The person behind him was approaching. It was actress Li Yuan, who had been in the industry for many years but had only become famous in the past two years.
She looked Qi Nuan up and down, and her eyes flashed when they passed by the purple Breguet on her wrist.
This watch is very similar to the one that Mr. Gu failed to win in the auction.
"It's been many years since I last saw you. Miss Qi Nuan is still as elegant as ever." Li Yuan laughed, "I just don't know if you earned this elegance yourself or got it from Young Master Lu."
Qi Nuan had been at odds with the woman in front of her many years ago, and she didn't want to pay attention to her.
Seeing that some people were looking over because of Li Yuan's words, wanting to find out some gossip, she smiled casually, pulled up Hao Lili who wanted to argue for her and went straight to the second floor.
Li Yuan wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the security guard at the spiral staircase. "Sorry, Miss Li, only those with special invitations can sit upstairs. Your seat is on the west side, please."
She was unwilling, but she had no choice.
Although she had asked Gu Hui for help before, he only got her an ordinary invitation card limited to the first floor.
Sitting down at the designated spot on the second floor, Qi Nuan was stared at by Hao Lili with curiosity, and could only reply, "When we were young, she treated me as an imaginary enemy."
Hao Lili shook her head. "Tsk tsk tsk, I think it's not an imaginary enemy, but a rival in love. The look in her eyes makes it look like she hates you to death."
"Can you please stop gossiping about me and just look at your handsome hunk?" Qi Nuan pushed her face towards the entrance of the hall.
At this moment, the originally lively background music suddenly became quiet.
Three burly bodyguards in black suits walked in first. They advanced in a semicircle, signaling the people who were crowding to take photos on the red carpet in the corridor and in front of the hall to move aside.
Then, the face that Qi Nuan was familiar with appeared.
She didn't see Lu Yin in the morning and wondered if he had just changed his clothes and dressed up again.
Although the combination of a white shirt and a gray suit is very common, it looks particularly outstanding on Lu Yin's tall and strong figure.
His hairstyle was obviously well-groomed, his expression was natural and casual, with a slight smile on his face, a true gentleman.
Compared with the young handsome guys around him who were dressed in gorgeous clothes, it was obvious that Young Master Lu was the better one.
"Let's just say, if all the older guys have the boss's looks and temperament, I'll abandon the younger guys and chase the older guys instead."
Qi Nuan smiled at Hao Lili's indecision. When she turned around, she saw Lu Yin turned around and bowed, then walked in with the help of an old man behind him.
He looked as energetic as ever, and the old man was still the Grandpa Lu she remembered, without any signs of aging.
As soon as Mr. Lu appeared, the group's executive president, who served as his spokesperson, immediately came forward to greet him and said, "Chairman, the important guests are here, and everything is ready."
The old man nodded, put his hand on Lu Yin's outstretched arm, and gestured for him to be helped into the venue.
Most of the invited media reporters also had some understanding of the Lu family's membership structure.
Mr. Lu's action clearly confirmed the rumors they had heard: the old man's eldest grandson would surpass his sons and become his true heir.
The shutter buttons were pressed continuously, the flash lights flashed frequently, and the surroundings became noisy.
Qi Nuan recalled what he had muttered to himself at the breakfast stall: "I'm not interested in the Lu family's things. I'll let them go after I've finished everything."
She looked at Lu Yin, who seemed humble in front of everyone, and the complacent Old Man Lu, and then looked at the two uncles of the Lu family and their three children who were ignored behind them.
Although she hadn't been with Lu Yin for long, she could feel that he was indeed different from before.
He had always kept a low profile behind the scenes and did not even often appear to provide guidance on the company's business practices.
But now he has made a high-profile appearance at the centenary celebration that has attracted the attention of many media and business partners. What is the reason for his exposure?
Qi Nuan stared straight at Lu Yin who had already walked onto the stage downstairs.
I don’t know if he noticed anything, but the man downstairs suddenly looked up and glanced in this direction.
There is an illusion of looking into each other's eyes.
The man raised the corners of his mouth and curved his eyebrows.
Qi Nuan lowered her eyes in panic.
"Wow! He looks even more handsome when he smiles!" the women around him exclaimed.
She took another peek and saw that Lu Yin's expression had returned to normal, with only a slight upward curve at the corner of his mouth.
The other members of the Lu family took their seats in front of the stage.
Mr. Lu on the stage let go of Lu Yin's arm and asked him to wait on the side.
He took the microphone from the group president and looked around the building.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the friends from all walks of life for coming to support us. I would also like to thank all the employees from all generations for their hard work. Lu's success today is due to your support. Thank you all."
After the applause subsided, he continued, "I am an old man and my physical strength cannot keep up with the young people. Today's celebration will be hosted by my eldest grandson. I hope everyone will continue to show their support for him in the future."
What the old man said really seemed like he was laying the groundwork for his successor.
Qi Nuan saw several representatives of the aristocratic families that he recognized glance at each other, probably giving each other some confirmation.
The people in the front row downstairs of the Lu family's building sat with their backs to her, their expressions unknown.
But she saw that Lu Heng and the youngest son of Lu's second uncle were both hugging their arms and not clapping.
After escorting Mr. Lu off the stage and taking his seat, Lu Yin was not affected at all. He gave a fluent and handsome performance in the subsequent celebration speech and cocktail party mobilization.
After the stars finished their wonderful performances, the cocktail party officially began.
