A CEO Grows Up

Lan Xinrui thought, no matter how her father dealt with these things, and no matter how her mother repeatedly told her not to let her father know about the existence of these things, she still wanted to let her father know. She didn't want to hide it from her family, and she was willing to leave it for her brother to use when he got married in the future.

So Lan Xinrui happily returned to her room holding the box.

This scene was seen by Lan He who was coming downstairs, so he immediately joked with amusement: "So happy? Did you find money?"

Lan Xinrui smiled and trotted over to Lan He upon hearing that. She opened the box without hesitation and said, "Isn't it just money that I found? I didn't expect my mom to be so rich. There's more than 20 yuan in her card, and I also have the title deed to the house over there."

Lan He took a look, patted Lan Xinrui's head with amusement and said, "Okay, you really found some money. She didn't make money in vain. Isn't this a bargain for you?"

"Of course." Lan Xinrui looked a little proud. Lan He smiled and let her go back to her room to sleep.

A week passed in a flash, and soon it was the day of the charity auction. Lin Chuchu from Tang Group attended the auction with her assistants Lan He and Lan Xinrui. As soon as they entered, they saw Chen Chuhang, whom they hadn't seen for a long time.

The moment he saw Lin Chuchu, Chen Chuhang was very excited: "Senior Chuchu, it's been a long time since we last met. You didn't even mention coming back to the academy to see us. I miss you so much, Senior Chuchu."

Seeing that Chen Chuhang, the koala, was about to hug Lin Chuchu, he was stopped by Fu Jingchen who happened to arrive: "You are so old, and you are still so reckless. How can a girl like you like this?"

"Uh? Fu Jingchen, I want to hug Senior Sister Chuchu, why are you blocking me? I want to hug her."

Fu Jingchen sneered and said, "Humph, I think you want to die."

After being scolded, Chen Chuhang immediately looked at Lin Chuchu pitifully and said, "Senior Chuchu, he scared me."

……

Can I have more green tea? Lin Chuchu ignored it and said, "Okay, let me introduce it to you seriously."

Upon hearing this, Chen Chuhang immediately stood up obediently: "Okay."

Lin Chuchu introduced him, "This is my partner and assistant, his name is Lan He, and the one next to him is Lan He's sister Lan Xinrui." Lan He smiled and nodded, and Lan Xinrui also nodded along with Lan He, squinting her eyes and smiling.

Chen Chuhang greeted them enthusiastically: "Hello, my name is Chen Chuhang, you can just call me Chuhang. As for this little sister, um, who is older than you?"

Lan Xinrui saw Chen Chuhang talking to her again, so she immediately said, "I, I'm 17 years old and I'm in my third year of high school."

Upon hearing that, Chen Chuhang immediately smiled and said, "Oh, so you're my little sister. I'm two years older than you, so you can call me Brother Chuhang." Wow haha, he can also be a brother.

Uh... this? Lan Xinrui smiled and took Lan He's arm, somewhat at a loss, and said, "Hello, Master Chen...? I..."

Lan Xinrui felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say. She suddenly realized that her mother was wrong. Her mother once taught her that if she wanted to make friends, she had to find ways to attract other people's attention and attract their gazes, so that others would notice the halo around her. So she did that, but what she attracted were some nondescript people. Real kings like Chi Bingye and Fu Jingchen were very disgusted with her. Even Nan Zhi and the others hated her to the extreme. So she had to be herself and stop thinking about irrelevant things. Those were all TV dramas about getting a rich husband. In reality, people paid attention to being well-matched. But she knew her own family background very well. Her family only depended on her brother. Although her father could make money, he was just a bodyguard. Of course, he was not as good as the rich princesses in the upper class. And her main task now was to study.

Lin Chuchu noticed Lan Xinrui's discomfort, so she helped her out: "Okay, Chen Chuhang, you just met and you're already asking her to call you brother. Instead of taking advantage of her, you might as well spend more time communicating with your suitor. I heard that Aunt Zhao introduced you to a girlfriend."

Upon hearing this, Chen Chuhang immediately said, "She's not a girlfriend, at best a female friend. My mom introduced us to each other, but she didn't say that we must date. Besides, I don't like her."

Xiao Xue happened to hear these words, so she walked over and said to Chen Chuhang, "Chuhang, you're here. I was wondering why I couldn't see you in the blink of an eye."

As she spoke, she looked around. Lin Chuchu didn't dare to say anything. However, she saw clearly that this little girl didn't know what Chen Chuhang had said to her just now, but her face was so red. So she immediately rushed over with a grim look on her face.

Then Xiao Xue smiled at Lin Chuchu and said, "It's President Xiao Lin. I'm Xiao Xue from the Xiao Group. Aunt Zhao introduced Chu Hang and I to each other." She lowered her head shyly when she said this.

Lin Chuchu nodded and didn't want to exchange pleasantries with her, so she immediately said, "The auction is about to start, let's take a seat."

There were free drinks in the venue, so Lan Xinrui thought that she couldn't come here for nothing, and the drinks here were better than those sold outside, so she went to the waiter to get a drink and ordered one for Lan He as well.

Lan Xinrui took the glass and drank it all, then asked the waiter for another one. The moment the waiter turned around to make the drinks, Lan Xinrui didn't notice the disdain and sarcasm on her face at all, and was still sighing that the drinks here were really delicious.

Chen Chuhang felt bored in there. As the name suggests, a charity auction is for rich people to bid for charity. He was not interested in the things in it. He just came here with his brother because he hadn't seen Senior Sister Chuchu for a long time and thought he would definitely see her here.

I was bored at this time and came to the tea room thinking of ordering two drinks, but I saw Lan Xinrui drinking the drinks in one gulp without caring about her image. It cannot be said that she kept gulping down the drinks at the beginning. She just took a small sip at first, and then maybe she tasted the deliciousness of the drinks, so her eyes lit up and she drank them all, and then ordered another glass.

Chen Chuhang was very curious. Was the drink she ordered so delicious? He wanted to try it himself, so he immediately walked over and said to the waiter, "Waiter, give me a drink exactly like hers."

Upon hearing this, Lan Xinrui turned her head in confusion and smiled as a greeting.

Lan Xinrui took the drink and was about to leave when Chen Chuhang stopped her: "Ai, you're going back now? It's boring in there, why don't you have a drink and some snacks here."

In fact, Lan Xinrui also felt bored. Besides, the dim sum here was also delicious, but she had already eaten a few pieces and the plate was almost empty, so she was embarrassed to ask for more dim sum, and said, "Do you like the dim sum here too? I just ate a few pieces. It was the most delicious dim sum I have ever had. But, there is no more." As she spoke, her cheeks blushed with embarrassment. The reason was simple: she felt embarrassed. She thought it was delicious, so she ate it all. Wasn't she too unsophisticated?

Chen Chuhang didn't think it was a big deal. In fact, young men like them had eaten so many delicacies from land and sea. He didn't think the snacks here were that delicious. He just ate them to kill time. But now seeing Lan Xinrui liked it, he also wanted to try it to see if the chef had changed this time.

Chen Chuhang glanced at the empty plate, then smiled and said, "It's okay. If it's empty, they will automatically refill it. I don't know if the waiter is new and doesn't understand the process, or if he let her eat something secretly and didn't refill it."

In fact, Chen Chuhang saw clearly that the waiter just looked down on Lan Xinrui, so his words at this moment were a bit cold. Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately filled the empty plate and then lowered his head guiltily.

Chen Chuhang did not make things difficult for them. After all, it was an auction and he did not want to make a big deal out of it.
