broken dust

Chapter 7 Stolen

Five thirty in the afternoon.

Nearly [-] cars stopped at the entrance of Shidu International Hotel one after another. Men and women in fancy clothes got out of the cars one after another. The bodyguards in front opened the way, followed by assistants.

Most of them are people from the entertainment industry, and of course there are some rich and wealthy daughters.

The reporters who were stationed around rushed forward, nothing more than asking some gossip and truth-seeking lace news.

Another 10 minutes later, most of the celebrities who participated in the dinner had arrived, and there were very few reporters staying at the door.

Shen Gu is still waiting.

At this time, another car drove up, it was the car of actor Li Yanfei.

The lobby manager of the hotel hurried forward to open the car door for Li Yanfei. Li Yanfei slowly got out of the car, followed by five bodyguards who got off from the car behind.

Seeing Li Yanfei getting out of the car, the scattered reporters immediately rushed forward to take pictures from various angles.Manager Li Lian on the side was still kindly reminding: "Friends from the media, pay attention to your steps and try not to turn on the flash!"

Maybe it was because the bodyguards brought too few, or maybe the reporter who had gained nothing just now was too excited at this time. A strong male reporter rushed out of the encirclement and directly poked Li Yanfei's mouth with his microphone.

"Mr. Li Yanfei, I want to ask you a question!"

Li Yanfei stopped and motioned for him to continue speaking in a very gentlemanly manner.

"It is rumored that Miss Qiaoqiao was killed on the Internet. You have known her for many years. Have you received any definite news?"

As soon as the words fell, the noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

Li Yanfei frowned suddenly, and then immediately returned to calm, but he didn't intend to answer.

Li Lian, the agent next to him, strode forward and blocked the reporter very forcefully. Five bodyguards hugged Li Yanfei and went straight to the direct elevator in the lobby.

Li Lian said politely and humorously: "I'm sorry, when Mr. Li Yanfei and Ms. Qiao Qiao cooperated, it was at the beginning of the last century. They were usually busy with each other and rarely interacted with each other. As for the news spread on the Internet, we are also very concerned about it. , but unfortunately we are not very clear, if we get the exact news, we will let you know as soon as possible!"

After speaking, he smiled and bowed, "Everyone has worked hard today, you must give Mr. Li Yanfei a headline!"

After Yubi raised his head, he turned around and headed towards the top floor to the elevator.

The hotel security in the lobby worked together to "invite" the reporter out of the door.

The whole process is only 2 minutes, but the ups and downs are performed in these 2 minutes, which is intriguing.

Not far away, Shen Gu witnessed the whole process, leaning on the glass door frame of the cafe, squinting his eyes thoughtfully.

It was almost six o'clock, and several cars stopped at the door one after another.

Star Glimmer was long overdue.

It's a pity that Shen Gu didn't know anyone, so he had to take out his mobile phone to take pictures of the sequel.

The two on-site reporters across the door just thought he was a well-dressed plainclothes paparazzi.

Suddenly a familiar figure appeared in the camera lens of the phone.

Tall and thin, she was dressed in a simple light gray suit, which looked very "obtrusive" among the jewels.

He deliberately kept a certain distance from the people around him, and the polite gentleman stayed behind.

Everyone is in small groups, bodyguards, assistants, and friends "go together".

He was the only one, alone, walking alone.

The source should be stopped.

The navy blue pressed-edge Tuojin invitation letter in his hand passed through the lively evening, and the extravagant afterglow of the setting sun came into Shen Gu's eyes.

He really has something to hide!

This dinner is bound to have a story to tell.

He suddenly wanted to go in and have a look.

Ten minutes later, a man in a black security uniform came out of the bathroom of the kitchen and bathroom staff in the restaurant on the 10th floor of the hotel.

He was athletic, and quickly crossed the balcony on the 77th floor, turned into the stairwell from the side window, and went straight to the sunny day leading to the 78th floor on the top floor.

At this time, the reporters who had been squatting downstairs for a long time had already dispersed in twos and threes. For them, the best opportunity for interviews had already been missed. I am afraid that the security guards would escort them all the way to the end of the meeting. , can only count on asking for some news from the invited reporters in the venue.

However, there are two economic paper media reporters who are still on the front line.

They wore black T-shirts and black baseball caps, and sat on the long wooden benches not far from the cafe for pedestrians to rest. The street lights were already on, but there were a lot of mosquitoes, and the environment was not very good.

The hard work paid off, and when it was almost seven o'clock, a black SUV stopped at the entrance of the hotel.

Song Min got out of the car first, and opened the door for Shen Jihe.

Shen Jihe is wearing a dark gray plaid suit with a black satin shirt inside. The reddish-brown pocket square in the chest pocket of the suit is full and three-dimensional with polygonal folds. He wears black velvet stitching loafers on his feet.Except for the classic rose gold ring diamond watch on his hands and the silk square scarf on his chest, he has no decorations on his body, not even a tie.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Shen Jihe's trip is a low-key trip that doesn't want to be disturbed.

As soon as he landed on his front foot, the manager of the dark field and the general manager of the hotel rushed up to him: "I just received the notice that Mr. Shen is coming, so I'm far away to welcome you!"

Shen Jihe nodded slightly: "It was my impromptu idea. I came late and interrupted."

The two respectfully led Shen Jihe in, and Song Min subconsciously looked around.

One of them said hurriedly, "Mr. Shen, don't worry, it's all over now. Those gossip reporters have already left. I know you keep a low profile. We just cleared up the situation..."

Before the words were finished, two reporters suddenly rushed from the opposite cafe with their cameras on their shoulders, wearing black clothes and hats like bats that had been lurking in the dark for a long time.

Song Min stretched out her hand and quickly stopped her.

The faces of the two managers turned pale instantly.

Face slapping on the spot is indeed a bit ugly.

Shen Jihe turned around slowly, showing an extremely polite gentleman's smile, without looking sideways, but tapped Song Min's arm twice with his left hand.

Song Min withdrew her hands and stood aside, standing upright.

"Mr. Shen, I heard that you presided over the joint meeting of the United Chamber of Commerce today. Why didn't Chairman Shen attend?"

"Mr. Shen, is there any major project planned for this joint meeting of the chamber of commerce, can you tell us something?"

After they finished speaking in turn, Shen Jihe replied unhurriedly: "Thank you for your concern. Ji He knows that he is still young, and he is afraid of making any mistakes. After the meeting, all the materials related to the meeting have been handed over to my father for review, and My father and I have already discussed the discussion content of this meeting in advance, and only dare to bring it up at the meeting after making sure it is correct, so... thank you again for your concern!"

Modest and courteous but answered irrelevant questions.

"The current overall economic status of the chamber of commerce is developing steadily as in previous years, and we are also trying to seek changes in a stable state. In the rhythm of keeping pace with the times, how to be 'conservative' and boldly 'advance' is our current discussion point. So if There are new projects coming out, everyone can stay tuned!"

Even though he made a side attack, he also played "good Tai Chi".

The two reporters came prepared, how could they let it go.

Just as she was about to exert her strength, Song Min stopped her with one hand:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen still has something important to do, next time we will definitely set aside time for everyone to sit down and talk slowly!"

The two managers of the hotel had been watching from the sidelines for a long time, and when they saw this, they quickly waved, and the security guards in the lobby quickly stopped them outside the door.

Song Min led the way and went straight to the elevator.

Shen Jihe walked in a hurry, and said while walking: "The action is really fast, this is clearly a warning."

Song Min pressed the elevator for Shen Jihe, and suggested: "Should we arrange to check the secretariat to see who it is?"

Shen Jihe sneered, he already knew right from wrong in his heart: "No need to check, these two media have had a face-to-face meeting three years ago!"

Song Min showed surprise: "That's Secretary Li, she joined the company in the same year as you."

Shen Jihe didn't deny it.

Song Min was puzzled: "Then why..."

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never end in a hundred battles. Those old foxes have set up troops to keep an eye on me since they started taking over the family's business, but it's okay, we are in the light, they are in the dark, and there are such dedicated wind detectors by their side. If you want to know any kind of news, we can send it directly to him... You don't have to pretend to pay attention, so as not to startle the snake!"

"Ding!" The elevator door opened, and Shen Jihe calmly straightened his collar and walked out.

Song Min said softly "yes" behind her, and then followed.

As soon as Shen Jihe entered the door, he was greeted by two service staff in vest, shirt and black trousers, leading him directly to the VIP seat.However, he did not take a seat at the VIP seat, but sat quietly at the last row of tables.

And Song Min had already received the "secret order" and went backstage.

At this time, two treasures have been sold, and there are still three that have not been sold.

They are: imperial Chengni Tiger Fu inkstone, a pair of double-eared jade vases, and enamel color inlaid gemstone jewelry box

However, there was a sudden change at the auction site, and the auctioneer received a notice from the sponsor and the consignor that the auction was canceled for the last lot.

There was mourning at the scene.

Little did they know that several rich wives and rich daughters came here just for this collection of jewelry boxes.

Fu Yumian was no exception. She deliberately found a good position in the center of the front row to observe her favorite auction items at a closer distance.

When this happened, she immediately sent someone to the backstage to inquire about the situation.

"Did you ask? What's going on?"

"I asked." The housekeeper whispered in her ear, "It is said that an entrepreneur directly bought it from the client at a high price, so the client stopped the auction."

"Bought directly?"

"Well, it is said that it was bought at a price 20 times higher than the commodity!"

"20 times?" Fu Yumian was in disbelief.

Although she likes it, and she came here specially for this favorite item, but if she wants to spend twenty times the price for something that is far beyond her budget, she still has to hesitate.

In the eyes of her parents, she has always been sensible, obedient, and general.

"Have you found out who bought it?" she asked.

The housekeeper looked troubled.

"Say it!"

"This, I can't find out."

She felt a little frustrated, whether it was because she was frustrated that she didn't get what she wanted, or because she didn't find out who bought it.

I have been tangled in my heart, and I have no psychological understanding of the subsequent auctions, and I seem to be absent-minded.

After sitting there for five or six minutes, he felt that the scene was dead silent and lifeless, so he straightened the delicate bow on the waist of the little black dress on his body.Looking in the mirror, heh, her hairstyle is not messed up at all, her makeup is exquisite, and she is not inferior to the beautiful female stars around her.Then she picked up the small black sequined handbag on the stool and prepared to leave.

She tried her best to be elegant and calm, and when she was about to walk out of the auction area, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm halfway. The incident happened suddenly, and she was so frightened that she froze on the spot.

No strange man had ever been so rude to her.

The housekeeper was walking in front, and suddenly found that the sound of high heels behind her stopped, and hurriedly looked back.

All they saw was an impolite man with his back turned to them, with one hand outstretched, pretending to be a hindrance.

She walked over quickly, and was about to scold, when she heard a clear and crisp voice: "Who is it that made our Miss Fu unhappy?"

The voice was familiar, Fu Yumian quickly turned around, both happy and surprised: "Second brother! Why are you here?"

"Second Brother" is sweet and sweet.

The two were originally the same age, and Shen Jihe was only three months older than her.

"Hush", Shen Jihe put his index finger to his mouth, motioning for her to speak softly.

She understood immediately, and gestured to the housekeeper that she could do as she please, and then obediently sat in the empty seat next to Shen Jihe.

A collection was being photographed on the stage, and everyone was hanging, no one noticed what would happen behind the large empty seats.

Shen Jihe patted her on the shoulder, and hooked his fingers at her, as if to whisper.

She tilted her head to the right.

"My brother bought that jewelry box."

"Is that the one that was supposed to be filmed today?"

"Um"

She felt a burst of joy, looked around and asked: "Brother Shen is here too?"

Shen Jihe nodded: "Here we are"

Then he patted her on the shoulder and reminded: "Don't look around, he usually doesn't like to appear on such occasions, and you can't find it."

She thought to herself, it is indeed like Shen Gu's personality.

"No wonder I sent someone to inquire and couldn't find out!" She felt happy in her heart, and the previous depression and regret disappeared immediately, and suddenly she changed her mind, and her heart was twisted: "Brother Shen, why did you buy this girl's stuff at such a high price?"

Seeing her frowning with jealousy, Shen Jihe smiled instead: "Don't worry, this is for you!"

She couldn't believe it: "Really?"

"real!"

Fearing that she wouldn't believe it, Shen Jihe specially asked Song Min to take a photo.

Song Min just created a new photo album in her mobile phone, and there are more than a dozen close-up pictures in it.

The enamel-inlaid gemstone jewelry box is plum-shaped, enamel-inlaid, and the crochet is vivid and exquisite. It is embellished with blue, turquoise and bright ruby. It is gorgeous, exquisite and exquisite.

Shen Jihe pointed at the photo and said softly, "Is this the letter?"

Fu Yumian nodded, her brows were beaming with joy, with a little girl's pride and satisfaction.

Shen Jihe was very satisfied with her reaction, she did what she liked, and cast accurately, everyone was happy.

At this time, the auction is coming to an end, except for the jewelry box that was sold privately, the remaining four items: Yaobian Tianmu tea bowl, blue and white dragon pattern plum vase, imperial Chengni tiger inkstone, and a pair of double-eared jade vases have been successfully auctioned. out.

The most important part of this banquet has been completed, and the rest is nothing more than greeting each other, flattering, dancing, and eating in the social arena.

Before that, there is another link. Including the enamel-inlaid gemstone jewelry box, the five collections will be taken out again, and they will be photographed together as a souvenir.

Originally, Shen Jihe's enamel-colored and gemstone-studded jewelry box did not need to take a group photo, but because many wealthy wives present came for this collection, the original owner of the collection was out of vanity and insisted on asking for a group photo together, Shen Jihe did not shirk.

Of course he has his own considerations.

First, he could have taken the photo in public, and I believe no one here will bid higher than him, but if she can be asked without disappointing her, and then give her a surprise, I believe she will be happier.

Easy access is definitely not as memorable as twists and turns to create surprises.

Second, everyone can't get it, but she gets it. This is what makes people's vanity swell. If it is known to everyone, but everyone can only look at it with admiration, then it will definitely satisfy her vanity to the extreme .

Thirdly, I'm afraid she would be happier if it was given in the name of Shen Gu.

In this way, of course he will not shirk the proposal for a group photo.

However, he naturally wouldn't go up to take a group photo. The main character is Fu Yumian, so don't overwhelm the host.

At this time, the auctioneer left the stage, and the master of ceremonies of the banquet said the warm words of "the flowers are beautiful and the moon is full", and the lighting engineer also cooperated extremely.

After finishing speaking, the lights in the venue were bright, like a huge magnifying glass, magnifying beauty, luxury, brilliance, elegance, wealth and wealth in Vanity Fair infinitely.

Everyone is arranging their clothes, and after the five collections are launched, they can go up and take a group photo.

Competing for splendor or a hundred flowers blooming, in short, it is beautiful.

However, the master of ceremonies came to the stage again, and he said loudly, "Thank you all distinguished guests for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend this dinner, and now we have invited Mr. Zheng from the organizer Sunny Time to give a speech."

The voice is pretending to be calm, but everyone can see the panic in his heart.

Just now, Sunny Time's dark field planner came to him, and when he came on stage again, his hand holding the microphone was shaking all the time.

Mr. Zheng on the stage said some official words of thanks, and 5 minutes later he began to talk about his entrepreneurial history inexplicably.

Gradually shift the subject.

Shen Jihe felt irritable, turned his head and looked carefully at the entrance and exit gates, and seemed to hear the sound of "crowds of people".

It was getting closer and closer, and gradually the guests began to notice it.

Song Min strode to the backstage to inquire, but was stopped by the organizer's account manager before she was halfway there.

The man didn't say a word to him, but pushed him to plead guilty in front of Shen Jihe in a panic.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, the enamel-inlaid gemstone jewelry box has been stolen!"

"what!"

Fu Yumian woke up from the seat, and the housekeeper covered her face and coughed lightly. She immediately realized that she had lost her composure, sat down slowly, and turned her head to look at the biggest loser, Shen Jihe.

Shen Jihe didn't say a word, and gracefully got up and buttoned the unbuttoned suit one by one, without rushing.

"Don't worry, the whole building has been sealed off. I believe the thieves must still be in the building."

"I see."

There is no joy or anger in the four words.

After finishing speaking, the "crowd" just now had entered the lobby, and they were the security team of Shidu International Hotel.

Well-trained and uniformly surrounded the entire hall.

I don't know who leaked the news about the thieves. The scene was suspicious, terrified, looked at each other, exclaimed everywhere, and became a mess.

"What should I do, second brother?" Fu Yumian was burning with anxiety.

Shen Jihe turned around, patted her on the head lightly, and comforted her:

"It's okay, what was lost is ours, we are the victims... you go first."

Immediately, calmly sent Song Min with five or six security guards to send her and the housekeeper away first.

"Mr. Shen, the thieves may be on the scene." The hotel's account manager reminded him intentionally.

He turned his face and asked, "You mean Miss Fu is a thief?"

The voice was icy cold, like a big net with ice picks on it, and people dare not breathe.

The man didn't dare to speak anymore, and let Song Min help Fu Yumian to go out.

If one person enjoys the special case, it will naturally lead to resentment, and the scene will become more chaotic. The security personnel persuaded them to no avail and suppressed them by force. The result is a vicious circle, the scene is more restless, and there are also pushing and pulling behaviors.

In the confusion, Shen Jihe was pushed forcibly by someone, and accidentally bumped into the long dining table prepared for the dinner in the VIP area, and the tall "red wine tower" suddenly fell down. The lower bag of the tablecloth was swept up, the glass did not roll off the table, it was intact, but a large piece of red wine spilled all over him.

He took out the reddish-brown silk square scarf on the chest of the suit, pressed it on his body and wiped it. Because he hid in time, the front of the shirt was fine, but the right side of the suit and his right arm were soaked with a large amount of wine stains, which was very sticky. Good clean up.

He had to take off his suit.

"Boss Shen"

A deep voice came from behind.

A hand spontaneously "skimmed" the dark gray plaid suit he took off.

He turned around quickly alertly, but he didn't expect a black suit with dark patterns to stand in front of his eyes.

"you!"

He wanted to shout angrily, the suit in front of him slowly fell down, and when he saw the person coming, he was shocked.

But when he noticed the eager eyes and slightly wrinkled eyebrows on the other person's face, he immediately and calmly took the black dark pattern suit and put it on.

The chief person in charge of Shidu International Hotel finally showed up, and brought a team of security guards in a hurry. Before they arrived, Shen Jihe's mouthful of "deserving death" had already reached his ears.

Hearing the sound, Shen Jihe quickly turned around and stood in front of the man, watching the person in charge of the hotel without saying a word, without showing any anger.

This is the worst emergency management team he has ever seen.

The person in charge of the hotel was pale, with a lump in his throat and sweat profusely.

How to say?say what?It's all wrong!

He didn't say anything, but Shen Jihe said firmly:

"I just look at the results."

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, he just wanted to send the "King of Hades" away first, to survive for a while, and then he tried his best to hand over the matter to the police.

After thinking about this, he immediately waved his hand, and a team of security guards spread out to both sides, opening a passage.When Shen Jihe walked into the passage, the team immediately surrounded him and escorted him away safely.

In Haohao Tangtang's team, a "redundant" security guard got mixed in. He held the suit that Shen Jihe had replaced with one hand, and spared no effort to open the way for Shen Jihe with the other hand.

However, no one found out.
