As the saying goes, once you enter the world, you have no choice.

No matter how much you want to keep a low profile, as long as you still follow the rules of the game, you will not be able to really do what you want.

Seeing the media hyping up this dinner as a "Haicheng event", Lu Qing couldn't help but feel anxious.

A charity project that has just been established and doesn't even have a single successful case has become so popular.

After having lunch with colleagues, Dai Xinxin urged Lu Qing to do her makeup.

Dai Xinxin had already hired a makeup artist and booked several rooms in Binhai as guest lounges.

Lu Qing had chosen a low-key and unpretentious dress early in the morning.

Ding Yingzhen and Dai Xinxin bet that the dress would be either black, white, or gray, and would not be any other than these three colors.

Dai Xinxin smiled and said, "You are wrong, there is also beige color available."

They went to put on makeup and saw Lu Qing's dress hanging there. It was indeed a gray gauze dress. The two smiled at each other.

Lu Qing grumbled as she changed her clothes, "You don't have to be happy. Now you despise my plain clothes. One day, when my genes awaken and I wear bright red and green and appear on the news, let's see if you will be embarrassed along with me."

Ding Yingzhen and Dai Xinxin's dresses were both selected from sponsored brands, with simple styles and high-quality textures.

Ding Yingzhen is tall and slender, so she chose a lavender satin fishtail dress. Dai Xinxin will be giving a speech tonight, so she chose a dignified black dress. Lu Qing had seen both of these dresses in advance.

After the two of them were dressed up, Lu Qing gave them gifts.

Ding Yingzhen's gift box contained a lavender pearl necklace, which was of excellent quality and perfectly matched with the satin dress; Dai Xinxin's gift was a diamond bracelet.

"Xinxin, the tailoring of your dress is the highlight. If you pair it with a necklace, it will ruin your neck line, so I chose a bracelet for you. Yingzhen, your dress and this necklace are cut from the same color palette. As soon as I saw the picture you sent me, I thought of this necklace. It's made in Tahiti, and I picked it myself when I went on a trip."

Even though Ding Dai and the other girl are indifferent to fame and fortune, they are still girls at heart. Of course they are very happy to see the sparkling jewelry.

Ding Yingzhen guessed that Lu Qing wanted to give the jewelry to the two of them, and deliberately said, "Boss Lin, we will wear it with care, and we will return it to you after the ceremony."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "Don't try to play tricks on me. I took it out of course to give it to you. If I really took it back, you would definitely call me stingy behind my back."

Soon the makeup artist came and did makeup for the three girls.

After dressing up, the three of them looked at each other with an expression of "Is this still you?" on their faces. The three of them agreed to learn how to put on makeup after they were done with this.

Lu Qing was worried about her husband, so she called Fu's house to ask about Fu Daishi and Fu Yanheng's condition. She learned that Fu Yanheng was still lying in bed, groaning, "Ah~, I'm sick! Wife, where are you?"

"I'm at the Marina Hotel. Are you still feverish?"

"I don't know either. Anyway, I still feel uncomfortable."

Lu Qing knew he just had a cold, "Don't complain, the doctor has already seen you, if there was something wrong he would have sent you to the hospital a long time ago. Didn't you go to see Dad?"

Fu Yanheng's voice was as helpless as a kitten. "I can't even get up, how can I go and see. Please come back soon, I need you to accompany me."

Lu Qing was so angry on the phone that she wanted to laugh.

There was a knock on the door. It was Huang Dong who came to deliver the boiled Chinese medicine. "Master, the Chinese medicine is ready. Please drink it while it's hot."

Fu Yanheng couldn't act coquettishly over the phone anymore, so he cleared his throat and said, "Okay, put it on the table, I'll drink it in a while. Honey, I'm fine here, my fever has gone down, you just focus on your things. I'm very sorry that I can't go tonight."

"That's nothing. We're running out of room here. Give the phone to Huang Dong."

Huang Dong took it over, "Sister Lu Qing?"

"How is the master?"

"It's okay, sister. The doctor is here all the time. He didn't go back to the hospital until the master's fever subsided and he fell asleep. Someone was sent to check on him in the afternoon. Nothing is wrong. The eldest master's fever subsided just half an hour after you left, but he still feels dizzy. The doctor told him to stay in bed and prescribed a Chinese medicine prescription."

"Okay, don't worry about anything else now, let your sisters do it, just change your clothes and come over. Dahai is walking home, and it will be there in about half an hour, just change your clothes, there is a makeup teacher here. Also, the mistress has to stay at home to take care of the master, you can come over by yourself."

Of course Huang Dong wanted to go. He couldn't wait to say hello and leave after hanging up the phone.

Fu Yanheng shouted from behind, enduring the pain in his throat, "My phone!"

This is Huang Dong's first time attending such a formal occasion.

As soon as you get off the car, you'll see the red carpet. Although the show hasn't officially started yet, the red carpet security is already in place.

Huang Dong walked on the red carpet, surrounded by the media who had arrived in advance and were stationed in position. There were flash cameras flashing from time to time. He felt like he was in a whole new world.

Dahai took her to a room on the fifth floor to put on makeup. Huang Dong felt relieved when he saw Lu Qing was there.

Seeing that Huang Dong chose a very low-key Chinese-style dress, Lu Qing asked the hairstylist to help her make a Chinese-style bun.

Everyone was waiting for the time to arrive and see the guests.

At this time, Xinxin received a phone call, and she seemed a little unhappy.

After hanging up the phone, he reported to Lu Qing, "There was a little star who wanted to come over after seeing the report. She contacted our public relations department and insisted on a good seat. The public relations department explained to her that she couldn't be added at short notice, and she started to curse."

Lu Qing asked who it was, and Dai Xinxin found a photo on the Internet to show everyone.

Everyone looked confused and said they had never seen or recognized him, nor had they ever heard of his name.

"It's rare that she cares about our fledgling fund. Ask the PR to tell her that the guests sitting in the front row are all guests who have signed the donation form, and hint that the starting point is 50. See what she says."

"What if she gave it to me?"

"That's great, I'll give her my seat, I'd rather stand behind the scenes."

Dai Xinxin smiled and went to deal with it.

After a while, she came back and said, "When she heard the price, she immediately remembered that she had a banquet in the evening and she would not give us this honor."

Everyone just laughed it off.

The time is almost up, the guests have arrived one after another, and everyone goes downstairs to welcome them.

The order in which the guests arrive is also strict. Those with lower status will generally arrive earlier, while those with higher status will tend to arrive later.

A special courtesy car was used to take them to the red carpet, where everyone got off to sign autographs, take photos, and some even said a few words to the media on site.

According to convention, Lu Qing would usually come out to greet them at the end, but she arrived at the hotel entrance, at the end of the red carpet, first.

"Every guest who comes here gives me face. It's never wrong to treat people with sincerity."

Dai Xinxin stood beside her, and if there was anything Lu Qing was not familiar with, she would give her some pointers.
