Chapter 264: Change of Attitude
Chu Siran ran over from somewhere. Maybe he came too hurriedly. When he stopped in front of Lin Yilan, he looked a little out of breath.
Lin Yilan looked at Chu Siran in front of her with amusement, "Why are you so anxious to find me? Are you afraid that I'll get lost? If it were in the past, you worrying about me would be understandable, but now I'm slowly getting used to the people at these banquets, not to mention Gao Xianyang is by my side. Are you really that worried about me?"
Faced with Lin Yilan's teasing, Chu Siran didn't want to argue with Lin Yilan at all. She rolled her eyes at Lin Yilan and started talking about what she was most worried about.
"Yilan, tell me, did you run into Huo Juncheng just now? Let's go back this time. I miscalculated and didn't think everything through. If we had faced Huo Juncheng head-on, we would definitely be at a disadvantage."
As Chu Siran spoke, he was about to step forward to pull Lin Yilan, but Lin Yilan cleverly dodged him.
"I just met Huo Juncheng, and I feel pretty good about him. Don't tell me about Siran, I think this feeling is really good. He is still in contact with his ex-girlfriend, so why can't I be with other boys? Although I may be faking it here, but seeing Huo Juncheng's frustrated look, I feel relieved."
Hearing Lin Yilan say this, Chu Siran didn't react for a moment. When he wanted to ask Lin Yilan what had just happened, Lin Yilan just smiled mysteriously at Chu Siran, and his attention was attracted by the snacks on the side.
He simply put Chu Siran aside and ignored her, focusing all his attention on the tea and snacks beside him. Gao Xianyang glanced at Chu Siran, then at Lin Yilan who was eating happily.
He smiled at Chu Siran and was about to go find Lin Yilan.
However, Gao Xianyang was stopped in time by Chu Siran, "Wait a minute, tell me what happened just now."
Gao Xianyang looked at Chu Siran, his face wrinkled because of Chu Siran's words. He looked so aggrieved. However, he still obediently repeated to Chu Siran the whole story of what had just happened between Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng from beginning to end.
Seeing Chu Siran's shocked expression after hearing his retelling, Gao Xianyang smiled at her and then whispered teasingly in her ear, "Aren't you two good friends? Why don't I think Yilan is an emotionally dull girl?"
Gao Xianyang finished speaking and without waiting for Chu Siran's reaction, he went to find Lin Yilan who was eating cake not far away, leaving her standing there in a daze. How could this be completely different from what she had imagined?
Lin Yilan actually said that directly to Huo Juncheng, and could fluently explain her relationship with Gao Xianyang in front of Huo Juncheng, and she could actually act so realistically.
No, no, it seems that I really underestimated Lin Yilan before. I need to have a good talk with Lin Yilan. Chu Siran thought so and was about to catch up to find Lin Yilan.
However, seeing Huo Juncheng approaching Lin Yilan, Chu Siran wisely stopped. She was very curious whether Lin Yilan was really as neat, neat and free as Gao Xianyang said in front of Huo Juncheng.
However, the result disappointed Chu Siran. When Lin Yilan saw Huo Juncheng approaching, she simply pulled Gao Xianyang and turned away, without giving Huo Juncheng and Lin Yilan any chance to talk.
Alas, it seems that I won’t be able to see this scene. Chu Siran thought so and sighed slightly.
…
The banquet lasted for a while, and before we knew it, it was time for the highlight of the day, which was the auction.
An auction, as the name suggests, is a place where the highest bidder wins the item.
Sometimes, a product is obviously not worth that much money, but some people, for the sake of face, will often increase its price tenfold or more. Everyone here is already accustomed to such scenes.
Although most of the items sold at the auction are valuable jewelry and precious cultural relics, they have no substantial effect on the company presidents who are engaged in business.
However, such an auction can also indirectly reflect the worth of a CEO and the strength of his company. After all, a small CEO with a small company would not have the courage to spend a fortune on a gem.
Huo Juncheng and Jenny naturally sat in the front row because of Huo Juncheng. Lin Yilan and Chu Siran came this time as the founders of the "Yi Ran" milk tea shop.
There was still a certain gap between them and those big companies, so their position was naturally a bit behind. But it didn't matter, since the two of them hadn't come here for this auction anyway.
It’s actually quite nice to just watch the show quietly from the back.
Chu Siran couldn't contain his curiosity and began to ask about the specific developments between Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng. Lin Yilan curled her lips and pretended to be very angry.
"Haven't you already asked Gao Xianyang? Since he told you everything, why are you still asking me? Besides, it's really nothing. I just told Huo Juncheng that if he likes Jenny, then he can marry Jenny, and I'll give up my position as the Huo family's young lady."
Although Chu Siran had heard Zheng Ronglan say this once, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard these words from Lin Yilan's mouth again.
Especially Lin Yilan said all this with an indifferent look on her face.
"Yilan...that..." Chu Siran stuttered and couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time. Lin Yilan was beside Chu Siran, looking at Chu Siran quietly, not in a hurry, waiting quietly for Chu Siran to speak next.
Chu Siran swallowed his saliva, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "You really don't have any feelings for Huo Juncheng at all? He is not clear with Jenny now, so you are really not sad at all. But before, you would be sad about Chu Xi and Huo Juncheng's affairs."
"Well... if you ask me what my feelings are towards Huo Juncheng, I can't really put it into words. If you say I have no feelings at all, that's impossible. If you say I like him, it doesn't seem like that either. As for why I was sad about Chu Xi and Huo Juncheng's affairs, and why I was upset about Wang Yimo and Huo Juncheng's affairs, I don't really understand."
Lin Yilan scratched her head, racking her brains, and finally came up with a possible reason. "Maybe he feels that I am from the Huo family and Huo Juncheng's fiancée, so seeing him with other women makes him uncomfortable. But in the past two days, I have thought it through."
"What have you figured out?"
"Think clearly that my life is my own. I can't really be willing to be Huo Juncheng's fiancée just because of the constraints of my identity as his fiancée. Time and time again, I'm really fed up."
