Chapter 279: Don't Lose Hope
Lu Ran looked at her daughter Lu Ling in front of her, and was silent for a while holding her cheeks, the joy and smugness in her eyes were mixed with a hint of desire, and it was fleeting.
"It's worthy of being my daughter of Lu Ran, she's so smart." Lu Ran's right hand was on Lu Ling's shoulder and patted it meaningfully, as if he had seen the situation not long after, and the corners of his mouth were raised higher.
"You're wrong." Looking at his father's hand on his shoulder, Lu Ling smiled uncomfortably.
"Okay, you pay attention to rest these days, and you can be refreshed when the time comes." Lu Ran rubbed his gray blazer, "It's time for me to get ready, it's time for me to let someone put on a big glorious!" ”
Looking at the back of his father waving away, Lu Ling's hand went to his pocket and shrugged, hoping that there would be a different harvest at the exhibition.
The venue of the exhibition was set in a hall in a large hotel in the bustling street of Huaguo, and Lu Ran took over the entire floor, and everything went smoothly.
The major powerful and famous families have received invitations to the exhibition.
In Huaguo's high-level research office, everyone looked at the delicate white invitation card with several weapons on it, and their faces were different.
"This Lu Ran is interesting, I know how to hold an exhibition." A man in a black suit with two deep nasolabial folds on his face looked at the invitation and smiled.
"I don't know what kind of thing is on display, don't be a broken copper and iron useless thing, I don't want to see his good show." A lean middle-aged man with triangular eyes spoke in a contemptuous tone and casually threw the invitation on the table.
"I'm curious, what Lu Ran has researched this time."
"I also want to see what the things in this exhibition focus on, maybe they can be used by us."
"You can afford this man, he made it up, and the left is just some flashy toy!" The triangular-eyed man scoffed.
"You can't say that, after all, Lu Ran used to be a researcher in the country, and he has such a smart wife behind him." The man sitting in the corner of the office suddenly spoke.
"Yes, it is." The man in the black suit nodded.
"Humph!" The triangular-eyed man was not convinced, tilted his head to the side, and then said: "Look at the location of the exhibition, it's not too ostentatious, I can also look at Lu Ran and he will be able to take a look twice!" ”
"You two usually fight back and forth, I think you can also hold an exhibition." The man in the black suit chuckled at the corners of his mouth and teased.
"You ......" The middle-aged man with triangular eyes was choked and speechless, so he simply shrank aside, and whispered helplessly: "Then I have to have something to exhibit." ”
Other people on the side held the posture of watching the play, laughing silently, the exhibition was carried out smoothly, the luxury cars at the door of the hotel were one after another, some people were looking at the play of Luran, some people were coming to see the exhibits, and some people were expanding communication.
Flowers were neatly placed on both sides of the hotel door, the security guards and waiters stood upright, Lu Ran politely waved and hugged the guests who got off the car, and Lu Ling stood on the red carpet that extended to the hall, with a standard smile on her face, wearing a white bandeau light gauze pearl shell shell embellished with a long skirt that dragged the floor, and the bright hair on her shoulders fell down, lining her clean and elegant.
"Father, there are some things that I need to deal with, and I will go in first." Lu Ling whispered in Lu Ran's ear.
Lu Ran nodded, turned around and continued to greet the others.
In the hall, with a loud slap, everyone's eyes looked for the sound, Lu Ran on the stage held the microphone, clapped his hands and said: "Guests, friends, welcome to today's exhibition, today's auction will not disappoint you!" ”
"Good, good, good!" The crowd applauded and coaxed.
"Mr. Lu, we will definitely take a good look today!"
Lu Ling, who was standing in the hall, raised her lips and watched her father speak, with a faint kind smile on her face.
Lu Ran looked at the orderly exhibition, the security personnel maintained order, the waiter interspersed the crowd with red wine, everything went smoothly, gently turned his head to look at the auction table covered with bright red cloth behind the photo, looked at Lu Ling with satisfaction, with a simple smile, raised the red wine glass in his hand and continued:
"Here today, everyone has a lot of fun, I did someone first."
Lu Ran drank it all and retreated from the stage, and everyone in the audience raised their wine glasses and drank it clean.
"Lu Ling, you did a good job at today's exhibition, I was surprised and shocked, the red wine is 82 years old Lafite, it tastes good!" Lu Ran looked at Lu Ling with satisfaction, and shook the goblet of red wine in his hand.
Lu Ling raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth hooked a shallow arc, but she was proud but unassuming, "Of course, the tiger father has no dogs, I am your father's daughter." ”
"Okay, don't be poor," Lu Ran's smug face, the fine lines at the corners of his eyes sunken deeper, and a trace of sly light crossed his eyes, "I'll take you to meet your seniors and expand your network!" ”
Especially the people who once looked down on and laughed at him Lu Ran, take advantage of this opportunity to have a good scenery and let these people see how beautiful and excellent his Lu Ran's daughter is!
"Mr. Lu, the one next to you must be your daughter." A man in a dark blue suit with a red striped bow tied around his neck, dragging a goblet with his fingertips, stepped forward to look at Lu Ling and said.
"Mr. Jin, this is my daughter Lu Ling, and she took care of today's exhibition!" The corners of Lu Ran's mouth rose, and he looked at Lu Ling with satisfaction: "Come, Lu Ling, let me introduce you, this is your Uncle Kim, he has helped guide me many times at work." ”
"Uncle Kim, I often hear my father mention you at home, and you have achieved a lot in the field of weapons." Lu Ling's fair and smooth face has a standard smile, and her cheeks are slightly red, which looks even better under the light and has a refined temperament.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be," Mr. Jin, who was in a dark blue suit, heard Lu Ran's words, looked at Lu Ling seriously, thought for a while, nodded and said seriously: "In terms of weapons, Mr. Lu is much better than me now, and he can already hold exhibitions and auctions." ”
"Mr. Jin, I won't tell you, the 'thing' of the finale of this auction is still my daughter's work!" Lu Ran glanced at Lu Ling proudly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became brighter.
"Oh, yes!" Mr. Jin looked at Lu Ling in surprise, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes, and he raised the red wine glass in his hand and said. "Miss Lu is not only very beautiful and has an elegant temperament, but I didn't expect to be excellent in weapons." After Mr. Jin finished speaking, he drank the red wine in his hand.
"Uncle Kim praised it falsely, and I have to ask Uncle Kim for advice in the future." Lu Ling raised a glass together and drank the red wine in his hand.
"Mr. Jin, you have a good time today." Lu Ran drank all the red wine, gestured, and turned around with Lu Ling and walked towards the others.
The warm lights in the hall shone softly on everyone, and the atmosphere was a little more warm.
"Mr. Lu, this beauty next to me must be your daughter," an elegant middle-aged woman wearing a bright yellow suspender bandeau dress thought about Lu Ran, and inadvertently looked at Lu Ling, her eyes were shrewd, and she said with a slight smile on her face: "She looks so handsome!" ”
"Mr. Yang, thank you for the compliment." Lu Ran looked at the middle-aged woman, and then at a young man in a black tuxedo suit with an elegant temperament, and the clothes showed off the proportions of his upper body and slender legs.
Lu Ran continued: "Presumably this is your son, when I saw it today, it was as rumored to say, with a graceful bearing, and I knew at a glance that he was a young talent." ”
"Thank you Uncle Lu for saying that young talents dare not be, but Miss Lu is smart, wise, beautiful and generous." The young man bowed his head and smiled slightly, complimentingly.
"I heard that today's exhibition auction is the result of Miss Lu, and I am very impressed."
Lu Ling smiled lightly, she couldn't have any good impression of the person in front of her, she spoke with an oily tone, she was tired all morning, and she really didn't want to greet him, so she said: "Aunt Yang, Yang Gongzi, there are some things in the background that I need to deal with, so I will leave first, and if the hospitality is not good, please Haihan." ”
"It's okay, go ahead, go ahead." Mr. Yang was very satisfied with Lu Ling, the corners of his mouth were raised higher, and he nodded and said.
Looking at the back of Lu Ling leaving, as if looking at the future daughter-in-law, he glanced at his son beside him again, and continued with expectation in his eyes: "Mr. Lu, how do you see my son looking, is it a good match to stand with Miss Lu?" It would be great if we could get married! ”
"This ...... Your son is very handsome, but she has always had the final say in marriage matters, and we can't interfere. Lu Ran pretended to be helpless and said, feeling proud, how many high-ranking officials of the prestigious clan in the exhibition, and even former opponents also proposed marriage to him, wanting to connect a marriage, which made the brilliance on his face brighter.
Lu Ling sat elegantly on the side of the long table in the hall, her eyes wandered in the crowd, stopped at two familiar figures, she gently pinched the red wine glass on the table, and walked towards the figure.
"Mr. Li Li Yanjun, long time no see, cheers!" Lu Ling walked in front of Li Yanjun, looked at Tong Ying beside him, raised his glass and said.
"Two, I didn't welcome you from afar, as an apology, I did it first."
Li Yanjun and Tong Ying stood arm in arm, seeing Lu Ling, the two looked at each other and smiled tacitly, Tong Ying looked around and asked softly, "Hey, why didn't you see your Byron?" ”
"I'll take you to sit down first," Lu Ling led the two of them to the middle of the table, and sat down in a front position, the shadow of Byron appeared in his mind, his expression was a little dazed, and his tone was a little heavier.
"As for Byron, I ...... Broke with him. ”
Tong Ying looked at Lu Ling's back in surprise, and glanced at Li Yanjun helplessly and regretfully.
"By the way, how are you doing lately, how are you?" Lu Ling turned her head to look at Tong Ying and asked with concern.
"Thanks to you, we're both fine, but you and Byron...... What's wrong? Tong Ying took Lu Ling's hand and patted it, lowering her eyes and worrying about Lu Ling, I don't know how uncomfortable Lu Ling should be at the moment.
"We're fine." Lu Ling turned her head and saw that the guests were almost seated, and squeezed out a smile and said, "Okay, I'm fine, it's almost time for me to go on stage, so I'll leave first, I'll see you later." ”
Lu Ling held the microphone in her hand, stood on the stage and said a brief opening speech, the audience applauded, and as the sound fell, she then said loudly: "The exhibition auction has officially started now, everyone ......"
Lu Ling was interrupted by a long sound of the door opening, she looked up at the gate of the hall, a figure she was familiar with standing there, a slender figure, a decent suit, and the hairstyle on his head were so kind, her head was blank, standing on the stage blank.
