Chapter 9: Lan Miao Banquet

Today, all the people in Beijing with heads and faces are in the Blue House. The invitations written by Lan Lixiao personally tell everyone how much they value Lan Miao, the granddaughter.
"Are you ready?" Lan Qin stood at the door of A Miao's room.
A Miao met her gaze and felt that she was very satisfied with what she looks like now.
"A bit nervous." A Miao smiled. "I have never experienced such a scene."
Lan Qin looked at her. The pale golden slanted evening dress was luxurious and unobtrusive, and the style was not cumbersome, except that a lot of diamonds were embellished from the skirt, each of which was genuine.
The hair is naturally covered behind the head, and the only abnormal color in the whole body is the emerald necklace on the neck. Lan Qin recognized it, which was the favorite in front of grandma.
"Perform well, don't waste Grandpa's mind!" She smiled meaningfully and turned to leave.
A Miao took a deep breath in the mirror, she was really nervous. The people who came to her before also said that it was precisely because of her living environment and current experience that Miao had made her temperamental.
Perfect for the role of today ...
"Okay! Come on!" She shook her fists and started.
Lan Lixiao waited for her at the entrance of the stairs.
"grandfather."
"It looks good!" The old man looked at A Miao who came over with satisfaction, "the necklace is very suitable for you."
A Miao touched, Jade's touch was very comfortable: "Thank you! It's beautiful."
"What's so beautiful about the necklace depends on who's carrying it." Lan Lixiao said capriciously, "my granddaughter would look good with me!"
A Miao held her arm: "Oh! Let's go down"
The lobby of the Lan family was purposely decorated. When Lan Lixiao and A Miao came downstairs, the scene was quiet all of a sudden, and everyone's eyes focused.
"Everyone is cheering, hello!" Lan Li Xiaoli said hello, calmly let A Miao two steps, pushed her to the front.
"This is my granddaughter Lan Miao. She has just returned. Do n’t bully her! I am a lot of old bones at this age. Nothing else, taking care of my baby granddaughter is still possible, haha!"
Although Lan Lixiao smiled, her tone was nothing like a joke, and she made a straightforward announcement to Beijing's high society that no one could bully her granddaughter, or wait for me to clean up ...
"A Miao come!" Lan Qin beckoned to her.
A Miao looked at Lan Lixiao.
"Come on! Let your aunt take you to recognize someone." Lan Lixiao patted A Miao's shoulder, "Don't be afraid, you are the Miss Lan family, they should be afraid of you!"
Lan Qin handed A Miao a glass of champagne and saw that she just put it on her lips and nodded.
"The first thing I teach you is, in public, never drink a drink that someone else handed you."
A Miao was about to take a second sip, her arms in the air. "But ... you are my aunt."
"Of course, including me." Lan Qin touched her wine cellar. "Anyone you don't trust, or anyone you think you are friends, are included."
A Miao blinked: "I don't understand."
"The best friend is often your fiercest enemy in turn." Lan Qin's beautiful features approached her, "Do you understand?"
"understood……"
Someone came over to talk, Lan Qin introduced to A Miao, and the next thing was to say hello, smile, and listen to her praise. Occasionally, A Miao would see the cousins ​​of Lan Lixiao who had come to dinner before. There was a host's stance and embarrassment, but apparently the other people's contempt flashed through their eyes, which proved that although they were named Lan, they could not speak the same language as the Lan family.
"You are so beautiful today!" Ouyang Jin didn't know where to come out. After complimenting A Miao, she gave a standard gentleman ceremony to Lan Qin, "Hang up the name, Miss Three!"
Lan Qin covered her mouth and smiled cleverly: "I should say this, long-awaited Mr. Gambling God!"
"Well?" Lan Wenxuan asked curiously. "Aunts you know?"
Ouyang Jin pretended to have a deep frown: "Impossible, if I have ever seen such a beautiful lady as Miss Three, I will never forget it."
"Oh! I've seen it before." Lan Qin touched her hair. "I was on the scene a few years ago when you were in a rice country."
Ouyang Jin raised her glass: "It was my fault. I didn't see Miss Three. I'll give you a face and ask you to eat a meal as a penalty!"
"You're welcome!" Lan Qin touched him with a glass. "You young people, I'll take A Miao away for a while."
"Don't be afraid, I believe you can do it." Ouyang Jin touched the glass with A Miao again, deliberately speaking a little ambiguously.
When Lan Qin and A Miao left, Lan Wenxuan began to doubt again: "Aren't you really interested in A Miao?"
"Guess?" Ouyang Jin blinked.
A Miao finally had time to rest. Lan Qin and several good wives were discussing about the auction. She greeted and went to the rest area to sit on the sofa.
"Ms. Blue?" A man walked past her, and backed away. "Don't you suggest I sit down?"
"Please!" A Miao smiled politely.
After the man sat down, he didn't talk to her, but just kept looking at his watch.
"This gentleman." A Miao couldn't help but said, "If you are in a hurry, you can leave first."
The man seemed to be surprised that she would take the initiative to speak, and she smiled embarrassedly: "That's not suitable. Today is Miss Lan's banquet. I leave so early ..."
"But you have something important, right?" A Miao shook her head. "Let's go, if someone asks me, I'll say you've already said hello."
The man's eyes brightened, and A Miao found out that although the man was long, his eyes looked good, and he was particularly contagious when he laughed.
"Thank you, Miss Lan!" The man looked at her gratefully and stood up and left.
Ouyang Jin always pays attention to this, seeing people go, hurry up and sit down: "Do you know?"
"I don't know." A Miao shook her head. "It seems that there is something urgent."
"Do you think he is honest, so help him raise his hand?" Ouyang Jin smiled playfully. "The guy is Qi Ze, the owner of Huayi Entertainment."
A Miao was surprised: "He? But ..."
"It's not like it!" Ouyang Jin pouted. "It looks particularly honest, but in fact the means are very good, especially at the negotiation table. I heard that person has a high IQ, and Huayi Entertainment is one of the three largest entertainment companies in Beijing. "
"By the way, didn't Lan Wenxuan answer the phone that day? It said that a relative who entered the entertainment circle was in Zize's company. It was Lan Lixiao's cousin's daughter, Nie Shuangshuang."
When he finished speaking, he saw A Miao's expression that was really like this: "What? You know."
"No, that Nie Shuangshuang, I've already seen it." She said about the day at the hotel. "
Ouyang Jin said that she was particularly gloating after listening to the words: "She's really unlucky. Fortunately, she didn't come today, otherwise I'm afraid I will lose sleep at night."
The influx of relatives offended the young lady of the eight children, thinking that this is a good show!
"It's really troublesome to have more relatives ..." A Miao rubbed her forehead and asked what she thought, "I heard Father Lan quarreled with someone on the phone in the morning, as if it was his youngest son."
Ouyang Jin looked around: "Presumably because he did not return to the banquet, the old man was dissatisfied."
"I seem to say that people are still abroad."
"It's better if he doesn't come back." Ouyang Jin suddenly blinked.
A wonderful look at him strangely: "What do you think?"
"It's nothing!" Ouyang Jin shook her red hair. "I think of something and I turn to God."
It was time for a commotion at the door, and Amy see Lan Wenxuan hurried over.
"Come on, Grandpa is looking for you!"
Before A Miao had time to speak, Lan Wenxuan picked him up and left: "The people of the Jin and Li families are here."
The other two in Beijing, the same name as the Blue House! A Miao flashed the information quickly.
"Don't forget to be shameful!" Lan Wenxuan glanced at her. "If someone in the Li family says something awful, it depends on me."
A Miao was confused, not knowing what he meant. It is a pity that they have entered the small living room, where a group of people are sitting.
"A Miao comes!" Lan Lixiao beckoned when she came in.
A Miao went to the old man and sat down, "Grandpa!"
"Come! This is old Jin." He pointed to a white fat old man.
A Miao stood up and bent slightly, "Hello Jin Lao!"
"Haha!" The old man glanced at him secretly, drew his chin aside, "Give you a greeting."
A woman next to me stared at A Miao and handed a red envelope: "It's so pretty. Uncle Lan is so lucky!"
"Of course!" Lan Lixiao was not polite at all. "This is the daughter of old Jin."
A Miao called aunt again.
The woman patted her hand with a smile, "Good!"
"Isn't it just a long portrait ... I don't know where it came from." A voice suddenly heard from the side, and then the atmosphere stopped.
Lan Hua winked at Shen Qing, and Shen Qing grinned: "Li Rong, you still speak so urgently, our own granddaughter, can we make a mistake?"
"You ..." A stylishly dressed woman glared at her across.
Shen Qing ignored her and continued, "I remember a few years ago, there was someone from your family who came back outside ... is your sister or brother coming? Are you correct?"
The thin old man sitting next to Li Rong snorted, but looked at Li Rong with warning.
"Today is my granddaughter's banquet. It's good to be happy." Lan Lixiao gave a light glance at the thin old man Li Peng.
Li Peng smiled angrily twice: "Don't say it as if we have any purpose, Amy, right?"
"... Yes." Although A Miao knew who he was, Lan Lixiao hadn't introduced her yet, and she could only look blank.
"His surname is Li." Lan Lixiao glanced at Li Rong without even introducing her.
A Miao screamed quickly: "Hello Li!"
"Meeting ceremony." Li Peng took out the checkbook from his pocket, and now wrote one and handed it over.
"..." A Miao twitched. Don't give it up if you're not ready. What's this?
Li Peng saw her frown, and frowned, "Why, too few?"
