Seeing through stones, the awakening of superpowers

After Yuan Linglong finished washing, she put on a sky blue evening dress.

"So grand?"

"You'll know when you get there. We usually dress like this at parties."

Yuan Linglong shook her head helplessly.

This time Qiu Weijun invited half of her friends in her circle and half of them were domestic jewelry merchants. The standards can be said to be very high.

"Wait for me another five minutes."

Yuan Linglong sat in front of the dressing table and skillfully put on light makeup. She had a good foundation and simply modified it to make her complexion look more outstanding.

"If only I had skin like yours, I wouldn't have to wear makeup."

After Yuan Linglong finished putting on her makeup, she couldn't help but pinch Principal Lin's face.

"Let's go down."

Colonel Lin was really not used to her face-grabbing behavior.

The banquet was scheduled for five o'clock, and it was already four-fifty.

When Principal Lin and the others entered, Qiu Weijun was standing at the door to greet the guests. Sure enough, Yuan Linglong was right. Qiu Weijun wore a sun-green dress, which was a little exaggerated, but majestic and looked very beautiful.

"Hey, I knew that Principal Lin would come with you. Linglong, tell me, Principal Lin is also half the host of the banquet. Why doesn't he know how to share my worries?"

Seeing Principal Lin and Yuan Linglong, Qiu Weijun couldn't help but complain for a while, but then he praised Yuan Linglong for being beautiful, and then praised Principal Lin as well.

"Tsk tsk, Colonel Lin, you are enlightened. Young people should dress in bright colors so that they can be energetic."

Immediately, he patted Principal Lin on the back to encourage him.

"You can pull it down, we will go in first."

There were already a lot of people in the hall at this time. Principal Lin took a look and found that most of them were young people.

"Hey, I have to say hello to various people again soon."

Yuan Linglong looked at Principal Lin helplessly.

"Are you still afraid of society?"

Principal Lin was a little curious, but logically speaking, he shouldn't be.

"That's not true. I just feel so tired. Colonel Lin, please wait for me for a while. I see a few acquaintances that I need to greet."

"Well, you can do whatever you want."

In the center of the hall, many people have gathered. There are five glass display cabinets. Each display cabinet contains a piece of jadeite material. Three of them are pure meat and two are aniseed. They are prepared from more than 1000 pieces. The best ones selected from the auction materials seem to be a warm-up for tomorrow's auction tonight.

Lin Xiao didn't know anyone here, so he could only go to the showcase to watch the excitement.

"The Qiu family is playing a big game this time. These materials are of the highest quality."

A bespectacled man in his 50s said to the person next to him.

"I have never heard that the Qiu family was in the jade business before. It is said that this was the business of the eldest daughter of the Qiu family. I originally thought it was just for fun, but I didn't expect these pieces of material to be really good."

"Who knows, if the quality of the goods in tomorrow's auction can be half as good as these, then this trip will be worthwhile."

"Hey, what you mean by this is that you have prepared a lot of funds."

"No, no, I mainly came here to have fun and relax."

"Today we are mainly here to make friends. I heard that many of them are friends of the Qiu family. They are all children of the family, and they have quite a lot of energy."

"Come on, those who are capable don't need them. Those who are not capable enough to fight against those families will probably just be cannon fodder."

Although there are many people here, most of them are middle-aged and elderly people, with only a small number of young people. It seems that there are mainly jewelry merchants here.

Judging from what they said, most people were not optimistic about this auction, but they came here just to save the Qiu family's face.

Principal Lin looked at the time and saw that it was already five o'clock, but there was no sign of starting yet. It was probably that everyone had not arrived yet.

At this time, Colonel Lin suddenly spotted a familiar figure, it turned out to be the mustache named Fei.

The mustache seemed to feel that someone was watching him, and turned his head suddenly. When he saw it was Colonel Lin, he subconsciously took a few steps back.

Principal Lin, on the other hand, smiled at him to express his goodwill.

With nothing going on, Lin Xiao went directly to the wine area. The food and drinks here were rich and high-end, but there were only two or three people here, which was a rare quiet time.

Principal Lin was not polite and tasted the delicious food slowly.

"Handsome guy, you came here alone."

At this time, a beautiful woman suddenly came over to strike up a conversation.

Principal Lin didn't expect anyone to strike up a conversation here, so he couldn't help but glance at him.

The other party is wearing a long red dress, which is very cool on the front and back. She looks very beautiful, but it mainly relies on makeup. If the makeup is removed, she will look like an ordinary person.

In fact, Colonel Lin observed everyone present, especially the young men and women. It should be said that generally they were pretty good-looking and there were no ugly ones. Especially the girls, the majority were pretty.

However, under Principal Lin's clairvoyant eyes, he saw some differences. Some were naturally beautiful, some were very beautiful, some relied on makeup, and some relied on plastic surgery.

In fact, the beauty industry is very developed now. As long as you have money and know how to control your weight, almost anyone can become a beautiful woman.

However, School Lin discovered an interesting phenomenon. Those who are naturally beautiful are basically the most polite at the banquet. Their attitude is often very humble, and they often follow a young man. When someone introduces you to a toast, you will often drink it all before the other person drinks.

On the contrary, those girls with average looks often hold their heads high and have a strong aura, not inferior to the men present.

Schoolmaster Lin took a quick look and realized that those girls with mediocre looks were basically the children of the family. They were confident enough to talk and laugh even in a place where men were at home. Moreover, their makeup is very high-end. Even if their facial features are not beautiful enough, they will often have stunning effects if they are carefully dressed up.

As for those naturally beautiful beauties, most of them are the partners brought by the young master. To be attracted by men of their level, their own conditions must be excellent. School Lin even saw a few faces that are often seen in movies and TV series. . However, in this banquet, they are obviously the lowest, and their attitude is naturally humble.

And a beauty like Yuan Linglong, who is naturally beautiful and comes from a big family, is naturally a scarce resource for the banquet. It has to be said that Yuan Linglong's appearance is already at the ceiling level, and with the blessing of her identity, even if she tries her best to keep a low profile, there are many people around her.

As for the girl who was chatting with him in front of him, Principal Lin judged that she was most likely a child of the family. The reasons were very simple. First, she was not pretty enough, and second, she was confident enough.

"No, I have a companion."

Schoolmaster Lin didn't really want to talk to him.

"No way, I've been observing you for a long time and I see that you are always alone."

The other party seemed unwilling to give up.

"That Miss Yuan over there is my female companion."
