Hard and Colorful Life - C193
I’ve actually met quite a few people I can’t get along with. However, I don’t think anyone would like a woman who has the upper hand in every word she says.
It was simple and unadorned, but in his heart, he felt that this place was filled with sincere goodwill, and there was no comparison between them.
“This is indeed the first time.” I also lightly said.
After saying that, she shot me a look as well, causing me to look towards the sharp talking lady from before.
So she was still a member of the Guan Family. I didn’t expect that she would be so rude to me like this. No matter what, I just couldn’t like her. At most, I could understand why she would do that.
Looks like everyone thinks that I am Guan Sheng’s girlfriend, is Guan Sheng’s EQ so low that he would leave me here alone?
He then looked at his phone, saw that there were no changes to his message and phone, and sighed helplessly. He could only put it down and continue helping Guan Sheng look at the people.
The auction didn’t seem to be that intense, but in the end, it was still because the items being auctioned were all precious herbs. There were many doctors here, especially the old man in Chinese medicine, who was welcomed by everyone just now.
He had also received a lot of items from the auction, but they were ultimately something his family had taken out.
It was already past half of the auction, but Guan Sheng was still nowhere to be seen. If they did not see him in such a long time, it would be inappropriate for them not to be anxious.
He dialed the number again and got a call. There was still no answer.
“Damned Guan Sheng, you actually dared to leave me here alone, don’t let me know that you’re home!” I hung up and cursed under my breath.
It is also because I was in a hurry and didn’t pay much attention when I scolded others. Thus, I directly expressed it in such a manner. When others looked at me, I could only lower my head.
When I’m angry, I scold people. When I’m in front of a group of people, I seem to lack a home tutor, right?
But thinking about it, I was originally a delinquent. Even though I was raised to be polite and docile since I was young, my temper was still as sharp as a kitten’s.
If someone had truly provoked me, I would actually still take my revenge. It’s just that I’m actually worrying about whether or not something has happened to Guan Sheng.
But if something really did happen, why was it that no one answered the phone?
It was bought at a sky-high price by a medicinal herb merchant under the famous Shengtung Group. Now, for the sake of our hospital’s charity project, you all have to worry too much and agree to donate such a precious agarwood.
As the host introduced the stage, I was also stunned. She said ‘Shengtung Group’? Is it the “Sheng Teng” I know?
I panicked a little because I just heard a name. At this moment, the host took off the red cloth covering the exhibit and everyone went into an uproar.
“There’s actually such a big piece of agarwood, even if we have money, we wouldn’t be able to buy it, right?”
“Most of the people here are doctors too, how could they afford it? At most, they can help identify it, right?”
“Such a big piece of incense, it’s fine if you cut some powder for me. It really is extremely precious, how did you get it?”
“…”
Most people were questioning the origin of the agarwood, but I knew that those who were able to obtain something from it, able to withstand the scrutiny of so many knowledgeable doctors, would definitely be considered top tier medicinal herbs.
Although this banquet is actually just a charity fund starting project, but it can’t be helped that there are some elements involved in the promotion. And all these medical related businesses were originally here to support the event, so how could I forget about this matter?
Since ancient times, medicine had never been separated. If one did not have the necessary medicinal ingredients, there was no point in using such superb medical skills.
If the host had not mentioned it, I would have completely forgotten about it. Could it be that the current Yue Guaner, a big boss, had also appeared?
Thinking about that, he subconsciously looked towards the back, but even if Yue Guaner wanted to attend, he should have been sitting in the front, and not behind me. How could I have forgotten about this?
He was still upset about it though. “What’s wrong with you?” I shook my head at the glib man’s question.
“It’s nothing. I feel like I have a headache.”
Everyone was staring at it, and all of them were staring at it. At this moment, I could only be distracted to the point where I could only be afraid of missing Guan Sheng’s figure. Just where did that fellow go?
But that glance …
“Next, we will invite the spokesperson of the Shengtung Group. Miss Shen Mengfei, come up to the stage and introduce you to us.”
I immediately retracted my gaze, the moment I saw Yue Guaner, my entire body froze. How could it be Yue Guaner? Why would he appear for such a small banquet?
That Shen Mengfei was the female artist they met last time at the hotel. Were they really going to get married?
I only hope that he did not notice the look when I turned around to look at him. I even more so do not want him to know that I am also here now, in the name of Guan Sheng’s girlfriend.
However, at this time, the female artiste Shen Mengfei went up on stage with a word.
“You’re not feeling any discomfort, are you?”
“I’m fine, I’m really fine, but Guan Sheng has been gone for too long, do I need to look for him?”
“He’ll be back soon.” He comforted me.
I suddenly felt grateful to the glib man next to me for caring about me. After all, if I didn’t divert my attention now, I was afraid that I would faint from the stress.
I just hope that he doesn’t see me, and that I won’t dare to look back.
