Chapter 244 Vanity
The only five-star hotel in Taipei City is currently the only five-star hotel in Grand Hyatt. Various luxury cars are slowly parked at the entrance of the hotel lobby. All the men and women walking down the car are in gorgeous clothes. A discerning person can tell at a glance that there is a dinner for rich families. However, the scale and luxury of tonight's banquet are much higher than that of ordinary banquets. That's because tonight's banquet was a charity auction dinner organized by the wife of the new Taipei Mayor Chen Abian. As a dinner of such a heavyweight, of course, those who can attend tonight will not be ordinary people.
A black Mercedes-Benz took the lead, and the black Rolls-Royce following behind Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped in front of the hotel lobby. After seeing the Rolls-Royce in front stop, two Mercedes-Benz behind the nave of the convoy also stopped.
As the door of the Rolls-Royce opened, the strong bodyguards in three Mercedes-Benz cars, wearing black suits, immediately got off the car and started to be on guard. However, the bodyguards in these three cars were also very interesting, with black, white and yellow colors one color one car.
Hou Wenjun, wearing a dark red striped suit, led Xiao Qiang, who was wearing a white slim-fitting banquet skirt beside him, slowly walked down from the Rolls-Royce.
The two of them walked hand in hand and slowly into the door of the second floor banquet hall of Grand Hyatt Hotel. As the organizer, Mrs. Chen, who was standing at the door to welcome the guests, was stunned for a moment when she looked at the golden boy and jade girl who were slowly walking in front of her. Before she could speak, Mrs. Chen's assistant whispered to her ears. "The man is Hou Wenjun, and the woman is not very clear."
Mrs. Chen nodded her head very naturally and said that after she knew it, she looked at Hou Wenjun and the others who were approaching her with a smile on her face and said, "Hello, Hou Sheng, welcome to you. I am Chen Tan Wenhui, Director-General of the Universal Fund. Please raise your hands tonight."
Hou Wenjun also held Chen Tan Wenhui's hand with a smile and said, "Madam Chen, you are polite, Ajun is unwilling to be the last one to do charity." As he said that, he let go of Chen Tan Wenhui's hand and introduced Xiao Qiang beside him.
Xiao Qiang, who has experienced many scenes, is very good at being a human being, and immediately introduced himself in a few words.
Chen Tan Wenhui smiled and responded to Xiao Qiang's words before looking at Hou Wenjun and said, "Please please in Hou Sheng. Ah Bian will be very happy to know that Hou Sheng is here." After saying that, he turned to the assistant beside him in a voice that was not very good, just as Hou Wenjun could hear, and ordered, "Take Hou Sheng to the main table seat." After saying that, he turned around and looked at Hou Wenjun with apologized smile and said, "Sorry, Hou Sheng, I have to greet other guests here. I'm negligent."
When Hou Wenjun heard this, he waved his hand and said, "Mrs. Chen is so polite. It seems that Ajun will not be able to bleed tonight." As he said that, Hou Wenjun laughed, nodded again, nodded to greet Chen Tan Wenhui, and then followed the assistant in front into the banquet hall.
This is the first time Chen Abian and Hou Wenjun meet tonight, but the two have been together for a long time (I have seen each other's photos and information). After meeting, they quickly became hot. Hou Wenjun came early, and the only ones in this main table are he and Chen Abian.
Hou Wenjun also knew that Chen Abian was very busy tonight. After greeting him for a few words, he directly expressed his purpose tonight.
"I think Brother Long, I have already reported to you. This time Ajun comes to Taiwan for business, so please help me." Hou Wenjun spoke directly without any concern about Xiao Qiang beside him.
Hou Wenjun was not concerned. But Chen Abian, as a promising political star, was concerned. Chen Abian immediately smiled shyly and did not speak up Hou Wenjun's words.
Hou Wenjun smiled, gently patted Xiao Qiang's back of his hand beside him, and leaned into her ear and said, "You go and see the items tonight first. If you like them, tell me."
Xiao Qiang understood what Hou Wenjun meant, and immediately smiled apologetically at Chen Abian and walked towards the display area of tonight's lots.
Seeing Xiao Qiang leaving, Chen Abian looked at Hou Wenjun with a smile on his face and said, "Hou Sheng, you should also know that eating too much will cause you to choke. I am still optimistic about Taichung Infrastructure Company in this section of Taipei."
Hou Wenjun put away the smile on his face, looked at Chen Abian coldly and waved his hand, "Of course I am optimistic about this company, the question is, does this company dare to come and bid? You can play with me, but you can't grab my play. Mayor Chen, you should be very clear about my personality."
Chen Abian also showed a serious expression on his face when he heard this. Looking at the young man in his twenties in front of him fell into deep thought, it was obvious that Hou Wenjun's attitude was very firm and determined to fight with him. Chen Abian had to consider the worst result and not compromise. The two sides were afraid that the war would start tonight.
Chen Abian thought that it was not Hou Wenjun's threat. He was a mayor of Taipei, so of course he would not be afraid of him. What he thought of was what Mr. Jin said to himself in the afternoon, "Hou Wenjun is determined to win the eight sections this time, and he has the support of Li and Hui behind him. It is difficult to seize food from the tiger's mouth. I think our vision should not be focused on Hou Wenjun's side, after all, there are still ten sections to bid. Ke Zhihua from the Sanlian Gang has already agreed, and the two sides have worked together to grab the remaining ten sections. After all, it is difficult to grab and offend people when you go to grab Hou Wenjun. Besides, what if you really want to grab one or two sections from his eight sections? What should you do if you do other sections? I think it's better to be kind and make money. We follow him, and we can play whatever he plays, and let him lead the way in front of him."
After Chen Abian quickly considered gains and losses again, he looked at Hou Wenjun and said with a smile, "Section 3, 7, 8, and 11, if you can help, I can also help you in your business in Taipei City in the future."
After hearing Chen Abian's words, Hou Wenjun quickly recalled the information of these four sections. Hou Wenjun immediately frowned. These four sections can be said to be the most difficult four sections to do, all of which are high mountain areas. Hou Wenjun's hand unnaturally began to tap gently on the table. After thinking about it, Chen Abian said, "Who suggested you choose these four sections?" This is definitely someone who wants to play with him. It's not that Hou Wenjun doesn't know that this group of people want to play behind him, but in this way of playing these four mountain sections, they really have to cut corners and reduce the cost of the project. Once something happens, it's not a trivial matter (most of Hou Wenjun's eight sections are flat ground, and if they are broken, they are just cracking the road surface and sinking the foundation.).
Chen Abian frowned after hearing Hou Wenjun's words. Although he didn't know what Hou Wenjun meant, Hou Wenjun's words should be very obvious, and there was something wrong with these four sections.
Chen Abian, who had been thinking for nearly a minute, then said, "If it were you, what segment would you choose?"
Chen Abian asked Hou Wenjun instead, and the essence was taken away by himself, and the rest was not a good section. It was just a question of how many mountains were. There were also ways to attack him.
Hou Wenjun immediately smiled slightly and said, "If I didn't say anything, Mayor Chen is about to start. I'll go and check out the items tonight." After that, he nodded and greeted Chen Abian to leave.
Looking at Hou Wenjun's back as he left, Chen Abian smiled. Li Shuanhui is making a fortune now, so he also hopes to take the line between Hou Wenjun. As for the Black Dragon Club, he is going to give Hou Wenjun as a gift. Longda must die tonight. Regardless of whether Hou Wenjun has any plans to unify the underground forces in Taiwan, Chen Abian will push him.
Xiao Qiang walked to the display cabinet of the lot and looked at the models standing in front of the display cabinet to introduce the lot. Her vanity made her feel like she was feeling from head to toe.
Li Xiaoqi is the model who replaced Xiao Qiang tonight. When she received the company's emergency notification in the morning, Li Xiaoqi also had a sense of secret pleasure in replacing Xiao Qiang herself. Xiao Qiang has always been using the best resources and doing the best job in the company. Without models in the company, she is not jealous of her.
Now when Li Xiaoqi was watching Mayor Chen's charity banquet appearing like a man, she was also stunned. It turned out that she was not replacing Xiao Qiang, but that she was the guest of the banquet tonight.
Of course, Li Xiaoqi also knows that Xiao Qiang has a big shot behind her, and it is not too strange that she appears here tonight. What Li Xiaoqi wants to see is who the big shot behind Xiao Qiang is, preferably an old and ugly old turtle.
Although I thought a lot, when Xiao Qiang really walked to the display cabinet he was in charge, Li Xiaoqi still smiled very professionally and greeted Xiao Qiang. "Xiao Qiang, you are here too, this pair of exhibits are good."
Xiao Qiang looked at Li Xiaoqi and smiled proudly, and said in an extremely arrogant voice, "Oh, please introduce it."
Although Li Xiaoqi disdains Xiao Qiang's style in her heart, she still smiles on her face and says, "Okay, this exhibit is a famous painting donated by Vice President Li's wife and Ms. Wang. This painting is made by Song, a master of contemporary Chinese painting in Taiwan."
Xiao Qiang looked at Li Xiaoqi in front of him and waved his hand gently and said, "Okay, I'm not interested in this painting. I'll go to another booth to see it." As he said that, he wanted to turn around and leave, he seemed to suddenly think of something. He turned his head and looked at Li Xiaoqi and said, "It's great to replace me, but I feel even more happy when I see you standing here." His colleagues are enemies, and it can be seen that the two have accumulated a lot of conflicts in their daily work.
Li Xiaoqi heard Xiao Qiang's sarcasm and gritted her teeth and smiled fiercely. This woman was still so annoying. Li Xiaoqi secretly pissed herself off in her heart. She was a shameless person, and she was just a mistress kept by someone.
In fact, Li Xiaoqi is also very successful and has been cleansing herself since her debut. Although models only make money by walking on the show with their bodies (models in the 1980s can’t make much money, which is a new thing in Taiwan), Li Xiaoqi will never use her body to make money with others. So she always looked down on Xiao Qiang in the company and thinks she is just a mistress supported by others.
Xiao Qiang looked at Li Xiaoqi who was suppressing his anger with a smile. When he slowly walked past Li Xiaoqi's side, he gently put his hand on Li Xiaoqi's dress and said in an extremely disdainful voice, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just a bargain." After that, he turned around and left the development platform.
Xiao Qiang is really very happy now. Li Xiaoqi is doing things against her in the company all day long. She didn’t humiliate her when she found an opportunity. In fact, after all, these two people are just a small conflict between women due to their attitude towards life and workplace attitude, and they are not considered a grudge.
Li Xiaoqi looked at Xiao Qiang's back as she left, and the tears hanging in her eyes could no longer help but slid down slowly.
Li Xiaoqi is a good girl, but she just entered the wrong circle. But such a good girl is not sincerely pursuing her, such as Lian Wenbin, who accompanied her parents to attend this charity dinner tonight.
Lian Wenbin, who had just accompanied his parents in, was bored and naked in the booth when he suddenly found his goddess Li Xiaoqi and walked over happily.
When he walked closer and watched the goddess crying and standing helplessly beside the display cabinet, even Wenbin felt that his heart was broken. When Lian Wenbin, who was a bit macho, looked at Li Xiaoqi, who was always strong, turned into this, the protective desire in his heart began to break through his reason.
Lian Wenbin walked to Li Xiaoqi's side with a dark face, and said nothing, but took out his hand towel from his body and gently handed it to Li Xiaoqi.
Li Xiaoqi, who was three-point aggrieved and three-point resentful, looked at the hand towel that suddenly reached in front of her. For the first time, she felt that she felt very annoying on weekdays. The childish noble son Lian Wenbin was so cute.
Li Xiaoqi, who took Lian Wenbin's hand towel, said thank you softly and then showed her professional attitude. She began to tell Lian Wenbin about the item beside her with tears in her smile.
At this time, Lian Wenbin could not hear something, grabbed Li Xiaoqi's hand, held her and walked out of the banquet hall.
Li Xiaoqi tried hard to get rid of Lian Wenbin's hand, so she immediately lowered her voice and said, "Lian Wenbin, what do you want to do? I still have to work."
Lian Wenbin, who walked out of the banquet hall, then let go of Li Xiaoqi's hand, looked back at the girl in front of him and said, "I don't know what happened tonight. You will cry during the working hours that make you feel so important to you, but I'll tell you now that your work is over."
It turned out that in the afternoon, Lian Wenbin ran to Li Xiaoqi's company with a dress, hoping that she would come with her tonight's charity banquet, but Li Xiaoqi turned down Lian Wenbin's invitation on the grounds that this job is very important.
When Li Xiaoqi heard Lian Wenbin's words, she didn't know what to say. After rejecting Lian Wenbin in the afternoon, she could still disdainfully mock Xiao Qiang, who came to the company to hand over the handover with her, was so hurt by Xiao Qiang's words in the blink of an eye.
Lian Wenbin really liked the strong and beautiful girl in front of her. She gently pulled Li Xiaoqi's hand and looked at her affectionately and said, "I don't ask what happened just now, but I just want you to wear the dress I gave you now and enter the venue with me beautifully." As he said, Lian Wenbin ignored Li Xiaoqi's face and turned to look at the bodyguard of the Lian family beside them and said, "Go to my car and bring the dress on the back seat."
When Li Xiaoqi was about to say no, Lian Wenbin pulled her into her arms. Lian Wenbin's murmuring sounded in her ears, "Don't reject me, who loves you. No matter who makes you angry, I will not let him have a good life tonight." (To be continued.)
