Fan Zheng and Nawen recognized Song Yueting and were about to come forward to say hello, but asked him to stop him.
"What are you doing here? Isn't the Yuemen already open?" Song Yueting raised his chin and pointed at the door of the Yuemen Ballroom.
The crowd gathered in front of the door had slowly walked in, and Gu Qingdai originally wanted to follow Fan Zheng and Na Wen in.
But she hadn't waited for Ding Moyan and Lu Minglan yet, and was worried that it would be more difficult to find them after entering.
They could only watch helplessly as Fan Zheng and Na Wen walked away. Gu Qingdai pretended to look into the distance, trying to keep a distance from Song Yueting.
"What are you pretending to be? I know you heard it just now." Song Yueting reached out and lowered the brim of his hat, and she couldn't stop laughing.
Gu Qingdai didn't look at him at all and muttered to herself: "What's going on with Lan Lan and Xiao Yan? They look like they're going to be late."
Song Yueting raised his wrist and glanced at his foreign watch, "I'll take you to the backstage dressing room first."
"Mr. Song, hurry up and get busy with important matters. You are the protagonist in this situation today. Without you, this scene cannot be performed." Gu Qingdai just ignored him, wanting her to stay away from her.
Song Yueting twitched his lips, turned around and walked into the Yuemen Ballroom.
Gu Qingdai was waiting for Lu Minglan and Ding Moyan. They originally came to set up a temporary traffic jam at an intersection at the Yuemen Dance Hall, saying they were investigating some important wanted criminals.
If Lu Mingze hadn't revealed his identity in time, they might not have been able to arrive by now.
Gu Qingdai is extremely sensitive to the words "wanted criminal". She really doesn't know what major case has happened in Luancheng.
Everyone hurried into the Yuemen Ballroom. Gu Qingdai accompanied them to the backstage to make final preparations, while Lu Minghe went to find Fan Zheng and others to sit and watch.
When Lu Minglan and Ding Moyan stepped onto the stage one after another, Gu Qingdai had time to breathe.
She hid behind the curtain and looked at Lu Minglan who was introducing herself. She felt that her dress was still a bit lacking today, and she would have to help her improve it for the next performance.
She accidentally glanced down the stage, but when she heard a "bang", it was the newspaper reporter taking pictures of Lu Minglan.
The Lu family has even made arrangements in this regard, which shows how determined Mrs. Lu is to support her daughter.
Wait, she saw Lu Ming, Fan Zheng and others in the audience, what about Lu Mingze?
Only then did Gu Qingdai realize that Lu Mingze was sitting next to Song Yueting, in the judges' seat on the stage.
With the whole family protecting him, Lu Minglan simply wins!
She continued to observe for a while and saw beauties of all kinds, some who were shy and dared not speak, and some who were very expressive.
In short, after reading more, I can really guess a thing or two about their origins.
Gu Qingdai was deeply impressed by one of the girls who was wearing the clothes of the late previous dynasty.
She has a similar temperament to Qin Liuer, and stands out among the beauties heading overseas.
Although the girl tried her best to hide her nervousness, she almost missed the step when she came off the stage.
Gu Qingdai was right next to her and hurriedly stepped forward to help her.
After the girl stood firm, she gave her a standard Wanfu salute, which was full of the legacy of the previous dynasty.
Gu Qingdai guessed that the elders of her family should be the remnants of the previous dynasty, right?
A young lady from that kind of family can participate in a beauty pageant. The elders are quite open-minded.
There are many people in the primary election and it will end in the afternoon.
Some contestants were promoted on the spot, others were eliminated on the spot, and still others entered the waiting list.
Lu Minglan and Ding Moyan were promoted on the spot, and the young lady with a legacy from the previous dynasty fell to the undecided end.
Several newspapers were vying to interview Lu Minglan, and Gu Qingdai repainted her make-up and hairdress. After many instructions, she was let out to face the reporters.
Lu Mingze silently came to Gu Qingdai's side, "You are exhausted."
"I'm pointing out your sister to make money."
Gu Qingdai folded her elbows, and together with Lu Mingze, looked at Lu Minglan who was being interviewed by reporters outside the door.
"Is she doing well today?"
"I think it's pretty good."
"If Lan Lan can win the championship in one fell swoop, you should be a part of it."
"If you insist on saying that, I won't be humble."
Lu Mingze turned to look at her with a smile, "Cunning little boss lady."
Gu Qingdai showed no sign of weakness: "Ah, yes, yes, Mr. Lu is not cunning. When there was a fire in the Zhong Family Theater, you rushed there as soon as possible. Why?"
"Don't tell me, we, Lu Ji, did make money by rebuilding the Zhong Family Theater." Lu Mingze told him frankly.
Gu Qingdai sneered, "The two troupe leaders of the Zhong family are the real strong men. It has only been a while, but the Zhong family's troupe has recovered a lot of its vitality."
"Stop talking about others, talk about you, Shopkeeper Gu."
"What's wrong with me?"
"Are you planning to get supplies from Gong's Department Store for your rouge shop?"
Gu Qingdai hasn't gone to the Gong family for negotiation yet, how could Lu Mingze know? Could it be that Lian Beichuan told him?
"What do you mean?"
"I am quite familiar with Mr. Gong, that is, Gong Xun. If..."
"Stop it! Lu Mingze, I appreciate your kindness, but for my own business, it's more practical for me to do it myself."
"It's just a matter of words. It's not difficult at all." Lu Mingze didn't understand what Gu Qingdai was obsessed with.
Gu Qingdai covered half of her face and said, "Lu Mingze, you are trying to kill me by slapping me in the face."
"Where do I have it?"
"Let me try it on my own?" Gu Qingdai suddenly started and walked towards Lu Minglan who had finished the interview.
Lu Mingze was extremely depressed, why couldn't this Gu Qingdai get enough oil and salt?
"What are Master Lu and Shopkeeper Gu talking about?" Song Yueting walked to his side leisurely.
Lu Mingze pointed to Lu Minglan not far away, "It's not because of my useless sister."
"Miss Lu San is so outstanding. The moment she appeared on the stage, she made others envious." Song Yueting praised her against her will.
"Mr. Song's promotion."
"I will hold a celebration banquet at Osmanthus Tower tonight. Mr. Lu must be there."
Lu Mingze leaned forward and promised: "I will definitely do it."
If it weren't for this beauty pageant, Lu Mingze would really not want to have too much contact with Song Yueting.
In fact, neither he nor his father approved of having Lu Kee Company sponsor this time.
Since the Lu family was one of the founders of the Chamber of Commerce, and now they openly join forces with the Cao Gang, it is really unjustifiable.
But the whole family couldn't resist Mrs. Lu, and finally compromised.
At this point, Lu Mingze is very grateful to Lian Beichuan. If he hadn't spoken for the Lu family at the Chamber of Commerce, the Lu family would have been in an embarrassing situation.
"Sister Qingdai, I was so nervous just now. Xiaoyan was taken away by my second brother when she got off the stage, leaving me alone."
Lu Minglan is more excited than nervous. She has begun to enjoy this high-profile life.
Gu Qingdai straightened her clothes and said, "This has just begun. What you say and do in the future..."
Before she could finish her words, she was knocked down by some crazy and noisy women.
Lu Mingze hurriedly helped her up, asked her if she was injured, and went to talk to the women.
The women didn't stop here at all. They rushed to the backstage dressing room, grabbed the young lady who was a relic of the former dynasty, took out the hemp rope and began to tie her up.
"Help, let me go!" The girl struggled to get away.
The wives warned each other: "Miss, come back with us quickly. The master beat his wife half to death and said that she didn't discipline you as a mother, so he let you come out to participate in this kind of business. It's humiliating."
