The red carpet was finally over, and Qiao Duan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, which can be regarded as returning Xi Yingxuan's favor.

Just as she and Xi Yingxuan were about to get off the carpet, there was a sudden sound of inhaling behind them, followed by an exclamation.

"Where did the handsome little guy come from......"

"Qiao's jewelry walked the red carpet, it turned out that Qiao Twilight was not the finale......"

"I love this eclectic red carpet idea!"

"Who, how do I look familiar? The little model please, this look, tsk, is really photogenic. ”

"I also look familiar, why does it look so similar to the one in the Dongcheng Group, could it be ......?"

"Oh my God, isn't this the little prince of the Dongcheng Group?"

"The Fu family has always been very strict with the protection measures for this little young master, why did he suddenly show up today and come to such an occasion? It's incredible. ”

"Hurry, hurry, don't worry about it, don't waste such a good opportunity, take a picture ......"

The reporters kept talking, Qiao Du thought that the child of which family ran to the carpet to make trouble, and was about to call the security guard, when he suddenly heard the words of the little prince of Dongcheng Group, and hurriedly turned around.

I saw that at the end of the long red carpet stood a tall and outstanding figure, with red lips and white teeth, handsome and handsome, a small black dress, a black shirt with the same neckline as Xi Yingxuan's white gold and diamond necklace, and shiny little leather shoes on his feet, facing the camera and the long red carpet without timidity, small thin lips slightly pursed, and long legs as if no one was around.

Not to mention the reporters at the scene, even many female staff members next to them drooled: "Where did Xiao Zhengtai come from, so handsome." ”

"So handsome, so cool, so young and so cool, do you have to grow up?"

"Ah......hh Did you see it, his skin is so tender, so white, so slippery...... I can't do it, my sister really wants to rush up and hug the two of them......"

"Don't be impulsive, this little Zhengtai seems to be from a lot of background, didn't you hear the reporter say that it was the little prince of Dongcheng Group?"

"Dongcheng Group? God, this is the son of the big boss of the Dongcheng Group? No wonder I see how it exudes a kind of nobility from the inside out, and being born with a golden spoon is the same as the temperament of an ordinary child......"

The arrival of Fu Chengrui can be said to have pushed the red carpet to a big climax, and the reporters have always been well-informed, and they have long heard of the outstanding IQ and super high appearance of the future heir of the Fu family.

Of course, at the moment, the reporters were anxious to interview the mysterious little prince and ask him why he appeared here, but before the microphone was handed over, he was blocked back by the bodyguards, and the reporters noticed that the little prince was followed by more than a dozen bodyguards, black and pressed like a prince on patrol, and the pomp was very large.

It seems that the interview is impossible, and the reporters are not disappointed, so many photos can be taken today, especially the little prince of Dongcheng Group, it is too newsworthy.

Why is Fu Chengrui here?

Still walking the red carpet?

"What's going on?" Qiao Du turned his head and asked the high-level next to him, everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know, only one high-level said: "Mr. Qiao, this matter seems to have been arranged by Assistant Huang, you can ask him." ”

Uncle Huang?

Qiao Duan realized that Huang Xin was gone, turned her eyes to look for a while, and found that on the other side of the red carpet, Huang Xin and Qiao Yun were standing there.

Yun'er?

Qiao Du wondered, she didn't arrange for Yun'er to come over at this press conference, today is Monday, he should be in school with Fu Chengrui, why did he appear here?

Feeling that something was wrong, she waited for Fu Chengrui to walk to the end of the red carpet and followed him to Qiao Yun and Huang Xin.

As soon as Qiao Yun saw that Qiao Duan was coming, he hurriedly hid behind Huang Xin.

As soon as she saw her brother like this, Qiao Duan knew that this matter had nothing to do with Qiao Yun, she looked at Fu Chengrui and asked, "Xiao Ruirui, why did you walk the red carpet?" Was it Qiao Yun's idea? ”

"Not me." Qiao Yun shook his hands and hurriedly brushed them off.

Fu Chengrui glanced at Qiao Yun, took the tablet from the bodyguard's hand, and wrote something, and the bodyguard then held it up to Qiao Dui, with a line of words written on it: "The game is lost." ”

"What do you mean when you lose the game?" Qiao Duan asked Qiao Yun.

Qiao Yun couldn't hide it, so he simply came out from behind Huang Xin, scratched his head and laughed proudly: "It's just that the game is lost, I bet with him, whoever loses in the game today has to listen to the winner, and then he loses, I think it's not interesting to be in school, eldest sister, you just happened to be in the development of the life and death of our Qiao family, I told him to let him help walk the red carpet and earn popularity for Qiao's family, and he agreed." I was afraid that you would not agree, so I whispered to Uncle Huang, and Uncle Huang agreed, and he walked the red carpet......"

Qiao Dui: "......"

She was so angry that she didn't know what to say, her younger brother had good intentions, but he didn't know what the consequences were.

The Fu family treats Fu Chengrui's baby like something, and never wants to expose it in front of the media, but it's good for him to take Fu Chengrui to skip school and let Fu Chengrui show up, isn't this tantamount to directly offending the Fu family?

Thinking of this, Qiao Dui was angry.

Huang Xin pulled her aside: "Twilight, I think Qiao Yun has a good idea, quite business-minded, in your words, there are a lot of celebrities today, but none of the important wealthy businessmen attended, Qiao Yun's identity as a classmate does not need me to say, you know, there is him more sensational than his father's effect, it will be difficult for our press conference to make headlines tomorrow." ”

Qiao Wei understood that Huang Xin had made this decision without telling her after careful consideration, and it was already like this, and it would be useless for her to say anything more.

"Okay, I don't blame you, it's still early, hurry back to school." Qiao Du could only say this to the two little ones.

The bodyguard behind Fu Chengrui said with a bitter face: "Miss Qiao, you are right, before the school calls Mr. Fu, little master, hurry up and go back with us." ”

Fu Chengrui's small lips pursed into a straight line, and he did not respond to the bodyguard.

Qiao Yun was very eye-catching, knowing that he was in trouble, he put his arm on Fu Chengrui's shoulder and said to Qiao Dui: "Eldest sister, don't worry, I told him about it, when his father asked, he said that he was coming, and it had nothing to do with me and the Qiao family." ”

Qiao Du lowered his head and pinched his eyebrows, too lazy to argue with his naïve brother, waved his hand and said weakly, "Let's go quickly." ”

The footsteps were far away, and Qiao Duan looked up again to see Fu Chengrui and Qiao Yun walking out surrounded by bodyguards, Qiao Yun talked endlessly, Fu Chengrui was silent, but seemed to listen carefully.

She didn't expect that Qiao Yun was so good at making friends, and she had the ability to get Fu Chengrui to the press conference.

I really don't know if it's luck or misfortune.

The spring rain is still falling.

Qiao Du found that the bodyguards didn't have umbrellas, why didn't Fu Chengrui use an umbrella when she walked the red carpet just now, she subconsciously took away the black wooden-handled umbrella in the umbrella tube, and Qiao Yun was standing next to the umbrella tube just now.

"He's a guest, why don't you know to get him an umbrella?" Qiao Du walked over and glanced at her brother as she handed over her umbrella.

Qiao Yun shouted wronged: "It's not that I don't give it to him, it's that he himself said that he is allergic to some new wood that has been painted, so I didn't give it to him." ”

Qiao Duan's expression froze, she always felt that the information in this sentence was familiar, once, when she and Fu Jingchao were together, she once played puzzles with Fu Chengrui, and afterwards there seemed to be an allergy on her hand, and later she rubbed ointment on him.

She remembers this incident so clearly because she also has such allergies, and she can't touch new wood, especially the kind that has been painted, it is very itchy, and the skin has a rash.

Qiao Dui's delicately drawn eyebrows furrowed silently, and she kept swallowing her saliva, and the previous guess came to her brain again, what does this mean?

Is it a coincidence?

Why does she and Fu Chengrui have the same allergies?

"It doesn't matter if I'm a good father or not, the key is who said that he didn't have a real mother, and his real mother wasn't right in front of him?"

"His mother is in the entertainment industry, and it is normal for him to have literary and artistic cells."

Fu Jingchao's voice sounded like a magic sound.

Especially in the scene of the first sentence, they stood on the stairs that day, facing each other, he said it himself, remembering that Fu Zhixing was in Liuliwan that day, at that time she didn't think about herself at all, she just thought he was talking about Fu Zhixing.

Closing her eyes, she felt breathless, and tried to recall the demeanor and tone of his voice at that time, how wrong she thought.

There are many things in the world like densely wound threads, pulling one and pulling slowly, like peeling off the cocoon, thinking about it is extremely scary, the more I think about it, the more wrong it is, the palms of my hands are sweating, and my heart is beating wildly.

Once again, the bold thought and the wild speculation followed.

Will Fu Chengrui ......

Will...... Actually, it's ...... Her children?

When touched by this unbelievable and unavoidable question, Qiao Dui's whole body was cold, her mind was blank, and she took several steps back, the stiletto heels on her feet stumbled on the thick red carpet, and her body shook as if she was about to fall.

"Sister, be careful." Qiao Yun reacted quickly and stepped forward to grab her arm, so that she was saved from embarrassment.

Qiao Du was too flustered, lowered his head and put his right hand on his forehead to block the eyes that were gradually covered with a layer of mist, and urged unconsciously in his mouth: "Hmm...... Leave me alone, you go back to school. ”

-

Aslant Hotel, power distribution room.

There was no light in the room, and a few people with flashlights in their hands were secretly discussing something inside.

The man in the black beanie was their leader and was on the phone: "Miss Qiao, have you sent the message out?" ”

On the phone, Qiao Xinyi's cold voice came: "It was sent ten minutes ago, and in two minutes, you will act according to the plan." ”

"Understand, Miss Qiao, don't worry, you spend money on our affairs, and we promise to do your business well." The leader smiled flatteringly: "It's that you have to double the money after the deed is done." ”

"This is easy to say, you hurry up." Qiao Xinyi hung up the phone after speaking.

The leader pulled the black beanie hat on his head to his face, revealing two pairs of sleek and fierce eyes, and said to the subordinates next to him, "Start the timer, and break the brake in two minutes." ”

Ten minutes ago, the general manager and deputy general manager of the Aslant Hotel received an anonymous email in their mailboxes, ordering them to stop the Joe's jewelry launch immediately and not to call the police, otherwise the bomb would be detonated in ten minutes.

When they saw this email, the general manager and the deputy general manager were frightened, there were still ten minutes, they had to evacuate everyone in the hotel immediately, today's Qiao's press conference gathered more than 100 people, plus the guests in the hotel, and the staff, hundreds of people had to be evacuated immediately.

While arranging the evacuation task, the hotel immediately contacted Qiao's, and Qiao Duan got the news and immediately took Huang Xin to the general manager's office to check the email.

After reading the email, Qiao Wei and Huang Xin glanced at each other, and her mind was quickly judging whether this was true or false, obviously, this was a threatening email specifically for the press conference, just to make the press conference unable to be held as scheduled.

Who would be the most reluctant to hold a press conference?

The first thing that popped into Qiao Du's mind was Qiao Xinyi.

"Mr. Zhao, I think there are many fake elements in this matter, it is better for you to divide the people in your hands into two groups, one group to check the monitoring to see if there are any suspicious people, and the other group to check the remote places where the hotel can hide, be fast, there are still five minutes." Qiao Dui's voice was not as delicate as usual, and it was a little condensed.

The general manager is well-informed, and when he calms down, he also thinks that there are many pranks, and the Yaslant Hotel is a six-star hotel in Li City, and its security measures are very strict, and everyone who enters the hotel must be tested by electronic equipment, and it is almost impossible to bring explosives in.

One minute, two minutes...... Five minutes, six minutes......

The security guards in the hotel kept calling, looking for them layer by layer, saying that they had not been found.

As soon as I arrived seven minutes, the whole building suddenly lost power, and the general manager's office had several huge windows, which were not affected, but the press conference was not good, because a lot of lights were needed, and without electricity, it was equivalent to no dazzling lights, and it was pitch black, and it could not be held at all.

Qiao Du glanced at her watch, there were still ten minutes before the press conference, what should I do.

The atmosphere was tense, at this moment, the mobile phone on the general manager's desk rang, and after receiving the call, the general manager stood up and kept saying: "Great, great......"

The general manager hung up the phone and said happily: "I found four people who were preparing to escape over the wall in disguise, and I asked the police to call the police immediately." ”

Qiao Du nodded, she didn't expect to catch someone so quickly.

Three minutes later, the police came out and took the four people into the police car.

Soon after, the power supply was restored, and Qiao Du was relieved and returned to the press conference hall.

This new product launch conference Qiao's spent a lot of money to build, the hall was selected in the largest hall of the hotel, different from the previous T runway, this time the stage is circular, lighting and sound effects, beautiful.

Accompanied by light and romantic music, Joe's new High Jewellery collection model show kicked off.

The display on the red carpet is far less than the press conference, and the atmosphere and lighting at the press conference can bring out the dazzling and luxurious beauty of each jewel.

The models for this show are carefully selected supermodels, and the price is high, but at the same time, it is also good value for money, and interprets the passionate and unrestrained atmosphere that the Bloom collection is intended to express, and it blooms like a flower.

Most of the celebrities watching the show offstage are very discerning, and the Bloom jewelry is dazzling, and they are amazed.

Through the display of models, a unique and rare gemstone attracted the attention of the audience, the unique polishing process rejuvenated the jewelry, and the bold and jumping color matching made the jewelry rich and changeable.

Qiao Du was nervous the whole time, her fingers clenched and she didn't dare to relax, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she noticed everyone's focused and amazed gazes.

These are the results of the design department's overtime work for more than half a month, and they are also the works that were revised and finally completed under her supervision throughout the process.

In Huang Xin's words, if Qiao Yuanjing was here, he would never be allowed to make such a bold and outrageous attempt.

The risk of failure is very high, and the cost of a set of jewelry from design to finished product is huge, and Joe cannot afford to take this risk.

She doesn't think so, innovation is the only way to progress, how do you know if you don't try?

Sticking to the rules doesn't seem like a mistake, but it's not competitive in the long run, it's a step backwards.

Like the so-called new products released by Qiao Yuanjing when he was there, there is no innovation, and there are still a lot of backlogs in the warehouse, which is enough to explain some problems.

"Sister, today's press conference is really good, hard work." Qiao Xinyi sat next to her and whispered, "I like several sets of jewelry." ”

Qiao Du pursed her lips lightly: "You have also worked hard." By the way, what about the other four celebrities you invited? Why are you alone? ”

Just a few minutes before the press conference, the police came to the hotel, causing quite a stir, she stood in front of the window and watched the four people being taken into the police car.

She was terrified, she couldn't figure out how such a big hotel, and those people were so well disguised, how they could be easily arrested.

Qiao Xinyi gritted her teeth and looked at Qiao Dui, who was gentle and indifferent on her side, a palpitating panic grabbed her breath, Qiao Twilight changed, no longer the Qiao Twilight who could be easily calculated by her before, the Qiao Twilight in front of her became insidious, cunning, and calm and powerful beyond her imagination.

Bai Muzhi looked at the dazzling jewelry displayed by the models on the stage with wide eyes, are these jewelry that are comparable to international first-line brands really made by the team led by Qiao Dui?

Completely unimaginable.

In his impression, Qiao's family started as a jewelry business, but Qiao Du has not been interested in jewelry since she was a child, and besides, her highest education is only to high school, and her vision and knowledge will not be much better, let alone any business acumen.

To be honest, she took over Qiao's instead of Qiao Xinyi, and he was very unoptimistic.

Qiao Dui was able to make such a high standard of jewelry in just one month, which really made him jaw-dropping.

After being shocked, Bai Muzhi turned his head and suddenly found that Qiao Xinyi's expression was wrong, and vaguely remembered that he seemed to hear something talking about the two sisters in his ear just now, and gently grabbed her hand: "Xinyi, are you arguing with your sister again?" ”

Qiao Xinyi stabbed her face into his arms coquettishly, and her voice was very aggrieved: "Brother Muzhi, I don't want to, my sister is yin and yang every time she speaks, just now I was kind enough to talk to her, and she scolded me again." ”

The lights on the stage emitted warm orange light, and across a Qiao Xinyi, Bai Muzhi looked at Qiao Dui, who was immersed in the quiet atmosphere of time, and his voice was so soft that he couldn't speak: "It's not easy for your sister to manage a Qiao family, and you didn't make such a big press conference when your father was there, it can be seen that your sister is under a lot of pressure, you are her relative, take care of it, she is also fighting for the Qiao family, isn't it?" ”

For the Qiao family?

How could it be, Qiao Dui was just for herself.

The annoyance in Qiao Xinyi's heart deepened.

Halfway through the conference, the scene was very quiet, everyone stared intently at each piece of jewelry, many people whispered, their eyes showed surprise, as if they saw their favorite style.

Qiao Du ignored the hostility emanating from Qiao Xinyi next to her, her mobile phone was pointed at herself, she found a perfect angle, and took a selfie with the text: "Bloom series, do you like it?" ”

As soon as Weibo was posted, netizens who followed the grand occasion of Qiao's jewelry conference left messages below.

"A luxurious aura greeted us, blinding the eyes of mortals like me every minute."

"Goddess, whatever you wear is beautiful."

"This set of jewels is so beautiful, my eyes are shining, how much silver is there?"

"I'll just take a look, haha, the girl who eats soil can't afford it, support the goddess ......"

"Visually, this time Qiao's Jewelry's new series is going to be hot."

……

As on the red carpet, Kwon Youjian and Ye Zili played in the penultimate pair.

The finale was Qiao Du and Xi Yingxuan.

Xi Yingxuan stepped up first, with a lofty and charming smile, confidently and calmly showing the men's white gold diamond necklace around his neck.

Qiao Twilight was the last to walk on the stage, a unique set of ruby jewelry and a black evening dress complemented each other, although she had already walked through the red carpet, it was still elegant and outstanding, and it was amazing, attracting exclamations from the audience, followed by a burst of applause, and many female stars began to ask each other about the price of this set of jewelry in the audience.

Offstage, Qiao Xinyi bit her lip tightly, needless to say, this press conference Qiao Du was an unprecedented success, damn it, these achievements were hers, she should have stood on the stage instead of Qiao Du to enjoy cheers and applause, all of this should belong to her.

All the jewelry at the press conference was made by Qiao's design department, and Qiao Du was nothing remarkable, just a name.

Jealousy made Qiao Xinyi's face extremely distorted, relying on the bright lights on the stage, Qiao Xinyi thought that no one noticed her, but only a few minutes later, a serious voice sounded: "Who is Qiao Xinyi here?" ”

"Xin Yi, someone is calling you." Bai Muzhi reminded her.

Qiao Xinyi subconsciously stood up, two police uniforms came over, and a cold handcuff was handcuffed on her hands: "Qiao Xinyi, you are suspected of instructing others to send threatening emails, and instructing four criminal suspects to cut off the power of the entire hotel, causing panic, now please come back with us." ”

What the?

The power outage before today's press conference was instructed by Qiao Xinyi?

No one expected this to be the case, and in an instant, there was a dead silence in the hall of the press conference.

Qiao Xinyi was stupid, and Bai Muzhi hurriedly stood up: "Comrade police, is there any misunderstanding, there was indeed a power outage here before the press conference, but weren't those people arrested by you?" This matter has nothing to do with my fiancée. ”

"Whether it has anything to do with it, just go back to the police station with us." The two policemen didn't say much and quickly took Qiao Xinyi away.

It happened too quickly, and when Qiao Xinyi and the police walked to the door, everyone's tidal wave of chattering sounded.

Qiao Du also didn't expect the police to come so quickly, fortunately Qiao Xinyi was taken away after the press conference, as for the reason, it is not complicated to think about it, those four people are instructed by others and hired with money, their mouths are naturally not tight, and when they are brought to the police station, they are like pouring beans on a bamboo tube, and everything is recruited.

After Qiao Xinyi was taken away by the police, Bai Muzhi also hurried away, it seemed that he was trying to find a way to catch people.

Such a small episode quickly subsided.

The press conference came to an end, but many guests did not disperse for a long time, and they came to Qiao Du to inquire about the price of their favorite jewelry.

Qiao Du smiled at everyone and shook her head: "I'm sorry, due to the complexity of the process, there is only one set of jewelry on display today, and it will not be sold to the public for the time being, only for the window sample display of Qiao's jewelry head office." If you have a fancy model, you can contact the staff there, you need to book in advance. ”

When everyone dispersed and walked to the consultation desk set up in the corner of the press conference, Huang Xinxing walked over with a mobile phone in his hand, with a smile on his face: "I called Qiao Dong just now and told him all the information at today's press conference, Qiao Dong is very happy." I think if Qiao Dong recovers his language function, he will definitely praise you. ”

Qiao Du tilted her head and thought about Qiao Yuanjing's praise of her, but she couldn't imagine what it would be like anyway.

She smiled reservedly: "Really? If only he was satisfied. But I don't think we should be too happy, this is just the beginning, and we have to observe the next sales situation to know what the market reaction is. ”

Huang Xin smiled and pointed to the crowded consultation desk, and became rare optimistic: "It shouldn't be a problem." ”

Qiao Du also looked over there, curling her lips and smiling.

At the end of the press conference, Xi Yingxuan, Quan Youjian, and Ye Zili, who came to help out in friendship, said goodbye one after another, Qiao Du gratefully wanted to invite them to dinner, and the three of them shook their heads in unison.

Huang Xin kept sending messages to tell her about the reservation of jewelry, and so far, more than 30 sets have been booked, with a total value of 200 million.

Seeing this number, Qiao Dui, who was sitting in the car and leaving, was very happy, as long as the number of orders continued to increase in two more days, then she would have enough confidence and chips to carry out the second step of the plan.

At present, all the work is within the scope of his control, and the boulder hanging in his heart has temporarily fallen halfway.

After being happy, she looked out the window, and her mood slowly became complicated and heavy.

In the end, is Fu Chengrui her child?

Either ask Qiao Xinyi, or ask Fu Jingchao.

Qiao Xinyi entered the police station, and she was afraid that she would not be able to get out for a while, as for Fu Jingchao......

"Miss." The driver in front interrupted her thoughts: "What if there is a reporter in front?" ”

Qiao Xinyi was arrested, and the reporter must be here to block her and plan to interview her.

Qiao Du looked at the reporters surrounding the entrance of the hotel, and hid behind the seat: "Don't panic, they shouldn't know that this is my car, you just drive as usual." ”

The driver kicked the accelerator and the Audi slid out of the hotel door.

Qiao Du lowered her head and swiped Weibo, and there was a lot of news about today's press conference on the Internet, some said that she and Xi Yingxuan were dating, there were reports that the hotel received threatening emails, there were news that the police arrested the suspect, there were reports that Qiao Xinyi was taken away by the police, and there were news that had a strong reaction after the press conference.

These are not the most important, the most important, the most noticeable is a piece of news about Fu Chengrui, the little taizi of Dongcheng Group, which occupies almost half of the page, with a handsome face and a tall figure, and a lot of lethality in one move.

Qiao Duan's eyes stopped on this picture for a long time, these eyes, these eyebrows, these facial features, the lines are clearly defined, no matter how you look at it, they are carved out of the same mold as Fu Jingchao.

But why, the more she looked, the more she felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if she was looking at a part of her body.

The ringing of her phone interrupted her train of thought, and Jian Pei's name danced on the screen.

"Twilight, I'm not free today, I've made an appointment with Mrs. Li and they are playing cards, and I'm going to do a beauty after playing cards, if you have time, go take Yun'er, don't forget." Jian Pei's kind voice came.

Since she said that she would return Qiao's to Qiao Yun in the future, Jian Pei's attitude towards her has really changed one hundred and eighty degrees.

Qiao Duan said lightly and returned to Qiao's work.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

In view of the traffic jam that sent Qiao Yun over last time, this time Qiao Duan asked the driver to park the car at an intersection away from the school, and got out of the car and walked to the school gate to pick up Qiao Yun.

At 3:20, the children in the first and second grades got out of school, and Qiao Du waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for Qiao Yun's figure.

Thinking of Qiao Yun and Fu Chengrui's truancy in the morning, she was shocked, lowered her head and turned out the phone number of Huang Ling, the head teacher who was pre-saved last time, and dialed it to know that Qiao Yun was in the teacher's office.

She put down the phone, hurried to the office, pushed the door in, she was stunned, not only Qiao Yun was standing in the office, but also Fu Chengrui.

The two of them stood motionless at Huang Ling's desk, their lips closed tightly, and the atmosphere froze.
