【Starts at 7 o'clock, you should arrive early! 】
Perhaps knowing that Lan Xi would not answer the phone, Li Yulan sent a message to her directly.
Indeed, Lan Xi took a look at it and threw it aside. She was going to be the last one to arrive anyway, so why go so early!
She slowly changed her makeup, slowly changed into an evening dress, stood in front of the mirror with a curling iron, slowly curled her hair, measured it, and decisively found a jade hairpin to tie it up.
This hairpin was bought at an auction before. I heard it was from the previous dynasty.
When the car stopped at the door of the charity dinner, it was exactly 6:55. Li Yulan was already waiting at the door. When she saw Lan Xi appear, she didn't say anything, but just walked in with her in silence.
No complaints, no lessons, no words!
"Mrs. Lan, Miss Lan! Please follow me, your seats are here!" When the emcee saw the two people come in, she hurried forward to greet them.
Because it was not a large-scale party, everyone was dressed simply. However, because this party had a long history and was backed by the government, the scene was very quiet and people spoke in low voices.
As soon as she sat down, Lan Xi took a casual glance and saw Lan Ting'an sitting not far away with a girl. He reached out and took a cherry from the plate and fed it to the girl with a very doting expression.
"Ha!" Lan Xi sneered, then looked at Li Yulan: "Has Lao Deng got another new recruit?"
Her voice was not low, and everyone at the table heard it. They looked in the direction Lan Xi was looking, their faces full of disgust. Only Lan Ting'an would bring his mistress with him to cheat people all day long.
In a wealthy family, face is the most important thing. It is not appropriate for Lan Ting'an to bring his mistress to such a formal occasion!
Li Yulan didn't look at it. After all, she had already seen it: "The taste hasn't changed!"
Her meaning was very clear. The girl looked very much like Liu Xiyue when she was young, and even her temperament was a bit similar.
"Really? I wonder if your courage will change as time goes by!" Lan Xi said lightly and looked away.
The host came on stage and started the process. The charity work done by the Lan family every year was enough to get a seat on the committee, but Lan Xiangfu was not interested in these things. A symbolic participation every year was already a great honor.
So after Zhao Li expressed his gratitude to the Lan family, the party began.
"Mrs. Lan!" A woman behind her suddenly spoke and greeted Li Yulan.
Li Yulan turned around and looked at him. Her usually serious face looked very peaceful today. "Who are you?"
"Excuse me, I just want to ask which project the Lan family plans to undertake this year. We would like to emulate it!" The woman smiled stiffly. She was a little scared because she heard that Mrs. Lan had a bad temper.
Li Yulan didn't say anything. She looked at Lan Xi: "What do you think?"
"Why are you asking me? I don't understand these things!" Lan Xi was watching the performance on the stage without looking at her.
Everyone at the table looked at each other. They had heard a little about the relationship of the Lan family, but they didn't dare to speak when they actually saw it. But looking at Li Yulan's attitude towards Lan Xi, everyone had a certain understanding of her status. It seemed that the Lan couple would have to retreat to the second line.
The girl next to Lan Ting'an saw Li Yulan when she came in. She also knew Lan Xi who was walking with her. She had secretly visited Lan's official website before.
Now that I see her up close, I realize that she is really beautiful. The dark blue slit fishtail skirt she is wearing shimmers under the light, like a charming mermaid leaping into the world, so beautiful and eye-catching.
She couldn't help but touch her belly and began to imagine whether her child would also be beautiful in the future.
"Come, have a drink of water!" Thinking in her heart, Lan Ting'an had already handed her a glass of water and gently coaxed her to drink.
The girl's cheeks flushed as she took the water cup and sipped it: "Don't do that, there are so many people watching us!"
"Just watch!" Lan Ting'an said indifferently. He knew what the outside world thought of him, so what.
As long as he has the support of the Lan family, no matter how long it takes, these people can only smile when they face him.
Missing the girl's figure, Lan Ting'an looked at Lan Xi and snorted in his heart. Even if Lan Qi was disabled, there would be new ones born. He didn't believe that he couldn't cure her.
[Look at me again! I'll dig out your eyes!]
The phone vibrated and a message from Lan Xi appeared on the page. Lan Ting'an cursed softly and turned off the screen.
After a while, the organizer of the charity dinner came to Lan Xi's table to toast.
"Nice to meet you again, Miss Lan!" Zhao Qing greeted Lan Xi with a smile in the crowd.
Lan Xi looked up at him, reached out to pick up the wine glass beside her, and slowly stood up: "Mr. Zhao! Long time no see! Is everything going well?"
The people at the same table heard the interaction between the two and exchanged glances quietly. Even Li Yulan looked at Lan Xi with a hint of inquiry.
Zhao Qing reached out and clinked glasses with Lan Xi, smiling and saying, "Miss Lan, don't worry about your investment. I will keep a close eye on it and ensure there are no problems at all!"
Lan Xi looked at the man in front of her, wearing a well-ironed suit and smiling politely, but she knew that this man was much more powerful. How many people coming down from above were simple?
"Really? Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Zhao!"
The organizers looked smiling, but inside they were in turmoil. How did Lan Xi know this person? Judging from their conversation, they seemed to be treating each other as equals?
"Ms. Lan, Mrs. Lan, thank you both for coming. I would like to thank the Lan family for their help with the projects over the past year!" The manager of the organizing committee stepped forward, touched Li Yulan, and said with a slight bow.
Some projects are shelved, and the state will organize charitable organizations to attract investment. Lan's is one of the few companies that will send technical personnel to assist and help find partners after investing.
