★ More exciting readings are here, the official apex ★
"This ...... It's too precious for me to ask for it. ”
Looking at Su Qiubai, Gu Chengya was also taken aback by Mr. Dongfang's words, and finally put all the scrolls back in the box, intending to return them to him.
If she had said that before, everyone would have thought it would be funny.
You have to know what Gu Chengya's identity is, the eldest lady of the Gu family, there will be gifts in this world that make her feel precious?
But now, no one thinks there's anything wrong with that!
This thing...... It's too precious!
"It's not precious, it's just a few words, keep it, happy birthday."
Su Qiubai smiled lightly and didn't pick up the box.
When he said this, a group of people almost fainted, especially Yuan Pengqing and a few people, who gritted their teeth angrily, but there was no way...... I want to give this kind of national treasure-level thing, but I don't have it!
Everyone else thought that Su Qiubai said this on purpose, but in the eyes of the old driver...... This thing is really not valuable, it is indeed just a few words!
Several ancestors carried seals with them, so he went out to buy some rice paper, and then asked the four of them to write one word per person, and then spliced them together, and after stamping the seal, it took a few growth values to make it old.
Too easy.
If you want to say that his gift is a fake, the words are indeed written by these four emperors, and the seal is indeed stamped by them, there is absolutely no fake!
But if this thing is real, how can anyone in the world concentrate the words of these four people on a single work, and even the seal is not missing, and finally it is spliced into Happy Birthday, Good Health, and All the Best......
Therefore, even Su Qiubai himself couldn't tell whether he was real or fake.
But the whole process ...... It's really simple! Anyway, these people are sitting there, and if you want a map of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, I can make it out.
No one was willing to mention Su Qiubai's gift anymore, and even many people had some regret in their eyes when they watched Gu Chengya put away the box containing the scroll.
Ma Dan, that's a national treasure! That's it!
But no one can say anything, people's own things, who they like to send to whom, what can you do.
Subsequently, the dinner party began, and Gu Chengya originally wanted to invite Su Qiubai to sit with her, but Su Qiubai refused.
He is not a fool, at this point, he can also sense that Gu Chengya may have some different feelings about her, so what should be refused is still refused.
Back at his own table, these ancestors had already eaten almost enough, although the waiter next to him was surprised, but Su Qiubai had to awkwardly ask if he could serve these dishes again.
Leaning on the chair, the little fat man Zhou Zile took a few bites and looked at Su Qiubai, the old driver who seemed to him to be very ordinary just now seemed to be much more mysterious at the moment.
There was no way, it was supposed to be a scene where a group of young talents showed their talents, but Su Qiubai casually forced all of them to pretend!
Where would this be an ordinary person!
However, Su Qiubai was thinking about Gu Chengya at this moment, and his mind was a little messy now, especially when he thought of Gu Chengya's eyes looking at him before.
She doesn't really like herself, does she?
Perhaps because of his failed emotional experience, Su Qiubai was very cautious in this matter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Su Xiaoxiao's opinion when he was a little hazy with Xia Rongrong.
And what Gu Chengya did today made him suddenly a little worried......
Just when the dinner party was going on very smoothly, Su Qiubai suddenly received a phone call.
It was a number he didn't recognize, and after connecting it with some doubts, Su Qiubai heard the voice of the man inside.
"Hello, is this Mr. Su? I'm Xia Xiaomo's brother Xia. ”
Introducing himself very clearly, Su Qiubai knew the identity of the other party.
"Yes, it's me."
Agreed, with some doubts, he didn't tell anyone about helping Summer, did Summer already know?
"Mr. Su, I have something I want to tell you, is it convenient for you now?"
Then, summer came again.
Su Qiubai felt even more strange, especially when he heard the panic and uneasiness in Summer's tone.
"Does it have to be now?"
Looking left and right, Su Qiubai asked.
"Yes, now, if it's too late...... I'm worried something will happen! ”
Without hesitation, Summer immediately said, and her voice became more nervous.
This made Su Qiubai a little embarrassed, and now he was still attending Gu Chengya's birthday party, and if he left, what would these ancestors do.
But for some reason, he always felt that there might be something very important to tell him on the phone call in the summer.
I remembered what Xia Xiaomo said by the river, about Xia Xia because he knew a secret, so he got to this point......
After hesitating for a long time, Xia Xia on the phone said again, "Mr. Su, please come to see me, it's really important!" ”
Finally, Su Qiubai made up his mind.
"Okay, tell me where?"
"Jiangbei Wharf, don't tell anyone else that you came to see me, thank you."
After finishing speaking, Xia hung up the phone, and Su Qiubai here was a little dazed and unspeakably nervous.
Immediately, he whispered a few words to Ying Zheng, and then told Zhou Zile next to him that he would help send these uncles back.
The little fat man agreed without hesitation, but seeing that Su Qiubai seemed to be leaving, he couldn't help but ask more, "Aren't you going to say hello to Miss Gu?" ”
Hearing his words, Su Qiubai looked back at Gu Chengya over there, then shook his head, and then walked out of the hall alone, and then quietly left the Gu family.
Because it was far from here to Jiangbei Wharf, and he happened to pass by the villa area, he first returned to the villa, drove a taxi, and then went to Jiangbei Wharf.
At this moment, in the night, the cold wind is blowing on the riverside, and I am very nervous sitting on the stone bench next to the pier in summer.
He didn't know why he felt this way, but he felt very frightened, and the secret in his heart seemed to be magnified because of this emotion.
In the past, after being expelled from the army, although he would occasionally think about it, but it was never the same as now.
After receiving the news that he would be able to return to the army soon, he felt that he could not bear it, as if there was a pair of invisible hands in the dark, ready to crush him at any time.
Therefore, after learning from his sister that it was probably Su Qiubai's help that allowed him to return to the army, he made up his mind!
Although I don't know why a taxi driver can have so much energy, it is obvious that compared to himself, Su Qiubai must be more capable of keeping this secret!
That's why he decided to ask Su Qiubai out late at night, if ...... Something really happened to me, at least there are still people in this world who know about it!
Thinking of this, Summer took another deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Looking at the empty road in the distance, he waited anxiously......
After Su Qiubai left the villa, he drove directly to the Jiangbei wharf.
His instinct told him that what he was going to say in the summer must be very important, otherwise he would never have used that tone!
You must know that in Su Qiubai's impression, Xia Xia is a man who says very little, combined with the things Xia Xiaomo said before, such a person...... What secrets are hidden?
And why did he decide to tell himself?
Su Qiubai didn't know the answers to these questions, and it was quite unsmooth all the way forward, and several traffic lights just blocked him.
This made him a little anxious, the ghost knows what the reason, and the call to Summer was actually unanswered!
Inexplicably, Su Qiubai had a very bad premonition in his heart.
Finally, he arrived at the Jiangbei Pier.
A total of five calls were made to Summer along the way, but all of them went unanswered.
Parking the car on the side of the road, Su Qiubai ran towards the dock, shouting the name of summer loudly, but there was no echo in the silent night.
This pier is not big, so after turning around, Su Qiubai has basically walked the whole way.
When he finally couldn't help but want to call Xia Xiaomo to ask about the situation, his eyes happened to see an arm in the water.
Feeling that the whole person was a spirit, Su Qiubai walked over slowly, and then grabbed that arm and pulled it up.
One of the corpses inside came out of nowhere.
When I looked closer, the corpse's eyes were wide open and full of horror!
This person...... It's summer!
