Chapter 9
"Miss Song, if you fancy anything later, please feel free. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info" The low and cold voice was enough to make many people's blood boil.
"Mr. Tang is so generous, then I'm not welcome." Anyway, the most important thing Tang Jiamo lacks is money, and I don't mind doing some charity for him, creating a glorious image, and I am very good at being generous to others.
The other side paused for two seconds and continued: "But there is one thing, I hope Miss Song must help me shoot it back." β
I chuckled in my heart, not that I didn't think that he and I were going to that painting, but I always had a fluke in my heart, thinking about what Tang Jiamo wanted that painting to do, he was so reluctant to contaminate the people of the Song family, so unwilling to see Song Kun.
"Your fiancΓ©e's painting?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the line, so long that I thought he wouldn't answer.
"I don't have a fiancΓ©e." Obviously, the cold voice is faint, but somehow there is a trace of warmth.
I quietly didn't answer, thinking: Tang Jiamo, you lied to people.
"Cousin!"
What a place you don't meet in life!
He Yue leaned over enthusiastically with a bidding number, and every time he saw him, he always looked like he was in a hurry, what a festive teenager.
He was accompanied by my dear cousin-in-law, who glanced at me quite keenly, and after sitting down in a hurry, asked me in a gossipy voice: "Cousin, to be honest, have you known Tang Jiamo a long time ago?" β
Qiu Zhenzhen, the hero behind him, glanced at him in the same way, and also looked at me with the same curiosity.
I "hehe" twice and complained to him: "Are you a woman, living by speculation?" "The sixth sense is so accurate!
"Or tell me, why are you dressed like this, sitting in his place, holding his bidding number? Oh, he's on the other end of your phone, right? "Han Nuo looked at me meaningfully, and I felt that it was a waste to rely on his observation to be an actor.
He Yue suddenly thought of something, and his eyes were filled with romantic thoughts: "Cousin, Nathan won't fall in love with you at first sight, right?" β
Han Nuo smiled meaningfully: "Who is Tang Jiamo, is it better to say that he likes men than to pass on the scandal of which woman he has, can love at first sight happen to him?" β
I couldn't help but be interested and asked him: "It is rumored that he likes male style?" How did it all come about? β
Han Nuo rolled his eyes very disregardantly, and was a little speechless about the point I cared about: "Cousin, it must have been terrible for you to summarize the central idea and mark the key points when you were learning Chinese before!" β
I expressed surprise: "How do you know?" β
Then he didn't want to continue the topic with me anymore, so he turned his head and asked He Yue, who should have accidentally met at the door: "Why did you come?" Don't you always despise the occasion where this art is defiled by the stench of copper? β
He Yue sat down by himself and said seriously: "I still don't agree with the use of money to measure the value of art, but this time it is different, this is an exhibition to mourn his deceased wife, Mr. Gu is really a romantic and long-term person, the auction items are all created by him and his wife back then, condensing the beauty of all their love, he also hopes that the person who auctions these things can get the blessing of his deceased wife and harvest a beautiful and long-lasting love." β
Looking at him immersed in a beautiful reverie and unable to extricate himself, I couldn't help but lean over and whisper to Han Nuo: "How can such an innocent boy play with you guys?" β
Han Nuo glanced at me with a serious face: "We are also very innocent!" β
I looked at him twice and realized: "It is worthy of winning an award, and the acting is very realistic." β
He Yue was enthusiastically telling the charming and romantic love story in the brochure, and Han Nuo and I tacitly agreed not to interrupt him. Those who are a little involved in the gossip of wealthy families also know that Mr. Gu's current wife is already his fourth wife, except for the first one who died young and left no heirs, each of them has left children, and various events of competition for favor and property are staged every day, which is more exciting than the eight o'clock TV series. The reason why there is this auction has been rumored by the outside world is that the fourth wife is going to renovate the ancestral house, and I think these things are an eyesore, so I want to deal with them together. Rich people are more circuitous in doing things, and they have to take care of face or something, so they found a planning company and had this charity auction of romantic literature and art. Of course, only a few media companies that knew him well reported on it, and the rest were stopped by security guards.
It is not for nothing that Qiu Zhenzhen's face is slightly happy.
"I'm also curious about how it is rumored that I like men." Suddenly there was an interesting voice in the headset, which surprised me, I thought that Tang Jiamo had already turned off the call, so ...... Did he hear all that just now?
I smiled stiffly, "Why don't you talk to my cousin-in-law about it another day?" β
"Ah Yue, huh? You're there too. "Actually, I should have thought that the place where Tang Jiamo appeared could not have Su Tong?
Things in the world are so strange, and people who have tried their best to avoid them will always be entangled by fate.
He Yue, who was sitting on my right, responded cheerfully and enthusiastically, beckoning her to sit together, Han Nuo didn't seem very enthusiastic, and politely said hello and forgot it, it seems that the cooperation is not very pleasant.
I vaguely heard the sound of "ding" from behind, Qiu Zhenzhen is really a conscientious girl.
This is the second time I have met Su Tong after three years, and her eyes are full of exploration when she looks at me: "Who is this?" β
He Yue replied neatly: "She is Arnold's cousin, her name is Song Yu." β
I glanced at He Yue and felt that the last two words of his sentence were a little redundant.
Su Tong was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a smile from the spring breeze climbed up on her delicate cheeks: "The surname is Song, what a coincidence, may I ask Miss Song is the 'forget' who forgets and forgets?" A smiling face, but there was no emotion in his eyes.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, slowly raised my head, and when I met her gaze, she seemed to be stunned for a moment, just like when I first saw myself in the mirror, a little trance-like.
"No, it's exuberant." I smiled a little shyly, took out the only reserved thing I had, and couldn't help but shudder when I remembered the way I used to speak.
Han Nuo on the side looked at me with a little horror, and was stepped on without a trace, and Qiu Zhenzhen, who was sitting behind me, also "poofed" unkindly.
I praised Su Tong without changing my face: "Miss Su herself is even more beautiful than on TV!" "Anyway, praising her now is equivalent to praising herself in disguise, and I don't feel embarrassed at all.
Su Tong smiled and said "thank you" and sat down next to He Yue.
"You're lying to her." The other end of the phone stated.
I shrugged my shoulders and replied naturally: "No, people around me usually call me that," the voice deliberately lowered a little and continued to argue with him: "You don't know this, the name is also with a magnetic field, the original 'delusional' word fortune teller said that it was too fierce, my eight characters are not hard enough, I can't withstand this evil spirit, I originally wanted to change my name, but when I became an adult, the procedures for changing my name were too complicated, so I took a homophone, and everyone called it to add some blessings." β
There seemed to be suspicion over there, and there was no sound for a long time.
I pursed my lips and went straight to play with the number plate in my hand, occasionally Tang Jiamo would pop up a few questions, and I replied without a match.
Xu I muttered a little more frequently, which attracted Su Tong's attention, and she asked He Yue beside her suspiciously: "Who is Miss Song talking to?" His eyes fell on the auction number in my hand, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.
He Yue replied truthfully: "Nathan," turned around and asked me again: "Oh, by the way, cousin, although Nathan rarely has scandals, it doesn't mean that he likes male style, and it doesn't mean that he won't be tempted by you!" β
The bidding number in my hand almost fell to the ground, and I looked at He Yue stiffly, of course, I saw the coldness of Su Tong's hidden smile under his eyes, like a sunset floating on the top of a snowy mountain, looking like a warm and warm from a distance, but it was still cold and frosty when it was close.
He Yue, you really don't know how to pick an occasion to speak, I really want to turn off the Bluetooth, but I haven't seen Ning Huanyu's Bluetooth before, and I don't know how to turn it off for a while.
I had to think about how to answer.
After thinking about it, I could only pull out a sentence: "That, that's because I'm Han Nuo's cousin...... Well, Han Nuo is the same generation as you, then I am an elder, and it should be better for me, heh, hehe, how could he be tempted by me...... That's, that's incest. "Speaking of the back, it became more and more pulling, causing the three people in front of me to look at me with black lines on their faces, and I was also helpless.
Han Nuo stroked his forehead with one hand, looking like he didn't want to recognize me: "Cousin, brothers and sisters belong to the same generation, and you and Tang Jiamo are not related by blood, what kind of incest!" β
He Yue lives abroad all the year round, and he doesn't understand the matter of seniority, but he still understands the word "incest", and when he saw my eagerness to justify, he couldn't help but pat me on the shoulder with a snicker: "Cousin, don't be shy!" β
I'm not really shy!
Seeing Su Tong looking at me thoughtfully, I felt a little sad in my heart, and I really didn't want to be entangled between her and Tang Jiamo anymore.
Tang Jiamo on the other end also seemed to have a lot of thoughts today, and concluded: "Miss Song's sense of ethics and morality is quite strong. β
I said "hehe" twice, but I didn't dare to speak again.
The pompous opening remarks that followed the soothing music finally kicked off the auction, and I pretended to listen carefully to the host's presentation, but I didn't listen much at all.
With the sound of price response one after another, I felt that art was really unfathomable, just as profound as the intricate relationship between these businessmen and celebrities present.
In order to not look so tall in front of Tang Jiamo, in line with the role setting of the supporting actress at eight o'clock before, I casually applied for the price a few times, but it was obviously not very high, and the strange thing was that no one increased the size anymore, and inexplicably endured a few hot glances, so I didn't dare to ask for the price casually, which suddenly made me want to doze off boringly.
"Your taste is very ......" The other end of the phone seemed to be unable to think of the right word for a moment, and paused for a moment before continuing: "Unique." β
I let out an "ah" in a bit of a daze, but I couldn't even remember what I was shooting.
He Yue on the side pulled my shawl, and her tone showed great appreciation: "Cousin, you are the most discerning in the audience!" β
I nodded unceremoniously: "Student He, I appreciate your honest attitude. β
Han Nuo let out a long sigh, looking like he couldn't wait to get away from the two of us.
Even Su Tong's face couldn't help but feel embarrassed, vaguely feeling that He Yue and I were very unreliable.
"This is the last lot of the auction, and it is a painting that records the fond memories of a friend of Ms. Gu Chenyu."
I don't know if this host has been deliberately "taken care of" or if this industry also likes to stir up the atmosphere, and the long blank space makes the people below whisper wantonly. Everyone's eyes were looking in my direction, intentionally or unintentionally, just curious if Tang Jiamo would take this painting.
It seems that the newly appointed Mrs. Gu is really spoiled by Gu Tianhua.
"Cousin, why do I feel like so many people are looking at you, and you know them?" He Yue, a teenager, definitely doesn't pay attention to gossip, I thought to myself.
I pretended to shrug my shoulders calmly: "I don't know, I guess I've never seen a beautiful woman." β
"......" He Yue looked at me silently, and then looked at Su Tong on the other side, and the expression on his face seemed to say: It was his eyes that were not good just now, and everyone should be looking at Su Tong.
I glanced at him, and glanced at Su Tong's side face by the way, which was as fine as jade, and I didn't feel very uncomfortable.
Hey, I really want to hate this face and I can't hate it.
Su Tong happened to look over, met my slightly obsessive gaze, was slightly stunned, I smiled embarrassedly, and quickly turned back and looked ahead.
"Nervous?" The low cold voice was actually a little softer, as if to comfort me, which made me slightly surprised, and suddenly felt that Tang Jiamo also cared about strangers when he came.
I wrapped my shawl tightly, buried my hands in the soft fabric, and pretended to yawn: "It's not my money that is spent, what am I nervous about." β
The other end of the line was silent again.
Maybe Tang Jiamo was nervous, I thought to myself, and I was a little happy.
"The name of this painting is 'The Gift.'" The moment the veil fell, I heard a thud at the door of my heart, the ancient latch "clicked" and fell, and a gentle smile stopped in front of the slightly open door.
Xuan Meng......
"Mom's ......"
