The car drove all the way to the venue of the charity dinner held by the city government. All the people who came here were business celebrities.
The Huo family was the focus of this long charity dinner. As soon as Huo Shaoting and Qiqi appeared, there were special receptionists to entertain them, and some people they knew came to greet them.
Qiqi followed Huo Shaoting, keeping quiet all the time, while Huo Shaoting was in front of her, chatting with those who came to him.
His face changed from the calmness in the car before, with a slight smile on his face, and he was chatting very talkatively with the people in front of him.
There were many reporters at the scene, and the flash lights kept flashing from the entrance. Qiqi's eyes were hurt by the dazzling light.
Fortunately, she was quite calm, and she could manage to remain calm in those dazzling lights.
She is Mrs. Huo. She was in the hot news some time ago, so she is naturally the target of reporters' cameras.
Even she and Huo Shaoting had already walked inside from the door, and the cameras were still aimed at her.
After Qiqi sensed those shots, she seemed extremely nervous and uncomfortable.
After Huo Shaoting exchanged greetings with the people in front of him, he then turned his attention to Qiqi. Amidst the many shots aimed at them, he lowered his face slightly and whispered: "Let's go."
Qiqi heard his voice in the noise, and she nodded.
Huo Shaoting stopped looking at her and looked forward, following those people into the interior of the charity dinner. Qiqi could only continue to follow him.
Fortunately, when entering the venue, the reporters couldn't come in anymore and were all blocked out. Qiqi completely relaxed without being followed by cameras.
After that, Huo Shaoting followed those people and took a seat in the front row of the charity dinner venue. Of course, she, Mrs. Huo, was given preferential treatment and was carefully entertained and seated by those who were leading.
After Qiqi sat down, at this time, the secretary behind them answered a phone call. After answering the phone call, she walked towards Huo Shaoting. After standing next to Huo Shaoting, she She whispered in his ear: "Mr. Huo, Miss Li Nai is here."
Although the secretary's voice was low, she heard what the secretary said because she was sitting next to Huo Shaoting.
After Qiqi heard the secretary's words, her shoulders trembled slightly and then froze there.
Huo Shaoting didn't react at all when he heard the secretary's words, as if he had known about it for a long time. He raised his face slightly.
And Qiqi's gaze also followed Huo Shaoting's. At another entrance where there were no reporters, Li Nai was pushed in by the nurse. She was also looking towards Huo Shaoting, with a hint of confusion on her face. laugh.
Then her eyes fell on Qiqi from a distance. After seeing Qiqi, she silently called: "Qiqi."
There was a pleasing smile on her face.
But Qiqi didn't look particularly happy after meeting Li Nai's gaze.
Because she couldn't forgive her sister Rina for what she did to her.
Maybe the more you care about someone, the deeper they care in your heart.
Huo Shaoting glanced at Qiqi and naturally noticed her cold response to Li Nai's greeting, but he didn't say too much. He only glanced at it with his peripheral vision and looked away.
He only said to the secretary: "Go and follow her. There are quite a lot of people at the venue."
The secretary responded: "Well, the people at the venue arranged Miss Lina's position a little behind us, so that she won't attract attention."
Huo Shaoting hummed.
The secretary didn't stay long and left them after listening to his instructions.
Just when Qiqi didn't quite understand why her sister Li Nai came here, Huo Shaoting said to her: "Your sister is bored in the ward, so if she wants to come, let her come."
He didn't explain this to her, but told her casually in a low voice.
Qiqi naturally knew that she had no right to interfere. This was his business and his and his sister's business. She was just an outsider.
She didn't respond.
Seeing that she didn't respond or say anything more, Huo Shaoting withdrew his gaze from her.
Li Nai was led by Huo Shaoting's secretary. After sitting down behind Huo Shaoting and Qi Qi, the secretary said to her: "Miss Li Nai, don't you feel uncomfortable?"
Lina felt that she was in a good mood today. She smiled and said, "Well, I feel much more relaxed after coming out. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
The secretary felt relieved and said, "That's good."
Li Nai asked again: "Qiqi...are you still unwilling to forgive me?"
There was a bit of sadness in Lina's words.
When the secretary heard what she said, she immediately said, "Don't worry, Miss Qiqi will not be really angry with you."
When Lina heard this, she felt relieved: "That's good."
…
On Li Nai's side, after being entertained by Huo Shaoting's secretary, Huo Shaoting was handed a booklet by the staff at the venue, which was a collection manual for tonight's dinner.
He held it in his hand and looked at it, and a corresponding copy was stuffed in Li Nai's side. Li Nai looked up and saw that the person in front of him was also looking.
There was a knowing smile on her face.
Qiqi sat next to him and handed him a book, but she didn't read it because she didn't understand what was in the book at all.
She knew that Huo Shaoting should have wanted to bring his sister to this dinner, and the reason why she attended was just a foil.
And this is the home court of her sister and Huo Shaoting, so she doesn't want to look at things that don't belong to her.
Huo Shaoting flipped through the book in his hand for a long time.
He ignored the fact that Qiqi didn't touch the booklet. After reading all the contents in the booklet, he handed the booklet to the staff at the venue.
At this time, Li Nai happened to finish reading and said something to the secretary. When the secretary heard her words, she walked over to pass the message. When she got to Huo Shaoting, she called out: "Mr. Huo."
Huo Shaoting looked at the secretary. His eyes were calm, and his face looked a little dim in the dark venue.
The secretary told him: "Miss Lina said that the concentric knot carved in jade in the brochure is not bad."
When Huo Shaoting heard this, he asked, "What's the starting price?"
"Two million, from the Song Dynasty, was found in the tomb of a couple buried together. It is a testimony of love. It has many words of "togetherness" engraved on it."
Qiqi sat aside, and when she heard the word "togetherness", her expression became even paler.
When Huo Shaoting heard this, his expression was unclear in the dim place, and he didn't look at Qiqi's expression next to him.
Regarding the secretary's words, he only said: "Then let's shoot."
"OK."
After hearing his answer, the secretary walked towards Lina again.
