Vase Cannon Fodder Is Pampered By The Group Again Chapter 25.2 Cub don’t move, we’ll do the face slapping!

Lately, Shen Ci didn’t have many schedules. He spent his time at home playing games and snacking, which was quite relaxing and enjoyable.

The charity auction that Lu Xiao mentioned was approaching quickly, so Shen Ci took a taxi straight to the Lu Group headquarters. Lu Xiao had mentioned that there would be a stylist there to create a look for him.

This was the second time he was coming here and afraid of being caught by the receptionist again, he didn’t dare make a mistake, smiling as he bypassed the usual procedures, heading straight for the President’s private elevator.

They handed Shen Ci a black card, which was specifically for this elevator.

“Last time, President Lu instructed that if Xiao Ci ever came again, we should give you this card.”

Shen Ci took the card and was about to leave when he saw the receptionist girls’ starry eyes looking at him with pitiful eyes. He took the initiative and asked for a group photo, even signing several autographs for them.

The girls were overjoyed, and when they saw Shen Ci entering the elevator, they exploded.

“He’s so adorable! If I were Xiao Ci’s mom, I’d lock him in the house and never let him out. There are too many weirdos and creeps outside, they’d definitely target Xiao Ci, hmph!”

“Um, do you all remember the screenshots from the company group chat last time? Sisters, I actually think the big boss li….”

“Shh shh shh! We can’t spread rumors like that. The big boss clearly comes off as aloof. Besides, he shut down the dating rumors by turning it into a father-son relationship last night.”

“Ai-ya, you really have outdated news. Their CP is super hot on the hot search online now! Come come come, let me show you this fan edit. Raising him into what I love. Ah, it’s so sweet…”

“Seriously, you can even ship them like that?!”

“… “

Of course, Shen Ci, who was eagerly looking forward to attending the auction had no idea about these discussions.

As soon as he entered the President’s office, he was guided to the adjacent suite. Lu Xiao had already prepared his outfit and was standing by the mirror in the dressing room, tying his tie.

He looked at Shen Ci, his eyes gentle, “Put on the suit first, I’ve already chosen one for you.”

Lu Xiao often attended important events and so he had his dedicated team of top-tier stylists that were on par with the professionals that catered to the Lu Group Entertainment’s celebrities.

Shen Ci nodded and quickly went through the process: changing clothes, getting his hair styled, and applying light makeup…. These well-trained stylists efficiently completed the whole transformation in just half an hour.

Shen Ci stood up and looked at himself from all angles in the mirror, feeling quite satisfied. He skipped over to Lu Xiao happily, seeking praise.

“Little uncle, do you think I look okay like this?”

Lu Xiao, who had been sitting at his desk reviewing documents raised his eyes and couldn’t help but be stunned slightly.

It had been a while since Shen Ci dressed in this slightly formal attire. The off-white casual suit was simple yet clean-cut, tailored to his measurements, accentuating his slender waist.

His refined and elegant temperament, nurtured since childhood, finally shone through. He looked like a young master untouched by the world, and his delicate face, enhanced by the hairstyle and light makeup, looked flawless. With a faint smile, he looked more than dazzling.

Lu Xiao suddenly regretted customizing such a handsome suit for him.

“Do you like it?” He asked back seemingly casually.

Shen Ci laughed after being surprised for a moment, “Of course! That said, little uncle, you actually know my size. This fits perfectly.”

Lu Xiao sighed in his heart. It seemed he would have to protect him well tonight.

“You’re very handsome. Let’s go.”

***

However when they arrived at the auction venue, Lu Xiao found it impossible to constantly stay by Shen Ci’s side.

Those cunning old foxes were also present and Lu Xiao suspected that he was their target, so he needed to confront them directly.

However he didn’t want Shen Ci to know about these matters, so he couldn’t bring him along.

Frowning, he looked around then locked on to a target.

“Xiao Ci, why don’t you hang out with him for a bit? I’m going to take care of some business.”

Shen Ci nodded like a chicken pecking rice and Lu Xiao glanced lightly in Wei Shuo’s direction before walking away.

Wei Shuo: “….” Why did it feel as if he had just been warned?”

Shaking his head, he wrapped his arms around Shen Ci happily. “Uncle Lu has finally allowed you stay with me! When the two of you walked in, I couldn’t believe it. The whole venue suddenly fell silent, hahaha!”

Shen Ci was also happy so he asked with a smile, giving a bit of face, “Oh? Why’s that?”

“Because…” Wei Shuo grinned mysteriously and pinched his chubby cheek. “You two look so good together! And you’re dressed in black and white, just like a couple. Tsk tsk…”

Shen Ci suddenly panicked and lowered his head hurriedly to look at his outfit. The style was indeed vaguely similar.

“Wow, this is too awkward, right? How did this….” He mumbled.

Somewhere out of his view, Wei Shuo rolled his eyes. He had dropped so many hints, but Shen Ci didn’t catch on at all?

“Yo, isn’t this the young master of the Shen family? I’ve seen you a lot on the internet lately. It’s not easy to catch a glimpse of you in person.”

Someone mocked, coming over with a glass of red wine.

Shen Ci recognized him. He was Guo Qingming, the heir of a competitor of the Shen family. His family had been in a slump for a while due to a food safety scandal a few years ago, and they had only recently started showing signs of recovery.

Unexpectedly, just when they were on the rise, he appeared like this.

Wei Shuo interjected, “What, you’ve got some money to burn and nowhere else to spend it so you came here for some entertainment? But I heard that your family has been tightening its belt lately, so why is Young Master Guo here?”

This was a subtle dig at the current state of the Guo family. Guo Qingming’s face became a little ugly.

The Wei family, like the Shen family, was firmly in Lu Xiao’s camp. They had started from scratch with Lu Xiao’s support and had become a leading player in the biotechnology industry.

And since this was the case, both the Shen and Wei families were enemies of his Guo family!

After all, the Guo family had managed to turn things around with the help of the elder members of the Lu family, and those elders were currently in a power struggle with Lu Xiao, so naturally he had to lend a hand.

“Qie, I really can’t be bothered to talk to people like you. Forget about Wei Shuo, now even Young Master Shen from the Shen family has joined the entertainment industry as a celebrity? Vomit, disgusting.”

“Singing, dancing, selling talent, and smiling to gain attention. Doesn’t making money like this make you feel dirty? What’s the difference between this and being a geisha? Tut-tut-tut, Young Master Shen, you’re not here to perform today, right? Hahaha…”

He watched with glee as Shen Ci and Wei Shuo’s faces increasingly turned unsightly, feeling refreshed in his heart.

Anyway it was just the two of them here, so what could they do to him?

At most, they would curse at him a bit, but they couldn’t come up and beat him, so he wasn’t afraid.

Wei Shuo gritted his white teeth, sneered and was about to give him a piece of his mind when suddenly someone rushed over and pushed him aside.

Pah!

A loud slap landed squarely on Guo Qingming’s face, stinging like fire.

He froze, then immediately boiling with anger, he looked up to see which person didn’t have eyes.

It wasn’t known when a group of elegant women had somehow gathered around them, all glaring at him with fury. The lead woman, a seductive beauty, was massaging her palm, her eyes filled with a burning desire to see Guo Qingming cut to pieces.

They began to scold him in a cacophony of voices.

“This is the little brat from the Guo family, right? Truly ignorant! Hmph, do you think you can mess with just anyone?”

“You actually dare to speak to Xiao Ci like this? Have you asked us his fans? Anyone who dares to mess with our cub should be prepared to face our wrath!”

“Next time I have tea with Mrs. Shen, I’ll have to have a good chat with her. How can she let this cute little cub be without bodyguards?”

“…..”

The Madam of the Bai family, a chain of supermarkets, the wife of the Liu family, the leader in the paper industry and the heiress of a multinational liquor conglomerate…

Guo Qingming couldn’t even finish recognizing all of them, completely flabbergasted.

Such a group of high society ladies gathered around, he really couldn’t afford to offend any of them!

Wei Shuo and Shen Ci, who were pushed to the sidelines, looked at each other in dismay: “????”

Shen Ci was dumbfounded. These….. these were his mom fans?!
