Chapter 64: The Gift of Love

The next morning, as soon as the sun showed a golden smile, Huo Jingchen, who was staying in the same hotel, called to wake up Lin Zien, who wanted to lie in bed again.

After having breakfast together, he suggested going for a walk at the Paris Place Hotel, located on the banks of the Seine, opposite the Eiffel Tower, a landmark of France.

Although Lin Zien was not very willing to walk, he tried his best to go under his persuasion several times.

In the cool and soft air of Paris, the two walked to the bank of the Seine, on the left side of the river, is the Île de la Cité, the origin of Paris, you can see the bell tower of Notre Dame Cathedral, the weather is a little cool, but also adds a bit of eternal vicissitudes of time.

The waters of the Seine seem to be gentler and more affectionate than elsewhere, reflecting the reflection of the roadside branches. A passage from Xu Zhimo swept through her mind, "The soft waves of the Sain River reflect the shadow of the Louvre...... Flowing, tame water waves, flowing, lingering grievances......"

Lin Zien was fusing the beautiful scenery with the words in his mind, and Huo Jingchen's long voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "When I stood on the bank of the Seine River for the first time, I used to feel very regretful, I always felt that with such a beautiful scenery, it should be two people standing here." ”

Two people, him and her...... What does this person mean? Her surprised beautiful eyes and his sincere black eyes looked at each other for a full five seconds, and there was an inexplicable feeling in her heart, unconsciously flowing, although he didn't say anything more, but his more and more focused eyes made her cheeks get hotter and hotter, so hot that she took the initiative to say that it was better to accompany him to choose a gift first.

Huo Jingchen understood that she still wanted to escape, and she didn't break it, so she smiled, "Then let's go."

Originally, Lin Zien thought that the "picking a gift" that Huo Jingchen said was just going to Avenue Montaigne or the Champs-Elysées to visit those luxury stores. Unexpectedly, after admiring the banks of the Seine, he took her into an auction that began at ten o'clock.

In this regard, Huo Jingchen explained reasonably, "My mother likes jade, especially the mutton fat jade in Hetian jade, but few new models on the market now can get into her ......eyes," he smiled, and continued, "Just before I came, I received a catalog from this auction house, and there are a few pieces of mutton fat jade jewelry in it that seem to be good, so I wanted to come and have a look." But my vision was always criticized by my mother, and I disliked that the style I fancy was not in line with her temperament......" At this point, he shrugged helplessly, "So I thought it would be better if you could help me come up with some ideas." ”

When Lin Zien heard him say this, he put his mind at ease, thought about it, and was a little embarrassed to state in advance, "Actually, my vision is not necessarily good, every time I give my mother a gift, she throws it in the room and collects dust, but one gift is not said, or I helped her get back a yellowstone seal that she lost when she was young at an auction......" Speaking of this, she actually showed a hint of happiness, you must know that the seal was originally notified by a Shibo in advance, and the father deliberately revealed it to herself, so that she could take a picture to please Ye Min.

But she ignored that everyone in the upper circle knew that gold was easy to get and Yellowstone was hard to find, and those who could use Yellowstone as a seal were all real wealthy families among the wealthy families, how could she be used by her mother who was now thought by outsiders?

This kind of negligence, Huo Jingchen naturally will not be reminded, seeing the corners of her mouth raised and her eyes curved like a crescent moon, she couldn't help but feel agitated in her heart, and tried to stabilize her mind before chuckling and said, "It seems that every parent and child has a generation gap in vision...... However, you can always understand the taste of the recipient better than I do, so this matter of choosing a gift is still troublesome for you. ”

At this point, Lin Zien was no longer polite, and asked softly while flipping through the catalog, "What kind of jewelry does your mother like?" Is it a brooch or an earring, or a bracelet?"

Huo Jingchen leaned over and looked at the catalog, and asked instead of answering, "What do you think?"

"I think?" Lin Zien was a little amused, "It's for your mother and not for my mother, how can I know your mother's preferences?"

"My mother's taste and yours' should be about the same, you can just look at the choice. Huo Jingchen curled his lips for a long time, and said very sincerely.

Lin Zien was a little dizzy, seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, so he had to accept his fate and do his duty, who made her agree to others? After studying the catalog for a while, she pointed to a lot of mutton fat jade and said, "How about you look at this one?"

It is a brooch with a unique shape, platinum for the branches, diamonds for the plum blossoms on the branches, the base and the middle are two hands each pinching a mutton fat jade, the material of the hand is also mutton fat jade, the whole shape and lines give people a very chic atmosphere. Huo Jingchen only glanced at it, and then immediately nodded, "Then shoot it." ”

Lin Zien looked at the price again, and was a little surprised, "Do you want to take a look at the others?"

"No, that's it. I trust your vision. ”

"But ......" Lin Zien was afraid that he didn't see it clearly, so he had to point to the price of the brooch, "Look at this price, will it be inflated? Let's think about it again......" Although she fell in love with this brooch at a glance, but she didn't see the price clearly just now, and after taking a closer look, she hesitated again, after all, the starting price is more than seven figures, she can't just help people make a decision casually, right?

"Zien—"

"Huh?"

"You...... Don't you believe in your own vision?" Huo Jingchen approached without a trace, and although he smiled faintly, he asked rhetorically.

Lin Zien was stunned for a moment, for the distance between the square inches he suddenly approached, and the hints that were becoming more and more obvious under his eyes.

"Human intuition is the most sensitive, trust yourself. Huo Jingchen seemed to be saying things that Lin Zien didn't understand very casually.

Lin Zien was about to say something, her mobile phone suddenly rang in her bag, she took it out and looked at it, and the caller was Huo Jingyan's number.

After going out to connect, Huo Jingyan told her on the phone with regret that his mother's asthma was cured that day, and later asked him to accompany him to Bordeaux, and after staying in Bordeaux for a few days, his mother's interest was very high, and he wanted him to leave Bordeaux to go to Nice tonight, so there was no way to come to Paris to see her.

While Lin Zien was happy for his mother's recovery, she said that it was okay, and briefly talked about the situation on her side, she felt that she would fly back to Jiangnan at night anyway, so she didn't say anything about the chance encounter with Huo Jingchen on the street.

After chatting for a while, she just hung up the phone, and received a call from Beitangmo, Beitangmo invited her to dinner, she hesitated, and thought that she would fly back at night, Beitangmo had made an appointment with her no less than five times in the past few days, although she was too lazy to go out, but as a colleague to have a meal together, she couldn't refute it one after another, right? Thinking of this, she smiled and agreed.

Back in the auction hall, the auction inside was nearing the end, Lin Zien sighed secretly, and as soon as he sat down, he heard Huo Jingchen, who was sitting on the side, ask softly, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing important, it's just ......" Lin Zien was hesitating to say that it was Huo Jingyan's call, when she heard Huo Jingchen suddenly interrupt her, handed her the catalog, pointed to a few pieces of mutton fat jade jewelry on it, and said casually, "How do you look at these pieces?"

Lin Zien didn't answer and glanced at the lots being auctioned first, according to the order on the catalog, it seems that the brooch has been auctioned, since he didn't mention it again, it means that she doesn't have to worry about it anymore, thinking of this, she looked down at the jewelry pointed out by Huo Jingchen, and said very sincerely, "Yes, in today's lot, I just look at these three good pieces, a pair of earrings, a brooch, and a bracelet, they are all rare and excellent sheep fat jade in Tian Yu......"

Huo Jingchen just said "oh", his face was calm, his eyes fell on the auction table in front of him, and he didn't answer.

Lin Zien saw that Huo Jingchen was no longer silent, so he regretted saying too much, and sat down for a while to see that he still didn't mean to speak, so he wanted to say that he would go first, but the auction ended here.

The two walked to the door, the noon sun was very dazzling, Lin Zien identified the location left and right, and just wanted to say goodbye, when he heard Huo Jingchen standing behind her say, "I have already ordered lunch next to me, you are looking around like this, do you still have an appointment?"

Lin Zien heard the strange taste in his tone, and also felt that it seemed bad for him to do this, he originally promised to accompany him to buy gifts first, but now he temporarily agreed to Beitangmo, it seems that it is a little unkind to leave him alone like this, and he is a little embarrassed, "It's Beitangmo, in the past few days in Paris, he has asked me to eat several times......

"Really?" Huo Jingchen smiled disapprerovingly, took out his mobile phone as he spoke, flipped it a few times, and dialed it out, "It's me...... Yes, good...... Just the Champs-Élysées...... Hmmm......"

Lin Zien didn't want to hear someone talking on the phone, so she took the initiative to go to the phone, but the content still came into her ears intermittently, she sighed with relief, listening to the content, it seemed that he had an appointment, in this case, can she go to eat with Beitangmo with peace of mind?

Waiting for Huo Jingchen to hang up the phone, Lin Zien just wanted to say that she was one step ahead, but her phone rang, she hurriedly took out the phone, the caller number was Beitangmo's, she just wanted to say that she would be able to rush over soon, but she didn't expect Beitangmo to apologize on the phone and say, "Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry, I ...... My lady flew in out of the blue, and this lunch ......."

Lin Zien was stunned and hurriedly said that it didn't matter, she remembered that the last time she had dinner with Beitangmo, she didn't wait for an order, Beitangmo received a call from his wife, and at the request of his wife, he went to Lingyin Temple overnight to incense, from these things, it is not difficult to see that Beitangmo must be a good man who loves his wife and Gu family, since his wife suddenly flew to send a surprise, as a colleague, even if she was released pigeons, she was still very happy for him.

Seeing Lin Zien hang up the phone with an unexpected face, Huo Jingchen asked quietly, "What's wrong?"

"The lady of the North Hall suddenly flew in. Lin Zien replied honestly.

The corners of Huo Jingchen's eyes jumped, and it was also because of his deep city that he didn't let the smile on his face collapse," he said...... His wife flew here?" Beitang's realm of lying has risen to another level.
