As she entered the lounge, Lan Yanxi picked the nearest chair and sat down. She immediately bent down to take off her high heels. There were red marks on her heels and it even scraped her skin, causing her eyes to turn red from the pain.
Cheng Yuan didn’t realize that Lan Yanxi was enduring the pain the whole time. When she saw Lan Yanxi, she was startled and quickly squatted down to check on her. "Yanxi, why didn’t you tell me earlier? The quality of your shoes aren’t that good."
Lan Yanxi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. "I don’t blame shoes, but my feet are too delicate. I originally pla
ed to wear another pair of shoes today, but I felt that they weren’t worthy of my clothes. That’s why I chose this pair of white high heels."
"You should have said it earlier. Why did you have to endure until now?" Cheng Yuan sighed, feeling sorry for her.
"Since the commentator has explained to me so enthusiastically, I can’t possibly ruin his mood. Besides, with so many people listening together, if I were to leave on the way, wouldn’t I be giving them face?" So far, Lan Yanxi only endured it because she wanted to be more dedicated and enthusiastic about her work.
"If Mr. President had seen it, he would have felt his heart ache." Cheng Yuan laughed angrily. She still felt that Lan Yanxi was too stubborn. She was willing to endure the pain and take other people’s feelings into consideration. This was probably a heart attack that was common to all kind-hearted and soft-hearted people.
"Don’t let him know." Lan Yanxi laughed.
"What about the ribbon cutting?" Cheng Yuan sighed and asked.
Lan Yanxi sighed. "What else can we do? Continue to wear them. It’s not like I have the habit of bringing shoes with me."
"Wear my shoes. I have a flat heel, and it’s one yard bigger than yours. It should be better." Cheng Yuan immediately suggested.
"No, I’m going to wear it. What are you going to wear?" Lan Yanxi immediately shook her head in disapproval.
"I’ll wear yours!" Cheng Yuan immediately wanted to try on her shoes, but found that she couldn’t wear them at all.
Lan Yanxi gently smiled and advised, "There’s no need for that. It’s just cutting the ribbon. We’ll be back soon."
"You were even pla
ing to have lunch with the guests at noon. Today’s trip has only just begun, how can it be over so soon? How about I get someone to bring you your shoes now?" As Cheng Yuan spoke, she had already left to instruct a staff member on this matter.
Lan Yanxi sat blankly on her chair. Through the window, she could see people coming and going outside. It was very lively.
She suddenly felt that this was the feeling of peace in this world.
Actually, she knew about this library, because her grandfather had given a portion of the donation to this place. Lan Yanxi’s heart was in turmoil, she hoped that this money could be used to make more people understand the importance of knowledge, to make more people see even better works.
The staff member moved quickly as well. He bought Lan Yanxi a pair of flat shoes at a nearby shopping mall. They only had a little heel, which coincidentally allowed him to put them on before she cut the ribbon.
Lan Yanxi gratefully put on her new shoes and stood in the middle of the crowd with a pair of scissors in her hand.
Among them was even Lan Yanxi’s grandfather, who especially introduced the relationship between Old Master Lan and Lan Yanxi. Many of the people at the scene were moved by this sincere dedication, but Lan Yanxi, on the other hand, was trying her best to hold back her tears, not wanting to cry so loudly in such an important occasion.
Lan Yanxi was arranged to sit down with a few foreign guests and chatted about cultural matters in private. Lan Yanxi was young, and there were many things that she still didn’t understand, but it was fortunate that Ling Mofeng had arranged for a few of her employees to help her out.
"Yanxi, the President is here!" Suddenly, Cheng Yuan walked over and whispered into her ear.
"Huh?" Lan Yanxi’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise, then a burst of pleasant surprise arose in her heart.
Why did Ling Mofeng come? Didn’t he say that he was very busy today?
"Mister might just be here for lunch." Cheng Yuan said with a smile.
Lan Yanxi’s heart was overjoyed. Actually, she didn’t have the courage to be alone here today. After all, she was young and things were unstable, so she didn’t have the courage to come into contact with a lot of things.
Ling Mofeng coming uninvited was something to be happy about.
Ling Mofeng’s arrival caused everyone to be pleasantly surprised. They never thought that the president, who had so many things to do, would actually act so intimate. Presumably, it was because the person he loved was here that he was so busy.
Lan Yanxi saw Ling Mofeng in the crowd, he was surrounded by some people, the curator was excitedly explaining something to him, the distance was too far, and it was a bit noisy. Lan Yanxi automatically lost her hearing, her beautiful eyes were focused on the man’s serious face.
Only after Chu Lie reminded him of this did he turn around, and saw a beautiful silhouette amongst the crowd. Ling Mofeng immediately lowered his head and said something to the curator, then quickly walked towards her.
Lan Yanxi’s breathing was a little sluggish as she looked at him timidly with her beautiful eyes. Even though the two of them had slept in the same bed last night, Lan Yanxi now felt that they were separated by a distance. He was truly the same radiance of the sun and the moon, and she was merely a tiny star surrounding his halo.
Ling Mofeng said gently, "Yanxi."
"Why are you here?" Lan Yanxi clearly had other things she wanted to say to him, but the moment she opened her mouth, she only asked him daily.
"Since it isn’t too far, we still have to eat lunch wherever we go. Even if you are here, of course I want to come over as well." No one around them dared to breathe loudly, so, even though Ling Mofeng’s voice was very low, someone still heard it and immediately felt a bowl of dog food mercilessly smack on their face. Oh god, after eating this bowl of dog food from Mr. President, they should find a girlfriend and have a good relationship that would never end.
However, Lan Yanxi was a bit shy. She didn’t dare to say those sweet words to Ling Mofeng in front of so many people.
Ling Mofeng, of course, was not too late. The staff had already arranged a place for them to eat, which was the cafeteria in the restaurant. Ling Mofeng held Lan Yanxi’s hand and walked towards the cafeteria with everyone accompanying them.
There were already many famous scholars from home and abroad sitting around the round table. When Ling Mofeng came in, everyone stood up. Ling Mofeng immediately smiled politely and said, "Seniors, please take a seat. No need to be too polite."
"Mr. President, you are young and capable. It is a great fortune for our country."
"Yes, since Madam is so generous and is concerned about the public good, it will definitely be thanks to you."
Ling Mofeng and Lan Yanxi couldn’t help but look at each other. They could see the smile in each other’s eyes.
After sitting down, Lan Yanxi sat beside Ling Mofeng while Cheng Yuan and Chu Lie ate at the next table.
Ling Mofeng and Lan Yanxi, on the other hand, enjoyed their lunch together with everyone else.
Ling Mofeng had always loved literature since he was young, so he had some topics to talk about with the seniors here. As for the literature related knowledge, Lan Yanxi was completely confused and could only lower her head to eat.
Suddenly, she saw a piece of beef and shrimp in her bowl. She looked at the man beside her and saw his gentle and smiling eyes. Her heart skipped a beat.
Heavens, why did she feel that Ling Mofeng was particularly attractive today?
The contrast between him and Lan Yanxi made her heart beat fast. Suddenly, she wanted to jump over and hug him, or let him hug her.
"Eat more!" A man’s deep voice sounded in his ears.
Lan Yanxi blushed. She had already eaten enough. Everyone was talking. She was the only one who was focused on eating. Did she think she was not eating enough?
"En!" Under the stares of the crowd, Lan Yanxi could only nod her head in a very official ma
er, indicating that she had heard.
Ling Mofeng couldn’t help but laugh when he saw how she was holding it in her hand. He suddenly noticed that she didn’t seem to be serious. Now that she was serious, it did not sound fu
y at all.
