Lu Ming smiled and clapped, then watched Liu Wenhao slowly walk onto the stage.
Liu Wenhao, dressed simply in a t-shirt and jeans, wearing a hat and sunglasses, showed no signs of injury on his face. Standing in the center of the stage, he spoke into the microphone: "Thank you for your attention. I am Liu Wenhao. Perhaps many of you are not familiar with me, so let me introduce myself. When I was studying in Hong Kong, I acted in several films, including 'Martial Arts Heroes', in which I played a role."
"Hahaha, so you're a handsome guy!" the host laughed. "So, may I ask, how old are you this year?"
Liu Wenhao smiled and said, "Thirty-one years old."
The host said, "We know that male celebrities in Hong Kong are generally quite young, especially popular idols like you. We'd like to ask... have you ever been in a relationship before?"
Liu Wenhao was stunned.
The host seemed to realize something and quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "I'm sorry! I didn't doubt you, I just..."
Liu Wenhao said, "It's okay. I've never been in a relationship."
"Oh...so what type of girl do you like? Or rather, what type of job do you prefer?"
Liu Wenhao pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before saying, "My type..."
He glanced at Lu Ming, smiled, and said, "Probably someone like Mr. Lu."
The crowd burst into laughter and shouted, "Hello, Mr. Lu!"
The host said, "Mr. Lu is so young, yet he has already started his own entertainment company and established a studio. That's amazing!"
Lu Ming said modestly, "Not at all, it was all just a lucky accident."
The host asked, "Your studio is now quite well-known in the industry. Have you ever thought about expanding into the film and television industry?"
Lu Ming said, "I haven't considered it."
"why?"
"Because our company doesn't need to develop the film and television industry," Lu Ming said. "Our goal is to work in the internet industry, not just the film industry."
"The internet industry?" the host exclaimed in surprise. "Mr. Lu's views on the internet are different from those of most people."
Lu Ming said, "Yes, our company has just entered the Internet field and is still in the exploratory stage, so we haven't considered this field yet."
"So, Mr. Lu, have you considered what benefits this project would bring you if you succeeded?"
“I hadn’t thought of that,” Lu Ming said. “There’s still a lot to explore in the internet industry. However, our plan is to start trying now.”
"Then let's wait and see!" the host said. "And for the next segment, please enjoy tonight's theme music—"
The melodious singing began slowly, and a series of elegant tunes drifted into everyone's ears.
"So, tonight, please welcome Mr. Liu Wenhao and Ms. Li Jing to dance."
As soon as the host finished speaking, Liu Wenhao took Li Jing's hand and they began to dance gracefully under the lights.
Looking at the two of them, Lu Ming suddenly felt like he had become a third wheel.
……
This charity gala was a high-profile event, inviting many renowned directors and screenwriters. However, the real stars of the evening were Liu Wenhao and Li Jing, who were the focus of attention.
The lights in the dance floor dimmed, leaving only Liu Wenhao and Li Jing exchanging dance steps in the middle. Li Jing's waist swayed perfectly, while Liu Wenhao, being a gentleman, constantly guided her body.
As the music drew to a close, Liu Wenhao and Li Jing stopped dancing and bowed to the audience in gratitude.
Chapter 960 Peaceful and Tranquil Life!
"Congratulations to Mr. Liu on winning today's championship!" the host said.
Liu Wenhao smiled and said, "Thank you everyone!"
"Now, let's take a look at the performances of the other three contestants."
"Next up is the biggest surprise of our event! He is..." The host's tone suddenly rose, "...Li Jing!"
The lights on site suddenly turned on.
Li Jing slowly walked onto the stage. She was wearing a black dress with a thin veil draped over her shoulders. Her skin was a healthy wheat color, her features were exquisite and perfect, and her eyes were clear and resolute.
Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Wow!".
"Li Jing!"
"She's even more beautiful in person than on TV!"
"She's only 22 years old!"
Screams erupted from the scene, and some reporters even took out their cameras and frantically pressed the shutter.
Liu Wenhao was also captivated by Li Jing, staring at her with infatuated eyes.
At this point, the host said, "Now, please welcome our judges."
Li Jing turned her head and saw a middle-aged man in a gray suit. He had a full beard and looked very serious.
"Who is this……"
"Our judge, Mr. Wang!"
Teacher Wang sat down in the chair, raised his head, glanced at Li Jing with his sharp eyes, and said indifferently, "Today, I am here to announce the prizes for this year's charity auction gala."
"The winner of this prize will be decided by your vote!"
"Now, please raise your hand if I call your name."
The whole place was silent.
A moment later, Lu Ming was the first to raise his hand.
"Lu Ming!"
The host said, "Mr. Lu Ming has already guessed the prize. Could he tell everyone the details of the prize?"
Lu Ming said, "This is an extremely precious collectible. It is the 'Heart of the Ocean,' personally designed by the renowned international jewelry designer Frank Austin. It has strong bulletproof capabilities and is priceless!"
"Wow!"
"Great!"
"I love this ring so much!"
"Oh my god!"
"This is the best gift I've received all year!"
Lu Ming nodded slightly. With the matter concluded, Liu Wenhao extended his hand to Lu Ming: "Congratulations!"
"Thank you." Lu Ming shook his hand and said softly, "I'll be going now."
Liu Wenhao nodded.
Lu Ming turned and left. As he walked out of the hotel, he took a deep breath and felt as if the air around him had become much fresher.
"Ding-dong~" My phone rang; it was a WeChat message.
Lu Ming casually flipped through the photos and saw the ones Liu Wenhao had sent, along with a comment: "Is this a decent gift?"
Lu Ming looked at the photo and smiled.
It was a blue diamond, the size of a pigeon's egg, sparkling with dazzling light. It looked incredibly bright and was definitely worth over 500 million.
Lu Ming sent a string of exclamation marks.
Liu Wenhao replied, "How is it? Do you like it?"
Lu Ming: "I like it."
Liu Wenhao added, "This diamond is actually quite cheap."
Lu Ming: "..."
Liu Wenhao: "Don't look at me like that. I had my eye on this diamond when I attended the charity gala, but it was too expensive back then, and I couldn't afford it. But don't worry, now that I have money, I'll definitely buy you an even bigger one!"
Lu Ming: "..."
Isn't this showing off wealth?
Lu Ming couldn't help but chuckle and replied with another message: "So, what is President Liu planning to buy for me?"
Liu Wenhao: "What do you like?"
Lu Ming pondered for a moment and said, "I'm not picky."
Liu Wenhao: "Okay, then let's discuss this again after we get back to China."
Lu Ming: "OK!"
Liu Wenhao: "Okay, you go ahead and get busy. See you tomorrow."
Lu Ming replied with a smiley face.
……
The grand event finally came to a successful close, and the host warmly invited everyone to go for a meal.
Liu Wenhao drank a few glasses of red wine and was slightly tipsy. He leaned against the wall and looked up at the night sky.
Tonight, the moon is bright and the stars are few, filling the sky. His head feels dizzy, and he suddenly feels an urge to cry.
Liu Wenhao rubbed his temples. He felt he should cheer up; after all, this grand event was a good start for him. However, he didn't want to delve into the reasons behind it, because he didn't want to know who he was or why he was here...
"Mr. Liu? Are you alright?" came Li Jing's concerned greeting from the side.
"Uh...it's nothing." Liu Wenhao swayed as he walked to the sofa and sat down.
Li Jing handed him a bottle of mineral water: "Let me help you over to rest."
"No need..." Liu Wenhao declined, "I can go by myself."
"Let me help you," Li Jing said.
Liu Wenhao: "Really, there's no need."
The two were locked in a stalemate. Liu Wenhao's ankle throbbed with pain, so he frowned and simply sat down on the sofa.
Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief, walked lightly to him, squatted down next to him, and said, "Mr. Liu, what's wrong?"
"Oh...it's nothing." Liu Wenhao said with his eyes closed, "He's probably just drunk."
"Let me call a car for you," Li Jing said.
"No need to trouble yourself," Liu Wenhao waved his hand and said, "You can go ahead."
"But……"
“I want to sit alone for a while,” Liu Wenhao interrupted her, saying, “This is my private space.”
Li Jing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
She took a step back, turned and left, thoughtfully closing the door behind her as she went.
"Click——"
Liu Wenhao opened his eyes and looked around. His private room was a suite, complete with a private bathroom. He lay down on the bed, pulled the covers over himself, and quickly fell asleep.
I slept straight through until 2 a.m.
When Liu Wenhao woke up, he felt a splitting headache and his whole body was sore.
Chapter 961 The Toyota Gang Appears!
When Liu Wenhao woke up, he felt a splitting headache and his whole body was sore. Today was the day he was negotiating with the Toyota gang, and they had sent two of their underlings, one of whom said he wanted to give him a big gift.
But Liu Wenhao had no time to appreciate the generous gift his underling had brought. His mind was preoccupied with what had just happened.
Liu Wenhao, who had just woken up, was still in a daze. He rubbed his temples, feeling the soreness all over his body, and remembered the dream he had last night.
Liu Wenhao recalled his dream where he had time-traveled. He had traveled to the summer after the New Year, which happened to coincide with the Spring Festival holiday. He had also met a girl who was very beautiful, like a fairy from a TV drama.
However, Liu Wenhao was not blinded by beauty. He knew that this was just his fantasy and not real at all.
Liu Wenhao took out a cigarette case from his bag, opened it, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
He has memories of smoking, but he hasn't touched a cigarette in a long time. He knows that smoking will plunge him into endless darkness, but in order to regain his lost memories, he has to try.
Liu Wenhao pinched the cigarette between his fingers, lit it, took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled a smoke ring. The swirling smoke made him appear even more indistinct, making it difficult to discern his true form.
