Chapter Fifty-Eight: Up the Mountain
Regarding Bai Yicong's light clouds, He Manzhou felt that it was not so reliable.
Although she adheres to the attitude that there is no need to use suspicious people, since Bai Yicong has arranged everything, she has no need to raise the bar and start a new high-profile position, but the location of the ancient temple was confirmed at once, which always made her feel a little pimple. It's as if Bai Yicong knows more things, but he doesn't want to confess to her.
And what really made He Manzhou feel unusual was Bai Yicong's work efficiency.
Unlike the vigorous and resolute determination of the coordinates, his rhythm slowed down all of a sudden. He Manzhou originally took the phrase "eat and drink well" as a joke, everyone comes to Wucheng and is not on vacation, what is the strength of eating and drinking, and how good the psychological quality of the person can be so big-hearted.
Who knew that Bai Yicong said so, thought so, and did so in the end.
In the next few days, Bai Yicong took He Manzhou to meet a bunch of his friends in the antique world of Wucheng, and they had a bit of a sense of sharing each other's social circles. Those endless banquets and banquets are inevitably all kinds of hypocritical polite words in the end, and the businessmen have their own thoughts, and their eyes are turning back and forth on He Manzhou's body, which is nothing more than a deep study of her personal relationship with Bai Yicong.
Especially after seeing that Bai Yicong took care of her many times, they did not hesitate to take advantage of various opportunities to sell favors to He Manzhou, as if they could curry favor with Bai Yicong in disguise, take advantage of Bai's antique connections, and obtain greater benefits from it.
He Manzhou can be regarded as knowing what it means for capital to change the aesthetics of contemporary human beings.
Not to mention the spring exhibition of the Tianwentang Museum, it is still a matter of the antique world, even if everyone talks about cooperation, it is mutually beneficial, and there is a profit in the deep study. But across the line like a mountain, those businessmen checked their personal resumes as if they were checking their household registration, and their wishful thinking also hit the top of the Chinese painting, which really made her incomprehensible.
Seeing the Mediterranean boss holding a cigar and grinning in an official manner, Miss He was completely looking at Bai Yicong's face, so she barely resisted the urge to turn around and leave.
"I heard that Miss He is a student of the painting department of the Z country, and the head of your department is also an old friend of mine for many years, that is a talented person, I can let him take a look at it, Miss He is really talented. ”
This top hat was so embarrassing to wear that He Manzhou didn't want to bother with it at all, she just picked up the key points and responded.
"Yes, I studied Chinese painting. ”
"That's good, my friend runs a gallery, I wonder if Miss He would like to appreciate a few ink treasures?"
"No, I haven't graduated yet. He Manzhou laughed dryly, "I just want to do a good job in my graduation project, now is not the time for business things, and I am not interested." ”
The operation of the gallery is nothing more than buying paintings, since it is a friend of the local antique tycoon, presumably the store must be not small, and most of the new painters or famous masterpieces in it have nothing to do with her.
Nothing to be courteous or a thief, this debt He Manzhou doesn't want to owe.
And the rich businessman continued to chatter, saying that he was talking to He Manzhou, but his eyes glanced at Bai Yicong's body from time to time, completely figuring out what Boss Bai meant.
"What does it matter, the painter pays attention to talent and inspiration, Wang Ximeng was eighteen years old at the time, and it took only half a year to paint the famous masterpiece "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", Miss He does not have to mind the age limit, if you agree, I will let my friend arrange the exhibition. ”
He Manzhou: "......."
Help, is he uneducated because he reads less, or he doesn't know how to chat at all. Is this a curse that I won't live long, or is it a reminder of the story of Hurt Zhongyong, implying that I will have to finish playing sooner or later?
In the end, it was Bai Yicong who rescued He Manzhou. He lowered his gaze slightly, and opened his mouth decisively after seeing that the girl was a little impatient.
"The schedule after Xiaozhou belongs to me, and the spring exhibition Baiyulou will cooperate with the Tianwentang Museum, and it is not your turn yet. ”
With Boss Bai's words, the businessmen who were trying to inquire about the news didn't have to be tempted.
They finally got the official confirmation, and they felt that the relationship between Bai Yicong and He Manzhou was not ordinary.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that this sentence "Xiaozhou" is intimate and has three more points of restraint is enough to explain a lot of problems. The gossip circulating in the circle really has some realistic basis, it is difficult for He Manzhou to be Boss Bai's sweetheart, otherwise how can Bai Yicong be full of boyfriend power from the sentence "It's not your turn", full of protection and possession?
With this layer of concerns, the people who are close to the mad bee wave butterfly have converged a lot. No matter how much he looked at He Manzhou's eyes, he didn't dare to come over and talk rashly, for fear of provoking Bai Yi, who was never happy, and patted the horse's fart and then slapped on the horse's leg, but the gain outweighed the loss.
He Manzhou, who didn't know what was going on, didn't know how far he had been arranged, he only felt relieved.
She deeply felt that Bai Yicong's maintenance was really interesting, and he was worthy of being the man she fancied, and he could be regarded as a gratifying and congratulatory personnel.
After a few difficult days, Bai Yicong can be regarded as arranging the spring exhibition.
Probably because Boss Bai's reputation is too great, when his whereabouts are ethereal on weekdays, the rivers and lakes are still legends about him, and at this time he intends to leave Bai Yulou's next plan in the circle, of course, it has led to quite a big rumor.
Similarly, Miss He, who realized it later, finally began to realize that something was wrong.
No matter how long the reflex arc is, He Manzhou is not a little fool after all, even if she doesn't deliberately probe, she can't stop those rumors from drilling into her ears. For example, what is the love drama between himself and Boss Bai who are lingering and sympathetic at first sight?
Those plots that are so mysterious can be taken out to make an idol drama at any time.
Version 1, the son of the family in the antique city and the daughter of the museum director in his early years are old acquaintances, before they met at an exhibition, Bai Yicong fell in love with her, and then a lot of things happened to finally hug the beauty, so that now the baby is very good, and he does not hesitate to spend a lot of money to please the beauty.
Version 2, the girl who is not afraid of the sky and the earth is brave and brave, and she relieved Bai Yicong from the siege on Biyun Street, plus showed a lot of appreciation skills, and the scenery was immeasurable for a while. That aura made the usually cold boss Bai moved, and then took the initiative to seek cooperation, probably during the love period, and even came to Wucheng to talk about business.
The most outrageous version is so nonsense that He Manzhou can't figure out where the slot is.
Someone actually said that Bai Yicong's cousin, the merry young Liu Mu's senior sister who fell in love with He Manzhou, spared no effort to please the best friends around Gu Qimei when pursuing the iceberg beauty who was as bright as the bright moon, and He Manzhou was naturally indispensable among them. This Wucheng auction was a favor from Liu Mu, and the red line between He Manzhou and Bai Yicong was also led by him.
He Manzhou was speechless about this, not to mention that she didn't know who Liu Mu was at all, just the ambiguous rumors between her and Bai Yicong could still be related to Gu Qi, it was enough to make people speechless. People live in a simple place, how can they have a relationship with Bai Yicong, isn't this purely funny.
But on the contrary, all this was spread with noses and eyes, and no one questioned it.
He Manzhou said in her heart that she didn't know if she hadn't experienced it before, but now she understands what it means to be a tiger in three people. If she hadn't known the purpose of this trip, she would have almost thought that she was really talking about business with Bai Yicong, and she was going on a sweet love affair with the mountains and rivers.
For such a trance, she just comforted herself, there were too many social bureaus, which made her brain a little uncomfortable.
Just when He Manzhou was thinking about whether he should knock on the side and remind Bai Yi not to be full of leisure and leisure, and how much he should be busy with serious things, the unexpected Boss Bai did something that made her jaw-dropping.
The trip that has been delayed has been delayed for a long time, and in the end, Bai Yicong actually chose to go up the mountain on a rainy night with lightning and thunder.
So much so that He Manzhou was suddenly called out of the warm bed in the hotel with a stunned face, until he got into Boss Bai's off-road vehicle, his mind was still full of black question marks, and he felt that all this was too nonsense. She tried her best to regulate her mood, trying to show a hard-working posture that was quite cooperative with various plans, but no matter how much she cooperated, she couldn't stop her from complaining wildly in her heart.
This trance feeling became significantly stronger after she got out of the car.
Like now—
It was getting late, and heavy clouds obscured the afterglow of the setting sun, making the rugged mountain road even more cold.
There is no snow in the winter of Wucheng, but there is an old saying that "snow does not turn snow cold", this kind of rainy weather is really cold and seeps into the bones, even if you wear thick cotton clothes, you still feel a little shivering.
He Manzhou followed behind Bai Yicong, and as far as the eye could see, there was a barren mountain range.
Zhaohui Mountain is a wild mountain on the outskirts of Wucheng, and it is rare for people to come to such a remote place even during the day, let alone after dark. Looking at the shadows of the trees in the dim moonlight, He Manzhou really felt a little panicked, but it was not good to say that he was scared directly, it was obviously too faceless.
So He Manzhou could only grit her teeth, and followed closely with Bai Yicong, if it weren't for the fact that the umbrella eaves of the two people were about to meet together, she would have been eager to lean a little more on the other side.
On the other hand, Bai Yicong is a good and wandering appearance.
The night rain made his handsome and upright body hide in the night, and Bai Yicong wore a long black coat, and his boots stepped on the dead branches and leaves everywhere, making a crisp sound of branches and leaves breaking.
The sky was getting more and more gloomy, and the night rain was accompanied by the cold wind of winter, revealing a chill that was cold to the bones. Bai Yicong watched the rain getting heavier and heavier, held the flashlight he was holding tighter, and whispered to He Manzhou.
"Be careful, watch your step. ”
He Manzhou nodded silently, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
Probably because she has heard too much lace news, she has put herself in the role a little, so that her first reaction at this time is, can this man be a little more straight? What's the use of just telling me, according to the rumored script, I should wear a boyfriend coat at this time, plus pull a little hand in person, right?
I have to say that Boss Bai's performance is really too good.
