Chapter 76: Chapter 76 The Old Cadre Who Doesn’t Understand Romance
Hearing Qiao Yi’s question, Lu Yanchuan looked a bit puzzled, seemingly not expecting Qiao Yi to ask such a question.
“Don’t you know the usage of the main and sub invitations for today’s auction?”
Seeing Qiao Yi’s clueless expression, Lu Yanchuan explained after making eye contact for a mont.
“This year marks the 20th wedding anniversary of the auction’s organizers and his wife, and today happens to be their anniversary, so there are so special arrangents at the auction today. Although I don’t know what these special arrangents are, they will definitely be related to the anniversary.”
For this reason, this year, the holders of the main invitations mostly gave their sub invitations to their wives, girlfriends, or lovers, unlike previous years when they would bring business partners, friends, and family.
Lu Yanchuan thought Qiao Yi knew about this, so he intentionally gave Sun Keke’s invitation to Qiao Xin, but it turns out that Qiao Yi was unaware.
...
Then why did she give Sun Keke’s invitation to Qiao Xin?
“I thought it was just a simple auction, but there turns out to be such a reason behind it!”
Qiao Yi suddenly exclaid, her face showing a bit of regret as she frowned.
“It’s such a pity, I was thinking about getting rid of Qiao Xin yesterday, and using Ning Yuze to annoy Qiao Xin and Lu Ming a bit. How could such a good invitation get switched!”
If it hadn’t been switched, there would have been quite a spectacle!
Qiao Yi could not help but regret, even wanting to help Qiao Xin retrieve the previous invitation now.
Lu Yanchuan’s eyes flickered strangely, as if he had sothing to say, but hesitated and then chose not to speak.
Qiao Yi was too caught up in her regrets about not letting Qiao Xin experience the harshness of society, and did not notice Lu Yanchuan’s hesitation.
Upon arriving at the auction venue, because Lu Yanchuan showed the Diamond Card, he and Qiao Yi were directly welcod into the best booth on the upper floor.
The first floor had seats similar to those in a cinema, and there was a layer of booths on the second floor. Among these booths, the one occupied by Lu Yanchuan was the largest, and even looked a bit too spacious for two people.
They didn’t arrive early, and so people were already seated below, with a few booths on the second floor lit up.
But when the light in booth number one turned on, everyone simultaneously wondered if they were seeing things wrong!
Even if the Tian City Mayor ca here, he might not be able to enter booth number one. What kind of VIP, with an even higher status than the mayor, could it be?
The Mayor was indeed there, right next door in booth number two.
Upon hearing that soone had arrived next door, the Tian City Mayor couldn’t sit still.
He had just tried to get the position next door, but the auction staff insisted it was already reserved. Even his status as the mayor was useless; now that the person had finally arrived, the Tian City Mayor of course wanted to see who in Tian City dared to be more arrogant than him!
Qiao Yi heard a knock at the door, and of course, Lu Yanchuan heard it too, or rather, from the mont Lu Yanchuan prepared to use the Diamond Card to enter the auction, he had anticipated that soone would co to inquire.
“Please co in.”
As the door opened, the first thing the Tian City Mayor saw was the exquisitely luxurious decor of the booth. Although the two booths were right next to each other, the decor inside was worlds apart!
He only has a sofa and a carpet over there, how co this VIP room is like a luxurious living room!
“Hello, I am the Mayor of Tian City, I wonder… Mr. Lu?”
Lu Yanchuan stood up from the sofa, and the Tian City Mayor, of course, knew Mr. Lu from Capital City. When he saw that Mr. Lu was the person in the room, everything beca clear to him.
“Oh, it’s Mr. Lu, I’m really sorry to disturb you!”
Lu Yanchuan and the Tian City Mayor had t before during the bidding of the old harbor district project, so they were sowhat acquainted. The Tian City Mayor approached enthusiastically and chatted warmly with Lu Yanchuan.
Not only the Tian City Mayor ca, but also all the presentable people from the second-floor VIP rooms ca. When they saw Lu Yanchuan was in VIP room No.1, they no longer felt it strange, and after exchanging pleasantries, they dispersed.
Qiao Yi had been standing behind Lu Yanchuan as a decoration, but when she spotted the furiously twisted face of Gong Ting in the crowd, her smile faded a bit.
Gong Ting ca too? And it looks like she has a deep bone to pick with and Lu Yanchuan!
“Did you just see Gong Ting? She was glaring at you all the ti at the door! She is the first woman who t you and only wanted money instead of you, has your charm decreased?”
Qiao Yi teasingly glanced at Lu Yanchuan. After getting to know Lu Yanchuan, the won who appeared beside him were either madly in love with him or terrified of him. There hadn’t been anyone daring to glare at him with such a fierce expression.
But now there was, and Qiao Yi was curious to see what Gong Ting would do to Lu Yanchuan.
If there’s going to be a good show, she doesn’t mind giving Gong Ting a hand.
After four o’clock, the lights in the venue suddenly all turned on, then all went out, leaving only the lamp over the central auction podium.
From behind the thick curtains, today’s auctioneer walked out—a gorgeous woman in a red dress.
Even Qiao Yi felt tingles all over her body from the beauty, not to ntion those wolfish fellows below.
Thankfully, everyone was from a distinguished background. Even if they were howling inside, they still knew to maintain their elegance, only the applause was exceptionally enthusiastic.
Qiao Yi sneaked a look at Lu Yanchuan’s expression, but found that the man’s gaze didn’t waver at all, seeing the beauty on stage as if she was just a piece of wood.
Tsk! What an unromantic old bureaucrat!
Qiao Yi happily turned her head back, the gorgeous woman on stage had finished her opening speech and stepped down, and now the opening performance was underway.
Thus the saying “money makes the world go round” isn’t for nothing. When Qiao Yi saw a young idol famously styled as a youthful girl dancing energetically on stage, she realized her understanding of money was still too shallow.
With beauties, naturally there must be handso n. But just as Qiao Yi was trying to count whether the handso guys below had six-packs or eight-packs, suddenly her view darkened, and a large hand firmly blocked her sight.
“Hey hey hey! What are you doing?! You’re blocking my view of the show!”
Qiao Yi was anxious, using both hands to pull away Lu Yanchuan’s hand. It was the highlight of the show; missing it would be a pity!
However Qiao Yi’s slender arms were no match for Lu Yanchuan. By the ti Lu Yanchuan finally moved his hand away, the handso guys below had already picked up their clothes and left the stage.
Qiao Yi glared at Lu Yanchuan, this man was totally outrageous! When he was watching the beauty just now, she didn’t stop him, so why did he block her from watching the handso guys!
“Lu Yanchuan! You owe handso guys! You owe pecs, abs, and long legs!”
