Transmigrated as the Stepmother of the Male Protagonist in a Campus Story - Chapter 56
Zhou Mingfeng showed surprising patience with Jiang Jinjin.
It also gave Zhou Yan a deeper understanding: his father is indeed a patriarch.
Since childhood, he never found that his father had such patience with him.
Zhou Mingfeng and Jiang Jinjin popularized this charity dinner. Basically, the Xi family auctioned off items worthy of collection, jewelry or antique calligraphy and paintings. Those with the higher price would get the money. At the same time, the Xi family would also donate the money to people in need in society. . Therefore, this kind of charity dinner is meaningful, but the Zhou family and the Xi family do not have business dealings, and it is fine to not participate in the auction. After all, there are only a few things at an auction, but there are many people present. If the bidding is not successful, those who are willing can also donate their own heart. This is not compulsive.
“What about your plan?” Jiang Jinjin asked.
Zhou Mingfeng shook his head, “There is no plan.”
He added, “As I said, the company has no relationship with Yuansheng, just come and join us.”
Jiang Jinjin understood.
So this time it really did what she wanted. She shoots whenever she wants, no matter how expensive the price, he will do it for her. It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t want to shoot, it won’t have any bad influence.
In this way, Jiang Jinjin was relieved.
The three people came to the venue of the dinner. Yuansheng Group is rich in wealth. This dinner is also held in a manor. Jiang Jinjin is wearing a crescent white off-shoulder dress with a set of diamond jewelry, which is neither too exaggerated nor too simple. After getting out of the car, she decisively took Zhou Mingfeng’s arms and looked left and right. She felt that she was the most beautiful cub tonight, not because of the beauty of her dress or the number of diamonds. Shan, but the two guardians standing on her left and right, are really too much to save her face.
Zhou Mingfeng and Zhou Yan’s appearance and demeanor are really excellent.
This weird combination of three members appeared at the same time, which indeed attracted the attention of many people.
After all, this can be regarded as Zhou Mingfeng’s first time bringing his newlyweds and sons to such occasions.
Jiang Jinjin didn’t expect that he would meet a half-year-old person here—Yun Xin.
Yun Xin was more surprised than Jiang Jinjin. She never expected that Zhou Yan would come today!
Zhou Mingfeng and Yun Yahua are also good friends. When they meet here, they naturally want to say hello. Jiang Jinjin smiled and held Zhou Mingfeng’s hand and Zhou Yan followed Jiang Jinjin. Jiang Jinjin did not ignore Yun Xin’s extremely surprised expression.
After some greetings, Yun Yahua looked at Zhou Yan, “A Yan is here too? It’s the first time, right.”
Zhou Mingfeng glanced at Jiang Jinjin, “Well, he listens to her, and if I let him come, he won’t come.”
Zhou Yan: “…?”
But Zhou Yan did not deny it either.
Mrs. Yun happily said: “When the child is older, it is time to come out to meet the elders and learn something that is not in the books, Ayan, it happens that you and Yunxin are sitting together? You two have a common topic. We. There is a generation gap with them.”
In the following sentence, Mrs. Yun told Jiang Jinjin.
Jiang Jinjin has a business smile on his face.
Yun Xin looked at Zhou Yan expectantly. She thinks this kind of occasion is not interesting, but if you can work with Zhou Yan…
Zhou Yan looked at Jiang Jinjin, “Aren’t you uncomfortable? I’ll follow you.”
Jiang Jinjin: “???”
The kid cursed her?
Zhou Yan looked at Mrs. Yun again. Although he was madly cool, he was very polite to his respected elders. He nodded and explained, “My dad asked me to take care of him. I really can’t go away. I’m sorry.”
Jiang Jinjin understood that Zhou Yan was using her as a backer.
He just didn’t want to sit with Yun Xin, so he took her as an excuse.
The reason why Jiang Jinjin didn’t demolish his station, except for his own reason, was that the astonishment on Yun Xin’s face pleased her.
As soon as Zhou Yan said this, everyone around him heard it secretly.
They are all surprised that Zhou Mingfeng, the newlywed wife, has two brushes, and he has subdued Zhou’s father and son at the same time. When Zhou Yan said this, there was no reluctance in his tone.
After being surprised, Mrs. Yun smiled and said, “Well, Ayan has always been a filial and sensible child.”
Zhou Mingfeng had a panoramic view of all this, but he also smiled without saying a word.
In order to perform this drama to the extreme, Jiang Jinjin deliberately said to Zhou Yan when passing by Yun Xin: “Xiao Yan, I seem to have committed hypoglycemia. You can help me get a piece of cake. By the way, I don’t. Eat chocolate.”
Zhou Mingfeng’s eyes pressed with a smile.
Zhou Yan felt his scalp tingling: What the **** is Xiao Yan? ?
But despite this, Zhou Yan had to cooperate with her and nodded patiently, “Okay.”
Then obediently went to the self-service area.
Jiang Jinjin glanced at Yun Xin, and saw that the little girl seemed to be crumbling, her expression fragile.
She is more careful.
But she could indeed feel the subtlety Yun Xin treated her, as if she was a vicious stepmother who would harm Zhou Yan. She can’t control what others think, just like Yan Zhengfei is a fool, talking and laughing with her, but who knows that Yan Zhengfei doesn’t think like Yunxin? It doesn’t matter how she thinks, and she can’t hear other people’s voices, but she can’t do too much, right?
All right.
Don’t irritate the little girl too much.
Under the leadership of the staff, they entered the auction hall. Oncoming a woman in a black suit came. This is the most imposing woman Jiang Jinjin has ever seen. She walks with wind. When the woman saw Zhou Mingfeng, there was a smile on her face. She walked over and naturally did not ignore Jiang Jinjin beside Zhou Mingfeng.
I don’t know if it is Jiang Jinjin’s illusion.
She always felt that the woman’s eyes were a little wrong when she looked at her.
She still counted in her heart, and the woman looked at her for five seconds.
Zhou Mingfeng talked and laughed freely: “Mr Xi.”
Only then did Jiang Jinjin react. This turned out to be President Xi Zhiyi who killed his brother in the legend.
No wonder it is so powerful.
Xi Zhiyi walked over and stretched out her hand, and after shaking hands with Zhou Mingfeng, she let go. She looked at Jiang Jinjin.
Zhou Mingfeng stretched out his arm around Jiang Jinjin’s waist, his attitude was intimate, and his tone even had a hint of pampering, “Jinjin, this is President Xi.”
Xi Zhiyi’s figure pauses slightly, and a trace of doubt and surprise flashes in his eyes. After all, she was also a person in the market that made some people fearful, and the city government didn’t even lose to Zhou Mingfeng, and almost no one could catch the change in her expression, except Zhou Mingfeng.
“Mr Xi, hello.” Jiang Jinjin was generous, neither overbearing nor overbearing.
“Mr. Xi, this is my wife.” Zhou Mingfeng glanced at Xi Zhiyi, the eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses with a gentle and introverted smile.
What does Xi Zhiyi don’t understand.
She stretched out her hand, as if it was the first time she saw Jiang Jinjin, “Hello, Mrs. Zhou.”
The two hands clasped each other, and then quickly let go.
There was a calm expression on Xi Zhiyi’s face, “Mr. Zhou, thank you and your wife for your support and visit. If there is any lack of hospitality, please forgive me.”
“Mr Xi is polite.” Zhou Mingfeng said in a calm tone, “I wish Mr. Xi a successful charity dinner in advance.”
A staff member came to deliver red wine.
Zhou Mingfeng had a drink with Xi Zhiyi.
Jiang Jinjin also clinked a cup with Xi Zhiyi, and Xi Zhiyi smiled: “Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, I still have guests, so let’s get out of here.”
“Well, Mr. Xi, go busy.”
After Xi Zhiyi left with her assistant, Jiang Jinjin was still looking at her back.
When Zhou Mingfeng took the red wine glass in her hand, she reacted and said in a low voice: “She just watched me for a long time.”
Zhou Yan had been a background board for a long time, and couldn’t help but say: “How long can it be. Just take a look.”
Jiang Jinjin turned his head, “Are you having trouble with me today?”
Zhou Yan: “Who asked you to call me like that.”
Zhou Mingfeng still hugged Jiang Jinjin, sighed helplessly, and explained in a low voice: “It’s probably because she hasn’t seen you before, so she’s a little curious.”
“That’s it.” Jiang Jinjin recalled. Indeed, President Xi hadn’t looked at her for a long time.
In fact, at this banquet, anyone has been staring at her for a long time.
The main reason is that Zhou Mingfeng is too low-key, and the wedding is also very simple. Many people have never seen her.
Thinking about this, Jiang Jinjin said: “That’s your problem.”
Zhou Mingfeng came back to his senses, smiled and nodded, “You are right.”
The auction begins.
Jiang Jinjin was sitting in the middle, Zhou Mingfeng was on her left and Zhou Yan was on her right, which made her feel at ease.
The auction items were exactly the same as Zhou Mingfeng had guessed. Most of them are jewelry, calligraphy and calligraphy. Everyone is here to cheer. Naturally, they are not too stingy. Jiang Jinjin watched a set of calligraphy and painting with a starting price of 4 million. After a round of auctions, it reached 800. For the value of 10,000, there are even people calling for the price.
After watching this scene, Jiang Jinjin just wanted to say that she really didn’t understand the rich world.
So, she took out her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Zhou Mingfeng: [Is it a collection value? 】
She also checked it just now, and the author of this calligraphy and painting is not very famous.
Zhou Mingfeng looked down, and his slender fingers were editing word by word on the phone: [Fortunately, this author is still alive. 】
Jiang Jinjin almost laughed out loud: [? ? 】
Zhou Mingfeng: [Objective facts. 】
This is a bet.
Jiang Jinjin: [So eight million is not lost? 】
Zhou Mingfeng: [If you like it, you won’t lose money. 】
Jiang Jinjin: [Ok, I don’t like it very much. 】
The two communicated on WeChat one by one. Jiang Jinjin had raised the card twice out of a “coming all come” mentality, but seeing that the price was getting higher and higher, she didn’t bother to raise it again. This charity banquet may be of great significance to others, but for Zhou Mingfeng, it is just a banquet. So, let those who want to build a good relationship with Yuansheng Group to bid, they will be the background board to accompany the run.
When the two were able to chat, suddenly the bidding introducer said: “Next,”
The introducer paused obviously, and something like an accident would happen.
The atmosphere was suddenly quiet.
Jiang Jinjin locked the screen of his phone and looked up at the stage.
The introducer has first-rate professional skills, and he quickly reacted: “This is a painting by Mr. Xi Chengguang. If I remember correctly, this painting has also won a very prestigious competition award. Superb skills…”
Jiang Jinjin was attracted by the quiet discussion from the people behind.
There is also a couple behind.
“Why would Xi Chengguang’s paintings be auctioned? No, he has passed away. The things are very precious relics. Why did the Xi family still put it out for auction? What do you mean?”
“Who knows. It seems that the highlight is this painting, should we follow it?”
“It depends on the situation, whether Mr. Sun follows or not, but what happened to the Xi family today? It’s too strange, I really can’t figure it out.”
Jiang Jinjin is still working hard to listen to gossip.
Only then did I discover why the atmosphere inside the venue suddenly became weird. The original author of the painting that was auctioned was actually the deceased brother of Mr. Xi?
This is really strange.
She was too focused on listening to some “rich gossip”, coupled with the dim lights in the venue, she didn’t even see Zhou Mingfeng’s eyes cold.
When she turned her head to look at the painting on the stage, Zhou Mingfeng returned to her previous look, but shook the hand that was randomly placed on her knees unconsciously.
In all fairness, from Jiang Jinjin’s aesthetic point of view, this painting is indeed well drawn.
It can be seen that the painter seems to be in a good mood, the colors are bright, and they match well.
The blue sky, the sea and the beach are in the picture.
The starting price turned out to be two million.
Jiang Jinjin wanted to raise a card, but he didn’t want to raise it.
Zhou Mingfeng saw her hesitation. He didn’t send another message this time. Instead, he leaned over and asked in a low voice in her ear: “Like it?”
Jiang Jinjin didn’t know whether to nod or shook his head.
It would be no good to say what she heard from her true psychology.
So she clicked on her phone, and when others were bidding, she lowered her message: [Is this worth collecting? 】
Zhou Mingfeng had a slight meal: [Don’t worry about this, do you like it? 】
Jiang Jinjin: [I like it. 】
Zhou Mingfeng looked at the word “Like” on the screen of the phone, his eyes surging with dim light.
He paused, and then edited the message “Then shoot”…
Before he could send it out, her message came in again: [However, if it exceeds four digits, I don’t want to shoot. 】
She may not really appreciate the cells.
This kind of painting is really good to hang on the wall, but the price is more than four digits, so forget it.
She is too vulgar. She always feels that it is millions or even ten million. Isn’t it fragrant to buy a house?
Zhou Mingfeng was stunned, looking at the news, his expression was extremely happy for a while.
Even Zhou Yan looked at it and wondered: Are these two people tired? What are they talking about so happy? ?
