Zhong Mingsheng pursed his lips when he heard this. Lan Xi was right. When he was drinking with the guy from the Shi family a few days ago, he also mentioned the Lan family's high-profile cooperation and projects recently.
The design department managed by Shi Tingshan and Lan Xi's design company also signed a long-term cooperation agreement on the authorization of the use of hand-dyeing technology.
It has to be said that Lan Xi has brought the Lan family to a new height within an impossible time.
Zhong Hua became more and more satisfied with Lan Xi. The little girl was very forward-looking and her methods were more sophisticated than Yulan's. She was ruthless and didn't give anyone a chance to breathe. The Lan family would definitely become better.
"Please move and sit over here! I'll arrange for someone to do the operation!" Lan Xi reached out and grabbed Zhong Hua's arm, smiling and pointing to the empty seat next to her.
Zhong Hua really didn't want to go back, so he nodded and sat down with his grandson.
The emcee walked over to Lan Xi with a small notebook, squatted down, and whispered a few words to her.
Lan Xi frowned, took the small notebook in her hand and read it once, then sneered: "Are you making a fool of me? Tell them that if there's a next time, the Lan family won't join in the fun!"
"Miss Lan..." The emcee wanted to say something. After all, she was just an employee and could not take responsibility if things were not done well.
Lan Xi glanced at her casually, and the pressure in her eyes made her stop talking in the middle of her words.
"Go ahead! With Lan Xi's personality, they didn't expect her to agree or come in person!"
Zhong Mingsheng, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to help the girl out, even giving her a kind smile to prevent her from not believing him.
The host bit her lip, stood up and turned to leave. She couldn't help but resent Lan Xi for having such a good background, but why her personality was so weird, making things difficult for her, a working person.
As if sensing something, Lan Xi looked at the host's back and raised a sarcastic smile.
"Don't bully the little girl too much. She is just following orders!" What Zhong Mingsheng disliked most was Lan Xi's always condescending attitude. There was no one in the world that she looked down upon.
Lan Xi didn't say anything, as if she didn't hear anything. Instead, Zhong Hua patted his grandson and gave him a warning look.
Zhong Mingsheng always knew that his grandmother was partial to him, so he hummed and said nothing more.
What followed was a series of speeches. Lan Xi was so sleepy that she yawned all over the place. Because there were media present, she had to lower her head and do it secretly.
Finally, there were group photos, autographs and interviews. These were Li Yulan's business. Lan Xi was sitting in the audience waiting for her, and Zhong Hua was still talking to her about some company matters.
Many people wanted to establish a relationship with Lan Xi and came to her one after another to establish a relationship with her.
"Miss Lan!" A timid voice came from not far away. The people surrounding Lan Xi quieted down and turned back.
Not far away, a girl was standing there, nervously pinching her skirt. When people saw that Lan Ting'an was not with her, they no longer suppressed their malice.
Lan Xi sat in her seat, looking at the girl through the crowd. Her hands on the table hung lazily, and the hairpin exposed in her hair shone in the light.
The girl came over, squeezed through the crowd, and squeezed in within everyone's sight.
The closer she got, the faster her heart beat and the more she felt suffocated. Standing in front of Lan Xi, she was so nervous that she couldn't breathe.
Lan Xi didn't say anything, but just looked at her quietly, her eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without any ripples.
"I am your father's woman!" The girl said this with all her courage, and her face turned red in an instant.
Lan Xi seemed to have not expected her to say that, and rarely did she show any emotion immediately.
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but burst out laughing, and then laughter broke out one after another.
The girl looked around. Everyone was looking at her, their emotions undisguised. She then looked at Lan Xi: "Miss Lan, are you just going to let these people laugh at the Lan family?"
As soon as these words came out, the laughter suddenly stopped. Yes! No matter how big the scandal was, it was still the Lan family's business. They were like this...
"You've done something that makes people laugh at you, so what's wrong with others laughing at you?" Lan Xi was not angry. She knew what the girl wanted to do. It might not be a provocation, but a sign of weakness.
Such words pierced the girl's heart like nails, reminding her that she became someone else's mistress because of her moral corruption.
"Every family has this kind of thing! You're just a bunch of foxes in sheep's clothing! You laugh at others without even looking at yourself!"
A surge of anger rose up in her, and the man behind her gave her the courage to fight back.
No matter what, she is Lan Ting'an's mistress, and not someone that anyone can laugh at!
"Oh! You have quite a temper!" Lan Xi raised her eyebrows, as if she was meeting a girl for the first time. This girl, who was so delicate that she could be blown away by a gust of wind, yet she knew how to act pretentiously.
Lan Xi's teasing made the girl lose the fight. She was afraid of her!
For some reason, she was not afraid of Li Yulan, she was afraid of her!
Lan Xi's expression suddenly turned cold as he looked her up and down. "If you had any sense, you would have known that it was inappropriate for you to appear at this occasion, but you showed up!"
That gaze seemed to be able to stick accurately to the girl's body through her clothes, making her so embarrassed that she had nowhere to hide.
"Ting'an asked me to come, and I couldn't refuse!" The girl lowered her head, feeling the increasingly unfriendly looks from the people around her, and her voice trembled as she spoke.
"Heh!" Lan Xi reached out to touch her belly. The girl took a step back nervously, protecting her belly tightly with both hands. Her eyes were filled with panic, like a deer drinking water in the jungle that was frightened by a hunter.
In the eyes of the aristocratic families, this behavior became the behavior of a small family that was not worthy of being mentioned in public.
