Chapter 278: The annual celebration did not avoid reporters, which was equivalent to an official announcement
Shangli's annual celebration was different from the party held for Li Yansheng's company's listing. In addition to company insiders, many reporters also attended. Some were invited by the company, while others came on their own.
When Lin Shutang arrived at the scene in Li Yansheng's car, some reporters thought the person in the car was Li Yansheng. The moment the car door opened, they started taking pictures of the person getting out.
The sound of shutter clicks came one after another, and the bright lights made Lin Shutang unable to open her eyes. She raised her hands to cover her eyes and entered the venue.
The person in the car wasn't Li Yansheng, but for the reporters, a young woman getting out was clearly more valuable news than Li Yansheng himself getting out of the car. Hence, the shutter clicks became more frequent.
Li Yansheng received the message from Fan Sizhuo that they had "arrived" and came out to look for him. He just happened to see Lin Shutang raising his hands to cover his eyes, so he walked over and hugged him as he walked inside.
But he didn't ask the reporters not to take pictures.
After entering the room, Lin Shutang stood still and asked awkwardly, "Will what happened just now have any impact?"
Li Yansheng had never concealed their relationship, but he hadn't announced it publicly either. Only a few people in the industry knew about it.
The love affairs of people in the business circle are linked to business to a certain extent, especially since Li Yansheng is the top boss of the Li family, more people are concerned about his emotional state.
"It's okay!" Li Yansheng knew that she was referring to the incident of the two of them being photographed, and answered in a calm tone, as if he didn't take what happened just now to heart at all.
Then, he pulled her to sit in the front row.
The banquet began with Li Guangsong's opening remarks. Halfway through, Li Guangsong noticed Lin Shutang's direction and a momentary chill crossed his eyes. However, he didn't show it on his face.
After all, he has been immersed in the business world for many years. His expression never changed, and even his tone of voice did not pause.
Except for Li Yansheng and Lin Shutang himself, probably no one knew that the person on the stage had just had a momentary change of mood.
Afterwards, there were some insignificant speeches from the CEOs. Li Yansheng’s anniversary summary was placed at the end: “…On behalf of Shangli, I would like to thank everyone for coming again.”
As the meeting was about to end, a reporter approached to ask some personal questions: "Mr. Li, may I ask the lady who just came in with you..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was pulled out by security personnel.
However, everyone present still noticed the key words in the reporter's mouth. "Madam," Li family boss, did he bring that little girl here?
Thinking of this, many people couldn't help but look in the direction of Li Yansheng's seat, and sure enough, they saw the girl's pretty back.
The lights under the stage weren't very bright, but you could still tell she must be very good-looking.
A dark green dress with colorful three-dimensional flowers on it.
If an ordinary person were to dress like this, it would probably not be eye-catching, and might even make people think she was ugly. But she didn't, and it actually made her skin look fairer. When she was talking to the person next to her, her profile could also show her delicate and three-dimensional features.
Such appearance is rare in the entertainment industry.
Many people in Hong Kong were keeping an eye on Li Yansheng's marriage. They had known that Li Yansheng had a girl, but they hadn't thought much of it, thinking that it was impossible for two people with such a huge gap in status to get married. It was normal for a man to have one or two close female friends before marriage, so they hadn't taken it seriously.
Only today did they realize that things might not be as they thought.
The annual celebration was different from usual banquets. They brought people to the scene and did not avoid reporters. Such an action was no different from an official announcement.
On the other side, Li Yansheng had just stepped down from the stage and sat down to say a few words to Lin Shutang when Li Guangsong came over.
After all, he was Li Yansheng's father, and they had had a bad impression of each other before. In such an occasion, due respect should be given. So Lin Shutang thought about standing up and greeting him.
However, just as he was about to move, he was stopped by Li Yansheng.
In an instant, Li Guangsong's face turned even worse: "Come with me!"
There was no emotion in his tone, and it was obvious that he didn't even have the patience to wait until the party was over.
Lin Shutang looked at the people around him with some uneasiness.
Li Yansheng patted her hand soothingly: "It's okay, wait for me here!"
"good."
