Chapter Eighty-Nine: Blame Me for Killing You

This charity banquet was organized by Beicheng ZF.

The banquet was held in the banquet hall on the first floor of a five-star hotel, and those who could be invited were all rich and powerful lords in Beicheng.

When Su Mian appeared at the door of the banquet hall with Zhong Nanshu's arm, the originally lively hall slowly quieted down.

Everyone's eyes gathered, this was the first time Su Mian had participated in this kind of scene.

Being stared at by so many people, she immediately became nervous.

Zhong Nanshu seemed to sense her nervousness, raised his hand, took her hand from his arm, and wrapped it in the palm of his hand.

He whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid. ”

His palms were big and hot, and she was wrapped in his palms.

Suddenly, the tension dissipated a lot.

Taking a deep breath, she tugged at the corners of her lips and smiled lightly.

Zhong Nanshu glanced at her, holding her hand, and the speed on his feet matched hers, slow but elegant.

Soon, people gathered around.

Zhong Nanshu stopped, and the hand that was holding her let go and hugged her slender waist instead.

Perhaps afraid that others would touch her, Zhong Nanshu took her half in his arms.

Su Mian didn't move, just stayed by his side obediently, listening to him and those people say some polite words on the scene, detached and polite.

Someone looked at Su Mian and asked with interest, "It's rare to see Zhong always bring a female companion, don't you want to introduce us to this beautiful lady today?"

Zhong Nanshu raised his eyes and glanced at the other party, and then lowered his eyes to look at the quiet and well-behaved girl beside him.

Her eyes were deep, and her thin lips were slightly opened, "Her name is Su Mian." ”

Simple four words, only her name was said.

But let everyone know that this girl named Su Mian is definitely not simply Zhong Nanjun's female companion.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the charity banquet officially began.

Everyone went to another auction hall, where four precious antiquities will be sold tonight.

At that time, all the money from the auction will be donated to the poor and backward mountainous areas to build schools and daily supplies.

Su Mian followed Zhong Nanshu to sit in the best position in the audience, looking at the auction table above, and his eyes widened with curiosity.

The auction she had only seen on TV before.

She had never even seen a tall auction like today's on TV.

I was expectant and curious.

What she expects is that she has always been very interested in ancient things, and feels that those treasures left by her ancestors who have been precipitated and circulated for thousands of years have a mysterious power in themselves.

Soon, the first lot was taken.

It is a calligraphy and painting, a painting by a master in the Ming Dynasty, with a starting price of 400,000 yuan.

Although Su Mian doesn't know calligraphy and painting, the paintings of the masters of the Ming Dynasty have a minimum of one million, right?

The auction began, and soon someone shouted the bid, 500,000.

Then there were 600,000, 700,000, 800,000......

The bidding was fierce, and Su Mian watched the painting soar from the starting price of 400,000 yuan to 2 million.

In the end, she didn't pay attention to being photographed by someone, and she only sighed in her heart......

The world of rich people, she, a poor person, really doesn't understand.

She stole a glance at the man sitting next to her, and from the moment he sat down, he hadn't spoken.

Looking at the auction table with deep eyes, he didn't seem to be interested in the calligraphy and painting just now, and he was still indifferent to the fierce bidding of others.

A second lot was also presented.

This is a cloisonnΓ© enamel color plate incense burner, a treasure of the Qing Dynasty, with a starting price of 800,000 yuan.

Su Mian looked at the incense burner and couldn't help but think, the Qing Dynasty royal use?

Which emperor of the Qing Dynasty used it?

Is it Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng or Qianlong?

Because he just watched a time-traveling drama a few years ago, Su Mian liked Emperor Yongzheng in it very much.

She couldn't help but fantasize about whether this could be Yongzheng's use......

She was cranky here, and the bidding was fierce.

In the end, it was won by a person for a high price of four million.

When Su Mian heard this price, he couldn't help but want to go back and see who was so rich.

Unexpectedly, as soon as her head was tilted back, a big hand suddenly reached over and clasped the back of her head.

In the next second, Zhong Nanji's deep voice came, "Sit honestly, don't move." ”

......

Su Mian raised his eyes to look at him, then sat up straight, and looked at the auction table again.

The third lot was presented, a Song Dynasty rosewood Taishi chair.

Su Mian looked at the chair and laughed, can I still sit on this chair after I bought it?

I'm afraid no one wants to shoot it!

But in the end, the chair became the target of many people's bidding, with a starting price of 500,000 yuan, and finally 3 million yuan.

Su Mian felt that following Zhong Nanji this time was really an eye-opener.

The last piece, and the finale, is an ebony hairpin.

What is amazing is the budding white magnolia at the top of the hairpin, green and white color, and the inside is a tender yellow stamen.

Su Mian's eyes straightened when he saw it.

The eyes are full of amazement.

It's beautiful!

Zhong Nanshu raised his eyes and glanced at her lightly, just as the auction began.

The starting price of 600,000 soared all the way to 4 million.

When the price is stuck at four million, no one dares to raise a card again.

When the host hits the hammer and shouts, "Four million once, four million twice......"

Suddenly, a deep and mellow voice interrupted the host's shouting, "Five million." ”

The voice came from the side.

Su Mian tilted his head and looked at Zhong Nanshu who was holding a bidding card beside him, a little surprised.

She also thought he wasn't interested in what was going on at the auction.

It turned out that he had been waiting for the hairpin.

Does he have a hobby of collecting women's hairpins?

It's a very special hobby.

......

After the auction, the hotel prepared a sumptuous banquet for the guests in the restaurant.

But Zhong Nanshu didn't stay to eat, and after leaving the hotel with Su Mian, he personally drove and took Su Mian to a private restaurant.

This private restaurant is in the depths of an alley, and Su Mian followed Zhong Nanshu, wearing a dress and stepping on seven-inch high heels.

Finally stopped in front of a half-hidden wooden door, Zhong Nanshu directly reached out and pushed the door open, and walked in.

Su Mian followed, and after entering, he found that there was a cave inside.

The courtyard is very large, surrounded by cloisters, mountain stones, green bamboo, and various flowers constitute a quiet and elegant landscape painting.

It's quiet, with occasional voices and whispers, without a hint of noise.

A young man in a cloth coat greeted him, raised his hand and bowed to Zhong Nanshu and Su Mianxian, "Mr. Zhong, are you here, old position?"

"Hmm. ”

"Your side, please. ”

The young man led the way in front, and Zhong Nanjun walked behind.

After walking a few steps but stopping, looking at Su Mian, who had fallen a few steps, he didn't speak, and waited quietly for her to come to him.

Reached out and took her little hand, wrapped it in the palm of her hand, and led her slowly towards the front.

Su Mian struggled and whispered, "You let go." ”

Zhong Nanshu still held her little hand, and her voice came in a low voice, "It's not easy to walk here, I'm afraid you'll fall." ”

Su Mian, "......."

wants to take advantage of her, and makes such a lofty excuse.

This hypocritical man!

I didn't struggle at all, so I let him lead me, went all the way to the corridor, and stopped after walking for a while.

The young man stood in the doorway, holding two pairs of cloth shoes.

A pair of blue-gray and a pair of emerald blue.

Zhong Nanshu stretched out his hand to take it and handed the emerald blue one to Su Mian.

Su Mian looked at the cloth shoes, and his clear eyes were confused.

What's to be done?

Zhong Nanji glanced at her, "Put it on." ”

"Oh. ”

Su Mian stretched out his hand to take it, holding the shoes in one hand and the skirt of the dress in the other, and sat on the stool specially prepared for the guests to change shoes.

She set her cloth shoes aside and bent down, trying to take off the high heels on her feet.

Before his hand touched his shoe, a person suddenly squatted in front of him.

She was about to raise her eyes to see when a large hand reached over and grabbed her ankle.

Su Mian was startled, and subconsciously wanted to retract his feet, but the other party grabbed it too tightly.

It hurt to catch her.

Xiu frowned slightly, she looked at him, with a red little face but didn't dare to say too loudly, "What are you doing?"

Zhong Nanshu ignored her and took off the high heels on her feet.

The white feet were no bigger than the palm of his hand.

Zhong Nanshu took a deep breath, resisted the urge to play carefully, and put the two white tenders into the cloth shoes.

When he was done, he pulled her up from the stool and carried her into the box.

The young man who was guarding the side immediately handed over the menu, and Zhong Nanshu didn't ask Su Mian's opinion, and ordered the dish directly.

After the young man took the menu and left, Zhong Nanshu raised his eyes.

He looked at Su Mian, who was sitting opposite, his eyes were a little dark, "I don't know if you're wearing a dress?"

As soon as she was outside to change her shoes, she bent down and had an unobstructed view of the scenery on her chest.

Su Mian was slightly stunned, and then reacted to what he said.

As soon as her little face was hot, she pouted, twisted her face to the side, and whispered back, "I'll pay attention next time." ”

Zhong Nanshu glanced at her, didn't say anything more, picked up the small teapot on the side and poured her a cup of tea.

He handed the tea bowl to her, "Taste it." ”

Su Mian glanced at him and reached out to take the small blue and white porcelain tea bowl he handed over.

I put it on my lips and took a sip lightly, my eyes lit up, and I couldn't help but praise, "It's very fragrant, what kind of tea is this?"

Zhong Nanshu took the tea bowl from his lips and looked up at her, "This is not tea." ”

"What is it?"

"Dandelion. ”

Dandelion?

Su Mian was very curious, and immediately took another sip.

I took a sip and really drank a hint of bitterness.

She couldn't help but admire, "The faint bitterness is more of a fresh fragrance, which is delicious." ”

Zhong Nanshu raised his eyes to look at her, and said lightly, "Clear the heat, dispel the fire." ”

Su Mian immediately picked up the teapot and filled his cup.

Then say to him, "Drink more." ”

I love to lose my temper when I have nothing to do, and I am too angry.

This dandelion is just right for him.

Zhong Nanshu took a sip of the tea bowl, then put it down, but the fingers holding the tea bowl did not leave, and played with it gently.

He didn't look at her, and his thin lips were lightly opened, "Blame me for killing you?"

For some reason, Su Mian actually heard a hint of pampering from his light voice.

It's as if she's his vexatious ...... Little girlfriend.
