Within three minutes, the news that the president of Huo's Group had personally flown to Lin's tailoring site spread throughout Bincheng's upper class society.
The people from the Gu family were also a little excited. Everyone understood that if they could climb up the ladder of the Huo Group, they could at least have a place in the upper class of the imperial capital.
Gu Feng and Gu Xi had already grabbed the scissors and were ready to cut, but when they looked up, they found that the crowd that had been densely packed just now had become sparse.
"Boss Gu, my wife's third uncle is coming to Bincheng today. I'm going to go see him."
"Director Gu, my second aunt's niece is giving birth today, and I need to go over there now."
…
The scene that just happened at Lin's also happened at Gu's.
The scissors in Gu Feng's hand had already been removed by two-thirds before he even moved.
The rest of the people were also ready to make a move, ready to slip away when Gu Feng wasn't paying attention.
"Dad, it's that Lin Jiu again. He's really going too far." Gu Xi threw the scissors on the table in anger. "I have a clever plan to ruin Lin Jiu's reputation!"
After saying that, Gu Xi picked up his phone and called someone.
The Lin family's place was already full of guests, but no one paid any attention to Tang Li from Southeast Asia. He was sitting alone on the bench in the corner.
Suddenly, he reached out and picked up the champagne on the table, stood up, straightened his suit, and walked towards Huo Shen, who was surrounded by stars.
"Mr. Huo, I didn't expect to see you here." Tang Li's face was full of smiles.
"I don't know you, don't play that trick on me." Huo Shen said coldly.
When the people around saw Huo Shen's attitude, they immediately looked at Tang Li with contempt.
"It doesn't matter, we just admit it..." Tang Li was completely humiliated, but he had to give himself a way out.
But before he could finish his words, he was pushed aside by the people surrounding Huo Shen.
Lin Hong's face was filled with glory. He handed the scissors to Huo Shen with both hands, "Mr. Huo, the auspicious time for cutting has arrived. Since you have come today, please cut the Lin family's clothes yourself."
Huo Shen raised the corners of his lips slightly, as calm as a willow leaf in the spring breeze. "I came here today entirely for my friend, Lin Jiu. She is also a member of the Lin family, so I hope she can do the tailoring."
Huo Shen's words were well-reasoned and Lin Hong couldn't refute them.
Lin Yu suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and said, "No! I bought this piece of land, no one can take it away from me..."
Before Lin Yu could finish speaking, he was pushed aside by Lin Hong.
Huo Shen lowered his eyes, staring at Lin Jiu beside him, grabbed her delicate hand, and stuffed the scissors into her palm.
Lin Jiu had been standing outside for a long time, and his hands were cold.
The warm temperature instantly spread from the touch of fingertips to the heart and then spread to every part of the body.
Lin Jiu suddenly felt dazed.
For a moment, she thought about letting this big hand hold her and keep her warm.
Perhaps because she had never experienced such a touch before, her face gradually turned red, and her left thumb pinched her index finger hard.
When she found that Huo Shen was staring at her slightly flushed face, she wanted to escape and pull her hand back.
But his big hands were so strong, holding her tightly, making her unable to resist.
"Lin Jiu, you liar!"
This remark startled everyone, and they all looked towards the door.
A bald man was walking towards Lin Jiu who was at the ribbon-cutting scene, shouting,
"Lin Jiu, you promised me that if I didn't raise my bid during the auction, you'd give me five million. Now that the Lin Group has acquired this piece of land in the city center, you've turned your back on me and refused to pay me. Don't blame me for exposing you and embarrassing you now!"
