Chapter 67: Charity Dinner (Part II)
Le Xiao felt a little confused, she had never experienced such an experience in front of everyone, her hands and feet were cold, and her limbs were stiff and she slowly stepped in holding Jean's hand.
Suddenly, Le Xiao stumbled under her feet, her knees were weak and she fell to the ground with a small exclamation, one hand protected her, Jean half-squatted aside, smiled and helped Le Xiao up.
There were bursts of snickering from the crowd, and everyone could see that the girl was completely unaccustomed to this kind of occasion, extremely nervous and looked poor, with a dodgy look in her eyes, and no confidence.
Le Xiao's cheeks quickly warmed up, she was embarrassed like a piece of wood, she couldn't wait to find a hole in the ground to get into, her ankle was twisted, she limped as soon as she took a step, that appearance made many people laugh, Le Xiao only felt that the world was spinning, and her head was buzzing.
But as his gaze shifted, Rakushino was picked up by Jean.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please don't laugh at a lady's gaffe, it's impolite, this lady just sprained, please let go."
Jean said, turning to the right, for a while many women in the crowd cast appreciative glances, some people who were still laughing had stiff expressions, Jean ignored the eyes around him, and directly took Le Xiao to the sidelines, called up a light and shadow shadow, helped her drag off her shoes, and gently checked the injury on Le Xiao's left ankle.
Zou Yun immediately ordered someone to bring the medicine box over, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while, so he immediately relieved the atmosphere and said.
"Chief Jean is really a gentleman, okay, the purpose of my invitation to you today is to take over the newborns that are about to be born, as you know, Bright City has just experienced a disaster, although the situation has calmed down, but the next open newborn reproductive rights, there will be 100,000 newborns, of which about five CDs are from the bottom, so I want to do something for these children, tonight's banquet is to establish a foundation to provide effective and reliable living security for these poor children."
There was a burst of clapping, and no one seemed to care about the episode just now, Gene took the medicine box from the waiter next to him, took out a bottle of spray, and helped her rub her ankle after spraying her.
This series of actions is in the eyes of many people, some find it extremely incredible, some express puzzlement, and everything sneers and laughs.
Le Xiao couldn't sit still, she lowered her head, and blamed herself, such a humiliating behavior was entirely because of her relationship, but now those contempts were completely transferred to Jean's body.
Zou Yun kept saying that he would donate 5 million as the foundation's start-up capital first, and all newborns from the bottom could apply for this support fund, but Jean didn't listen to a word, he sneered.
Soon the formal dinner began, Zou Yun let everyone move on their own, and then came down the stairs and talked and laughed with some rich people.
"Yo, the famous Chief Jean, a gentleman, whose daughter is this little girl? How could you be so careless, this kind of occasion ........"
Before a fat guy could finish speaking, Jean stood up, smiled politely, ignored the man in front of him, and directly helped Le Xiao to leave.
"Hmph, I'm talking to you, Chief Jean, are you ........?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not used to this kind of occasion, and I have no obligation or reason to answer you."
For a while, the contemptuous eyes around looked over, and someone kept saying something in private.
"If you want to eat, I'll get it for you."
Jean said, and Le Xiao shook his head in frustration.
"I'm sorry Jean, I ........"
Without saying a word, Jean walked to the food table, and Le Xiao was even more uneasy, and many people around him were pointing at them, as if they had made an appointment.
"I heard that the 13 sections are just miscellaneous and have no rights at all, and it is said that the section chief is just an empty title."
"Well, I've also heard that the reason why Jean is so arrogant is actually a woman's godson in private."
"Not only that, he was attacked last night, I heard that it was because he provoked a certain boss."
Le Xiao was a little angry, and the whispers around her were slandering Jean, if it was Le Xiao, she would have gotten up and argued with them, and in the end Le Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to get up in pain, Jean had already returned, bringing two plates of food and wine.
"Hurry up and eat, you're hungry!"
"Don't you care at all? Those guys are excessive, obviously ......."
Jean lit a cigarette and took a leisurely puff, and a few ill-intentioned young men approached, bottles and glasses in their hands.
"Chief Jean, the first time we meet, it's better to see than to hear, and have a drink."
As he spoke, a guy grunted and poured a full glass of wine.
"I'll do it first for respect."
Soon several guys around poured wine glasses one after another, with a wicked smile on their faces, Jean took the wine glasses, drank them all, and drank them all without changing his face, without the slightest drunkenness on his face, and still maintained a polite and gentle smile.
A few people were a little surprised, and just as they were about to leave, Jean stopped them.
"Since you have toasted me, I must also toast you."
As he spoke, Jean took a bottle of high wine, unscrewed it, touched it against a person's cup, and drank the whole bottle under the gaze of the audience, and then took a new bottle and handed it to the man, and the guy opposite smiled awkwardly.
"What's wrong? Isn't that your etiquette? ”
Jean said that he drank a bottle of high wine, and he could see that Le Xiao on the side opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it, and the six people in front of him were holding the high wine in their hands, with a bitter face, and a few of them started to drink a few sips and already wanted to vomit, and a person around them was waiting to see the joke.
In the end, the six people couldn't get over the face and drank it anyway, but after drinking four of them, they were carried away, and the other two vomited on the spot.
"You're alright, Jean."
Rakuxiao looked at Jean worriedly, but he continued to eat without any problems, still smiling.
"Hurry up and eat, the food is cold."
After a while, after most of the people had eaten, they gathered together to talk, and many women gathered around, and Le Xiao looked at them with some surprise.
Jean politely replied to them something, and the woman sat down around Jean with a happy appearance.
At this time, Huashen and Niya sat in the distance with their respective partners, and Niya sighed helplessly.
"It's like this again, I don't want to go over, that guy will be the target of public criticism wherever he is, whether it's good or bad."
Huashen laughed.
"After all, everyone loves mystery, and Jean himself is such a person, handsome and gentle, with an elusive mystery."
