Chapter 253 Li Jiaojiao

  Kyoto, weekend.

   Lan Shu originally planned to go to Chen Ping and Zhou Di to see the development of cosmetics.

  But it happened that the weekend was off, so she had to change her plan and planned to live a salted fish life at home for two days.

   But she never thought that her salty fish life was only one morning. During lunch, Lan Shu received a call from her father, Lan Weicheng, saying that there was a dinner party in the business district of Kyoto at night, and she was asked to go there with her.

  In Kyoto, business development is definitely leading the country, so the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce was established last year, and Lan Weicheng is a member of the chamber of commerce.

  A group of businessmen who are not short of money get together, and they can always change their tricks to create something that ordinary people can't see.

   For example, regular receptions, who holds banquets, etc.

  Lan Weicheng's business is not big, and he is the mainstay in the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce, so he is not qualified to attend many banquets.

  It is also the twice-yearly conference of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce, and he can receive invitations.

  These two conferences are the mid-year conference and the year-end conference.

  This mid-year meeting will start in the afternoon, and members will attend if there is no accident.

   In the evening, there will be a dinner party.

   During the dinner, members of the chamber of commerce can bring two family members to participate.

  During the mid-year dinner last year, Xu Shan and Lan Xinya followed Lan Weicheng to the dinner.

   Lan Xinya is quite comfortable at the dinner party, and will soon be able to communicate with the ladies from other families.

  But Xu Shan didn't like that kind of occasion very much.

  A group of wealthy wives gathered together, talking about dressing and the excellence of their children. This one plans to let their daughter study abroad, and that one will let their son inherit the property in the future.

  Someone asked Xu Shan, "Is your family's business big? How much money does your husband give each month?"

  Xu Shan is not a woman who relies on men for food, and she never asks her men for money. It is Lan Weicheng who takes the initiative to pay for the house every month.

  Even if Lan Weicheng doesn't pay, she still has a job, so she can take care of the food and clothing of the family of three.

  So when those rich wives saw her speechless, they thought she was a low-status woman at home, who usually had no money to spend, and lived by the faces of men, and they despised her endlessly.

  Xu Shan felt that she was not on the same side as those people, and there was no need to explain, so the dinner gave her a bad sensory impression!

   Afterwards, there will be another dinner party, and Xu Shan will no longer attend, and Lan Xinya will follow.

  The situation this time is the same as before, Xu Shan will not attend the dinner party.

  And Lan Weicheng wanted to take his Shu Shu to participate in the activities of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce, and the next step is to let Shu Shu also enter the Chamber of Commerce and become a member of the Chamber of Commerce.

   Lan Shu didn't know anything about Lan Weicheng's thoughts, she just thought that Lan Weicheng wanted to show her to the world.

   It's okay to be idle anyway, so she agreed.

   After writing down the location and start time of the dinner, Lan Shu asked Aunt Man to call her at three o'clock, while she took a nap first to recharge her spirits.

  After getting up in the afternoon, Lan Shu started skin care, choosing clothes, and matching the appropriate makeup according to the clothes.

  For skin care, Lan Shu is not just a simple water cream.

  She first washed her face with goat milk soap, then patted the water, and then applied a hot towel to her face.

  After the pores are opened, she mixes a part of the water and milk and applies it thickly as a mask for ten minutes, then washes off with water, and then pats on the water and milk.

   This set of skin care has made her already pink and delicate skin softer, more hydrated, and her natural and flawless skin is more perfect than any base makeup!

  So the skin care is over, and when it comes to the makeup part, she just shaved her eyebrows, slightly wore eye shadow, and painted red lips according to her rather textured black long dress with a classic style and a waist.

  Originally, she needed some jewelry to match the whole look, but Lan Shu found that she didn't have any jewelry, and the only thing she usually carried with her was a watch.

  So she thought about it for a moment, and she could only remove a black ribbon from another outfit, and tied a bow on her slender and fair side neck as a decoration.

   Fortunately, she still has the bag.

  Before when she went to Yuyuan's store to pick out clothes, it happened that Yuyuan also had a shop selling leather bags and belts, so she picked up a few bags and sent them together.

  So before going out, Lan Shu chose a delicate wine-red leather bag, which could fit her big brother.

  …

   At seven o'clock in the evening, in the No. 1 banquet hall on the third floor of the Kyoto Hotel, in a banquet hall of seven to eight hundred square meters, celebrities from all over the capital's business circles gathered.

  Downstairs, twenty or thirty cars parked almost all the places on both sides of the hotel, so many cars lined up together, such a scene is not common even in Kyoto!

  Lan Weicheng already had a meeting on the second floor in the afternoon, and in the evening, he can go directly to the banquet hall on the third floor, so Lan Shu came by himself.

  Master Zhang parked the car in front of the restaurant, and when Lan Shu got out of the car, the car drove away slowly and stopped nearby to wait.

  Because she came by car, the family members of wealthy businessmen who arrived at the hotel around the same time as Lan Shu were very impressed with her.

In addition, she is beautiful, and the clothes she wears are also beautiful. Before she reached the banquet hall on the third floor, there was already a girl wearing a milky white western-style court-style dress, curly hair, and a pearl necklace on her neck. Son took the initiative to say hello to her.

   "Hello, I see that your skirt is very beautiful, and the neckband is also very special, can I get to know you?"

  Lan Shu followed the voice and looked at the girl. The girl was not very old, about twenty, with a small face, delicate features, and a great temperament. At first glance, she looked like a well-bred lady.

  Although she didn't know the other party, Lan Shu had a good impression of her when she saw the girl looking at her kindly.

  So she nodded and replied, "Of course, my name is Lan Shu."

   "Hello Lan Shu, my name is Li Jiaojiao." Li Jiaojiao said with a smile.

  Like Lan Shu, Li Jiaojiao came alone, so the two went up to the third floor together, and walked into the banquet hall after signing in.

  The two of them were dressed in black and the other in white. They were both beautiful. One was bright and the other was handsome.

  For a while, some people at the banquet couldn't help but inquired about the identities of the two of them. Which chamber member's family member were they?

  Where there are many people, the flow of news is also fast.

   Soon, Lan Shu heard someone whispering in the crowd, "That seems to be the youngest daughter of the Li family. She just came back from abroad and it's her first time attending a banquet at the chamber of commerce, so you don't recognize her."

   "Yes! I remembered. Before the youngest daughter of the Li family went abroad, my husband and I visited her home. We met twice. I can still see the outline of her face when she was a child."

   "It turned out to be a child of the Li family, no wonder he has such a temperament!"

   "Yes, the Li family is different from those nouveau riche who later developed a prosperous business. Their ancestors have accumulated financial resources, and there are still people above them. When they were broken down and old, they were not affected much. They are rich~!"
