What a disgrace …
(The new book is on the right track and the plot is about to explode. I hope everyone will support me.)
After returning to Shilin Huayuan, Qin Sheng changed into the bright and beautiful outfit that Xia Ding had bought for him. As the saying goes, clothes make the man. After changing into this outfit, Qin Sheng really had some style. At least he could pass off the fake as the genuine one and be mistaken for a rich second generation or a successful young man.
As soon as he came out of Shilin Huayuan, Xia Ding called and said that he would come to pick him up immediately.
Qin Sheng had nothing to do, so he went to the bookstore to kill time. When the eccentric Xiao Le saw Qin Sheng, he started to mock him. "Yo, young man, you're dressed so well. Are you going on a blind date?"
Qin Sheng was already a regular here. After greeting the other two employees, he replied, "Do you think I need to go on a blind date? Your Brother Qin, I'm loved by everyone. The number of beauties chasing after me can line up from the Bund to Pudong. "
"I've seen bragging, but I've never seen someone as good at it as you." Xiao Le rolled his eyes. However, he did not neglect Qin Sheng and poured him a glass of water as usual.
Qin Sheng strolled around the bookstore with a glass of water in his hand. He was most interested in the old books that others did not want. Many of the books had the notes and insights of the previous owners. This allowed Qin Sheng to guess the thoughts of others while reading them. Coupled with his own understanding, he would have a deeper understanding. If there was something he did not understand, he could also be enlightened.
Ten minutes later, Xia Ding's new Aston Martin stopped at the entrance of the bookstore. Qin Sheng received a call and came out. Before he left, he even teased Xiao Le.
After watching Qin Sheng get into the Aston Martin and leave, the bookstore's cashier, Brother Liu, said curiously, "I didn't expect Qin Sheng to be so rich. Xiao Le, why don't you let him be your boyfriend?"
"Brother Liu, you're joking with me again. How can rich people like them like an ordinary girl like me?" Xiao Le said coquettishly. Their bookstore's business was not good. However, Xiao Le had a good personality and had a good relationship with the regular customers.
Brother Liu laughed. "I just said it casually. You really took it seriously. Seems like you're interested in Qin Sheng."
"Brother Liu, that's enough. I'm going to ignore you." Xiao Le left with a red face.
On the way to the charity banquet, Xia Ding, who was the driver, sighed and said, "Sigh, Boss, I regret it. If you go out in this outfit, you will completely steal my limelight. At that time, people will think that I am your driver or bodyguard."
"Don't be talkative. No one knows me in that place. I'm just freeloading and seeing the world at the same time. There must be a lot of people who know you. How can I steal your limelight?" Qin Sheng said angrily.
Xia Ding said cheerfully, "Why don't I introduce you to a few beautiful women? With your natural condition, you might catch the eye of a fair, rich, and beautiful woman. At that time, all the brothers will depend on you to make a fortune."
"F * ck off," Qin Sheng scolded with a smile.
"That's true. You have Beauty Han by your side. Why would you care about others?" Xia Ding continued to tease Qin Sheng.
The banquet started at 7: 30 pm. Whether it was the organizer or the caterer, they were all well-known organizations in Shanghai. Therefore, this time, many so-called celebrities and dignitaries were invited. Everyone was also here to support each other.
The banquet was held at Yuerong Manor on the Bund. They had booked a banquet hall and the balcony of Yuerong Manor. The final charity auction would be held in the banquet hall. However, Qin Sheng felt that the weather was too cold for those beautiful women in evening gowns to stay on the balcony.
Just as Xia Ding and Qin Sheng set off for Yuerong Manor on the Bund, a beautiful woman with a cold temperament just came out of Pudong Airport. She had been in a bad mood recently, so she came to Shanghai to relax.
Her mother had passed away when she was young. As her relationship with her father was too stiff, she had always been closer to her mother's relatives, such as her grandmother who doted on her the most, her uncle, and her aunt. Recently, her grandmother had been living in Shanghai. She missed her a little, so she came to Shanghai.
When she came out of the airport, the person who picked her up was the second son of her aunt. He was an ignorant and incompetent playboy. Compared to his brother who went to Xinjiang directly after graduating from military school, he really worried the family a lot. Fortunately, he was more strict, otherwise, she did not know what kind of trouble he would get into. Every time she saw this cousin, she was quite helpless.
"Sister, long time no see, I really miss you. You are the most beautiful sister in the universe, and you have become even more beautiful. How can other women live like this?" As soon as he saw his cousin, Zhu Jiayou began to flatter her with his ability to make girls go to heaven. If he was happy, maybe his cousin would give him some pocket money. After all, his cousin was the general manager of his uncle's company, so she was very rich.
"Zhu Jiayou, you don't have to flatter me. Don't worry, this time I definitely won't give you pocket money. Your aunt has told me all about your stupid things and specially reminded me." The beauty snorted coldly, but she enjoyed her cousin's words very much. Since her brother disappeared many years ago, she had been treating this cousin as her biological brother. It seemed that she wanted to wantonly vent all the love she had for her brother on him. Maybe it was just a kind of sustenance. Qin Ran often thought that if her brother did not disappear, he would be 25 or 26 years old now.
Qin Ran often thought that if her brother hadn't gone missing, he would have been 25 or 26 years old by now. She didn't know if he was alive or dead. She didn't know how he was doing now. She didn't know which university he was studying at, what kind of job he was doing, whether he was doing well at work, did he have a girlfriend, was his girlfriend beautiful, was he married, and did he give birth to a little nephew or daughter for her?
Every time she thought of these, she felt a little sad. Everyone did not understand why she was still not married when she was already in her early thirties. It was because she had sworn that if she could not find her brother, she would never get married in this life.
"Sister, sister, my dear sister, I'm not flattering you. I'm saying this from the bottom of my heart. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't I miss you?" Zhu Jiayou, who had just graduated from the university, said with a sad face. Recently, he was really short of money. Due to his family's identity, he could not get any money from his family at all. So he could only think of ways to cheat from his relatives and friends. Grandma was too smart, it was too difficult to trick her. As long as he did not get tricked by his grandma, he could only rely on this cousin.
Qin Ran was amused by this guy. She did not know whether to laugh or cry. She said, "Alright, alright. I've been in Shanghai recently. Based on your performance, if you perform well, I may consider it."
"Sister, don't worry. As long as you need anything, I, Little Pomelo, will be at your service at any time," Zhu Jiayou said happily.
Qin Ran shook her head and said, "Drive carefully. Are grandma and aunt at home?"
"Grandma is at home, but your aunt went to Yuerong Manor on the Bund to participate in a charity auction. She also told me to bring you directly to Yuerong Manor after I pick you up."
Qin Ran was a little puzzled. "What for?"
"Kid, I don't understand either. I'm just following orders," Zhu Jiayou replied. This guy's words were really interesting and smooth.
Qin Ran thought for a while and finally decided, "Forget it, I won't go. I'll go to see grandma first." "Sister, don't make things difficult for me. This is your aunt's order. I'm just following orders. If I can't satisfy her, I'll be in serious trouble in the future."
Qin Ran could not stand this guy anymore. She had no choice but to agree. She did not know what her aunt was planning.
At Yuerong Manor on the Bund, Qin Sheng and Xia Ding had already arrived. They first went to the banquet hall to register and verify their identities. Qin Sheng saw that there were quite a number of celebrities here today. Many people were taking photos with them. They were all relatively popular stars, not those who just wanted to gain popularity.
"Boss, if you're interested in any of them, I can help you later. Don't think too highly of them. Everyone's story is not simple. I have a few friends who work in the film industry. They f * cking have a lot of unspoken rules. Not only that, they even do things like pimps." Xia Ding saw that Qin Sheng was staring at a star not far away and said with a look of disdain. Prostitutes are heartless and actors are heartless. This was the principle of the ancient times.
Qin Sheng said disdainfully, "Why do I feel like you're a pimp now?"
"Hahaha, look at what you're saying. I'm just thinking about your happiness. I don't care about others," Xia Ding said righteously.
The two of them took a glass of champagne from the waiter's plate and walked inside unhurriedly. Xia Ding asked with great interest, "Boss, do you want me to introduce you to some friends?"
"No need. You go ahead with your work. I'll walk around so that I won't disturb your hunting." Qin Sheng knew that Xia Ding was here on a mission from the Old Master. He would definitely have to greet many acquaintances. If he brought him along, it would be somewhat troublesome.
"Okay, then you can walk around first. I'll greet those elders and friends. Later, we'll go to the balcony to play. This is the place for the elderly. Above is the battlefield for the young," Xia Ding said with a smile. Boss was still the boss. He was more considerate. This was also the reason why he asked Qin Sheng to accompany him. He felt that with Boss's character, he was most suitable for an official career. He was observant, sophisticated, and capable. He would definitely go far in the future. He was more suitable than his second brother.
After Xia Ding left, Qin Sheng wandered around here. Anyway, there were delicious food and wine inside. He had not eaten at night, so he had to fill his stomach first. As for those who came here, they were all exchanging resources with each other and making friends. That was why the host of the banquet not only booked the banquet hall but also used the balcony to provide different occasions and conditions for different groups of people of different ages.
Qin Sheng found a relatively remote place and looked at everyone present. He could see that they were in different circles. Everyone was talking and laughing with each other. Everything was based on interests and status. Naturally, no one would pay attention to a small character like him. Moreover, no one knew him. Naturally, everyone would greet their acquaintances first. Then, they would wait for the opportunity to act and look for different prey.
However, Qin Sheng was wrong about this. Because he also had acquaintances here. Not long after he entered the banquet hall, he was seen by a man.
The man was not in a hurry to greet Qin Sheng. Instead, he looked at Qin Sheng quietly. When Qin Sheng hid in the corner and only cared about eating and drinking, the man almost laughed out loud. It was really an unconventional move.
Therefore, after chatting with several important elders and friends for a while, the man found an opportunity to run over. He held a wine glass and teased Qin Sheng with a smile, "How many days have you not eaten?"
Qin Sheng, who was stuffing a piece of cake into his mouth, was stunned. Obviously, this was said to him. He raised his head subconsciously and saw the man standing in front of him clearly. He almost laughed out loud.
