Song Lan rested in his arms, her butterfly-like eyelashes trembled, and she said reluctantly, "I'm very busy at work and don't want to go."
"You have to go even if you don't want to."
He Chaozhi paused, thinking that women wouldn't like this tone.
He coughed slightly and said coaxingly, "That charity dinner will be attended by celebrities from all walks of life, many of whom are invisible to the outside world. If you can get in touch with them, you will have inexhaustible resources for future interviews.
exhaust."
"...You did it on purpose, He Chaozhi?"
In his arms, a woman's soft and angry voice soon came.
He Chaozhi clearly knew her weakness and would work hard for her job, so he deliberately set up such a tempting trap.
It's right to think about it. With a status like He Chaozhi's, the banquet he can attend must be a gathering of celebrities.
The more Song Lan thought about it, the more he felt itchy, and a man's chuckle came from above his head.
"So are you going, eh?"
"Go, I'll go!" Song Lan secretly rolled her eyes at him.
He will trick people all day long.
After agreeing to the bet, Fang Xueqi rarely rested for a day.
That evening, after Song Lan got off work, she received a call from He Chaozhi.
"I have an impromptu meeting here, which may be delayed. You go to the meeting venue and wait for me. I'll be back in an hour."
Song Lan didn't want to waste the opportunity to meet major celebrities, so she responded softly, "Then come quickly, I'll wait for you first."
After hanging up the phone, Song Lan took a taxi to the charity dinner venue.
This charity dinner was organized by the Jun family, a large family in Night City.
The Jun family is kind-hearted, and I heard that a similar charity auction is held every year, and all the funds raised will be donated to the society to help the poor and out-of-school children.
Song Lan has always wanted to interview the Jun family, but the Jun family is too low-key and unwilling to be interviewed by reporters, so she has been unable to do so.
When she came to the charity dinner this time, she wanted to get to know the Jun family as much as possible.
Song Lan walked up the steps. Because he didn't know the way, he planned to ask a waiter for questioning.
Just as Fang Xueqi came out of the venue to get some air, she saw Song Lan coming from a distance, and her eyes lit up with fire.
"Sigh, it's so unlucky that she's here."
Fang Xueqi hid behind the pillar, watching Song Lan's movements furtively.
As a young lady of the Fang family, it was natural for her to come to such an occasion, but Song Lan, a woman with no status, coming here would only make people feel that she had fallen into the Jun family.
"Nowadays, cats and dogs can really sneak in."
Fang Xueqi gently rolled her eyes. Seeing that Song Lan seemed to be looking for a way, she came up with a plan and stopped the passing waiter.
"Hey, come here, have you seen that woman?" Fang Xueqi pointed at Song Lan not far away, who was not dressed up carefully but was still graceful.
The waiter knew Fang Xueqi and nodded nervously, "See, what's wrong, Miss Fang?"
"She's here to help in the kitchen. She probably can't find her way around. Go and take her to the kitchen." Fang Xueqi lazily directed, taking out a wad of bills from her bag and handing it to the waiter.
"Well, the money is yours now."
The waiter took it with both hands, but still hesitated.
Although that lady was dressed simply, her temperament didn't look like that of an ordinary person, and she was so pretty... How could she be a kitchen helper?
Seeing that the waiter was hesitant to come forward, the smile on Fang Xueqi's face disappeared.
She raised her white fingertips and gently poked the waiter's head. She bit her red lips and said word by word, "I asked you to take her to the kitchen. Are you deaf? Do you dare to disobey me? Believe it or not."
Can I have someone kick you out immediately and cost you your job?"
The Jun family's job, even as a waiter, has a high salary.
The waiter needed this job to support his family, so he quickly lowered his head in fear, "I understand, Miss Fang, I'll go right away."
He bit the bullet and came to Song Lan's side under Fang Xueqi's gaze, "Miss, are you looking for someone?"
"No, I don't know where to enter the banquet hall. Can you help me show the way?" Seeing the waiter, Song Lan's eyes lit up and she asked gently.
The waiter quietly glanced in the direction of Fang Xueqi and smiled reluctantly, "Okay, I'll take you there right now."
He said and walked ahead.
Song Lan was preoccupied with how to introduce herself to the Jun family, and did not notice anything strange about the waiter.
The waiter took her to a door and said, "It's right here."
Looking at the dark door in front of him, there was some noise coming from inside, but Song Lan just felt that something was not right.
She couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure this is the door leading to the banquet hall?"
"Yes, it is. It is the back entrance of the banquet hall, so it doesn't look very inconspicuous." The waiter explained in a panic.
"...Okay." Song Lan didn't understand the layout of the Jun family, and hearing the crowds inside, it was probably only as lively as the banquet hall.
She opened the door and was about to walk in when she was suddenly blinded by a burst of mist gushing out from inside.
Then she was pushed from behind and she stumbled and fell in.
"I'm sorry, young lady, I was forced into this too!"
The waiter said this in a hurry, closed the door and ran away.
Song Lan was choked by the mist. It took him a long time to recover, but he realized that the place he was in was not the banquet hall, but... the kitchen.
In the back kitchen, more than a dozen chefs and dozens of helpers were walking around, busy and busy, and no one noticed her sudden intrusion.
Song Lan glanced over and found more than eight kinds of cuisines alone, including Chinese and foreign cuisines, Western pastries, and carved fruits.
Song Lan just wanted to laugh.
Who is so stupid that he tricked her and tricked her into the kitchen?
She turned around and tried to open the door, but found that the door was locked from the outside and could not be opened.
Song Lan was speechless for a while and could only walk forward and passed through the back kitchen.
In front of the stove, three or four maids were surrounding an aristocratic middle-aged woman to persuade her.
"Madam, please stop being busy. There are so many people here today, so just take a rest."
"That's right, we are in the kitchen, so don't worry about it."
"That's not possible. Our Jun family has always done everything ourselves, and today's dinner is no exception. If I help you more, you won't have to be so tired."
Song Lan looked at the gentle middle-aged woman who spoke.
The other party is very elegant and has a graceful face. The jade bracelet on his hand is very valuable at first glance, but apart from the bracelet, there are no other expensive items.
I heard they called her Madam just now...
Song Lan suddenly remembered the information he had obtained.
Could this be Mrs. Jun who is rumored to be frugal and gentle? She is also the mother of Jun Zetian, the head of the Jun family.
Song Lan suddenly became excited. Unexpectedly, he accidentally met the person he wanted to see!
Seeing that Mrs. Jun could not be persuaded, the servants around rolled up their sleeves to help Mrs. Jun.
Seeing this, Song Lan took off an apron from the wall and put it on, and decisively joined in.
"Mrs. Jun, I know how to knead dough. You have a bad back, so leave this to me."
