Chapter 588: The Shen Family’s Charity Auction
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It had been three days since the filming of the romance variety show started. Seeing that the advertisement posted online by the official account was doing well, Director Yuan Qing’s mood improved today.
He could strike while the iron was hot and think about the content of the next few episodes before communicating with President Huo…
Yuan Qing was calculating the process after the show when he saw the person he had just thought of push open the door and appear in front of him.
“President… President Huo?” Yuan Qing subconsciously stood up and looked at him.
This person couldn’t be compared to the other guests. At the thought that the other party was his investor, Yuan Qing was sincerely respectful to Huo Yichen.
Huo Yichen waved his hand. “Are you done filming the first episode of the show?”
“Ah, it’s already being edited,” Yuan Qing replied reflexively.
Although he didn’t know why Huo Yichen suddenly turned his attention to the show, he still gave an honest answer.
Huo Yichen nodded. “Coincidentally, we have something on and will be absent for a few days.”
Both he and Murong Qiao were going to the charity auction. It would be best if there was no problem with the program.
Yuan Qing immediately nodded to indicate that he understood. Since his sponsor had already spoken, he would definitely agree. Moreover, a few days really wouldn’t delay the recording of the show.
Huo Yichen came to talk about this. After saying that, he turned around and planned to go out to look for Murong Qiao.
He turned around and pushed open the door, intending to leave. However, as soon as the door opened, he saw the very annoying woman who had pestered him yesterday.
“I-I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop.” Lu Ruman didn’t expect the door to suddenly open and hurriedly mumbled.
After lunch, she came over to ask for leave from the director, but she didn’t expect to hear Huo Yichen and Yuan Qing talking when she approached the door.
Coupled with her curiosity, she didn’t knock. In the end, she did not expect to be caught red-handed.
She subconsciously lowered her eyes, but her gaze swept past the red mark on the other party’s skin under his collar, and her heart skipped a beat.
That was actually Murong Qiao’s sudden bite last night. She had bitten him a little too hard, so the mark was still on Huo Yichen. In addition, Huo Yichen deliberately didn’t remove it and left it there as a proclamation.
Lu Ruman’s thoughts raced. She wanted to say something to salvage her image in Huo Yichen’s heart, but she saw the other party ignore her and walk past.
The fawning smile that Lu Ruman was about to raise froze on her face. She stood rooted to the ground and looked a little awkward.
She originally thought that meeting Huo Yichen here would be a good opportunity to get to know him, but Huo Yichen didn’t give her a chance at all. “What are you standing here for?” Director Yuan Qing walked over to look at her.
Lu Ruman came back to her senses. “Ah, I have something on and wish to ask for a leave.”
She was clearly here to look for the director, but after seeing Huo Yichen, she was a little distracted. Thinking that her two interactions with him had been ineffective, Lu Ruman felt a little frustrated.
The noon sun was always a little hot. It hung high in the cloudless blue sky, emitting a heat and light that made people unable to look straight at it.
The temperature of the sun rose a lot, so Murong Qiao had no choice but to take off the coat she had worn when she came out and tie it around her waist to cool herself down.
“I feel sleepy after eating. I feel like a pig.” Zuo Qing, who was walking beside her, sighed.
The two of them had just finished lunch. Coupled with the fact that there were no new activity notices in the afternoon, they walked to the garden beside the restaurant to take a walk to digest their food.
Zuo Qing stretched. “I suddenly remembered that I heard from the locals that there’s an especially effective temple in this town. I’d like to take a look when we’re free.”
“A very effective temple?” Murong Qiao’s attention was attracted to her.
Zuo Qing nodded. “The locals all say that it’s very effective, so it must have some effect. I heard that many people go there to ask for peace and blessings for love.”
“I see…” Murong Qiao expressed her understanding and remembered this temple in her heart.
If she was free, she would go with Ah Chen to take a look.
Murong Qiao added another note to the town’s schedule in her heart. Then, she felt her cell phone vibrate in her pocket. It was a message from her Fourth Brother, Yan Xiu.
“The new clothes were sent to your house. It’s for the auction.”
Yan Xiu had heard the news of her going to the auction from Murong Chen. It was also a coincidence that he took this opportunity to send his newly designed clothes to his Little Sister.
Murong Qiao’s lips curved. After typing a greeting, she suddenly felt her shoulders sink.
She turned around and met Huo Yichen’s gaze.
“There’s no problem with the director. Shall I book a plane now and go back together?” Huo Yichen patted her head.
The auction was tomorrow night. It was not good for them to prepare on the same day. That would seem a little insincere.
“I have no problem with that,” Murong Qiao agreed.
It was good to go back today. She could also try on the clothes that her Fourth Brother sent her so that no accidents would happen on the actual day.
The two of them discussed the time and went back together. Huo Yichen booked the plane tickets.
As for her Big Brother Murong Chen, Murong Qiao also sent a message later to inform him of the time of her return.
The plane was booked for the afternoon. When it landed, it was almost dusk.
Huo Yichen first asked the driver to send Murong Qiao back before leaving.
When Murong Qiao returned home, An Nuo was also there. When she saw Murong Qiao return, An Nuo was immediately happy.
“Qiao, why are you back early? I remember that you said that you would film for four to five days.” An Nuo hugged her.
It was said that a day apart was like three autumns. These few days, when Murong Qiao was not at home, An Nuo felt that the house was empty and couldn’t do anything.
Murong Qiao held the laptop and explained to her, “There’s an auction invitation at the last minute.”
“Auction?” An Nuo hesitated for a moment before coming to a realization. “I remember that my father also received it two days ago. It’s the one held by Old Master Shen.”
“Yes,” Murong Qiao admitted.
At the mention of the Shen family, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but think more.
She had never paid much attention to the matters of the rich families, so she didn’t know much about the Shen family. Even if she investigated at the last minute, she wouldn’t understand much.
The Shen family didn’t seem to be very ostentatious, so many people didn’t have a deep impression of it.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Murong Qiao didn’t have time to think too much.
The night passed and it was time for the auction. Not long after Murong Qiao woke up, she was pressed into the living room by the makeup artist and started to style for the banquet at night.
Then, she changed into the new gown that her Fourth Brother had given her. After the makeup artist was done, Murong Qiao hurriedly went downstairs and saw Murong Chen’s car parked in front of her.
The driver was Jiang Chi. Seeing that it was him, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but relax a lot.
“Why do I feel like I haven’t seen you in a while? You seem to have lost weight.” Murong Chen’s gaze stopped on her slightly sharp chin and he frowned.
Murong Qiao immediately retorted, “How is that possible? I just ate roasted meat yesterday.”
Although of course, after eating a little, she was drunk and was forced to leave. Murong Qiao still felt a little indulgent.
However, Ah Chen’s roasting skills were really not bad. Murong Qiao couldn’t help but reminisce about it at the thought of it and secretly decided to try it again in the future.
“Okay, okay, okay.” Murong Chen’s expression softened.
He looked at Murong Qiao. “Don’t be too nervous when you go to the auction later. I’ll just bring you to meet some people.”
“There might be more people coming. Remember to look for me immediately if there’s a problem.”
Thinking of how grand the scene would be, Murong Chen couldn’t help but remind her a few more times.
With the Shen family’s background and reputation, there were a lot more people invited to the auction this time. However, when there were too many people, trouble would easily arise. Murong Chen couldn’t help but worry..
