Teddy's Counterattack Guide [Rebirth]

The banquet hall where the charity gala is held is located on the top floor of the main building of Yue Lai Convention Center. It is a crystal hall with a glass dome that can accommodate 800 people.After nightfall in summer, the star river is brilliant, and the hundreds of chandeliers hanging from the dome are dazzling, and the two kinds of light complement each other, rendering the whole hall magnificent.

This charity gala is mainly based on charity auctions, and the proceeds will be donated to children with congenital heart disease in the name of the Donghuang Xingqi two companies. It is also to commemorate Mr. Lu Chengrui who died of this kind of disease.

As usual, Lu Yan stood at the right back of the elevator, looking down the text introduction in the invitation letter absently. He couldn't explain why, but he simply felt that no matter what the result was, this kind of charitable cause in the name of the dead would be irrelevant. It was extremely embarrassing.

The manuscript for the speech was put in the pocket of the suit. Lu Yan was a little nervous, afraid that he would make mistakes when reading Chinese in front of so many guests, so he couldn't help touching it through the clothes, and he felt a little relieved when he heard the soft sound of the paper ——

In fact, there is no need to worry too much. Lu Yan comforted himself silently. When he announces his identity to the public, how many people present can continue to pay attention to those unnecessary beautiful scenes?

Gossip is always the most eye-catching, and it comes from the Lu family, which is already on the cusp.

After a while, the elevator stopped, and a "ding" suddenly sounded in the silence.

Lu Yan tidied up the white gloves on both hands, and after the door opened to both sides, he took a deep breath and walked out slowly.

There is a sign-in area in the front hall on the eighth floor, and now the charity party has started, and most of the invited guests have already entered the venue.

The beautiful etiquette in charge of the reception still stood upright. Seeing someone coming, he immediately bowed to Lu Yan respectfully and said with a smile, "Hello, are you here for the charity party?"

Lu Yan nodded politely, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I'm late."

"You're too polite, sir." The receptionist raised her arm as a "please" gesture, "Come here to sign in, and someone will escort you in later."

Lu Yan showed her the invitation letter for inspection, while he picked up a pen to sign on the visitor list.After he finished writing, the receptionist returned the invitation letter, and another male receptionist next to him consciously stepped forward and led Lu Yan to the banquet hall.

The invitation letter Gu Jinglin gave him can only enter the door, but there is no corresponding position, so the male receptionist must not be allowed to follow in, otherwise there will be problems immediately.Lu Yan's mind turned quickly, and he glanced at the diverging corridor. He didn't rush to speak, but waited until the two of them walked to the door of the crystal banquet hall. The male receptionist held the doorknob and pushed the door open. A split second.

"Wait a minute—" Lu Yan said suddenly.

The male receptionist thought something was wrong, stopped quickly, turned to look at Lu Yan, and asked, "What's wrong?"

There was a just right gentle smile on the corner of Lu Yan's mouth, and he said politely: "I want to go to the bathroom, I'll just come back later, you can just send it here..." The male receptionist hesitated for a moment, Lu Yan didn't Giving him a chance to speak, he bowed and added, "I'm late for personal reasons, and I have to trouble you to bring it over in person. If I let you and me again, I'm too embarrassed."

Lu Yan is young, his voice and appearance are very deceiving, coupled with his polite and cultivated manners, it is easy to leave a good impression of meekness and harmlessness on others.

The male receptionist hesitated for a few seconds, and felt that since everything was delivered to the door, there should be no problem in letting the guests go in and find their seats later.Lu Yan noticed that his expression was a little loose, knowing that he was almost persuaded, so he assured him: "Don't worry, I won't affect other guests."

"That's good," the male receptionist said with a smile, "I'll trouble you to enter the venue yourself."

Lu Yan said: "It should."

After finishing speaking, the two separated, and the male receptionist pointed Lu Yan in the direction of the bathroom, and then quickly returned to the front hall to do other things.Lu Yan glanced at his watch, guessing that there was still some time before Lu Boyuan's speech, he simply went into the men's room, very patiently tore up the invitation letter in his hand, threw it into the toilet, and flushed it clean.

Another ten minutes later, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor outside, and then a man was on the phone. The first sentence he said was: "When did you go out? Why haven't you?"

"What? Something went wrong?!"

Du Hui stopped suddenly, obviously shocked by what the other party told him.

Hearing the movement, Lu Yan came out of the bathroom, turned his head, his eyes passed through the corridor, and fell lightly on his back.Du Hui hesitated for a moment, but finally did not turn back to the venue, but continued to rush towards the elevator.

"Didn't Mr. Zhang tell you to pick up someone? How can something happen?"

"He said you don't need it if you don't need it? If you don't want to send it off, don't you know how to drive?"

"Okay, don't explain, which hospital?"

……

Turning the corner, Du Hui lowered his voice, presumably because he didn't want to be heard by outsiders in the front hall.

Lu Yan withdrew his gaze, and seemed a little indifferent to his elder brother's accident.The experience of being bullied when he was a child was too long for him. Now that 16 years have passed, he feels more like a passerby who doesn't like Lu Boyuan, and it's hard to say whether he hates him or not.

——But if possible, perhaps Lu Boyuan's death in the hospital would be a good result.

——At least Li Shujun will be very painful, after all, he is the eldest son who was doted on by her since childhood.

Lu Yan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, a dark thought rarely appeared in his mind, he turned and walked towards the main entrance of the venue, pinching the knot of his tie with his fingers and casually straightened it.

——However, Gu Jinglin is so rigorous in his work, so he should not make such low-level mistakes.People with a good reputation are most afraid of being stained on their backs, let alone paying for murder?It's okay to see this kind of thing out of the light, but if it is exposed to the public one day, it can directly drive a person into a desperate situation.

Lu Yan pushed open the door of the crystal banquet hall, the venue was quiet, only the male host was left on the main stage, and the female host was not there.

According to the procedure, the hosts had already announced the names of the speakers. However, Lu Boyuan had a car accident and it was impossible to be there. The speech session was delayed, resulting in an inexplicable interruption of the whole party.Listening to the conversation just now, Du Hui seems to have just learned the news, which means that Li Shujun, who is still at the venue, is probably still kept in the dark.

In this way, all the initiative was gathered into one bundle, and it fell into Lu Yan's hands effortlessly.

The banquet hall for thousands of people was brightly lit, and the guests were all wondering why the young master of the Lu family hadn't come to the stage to give a speech, and they didn't pay attention to the sudden extra guests at the entrance.

Under the bright light, Lu Yan's face was surprisingly calm, but his heart beat a little faster.He took a deep breath, and walked slowly along the aisle at the farthest edge to the main stage.When passing by the two leading round tables, Lu Yan deliberately glanced over there, and saw Li Shujun, who was dressed up, sitting at the top of the main table, accompanied by company executives, just looking down at her mobile phone, as if she was waiting Whose news.

The next moment, Li Shujun raised his head calmly, and without warning, the eyes of the two met in midair.

It was a scene that had been rehearsed thousands of times in Lu Yan's mind, and just like thousands of times in the past, with a gentle smile on the corners of his eyes and brows, he gave a very educated nod to Li Shujun.

But Li Shujun was beyond shocked.

In an instant, a few flashes were fired, and journalists with professional sense of smell captured the scene.

Affected by this, all the guests finally noticed Lu Yan, and then watched the young man walking up to the main stage suspiciously, and whispered a few words next to the male host. The latter flashed a momentary surprise on his face, and then respectfully Give up your position respectfully.

Lu Yan apologized to him, and turned to face the packed venue.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen."

His voice came from speakers hidden in every corner, and everyone sensed something was wrong in that calm and gentle tone, and couldn't help but hold their breath.The participating reporters were even more sensitive to the extreme, and they got up one after another and came to a place close to the main stage.

"My appearance is a surprise to everyone, because my eldest brother, Mr. Lu Boyuan, unfortunately had an accident on his way to the venue in the evening, so it was temporarily decided that I would replace him in his speech tonight."

Lu Yan scanned the entire venue with a smiling gaze, and finally stopped on Li Shujun.Li Shujun's face was pale, but due to her status, she couldn't get up and leave the table at will, so she could only stare at Lu Yan on the main stage for a moment.

"Let me introduce myself." Lu Yan said, "I am Lu Chengrui's third son, named Lu Yan. I just came back from the United States not long ago. Because I have been studying abroad, this is also the first time I have returned to China, and it is also the first time. Appearing in public. Here I must ask my mother, Ms. Li Shujun—”

He raised his hand to gesture to everyone, and his voice seemed to be instantly tainted with a kind of respect and love for the elders from the younger generation.

"—Thank you for her trust and affirmation in me!"

As soon as this introduction was over, the entire venue fell silent. Lu Yan paused, as if he wanted to give the guests ample time to react.

I don't know how long it took, and suddenly a reporter from the audience expressed everyone's doubts.

"You said...you are Lu Yan, the third young master of the Lu family?"

Lu Yan looked at him and said modestly: "Yes, my Chinese is not that good. If there is something unclear, I hope you don't mind."

"Didn't you die in a car accident?" Another reporter asked.

Li Shujun sensed that something was wrong, and quickly ordered the staff to step forward to stop it, which meant that no questions could be asked at the charity gala, and any questions should be reserved for the press conference later.

"It doesn't matter." Lu Yan still smiled gently and politely, signaling to discourage the reporter's staff to retreat, "This is another thing I want to express my gratitude to my mother, and I just took this opportunity to say it together."

Lu Sanshao spoke, and it was a place where everyone was watching. The staff didn't dare to stop him, so they had to return to their positions wisely.

Li Shujun sat with her back straight, holding the phone with five fingers, shaking slightly involuntarily.

Lu Yandao: "About three months ago, I received the notice of my father's death. I flew back to Huaguo that night, but accidentally encountered a car accident in Xishan. The car accident happened for real, but I was lucky that I didn't go with the car. Instead of falling off a cliff, he was thrown out of the car window, hit the back of the head and fell into a coma."

"My mother found out that there might be a problem with the car accident during the investigation. In order to prevent other accidents and ensure my safety, she announced that I died in a car accident, and then secretly sent me back to the United States for treatment. go home."

"The reason for this is very complicated, and it is inconvenient to disclose it to everyone before it is confirmed. But everything is like what I said just now, my mother has put in a lot of effort to protect me, and my father has just passed away. There are many problems in the Lu family again, and my mother has worked hard day and night, and she hasn't had a peaceful rest for a long time."

Lu Yan spoke with sincerity, and his eyes turned red.

At the same time, Xi Chen, who was at the banquet, couldn't help but glance sideways at Gu Jinglin, and said in a low voice with no expression on his face: "You taught San Shao's acting skills and nonsense skills?"

With a smile in his eyes, Gu Jinglin held the round bottom of the goblet with two slender fingers, shook it absently, and said after a while, "Yanyan is very smart, you don't know him too well."

"I just think he is very cunning." Xi Chen said, "He looks at you with an innocent face every now and then, making it impossible for people to talk to him properly."

"You also discovered his strengths?" Gu Jinglin said.

Xi Chen said helplessly, "I'm afraid you are the only one who thinks this is an advantage."

"No way," Gu Jinglin said, "I really like this."

"Obviously we haven't known each other for a long time. This third young master has been abnormal since he came out. It's easy to suffer if you believe him so easily." Xi Chen sighed, unable to hold back the doubts in his heart, "What do you think of him? Is it so good, just because you like it?"

"There are too many things you don't know." Gu Jinglin looked down at Yin Hong's wine in the goblet, and said, "He has been abroad alone since he was a child, and he has suffered so much and suffered so much. It’s hard to coax someone, of course you have to treat him well.”

What Gu Jinglin said was reasonable, Xi Chen was speechless and had to remain silent.

On the stage, Lu Yan interrupted a reporter who wanted to ask a question, and explained: "The progress of the party has been delayed a lot, and other questions will be reserved for the press conference. I am very sorry."

What he said was well-founded, and the ones invited were well-known reporters from major media, whose quality was higher than that of ordinary entertainment journalists. After hearing what he said, he no longer felt embarrassed. He quickly sorted out the information and photos he had, and planned to hurry Send it back to the company and grab the first page headlines.

Lu Yan helped Mike, remained silent for a few seconds, then spoke again, and said, "Today's charity party is for me to commemorate my father who passed away due to heart disease. It has extraordinary meaning. At the same time, to express my gratitude, I Wanted to invite my mother to come on stage and speak for the party with me."

"welcome--"

His voice fell, and the venue applauded.

Li Shujun's face was ashen, but she had to get up and go on stage with a smile on her face.

The lights are bright, the stars are gathered, dozens of camera equipment and the eyes of thousands of people are focused on the affectionate mother and son.

Lu Yan stepped forward quickly, embraced the woman's slender body in public, and buried his head on the side of her face.The smile on the corner of Li Shujun's mouth froze instantly, her back tensed, and after a few seconds she was forced to hug Lu Yan back stiffly.

Where the camera couldn't capture, Lu Yan was like an extremely obedient and filial son, with the usual soft smile on his brows and eyes, he moved his lips slightly, but his voice went straight to the bottom of the valley.

He leaned against Li Shujun's ear, and said with a sneer, "Mom, I'm back for revenge."
