Chapter 9: Lan Miao's Banquet
Today, all the famous characters in the capital are in the Lan family, and the invitation written by Lan Lixiao himself is to tell everyone how much he values Lan Miao's granddaughter.
"Are you ready?" Lan Qin stood at the door of Miao's room.
Ah Miao met her gaze, and could feel that she was very satisfied with the way she looked now.
"A little nervous." Miao smiled, "I've never experienced this kind of scene. ”
Lan Qin looked at her, the pale gold slanted shoulder evening dress was luxurious and unassuming, the style was not cumbersome, but a large number of diamonds were embellished from the skirt, each one was genuine.
The hair is naturally draped behind the head, and the only different color on the body is the jade necklace around the neck. Lan Qin recognized it, it was her grandmother's favorite.
"Behave well, don't waste grandpa's heart!" She smiled meaningfully and turned to leave.
Ah Miao took a deep breath in the mirror, she was really nervous. The people who came to her before also said that it was precisely because of Ah Miao's living environment and current experience since she was a child that her temperament was very contradictory.
Perfect for playing the role you have now......
"Alright! Come on! She clenched her fists and stepped along.
Lan Lixiao was waiting for her at the top of the stairs.
"Grandpa."
"It's beautiful!" The old man looked at Ah Miao who came over with satisfaction, "The necklace is very suitable for you." ”
Ah Miao touched it, and the emerald touch was very comfortable: "Thank you!" It's beautiful. ”
"What's beautiful about the necklace depends on who is wearing it." Lan Lixiao said very willfully, "My granddaughter looks good when she brings it!" ”
Ah Miao grabbed her arm: "Hehe! Let's go down."
The hall of the Lan family has been specially decorated, with clothes and temples, and there are guests. When Lan Lixiao and Ah Miao came down from the upper floor, the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused.
"Everyone's face, don't greet well!" Lan Lixiao said hello neatly, quietly gave Ah Miao two steps, and pushed her to the front.
"This is my granddaughter Lan Miao, she just came back, don't bully her in the future! I'm a lot of old bones, nothing else, it's still okay to take care of my baby granddaughter, haha! ”
Although Lan Lixiao smiled, his tone was not like a joke at all, and he announced to the high society in the capital bluntly that no one could bully her Lan Lixiao's granddaughter, otherwise just wait for me to clean you up......
"Ah Miao, come here!" Lan Qin beckoned to her.
Ah Miao looked at Lan Lixiao.
"Go ahead! Let your aunt show you how to recognize people. Lan Lixiao patted Ah Miao's shoulder, "Don't be afraid, you are the eldest lady of the Lan family, they should be afraid of you!" ”
Lan Qin handed Ah Miao a glass of champagne, and when he saw that she just put it to her lips and dipped it, she nodded.
"The first thing I teach you is that you should never drink a drink that someone hands you in public."
Ah Miao was about to take a second sip, but her arm paused in the air: "Can ...... You're my aunt. ”
"Including me, of course." Lan Qin touched her wine bowl, "Anyone you don't trust, or anyone you feel like you're friends with, that's included." ”
Ah Miao blinked: "I don't understand." ”
"Your best friend is often your fiercest enemy." Lan Qin's beautiful facial features approached her, "Got it?" ”
"Got it......"
Someone came over to talk, Lan Qin introduced Ah Miao, and the next thing was to say hello endlessly, smile, and listen to others praise her. Occasionally, Ah Miao would see the cousins of Lan Lixiao who had come to eat before.
There was a posture of the master's family and greetings with people, but obviously the contempt flashed in the eyes of the others, which also proved that although their surname was Lan, they were not the same as the Lan family at all.
"You're so beautiful today!" Ouyang Jin didn't know where to come from, and after praising Ah Miao, he gave Lan Qin a standard gentlemanly salute, "I have admired the name for a long time, the third lady is good!" ”
Lan Qin covered his mouth and smiled: "I should say this, I have long admired Mr. Gambler!" ”
"Huh?" Lan Wenxuan in the back asked curiously, "Auntie, do you know each other?" ”
Ouyang Jin pretended to frown deeply: "Impossible, if I have seen such a beautiful woman as Miss San, I will definitely never forget it." ”
"Huh! Speaking of which, I've really seen it. Lan Qin touched his hair, "I was on the scene at a game you had in the United States a few years ago. ”
Ouyang Jin raised his glass: "That's my fault, I didn't see the third miss, I will give you a face another day and invite you to have a meal as an atonement!" ”
"You're welcome!" Lan Qin touched a glass with him, "You young people talk, I'll take Ah Miao away for a while." ”
"Don't be afraid, I'm sure you can do it." Ouyang Jin touched the wine glass with Ah Miao again, deliberately saying something ambiguous.
After Lan Qin and Ah Miao left, Lan Wenxuan began to doubt again: "Aren't you really interested in Ah Miao?" ”
"Guess?" Ouyang Jin blinked.
Ah Miao finally had time to rest for a while, Lan Qin and a few close wives were discussing the auction, she said hello and walked to the rest area and sat down on the sofa.
"Miss Lan?" A man walked past her and stepped back, "You don't recommend that I sit down, do you?" ”
"Please!" Ah Miao smiled politely.
The man didn't talk to her after sitting down, just kept looking at his watch.
"This gentleman." Ah Miao couldn't help but say, "If you're in a hurry, you can leave first." ”
The man seemed to be a little surprised that she would take the initiative to speak, and smiled embarrassedly: "That's not appropriate, today is Miss Lan's banquet, I'm leaving so early......"
"But you have something very important, right?" Ah Miao shook her head, "Then let's go, if anyone asks, I'll say that you have already greeted me." ”
The man's eyes lit up, and Ah Miao realized that although this man was average, his eyes were very good-looking, and he was particularly infectious when he smiled.
"Then thank you, Miss Lan!" The man gave her a grateful look and stood up and left.
Ouyang Jin had been paying attention to this side, and when he saw that the person was gone, he hurriedly came over and sat down: "Do you know?" ”
"I don't know." Ah Miao shook her head, "It seems that people are in a hurry." ”
"Do you think he's quite honest, so help him out?" Ouyang Jin smiled playfully, "That guy's name is Qi Ze, and he is the boss of Huayi Entertainment. ”
Ah Miao was a little surprised: "He? But ......"
"Not like it!" Ouyang Jin sighed, "It looks very honest, but in fact, the means are very, especially at the negotiation table." I heard that the person's IQ is very high, and Huayi Entertainment is one of the three largest entertainment companies in Beijing. ”
"By the way, didn't Lan Wenxuan answer a phone call that day? said that a relative entered the entertainment industry, that is, in Qi Ze's company. is the daughter of a cousin of Lan Lixiao, named Nie Shuangshuang. ”
After he finished speaking, he saw that Ah Miao had such an expression: "What? You got it. ”
"No, that Nie Shuangshuang, I've already seen it." She told me a rough story about that day at the hotel. ”
Ouyang Jin gloated after hearing this: "She is really unlucky, fortunately she didn't come today, otherwise I'm afraid she will lose sleep at night." ”
The relatives who don't go into the stream have offended the eldest lady who is serious, and I think it's a good show when I think about it!
"It's really troublesome to have more relatives...... Ah Miao rubbed her forehead, thinking of something and asking, "I heard that Old Man Lan had a few words on the phone with someone in the morning, as if it was his youngest son." ”
Ouyang Jin looked around: "Presumably because he didn't come back to attend the banquet, which made the old man dissatisfied." ”
"I sound like I'm still abroad."
"It's better if he doesn't come back." Ouyang Jin's eyes suddenly lit up.
Ah Miao looked at him strangely: "What did you think of?" ”
"Nothing!" Ouyang Jin shook his red hair, "I remembered something and went back to God." ”
At this time, there was a commotion at the door, and Ah Miao saw Lan Wenxuan hurriedly coming over.
"Let's go, grandpa is looking for you!"
Before Ah Miao could speak, Lan Wenxuan pulled him up and left: "The people from the Jin family and the Li family are here." ”
There are two other cities in the capital that are as famous as the Lan family! The information flashed quickly in Miao's mind.
"Don't be ashamed later!" Lan Wenxuan glanced at her, "If the people of the Li family say anything unpleasant, they have to look at my eyes." ”
Ah Miao paused, not knowing what he meant. It's a pity that I have already walked into the small living room, and a group of people are sitting there.
"Ah Miaolai!" Seeing her come in, Lan Lixiao beckoned.
Ah Miao walked up to the old man and sat down: "Grandpa! ”
"Come on! This is Old Man Kim. He pointed to a fat old white man.
Ah Miao stood up and bent down slightly: "Hello Jin Lao!" ”
"Haha!" Old man Jin looked at him secretly, and nodded his chin to the side, "A meeting gift for you." ”
A woman next to her stared at Ah Miao and handed over a red envelope: "It's so beautiful, Uncle Lan, you are so blessed!" ”
"Of course!" Lan Lixiao was not polite at all, "This is the daughter of Old Man Jin." ”
Ah Miao called Auntie again.
The woman smiled and clapped her hands: "Good! ”
"Doesn't it look like it...... I don't know where it came from. Suddenly a voice came from the side, and then the atmosphere froze.
Lan Hua glanced at Shen Qing, and Shen Qing laughed: "Li Rong, you are still in such a hurry, our own granddaughter, can we be mistaken?" ”
"You ......" a fashionably dressed woman across the street glared at her.
Shen Qing ignored her and continued: "I remember that a few years ago, there was also a ...... in your family who came back from outside Is your sister or brother? You're not mistaken, right? ”
The thin old man sitting next to Li Rong snorted, but glanced at Li Rong as if he was warning.
"Today is my granddaughter's banquet, and everyone is happy." Lan Lixiao glanced at the thin old man Li Peng lightly.
Li Peng laughed angrily: "Don't say it as if we have some purpose, Ah Miao, right?" ”
“…… Be. Although Ah Miao knew who he was, Lan Lixiao hadn't introduced him yet, so she could only pretend to be at a loss.
"His surname is Li." Lan Lixiao glanced at Li Rong and didn't introduce her at all.
Ah Miao hurriedly shouted: "Hello Li Lao!" ”
"Greetings." Li Peng took out a checkbook from his pocket and handed it over.
"......" Ah Miao's heart twitched, don't give it if you're not prepared, what is this?
Li Peng saw her there, and frowned: "What, it's too little?" ”
