Chapter 534 Charity Gala (1)
On the day of the charity gala, Lu Jiaxin took a shower after a nap and then started styling her hair. She designed two evening dresses for herself, one was a black halterneck dress, and the spare one was a long Dielianhua cheongsam. The black evening gown was paired with antique jewelry bought by Nie Zhan, and the cheongsam was paired with jade jewelry.
After finishing her styling and makeup, Lu Jiaxin went upstairs and changed into evening clothes. When she walked downstairs, Miao Na praised: "The boss is so beautiful."
Not only is she beautiful, but she also has an amazing figure. Alas, although Mr. Nie is very kind, she still feels sorry for her boss. With such good conditions and such a young age, he could definitely fall in love a few more times. It would be a shame to die on the tree of Nie Zhan so early.
Yan Yijun said disgracefully: "I still think the boss looks good in professional attire."
This is what he said sincerely. Dressed in professional attire, Lu Jiaxin is smart and capable, with a spirit that few people have.
Miao Na gave him a big roll of her eyes, a country bumpkin who didn't appreciate it.
Nie Zhan looked at Lu Jiaxin and said with a smile: "So beautiful."
Lu Jiaxin looked at him in a gray suit and said with a smile: "You are also very handsome. A Zhan, We may be the most beautiful couple in the party tonight."
Miao Na said very flatteringly: "Boss, it's not possible. There is no one more beautiful than you or Boss Nie in the entire Hong Kong City. The handsome man is here."
She was so sweet that Lu Jiaxin couldn't bear to leave her. Unfortunately, Miao Na still did not change her words, saying that she did not want to stay in one place for too long and would leave when Xiaoxiao came back.
The charity party started at 5:30, and the auction was set at 7:30. Lu Jiaxin ate a small bowl of shrimp dumplings, put on makeup, and then went to the party with Nie Zhan in Phantom. Although dinner is provided there, I would like to eat something to satisfy my stomach and eat a little more there.
I called Zong Shimeng before setting off, and Zong Shimeng came as soon as they arrived. Seeing Lu Jiaxin's dress, Zong Shimeng smiled and said: "This dress of yours is very beautiful. If you have time, you can design a few for me to wear when attending banquets in the future."
Tonight Zong Shi Meng wore a champagne-colored long skirt, which was not as effective because of her round figure. Alas, women, they pay too much for their families and children.
"Okay."
The two of them were walking and talking. As soon as they entered the hall, someone called her: "Lu Jiaxin, you are coming to the auction too!"
Lu Jiaxin raised her head and looked at the person calling her. Unexpectedly, it was her college classmate Li Huini. She smiled and said: "Yes, I was given an invitation letter from the charity gala. It is obligatory to do charity."
Although I have never participated in group activities at school, most of the classmates in the class still know each other. . Li Huini is also a daughter of a wealthy family, but this girl does not have the arrogance of a wealthy daughter. Instead, she is intellectual and generous, and is very popular in the class.
Li Huini heard that she donated a lot of money to the mainland, but her company was not listed and thereforeThe donation was made in my own name, so it didn’t attract any criticism.
After saying hello to Zong Shimeng, Li Huini asked with a smile: "Jiaxin, there are a lot of good things tonight. I wonder which ones have you taken a fancy to?"
When Zong Shimeng heard that they were college classmates, he didn't bother them and chatted with someone he knew.
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "I donated a jade Ruyi."
She looked at the album of auction items and found nothing she liked. The more good things you have, the higher your vision will be.
The items in this auction are basically donated by people like her, so they cannot be rare items. Of course, since it is a charity auction, I will still buy a few things later.
Li Huini was very surprised: "You donated the jade Ruyi? My mother liked it very much and asked me to take a photo."
After chatting for a while, Li Huini put together a few A friend introduced her to them, both men and women, both rich and young. One of the men is tall and handsome, and he is also funny, especially his pair of peach blossom eyes with tenderness and affection. It is easy to be intoxicated when he looks at you, but these people do not include Lu Jiaxin.
Lu Jiaxin didn’t like the way the boy looked at her, and he wasn’t interested in their topic, so she walked away on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
The peach-eyed man said with some regret; "This Miss Lu is quite aloof."
Li Huini frowned and warned: "Don't act recklessly, Lu The young lady is not one of those little girls you have dated before, who were charmed by you with just a few words."
Those little girls were fascinated by her face and mouth. But Lu Jiaxin is not a person who puts love first. Lu Jiaxin is very clear-headed, and you can tell by looking at the Nie Zhan she is looking for. Handsome, wealthy and dedicated, he can also help her make money. Alas, she also wanted to find a boyfriend like this, but unfortunately she couldn't find one.
The peach-eyed man said: "I can't serve such a woman."
He could clearly see the disgust in Lu Jiaxin's eyes just now, so why would he get along with her?
Nie Zhan saw Lu Jiaxin and said with a smile: "Why don't you chat with your classmate for a while?"
In one year of middle school and three years of college, only one of them was good friends. Choi Ji-hye is studying law at Harvard. It's rare to see her talking to her college classmates, so I hope they can chat for a while longer.
Lu Jiaxin said: "The man next to her looked at me with what he thought was an affectionate look, which made me sick."
"Who is it?" Nie Zhan said in a bad tone. asked. He actually wanted to pry into his corner and seek death!
Lu Jiaxin saw that he was angry and said with a smile: "It's just a clown, don't worry about it."
The auction will be held on time at 7:30. Because the auction items are all donated, there is a wide variety of items, including jade Ruyi, privately customized watches, clay pots and jadeware, jewelry, and calligraphy by famous contemporary artists.
Lu Jiaxin fell in love with a diamond brooch. The shape and workmanship of this brooch were very unique. She spent 200,000 to get it. In fact, the price of this brooch is more than 100,000 yuan. However, the charity auction is intended toRaise money for charity, so everyone tacitly buys at a premium.
Jade Ruyi was shot behind the brooch, with an asking price of HK$500,000. Hearing the price, Lu Jiaxin was very surprised: "Why is the starting price only 500,000?"
Zong Shimeng said funnyly: "The Ruyi jade you donated belonged to the concubine of the Qing Dynasty emperor. This Ruyi jade The material is of high quality, the meaning is good (good luck, everything goes well), and it is an antique, so the starting price is naturally higher. I have always wanted to ask you, why did you donate such a good thing? ”
Lu Jiaxin did not hide it: "I have something better than this. When it comes to charity, the more money you raise, the better."
Thinking about what I saw in my previous life. News, Lu Jiaxin lowered her voice and asked: "I heard that some people will kick their pockets for charity money. Tung Wah Group of Hospitals shouldn't do it, right?"
Like the Red Cross, because it has done too much Things that have no bottom line lose credibility, and eventually people are no longer willing to donate money to it. How can I enrich the pockets of those moths with the money I have worked so hard to save so that they can enjoy hot and spicy food?
Zong Shimeng knew her concerns and said: "Don't worry! The whereabouts of these donations will be announced at the end of the year, and those people dare not reach out randomly."
