Chapter 44 Li Yunyun

Back in the hall, Lei Yunrong came to Lei Juehua's side.

Lei Yunrong found that there were already dozens of people in Lijia Hall, but the hall was big enough and did not seem crowded at all.

Lei Yunrong also saw many people he knew.

Like Huo Yingdong and Mr. Huo, Huo Zhenting is standing next to him now, with a slim figure but a tall and straight posture, and a pair of bright eyes.

There is also Heung Kong Financial Secretary Xia Dingji. As a company leader, Lei Yunrong will definitely pay attention to financial news. He often appears on TV and newspapers.

Lei Yunrong also met Dr. Li Zhuomin, the president of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. As an outstanding student at the time, Lei Yunrong also met President Li several times.

Moreover, Lei Yunrong also saw Shen Bi, a ghost guy. He didn't know why HSBC's senior manager didn't come over but he did.

From this, we can see the profound heritage of the Li family. They talk and laugh with great scholars and have no idle contacts.

Not only that, through Lei Juehua's introduction, Lei Yunrong learned that even the president of Xinhua News Agency's Xiangjiang Branch was here, which surprised him a little. He didn't expect that the Li family would have contact with the mainland so early.

In fact, Lei Yunrong was the one who got the wrong idea. He always thought that the mainland had very little communication with the outside world before the reform in 1978.

In fact, mainland China has always had frequent exchanges with the outside world, especially Hong Kong, which is even more closely connected.

In 1949, the reason why our party resisted not directly retaking Xiangjiang was to leave a window for communication with the outside world.

Moreover, the Lee family had already started to have contact with mainland China in the late 1960s.

As one of the four major families in the colonial era of Hong Kong, the Lee Family has extensive investments in real estate, trade, textiles, tourism, hotels, shipping, banking, petroleum, electronics and other industries, and often serves as a bridge for doing business in the mainland.

So it’s not surprising that the president of Xinhua News Agency’s Xiangjiang Branch came to celebrate his birthday.

As today's protagonist, Mr. Lizeming seems to be in a very good mood and his smile never breaks.

Li Zeming also thanked him specifically according to the procedure and expressed some emotions. After that, Li Zeming's children went up to congratulate him on his birthday.

Li Zeming has two sons and three daughters. The eldest son Li Zhizhong and the second son Li Zhihua have met before. This is the first time for the eldest daughter Li Yunrong, the second daughter Li Yunhui and their husband Lei Yunrong to meet.

But what makes Lei Yunrong curious the most is his youngest daughter Li Yunyun.

After the previous ones had celebrated their birthdays one by one, Li Yunyun finally appeared in Lei Yunrong's expectant eyes.

She walked forward slowly, as light as a butterfly.

I saw that she was wearing a white evening dress. The silk skirt gently wrapped her slender body, flowing from her body to the floor like water waves. The tube top skirt was made of tiny pearls. A small beaded flower is scattered on the skirt, elegant and noble.

In the hall, the men were all wearing dark dresses, and most of the women were wearing red, green, blue, and red. Only she was dressed in pure white, as clean as an angel.

To be honest, Lei Yunrong was really moved.

Lei Yunrong's eyes kept following her, and he saw her walking up to Li Zeming and saying:

"Dad, this is an oil painting I painted for you and your mother. I wish you and your mother good health and a long life!"

Li Zeming looked at Li Yunyun with loving eyes and said happily:

"Okay, good girl, you are serious. Daddy likes it very much."

"Thank you dad!"

After that, Li Zeming accepted congratulations from some other juniors of the Li family and the banquet began.

The banquet is a self-service type, which is more convenient for everyone to communicate. In fact, with so many big bosses coming over, it is not an opportunity for communication and cooperation.

Therefore, invitations to Lizeming’s banquet are hard to come by, and many people want to attend but are unable to get in.

However, the main purpose of Lei Yunrong's visit this time was not to find opportunities to cooperate, so he kept a calm mind and followed Lei Juehua to get to know some elders.

After going around in a circle, Lei Yunrong started to act independently. First he went to say hello to Principal Li, and then he also chatted with Shen Bi for a while.

Although Shen Bi, a ghost guy, is not yet Taipan, he has many people surrounding him because of the HSBC brand.

However, Lei Yunrong didn't wait long before he was called over by Lei Juehua.

Lei Yunrong followed Lei Juehua to a side hall and saw Li Zeming and his little daughter Li Yunyun there.

Lei Yunrong couldn't help but look twice, but out of politeness, Lei Yunrong quickly looked away.

This is what Lizeming said first:

"Lao Lei, Rong Zai, you didn't provide good hospitality. There are too many guests today."

"How can you not serve so much wine and food here? Besides, you are the host today and there are so many guests to greet."

Lei Yunrong also noticed that Li Zeming seemed to be greeting him in this way, and his face was indeed a little tired. After all, he was an old man in his seventies.

"With our relationship, we don't have to worry about it so much. Let me introduce it to you. This is my youngest daughter Yun Yun. She just graduated from a Canadian university this year."

After speaking, Li Zeming turned to Li Yunyun and said:

"Good girl, this is your Uncle Lei, and the person next to you is his young master Lei Yunrong. We are the same age as you and you can communicate more."

Li Yunyun was also very polite and stood up immediately to say hello:

"Hello, Uncle Lei, hello, Brother Rong."

"Okay, I didn't expect you to have such a beautiful daughter, Brother Li."

"Lao Lei, with my talents, which daughter I gave birth to would not be beautiful?"

"Haha, yes, it was a slip of the tongue. All the daughters you gave birth to are beautiful, but your little one is especially beautiful."

"Thank you Uncle Lei for the compliment."

Li Zeming laughed when he heard Lei Juehua's words and said:

"We two old guys don't want to be an eyesore here. Let them young people talk. Let's go and find Lao Hu and the others."

After saying that, Li Zeming and Lei Juehua went out, leaving only Lei Juekun and Li Yunyun. This made Lei Yunrong a little nervous, so he could only introduce himself again:

"Hello, my name is Lei Yunrong. Nice to meet you."

Seeing Lei Yunrong looking a little embarrassed, Li Yunyun burst into laughter and said:

"Hello, my name is Li Yunyun, nice to meet you too."

Of course, Li Yunyun also knew the purpose of his father bringing her here. When he first returned to Xiangjiang, his father began to mention Lei Yunrong.

After hearing what his father said about Lei Yunrong, Li Yunyun really felt that he was young and promising, so he became a little curious. In addition, his father was quite satisfied with him, so he agreed to meet him today.

I originally thought that Lei Yunrong would be a relatively mature person when he was successful in the shopping mall, but I didn't expect that he looked very green today, like a newly graduated college student.

Due to Li Yunyun's beauty, many boys have been courteous to him since middle school, and most of them are eloquent. A shy one like Lei Yunrong makes Li Yunyun a bit fresh.

At this time, Lei Yunrong could look at Li Yunyun at close range and openly.

He has an oval face, slender eyebrows, and a skin as bright as snow. His eyes are like a pool of clear water, and there is a faint air of book between his eyebrows. There is a small mouth under the bridge of the small nose, with thin lips and corners of the mouth.

Slightly raised, with a slight smile. The whole face is delicate and beautiful, so refined, without a trace of human smoke, like a budding hibiscus, spotless.

This made it difficult for Lei Yunrong to take his eyes away from his face.

"Does it look good?"

"nice!"

After saying this, Lei Yunrong realized that it was a bit rude and said quickly:

"Sorry, you are indeed too beautiful."

"Thanks for the compliment, but I'm used to it."

"There must have been many people pursuing you when you were in school, right?"

"yes!"

"Where did you go to college?"

"Canada, University of Toronto."

"Why would you want to go to university in Canada?"

"My sister and husband are all over there."

"Oh, how old are you now? Maybe I'm younger than you."

Lei Yunrong, who had not heard a reply for a long time, couldn't help but look up at Li Yunyun, but when he saw his clear eyes looking directly at him, Lei Yunrong couldn't help but touch his face.

"What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"

"No!"

"Then why are you staring at me?"

"I want to see if you are pretending or if you really haven't been in love."

"ha?"

"Don't you think it's bad to ask a girl about her age?"

"I know, I forgot about it for a while."

Hearing what Lei Yunrong said, Li Yunyun was speechless and said:

"The impression you gave me is very different from what I heard and what I see now."

"Is that all a good impression?"

"Shouldn't you ask what the impression is?"

"Oh, what's your impression of me?"

"Are you always so dull when talking to girls?"

"Um...I rarely talk to girls."

"Okay, pretend I didn't say that."

Li Yunyun was really defeated by the man in front of her. She used to be able to figure out the boys around her, but she felt unable to deal with this man.

If Li Yunyun were in the 21st century, she would definitely say:

"Straight man, you deserve to remain single."

For a moment, the room suddenly fell silent.

Finally, Li Yunyun couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"Hey, we are on a blind date. As a boy, shouldn't you take the initiative?"

"How to take the initiative?"

"..."

Lei Yunrong also felt a little embarrassed now and said:

"It's Uncle Li's birthday today, so you should also spend time with your family. I'll ask you to go see a movie another day. I'll go back today."

After saying this, Lei Yunrong hurriedly walked towards the hall. When he heard the noise, Lei Yunrong calmed down.

Lei Yunrong didn't know why. Facing a group of business tycoons, Lei Yunrong was able to remain calm without fear, but he felt a little nervous when facing Li Yunyun.

On the other side, Li Yunyun looked at Lei Yunrong, who was running away in despair, with a smile on his face.

She didn't expect that Lei Yunrong, as a rich man, had never been in love?

Like some of the rich young men she had come into contact with before, let alone falling in love, they began to experience things between men and women early on.

Originally, it was just to satisfy my curiosity and see what kind of young talent could catch my father's eye.
