Chapter 217
Mayor Feng’s official residence was a bit more imposing than the Golden Mansion.
It was already dark.
Yang Yuyan was sitting in the car, looking out like a country bumpkin.
Su Chunjun sat next to her, also very interested in looking out with her, as if he had never seen this street scene that he was tired of seeing.
The driver in front of him kept his ears open to the two people behind him, and tsked in his heart.
This Miss Yang has been talking non-stop since the car drove here.
Ms. Yang: “Yo, the streetlights here are all in good shape, they haven’t been smashed.”
The street lamps on the street were all smashed, not a single good one, now at night, half of the city is dark as night, even the stores are not open for business.
Of course, this side is different from other places, not only the street lamps are good, but also more than other places.
“Yes, there are more lights here.” Mr. Su took his fiancée’s shoulder and said smilingly.
Ms. Yang: “The Golden Mansion is also over here.”
Mr. Su said: “I remember, just over there.” He also reached out his hand to point over there, where he pointed to the black hole, can not see anything.
Of course, there are not many residential buildings here, except for the big villas, it is just empty land.
Ms. Yang: “There really aren’t many people.” The traffic is full of cars, each with a small flag, the Japanese flag, the British flag, the American flag, and the Portuguese flag, and so on.
“There are a lot of foreigners, are there a lot of foreigners living here?” She asked.
Mr. Su had a question and answered, “Foreigners all live in the Concession, these are all here for the banquet.”
Miss Yang Er was surprised, “Foreigners also come to attend Mayor Feng’s banquet?”
Mr. Su said smilingly, “Mayor Feng has many foreign friends.”
Chen driver said in his heart, listening to this voice, Mr. Su and his fiancée both do not respect Mayor Feng too much, there is some meaning of underestimating people.
Miss Yang is a student, have this idea is not surprising, the strange thing is that Mr. Su usually did not show half of the attitude, with his fiancée, but so open, not only did not teach her to be careful with words and deeds, but also with her to say.
Yang Yuyan took out the invitations she received for the banquet, which was accompanied by a pamphlet with the items to be raised on stage for tonight’s charity banquet, including those to help women and children, widows and orphans, and those to help martyrs, that is, the parents, wives and daughters of the fallen soldiers, and so on. Her request for donations to help □□ is not very strange.
If she had been asked a year ago to speak on stage to raise funds, she would not have done it. But now she is not afraid, and before she came here, she wrote a small script, and her speech was limited to five minutes. Money is sure to donate, to the meeting of the people more or less will donate some, a few thousand dollars is a small meaning.
However, the main point of her coming to the meeting is not to raise funds, but to announce to everyone: Su Chunjun is the owner. Please stand aside if you are a matchmaker!
Of course, for her this was just an additional purpose, she was here to find money, and a few thousand dollars would be enough to cover expenses for a while! At least she won’t have to worry about money for three months!
Zhu Yanshu wrote letters every day, it would be nice to beg for a thousand dollars in donations a month. It’s worth it to get a few thousand dollars just for her visit.
When she came, Zhu Yanshu said that if she didn’t have this opportunity, she would have wanted to come here to raise money.
For the sake of money, it was worth sacrificing a little time.
As for the risk, she really didn’t feel much.
In two lifetimes, she had never experienced anything like this. No one in her living environment had such a prominent and risky status position either. Unexpectedly, after crossing over once, not only did she become a hot-blooded young man herself, but finding a boyfriend could also have such a complicated status.
The sense of excitement in Yang Yuyan’s heart was greater than the fear.
She put the invitation into her pearl handbag, grabbed the gold collar hanging around her neck and said, “It’s so heavy, take it off first, I’ll put it on when I arrive.”
Chen driver then peeked back to see Mr. Su obediently, really lowered his head to help his fiancée remove the gold collar and put it in his hand to hold.
He secretly appealed in his heart, tonight I’m afraid there are quite a few people who are going to scare off their eyes.
Come to the banquet today, how to dress in the small red building is also after some discussion.
Second Miss Yang has a lot of clothes, engaged to do a small dress there is one has not been on the body, because she likes cheongsam, old style, new style have done a lot of pieces, which one to take out are not ashamed.
She tried one piece at home, Ms. Zhu was not satisfied, and hated that it was too late to order a new dress.
Prof. Dai said, “Yan Yan is a young girl, no need to wear makeup, just a little bit of ordinary, innocent and naive is very cute.”
So Miss Yang wore a silk cheongsam with small yellow flowers on a white background that Mr. Su also said looked good, with five-quarter sleeves and no pinched waist, but because of the good tailoring, she appeared to be standing tall.
She usually wore two twisted braids, but tonight she was given a princess-style coiffure by Zhang Ma’s handiwork, and wore one of Ms. Zhu’s pearl hair clips.
On her ears were the gold earrings that Ms. Zhu had given her when she was engaged, and around her neck originally hung the same gold chain that had been tied at the time of her engagement, but Mr. Su had rushed back to pick her up and brought with him a piece of the Eight Treasures gold collar that he had ordered from Lao Fengxiang.
Mr. Su’s taste is not vulgar, did not play that kind of crude model, nor did he play fancy, but simple flower branch look. There were pendants to hang underneath, and he had brought along two sets of them, a single large jadeite pendant, and a box of six teardrop-shaped gold steel stones.
“I don’t know what you’re wearing, let’s see you wear them with it.” Mr. Su said as such.
Ms. Zhu liked the gold steel stone ones, trendy and shiny. But today, Second Miss Yang is not dressed in a flashy way, so both are not suitable, so she only wears the circle, but this one circle is three hundred grams, from the time she puts it on, it presses down on her neck and weighs down.
Second Miss Yang wore it halfway, the freshness passed, and began to scream for her neck.
She touched her wrist and said, “I have enough jewelry for one hand.”
On her right hand was the gold watch that Mr. Su bought her, and on her left hand was the string of tourmalines that Mr. Su gave her. This time Mr. Su went to old phoenix mascot on this string of tourmaline to bring over, ask them to change the rope and string again, the rope was originally twisted in the gold wire, the color is not bright after a long time, the re-strike the rope naturally better look.
Mr. Su said, “You wear rich is my face.”
Miss Yang Er hummed: “You use gold to beat a dress for me, I wear it every day.”
Mr. Su was then amused.
Mr. Su rushed back to pick up his fiancée and came back a little late, the car didn’t arrive until eight forty.
Driver Chen stopped the car and hurriedly came around to open the door, the ones who greeted the guests in front of the door were Miss Shao and Lv Qifang, the two of them finally saw Mr. Su’s car arrive and hurriedly came down from the steps.
Mrs. Shao smiled before she spoke, “Mr. Su has finally arrived, Old Feng has asked several times.”
Before her words fell, Su Chunjun got out of the car and turned around first, reaching into the car and helping out a young lady.
It was the Second Miss Yang that I had seen that day!
I didn’t have time to take a close look at her that day, but today, Second Miss Yang has made up her face, adding to her elegance.
In the darkness of the night, surrounded by bright lights, Miss Yang wore a plain white dress, standing beside her like a guardian god Mr. Su, her posture was generous and relaxed, so Mrs. Shao envied her from the bottom of her heart.
She didn’t have anything to be afraid of or to worry about, because there was someone she could rely on.
Lu Qifang also felt that Second Miss Yang looked prettier than that day when she saw her, was it the jewelry she was wearing? Or her hairstyle? Or her youth and beauty?
Mrs. Shao smiles, “Welcome, welcome!”
Su Chunjun made an introduction, “This is Mrs. Shao.”
Yang Yuyan then smiled and shook hands with Mrs. Shao.
Su Chunjun once again skipped over Lv Qifang, not treating him as a character.
Lv Qifang had nothing to be angry about, as he was now running errands for Mrs. Shao in order to get into the banquet, and his status was similar to that of an errand boy, so Mr. Su didn’t need to introduce every subordinate to him.
But what made him happy was that Miss Yang was obviously much more amiable than Mr. Su, and she even gave him a special look and smiled at him.
Yang Yuyan really couldn’t figure out who all these people were, this one looked like he was dressed like a young master, but Su Chunjun didn’t introduce him, and Mrs. Shao didn’t introduce him either – he couldn’t be a subordinate, could he?
She could only smile a little.
Mrs. Shao saw that Su Chunjun didn’t seem to like Lv Qifang, so she told him to check if there was any sweet soup or snacks in the kitchen, and sent him away, before she took Yang Yuyan’s arm and led the two of them in cordially.
Once inside, Yang Yuyan was first startled.
Inside is actually a sea of people!
She has not participated in the banquet held by the mayor of such a large official position, her heart defaulted it is a high-style banquet, it should be very few people, the environment is quiet and elegant, playing elegant piano music and so on.
But the scene in front of us is simply like a food market, everyone is shoulder to shoulder, dressed in gorgeous men and women gathered together to talk, waiters to send wine are sideways from the people through the cracks, the piano music is indeed there, that is, mixed in the sound of the people simply can not hear.
Yang Yuyan said to Su Chunjun, “Why are there so many people?”
Su Chunjun laughed, “Mayor Feng has many friends.”
He took her by the shoulders and escorted her through the crowd. Mrs. Shao led the way in front, and from time to time, people came over to talk, but with Mrs. Shao there, and Mr. Su’s cold face, their group walked through the heavy sea of people without much delay, and walked up to Mayor Feng.
Mayor Feng was sitting on a sofa with his friends, located at the east end of the banquet, in a secluded area, around which was considered to be the quietest place in the banquet.
Sitting with Mayor Feng was Mrs. Feng.
Mrs. Shao, as if she were a butterfly, walked through the crowd to Mayor Feng and invited him to take credit, “Look who I brought here?”
Mayor Feng and those around him all looked over and together they saw Su Chunjun with his famous fiancée.
Second Miss Yang, who stood beside Su Chunjun with a curvaceous look, looked like she had come down to earth from those words all of a sudden, leaving everyone with the impression in their hearts that, oh, indeed, they were a talented man and a beautiful woman, a natural pair.
The eyes of these human elves were all hooked, and they could see clearly what was going on between the pair at once. Su Chunjun how much of the city, but in front of the eyes is just a man who is deeply in love with his fiancée, Miss Yang Er is young and beautiful, her eyes are bright and godly, her demeanor is naive and natural, and she is not submissive, this is a girl who has a good family background, has not been through the hardships of the world, and is smart and confident.
Mayor Feng immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, Su Chunjun did not just find a random woman to fool around with, this fiancée was real. He exchanged a look with Cai Wenhua, so that they could also feel more at ease with Su Chunjun.
