Reborn, forced to be pampered by the Huo family prince
Chapter 284 Baby, how much should we donate?
The banquet hall was already filled with people of all kinds.
Feng Shi and Feng Lin led the way, while Huo Mingxiao took Ye Ning's hand and walked gracefully into the banquet hall.
When the four of them came in, they undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention.
Many eyes were cast on Ye Ning, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
Unlike the previous banquets she attended, people at that time would not look at her so unscrupulously, but now all eyes were focused on her, and many of them were not subtle at all.
Whether it is envy, jealousy, dislike or hatred, it is all so naked.
But Ye Ning didn’t quite understand why someone would look at her with such hatred.
Who have I offended again?
Ye Ning walked through most of the banquet hall with a calm expression. Although he did not look around, he still saw several familiar faces.
But she didn't want to see these people, and similarly, the way they looked at her was not very friendly.
Ye Ning could still understand why Huo Yiyi, Lu Ya and others were present, but the only difference was why Ye Wan, Zhao Ping and Zhao Li were also there.
Ye Ning shook his head slightly. As expected, there was no threshold for this banquet.
Huo Mingxiao led Ye Ning into an encirclement, where stood the six families hosting the banquet.
Almost everyone knows Ye Ning, but he has not been formally introduced yet.
Huo Mingxiao formally introduced Ye Ning's identity to everyone, and everyone greeted him politely.
Everyone raised their glasses and talked happily.
Huo Mingxiao really did as he said. He didn't let Ye Ning leave his side for even a second and held her hand the whole time.
The climax of the banquet, the donation session, soon arrived.
All the guests gathered in a hall, and on the stage in the front, the host gave a passionate speech.
Huo Mingxiao and Ye Ning sat at the table in the front and center, along with Ye Ning's uncle and cousin.
Because he was sitting with his uncle and cousin, Ye Ning inexplicably relaxed a little and started talking more.
She also discovered that at this time, there were still many eyes staring at her from behind.
She didn't want to care, but there were too many eyes on her and she couldn't completely ignore it.
Huo Mingxiao noticed her discomfort and held her in his arms, allowing her to try her best to disappear from the sight of the people behind her.
The donation process actually starts with an auction, which is to auction one's personal belongings, and then use the proceeds from the auction as donations.
The first item on display was a bronze mirror that was more than 500 years old. The owner was the chairman of a company.
The bronze mirror was finally sold at a high price of 80 yuan.
Then a landscape painting, then an antique dress, then...
Ye Ning was not very interested in other people's collections and was chatting with his cousin.
After the 30th personal item was auctioned, Ye Ning yawned and felt a little drowsy.
"Baby, are you sleepy?"
"Kind of."
"Then let's go back."
"No, it's almost time for donations, you can't leave."
"But you're sleepy."
"It's okay, I can hold on for a while."
As they were talking, Uncle Ye Ning patted her on the shoulder.
"Ningning, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ye Ning smiled:
"It's okay uncle, I just felt a little bored and sleepy, he's the one making a fuss."
Uncle: "How about asking your cousin to take you back first?"
Ye Ning: "No need, uncle, we have booked a room."
Uncle: "I see. But if you feel uncomfortable, you should tell me right away, okay?"
Ye Ning smiled sweetly: "Okay."
Third cousin Gu Nanxing also expressed his concern:
"Ningning, are you not used to coming to this kind of place?"
Ye Ning: "Not bad. By the way, cousin, you just took a picture of a dagger. Do you like that kind of thing?"
Gu Nanxing: "In my next movie, I play a prince who has a short sword for self-defense. I want to experience it first to get a feel for it."
Ye Ning: "Cousin, you actually want to film a costume drama?"
Gu Nanxing: "The script is very good. I am quite interested."
Ye Ning: "I'm really looking forward to it. If your fans knew, they would be so happy. I also want to see my cousin in ancient costume."
Gu Nanxing: "Why are you only interested in ancient costumes? I have so many movies, you haven't seen them all, right?"
Ye Ning: "..."
Ye Ning was speechless for a moment, blinked, and tried to get away with it.
She is indeed not interested in movies, TV series, etc. She has only watched a few movies in her life, and has never watched a complete TV series.
It’s quite strange to say.
Gu Nanxing smiled and said, "Why? Are you feeling wronged? But it doesn't matter. I know you don't like watching movies or TV series."
Ye Ning: "I will definitely watch you play the prince this time. Cousin, what kind of prince are you playing?"
Gu Nanxing: "He is quite powerful, but his character is a bit flawed, a bit like a lunatic. I can't spoil too much about him, you will know when you watch it."
Ye Ning's heart skipped a beat and he felt vaguely uneasy.
For some reason, she wanted to see the script, but was also a little scared to see it.
Afraid it would be like what she thought.
She was distracted and pinched Huo Mingxiao's waist unconsciously.
Huo Mingxiao felt pain and trembled unexpectedly, then he realized something was wrong in an instant and reached out to hug her tightly.
The two of them were in perfect sync, looked at each other, and pretended nothing had happened.
Ye Ning calmed down and looked at Gu Nanxing:
"Cousin, can you let me take a look at the script? I promise I won't tell anyone else. I'll just read it myself."
Gu Nanxing was a little surprised that Ye Ning would make such a request, but this was the first time she made a request to him, so of course he wanted to satisfy her.
Not to mention that he promised not to spread it, even if she wanted to show it to others, he would agree. At most, he would pay to buy out the script.
Gu Nanxing smiled slightly: "Sure, I can send it to you now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the surprise on Ye Ning's face.
Ye Ning smiled sweetly: "Thank you, cousin, you are so nice."
Gu Nanxing was very pleased with Ye Ning's Baoqing. He was so happy that he could show off to his elder and second brothers when he got back.
Soon, Ye Ning's phone vibrated, and she knew that Gu Nanxing had sent her the script.
But I am confused as to whether I should open it and take a look now.
After hesitating for a long time, he looked up at Huo Mingxiao for help. Huo Mingxiao held her hand tightly and gave him a reassuring and gentle smile.
Then he tilted his head, put his ear close to hers, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"When we get back, I'll watch it with you."
Ye Ning nodded slightly.
Because he had something on his mind, Ye Ning was absent-minded afterwards.
Huo Mingxiao simply held her in his arms and let her sit on his lap so that she could be more comfortable, even if she fell asleep.
Ye Ning had been feeling sleepy before, and now being held in Huo Mingxiao's arms, his whole body felt warm, and sleepiness came over him from all directions.
It wasn't until she heard the host calling her uncle's name that she suddenly came to her senses.
Seeing her bewildered face, Huo Mingxiao smiled and leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"Uncle donated 3 million, baby, how much should we donate?"
