Chapter 144: Bai Anqing
Just about to enter the venue, Cen Man saw Bai Nian'an who came in a hurry. After saying hello, Bai Annian said that she has always studied the collection of antique paintings, and this time she took a fancy to the collection of several Huang families, so she came to participate this time.
The two women were chatting, and Cen Man saw a woman happily suddenly running towards Huo Li not far away, and crashed into his arms.
"Brother Huo, it's really you! I thought I was the wrong person. ”
Faced with the sudden hug, Huo Li's face was not annoyed, but looked at the person in his arms and smiled: "Such an adult, not big or small."
Seeing this, Bai Annian could only smile awkwardly at Cen Man and explained, "This is my sister, Bai Anqing." I talked to Huo Li, no, when we met, she was still a child. When she was young, she often played with Huo Li like this, you don't mind. ”
At a glance, Bai Anqing is petite and exquisite, about the same age as Huang Ailin, and has a kind of eldest lady's temperament. However, Huang Ailin is lively and innocent, warm and kind to people, while Bai Anqing is more straightforward and arrogant.
When Bai Anqing was a child, she always liked to be a follower behind Huo Li and Bai Annian, and Bai Annian was also used to her sister, taking her with her wherever she went. Since she was a child, she has envied her sister for being able to fall in love with a man like Huo Li, and her dream is to marry a man like Huo Li.
In Bai Nianqing's heart, her brother Huo is the most perfect man in the world, and after learning that Bai Annian and Huo Li broke up, she still felt very sorry for her sister.
"Okay, Nianqing, let go of your Brother Huo. Let me introduce to you, this is Cen Man, my friend, and Huo Li's wife. Bai Nianan saw that his sister was still hanging on Huo Li's body, and he couldn't help but order.
Hearing Bai Annian's introduction, Bai Anqing's heart felt like it had been struck violently, and it hurt so much. In addition to her surprise, she was also disappointed, her brother, whom she had loved since childhood, actually got married. She didn't think that Brother Huo was worthy of anyone besides his sister.
Bai Anqing couldn't help but look at Cen Man curiously, and couldn't hide the surprise on her face when she watched Cen Man use typing to chat with her sister.
Brother Huo, who is perfect in her heart, is dumb in his wife! This shocked her heart more than hearing the news of Huo Li's marriage.
Bai Annian looked at his sister and did not hide his thoughts at all, and hurriedly took her away on the grounds that the auction was about to start.
The hiccup at the door quickly passed, everyone was seated, and the auction officially began.
The competition at the venue was fierce, after all, the Huang family still had some family background for so many years, and a few collections were still very eye-catching, which made the atmosphere in the venue exciting.
Only Cen Man, no matter how delicate the exhibits were, didn't care, just waited for the pair of Liu Zhenyan's calligraphy.
Now I am photographing a pair of diamond brooches, which legend has it that originally belonged to a countess in Europe, and was later taken by Mr. Huang and bought back.
The swan-shaped brooch features a 6-carat sapphire on its head and 98 diamond-shaped wings that sparkle in the light of the stage.
Huo Li remembered that the necklace he gave Cen Man last time was the same style by Yang Meilian's stupid woman, which was really a failure.
If you give her this swan brooch this time, Cen Man will not misunderstand her mind no matter how stupid she is, this swan is beautiful and elegant, just like Cen Man, she will definitely like it.
"No. 89, six million" Huo Li entered the bid.
The big screen shows "No. 56, six million once", "No. 89, six million and one hundred thousand" After several rounds, only Huo Li and this No. 56 are still bidding, and neither of them has refused to give up.
Because it is a silent bidding, after the auctioneer introduces the exhibits, everyone bids with a bidder, and the results are directly displayed on the large screen. Huo Li didn't know who this No. 56 was, but he obviously wouldn't let go of what he liked easily, and after the two competed to fifteen million, No. 56 finally stopped following the price.
After several rounds of exhibits, Liu Zhenyan's calligraphy finally appeared: "This calligraphy is from the Qing Dynasty, the author is the descendant of the great calligraphy Liu Gongquan, this calligraphy is better than the preservation of integrity, the calligraphy is vigorous and powerful......"
"This Liu mantra is not a big calligraphy, it has no significant collection value for ordinary people, and the asking price will not be too high, but this thing is very important to the Ji family."
The author of the calligraphy is said to be a friend of the grandfather of the old man of the Ji family, and this character was specially written by him for the Ji family, and the Ji family has been circulating and preserving it for so many years. Manman, please be sure to help me get it. Cen Man remembered Ji Shenyan's words.
"No. 56, five million" Cen Man couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw this number. This estimate is only one million, and it was raised to five million by 56. No. 56 seemed to be staring at Cen Man, and he kept biting the price, refusing to quit no matter what.
When the bid on No. 56 reached seven million, Cen Man's sweat had already flowed, and this number had already exceeded the price that Ji Shenyan estimated for her, even if she took it, how to explain it to Ji Shenyan.
At the time of nine million, far exceeding Ji Shenyan's budget for Cen Man, she had to give up. This can't be blamed on Cen Man, Ji Shenyan himself definitely didn't expect that a pair of Qing Dynasty calligraphy by unknown calligraphers and painters could finally come up with such a price.
At the end, when Bai Nianan took Bai Nianqing to say goodbye to Cen Man, Cen Man inadvertently saw Bai Nianqing's bidder, No. 56, Bai Nianqing was the No. 56 who grabbed the word with her!
"Miss Bai, did you take a picture of Liu Zhenyan's copybook? This thing is very important to my friend, can there be room for negotiation" Cen Man felt that he was entrusted by his friend, and seized the opportunity to try to redeem it.
"I'm not uncommon, I don't know who this is, Miss Cen, let it be for you. I have only one request. Bai Anqing's heart was in a panic, and she couldn't call out Mrs. Huo.
"Take the swan brooch in exchange, who let Brother Huo snatch my swan brooch."
Huo Li next to him only spit out two: "No!" He was originally dissatisfied with Cen Man's help to Ji Shenyan this time, not to mention that this was a gift for Cen Man, Huo Li didn't agree.
"Miss Bai, please help." Cen Man was still unwilling to give up hope.
"Then Brother Huo asked me to go to work at Huo's, this is the last concession." Bai Anqing said domineeringly.
In the end, under the persuasion of Bai Annian, the calligraphy was transferred to Cen Man. Because Bai Anqing also regretted it in her heart, blaming herself for being too impulsive, using nine million to gamble, and keeping this useless note, it is better to let Cen Man be the wronged leader.
After that, Bai Anqing often went to Huo's and kept clamoring to work in Huo Li's company.
"Okay. I promise you", one day Huo Li finally agreed to her request, maybe it really made her impatient.
Bai Anqing was about to cheer her victory, "Then go to the special education company." Huo Li, who had a black belly, said.
"Brother Huo, you trick me."
"You said you want to join Huo's, isn't the special education company also part of Huo's Group?" Huo Li took this since childhood
Looking at the long girl, there was no choice but to say so.
When Cen Man arrived at the company today, he almost prepared to go home the same way after opening the door.
She received two gifts from Huo Li, one was the swan brooch she had seen at the auction, and the other was Bai Anqing, who was sitting at her desk drinking coffee.
Although he hadn't said a word to Bai Anqing yet, Cen Man's head was already crazy, and then he saw this swan brooch, is this compensation for me to take care of your first love sister, Huo Li, Huo Li, what do you treat me! Cen Man was even more angry in his heart, so he directly closed the box and threw the swan brooch into the drawer.
"Why did you arrange Bai Anqing to my company" Cen Man rushed to Huo Li's office so angrily for the first time, typing loudly.
"Because she makes me have a headache every day!" Cen Man was even more angry when he heard such an explanation.
"Mrs. Huo, I put such a little beauty next to me, can you rest assured? I put it in a special education company because I thought about it, and you can watch it for yourself, and you don't have enough people there, so I can help you. Huo Li said unhurriedly.
"What about the swan brooch, is it my reward for helping you take in Miss Bai?" Cen Man looked at Huo Li, who kicked the trouble to himself, angry and funny.
"That's what I gave to Mrs. Huo, I think such a beautiful thing matches my wife's temperament. You are not allowed to pull it on others. Huo Li was afraid that Cen Man would misunderstand, so he said righteously.
"Don't worry, I only have my wife in my heart. If Mrs. is not satisfied, then I will send something else......" Huo Li looked at the jealous Cen Man, smiled evilly and said softly, closed the office door casually, hugged her waist, and put her on the sofa.
A headache is a headache, for Bai Anqing, since he came to his own company, for Bai Annian's face, Cen Man still decided to teach him hand in hand.
Although Bai Anqing is delicate, she is well-organized, and she is also smart and studious.
At the beginning, she only connected with one school in H city and was responsible for the follow-up implementation of the cooperation project. The principal of that school praised Bai Anqing for her work in place, her ability to take the initiative to think about students, and solve many problems.
Cen Man simply let her be in charge of the docking and coordination of the entire project, Bai Anqing's ability to do things had to be admired by Cen Man, her direct temperament still gave Cen Man a headache, except for this, the two of them were fine.
Cen Man's biggest headache was that Bai Anqing tried everything to go to Huo Li's side, and every time Cen Man watched such a beautiful woman chirp and offer courtesy to Huo Li, he was always unhappy.
When Cen Man had something, Bai Anqing offered to go to the Huo family to help her report, and then Bai Anqing became a habit of doing this matter.
Once after Bai Anqing set off, Cen Man found a major financial data error during the inspection, and hurried to Huo's in a hurry.
"Mr. Huo is not in the office?" Cen Manzheng felt strange.
"Grandma Huo, Mr. Huo is in the second conference room, you can just go over directly." Secretary Chen guided.
Cen Man walked to the door, feeling that this conference room was surprisingly quiet, and her heartbeat unconsciously accelerated, so that she didn't knock on the door and walked in directly.
