Chapter 214: Chapter 200 Thirsty_3

Astonished at Li He’s extraordinarily beautiful face, they were also dazzled by her unique long dress.

Men were somewhat okay, but it was the women who, upon seeing Li He’s long dress, had eyes practically bursting with a thick, undissolvable desire to possess it.

The crimson dress was like a bundle of Crimson Fire, and like the color of bright red blood, with the dark Blood Phoenix on it carrying an air of nobility, so lifelike as if it were about to fly off the fabric. The stark contrast of red and black colors made it look, from a distance, as though Li He was entwined with a blood-bathed Phoenix.

Moreover, with Li He’s stunningly gorgeous face and her curvaceous, sexy figure, she looked entirely as one with the blood-bathed Blood Phoenix; she seemed to be transformed into a flawless work of art.

A figure quickly moved toward this side.

Yan Yuting, pulling Cui Tianlei along with a cold sneer on her face, came forward. Standing in front of Li He, they couldn’t see the Blood Phoenix pattern on her back. Seeing everyone captivated by Li He, Yan Yuting was confused and at the same time, filled with envy. This woman always managed to attract so much attention.

“President Li, you really have quite the thick skin, or should I say, a very strong heart, huh?? Don’t you think that coming here in a “dirty” dress is disrespectful to everyone else?? With your actions, who would want to do business with you?? Or do you feel that Tiange Group is so high and might now that you don’t care about anyone else??”

Yan Yuting mocked, her words laden with unmistakable malice, stirring up discord between Li He and everyone else present.

Before the auction started, it was customary for people here to network and chat—essentially, this was also a venue for discussing business. Naturally, Yan Yuting did not want Li He to gain anything substantial.

Her loud words attracted the attention of those who hadn’t noticed Li He before and now everyone turned to look.

“President Yan, do you not know who really has the thicker skin??”

Li He replied coldly, though she too felt a sense of surprise and doubt. What exactly did her back look like now? She had no idea.

At that moment, an elderly man with a frown on his face walked over. His temples were slightly purple, appearing somewhat portly with sparkling eyes full of spirit and exuding an aura of refined and scholarly elegance.

Upon seeing the man, the crowd greeted him with eagerness, showing great respect.

When Yan Yuting saw the old man, her smugness grew as she chuckled, “Old Master Xu has arrived. He is quite concerned about his face. If Ruguo knows you’ve come in wearing a “dirty” dress, even if you are the General Manager of Tiange Group, he won’t give you a kind look. He might even throw you out!! You’d better pray for good luck!!”

Seeing the old man, Li He’s eyebrows knitted slightly.

The old man was named Xu Botao, the President of the Penglai Province Antiques Association, a grandmaster of Huaxia painting, and an honorary professor in archaeology at Shenming University. It could be said that there was almost nothing about classical Huaxia culture that he did not understand.

The elderly man held an extremely high position in the antiques and cultural circles of Huaxia Country and was also a hidden super-wealthy individual. As far as Li He knew, he had assets worth more than a hundred billion.

His wealth could not be compared to that of Tiange Group.

Although Tiange Group was worth several hundred billion now, most of it was in fixed assets, and the Li Family only had a portion of the shares. In contrast, Old Master Xu’s hundred billion was readily available at any time!!

This man had great capabilities, and his temper could be quite big, yet his network spanned the entire country, including highly respected individuals like Elder Han, who also held him in high esteem.

He was also a well-known philanthropist, the very organizer of tonight’s charity auction event.

If Ruguo discovered that she was present in dirty clothes, given the old man’s temperament, it was indeed very possible that he would throw her out on the spot.

Thinking this, a thread of anxiety tugged at Li He’s heart; after all, being thrown out would be a huge embarrassment for the entire Tiange Group.

“President Yan, what happened? Please do not shout so loudly. We should be mindful of our image in such a place,” Old Master Xu looked at Yan Yuting, clearly displeased.

“Hehe. Old Master Xu, it’s like this, President Li came in wearing a “dirty” dress, and I don’t know what she’s trying to do. That’s why I raised my voice—after all, everyone else is dressed cleanly and neatly, and just she is so out of place. I’m worried she might be here to cause trouble,” Yan Yuting chuckled with a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes.@@novelbin@@

Indeed, just as she had hoped, when Old Master Xu heard her words, his eyebrows knitted into a knot as he looked toward Li He, “President Li, could you turn around and let me have a look??”

The older people become, the more they care about their reputation and face. Old Master Xu was no different. If Li He came to attend the evening event he organized wearing dirty clothes, it would be a sign of disrespect to him. He felt it necessary to have her leave.

With a trace of anxiety in her eyes, Li He looked at Wentian.

Wentian smiled at her, “It’s okay, just turn around and let them see, trust me.”

“Alright.” Li He nodded and then turned around.
