Chapter 21: So Uneducated
Lu Chenhuan's eyebrows frowned slightly, the space in the car was large enough, and Chu Shengge picked the farthest position from him and sat down. For the assistant, her approach was impeccable. If it were someone else, he would be very satisfied with this distance, Lu Chenhuan has always liked people who can find their position. But for Chu Shengge, he always wanted to get closer, closer.
Chu Shengge looked down at the quiet mobile phone, and after coming out of the shopping mall, she sent a message to Ye Xi, asking him what he was doing. She thought that the girl might be an assistant sent to Ye Xi by the company, or someone else, but Ye Xi never replied to her.
The car came to a steady halt at its destination, and a long red carpet stretched out from the door of the high-end clubhouse. Lu Chenhuan took Chu Shengge's soft white hand and took his arm. Such a banquet has long evolved into a communication platform for making friends with powerful people and expanding their career territory, bringing together political and business celebrities in Jiangcheng.
And in such an environment, whether it is a lady or a movie star model, they all try their best to dress themselves, just like the red carpet of the film festival - deep V show breasts, bare backs, and show legs......
Chu Shengge has always disliked the atmosphere of fragrant clothes and cloud temples and jewels, this kind of luxurious and extravagant banquet always makes her feel like a fish thrown to the shore, completely unable to breathe freely. So although the Chu family was also famous in Jiangcheng, as the only daughter of the Chu family, few people recognized her.
Lu Chenhuan seemed to see an acquaintance, and whispered to Chu Shengge, "You go shopping by yourself, I'll say hello to my friends." β
"Okay, you're busy." Chu Shengge is like being amnestied - Lu Chenhuan is simply a luminous body, and wherever he goes, people will gather to say a few words to him, and Chu Shengge just hates socializing the most.
Chu Shengge walked to the buffet dining area, she didn't eat dinner, and her eyes lit up when she looked at the dazzling desserts in front of her. No matter what happens, you have to eat enough to have the strength to solve it, don't you? She sandwiched herself a piece of mango mousse cake, then took a glass of mineral water and found an inconspicuous place to sit down to eat.
Li Yifan stretched out his fist and touched Lu Chenhuan's shoulder, Lu Chenhuan didn't make much movement, just deftly leaned sideways and held Li Yifan's fist with his hand.
"Hey, I thought you were a well-dressed gentleman in a foreign scholar's house, and your body was already rusty, but I didn't expect the reaction to be quite fast." Li Yifan's eyes stopped at Chu Shengge, who was eating cake in the corner, this girl is very beautiful, but she is a little different - women generally like sweets, but in the face of such high-calorie food, they don't have the courage to eat a whole piece at once and then take a piece, "Bring such a beautiful girl to the banquet, but don't let her come over to introduce me?" β
"Don't worry about things you shouldn't." Lu Chenhuan hooked a glass of red wine from the waiter's tray with his fingers, and the aged wine was as beautiful as a flowing ruby in the goblet.
"How did a big living person become a thing?" Li Yifan teased.
"Personal belongings are not to be discussed." Lu Chenhuan frowned, the vintage of the wine was not enough to barely be edible.
Personal belongings? Li Yifan raised his eyebrows, even the fiancΓ©e chosen by the Lu family for him had never seen him like a baby...... Tsk, there must be a good show to watch in the future.
Chu Shengge's mobile phone rang, she looked at the call, and walked out of the banquet hall quickly, "Hey." β
"Shengge, I'm sorry, I was outside just now and didn't see your message." Ye Xi's voice was full of apologies, "You haven't eaten yet, I'll go to the dormitory to pick you up for dinner now." β
"No need, I'm socializing with my boss, and I should be able to go back very late."
"Oh......" Ye Xi groaned, "Tomorrow Saturday, I'll take you out to play." β
"yes, okay." The corners of Chu Shengge's lips finally showed a little smile, maybe she was thinking too much, it was no big deal to go shopping with the opposite sex, and she also went shopping with the big boss in the afternoon, didn't she?
Zhou Jiahui didn't pay attention to who was standing in the corridor, but the dress on her was a new product she ordered in the famous store last week, and she called to urge her once in the afternoon.
After Zhou Jiahui approached and saw the person clearly, he was even more surprised, "Why are you here?" β
Chu Shengge hung up the phone and put the phone in his bag. Chong Zhou Jiahui bowed slightly, "Miss Zhou is good." β
"What about you? What are you doing here dressed up like this? Zhou Jiahui's high-minded expression seemed to say-such an occasion, can a person like you attend?
"Work." Chu Shengge wanted to go back to the banquet hall immediately, where there was Zhou Jiahui, there was a high chance of meeting Zhou Jianian, and she didn't want to block herself.
Damn Murphy's Law: If you're worried about something happening, it's more likely to happen. Just when Chu Shengge wanted to leave, Zhou Jianian really appeared, "Shengge, why are you here?" β
Hehe, it's definitely a brother and sister who are like a fake, and even what they say is exactly the same. Chu Shengge had already made the relationship with Zhou Jianian to the point that she couldn't be more stiff that day, but in view of the fact that she wanted to be quiet in the future, she didn't want to ease up, so she blocked Zhou Jianian's existence and turned around and walked towards the banquet hall.
"Hello? What did my brother ask you? Zhou Jiahui caught up with Chu Shengge and grabbed her arm arrogantly, "There is no one to teach you in life, so uneducated!" β
Chu Shengge turned around, her face was a cold expression that had been violated by a taboo, she waved Zhou Jiahui's hand away, as if she had shaken off something unclean, her tone was cold but with a strong sense of oppression, "Miss Zhou's words are good, but is it worthy of those etiquette lessons you take to evaluate others like this?" It's really a well-educated and famous lady, I really have a lot of knowledge today! β
Zhou Jiahui was completely frightened, she had never seen such a Chu Shengge - like a goddess of revenge coming from the dark night, ready to burn people to ashes with black flames.
Zhou Jianian also realized that Zhou Jiahui's words were too much, and immediately scolded, "Jiahui, apologize to Shengge." β
"Brother, how can you help her!" Zhou Jiahui was so angry that he stomped his feet.
Lu Chenhuan's face was dark, he only left for a short while, and this little woman got involved with Zhou Jiannian, "The charity auction is about to start." Lu Chenhuan walked over and reminded.
Zhou Jianian subconsciously wanted to pull Chu Shengge to his side, but Chu Shengge took a step ahead of him and put his hand around Lu Chenhuan's arm and left with Lu Chenhuan.
Zhou Jianian's hand maintained an outstretched posture, but the person he wanted to catch had already walked away, and even the unique smell of her body in the air was diluted by the air around her.
Also in the same place was Zhou Jiahui, who couldn't recover from the shock, and she fell in love with Lu Chenhuan at first sight at her father's birthday party. Since it is difficult for outsiders to intervene in Lu Chenhuan's social circle, there is almost no chance of contacting him...... Just now, the male god in her mind appeared in front of her, but he took Chu Shengge away, and he didn't even look at her.
Lu Chenhuan was obviously very satisfied with Chu Shengge taking the initiative to take his arm and leave with him, and handed the number plate on the seat to Chu Shengge, "If you see something you like, hold up the card, and I'll give it to you." β
"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Chu Shengge thanked him politely, looked at the number plate in his hand, and put it to the side casually.
Natural green tourmaline ring, South Sea gold pearl necklace, glass jade pendant, ruby brooch, yellow diamond bracelet, sweet white glazed plum bottle, cloisonnΓ© enamel table clock...... One lot after another was auctioned, Chu Shengge never raised a card, she never needed this kind of icing on the cake.
"Don't have a favorite?" Lu Chenhuan raised his eyebrows, there are a lot of jewelry in today's lot, "Don't women like shiny jewelry?" β
"That could be...... The things that the women I have seen are relatively simple. Chu Shengge replied softly.
"And what do you like?" Lu Chenhuan found Chu Shengge's argument very interesting.
"I'm a very boring person, I don't like anything." Chu Shengge lowered his eyes.
"It's not good to lie." Lu Chenhuan glanced at the ring on Chu Sheng's singer, a combination of platinum and natural amethyst, although the material is not very precious, but the design and craftsmanship are master's works. It's not that she doesn't like jewelry, she's very picky, not only picking things but also picking people who give things.
Lu Chenhuan still auctioned an emerald necklace in the charity auction, the layers of platinum tassels are embellished with emerald dripping gemstones, which looks like a grape leaf hanging with dew from a distance.
It was nearly ten o'clock after the auction ended, and the stretched version of the car they were in when they came was carrying them smoothly on the streets of Jiangcheng decorated with lights as if it were day.
Lu Chenhuan seemed to be in a good mood, "Do you want to go have some supper?" β
"No need, thank you Mr. Lu for your kindness."
"What if...... Shall I let you go with me? β
Lu Chenhuan's tone did not have a trace of waves, and the expression on his face was also very calm, so Chu Shengge couldn't tell if Lu Chenhuan was already angry at this time. But she really didn't want to go, "I'm sorry, the dormitory has a curfew time, and it's really inconvenient for me to go back too late." This is a good reason, if Lu Chenhuan forced her to go, it can only be said that he is too unreasonable. However, Chu Shengge is not completely sure, a person like Lu Chenhuan who stands at the top of the pyramid has a set of self-respecting survival mode, and her reason may not make sense to him.
"What a good girl who follows the rules." Lu Chenhuan's tone was a little teasing.
The car stopped downstairs in the dormitory, and Chu Shengge really had a headache - he often took various luxury cars back to the dormitory, which was really good to say.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for sending me back, goodbye." Chu Shengge was just about to open the car door, but her wrist was held by Lu Chenhuan, and she had to stop and look at Lu Chenhuan.
"How about being my woman?"
Lu Chenhuan's Mandarin was spoken to a very standard level, but Chu Shengge was stunned, staring at a pair of big eyes as if he hadn't heard Lu Chenhuan's words clearly. Chu Shengge's brain crashed for more than ten seconds, and then there was a long silence. During this time, Chu Shengge's expression was really rich: surprise-anger-restraint-with a hint of indifference.
"I haven't heard Mr. Lu's words, I already have a boyfriend." Chu Shengge opened the car door neatly.
"But his family doesn't seem to accept you." Lu Chenhuan saw Zhou Jiahui trouble her more than once, "You can think about it, I'm serious, you won't suffer if you follow me." β
