Chapter 240: "Charity Gala (1)"
After Shi Mu and Yi Zhen left, Lin Zi seemed to have lost all his strength, but fortunately, Xu Chenrui held Lin Zi tightly.
On the way back, Lin Zi didn't say a word, and Xu Chenrui looked at Lin Zi with a worried face.
Although she has pretended to be strong for so many years, he knows that her heart is already full of holes.
Xu Chenrui sent Lin Zi back to the company and left.
On the other side, Yi Zhen drove Shi Mu to the shooting site.
Shi Musheng is good-looking, and as soon as he graduated from college, he was discovered by talent scouts to become a model, and now, he is also the darling of major magazines.
At the beginning, in order to get closer to Yi Zhen, she made a lot of efforts to enter the entertainment industry.
In the past five years, her relationship with Yi Zhen has been exposed, which has also made her a favorite in the fashion industry.
"You didn't talk to me all the way, she came back, haven't you forgotten her?"
Shi Mu squinted his eyes slightly, opened the rearview mirror, took out powder and lipstick from his bag and began to make up his makeup.
"You should be late."
Shi Mu pursed his bright red lips and smiled slightly, "I want you to remember that the past has passed, and your current fiancΓ©e is me, don't forget to promise me something." β
"Of course, I didn't forget."
"That's good, by the way, how is Minghua?"
"No problem."
"Alright, I'll go first".
As he spoke, Shi Mu kissed him on the cheek while unbuckling his seat belt, "You won't have to pick me up tonight." β
"Hmm."
Shi Mu got out of the car and walked in.
The car then started and quickly drove away.
Shi Mu stopped, turned to look at the departing car, and squinted slightly.
Yi Zhen, I won't let you leave mine.
Not long after Yi Zhen's car drove out, his mobile phone rang.
He pressed Bluetooth, "Hey." β
"Brother, Minghua has successively collected some shares of scattered people in the past few days, our funds are now sufficient, do you want to increase the price for those shareholders?"
It's Ming Tsai.
Minghua is a company established by Yi Zhen and Shi Mu, and it has become the most powerful local enterprise in five years.
The previous attempt to acquire the shares of Lin's directors at a high price was Ming Hua.
There is no doubt that Minghua wants to annex the Lin family.
Yi Zhen said lightly.
"What's going on over there with the Lin family?"
"There is a very big deficit of funds over there, and it all depends on Miss Lin alone, I heard that recently she plans to press a piece of land, and some people say that she has borrowed money from the bank and pressed all her assets up."
Yi Zhen couldn't help frowning, did she really plan to break the kettle and make a desperate bet?
"Is it the land in Nanjiang?"
"Yes."
Minghua is also fighting for the land in Nanjiang, if it is really bid, the reserve price of the Lin family will definitely not be enough, but Minghua will not let go of this piece of land, after all, it is a fragrant dumpling, and no one will give up.
Yi Zhen couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart, thinking that he hated real estate dealers the most, but he didn't expect that now that he has become a mercenary businessman, time will really change a lot of things.
"Brother? Elder brother? β
Ming Tsai couldn't help shouting when he heard that Yi Zhen didn't respond for a long time.
"Well, what's wrong?"
"Brother, there's one more thing."
"What's the matter?"
"Next week, the wife of the president of Huanyu held a charity auction, and she sent us an invitation, will you go?"
"Auctions? What is being auctioned? β
"I heard it's blue and white porcelain."
"Go ahead."
"Okay, I'll get back to them now."
After Ming Tsai hung up the phone, he sent a message back to the other party, telling the other party that next week, Yi Zhen would attend the auction on time.
In fact, there have been many charity auctions held by such major groups in recent years, Yi Zhen himself is a celebrity, and Minghua has a strong momentum in the city in recent years, and Yi Zhen is often invited.
It's just that not all charity auctions will tell Yi Zhen, he knows that Yi Zhen has been very busy in recent years and has participated in many activities, so he usually asks the other party about the auction first, and then decides whether to tell him or not.
This time, Huanyu prepared blue and white porcelain from the Ming Dynasty.
Recently, Yi Zhen's biggest headache is how to acquire the shares of Lin's shareholders, and the price was negotiated before, because Lin Zi's return to China, everything has changed again, and Lin's Lu Dong and Liu Dong are the most favorite blue and white porcelain, so he knows that Yi Zhen is going to take this set of blue and white porcelain to make Lin's two directors smoothly agree to transfer shares.
Lin Zi got busy as soon as he returned to the company, and not long after, Secretary Fu knocked on the door.
"Please come in."
Secretary Fu took out an invitation and put it on Lin Zi's desk.
"What is this?"
Lin Zi said as he picked up the invitation card and began to read it.
"November 20th, Marriott Hotel, Charity Auction Gala".
"Charity auction?"
"Well, this is a charity auction held by Uniworld Group."
"Huanyu Group?"
"Yes, this is the largest film and television group in China, but their group is involved in many industries, and if we can get their support, maybe it will help us bid for that piece of land. Mr. Lin, think about it or not. β
Lin Zi lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds, "Okay, I'll go." β
This charity auction is their opportunity, and she must grasp it tightly.
Xu Chenrui returned home, and Xu Jinheng was waiting for him on the sofa.
Wang Wanqing is asking some servants to decorate the house.
As soon as Xu Chenrui entered the door, he frowned.
Wang Wanqing glanced up at Xu Chenrui and said lightly, "I'm back." β
Then, he pointed to a worker who was hanging a painting and said, "It's crooked, go this way, by the way, this is it." β
Xu Chenrui walked straight to his father in the center of the living room.
Xu Jinheng slowly raised his head, "Chen Rui, you're back." β
"Dad, is anyone from the house coming?"
"No, there are some old things at home, so I'll change them."
Xu Jinheng paused, turned his head to Xu Chenrui and said: "You have nothing to do in the past few days, you take the time to meet the daughter of the Qin family, you are thirty-five years old this year, you should also start a family, and now the company is getting better and better, and your lifelong events will also be put on the agenda." β
"Dad, I have someone I like."
"Someone you like? Is it still that Lin Zi? β
Xu Jinheng's brows furrowed unconsciously.
Xu Chenrui did not speak.
Xu Jinheng looked at Xu Chenrui's appearance, and he knew that Xu Chenrui had not been close to women in the past few years, and he had always run abroad just for her.
"I don't agree."
"Dad, you introduced us at the beginning."
"It was before, and now it is now."
"Heh, isn't it that the Lin family is not as good as before now?"
"Yes what, you are the young owner of the Xu family, your marriage is not your business alone, it is the business of the entire Xu family, it is related to the future of the Xu family, I will never allow you to marry a girl casually. This matter is not negotiable. β
Sure enough, Xu Chenrui knew early on that this would be the result, but he still wanted to try, even if there was only a glimmer of hope.
After all, he couldn't justifiably be with her.
If he can't be with her, then he is willing to stay by her side like this and silently guard it for the rest of his life, so it's okay.
Xu Chenrui knew that there was no way for him to continue to stay here, so he got up to leave, but was stopped by Xu Jinheng.
"You wait."
"Anything else?"
Xu Jinheng took out an invitation card and threw it to Xu Chenrui.
"This is an invitation from Huanyu, I don't have time to go, you can go for me."
Xu Chenrui took the invitation, laughed at himself, and then left the gate of the Xu family.
He originally thought that he and he had a trace of father-son friendship after all, but after all, he still thought about it too much.
At night, the Marriott Hotel is crowded with guests.
Luxury cars are parked outside the hotel, and the people in the cars come down, either successful people in suits and leather shoes, or noble and elegant wealthy daughters, and all the guests are either rich or noble.
The whole scene was glorious, comparable to the star Cannes catwalk.
Soon, a red Ferrari pulled up in front of the hotel, and Jack got out of the car, came to the co-pilot, opened the door, and propped his hand on the roof.
The silver-white stiletto heels fell to the ground, the fair-skinned slender legs stretched out, and the pure white skirt slowly fell, Lin Zi bent over and walked out of the car.
In fact, Lin Zi didn't want to take Jack with him, for fear that he would disturb his own affairs, but he didn't know where Jack knew the news, and he wanted to follow him, Lin Zi couldn't resist him, so he had to agree.
Jack stretched out his hand, his blue eyes like the blue sea, and looked at Lin Zi affectionately.
Today, she was wearing a pure white slanted shoulder gown, her long seaweed-like hair fell down on her chest, and a few strands of broken hair were scattered in front of her forehead, she slowly stretched out her hand and pinned the broken hair behind her ear, her right ear was completely exposed, and a long tassel silver earring hung down to her collarbone, delicately disagreeing, Jack couldn't help but look stunned.
Lin Zi painted a light makeup, which was neither gorgeous nor ostentatious, and looked very gentle and gentle.
Just one glance at it, it's hard to forget.
Lin Zi's hand fell into Jack's hand, and Jack was a little unusually shy and nervous.
The two walked in.
The little guy in the parking car drove away, and as soon as he drove away, an Aston Martin pulled up where their car had just stopped.
The driver immediately got out of the car and opened the door, and a shiny high-end custom leather shoe stepped out, and then, the high-end trousers wrapped in slender long legs stepped out, and Yi Zhen, dressed in a black suit, appeared tall under the luxurious and expensive crystal chandelier.
As soon as he looked up, he was a little stunned.
The person in front of him is slender, tall, and feminine, and when he walks, the corners of his skirt are lightly raised, as if flowers are blooming.
She leaned sideways, talking to the person next to her, the hall was noisy, she couldn't hear clearly, so she leaned over, the silver earrings swaying with her movements, and the eyes were extremely bright.
The corners of Lin Zi's mouth were slightly curved, his side face was soft, and his thick eyelashes blinked, which made the surrounding light a little eclipsed with a smile.
Yi Zhen stood in place, squinting slightly, staring at the woman in front of him.
"Lin, trust me, you're the most beautiful tonight."
Jack grinned at Lin Zi.
Lin Zi couldn't hear Jack's words clearly, so he leaned over and heard clearly.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense, I still have business to do." Take a hundred plating, and read the latest chapter of "The Centripetal Direction of the Star: The Way Home, Claw Bookstore" for the first time.
