When he heard Su Yaya talking to someone, Chen Xiuqi also turned around to see who it was . Sister Hui hurriedly smiled at him . “It’s been a while, President Chen . ”
He looked at her face and raised an eyebrow . Who was she again? Sister Hui met his gaze and gripped her handbag tighter as her heart began to race . Did he remember her? She had interviewed him just two months ago .
Unfortunately for her, Chen Xiuqi had forgotten . He could tell that she looked a little familiar, but he had no idea where she was from . Luckily, he was used to dealing with things like this . He gave her a polite nod and turned back around .
Did he really just turn his back on her like that?
Sister Hui stared at his back with her mouth agape . She had a whole stomach of words ready but was cut off after only one sentence!
She turned to Su Yaya who returned her look with a polite smile . There was no other meaning to it, but in Sister Hui’s eyes, it seemed like Su Yaya was mocking her . Unbeknownst to Su Yaya, Sister Hui became a little unhappy with her .
Fortunately, just in time, the host announced the start of the charity dinner . Several donations were made to the auction and the money would go towards treatment for disabled children .
Su Yaya didn’t know anything about the auction other than that, but knowing it was for a good cause, she made sure to pay close attention to it .
The first item was a landscape painting by Master Wu . Su Yaya didn’t recognize the name and paid attention to the bidders instead .
There were people who liked to collect paintings . The bidding went back and forth with the price increasing by 100,000 each time . After a while, a man with a pudgy face finally won the painting for 1 . 2 million .
Several more items were sold off in succession, including a Shoushan stone carving provided by the Film Emperor and a limited-edition handbag from the Film Empress .
