yin Xi, and he didn't want to embarrass Yin Xi, so he replied that according to Yin Xi's arrangement, he could come with her. So this Lin Shaohua really guessed correctly.

"Alright, let's go back first. "It's not appropriate to stand here all the time, and after saying hello, Lin Shaohua is also ready to take his wife and daughter back to his table.

"Goodbye uncle and aunt. Xiao Yao said politely.

"Brother Bayi, I heard my brother say that you bought a warehouse and are going to change it to LOFT, remember to ask me to play when you get it!" Lin Xiaoyi didn't forget to tell when he left.

"No problem, I'll inform your brother when the time comes, and ask your brother to take you with me. Xiao Yao smiled and waved his hand.

"Xiao Yao?" Not long after Lin Shaohua's family left, another acquaintance came over, and this time the person who came was not particularly familiar with Xiao Yao, but it surprised Xiao Yao.

"Sister Ai?" Xiao Yao stood up again and said, "You're here too." ”

"Next week, the ATP Masters will start in Shencheng, and I'm here to compete. Li Ai smiled, "You said that you would go to the scene to watch the game and cheer me on, do you have time next week, do you want me to give you a ticket for my team?"

"I don't know yet," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I'll go back and check the time of your game, if I have time to go, I'll call you and ask you for a ticket?"

"That's okay!" Li Ai smiled and touched his fist with Xiao Yao, said hello to Yin Xi again, and returned to his desk with his farewell.

"You really have a lot of acquaintances," after Xiao Yao sat down again, Yin Xi said to him with a smile, "It seems that I don't need to guarantee you anymore." With your Uncle Lin and this first sister in our Chinese tennis world, no matter what kind of lot you take out, they won't make your face too ugly, right?"

Lin Shaohua, a big-name actor with a salary of millions, will not talk about it. As the first sister in the Chinese tennis world, Li Ai has a lot of endorsements, and her net worth is also very rich. The media reported that she had donated 1 million to the disaster area a few days ago, and it would not be a problem to spend hundreds of thousands more at the auction. Yin Xi had paid attention to the incident at Heathrow Airport and knew that Li Ai had been helped by Xiao Yao, and he would definitely not let Xiao Yao lose face on such an occasion.
