Chapter 193: Pleasing People
"You're saying they're going to have a back-up move?!" Shu Wangyu covered his mouth, his voice raised unconsciously, and after realizing it, he lowered his voice, "I went to inquire about the news a few days ago, in short, you will not be in danger." β
Shu Wangyu's first reaction was to comfort He Qingxiao first.
He Qingxiao glanced at her, shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about me...... You have to be careful. β
Seeing the care in He Qingxiao's eyes, Shu Wangyu nodded, "I will, but the top priority is your antidote." β
"I really want to recover sooner and help you." This sentence is like a sigh.
β¦β¦
"Mr. Gu, there is an auction here, maybe you will be interested."
Just before Gu Chengze planned to go to the new jewelry launch conference, the secretary sent a VIP invitation at the right time.
Sotheby's?
Gu Chengze raised his eyebrows and turned the first page - the jewelry exhibition.
It's just with him.
Gu Chengze got out of the steering wheel and changed the direction of progress.
"Mr. Gu." There was a slender woman standing in front of the auction house, obviously a greeter, who saw Gu Chengze's elegant demeanor and said, "Please come here." β
Gu Chengze straightened his collar and answered. Sotheby's was always attentive and took him to a sofa in a short time. There is a soft screen around it, which is obviously very privacy-protecting.
The welcome lady distributed the number plate and mask to Gu Chengze and was about to leave, when she heard Gu Chengze ask: "This time I heard that there is the world's largest starry sky sapphire?" β
Miss Welcome was obviously stunned, this is inside information...... According to the regulations, she couldn't say much, so she had to show an impeccable smile and said, "Please wait and see." β
Gu Chengze responded, this is one of the unspoken rules of the auction house.
The welcome lady replied like this, indicating that there was indeed one.
Just to make such a gimmick, they usually like to put the finale of things at the end until the last minute is revealed.
The previous title is nothing more than a treasure of Sri Lanka - as we all know, Sri Lanka is the region with the most sapphire excavations, and this title is just a hint.
Gu Chengze thought that Shu Wangyu's white and tender neck, with a unique star sapphire, must be the most dazzling.
This time, the auction items are mainly jewelry, although Gu Chengze has no intention of auctioning, he is still bored holding the number plate to set the price - he is not short of money, but presumably Shu Wangyu lacks jewelry.
The penultimate piece was a gold-cut pigeon egg, Gu Chengze thought of Shu Wangyu's slender fingers in his heart, and raised the number plate.
"I said, are you here to make trouble?" The lady sitting next to him finally lowered the soft screen unbearably, and the half of her face covered by the mask could vaguely see that her face was not good, "You have been holding up your cards, could it be that the auction house found a trust to raise the price?!" β
Listening to the tone of her words, it was obvious that because of Gu Chengze's relationship, she failed to buy her favorite items several times.
"I don't know what this young lady likes, it's just that pigeon eggs are vulgar......" Gu Chengze's face was pale, and his words changed, "It's probably suitable for my wife to throw and play." β
As soon as this sentence came out, it was obviously a mockery that the person who came had neither taste nor money.
The young lady next to her had been so angry, and said harshly: "It seems that your wife is also in this nouveau riche style." β
Gu Chengze didn't want to pay attention to it anymore, he lightly tapped the table twice, and the young lady next to him saw that he didn't respond, thinking that he was afraid, and he became even more arrogant: "Do you have the ability to continue, nouveau riche?" I don't know how people like you get inβ"
"Sun Qin, Sun Guoqiang's youngest daughter......" At this time, the quiet venue suddenly sounded the voice of Ling Ling, the young lady next to her was fearless because she was wearing a mask, but now she was stripped of her true identity, and her heart was so weak that her face turned red, "Your father is still working for the nouveau riche in your mouth, you don't know this, right?" β
The soft screen on Gu Chengze's other side lowered, revealing half of his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Sun Qin was a little flustered at this time, and her red lips turned pale for a while, "You, you are-"
"Gu, Mr. Gu, I'm really sorry, it's my fault......" The manager who came over had cold sweat on his head, and wiped it with a handkerchief from time to time, he couldn't afford to offend this Buddha.
The manager nodded and apologized, and made a look, asking the security guard next to him to directly invite Sun Qin away.
Sun Qin knew that this was the big boss of his family, where did he still have the strength to struggle, and walked out of the venue with the people.
The manager here kept apologizing, Gu Chengze responded lightly, and waved his hand to let people go down.
"Mr. Gu has a big face." The woman on the other side of him laughed when she saw this.
Gu Chengze was not interested in any woman other than Shu Wangyu, so he raised his hand and pulled up the soft screen, isolating the two people.
The woman was not annoyed when she saw this, and chuckled.
This man really has character.
This little episode didn't take long to arrive, and soon the finale jewel was presented β the world's largest star sapphire, the Tears of Tessis.
Gu Chengze's eyes were burning, this is what he wanted when he came this time.
Starting bid, Β£69,000.
Gu Chengze squinted at the secretary, and the secretary willingly offered: "100,000." β
"300,000."
It's the female voice again-Gu Chengze frowned, it was the woman just now.
The secretary saw that his president's face was wrong, and hurriedly said, "500,000." β
"1 million." The female voice is clearly at ease.
"2 million." Gu Chengze saw that the secretary was already frightened, and slowly spoke.
"5 million." The female voice was cold.
The audience held their breath, waiting to see how far these two could raise the price.
If it weren't for the ban on signals at the auction venue, some good people would even want to broadcast the whole process.
"10 million." Gu Chengze lightly clasped his fingers on the table, seemingly closing his eyes and recuperating, obviously indifferent to the sudden increase in prices.
ββ¦β¦ 15 million. The female voice was clearly hesitant.
"100 million."
Diametrically opposed to Gu Chengze's calmness was the enthusiasm of the auctioneer on the stage: "Now our Tears of Tessis has been auctioned to 100 million!" β
"A hundred million for the first time!"
"One hundred million for the second time!"
"One hundred million for the third time!"
"-Congratulations to our Mr. 69, deal!!"
Seeing that the things had arrived, Gu Chengze got up, but stopped, turned around and said, "Yuan Lu, it wasn't me who fought with your sister for antiques last time, you want to take revenge, you found the wrong person." β
With that, he left the venue.
The woman was left sitting in place, with an interesting smile on her lips.
β¦β¦
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, how did you know that it was the eldest lady of the Yuan family just now?" In the car, the secretary finally couldn't help but ask. The two things that my own president did before were so exciting! It didn't take much effort to attract most of the attention, and there was no shortage of admiring glances among them, if only he could do the same someday.
"I've seen it before."
ββ¦β¦β
"Did you get the things back?" Gu Chengze asked.
The secretary nodded hurriedly, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Before...... The lady called you, do you need to get one back? β
"Not necessarily. After that, she called again and told her that Shu Wangyu was my person and that she should know how to do it. Gu Chengze said.
"Yes."
β¦β¦
"What's wrong with you?" Yin Shuran received a "face-to-face" text message from Shu Wangyu, and after getting off work, she went to Shu Wangyu's company to wait for her.
After Shu Wangyu finished explaining his work to the secretary, he and Yin Shuran both walked out of the company and said, "Let's go, go home with me first." β
"What the hell, mysterious." Yin Shuran couldn't help but want to laugh.
When he arrived at home, Yin Shuran knew why Shu Wangyu was so cautious, "You mean, this potion appeared at the door of the house like this, and the note still said Miss Shu Wangyu received it?" β
Shu Wangyu nodded, his expression solemn, "He Qingxiao also said it before...... The other side may have a backstroke, and I'm a little worried about whether this is another conspiracy. β
Yin Shuran nodded thoughtfully, thought of something again, and said, "You just call that Ye Siya to take a look?" β
Shu Wangyu suddenly realized, "It's too!" Ye Siya's medical skills are excellent, so you must know it by looking at it. It's all because of He Qingxiao's words yesterday, so that I didn't even understand such a simple truth. β
"What did He Qingxiao say?" Yin Shuran said curiously.
Shu Wangyu looked at Yin Shuran's appearance and couldn't help laughing: "You care about him so much?" β
Yin Shuran hurriedly denied it, "Doesn't I care about you!" β
Shu Wangyu saw that Yin Shuran's face was red, and he knew that his friend might not have sorted out his feelings now, so he smiled, stopped joking, and called Ye Siya on the side.
Ye Siya arrived soon, he took out a set of professional equipment, which made Yin Shuran sigh, "It's worthy of being a big doctor, it's really professional!" β
Ye Siya can usually joke, but once he arrives in the professional field, he must be serious, he has done several experiments, and then he is convinced: "That's right, it must be He Qingxiao's poison that was injected." β
He finished packing up his instruments and said, "Give me a few days, and I'll go back and dispense the antidote for you." β
Shu Wangyu saw Ye Siya coming and going in such a hurry, and said apologetically: "It's really hard for you this time." β
Ye Siya waved her hand indifferently, "The benevolence of the doctor is to save the life and help the wounded." If you really feel hard, treat me to dinner next time. β
"Then it's settled." Shu Wangyu's eyebrows curled, "Wait for He Qingxiao to get ready, a few of us will get together together." β
Ye Siya was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Shu Wangyu to be so refreshing, if he shirked it again, it would seem to be angry, so she nodded yes, "However, where did you get the potion from?" β
Shu Wangyu touched his chin and said, "As soon as I went out this morning, I was at my door, do you think it was possible that Hongyue sent it?" β
Ye Siya thought of Hongyue's unusual reaction when she talked to Hongyue before, and said, "I don't rule out this possibility." β
"But wasn't she unwilling before......" Shu Wangyu said the biggest confusion in her heart - obviously they were rejected, but now they are ......
Ye Siya's heart moved, and she thought of another possibility. It's just that it's inconvenient to speak directly in front of Shu Wangyu now, so he soothed: "Maybe something has happened." In short, now that we have what we need, take good care of He Qingxiao these days, and don't have any more accidents. β
