Chapter 22 Noble Academy (23)

The location of the charity gala is located in Beixi Mountain, where there are many tall trees and lush branches and leaves, which are indistinct under the sky that seems dark but not dark.An asphalt winding mountain road winds around and leads directly to the top of the mountain. Near the top of the mountain, the lights are brightly lit and dotted with stars, reflecting the night sky.The gate of Jingrui Villa is fully open, luxury cars drive in from time to time, and the noise disperses from the inside, faintly floating in the air.

The main building is located in the center of Jingrui Villa. It is two floors high and is also used for banquets on weekdays. The red carpet is spread from the marble column outside the steps to the second floor, and flashing lights can be seen occasionally.The charity gala was not a small event. Although there were no older generations to join in, it was a rare occasion for the younger generation to gather, and some political factors were also involved.

It was nearly six o'clock, the sky was dark, and the last golden light in the sky came to an end.From time to time, walking figures can be seen on the red carpet. Jian Ming took Qi Cheng's hand and stepped into the main building, with a smile on his face and a dignified posture, he went straight to the auction room on the second floor.

"Brother Qi, I'll change places with you."

As soon as she was seated, Jian Ming glanced around, then poked Qi Cheng's arm on the right and said in a low voice.On Qi Cheng's right are Bai Lu and Jian Rui. She is not interested in this auction at all, she just came to see and see, so naturally she doesn't want to sit alone.If he changed his position, he would be able to chat with Bai Lu anyway, if it wasn't for Qi Cheng to grab the position...

"Why should I change it? It's no good?" Qi Cheng hooked the corners of his lips, a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, he raised his eyebrows, looking to see what kind of expression you can make.

evildoer!Jian Ming cursed secretly, a smile immediately formed on his face, and his eyes widened: "Isn't it a matter of course for elder brother to help younger sister? Could it be that what Brother Qi said before doesn't count?"

"What did I say?"

"Didn't Brother Qi ask you for help when he was in trouble before? Look, my sister is in trouble now, so please show mercy and move your position magnanimously!" It fell all over the place.

"Ahem, for the sake of your begging so hard, I will show mercy, young master..." While speaking, Qi Cheng slowly got up, looking lazily wishing someone would kick him.

"Then thank you brother Qi." Jian Ming rolled her eyes inwardly, and then sat in his original seat without hesitation.

At six o'clock, the conversation in the venue gradually became quiet, and then became quiet. After several sponsors made their opening remarks, the auction officially began.Jian Ming leaned against the back of the chair, her expression flickering, she did not expect that Gu Kun was also one of the organizers.Jian Rui once said that this charity gala was held by some of the more powerful princelings in Kyoto...

Thinking in this way, she showed a little surprise on her face, and then asked in a low voice: "Young Master Gu is also the organizer?"

"Yes, the Gu family is deeply rooted in China, with branches and leaves spread all over, and all parties have infiltrated. It is related to the lifeline of the country. Even the supreme one sometimes needs to worry about it. As a member of the princeling party, Gu Kun is not a leader, but he is also a prominent figure. It's normal to be the host." Qi Cheng explained in a low voice, because he involved some words that should not be publicized, he tilted his head slightly, his lips were close to his ears, and he was very close to Jian Ming.

Jian Ming frowned when she heard the words. Thinking of the plot, she couldn't help asking: "I heard a rumor that the Lin family and the Gu family are feuds. According to what you said, it seems that the Lin family is no match at all?"

"Where did you hear the nonsense?" Qi Cheng chuckled suddenly, and placed his hand on Jian Ming's left shoulder: "Well, it can't be said to be nonsense, it has indeed been said before. About a dozen Years ago, there seemed to be something dirty between the two families, but if we talk about hatred, it was probably unilaterally considered by the Lin family. After all, the Gu family and the Lin family are completely incomparable. Think about it, the relationship between officials and businessmen, tsk tsk..."

"So it is."

Jian Ming nodded thoughtfully, from this point of view, the Gu family is obviously of a higher level.

"Host, the target of the attack has been looking at you just now, the eyes are so frightening..."

The stupid system sounded like he was about to cry, Jian Ming lowered his head subconsciously and looked up, and he really saw Gu Kun who was in the first row and turned his head just now.She pursed her lips, and heard the passionate voice of the auctioneer. From the corner of her eye, she saw Bai Lu sitting upright, staring at Yuan Qinghua on the booth without blinking. She suddenly lost interest in chatting.

At this moment, the calfskin dinner bag in her hand suddenly vibrated slightly, she was slightly taken aback, and secretly took out her phone.

"After the auction is over, come to the word 'star' lounge."

The text message was sent by Gu Kun. She frowned and put the phone back, feeling a little hesitant.

The auction was just a cover, and it ended in an hour. There were no extremely valuable items at the meeting. Most of them were only in the tens of thousands, and the highest was only more than 30. It was a piece of ancient jade, which appeared as the finale.The next dinner party was the most important thing. After all, many people came here to connect with each other. After the end, everyone went to the banquet hall on the first floor together.

Bai Lu was accompanied by Jian Rui, so she was not helpless, and Jian Ming was not worried, so she made excuses and walked to the "Star" lounge.In fact, with her temperament, she is absolutely unwilling to go, but the other party is Gu Kun, who is her target and the guarantee of her life. She doesn't want the two of them to break up completely.

It took her a few years to get a good impression of 60, but if it wants to drop, it may not take a year.She couldn't afford to bet on this, and she didn't want to bet.The task is not easy to complete, although the system keeps saying that she is a novice, it is normal to encounter various situations.But she understands that since she took over the task, she has been influenced by the hopeful thoughts of the new students. The rationality and joy that have been accumulated in the past 30 years have been disintegrated by herself little by little.

She can't be like this anymore, she can't be impulsive anymore!She is not really a carefree girl in her early twenties, she has experienced a real death, she is Jian Ming, a direct descendant of the Jian family who used to be in the Great Viet Dynasty, and also a tasker of the female supporting system.

Gu Kun is just a companion on a journey, she had the wrong attitude from the very beginning!
The sound of high heels stepping on the white tiles became clearer and louder. Jian Ming walked towards the lounge step by step, her eyes gradually became firmer and calmer.

"Please come in."

After knocking on the wooden door, a familiar voice came from inside, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she pushed the door open and entered.Gu Kun stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window holding a teacup, his suit was taken off, and the white shirt suited him as always.The curtains are pulled up on both sides, and the night scene is clearly visible outside the transparent tempered glass.The crystal chandelier on the top was dazzling, Gu Kun turned around slowly, and walked to the white leather sofa with his slender legs in a few steps. He was still expressionless, and he had to admit that this expression could cover up all emotions.

Jian Ming was a few steps away from him, and the corners of her lips that were always raised were now drawn into a straight line. She looked at Gu Kun seriously, waiting for him to speak.
