Chapter 180 She’s Just Here to Join in the Fun
Lan Qiao was about to say something to him when he suddenly heard Xie Huailou's name. He was stunned for a moment and didn't quite believe it: "Is there someone in our H City that Xie Huailou wants to make friends with?"
Qin Lang turned on the loudspeaker of his cell phone, threw it on the tea table, and took care of his messy hair in front of the small mirror.
"Of course not! It's a pity that he offended Miss Tu. I finally managed to get in touch with her with my eloquence. It just so happens that you have something new here, so I'll ask her to take a look."
Perhaps it was the words "Xie Huailou" that caught Lan Qiaozai's attention, or perhaps it was because Qin Lang, his nephew, rarely spoke in a serious tone, but Lan Qiaozai seemed to have forgotten that Qin Lang had let him off the hook. Instead, he thanked him, "Then my uncle should thank you for introducing me to this distinguished person."
Qin Lang, who knew Lan Qiao well, could tell from Lan Qiao's tone on the phone what his uncle was planning. He turned around in fear and shouted, "No, no, no, no—"
On the other side, Lan Qiao couldn't help but move his ears away when he heard a series of screams coming from the receiver.
"Uncle! Please don't!"
Lan Qiao was a little confused, and said in a slightly serious voice, "Don't do what?"
Qin Lang was anxious. "This girl has a rather... well, how can I put it? She's only suited to waiting for opportunities, not attacking cities and seizing strongholds. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"You don't understand shit! Speak human language." Lan Qiao, who always maintained a gentlemanly demeanor in front of outsiders, often couldn't control the urge to stab his only nephew when facing him.
"Xie Huailuo couldn't even find out her true background. When the girl wanted to disappear, Xie Huailuo dug deep in the ground but couldn't find her." Qin Lang felt that he had spoken so bluntly. If his uncle still didn't understand, then he would have wasted all these years.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.
Qin Lang thought to himself, look at what I said.
Soon, Lan Qiao's curiosity was piqued: "Xie Huailou was defeated in front of her?"
"Well, he went back to Haicheng feeling quite depressed. If it weren't for Xie Siming's wedding, I guess he wouldn't have wanted to leave. He asked me to keep an eye on him before he left." Fearing his uncle would ask about the matter, he quickly added, "But we just have a small friendship, it's as insignificant as a feather. If I tell him without knowing anything, I'm afraid I'll offend him again. There's no way I'll offend him again."
It was rare for Qin Lang to explain so much to one person. Lan Qiao probably understood the importance of this guest in his nephew's heart. "Okay, I understand now. I thought you were just trying to add icing on the cake for your uncle, but in the end, you're just using your uncle's exhibits to pay tribute to Buddha."
Lan Qiao finally came to his senses and realized what Qin Lang was planning.
The uncle and nephew laughed at each other for a long time across the phone.
Lan Qiao asked: "Is there anything that this young man should be careful about?"
He found out in advance.
Qin Lang thought for a moment and said, "It seems that it's nothing. If you don't provoke her, she's a pretty easygoing person. But she has big ideas in her mind and is wary of others."
In Lan Qiao's opinion, these are not big taboos.
"I'm going to ask you one last question. Please tell me the truth."
"You say." Qin Lang could probably guess what he wanted to ask.
"The finale exhibit, do you really think she has the ability? The girl doesn't look very old, she may not be able to understand it." Lan Qiao said seriously.
Qin Lang thought seriously for a while and replied, "I'm not sure about that. She brought a gold ingot that was passed down from the Xie family to my shop to sell, so Huailou was keeping a close eye on it. But the ingot wasn't from the Xie family. She didn't tell me where she got it from, and Huailou didn't find out. So, how much strength does this person have? You know what kind of personality Huailou has."
Lan Qiao nodded while holding up the phone. "That kid is just too goal-oriented, heartless, and out of touch with the world. Don't try to imitate him. That kind of mentality isn't practiced in our Lan family."
Qin Lang rolled his eyes and reminded: "I am from our Qin family."
Lan Qiao was cursing, "You're talking as if you didn't shed the blood of our Lan family. Stop talking nonsense and come back to the Lan family for dinner this weekend. Your grandma and grandpa miss you."
Qin Lang wanted to refuse, but Lan Qiao said, "Your mother and they won't come back."
"Okay!" Qin Lang said readily.
After hanging up the phone, Lan Qiao stood there for a while. His subordinate, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward and asked, "Mr. Lan, the guests are here. Will we start on time?"
"Start on time."
As the fresh and beautiful host walked onto the stage with a microphone in hand, the whispers in the audience gradually quieted down. Tu Huan, who was sitting in the VIP seat in the center left of the second row in the front, suddenly felt much more at peace.
The last exhibition of Gujintang before the New Year's Eve in Tianxiang Pavilion slowly opened.
The lights above gradually dimmed, and the guests around turned their eyes to the stage. From the brightest spot in the room, a clear melody came faintly from behind the booth.
A beam of light hits the host's desk. The indigo-blue high-end custom-made cheongsam is worn by the host, which is graceful and elegant. The white jade tassel pendant hanging on the chest button is very eye-catching.
As she walked lightly, her elegant and graceful temperament came to her face. Tu Huan envied her dignified and elegant face. Her slender neck was a luxury in her life. Where did she find a host with such delicate and beautiful facial features? The young lady is so beautiful.
Tu Huan stared at the beauty intently and thought to himself that the trip was worth it.
"Dear guests and friends! Good afternoon! As the year draws to a close, Lanqi Jiahe Private Exhibition welcomes everyone to come! I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Tianxiang Pavilion Ancient and Modern Hall for their assistance in making this exhibition a success. Thank you very much!"
The host's clear voice, distinct pronunciation and pleasant tone drew all the guests' attention to the stage.
Tu Huan was no exception. It was her first time to attend such a private exhibition.
"Looking at this arrangement, the Lan family has invested a lot of money this time."
"Can everything on display tonight be taken out?"
"I don't know. In the past, the Lan family always kept a reserve."
There were guests talking at the back. Tu Huan looked forward while listening attentively. Everyone had the same reaction to things they didn't understand.
Xiang Li from Yucheng Technology on the right has been paying attention to Tu Huan for a long time since he greeted her.
Noticing that the other party also seemed bewildered, as if he had suddenly found an ally, he happily said, "Miss Tu, is this also the first time you've been invited to the Lan family's private exhibition?"
Tu Huan turned around when she heard the noise, met the pair of excited eyes, and nodded slightly.
"Yeah, it's the first time."
Qin Lang asked her to come and take a look casually, but when she arrived, she found that this was not a casual matter.
"What a coincidence! Me too." Xiang Lai smiled, glanced at the brochure in her hand, and chatted, "Miss Tu, are there any exhibits you like?"
Tu Huan was taken aback by the question: "Huh?" Then she realized that the other party was asking about the things in the booklet, so she said: "Oh, not yet."
She was just here to join in the fun, a passerby.
"I do like one or two things," he said with anticipation, "but I don't know if I can get what I want tonight."
"I wish Mr. Xiang all his wishes come true."
