Chapter 5 Charity Party

Duan Chenqian didn't say anything later.

Si Nian lowered her head slightly, and unconsciously played with the lace protruding around the waist of the dress, as if she hadn't heard their conversation.

The two chairman of the business association are over fifty years old, and one of them has a hairstyle that is more Mediterranean. After listening to the chat between the two, his face showed an unpredictable expression and he laughed twice.

"Mr. Gu and Mr. Duan are worthy of being childhood friends, and their friendship is indeed extraordinary!"

Duan Chenqian was very popular with compliments. From childhood to adulthood, his most proud thing was that people put him and Gu Jingyun together.

The Gu Duan family had a close relationship since their ancestors, and later they developed their own careers and both made great progress.

By their generation, they became two famous families in Dongcheng.

However, the two companies do not have much connection in their businesses. Tuoyuan mainly focuses on the real estate, hotel and investment industries, while Universal mainly focuses on news and entertainment.

After chatting for a few irrelevant words, the party officially began.

The host on the stage said a very high-sounding sentence, and the organizer delivered a speech. When it was time to ask for a special guest to speak, the organizer was very attentive to invite Gu Jingyun.

However, Gu Jingyun just shook his head slightly, reached out to make an invitation gesture, and refused to speak on stage.

If Gu Jingyun didn't come on stage, naturally the others in the audience were not qualified to go over, so this link was directly skipped under the organizer's rather embarrassed expression.

The second part is the highlight, the product auction process.

A total of twelve collections participated in the auction.

Most of these auction items are raised by some well-known people, and then participate in the auction in this way, and the funds raised are used for charity.

Si Nian knows a little about such activities. These products are different from cultural relics. Most of them have only collection value and no room for added value.

In fact, this kind of activity is just a waste of money under certain guises!

The first item at the beginning of the auction was a calligraphy and painting.

This calligraphy and painting was not done by everyone, but was painted by a six-year-old child in a young man in Dongcheng. His painting skills are very simple and his skills are just simple color paintings for beginners.

But the reason why this painting was taken out is because there is a touching story in the painting.

It was a white-haired old man standing under a cane, waiting for his son who had not returned from work. What the old man didn't know was that his son had died in an accident half a year ago and would never come back.

After the auctioneer told the story with great emotion, a soft sob sounded from the audience.

Among them, women are the main ones.

"Oh? Why aren't you moved? Look at them, your eyes are swollen!" Duan Chenqian suddenly asked Si Nian.

At the beginning of the auction, Duan Chenqian moved to Gu Jingyun's left position. He looked around, especially the two ladies beside him, and then looked at Si Nian, who had been quietly sitting next to Gu Jingyun.

As soon as Duan Chenqian said this, Si Nian looked at him. She really didn't feel anything to be moved.

Sad things happen every day, this is one tragedy after another that is inevitable for social development!

Si Nian just doesn't want to indulge in other people's sorrows too much.

At this time, Gu Jingyun was lowering his head to reply to the electronic document, but his attention was quickly shifted. He turned to look at Si Nian, which happened to collide with Si Nian's eyes looking towards Duan Chenqian.

Tonight, the new female companion beside him was very quiet. She had been sitting quietly since she sat down, making him forget that this person still existed.

Si Nian's thin lips curled up slightly, as if she expected to look at Gu Jingyun, but she did not dodge. Her translucent eyes bent into a curve, which covered her emotions well.

But Gu Jingyun still noticed a trace of disdain in her eyes.
