The awards gala is about to begin.

Lu Qinglan saw that a man who had just come to the stage was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Xiao Gu saw her confusion, and quietly leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister Lan, you forgot, he is the one who stood with Teacher Zhang last time, and it is said that he has been a friend of Teacher Zhang for many years and was invited to present the award." ”

It turned out to be him.

No wonder it looks so familiar.

Perhaps it is the relationship between things and people by groups, Lu Qinglan subconsciously thinks that that man is the same as Teacher Zhang, and there must be something admirable.

Seeing the look of clarity on Lu Qinglan's face, Xiao Gu smiled again: "By the way, Sister Lan, you may not have noticed it last time, but I saw it, when you turned around after saying that, he looked at you with that kind of appreciation, I think he should have a good impression of you." It would be better if he was the one who presented the award to our magazine. ”

"Really?" Lu Qinglan was slightly surprised, but she was not proud of it, she still smiled, and said softly, "If it is really him who presents us with the award, it is really fateful." But when you say that, I'm looking forward to it. ”

Xiao Gu covered his mouth and smiled: "Who said it wasn't?" ”

The two were chatting happily, and Miao Yiyang and Shi Xiaorui came over hand in hand.

"This way!" Lu Qinglan waved at her door.

"Sister Qinglan." Shi Xiaorui happily sat down beside her, and greeted Xiao Gu again, "Xiao Gu." ”

"Sister Lan." After Miao Yiyang sat down, he said to Lu Qinglan, "The promotional video has been handed over to the staff, there will be no more mistakes this time, I am personally responsible, don't worry." ”

According to the usual practice, all award-winning magazines at the awards party need to prepare a video of their own magazine, which is convenient for publicity and the idea of learning from each other. For many magazines, more attention is paid to publicity, after all, in this case, successful publicity is beneficial to their own company.

Lu Qinglan Magazine has already been handed in, but I don't know what went wrong in the middle link, and yesterday I temporarily received a message from the organizer saying that the video was missing, and I hope to hand in another copy before today's awards. Fortunately, the magazine still has a backup, and Miao Yiyang offered her to improve it again, and finally handed it over to Lu Qinglan after looking at it.

"Good work, Yiyang." Lu Qinglan lowered his voice and said.

Miao Yiyang still didn't have any extra expression: "It's not hard, it should be." ”

As her words fell, the awards party officially began.

Adhering to the concept of simplicity and efficiency, there is no nonsense in this award, it is all straight to the topic, and this year is the same, after introducing the biggest sponsors of this time, Xia Yan and Xia Zixuan, the first award began.

Xia Zixuan sat on the stage and would move his gaze to Lu Qinglan from time to time.

She is wearing a very beautiful dress today, a crescent white dress perfectly highlights her figure, even if she is pregnant now, it will not affect her demeanor at all, the makeup is very light, everything is just right, even the employees around her are very good, especially the old and self-raised Xiao Gu, Xia Zixuan suddenly found that this girl is quite amazing when she dresses up seriously, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Xia Yan sat on his left-hand side, and after paying a little attention, he noticed that he was always looking at Lu Qinglan. Thinking of the conversation between the two who seemed to be very familiar just now, he frowned, there was almost no suspense, he thought of Mr. Xia.

Could it be that his grandfather's last bargaining chip is Xia Zixuan? Decided to ask Xia Zixuan to deal with Lu Qinglan and Ye Tingshen?

Thinking of this possibility, he subconsciously glanced at Xia Zixuan twice.

"Cousin......" Xia Zixuan, who came back to his senses, quickly noticed the scrutiny of the people beside him, and he called him expectantly.

Xia Yan's face was expressionless, as if he was unintentionally tempted: "You are very familiar with Yiyue's Lu Qinglan?" ”

This is the first time Xia Yan has asked himself something since the relationship between the two has become stiff, Xia Zixuan couldn't help himself excitedly, as if a primary school student had scored 100 points in the exam and wanted to ask his parents to praise him: "It's okay!" We're friends! ”

Friend?

Xia Yan chewed on the word secretly, and a sneer quickly flashed in his eyes.

Xia Zixuan couldn't understand his expression, and asked cautiously, "Cousin, what's wrong?" ”

"Nothing, just ask." Xia Yan sat up straight, not planning to speak again.

Although Xia Zixuan was disappointed, as long as he thought that Xia Yan took the initiative to talk to him today, he still felt very happy, and even felt interesting to attend this boring awards party.

In the warm atmosphere of the scene, the award has been carried out to the fifth item, and the next fashion award is about to begin, and Yiyue is shortlisted for this award.

Obviously, it was not the first time to participate in this kind of occasion, Lu Qinglan still couldn't help but get nervous, and when the word Yiyue appeared on the big screen, the winner of the Fashion Award was uncontrollably excited.

It's one thing to know beforehand, but when you're actually there, it's a different feeling. In particular, the award presenters are Mr. Zhang and his friend! How can this not be exciting?!

Also excited were Shi Xiaorui and Xiao Gu, and the faces of the two little girls were full of joy.

Xiao Gu was more steady, and quickly stabilized his mind after the joy, and whispered in Lu Qinglan's ear: "Sister Lan, slow down when you come to the stage." ”

"I know." Lu Qinglan responded with a smile, and that smile, like a hundred flowers blooming in spring, attracted the attention of many people.

Many of the peers present knew Lu Qinglan, some were jealous, some were sincerely blessed, but without exception, they were all shaken by the smile she had when she came on stage.

Lu Qinglan slowly walked onto the podium, and every step was extremely elegant. When she actually stood in that seat and looked up and down, she suddenly calmed down.

Mr. Zhang and his friend quickly glanced at each other, and they both saw the satisfaction and appreciation in each other's eyes, whether it was a newcomer to the industry or an old man who had already made certain achievements, he could sit in front of honor without being shocked and calm, and a little light would make people appreciate. The two of them have been in this industry for so many years, and they have seen too many people who are complacent and proud because of a little achievement, in fact, no matter what they do, pride is the most important, and normal heart is very important.

Teacher Zhang nodded with satisfaction again, picked up the trophy and was about to speak, but unexpectedly-

"Wait! This award does not belong to Yiyue! ”

A majestic voice rang out on the other side of the podium.

And as the words fell, the audience was in an uproar.

A lady who was about the same age as Teacher Zhang walked over calmly, and when she got closer, there were a lot of inhalation sounds from the audience.

Lu Qinglan was also taken aback when he saw her appearance.

If nothing else, just because this lady is the former president of the industry association, she is also a ...... Mr. Zhang's ex-wife, Ms. Xia.

When Lu Qinglan first entered the industry, he once overheard others talking about gossip, when Mr. Zhang and Ms. Xia were recognized as talented women in the circle, both of them were very good people, but then I don't know why, the two divorced five years ago, and Ms. Xia also stepped down as president, but although she clearly said that she would no longer care about the affairs of the circle, many people in the industry association respected her very much, and the evaluation meeting would also ask her opinion, although she never gave any opinion.

Such a person suddenly appeared at the awards party today, and sternly said that the fashion award does not belong to Yiyue, and anyone will be puzzled.

Lu Qinglan is naturally no exception.

It's not that she thinks Ms. Xia's words embarrass her, it's just that she was deprived of honor for no reason, and without giving any reason, it would be very unfavorable for Yi Yue to spread it.

She needed to ask.

But before she could speak, Teacher Zhang on the side frowned and asked, "Doesn't belong to Yiyue?" What do you mean by that? ”

"It's literal." Ms. Xia glanced at Teacher Zhang lightly, her face was cold, "Don't tell me that you can't even understand the words now, if you really don't understand, this president doesn't have to do it anymore." ”

As soon as these words came out, there were more whispers in the audience, and there were gossips, and their eyes kept wandering over Teacher Zhang and Ms. Xia.

I don't know if it's Lu Qinglan's illusion, she always felt that although Ms. Xia was talking to Teacher Zhang just now, her eyes were looking at her.

Mr. Zhang couldn't get off the stage for a while, but he still controlled his emotions very well: "Since you said that the Fashion Award does not belong to Yiyue, you always have to give a reason, you know, all the awards are selected by the organizing committee seriously, without any selfish intentions, you can't deprive it of not belonging!" ”

"You want a reason?" Ms. Xia sneered, as if she had heard a big joke, but in the next moment, she became expressionless when she appeared, and there was a little more coldness, which made people dare not approach, "There is no reason!" ”

"You!" There is no reason to seem to detonate Mr. Zhang's temper, he stared at Ms. Xia full of disapproval, "Don't use your willfulness to negate the results of the organizing committee, if you are here to watch, I welcome it, but if you are here to make trouble, then I'm sorry, please go out!" ”

The irony at the corner of Ms. Xia's mouth became even stronger, and she didn't even look at the person in front of her: "What if I say I'm biased?" ”

After saying that, the two confronted each other silently, and the picture looked weird.

Some people in the audience couldn't sit still, stretched their necks to see more clearly, and some cast sympathetic glances at Lu Qinglan from time to time.

Whatever Ms. Xia's reasons are, it is personally embarrassing to be deprived of honor in this situation.

People often subconsciously sympathize with the weak who they think they are.

Shi Xiaorui looked at the stage anxiously, a pair of hands were tightly pinched together because of worry, and she hurriedly asked Xiang Xiaogu: "What now?" Sister Qinglan, she ......"

"Don't worry, Sister Lan will definitely be able to handle it, don't panic." Xiao Gu patted her hand to show calmness, but having said that, she was actually worried in her heart, and at the same time, doubts poured out all over the sky.

Lu Qinglan stood there alone, taking in the reactions of many people in the audience, stabilizing her mind, she told herself to be calm, and then, she took a step forward and walked in front of Ms. Xia.
