The next day, Xu Rui happily went to the charity dinner with Cheng Li.
Not long after the dinner started, a crane brooch from Cheng Li was auctioned off at a price of 100 million to [-].
Encrusted with diamonds and embellished with rubellite and black tourmalines, this brooch is vivid and otherworldly in shape, featuring a crane that appears to be alive and ready to fly.
While the person who photographed it attracted the attention of the guests, Cheng Li, as its designer, Cheng's second son and the new creative director of C&B Jewelry, also became the focus of discussion.
From time to time, the word "process" rang in his ears, but as his male companion, Xu Rui sat beside him calmly and watched the excitement.
What he said to Yong Mingxuan at the party to show off his wealth before was true.
He invested all the pocket money of the original owner's card in a movie to be filmed. The movie has not yet been released, and he has not received any dividends, so he is very poor now. He can only admire the items displayed at the auction, and cannot be tempted , and have no ability to do charity.
Speaking of this investment, the person who took the lead was the second generation ancestor who ate cake at the engagement banquet.
The second ancestor's name is Xing Feng, and his family runs a film and television company.In the eyes of outsiders, his image is that of a romantic prince with handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, but he is actually one of the few serious friends of the original owner-although this seriousness is relatively speaking.
When Xu Rui was autistic at Cheng Li's home, Xing Feng sent him two movie scripts that were looking for investors to relieve his boredom. It appeared in Ren Fan: Go Go Fingers Playing with the Five Heirs of the Rich Family. The author mentioned it at the time, saying that the filming cost of it was only 8 million yuan, but the cumulative box office reached 38 billion in the end, making the producer a lot of money.
With an attitude of learning, Xu Rui read the entire script.
The moment he turned to the last page, Xu Rui sighed in admiration, this story is really well written.
The plot setting makes people laugh out loud, and the development of the plot is unexpected everywhere. It not only conforms to the joyful atmosphere during the Spring Festival, but also makes every audience curious about the ending of the protagonist, and they can't wait to see the end.
It's no wonder that movies based on scripts will break out of the siege among all kinds of fairy works and become the dark horses of this year's Lunar New Year.
He really wanted to give this screenwriter a big heart!
Out of curiosity, Xu Rui asked Xing Feng about the film and learned that the director was already in place, but there was still a big gap in the filming funds.
So, he patted the table and decided to invest eight figures...
At this moment, at the charity dinner, even though he knew that he would definitely be able to make money with this investment, Xu Rui's heart was still full of vicissitudes.
Some people look glamorous on the surface and are ostentatious second-generation ancestors, but their actual savings are only five figures, which is very pitiful...
Thinking of this, he sighed sadly.
Beside him, Cheng Li, who had been focusing on the auction items, turned his head and asked strangely, "What's wrong?"
"Since you're here, why don't you take some symbolic photos?"
Xu Rui: As expected of a person with the attribute of a poisonous tongue, he is really sharp enough.
He pulled out a smirk and replied in a low voice, "No, I didn't see anything I particularly liked."
Cheng Li sneered, and continued to watch the auction, but asked sarcastically, "Did you squander the pocket money your father gave you?"
"I haven't seen you go out recently?"
Xu Rui: ...
In a sense, that's true...
So he responded awkwardly: "Yeah."
"It was resolved by express delivery."
Cheng Li ignored him coldly.
Halfway through the auction, Cheng Li's designs appeared on the big screen again, and once again attracted the attention of everyone present.
This is a set of beautiful aquamarine jewellery, including necklaces, earrings, rings and bracelets. The overall style is gorgeous and noble, with a hint of calmness in its purity, just like its name - Siren.
After several rounds of bidding, this set of jewelry was bought by a rich man at a price of 400 million and was given to his wife on the spot, earning a lot of attention.
Cheng Li, who has both appearance, talent and wealth, has once again become the gossip target of all the unmarried women.
Xu Rui listened beside him, and sighed intentionally or unintentionally: "Oh, some people are really high-profile, and they never forget to show their affection wherever they go."
"I'm different, hehe."
"Fame and status are just floating clouds to me."
Cheng Li gave him a cold look, lowered his voice and satirized him: "Otherwise? Do you think there is anything else between us?"
"Of course it exists!" Xu Rui disagreed with him, and stretched out his index finger to gesture back and forth between the two, "You and I, at least there is a socialist brotherhood between us!"
Cheng Li had an extremely speechless expression on his face.
Xu Rui could see that the reason why he didn't roll his eyes at him or turn his face on the spot was all due to the good education he received since he was a child...
The auction came to an end amidst the bickering between the two. Cheng Li, as the most prominent client tonight, came to the stage and promised to donate all the after-tax proceeds of the auction to the organizer's charitable foundation to help people living in impoverished mountainous areas. out-of-school children.
When the host excitedly announced this decision, Cheng Li thought for a while, and then added in a serious manner: "In the name of me and my fiancé—Mr. Xu."
The word 'fiancé' sounds very intimate. Xu Rui, who was playing with his mobile phone in the audience, suddenly petrified when he heard himself being mentioned suddenly.
He put down his mobile phone and looked towards the reception desk, with a polite smile on his face, but he was actually very flustered inside, and wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.
Because, he felt the murderous knives thrown by the women around him and the male compatriots who were interested in Cheng Li...
Don't look, I have no real relationship with this person!
Xu Rui shouted in his heart, defending himself, looking at Cheng Li's smug eyes on the stage, thinking sadly and angrily: What does it mean to shoot yourself in the foot with a rock?
This is live teaching!
The charity auction ended, and Xu Rui, who had received countless eyes and prying eyes, followed Cheng Li out of the hotel unhappy.
Outside, in the evening, the sky was still endlessly blue, but at this moment it has been replaced by a thick black color.
The expected rain did not fall for a long time, so the air was humid and dull, which made people feel irritable for no reason.
When the two got into the car, Xu Rui found that Cheng Li, who had been in a good mood tonight, frowned.
The car started and drove towards the villa. Cheng Li began to lean on the back of the chair, close his eyes and meditate, rubbing his temples with his hands, as if he was enduring physical discomfort.
His face was a little pale, and the pride that he usually resists from others has weakened a lot, and his temperament has become very erratic.
Xu Rui didn't know what happened, he forgot the previous unhappiness, and leaned over to ask him with concern: "Are you okay?"
After a while, Cheng Li replied in a low voice, "En."
When Xu Rui got the response, he felt relieved, sat back in his original position, and kept an eye on his situation.
Half an hour later, the car finally drove into the garage of the villa yard. Xu Rui worriedly touched Cheng Lifan's cold hand and asked him, "Can you get out of the car by yourself?"
The corners of Cheng Li's lips curled up, he put down his hand that had been covering his eyes, turned to look at him, and said with piercing eyes, "Yes."
Xu Rui was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Okay?"
Cheng Li was looking out of the car, as if looking for something in the garage, when he heard his question, he replied casually: "I'm fine."
Xu Rui noticed the excitement in him that couldn't be concealed. He felt that this excitement seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while. He could only search in his mind while observing Cheng Li who had become different.
Beside, Cheng Li should have found what he was looking for, and his beautiful eyes lit up.
Then he frowned in difficulty again, lost in thought.
After a while, he turned his head to show Xu Rui a clean and harmless smile, and said in an extremely gentle tone, "Will you wait for me in front of that sports car?"
"The weather is so stuffy, I want to go out for a drive."
"You go with me, I'll go back to my room and change my clothes first."
Xu Rui looked in the direction of his fingers, saw an extremely cool sports car, and couldn't help but admire: "It's so beautiful!"
He perfectly missed the secret smile of Cheng Li's scheme, threw all his doubts to the sky, and nodded happily: "Okay, okay!"
Unexpectedly, Cheng Li suddenly became enlightened after he came out of the hotel.
This time they will be able to cultivate a tacit understanding and become better and better brothers!
Xu Rui agreed, and Cheng Li was also very happy. After leaving for a while, he returned to the garage, took out a bunch of car keys and opened the sports car.
He changed the well-pressed suit at the dinner party into a black shirt and black trousers. His long hair was combed casually behind his head, revealing a black diamond skull earring on his right ear.
Xu Rui thought it was the unique fashion taste of Chengda designer at night, and got into the co-pilot of the car under his warm greeting.
Then, he was surprised to find that this car had been modified!
The next second, the sound of the car door being locked, Cheng Li leaned over, without saying a word, and put on his seat belt thoughtfully.
Xu Rui forgot how to breathe the moment he approached, and there were only two big words left in his heart: Fuck!
The atmosphere in the car was a little scary.
Xu Rui clutched the black belt on his chest, looked at the people beside him defensively, and said with certainty: "You are not Cheng Li!"
Then he tentatively asked: "Are you Lu Xun?"
Lu Xun, who was sitting in the driver's seat, fastened his seat belt calmly, looked ahead, stepped on the accelerator, and said nonchalantly, "I thought you would recognize me earlier!"
"Long time no see, this is not Xu Rui's classmate Xu Rui!"
Accompanied by a roar, the sports car drove out of the garage, passed through the quiet tree-lined road, turned a corner, and entered the motorway not far away at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing that Lu Xun ran through two red lights in a row without slowing down at all, Xu Rui's scalp went numb, and he gripped the handrail in the car in fear.
"Can we drive slower?" He called Lu Xun nervously, "You just violated the traffic rules, and you will be fined points and fines, and this car is so conspicuous, it will be on the social news."
"The most important thing," Xu Rui swallowed and said loudly, "We are in danger now!"
Lu Xun didn't take his words to heart at all, stepped up the accelerator, and glanced at him during the process, with a happy and satisfied smirk on his face.
"Is it exciting?" he asked, "Is it more interesting to be with me than with that boring guy Cheng Li?"
"Hahaha!"
Not long after the dinner started, a crane brooch from Cheng Li was auctioned off at a price of 100 million to [-].
Encrusted with diamonds and embellished with rubellite and black tourmalines, this brooch is vivid and otherworldly in shape, featuring a crane that appears to be alive and ready to fly.
