Rebirth 1983: Starting from taking back the family property.

Chapter 534 Charity Gala (1)

On the day of the charity gala, Lu Jiaxin took a bath after her nap and then began to style herself. She designed two evening gowns for herself, one was a black halter-neck long dress, and the backup was a long butterfly-shaped cheongsam. The black evening gown was paired with the antique jewelry bought by Nie Zhan, and the cheongsam was paired with jade ornaments.

After finishing her hairstyle and makeup, Lu Jiaxin went upstairs to change into an evening gown. When she walked downstairs, Miao Na praised her, "The boss is so beautiful."

Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a stunning figure. Alas, although Mr. Nie is very good, she still feels sorry for her boss. With such good conditions and still so young, she could have had more relationships. It's a pity that she was stuck with Nie Zhan so early.

Yan Yijun said in a very unpleasant tone: "I still think the boss looks better in a professional suit."

This is what he really said. Lu Jiaxin, dressed in a professional suit, is smart and capable, and she has a spirit that few people have.

Miao Na rolled her eyes at him, calling him a bumpkin who didn't appreciate anything.

Nie Zhan looked at Lu Jiaxin and said with a smile, "So beautiful."

Lu Jiaxin looked at him in a gray suit and said with a smile, "You are also very handsome. Ah Zhan, we may be the most beautiful couple at the party tonight."

Miao Na said flatteringly, "Boss, it's not possible, it's certain. There's no one prettier than you or more handsome than Boss Nie in the entire city of Hong Kong."

This mouth is so sweet that Lu Jiaxin is reluctant to let her leave. Unfortunately, Miao Na still didn't change her mind, saying that she didn't want to stay in one place for too long, and she would leave when Xiaoxiao came back.

The charity party started at 5:30, and the auction was scheduled for 7:30. Lu Jiaxin ate a small bowl of shrimp dumplings, put on makeup, and then went to the party with Nie Zhan in the Phantom. Although dinner was provided there, she had to eat something to fill her stomach and then eat a little more there.

Before leaving, they called Zong Shimeng, and she arrived right after they arrived. Seeing Lu Jiaxin's dress, Zong Shimeng smiled and said, "Your dress is very beautiful. If you have time, please design a few for me so that I can wear them when I attend banquets in the future."

Tonight, Zong Shimeng wore a champagne-colored long dress, but because of her plump figure, the effect was greatly reduced. Alas, women, they have given too much for their families and children.

"can."

The two of them were talking as they walked, and as soon as they entered the hall someone called her: "Lu Jiaxin, you are coming to the auction too!"

Lu Jiaxin looked up at the person who called her, and she didn't expect it to be her college classmate Li Huini. She smiled and said, "Yes, the charity party gave me an invitation, and it is my duty to do charity."

Although I have never participated in group activities at school, I still know most of my classmates. Li Huini is also the daughter of a wealthy family, but this girl does not have the arrogance of a rich girl. Instead, she is intellectual and generous, and has a very good relationship with the class.

Li Huini heard that she donated a lot of money to the mainland, but her company was not listed and the donation was made in her personal name, so it did not cause any criticism.

After greeting Zong Shimeng, Li Huini asked with a smile: "Jia Xin, there are a lot of good things tonight, I wonder which ones you like?"

When Zong Shimeng heard that they were college classmates, she did not disturb them and went to talk to someone she knew.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I donated a jade ruyi."

She looked through the catalogue of the auction items, but found nothing she liked. The more good things you own, the more discerning you become.

The items for this auction were mostly donated by people like her, so they couldn't be rare items. Of course, since it was a charity auction, she would still buy a few things later. Li Huini was very surprised: "You donated the jade ruyi? My mother likes it very much and asked me to buy it."

After chatting for a while, Li Huini introduced several friends to her, both men and women, all of whom were rich young ladies. One of the men was tall and handsome, and he was also humorous, especially his pair of peach blossom eyes, which were full of affection and could easily make people intoxicated when looking at you, but Lu Jiaxin was not among these people.

Lu Jiaxin didn't like the way the boy looked at her, and she was not interested in their topic, so she left with the excuse of going to the bathroom.

The man with peach blossom eyes said with some regret, "This Miss Lu is quite aloof."

Li Huini frowned and warned, "Don't mess around. Miss Lu is not like those girls you dated before who were easily fooled by you."

Only the face and the mouth can tell, those little girls are fascinated by him, but Lu Jiaxin is not a person who puts love first. Lu Jiaxin is very clear-headed, and you can tell by looking at the man she found, Nie Zhan. He is handsome, rich, loyal, and can help her make money. Alas, she also wants to find a boyfriend like this, but unfortunately she can't find one.

The man with peach blossom eyes said: "I can't serve a woman like this."

He saw clearly the disdain in Lu Jiaxin's eyes just now, so how could he go near her?

Nie Zhan saw Lu Jiaxin and said with a smile: "Why don't you chat with your classmates for a while?"

After one year in middle school and three years in college, the only person I was close to was Choi Ji-hye, who was studying law at Harvard. It was rare to see her talking to her college classmates, so I hoped we could chat more.

Lu Jiaxin said: "There was a man next to her, looking at me with eyes that he thought were affectionate. It was disgusting."

"Who is it?" Nie Zhan asked in a bad tone. He actually wanted to steal his girlfriend. He was looking for death!
Seeing that he was angry, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "He's just a clown. Don't worry about him."

The auction started on time at 7:30. Since all the auction items were donated, there were a wide variety of items, including jade ruyi, custom-made watches, sand pots and jade wares, jewelry, and calligraphy by famous contemporary masters.

Lu Jiaxin took a fancy to a diamond brooch, which was very unique in shape and workmanship, and she spent 200,000 yuan to buy it. In fact, even 100,000 yuan was too expensive for this brooch. However, the charity auction was intended to raise funds, so everyone tacitly paid a premium.

The jade ruyi was auctioned behind the brooch, and the asking price was 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. Hearing the price, Lu Jiaxin was very surprised: "Why is the starting price 500,000?"

Zong Shimeng said with a smile: "The jade ruyi you donated was something that belonged to the concubine of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. The material of this jade ruyi is high-quality, and the meaning is also good (Ruyi Ruyi, everything goes well), and it is an antique, so the starting price is naturally high. I have always wanted to ask you, why did you donate such a good thing?"

Lu Jiaxin didn't hide it: "I have something better than this. When it comes to charity, the more money we raise, the better."

Thinking about the news she had seen in her previous life, Lu Jiaxin lowered her voice and asked, "I heard that some people would put the donations into their own pockets, but the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals shouldn't do that, right?"

The Red Cross, for example, has lost its credibility because of too many unscrupulous things it has done, and people are no longer willing to donate money to it. Why should the money you have worked so hard to save be used to enrich the pockets of those parasites and let them eat and drink the best food and drink?

Zong Shimeng knew her concerns and said, "Don't worry! The destination of these donations will be announced by the end of the year, and those people won't dare to take them carelessly."
