The monk said, "I lived for 2,230 years. ”

The woman smiled and said, "Although I also advocate Buddhism, I don't believe in ghosts and gods. ”

"It's not a ghost, it's just something to do with a piece of jade," the monk paused, and said, "Madame, please have tea." ”

The sky is cloudy.

The night is shining in the sky, and it is already San Francisco in October. The trees on both sides of the street are thick and yellow, and the sky is white and cloudy, and the city is completely immersed in the beautiful autumn colors.

The blue sky, a little light, take advantage of the breeze, cold in the sky.

Butterfield, a world-renowned auction house, is holding a press conference at a luxury hotel in San Francisco, USA. The collections for the Spring Auction are announced in advance.

Hot and spicy, hee-huh, antique treasures, calligraphy and painting brighten the blind eye.

"This is a piece of royal jade pendant, with a very lingering name called Yeming, which is said to be the favorite object of Emperor Guangxu," a blonde spokeswoman said on stage: "Please see, there are two words engraved on the back of it......

A half-piece, incomplete jade pendant appeared on the display screen, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. Under the spotlight, the Pisces pendant faintly shimmers with the mysterious brilliance of the vicissitudes of life, and the half-moon shape is beautiful.

The lens is focused, zoomed in, and the words are clearly visible.

And the hole in the rope, the mysterious dent.

"Everyone, please see, the dent there, in fact, on this screen, is only half of the whole jade pendant, and the other half of it is still missing."

Nowhere to be found?

This jade pendant turns out to have a lost other half?

The royal jade pendant, the other half of which is missing, the name of this "Yeming", the word Zaiyan. is a dragon and a phoenix, there is a lingering love story behind this, right?

The people in the audience have already begun to talk to each other.

"Excuse me, can you reveal the information of the person who collects this jade pendant?" A reporter asked.

"I'm sorry, we can't make public the information of the collector, and the owner of the jade pendant hopes that we can keep his personal information confidential for the time being."

Secrecy?!

Could it be that this is still a jade pendant of unknown origin?

There was another whisper in the audience.

For centuries, the mystery of the ancient countries of the East has always made Western scholars, collectors, and adventurers eager to see, and there will be supply only when there is a market, whether it is tomb robbery or smuggling, a large number of historical relics have been scattered overseas, and how many of them are of unknown origin?

There were quite a few Chinese sitting in the audience, and everyone's nerves were tense.

Probably fully understanding people's concerns, the tall man on the stage, dressed in professional attire, with short hair up to her ears, smiled and said: "We can say with great certainty that this collection is legally held, and today, you will have the honor to see the true face of this jade pendant." Please ......."

She made a gesture of please.

A handsome man in a straight suit and deep eyes pushed the cart out with a smile, which was covered with a layer of light blue velvet.

He nodded to everyone with a smile on his face, and then opened the .......

The spotlight is transparent, and there is nothing in the glass display box.

A piece of osmanthus falls, and a piece of spring mountain is empty.

"How is this possible?" The handsome guy was completely panicked.

He grabbed the corner of the display box very out of shape and looked inside, as if he wanted to X-ray the glass box and see through it.

"Obviously, obviously I just looked at what I put in." He muttered for a moment, beads of sweat the size of beans on his head.

What do you mean by looking at what you put in here? Do you think it's magic?

The spokeswoman's face changed suddenly, and the audience was already in an uproar.

There was a handsome blonde guy who had been sitting in the front row, and when he saw this, his face changed greatly, and he got up and ran out of the door.

In the next room, there is a leisurely back of a male god. Looking at it from afar, is there this rare burly elevation, 6 feet 2, 3, 1.88 meters?

With his crisp hairstyle, Armani's dark blue suit, Perfect's tailor-made shirt, bright white shirt, and silver Swiss strap, he was looking out the window, sipping a cup of coffee.

"Vicent, no." As soon as the handsome blonde guy rushed in, he said.

"James, why are you so surprised. What can't be said slowly? The male god turned his head and turned out to be a Chinese.

It's really a man, Lang Lang Mingyue, Xiao Xiao Panasonic, a man and a dignified man. It's very calm.

Who is Erlang?

He is sitting on tens of billions of dollars, the first legal heir of the Hong Kong Jiang Group, Vicent Chiang, Jiang Wenhao.

"Nightlight, Nightlight is gone."

With just this one sentence, the calm male god can't stand.

"What's going on?"

"Go and have a look, just .......," James said, and the two of them were already hurrying towards the venue.

Just 20 minutes ago, Lumin was still in Butterfield's underground vault, and it has been lying quietly here since the handover was completed with the owner of the collection a few days ago. The three-tiered iron gates were stacked on top of each other, the electric eyes were spinning in the air, and the security guards patrolling the door were all loaded with ammunition.

I don't think thieves can get in, at most they can fly in and a fly.

A door opens, and the sky and clouds and shadows wander together.

In the dark room, the luminous light moves. It is like the eye of a well, dispersing the bottomless long-term memory.

Taiyi connects the mountains and the sea, the blue haze, and the small thatched hut is hidden in the white clouds. His sideburns were like a knife, his eyebrows were picturesque, his face was peach-colored, and he seemed to be asleep on the couch, and his hair was flying mist on the side of the bed.

The robe hung there, silent all around. He was only wearing a white undercoat, which was a little suffocating.

The door creaked, her hand gently pressed the edge of the door, she walked in, still carrying half a bucket of water, and glanced at him who was still asleep on the bed, she put the bucket down as gently as she could, not wanting to wake him.

Wiping the beads of sweat from her forehead, she walked over, lay on the edge of the bed, held her cheeks, and said as if to herself: "Qianxin, I don't know if you feel better today?" Shennong said, you are no longer in trouble, but I am still very worried, seeing that you have always been groggy in the past two days, I am afraid that in case....... After all, you are a spirit and not a human, and Shennong doesn't know if he really healed you. ”

Her little hand touched his forehead, he actually woke up early in the morning, but he was still pretending to be asleep.

"Well, it doesn't seem to be hot." She muttered to herself, then gently climbed onto the bed and slowly lay down on her side beside him.

Looking at him, his face was like a flower. A little red between her lips, as if someone had been rouge, she couldn't help it, and her fingertips brushed the red.

Qianxin, 200,000 years, we have finally returned to today. But did you let me leave you behind and go back alone?

Why are you so ruthless?

It's just a matter of taking away my body and mind, and when I hit that day, you tried your best, are you determined to die?

How can you let me leave you behind and return to heaven alone?

You know that I wouldn't be able to live without you.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, and whispered: "Qianxin, can you wake up quickly?" If you don't wake up, I'm afraid I'll have to go with you. ”

He suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms, then turned over and pressed her underneath, "Yi'er, don't say stupid things." ”

"You, did you wake up early in the morning?" She was pressed tightly, and she couldn't help but blush.

"Hmm,"

"Why are you pretending to sleep, I'm worried." She bit her lip.

"I, I just don't know how to deal with it. Yi'er, do you really not regret doing this? ”

"No, no regrets."

"Yi'er, you're stupid. You know, we've only got a few decades left to live. ”

"As long as I can be with you, it's a good day."

"Yi'er, you don't have to be like this, it's all my fault, I'm so ...... you" He looked at her and said emotionally.

"Actually, I've thought about it, as long as we don't use mana, the Holy Mother and the master may not be able to sense us, this Zhongnan Mountain is also a good place, you and I will be good here for the rest of our lives. Even if there are only decades of human husbands and wives, you and I have a deep affection, and it is better than the desolation day after day of the death of heaven. ”

As she spoke, her face turned red again.

That's right, the two of them just made a one-night husband and wife under the guise of human flesh, but after all, she is a senior sister, and he is a junior brother after all, which will make her sincerely say that you and I are husband and wife, she .......

Suddenly remembered that night, his gasp, and he was just like this to crush her under him.

Thunderbolts, thunders.

Woke up the lovely child.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew met, they won countless victories in the world since then.

How can she be shy, no, shy.

"Yi'er, you, are you really willing to be my wife in this world?"

"Well, I do." She said.

He gagged her lips excitedly and kissed her until she couldn't breathe. The saliva is shallow, the cold and cold medicine bushes, the sweet wind, and the streams and springs are misty.

Fresh and sweet, fragrant on the teeth and cheeks.

"Ah, thousand, thousand....... Other...... Oh, what is this......." She tried her best to push him away, but ran into a hard piece.

"Are you talking about that?"

He took out the piece of jade in his arms and said, "What I accidentally found when I was controlling the water, I think it looks like it fell from our heavenly disaster, so I took it with me." ”

The jade shimmers and is colorful.

"Well, this jade still looks a little familiar."

"I'll put it on you if you like?" He laughed and placed the jade on her navel, snuggling his mouth.

A chill.

"Don't." She couldn't help but moan: "You, you're just right, your body is ......"

"Well, don't you want to? Yi'er, this time, but you seduced me first. ”

"I, I, there is."

"Not yet, who touched my face just now, a pair of reluctance?"

"Ah, Chi...... Qianxin ......."

"It's called Lang Jun."

A sigh in the wind.

"Ruoxi, this bundle of spirit stones, are you going to take it back?" Man's voice.

The two of them are dressed in brocade clothes, like transparent shadows, easily penetrating the room, as if no one is in a country. Of course, they are spirits, and who can see them?

"No, I just sensed the movement of the beam spirit stone and came to take a look." Women are just dancing with water sleeves, and a mirror is full of flowers.

The bundle of spirit stones was already quietly in her hands.

The security guard standing behind the handsome guy touched his neck and said to himself, "I suddenly feel cold on my neck, is this the vent of the air conditioner?" ”

Handsome foreign guys push the cart in.

"This bundle of spirit stones is imprinted with the memories of Qianxin and Songyi in the world, and they have been in the world for thousands of years, or the accumulated power is enough." The male spirit said.

"It's just a little bit closer."

"Alas, but in fact, this method, this method is too dangerous."

"But I don't have a choice."

The female spirit named Ruoxi waved her hand again, and the jade suddenly returned to the display box.

There was chaos on and off the stage.

"Look!" Suddenly, someone shouted, "That night is in the box." ”

Luminous is really in the box.

"Oh, is it a deliberately arranged amazing plot?" Someone in the audience said.

The spokeswoman breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Wenhao also happened to come over, looking at the night light of the display case, and couldn't help but reprimand: "What are you doing here?" ”

"I'm really sorry, I just had a little accident." The spokeswoman explained awkwardly.

"Accidents? I'm handing over the night to you, is it a joke? Wen Hao was very polite.

"I apologize, I'm really sorry......"

The flashing lights clicked, and the reporters in the audience had already noticed Jiang Wenhao.

"I'm in a hurry from the World Journal, may I ask, Jiang Gongzi, are you the owner of this jade pendant?" A reporter asked a question in Chinese.

"This is the New York Daily News, Vincent, may I ask you, can you explain your relationship with this jade pendant?"

In the face of everyone, Jiang Wenhao just straightened his cuffs a little, and the corners of his mouth still had his signature faint smile that he always used to deal with the media, but his eyes were exceptionally sharp and heroic, killing the reporter's flash every minute.

"This Pisces is an auction commissioned by me." He was understated.

A man is suave, I am not afraid of the attitude of the words, tsk, this indifferent posture. Who is Erlang? So arrogant? That's natural, because he's none other than Jiang Wenhao, Vincent Chiang.

"Are you legally owned? Can you explain the ins and outs of this jade pendant? A reporter asked repeatedly.

"Excuse me, why are you auctioning Chinese national treasures overseas?" Some reporters questioned.

Jiang Wenhao gave James a look, James immediately nodded knowingly, stood up and said: "Everyone please be quiet, this is the auction launch of Butterfield, we are not convenient to answer questions here, about this jade pei question, we will arrange another time to answer all your questions, when the time comes, you can ask questions in turn, we answer in English and English, and answer in Chinese." ”

Jiang Wenhao, escorted by James and security guards, always left the press conference.

Mr. Jiang's office headquarters in San Francisco is near Union Square, a somewhat old-fashioned office near Union Square.

If there's anything special about this old office building, I'm afraid it's that there is a gallery Shangri_La (Shangri-La Gallery) he frequents downstairs.

If you're in San Francisco and have something to do with art, you're probably going to know about this decades-old store, and you'll often see celebrities coming to support you in this landmark store, and if you're not careful, you might run into a popular artist wearing sunglasses, such as Martha, who used to be the cover girl of Playboy Playboy magazine.

Married 3 times, married a 30-year-old Asian handsome guy at the age of 50, and later died of her husband and cancer, she was once known as the crane hair and childish face of the century female model, she once publicly said that her favorite gallery is Shangri-La.

In fact, Martha is really a woman with a very good story, there is a grapevine that this "Tianshan Tong Grandma" prefers to hang out with handsome Asian guys, and some people even say that her fourth boyfriend is also an Asian .........

Speaking of this gallery, the business of high art is really unpredictable, but the owner of this famous gallery said that in fact, it has been difficult to maintain for several years, and many people are really dumbfounded.

There is only one person who is happy, and that is Jiang Wenhao.

Not for anything else, just because he fell in love with a private collection of his boss and asked several times, the British boss said that the painting was a gift from a friend of his who was dying, so he did not plan to sell it. This time, he simply took the opportunity to buy the entire gallery in one go, and the price was whatever you want, on the condition that the painting was left for me. Just for a painting, he spent so much extra money to buy a store, and even the white agent couldn't help but say behind his back: "This rich Chinese man is really a stupid old hat." ”

Sweat me, okay, even I can't understand, Jiang Wenhao, are you so willful sometimes?

Not surprisingly, for this matter, Jiang Dagongzi "lived up to expectations" and appeared on the front page of Hong Kong entertainment magazines, asking him why he got involved in the art industry, and he said this: "Any business is for me to make money." ”

"Isn't buying a gallery a suspicion of being a vassal and elegant?"

"I just like beautiful women, good wine and beautiful paintings, is this holding you back?"

"Oh, no, no."

The gallery is now more like a museum by him, the first and second floors are fully open design, white and light gray main colors, simple, transparent, very geometric, and the perfect use of space to divide the wall, almost nothing, the painting on the wall is the protagonist.

Each painting is carefully placed here for you to admire, and the clerks will never urge you to buy the paintings, because they are more like museum docents.

Jiang Wenhao said: "Neil's design is really good, it really suits my needs. "Who's Neil? Wait.........

Wen Hao converted the third floor into his office, and added a fancy pool table casually. In addition to this, he kept all the employees there, including of course Mary and Madeira, who came from Italy and Spain. Fancy pool table?! Isn't it golf?

God, you heard it right, Jiang Wenhao is really not ordinary willful.

In this world, only a strange character like him can act so arbitrarily and do his own thing. Why? There's no reason it's just because he likes it, and if someone doesn't know how to play golf in the office, he'll say, "It's all right, practice hard, or you can get a few more orders." ”

He even compared billiards to a woman, he said: "Look at the color of those balls, and the sexiness of jumping up, do they make you hold your breath and blood gushing?" ”

It's really hard to design the office for him, his old friend, the well-known designer Neil, with a museum below and a billiards room above.

"You, you're not crazy, are you? This, how is this possible. Neil said.

"My request is very simple, no matter how you play on it, the car is good, hehe, the gallery can't be affected, the rest is up to you." Jiang Wenhao replied with a smile.

This goes against the established play design and lets this talented Chinese designer accompany you crazy, and it seems that only Jiang Wenhao can coerce his old friend to do it. Neil's design talent is naturally shocking, and he has won a basket of various awards.

Wen Hao laughed at him, "But you are like this, like a teapot with a big belly, you can't say it if you have a mouth, you can only draw on that paper!" ”

Talented and beautiful, he looks sorry, black and chubby, short and short, and a little stammering when he speaks, people in their 30s have never had a girlfriend, no, not no.

"In vain, you've been messing around with me all day long, why can't you even mix a girl?"

"I, I'm different from you."

"Cut, what's the difference, in fact, it's the same way, I still laugh at you, I'm not also a loner, haha."

Of course, Wen Hao knows, many people think that although Neil is talented, he has a withdrawn personality and doesn't like to socialize, but in fact, few people know the truth.

He's a little bit of a problem in that regard, and he can't do anything, so he avoids women all day long.

It's said to be a psychological disorder.,I've done a lot of psychological counseling.,It doesn't seem to be useful.,He's a pretty female psychiatrist.,And instinctively resisted.。 I heard him say that he recently changed a psychiatrist for online consultation, which did not meet, only chatted, but it had some effect on him.

Wen Hao also knew that he had recently fallen in love with a well-known female model called Yujin, and he actually had feelings for others.

It's a lot of fun.

Neil was in charge of designing the new hotel Xinzhang, and he was naturally the guest of honor, and the newly famous model was the guest of the host's invitation. The afternoon is over, and the routine is to eat, drink, and have fun. In other words, Neil left early in the morning, and he knew that he was the worst to socialize and be lively. But that day was strange, the host, the big boss of the hotel, was polite, and he actually said: "Okay." ”

Even the few people around who knew about this quirk designer were stunned.

Not for anything else, just because the female model touched his arm with a wine glass just now, and said, "Great designer, did you design the decoration of this hotel?" ”

Somehow, he was slow to respond to women, and his heart actually rippled. Only then did he see her appearance clearly, her skin was white and bright, her pink cheeks were pink, her eyelashes were curved, her eyes were deep, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curled with a smile, he was stunned for a moment, and only replied: "Oh." ”

"Really talented." She smiled again, he had lost three souls, and when she came to her senses, she had already twisted her graceful waist, and that room was gone.

He was distracted for a while, so he sent the ghost to eat wine and sing together.

At the wine table, he encountered the most embarrassing thing in his life, yes, the most embarrassing, not one. I probably saw that the host had arranged for the female model to sit next to him very considerately, which was worth it, he, but he had never let a woman get so close to him. But this time, it was about the psychological counseling that made him think that he had made some progress, and for a while, he really liked the heartbeat of this beauty on the side, and the red wine added fragrance.

These people are still playing really well, and the female model doesn't know when she actually sits on the edge of his lap and persuades him to drink, and he only feels a dry mouth.

I couldn't drink enough, but after a few drinks, my face turned a little red. After three rounds of drinking, someone coaxed: "Miss Yujin, if you lose this game, let our designers kiss you." ”

"And what if I win?"

"If you win, kiss him," laughed haha.

"Okay," the female model named Yujin is probably used to seeing scenes, and she is very calm.

She really guessed that she had won, so she boldly pulled him by the collar and leaned over to kiss him, and at that moment, he was probably crazy.

Yu Jin was stunned, then got up calmly, pretended to take the wine glass on the table, made a noise, and splashed the wine on him, and then smiled coquettishly: "Big designer, I'm really sorry, it seems that I really drank a little too much today, and this wine glass can't be held steadily." ”

He was grateful to her for cleverly relieving him, but he was still ashamed that day, and found an excuse to run away.

"Cut, what a great opportunity you wasted, you should take her directly to the hotel and try it with her." Wen Hao laughed at him.

"No, it's not good, just in case, in case that ......"

"Then find a chance to ask her again."

"I'm afraid that I'm not going to be able to do that, that, and that."

"I can be fainted to death by you."

On this day, Jiang Wenhao sat in the gallery's cabinet after an afternoon meeting, and he let Mary or Madeira greet the guests who came in. As long as they say hello warmly, these old guests will walk around the museum-like gallery quietly a few times, they may ask two questions, but they are also soft-spoken, as if they are afraid of alarming the beautiful characters in the paintings, disturbing the dreamlike scenery.

James, the assistant, suddenly walked in, sat down, and smiled mysteriously. With this expression, Jiang Wenhao knew at a glance that there must be no good thing.

Compared to the average white boy, James is a little small, but he has the perfect face of an ancient Greek beautiful boy.

Not only is he fluent in French and English, but he can also speak Chinese, which sounds quite pure, and even a small amount of Cantonese, and he studied Asian culture and Chinese when he was a university student in San Francisco.

Many years ago, he met Vincent Jiang Wenhao, who was studying business management at Stanford, and the two hit it off at a friend's party. In this way, he was naturally recruited by Jiang Wenhao, and concurrently served as the company's executive director, and was actually Jiang Wenhao's closest assistant.

Jiang Wenhao joked: "I don't have a woman in my life who can't live without, but there is a man I can't live without, and that's James." ”

Don't be surprised if you see Jiang Wenhao speaking fluent English while James answers in authentic Chinese, because that's the most interesting conversation style of these two.

"Hi, Vincent," James suddenly smiled strangely, took out a pink letterhead from his pocket and still put it on the table, then he scratched his head and said, "Beauty, I don't think you can run away this time."

The author has something to say: There are always editors who ask me, what kind of writing are you good at, and I say love.

I mean, what are you good at writing? For example, the queen's text, the president's text, the crossing text, the farming text? Editor's emphasis.

I thought about it, guessed and guessed, but I still didn't understand what kind of article I wrote.

I'm really sorry, I'm just a novice, and I don't understand Internet routines in vain.

Okay, I'm in a hurry, I have to say, what I wrote is a love pounce article.

An original, welcome to watch.

Yesterday, there was an explosion of 1000+ recommended votes, and I am really scared in vain, thank you here.

That's why I put the author's words in the article, and I will explain that it is because I found that various piracy websites will not forward this novel without authorization, and will not forward my author's words. Personally, I think it's very important for my author, it's an intimate communication between me and the reader, so it's better for me to be generous, and you can steal it together. My readers are not wrong, no matter which site you read this novel on, as long as you like it, you will love you for nothing. But remember to come to the starting point, this is the first start of the network.
