After so many years, the bone of Gracilaria is still hard to chew.

Thinking of the past, the corner of Lu Run's mouth raised a meaningful arc.

He looked at Jiang Li and the beautiful girl who was unfamiliar over there calmly. One was beautiful and the other was pure. After comparing the two in his mind, he came up with an idea.

"When you mention it like that, I think of Miss Jiang, you still owe me a meal, right?"

When Jiang Li heard this, the smile on his face froze. He said back then that he was invited back then, it was just an excuse to get away.

Jiang Li remembers very clearly that on New Year's Day last year, Lu Run spent 20 yuan to photograph her graduation work, and afterwards showed great interest in the story of the painting, invited her to dinner, and said that she wanted to listen to her talk about her work. The story behind the spinoff.

The happiest thing for an artist is the affirmation of his works by others.

At that time, she went to the appointment without thinking too much.

It's just that during the dinner, she gradually felt that something was wrong. Lu Run didn't have much interest in her creative background at all, and always asked about her love life, hinting that she was interesting to her.

It may be that he tried to get himself drunk after realizing that he didn't mean that conveniently.

Fortunately, when I was a little drunk, I realized that something was wrong, and excused myself to ask back next time, so I took a taxi and left in advance with a very resolute attitude.

Later, within a month, she went abroad to Lin Qiumo's studio, and she never saw Lu Run again.

Meeting her today was also unexpected.

But since Jiang Li stood up to defend Lin Qiumo, she also realized that he would bring up the old matter.

Now that he is abroad, it is equivalent to being in her territory. Jiang Li guessed that Lu Run would not dare to mess around, so he said, "Remember, Mr. Lu rarely comes to the United States, so I naturally want to treat guests."

Lu Run smiled and said, "I'm just joking, how dare I ask Ms. Jiang to treat you. If Ms. Jiang doesn't mind, you might as well be a guide and take me to appreciate the masterpieces in this room."

Hearing this, Jiang Li felt that this request was not too much, so she nodded and said, "Mr. Lu, please."

Lu Run followed her and left, but before he left, his eyes glanced at Ye Xingyi intentionally or unintentionally.

Ye Xingyi happened to meet his eyes.

He smiled at himself, and Ye Xingyi had no choice but to smile at him in response.

Ye Xingyi was a little worried about Jiang Li. Although that Lu Run looked well-dressed on the outside, a woman's sixth instinct reminded her that he had bad intentions.

She raised her eyes to look at Lin Qiumo who was watching Jiang Li and Lu Run go away.

He also seemed a little worried, so he asked, "Is it okay to leave Jiang Li alone?"

Lin Qiumo looked back at Ye Xingyi, she is so beautiful today!
"It's okay, she knows."

"Really?" Ye Xingyi was still worried, and looked in the direction of the two from time to time.

"Well, she is Jiangli." If there is anyone in this world who can reassure Lin Qiumo, except for Jiangli, there is no other person.

Ye Xingyi's figure was reflected in his phoenix eyes, and he couldn't hold others anymore.

So he didn't notice how uncomfortable Jiangli was standing with Lu Run.

Ye Xingyi noticed it.

Although she didn't know what happened to Lu Run and Jiang Li before, she just felt something was wrong now, but Lu Run didn't really do anything bad, so she hesitated what to tell Lin Qiumo.

Not far away, Jiang Li took Lu Run to admire the paintings.

Because of the distance, Ye Xingyi couldn't hear what they said.All I saw was that Lu Run seemed to be intentionally inviting Jiang Gracilaria to drink champagne glass after glass.

Although champagne is not high in alcohol, it is actually easy to get drunk.

"No! I'd better go there!" Ye Xingyi was still worried about Jiangli.

Lin Qiumo wanted to talk to Ye Xingyi alone, but when she heard that she insisted on going to find Jiang Li, he had no choice but to say, "I'll go! You wait here for me."

The way that Lu Run looked at Ye Xingyi was too explicit, he didn't want Ye Xingyi to move over.

"Okay." Ye Xingyi nodded.

It was best for him to go, she didn't like the way Lu Run looked at her, since Lin Qiumo went instead of her, she was very relieved to have him by Jiang Li's side.

As soon as Lin Qiumo left, the other seniors surrounded Ye Xingyi again, saying nonsense flattering words, trying to win the beauty's heart.

Ye Xingyi was very tired of dealing with it, but they were all seniors. As a junior, she had to answer. She finally got rid of them with the excuse of looking for Qian Mengmeng.

She saw Qian Mengmeng and Steven outside the balcony on the second floor of the castle. She wanted to go over to say hello, but before she stepped out, she saw the two hugging each other suddenly.

Then that Steven lowered his head and kissed Qian Mengmeng.

How could she expect to watch this scene.

Qiao blushed, stepped aside, and turned to the other side of the corridor.

On the first floor, Ye Xingyi didn't want to go down yet.There were famous paintings of celebrities hanging on the walls of the corridor on the second floor. She decided to just look around on the second floor. The important thing was that there were few people on the second floor.

She looked all the way over and saw another open balcony.

Ye Xingyi wanted to go over to enjoy the night breeze, but the balcony was already occupied. Several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes were leaning on the balcony, smoking cigars and talking.

When they saw Ye Xing moving over, they all looked over in unison.

Ye Xingyi smiled apologetically at them, expressing that he had no intention of disturbing them, and turned around to leave.

"Please wait a moment." Among them, a middle-aged man with a big belly stopped her.

He asked: "You are Mr. Zhao's new student, called that Ye, what is Ye?"

Ye Xingyi turned around, nodded and said, "My name is Ye Xingyi, do you know the teacher?"

The middle-aged man grinned, showing his yellow teeth due to frequent smoking, and said: "Not only do we know each other, we have bought a lot of your master's paintings, and today I also heard that his old man came back today, so I just came here. But why haven’t I seen his old man until now?”

Ye Xingyi hurriedly explained: "Master, the old man will be late."

The middle-aged man said: "Oh, then come here and chat with us."

"This..." Ye Xingyi was a little embarrassed, she didn't know these people at all.

"What is this?" The middle-aged man was a little unhappy, and said: "We are your master's regular customers. The old man can achieve what he is today, not because of us who spend money to support him."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Ye Xingyi's eyes lit up when he heard what they said.

She said: "My master's status today is due to his excellent paintings. He is talented and recognized by the art world. The apprentices he taught, such as Lin Qiumo, are well-known at home and abroad. I don't allow you to insult my teacher like this." .”

"Hey! The little girl is angry!" The middle-aged man didn't take it seriously.He pointed at the angry Ye Xingyi, causing his companions to laugh together.

"Look how naive she is in a hurry. If we don't buy it, your master's paintings are worthless. What kind of art? It's nothing more than a novelty created by rich people to launder money." Someone said disdainfully.

Ye Xing was so angry that he couldn't speak politely: "Nonsense! Talking about art to people like you is an insult to the word art."

As soon as she said this, she immediately angered several middle-aged men.

Four or five people looked at me, and I looked at you. They came out from the balcony and surrounded Ye Xing.

"What are you going to do?" Ye Xingyi immediately became alert.

Ye Xingyi's dress was backless, and the smooth and jade-like back stimulated the visual nerves of a middle-aged man who was standing behind her. He rubbed his hands obscenely, and said, "Actually, there is one thing in your art world. It still makes us feel convinced.” 
As he spoke, he reached out and touched Ye Xingyi's back.

"Ah!" Ye Xingyi jumped up in fright
She wrapped her arms around herself, trying to rush out of the encirclement surrounding her.

However, several middle-aged men surrounded her tightly, and she couldn't get out at all. Instead, she was touched several times by those men, and her hair was messed up.

But at this time, there was no one at both ends of the corridor, and her cries for help were not answered.

A few middle-aged men became more daring because of this, and they gradually became unwilling to just take advantage of it.At the beginning, the middle-aged man's eye sockets were red from being irritated.

He spit out the cigar in his mouth, grabbed Ye Xingyi's arm with his fat and thick hands, pulled off the skirt on her shoulders, and gnawed on the exposed half with his plump lips.

"No!"

Ye Xingyi ran away in fright, but his arm was firmly grabbed.

She lowered her head in a hurry and bit hard on the back of the hand that was holding the anxious arm.

"Ah! Are you a dog? It hurts me to death." The middle-aged man withdrew his hand and cursed, raised his other uninjured hand and threw it at Ye Xingyi's face.

Fortunately, Ye Xingyi seized the opportunity to slip out from under his arm and run away.

He missed the shot, and saw the beauty running away again. Afraid of making things worse, he hurriedly shouted at the few people who were obviously stunned: "Quick! Stop him, and catch her for me."

Ye Xingyi held his skirt to prevent it from falling off, and ran away.The people behind were still chasing her, she didn't have time to raise her hand to wipe away the tears she was frightened by, her eyes were foggy.

Turning the corner, she bumped headfirst into a hard chest.

She hurriedly raised her head, looked at the other party through the tears, and begged for help: "Please, help me."

Lu Run was hit in the arms, and was angry at first, but after seeing the rainy face of Li Hua in front of him, he took the opportunity to hold him in his arms, and asked with concern: "Miss Ye, what's wrong with you?"

Before Ye Xingyi could answer, the people behind had already caught up.

The menacing people looked at Lu Run's face, their expressions changed drastically, they quickly stood up straight, and shouted: "Mr. Lu!"

Yes!

This group of people was with Lu Run, but their rank was lower than that of Lu Run, and they cooperated with Lu Run to complete the bidding task.

Lu Run knows the virtues of his subordinates best.

Of course, he himself is not much better, everyone is a beast in clothes, it's just that the rank is higher and he is better at disguising.

Lu Run glanced at Ye Xingyi who was trembling in fear in his arms, and then looked at those subordinates, and he understood immediately.As soon as he rolled his eyes, he organized his words.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard a gloomy and icy voice beside her, saying, "President Lu, please let her go."
