"Hehe, Brother Longlong is really joking, it's just a book, how can its value be compared with ancient paintings. You know, this "Tang Bohu Self-Portrait" is a genuine work. ”

Seeing Huo Long looking at him expectantly, for fear that he would not accept it, Miao Ruolan smiled, "Otherwise, let me keep it for Brother Long Long temporarily." I'll send it to you whenever you need it. ”

"Custody?"

Huo Long was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Okay, listen to you, keep it." Hehe. ”

He smiled on his face and whispered softly in his heart, "Ruolan, in the future, what you want to keep is not just this painting, everything in the Huo family will be kept by you..."

Miao Ruolan took the scroll and smiled happily.

At this moment, she seemed to see her grandfather in heaven with a kind smile and looked at it with relief.

Poor Huang Jiani was stunned on the spot.

Originally, she thought that Huo Long was going to give her the painting.

Behold...

face, was beaten too hard.

It's embarrassing.

She Huang Jiani, but the dignified lady of the Beihai wealthy Huang Group, was slapped in the face like this.

At this time, Huang Jiani's face was white for a while, red for a while, not standing, not sitting.

If you are an ordinary person, you must want a crack to pop up in the ground and quickly get into it.

However, Huang Jiani is unusual after all. strongly suppressed the shame in her heart, and after some quick judgment, she came to the conclusion: Miao Ruolan and "Brother Long" have not known each other for a long time, but the relationship between the two is unusually fast.

"This slut, I just met someone, and I actually gave gifts, I really underestimated this Miao Ruolan." Huang Jiani was resentful in her heart and gritted her teeth, "The man I fancy is, you dare to rob me, you are looking for death." ”

When she turned her face to look, she was even more angry and couldn't control herself.

I saw that the picture scroll had been unfolded, and Huo Long and Miao Ruolan were admiring:

"Brother Longlong,"

Miao Ruolan smiled and pointed to the inscription on "Tang Bohu's Self-Portrait", "This sentence 'Standing cone Mo laughs at poverty and landlessness, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are born' is an untitled poem by Tang Bohu, indicating his state of mind after experiencing the imperial examination fraud case." Actually, there are four lines in this poem, and these are the last two lines. Do you know the first two sentences? ”

"I don't know, you tell me." Huo Long smiled happily.

Ten years ago, in the library, it was the same, the two snuggled up, enjoying the wonderful content of the book together.

The first two sentences are, the first place in the imperial capital, rampant and lying in the old Mao. Tang Bohu is talented and can be called the first in the world, but he made a wrong step and has never had a chance with officialdom. I can't eat enough, so I can only make a living by selling paintings. ”

"Officialdom is just one less official, but it has achieved a generation of artists. If there is a loss, there will be a gain. Huo Long sighed slightly.

At this moment, he thought of himself.

If it weren't for the man-made disaster ten years ago, if there was no tragic death of his parents, then he would still be a playboy in the Huo family who doesn't know what sorrow is.

It was precisely because of that great stimulation that his inner potential was stimulated, and driven by a strong desire for revenge, he became who he is today.

"Life is so wonderful, it often makes you taste the sweetest honey when you feel the most bitter..."

Huo Long muttered to himself, his hand involuntarily touching the other party's head. This action was completely subconscious, and even he didn't know it.

"This..."

Miao Ruolan looked at each other in surprise again, the same action, the same him ten years ago, that's it... It was a long-forgotten past, and it was an unforgettable and warm memory.

Huo Long suddenly realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly retracted his hand, "I'm sorry... I—I didn't mean to. ”

This warm scene was seen by Huang Jiani, and suddenly, an indescribable jealousy with jealousy surged into her heart, "Miao Ruolan, you dare to show affection with my Huang Jiani's male god in front of me, you are dead." ”

At this moment, she gritted her teeth, and a vicious thought appeared in her mind.

"Brother Longlong, it's time for me to go back."

Miao Ruolan said goodbye to Huo Long. She had already felt Huang Jiani's hostile eyes, the other party had already regarded herself as a rival in love, and there was no need to stay in this place longer. Of course, she was not afraid of the other party, but felt too embarrassed. The incomprehension and questions in my heart, keep it for the future and communicate with "Brother Longlong".

"Okay. I'll send you. ”

Completely ignoring Huang Jiani, Huo Long and Miao Ruolan walked out of the auction hall of the Emperor Building, took the elevator down, and walked out of the hall door on the first floor.

A black sedan stopped on the side of the road, and when he saw Huo Long coming out, Tong Xiaowu hurriedly got out of the car and walked over quickly.

"Brother Long, the auction is over?"

"It's over. Xiao Wu, you send Miss Miao back. ”

"Oh, no." Miao Ruolan pointed to a small red car parked in the distance, "I have my own car." Thank you Brother Long Long for your kindness. ”

"Well, stay safe on the road."

Huo Long watched Miao Ruolan enter the red car, and did not retract her gaze until she started the car and left.

This scene was seen by Tong Xiaowu, and he couldn't help but show curiosity on his face. As the king of a foreign land, Brother Long has always been high, with an independent temperament, and even more ruthless, how could he ever show such a gentle side?

During the whole process, there was a person who was pitiful and lonely. She is Huang Jiani.

Huo Long's love for Miao Ruolan was seen by her, and she was even more determined to get rid of her rival from the male god. If she already had a sinister and vicious idea in her head just now, now that the idea has taken shape, she thought of a plan to ruin Miao Ruolan's reputation.

"Brother Long, people are leaving too. In the future, please contact us often. Although she was jealous in her heart, Huang Jiani had a charming smile on her face, and she didn't see the slightest sense of loss.

Huo Long smiled indifferently and responded, "Okay." ”

Seeing Huang Jiani drive away, Tong Xiaowu showed a strange expression on his face, "This woman is a little interesting." ”

"Honorable sir, please come with me to go through the closing procedures."

A man in a tuxedo appeared in front of Huo Long, he was very polite and his demeanor was extremely respectful, "I am the financial advisor of the Jinbang Auction House, please come with me." ”

"Little Five, you can do it."

"Okay."

Soon, the auction and delivery procedures for "Tang Bohu's Self-Portrait" and the Huo family's courtyard house were completed, and Huo Long whispered to himself, "The Huo family's mansion is back..."

He put his hands behind his back and looked into the distance, his gaze shining brightly. The repossession of the old mansion means that the recovery of the Huo family has begun, and the parents will be relieved when they see the spirit of heaven.

"Brother Long, now that we have a home, there is no need to stay in the Furama Hotel, right?"

"Yes, I have a home..."Huo Long muttered in a low voice, once upon a time, he fantasized about being able to return to Beihai and his former home from that bloodthirsty foreign world. At this moment, the wish finally came true.

"Sir, this honorable sir,"

Just when Huo Long was about to follow Tong Xiaowu out of the hall on the first floor, suddenly, the big golden tooth ran over from the hall on the first floor, panting, and when he arrived at Huo Long, he bowed ninety degrees, "In the VIP hall of the Emperor Building, a banquet has been prepared, and I hope that Mr. can give face to the next one." ”

Seeing Tong Xiaowu standing beside Huo Long, he immediately said, "The one in leather clothes should be with Mr., then invite the two of you to the banquet together." ”

Huo Long's performance at the auction had already convinced Jin Daya, and he immediately decided to get acquainted with the other party after the auction ended. And after that, there are things that he has to deal with. He was worried that Huo Long would leave, so he hurriedly chased him out after he finished his hurry.

Fortunately, Huo Long hasn't left yet. After Jin Daya breathed a sigh of relief, he invited the other party.

"Invite us both to dinner?" Huo Long was stunned, "Why?" ”

"At today's auction, if it weren't for Mr. to save face for me, I would have no place to bury my Jindaya and Jinbang Auction House."

Jin Daya's face was full of gratitude, and his tone was very sincere, "For me, sir, you are a noble person and a living bodhisattva." Prepare a little light wine below to express your gratitude. ”

"You're welcome." Huo Long smiled indifferently. He knew that the other party was because the Taoist chief of the three precepts said that the jade embroidered shoes were hoodoos, and he let the Taoist priest show his appearance in public to find face for Jin Daya.

"It's a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning."

Seeing that Huo Long was about to leave, Jin Daya was anxious, and he bowed ninety degrees again, "I can't hide it, there is another very important thing to tell Mr. So... I hope Mr. can give face in the next one. ”

Seeing Jin Daya again and again, Tong Xiaowu smiled, "Why don't you just have a meal?" Brother Long, since this manager is sincere, just give him a face. It just so happens that I'm hungry, hee-hee. ”
