"Oh, if you're not afraid of becoming Yang Guo, then just accept it." Qiu Bailu said lazily.
She couldn't deal with one Huo Dongheng, let alone Luo Yan. A man like Luo Yan looked harmless, but Qiu Bailu knew that his nature was by no means so pure. It was estimated that ten Huo Donghengs would not be worth one Luo Yan.
Her brain is not broken, so she would not pick such a hard nut for herself to gnaw on, and Luo Yan has not expressed any special affection for her. It is best not to break this layer of window paper, but if it is broken, I am afraid it will not even be broken.
You can't even make friends.
Luo Yan is a person who has seen big scenes, how could he not even understand this point?
Xiang Baozhu was stabbed by her, hummed twice, concentrated on eating, and stopped talking.
City H and Binhai City live next to each other. There is a fast highway connection between the two cities. It can be reached in less than two hours by car. When Luo Yan's car drove into Antique Street, it was the busiest time for business in the street.
.
Luo Yan picked a deserted place and parked the car, jumped out of the car towards Baozhu, and pointed to the nearest store, "Huanyu? Hey, why does it sound so familiar, ah... I remembered... first
Start shopping from its home!”
In recent years, the general public has some money in their hands. In addition to depositing it in the bank, investing in antiques is also a good business. Therefore, every weekend, the antique street in H City is booming. Unlike other stores, Huanyuli
The business seemed too deserted.
The square courtyard has two entrances and two exits. On the bluestone brick wall are patterns of flowers blooming and wealth. The courtyard is very clean. It can be seen that the owner has taken care of it.
Xiang Baozhu poked her head in and took a look, and found a man sitting in the west corner of the small courtyard. She cleared her throat and shouted, "Boss, we have a visitor."
The man's figure moved slightly, and then he pointed at the room. His fingers were thin and long. Because he was wearing a Tang suit, when he raised his hand, his wide sleeves hung down, revealing his thin wrists.
There is a bright red bracelet on her wrist, with a string of red beads underneath.
Xiang Baozhu looked at the man's wrist for a long time, then quietly led the other two people into the house.
"The boss said, just look at the things and ask for the price if you like them." Xiang Baozhu walked around the room very skillfully. There were various jade ornaments placed on the treasure shelves in the room, one by one.
Be very neat.
"Won't he come and watch? What if something breaks or there's a thief?" Qiu Bailu glanced in the direction of the boss. There were so many people coming in, but the man didn't even raise his head.
He seemed to be immersed in his own world and no one could disturb him.
Xiang Baozhu was holding a jade brave and looked at it carefully. Hearing Qiu Bailu ask, he put the brave in its original position, "Other stores may encounter this kind of thing, but this one will never do it. This store's
The owner is very powerful, and he wants to take things out of his house... Hum, unless he doesn't want it any more."
"Huh?" Qiu Bailu didn't understand.
Seeing her confused look, Xiang Baozhu started to show off his skills very proudly, "Do you know the last name of the owner of this shop? His last name is Baili..."
The Baili family in City H is not an ordinary family. The wealth held by this family cannot be measured in numbers. According to legend, there is an underground palace under his family's house, which is dedicated to storing the treasures belonging to the Baili family. However,
This is just a rumor, no one has ever seen it with their own eyes.
"I heard my father say that the Baili family is an old expert in making jewelry and jade. The patriarch of their family seems to be named Baili... Baili Tong... But this person retired a few years ago because he was hurt by love.
So pitiful. I heard that the person he liked didn't like him, so he went away to avoid him. When he found the person, he was already dead. He brought the person back and invited the abbot of Mount Wutai to perform rituals.
.What are you talking about? Why is it better to be nice to her when she is still alive? Hey, by the way, the new patriarch seems to be a young girl..."
"Miss, is she knowledgeable? Is she also in the industry?" Xiang Baozhu's voice was not low. The man outside heard it and raised his head slightly and asked.
Qiu Bailu heard the man's voice was very hoarse and thought he was an old man, but looking at his appearance, she was shocked again. The man's face was full of traces of time, but his eyes seemed to be tempered colored diamonds.
, the brilliance is overflowing. When he looks at people, he doesn't seem to care, but everyone has nothing to hide in front of him.
Xiang Baozhu glanced at him, as if he had been taken an
My family is also in the jade business."
"Oh? What's your surname, miss?"
"My surname is Xiang, and my name is Xiang Baozhu."
"Baozhu... is a good name... Based on this name, I will give you a half of what the lady picked today." The man spoke slowly, and every word he said seemed to have been thought for a long time.
He must be in poor health. Qiu Bailu could hear the roar coming from his chest when he spoke.
"Ah?! 50% off? Really?! Boss, you can't secretly increase the price and then sell it to me at a discount!" Xiang Baozhu's eyes shone, and his nature as a profiteer was clearly revealed.
The man smiled slightly and said, "No, Baili's brand is on there, and they won't do such despicable things."
After he finished speaking, he ignored the others and turned around again to face the wall. When Qiu Bailu turned around, she saw what seemed to be a small jar for pickles placed in front of him...
Xiang Baozhu cheered and went into the house to pick things up. Luo Yan stood aside with his brows furrowed.
Qiu Bailu tugged at the corner of his clothes, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Luo Yan came back to his senses, grabbed her hand, wrote the word "彟" on her palm, and then pointed at the man.
This...can't...Qiu Bailu looked at him doubtfully.
Luo Yan chuckled lightly, "What he is wearing is blood jade. Its quality is rare in the world. However, I am just guessing. It doesn't matter if it is or not. Let's go in and have a look. If anyone likes it, I will
For you."
"That's not okay. I always accept gifts from you. I'm so embarrassed." Even if Qiu Bailu doesn't know the art, he can still tell that the things here are good and valuable.
Luo Yan waved his hand carelessly, took down a small box made of tortoiseshell from the top of the Eight Treasures Stand, opened it, took out a jade plate placed inside, and put it on Qiu Bailu's thumb, "Jade is something like this
, the most important thing about spiritual energy is fate. It is not the person it chooses. Even if you have it, you will lose it one day. Oh, by the way, have you heard that Huo Dongheng remarried."
The jade plate finger was already huge. Qiu Bailu shook her hand and the jade plate finger fell off her finger. Luo Yan seemed to have been prepared and caught it in mid-air.
"The wedding was not a big event, we just invited some acquaintances, and the media didn't get the news. Because I happen to have business cooperation with the Qiu family, I was also among those invited." Luo Yan said slowly, "I miss you.
You should be able to guess who the bride is?"
"I... know." Qiu Bailu said with difficulty. It felt like a big stone was blocking her heart. The small courtyard that just seemed very elegant now had the idea of destroying everything.
Luo Yan nodded and put the ring back into the box, "I guess you also know. The wedding went very well, and the witness's oath was even better, saying that the two of them had known each other since childhood and had been inseparable through thick and thin over the years.
Abandon..." Luo Yan paused, then suddenly changed his words, "But you only know one part of this matter, but you don't know the other part. Huo Dongheng has just divorced, so don't you think it's strange to get married so soon."
"That's his business and has nothing to do with me."
"No, you are wrong. The matter has something to do with you. The reason why he is so anxious to marry Ren Ying is because Ren Ying is pregnant."
Luo Yan's voice was very soft, but as soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Bailu seemed to have been hit with a stick and almost fell down. Luo Yan supported her and said, "Xiao Lu, what do you want to do, you can tell me,
Brother Luo will help you, as long as you say..."
Qiu Bailu's mind was in a state of confusion. She opened her mouth, but found that she could not make any sound.
They have known each other for a long time, and they have never left each other. If they never leave, then who is she? She is just a rich and evil girl who bullies others and seizes other men's men? Why does this story sound so familiar...
No wonder he would rather hurt himself than Ren Ying, no wonder he agreed to divorce her so readily, no wonder...
"Brother Luo, why do I feel so uncomfortable? It's obvious that I want to divorce him, and it's obvious that he has hurt me so many times... why does my heart still hurt so much..."
"Because you are unhappy, but they are happy. Because your child is gone, but hers is still there." Luo Yan's words were like a knife, mercilessly cutting Qiu Bailu's chest open, Qiu Bailu clenched tightly.
His hands and nails dug into his flesh, and he couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart.
Pain, bitterness, sourness, astringency, numbness... She tasted all the bad tastes in this world at once.
"I...I won't do anything to her...I know the pain of losing a child...I don't want to...don't want to..." Qiu Bailu couldn't continue, her face showed pain.
Luo Yan answered for her, "So you don't want other women to taste the same thing?"
"No...that's not the case. It's not for this reason that I don't move with Ren Ying. I just don't want to have anything to do with them anymore. On the day the divorce was signed, I already said goodbye to him. I said to myself,
From now on, the bridge returns to the bridge, the road returns. No matter what happens to me, Qiu Bailu, I will never ask him again. Even if I go out to beg for food, I will never come to his house...Brother Luo, why did you tell him
Me these?"
Luo Yan caressed the surface of the box. Things like tortoiseshell are highly poisonous, but they are immortal for thousands of years. They are the best in decorative collections. People can destroy everything for their own desires, and they can build new capitals on the ruins.
