Chapter 33: Sweet and Sour

As soon as you enter the venue, it feels like a concert.

The light show, combined with the shocking music, instantly ignited the atmosphere.

"Good evening everyone, I'm Ji Cong, a friend of Young Master Lu and the special host of tonight's party..."

Ji Ling cursed in a low voice, "Shameless."

Turning around, he whispered to Ruan Xingmian, "The one on the stage showing off his power is my cousin, a smart guy who's not very smart."

Ruan Xingmian took a look at him and his first impression was that he looked like a top, with a round upper body and a thin lower body. The suit was very tight on him.

She looked away and around, but didn't see her sister.

"There's actually a street dance performance by an idol group." Ji Ling clicked his tongue and turned around to see the live broadcast equipment directly opposite the stage.

Gu Xing found Ruan Xingyue first and held Ruan Xingmian's hand in the crowd, "Mianmian, I'll take you there."

Ji Ling lowered her head to look at her phone and waved to them to come back later, as she was occupying the good seat.

Ruan Xingyue wore a white slim-fitting long dress, her hair was tied up high, and she wore a set of light pink pearl jewelry.

Chatting with a gentle man in a wheelchair.

She leaned forward slightly, her expression full of respect.

"Academician Lu." Gu Xing walked over with his girlfriend, bowed slightly, and spoke in a respectful tone.

Ruan Xingmian followed suit and performed the etiquette as a junior.

The person in the wheelchair smiled and stretched out his hand: "Gu Xing, long time no see. You all have girlfriends now."

"Teacher, her name is Xingmian, and she is my sister."

"No wonder I look about 70% alike, both have smart and clever looks."

He also asked Ruan Xingmian how old he was.

Gu Xing smiled and gently pushed his girlfriend.

Ruan Xingmian smiled and said, "20 years old."

Ruan Xingyue continued, "I'll be twenty in November."

Ruan Xingmian was a little nervous. She did not receive the original owner's memory of her birthday, nor did she think of memorizing her ID card, so she could not remember her birthday for a while.

Fortunately, no one cares.

"A few months younger than my rebellious son."

When talking about his own child, Teacher Lu suddenly felt a little sad.

The assistant came over to talk to him, and Lu Yibo nodded to them and left in his electric wheelchair.

"The first funding for the special enrollment of A University Affiliated High School came from Academician Lu's first China Computer Science and Technology Achievement Award," Gu Xing explained.

When talking about Academician Lu, Gu Xing seemed a little excited.

Ruan Xingmian listened quietly: "Is he Uncle Lu Tian?"

"Yes, he's also a doctoral supervisor in computer science at Huazhong University of Science and Technology."

The most advanced algorithm experiments can be found at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology, the highest institution of science and technology where learning and practice are integrated, and where academicians are produced in China.

"Then why haven't I seen his son? If he's about my age, shouldn't he be in the same high school as you guys?"

"I'll go first. You guys find a place to get something to eat." Ruan Xingyue turned and left.

Gu Xing pulled Ruan Xingmian back and said, "When Academician Lu's son was fourteen years old, he killed someone and was sentenced to three years in prison."

Ji Ling knew more about this than Gu Xing. Biting a piece of watermelon, he lowered his voice and said, "Back then, that kid was even more famous than Lu Tian. He skipped three grades in elementary and middle school, finished high school physics and math at the age of fourteen, and kept clamoring to enter the third year of high school, the same year as us for the college entrance exam. Before his father agreed, he was exposed for raping and murdering a girl on the rooftop of the Children's Palace. The Lu family withdrew all the news. But my father said that Mr. Lu came from the army and was very tolerant. He personally sent someone to prison, and it is said that after he got out, he was exiled abroad."

Ji Ling sighed deeply: "Academician Lu is truly miserable. He devoted his life to research and married the woman he loved at the age of 30. A year later, his son was born, but his wife became a vegetable. He raised the child alone, and before he even reached adulthood, he got into trouble and lost all his future."

She looked at Lu Tian, ​​dressed in a suit and tie on the stage, with a face full of wrinkles and a beastly smile, and sighed: "If Academician Lu's son hadn't gone astray, there would be no Lu Tian in the Lu family."

The performance on stage ended and the microphone came into Ji Cong's hands.

The waiter started handing out number plates.

The charity auction has begun.

"This year's auction is very different from previous years. There will be no drawing of lots. The leader, Young Master Lu, will start the auction. After the previous bidder finishes bidding, he will designate the next person to come on stage."

Ruan Xingmian was so anxious that his legs were shaking in the audience.

Lu Tian wouldn’t wake up just to get rid of Gu, would he?

A large hand gently touched her knee, and a grape on a toothpick was handed to her: "Mianmian, this grape is not sour."

Ruan Xingmian took a bite from his hand and nodded in agreement: "Just the right amount of sweet and sour."

Apart from anything else, the buffet was really delicious. I should have known not to eat Sister Ji Ling’s wontons.

Eat as much as you can.

"Don't drink the drink in the cup. I'm going to go say hello to someone. You guys stay here."

Ji Ling walked away with the cup.

In a corner where no one cared, Ruan Xingmian felt sleepy.

His cheek rubbed against Gu Xing's shoulder from time to time, and occasionally he couldn't help but look up to watch the fun, and he also opened his mouth to catch the fruit that Gu Xing fed him. He was very busy.

Lu Tian auctioned a luxury car worth 10 million yuan, and it was bought by Ji Cong for 8 million yuan.

Stole the show.

A young man from an unknown family was called onto the stage and asked to take off the famous watch in his hand.

Lu Tian ran straight here from the stage and sat in Ji Ling's seat.

Say hello to both of them.

Soon, the famous watch on the stage was photographed, and the man called Gu Xing's name to the audience.

The class of young masters in A University Affiliated High School, led by Lu Tianma, had all had conflicts with Gu Xing.

Gu Xing had even forgotten the name of this inconspicuous young master.

I didn't expect that the other party would still remember me.

Ruan Xingmian was very nervous.

What you fear will come true.

Lu Tian: "Go ahead, bro, take some photos and have fun."

"Gu Xing..."

Someone on the stage was still shouting, "Gu Xueshen, you didn't prepare anything, did you? If it really doesn't work out, why not auction off that outfit of yours? I don't think anyone would like it here, but there are a lot of your little fans in the live comments, maybe they'd be willing to show their support."

Ji Ling rushed over and said, "Master Lu, are you kidding Gu Xing? You didn't tell him anything, so why did he go up to auction?"

The atmosphere was tense.

Ji Cong also came to the stage and took a look at Ruan Xingmian's appearance. "Master Lu, I remember one year, a poor boy auctioned off his girlfriend..."

"Shut up." Lu Tian said with a gloomy face.

He didn't want to break up with Gu Xing openly.

Ji Cong shut up awkwardly.

Lu Tian threw a bunch of keys over and said, "This apartment is for you. Take it and bid for it."

Gu Xing caught it reflexively and threw it to Ji Cong: "Give it to the dog. A dog always needs a kennel."

Ji Cong took the key and said: "What..."

Gu Xing patted his girlfriend's shoulder and said, "Be good and wait for me here."

Gu Xing took a long step, picked up the microphone, and walked into the live camera.

He slowly inserted the USB drive and started uploading data. Soon, Gu Xing's folder appeared on the big screen.

The barrage of comments keeps coming in to pick up the leaks.

The auction price must not exceed the original price, and the price will be from high to low. Basically, the first person to bid will succeed.

If the items cannot be sold on site, a link will be posted online for netizens to purchase.

Gu Xing took the microphone, glanced at Ruan Xingmian, and cleared his throat before saying, "I was born poor, and I'm not very lucky in reincarnation. I don't have any luxury cars or watches for you to pick up."

This sentence made Ji Ling quite embarrassed.

However, Gu Xing was very calm: "Fortunately, God is fair. He gave me a pretty good brain. Of course, I only have one brain. If I sell it, I will have no more."

A lot of people at the scene wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and the barrage of comments was full of unbridled hahahahaha.

Some people even asked him to auction the suit and took it off and packed it up on the spot.

The abacus beads all fell on Ruan Xingmian's face.

Gu Xing dropped his joking tone and said seriously, "What I'm going to auction today is an AI face-changing and face-restoring software."

Gu Xing typed these big words on the computer.

He waited a minute to let the barrage heat up.

Ji Ling was the first to ask, "When did you start doing this behind Teacher Qin's back?"

Lu Yi Bo, who was about to leave in the corner, turned his wheelchair around upon hearing this. Due to poor vision, he asked his assistant to open the live broadcast page.

Under the constant urging of the barrage, Gu Xing slowly opened a pornographic screenshot.

This is a picture captured by Darkong.net.

The lower body is mosaiced, but the face belongs to a male celebrity, and it is obviously an AI synthesis.

The male star is still a top star.

“You only need to upload a screenshot to restore the original image.”

When he said this, the whole audience was in an uproar.

You know, everyone has loved changing faces for a long time.

For example, a scammer changes his face and pretends to be a child to defraud money.

Love face changing online dating.

False information spreads.

For example, the male star mentioned above was filming a movie well, but became an actor in a third-level movie.

There is no software on the market that can restore Ai's original face.

I called the police, but they were helpless.

Gu Xing's alternative auction can be said to have caused a huge uproar.

Ruan Xingmian supported his chin, his eyes sparkling, and he uttered a soft "wow" in his heart.

Lu Tian had a gloomy face and stared at Gu Xing.

He stole all the limelight!

His eyes darkened. He actually kept such a powerful design without letting her know at all.

Ji Cong swallowed nervously.

The wine in his hand spilled to Ji Ling's feet.

Gu Xing said calmly, "Do you want to know who this person is?"

More and more fans of male celebrities came to him, threatening to give money to Gu Xing and ask him to find the person who violated their brother's portrait rights, and they would sue him until he was left with nothing.

The phone in his pocket vibrated, and Lu Tian gestured for him to answer the call from the audience.

Gu Xing looked directly at Lu Tian and said, "The software is now available for free. Please download and run it yourself. If you have any questions, please leave a message in the backstage."

As soon as he finished speaking, the banquet hall was pushed open by a line of plainclothes policemen.

Ji Cong collapsed to the ground.

Ji Ling realized it later: "You are doing something dirty outside without telling the ancestors of the Ji family?"

Ji Cong was taken away by two policemen, shouting: "Sister, sister, go find my dad, find your dad, find grandpa to save me."

He saw Lu Tian and shouted desperately: "Lu Tian, ​​Mr. Lu! Save me!"

Ji Cong's throat was stuck and he couldn't make a sound because he saw the police going towards Lu Tian.

Before being questioned, Lu Tian stuffed a bottle of something into Ruan Xingmian's mouth and said, "Remember what I told you. If you don't get what I want this time, I will block your social media account forever."
