shallow marriage deep love

The awards show is about to begin.

Lu Qinglan saw a man who had just come on stage looked familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while.

Seeing her confusion, Xiao Gu quietly leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister Lan, you forgot, he is the one who stood with Teacher Zhang last time. It is said that he is a friend of Teacher Zhang for many years. He was invited to come here. Awards."

It was him.

No wonder it looks so familiar.

Perhaps it was the relationship between things of a kind flocking together and people being in groups, Lu Qinglan subconsciously thought that that man, like Teacher Zhang, must have something admirable.

Seeing the clear expression on Lu Qinglan's face, Xiao Gu smiled again: "By the way, Sister Lan, you may not have noticed last time, but I saw it. When you turned around after you said that, he Seeing the kind of appreciation in your eyes, I think he should have a good impression of you. It would be even better if he is the one who presents the award to our magazine later."

"Really?" Lu Qinglan was a little surprised, but she was not proud of it. She still smiled, and said softly, "If it is really him who gave us the award, then it is really destined. But if you say that, I am afraid I'm looking forward to it."

Xiao Gu covered his mouth and smiled: "Who said no?"

The two were chatting happily, and Miao Yiyang and Shi Xiaorui came over together.

"This way!" Lu Qinglan waved her hand.

"Sister Qinglan." Shi Xiaorui happily sat down beside her, and then greeted Xiao Gu, "Xiao Gu."

"Sister Lan." Miao Yiyang said to Lu Qinglan after sitting down, "The promotional video has been handed over to the staff, and there will be no more mistakes this time. I will be responsible for it myself. Don't worry."

According to the usual practice, all award-winning magazines at the award ceremony need to prepare a video of their own magazines, firstly, to facilitate publicity, and secondly, with the idea of ​​learning from each other.For many magazines, more attention is paid to publicity. After all, in this kind of occasion, successful publicity is beneficial to their own company and has no harm.

Lu Qinglan Magazine had already handed in the video, but they didn't know what went wrong in the middle. Yesterday, they temporarily received from the organizer that the video was missing, and hoped to submit another copy before today's awards.Fortunately, the magazine still had a backup, and Miao Yiyang offered to improve it, and finally showed it to Lu Qinglan before handing it in.

"Thank you, Yiyang." Lu Qinglan said in a low voice.

Miao Yiyang still had no extra expression: "It's not hard, it should be."

As her voice fell, the awards show officially began.

Adhering to the concept of simplicity and efficiency, this award ceremony has never been nonsense, and it has always entered the topic directly. This year is also the same. After introducing the biggest sponsors Xia Yan and Xia Zixuan, the first award will begin.

Sitting on the stage, Xia Zixuan would shift his gaze to Lu Qinglan from time to time.

She is dressed very beautifully today, a crescent white long dress perfectly highlights her figure, even if she is pregnant now, it does not affect her demeanor at all, the makeup is very light, everything is just right, even the staff around her are very That's right, especially that little Gu who was always arguing with him, Xia Zixuan suddenly found that this girl was quite amazing when dressed up, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Xia Yan was sitting on his left, and after paying attention, he found that he was always looking at Lu Qinglan.Reminiscent of the seemingly familiar conversation between the two just now, he frowned, almost without any suspense, he thought of Mr. Xia.

Could it be that his grandfather's last bargaining chip was Xia Zixuan?Decided to have Xia Zixuan deal with Lu Qinglan and Ye Tingshen?
Thinking of this possibility, he subconsciously looked at Xia Zixuan twice more.

"Cousin..." Xia Zixuan, who came back to his senses, soon noticed the scrutiny of the people around him, and called him expectantly.

Xia Yan's face was expressionless, as if he was unintentionally probing: "Are you familiar with Yi Yue's Lu Qinglan?"

This was the first time that Xia Yan asked himself something since the relationship between the two became stiff. Xia Zixuan was so excited that he couldn't help himself, like a primary school student who got [-] points in an exam and wanted to ask his parents to praise him: "It's okay! We are friends!"

friend?

Xia Yan chewed the word secretly, a sneer quickly flashed in his eyes.

Xia Zixuan couldn't understand his expression, so he asked cautiously: "Cousin, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just ask casually." Xia Yan sat upright and didn't intend to speak again.

Although Xia Zixuan was disappointed, as long as he thought that Xia Yan took the initiative to talk to him today, he still felt very happy, and he even found it interesting to attend such a boring awards show.

Under the enthusiastic atmosphere at the scene, the award presentation has reached the fifth category, and the next fashion award is about to begin, and Yi Yue is shortlisted for this award.

It was obviously not the first time for Lu Qinglan to participate in this kind of occasion, but she still couldn't help getting nervous, and when the words "Yi Yue" appeared on the big screen as the fashion award winner, she became uncontrollably excited.

It's one thing to know in advance, but it's a different feeling when you actually arrive at the scene.In particular, the award presenters were Teacher Zhang and his friend!How can this make people not excited? !

Also excited were Shi Xiaorui and Xiao Gu, the faces of the two little girls were filled with joy.

Xiao Gu was more stable, and quickly stabilized his mind after the joy, and whispered in Lu Qinglan's ear: "Sister Lan, please slow down when you come on stage."

"I know." Lu Qinglan responded with a smile. That smile, like a hundred flowers blooming in spring, caught the attention of many people.

Many colleagues present knew Lu Qinglan, some were jealous, some sincerely wished her well, but without exception, they were all shaken by her smile when she came on stage.

Lu Qinglan walked up to the podium slowly, every step was extremely graceful.When she really stood on that seat and looked down, she suddenly became calm.

Mr. Zhang and his friend quickly glanced at each other, and they both saw the satisfaction and appreciation in each other's eyes. Whether it is a newcomer or an old man who has achieved certain achievements, they can sit in front of the honor without being surprised and calm. Just let people appreciate.The two of them have been in this industry for so many years, and they have seen too many people who are complacent and proud because of a little achievement. In fact, no matter what they do, pride is the worst thing, and a normal heart is very important.

Teacher Zhang nodded in satisfaction again, picked up the trophy and was about to speak, but unexpectedly——

"Wait! This award does not belong to Yi Yue!"

A majestic voice sounded from the other side of the podium.

And as the words fell, the audience was in an uproar.

A lady who was about the same age as Teacher Zhang walked over calmly, and when she got closer, there were a lot of breathing sounds from the audience.

Lu Qinglan was also taken aback when she saw her appearance.

Not for anything else, just because this lady is the former president of the industry association and... Teacher Zhang's ex-wife, Ms. Xia.

When Lu Qinglan first entered the industry, she accidentally heard gossip from other people. At that time, Teacher Zhang and Ms. Xia were recognized in the circle as talented and beautiful, and both of them were very good people. Divorced a year ago, Ms. Xia also stepped down as the president, but although she clearly said that she would no longer care about the affairs of the circle, many people in the industry association respect her very much, and the appraisal meeting will also ask Her opinion, although she never gives any opinion.

Such a person suddenly appeared at the awards ceremony today, and said sternly that the Fashion Award does not belong to Yi Yue, anyone would be confused.

Lu Qinglan was no exception.

She didn't feel that Ms. Xia's words made her embarrassed, but she was deprived of her honor for no reason, and without giving any reason, it would be very detrimental to Yi Yue if it spread.

She needs to ask clearly.

But before she could speak, Teacher Zhang frowned and asked, "Doesn't belong to Yi Yue? What do you mean by that?"

"It means literally." Ms. Xia glanced at Teacher Zhang lightly, her face was cold, "Don't tell me you can't even understand the words now, if you really don't understand, the president doesn't have to do it anymore .”

As soon as this remark came out, there were more whispers in the audience, and there were gossips, and their eyes kept wandering around Teacher Zhang and Ms. Xia.

I don't know if it was Lu Qinglan's illusion, but she always felt that although Ms. Xia was talking to Teacher Zhang just now, she was looking at her.

Teacher Zhang was a little bit embarrassed for a while, but she still controlled her emotions very well: "Since you said that the fashion award does not belong to Yi Yue, you have to give a reason. You know that all awards are taken seriously by the judging committee. Really, it was chosen without any selfish motives, you can’t deprive it just because it doesn’t belong!”

"You want a reason?" Ms. Xia sneered, as if she had heard a big joke, but in the next moment she changed into the expressionless face she had when she appeared on the stage, and it was a little more cold, making people afraid to approach, "There is no reason !"

"You!" A sentence of no reason seemed to ignite Teacher Zhang's temper. He stared at Ms. Xia with disapproval, "Don't use your willfulness to deny the results of the organizing committee. If you are here to watch, I welcome you, but If you're here to make trouble, then I'm sorry, but please get out!"

The sarcasm at the corner of Ms. Xia's mouth became stronger, and she didn't even look at the person in front of her: "What if I say I'm not?"

After speaking, the two confronted each other silently, and the picture looked weird.

Some people in the audience couldn't sit still, they stretched their necks to see more clearly, and some people cast sympathetic glances at Lu Qinglan from time to time.

No matter what Ms. Xia's reasons are, it is personally embarrassing to be deprived of honor under such circumstances.

People often subconsciously sympathize with those they think are weak.

Shi Xiaorui looked at the stage anxiously, her hands were tightly held together because of worry, she hurriedly asked Xiao Gu: "What should I do now? Sister Qinglan..."

"Don't worry, Sister Lan will definitely be able to handle it, don't panic." Xiao Gu patted her hand to show her composure, but even though she said that, she was actually worried, and at the same time, a lot of doubts flooded out.

Lu Qinglan stood there alone, taking a panoramic view of the reactions of many people in the audience, calming down, she told herself to calm down, and then, she took a step forward and walked in front of Ms. Xia.
