Chapter 41: The limelight
Food and wine.
Lan Ji wore a bold and avant-garde evening dress, which attracted countless eyeballs, and at the same time, a good figure with bumps and bumps also showed the limelight, which feasted the eyes of the guests.
From the eyes of others, it can be seen that the appreciation and affirmation of Lan Ji not only brought the whole event to a higher level, but also showed the strong financial resources and strength of Qiushi Group, which made Meiru people shine in the past. Although she is not a woman who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, she can't help but be a little vain in the face of everyone's praise and envy.
"Dear guests, relatives and friends, welcome to the 30th anniversary celebration ceremony of Qiushi Group in the midst of your busy schedule. The people who attended the celebration today were ......"
The crisp and sweet voice resounded throughout the party, it was rare to use her heart once, her goodness, her intentions, Qiu Shi could be seen. Xiang Nan also faintly felt the strength of the girl in front of him, from Bogu's collection, clothing selection opinions, to this kind of big scene of talking and laughing, Gu is outstanding.
The feast begins, and the music flows slowly,
Meiru and Qiu Shi walked onto the dance floor and danced their first dance of the night.
"Xiangnan, on such a happy day today, shouldn't we have a good drink."
"Yes, cheers to your success." Sangnam smiled.
For this scheming Lan Ji, he has always shown a lukewarm attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away. Only tonight, whether it was from her appearance or in her ears, the beauty and beauty of women were always a constant topic among men, and it made him feel very happy.
"Really? Then I have to thank the young master for the compliment. I am not honored to be praised by the engineer of the human soul, little woman. ”
The two transparent wine glasses collide with each other, making a nice sound. With the soft and boundless music, and the quiet light, Lan Ji is even more beautiful.
"Come, I'll introduce you."
Lan Ji took Xiang Nan's hand, swayed in front of some businessmen and dignitaries, and talked about everything.
Everyone has everyone's specialty, some people are wonderful, some are eight high, some people can spit lotus, Xiangnan is not mixed in the shopping mall, these people naturally don't know. Lan Ji, who is used to seeing big scenes and has many dealings with these people, is like a fish in water and is very favored.
"President Chen, it's been a long time, and you're still so young."
"Vice Mayor Wang, if you can see you here today, let us shine, you, have a few more drinks."
"Yes, Chairman Zhang, how could I forget you, you are the treasure of our city, okay, when you celebrate, I will definitely go."
"Yes, I've been busy lately, isn't this the noble son of the Qiushi Group next to me? It's really better to see than to hear, young and promising. ”
"Thank you, is President Chen willing to see the banquet with his face, and I will toast you on behalf of my father."
"Minister Wang, it's such an honor to meet you here, I heard that you went abroad some time ago, why didn't you come back and didn't notify me to pick you up?"
"How dare you, you are the flower of our city, who is this?"
"Let me introduce you, this is the famous Xiangnan son of our Qiushi Group."
"Yes, I'm Xiangnan, please give me a lot of advice."
"Well, I like young people like you, neat and neat, like your dad. Haha, the future is bright. ”
"Hey, do you see, how can this Lan Ji be with the eldest young master of the Xiang family."
"I can't see it yet, looking at the intimacy of the two of them, there must be a leg."
"I can't."
"What can't be. I think it's just that who is this Lan Ji, a courtesan in Pingyang City, a lover who loves one. ”
"Shhhhh It seems that we are like the chief housemaids. ”
"It's no secret that there's something. But this Xiangnan looks pretty good, looks dignified, a talent, it's a pity. ”
"It's a pity, I think they're quite a good match together. You tell me? ”
"Well, yes, what a good pair, a man with a rich woman and a beautiful woman, if they can come together, it can be described as a golden boy and a girl, a perfect match."
"No, this Lan Ji is not only good-looking, but also has a prominent family background, and it is also a blessing in fate for anyone to marry her. She's got her eyes high. ”
"No, some time ago, I heard that the eldest son of the Finance Bureau wanted to make friends with her, but she refused stubbornly, and the victim touched her nose. She, like a proud peacock, proud, as if none of these ordinary young men were worthy of her. ”
"Who makes the family proud of the capital, I think they are a good match. It is said that this Xiangnan is still a returnee. ”
Meiru took the wine glass, standing beside Qiu Shi gracefully, generous and decent, occasionally bored, she would habitually rub the top edge of the goblet with her cardamom-colored index finger, revealing the charm of a noble woman in her graceful demeanor. By Qiushi's side, she is his best embellishment, original, noble, humble, decent, and a collection of all women's beauty.
I think back then, her superior family background made her countless suitors, and even the deputy mayor at that time was also in the ranks of pursuits, but she has always had the pampering of a little woman in her temperament, and she is not used to the intrigue of careerists and conspirators in the political circle. After marrying Qiu Shi, he still lives a life where his fingers are not stained by the spring water, but he is also happy and quiet. I was trying to talk to a few good friends, and I accidentally overheard the internal conversation of these city government family members, and my heart was so beautiful, Xiang Nan always made her proud, if her son really married Lan Ji home, then the reputation of the Qiu Shi Group would be even louder. The alliance between business and government is unstoppable.
Greetings, socializing, holding wine and talking, the busy Qiu Shi turned around and disappeared Meiru, and immediately chased around the fragrant clothes and hairpins, and then followed two steps to catch up. whispered in her ear: "Meiru." ”
"Husband." Meiru still maintained a pure smile and smiled at Qiu Shijiao. Such an occasion is the dream of every woman, she is like a piece of gold, shining under the sun of Qiushi.
"You, you see that there are so many city leaders, successful entrepreneurs in the business community and heads of banks here today, I can't leave here, why don't you go and introduce Xiangnan?"
"That's it? I see you, you're so busy. Look, isn't there someone over there who is introducing him, and I think the effect is much better than if I went there myself. You don't know, I followed him all the way, and my ears were full of praise for him, and I couldn't pretend to be able to do it now. ”
Looking at Meiru's eyes, she saw Lan Ji smiling and chatting enthusiastically with Xiangnan and the bank's Governor Zhang.
Qiu Shi smiled: "You, when will you learn to exaggerate." ”
"Why?" Meiru, who is covered by the color of wine, is like a young girl in the flower season, but she is coquettish beside her husband, "But then again, Lan Ji is always a child from an official family, generous, decent, polite and courteous, and more comfortable on this occasion than those small jasper families of ordinary people." The more I look at it, the more likable it becomes, and standing with our family Xiangnan is really a perfect match. ”
A perfect match? It may be a bit premature to draw such conclusions.
Qiu Shi didn't know whether he could look at the pair of smiling beauties who occupied the scenery in the distance, thoughtfully, I don't know whether I like it or not.
