Chapter 174 I want to hold her in my arms

 Xu Yanqing did not look at Liu Junyan, but her eyes fell on Gu Xiyan.

This was the first time he saw Gu Xiyan wearing a bright red dress. Her appearance was already too grand, but now under the red makeup, she looked more delicate than a flower.

When he met Gu Xiyan's watery eyes, his heart trembled slightly.

The moment Zhou Mu saw Gu Xiyan, his eyes were fixed and he couldn't look away from her face.

The girl in front of him was wearing a red dress, with a slender waist. She stood not far away looking at him and smiling.

Her complexion is snow-white, and her lips are like fire, just like a peony in full bloom. It makes people want to pluck her off, so they can only watch it by themselves.

His Adam's apple rolled, and unfamiliar emotions surged like a tide. He wanted to hold her in his arms and bully her...

Gu Xiyan blushed at Zhou Mu's dark eyes. She glared at him slightly angrily, and then Zhou Mu came back to his senses.

He found that Xu Yanqing was also looking at Gu Xiyan, and his mood suddenly became less happy.

He coughed lightly, and Xu Yanqing pretended to be calm and looked away, returning to normal.

"Miss Gu is also here to participate in the food festival?" He walked up to Gu Xiyan and said as if nothing had happened.

After all, seeing her happy made him content.

"There is a happy event in Jixiang Tower, how can I be left out?" Gu Xiyan said and looked at Zhou Mu, fearing that he would be angry.

There seemed to be nothing wrong with his expression. It seemed that he would not be surprised that she would appear in Jixiang Building.

"Do you want to sit together?" Xu Yanqing asked.

"No, I will sit with my four sisters." Gu Xiyan politely declined.

Xu Yanqing had no choice but to sit down on the other side with Zhou Mu.

At this moment, Su Ho's voice sounded from downstairs: "One hundred taels!"

Gu Xiyan heard Su Ho's voice, stood in front of the window and looked, and saw Su Ho downstairs.

What's interesting is that Su Mei also came and saw Su He making an offer: "Third sister, I'm short of money, can you take me up?"

Su Ho secretly looked down on Su Mei's petty arrogance, but Su Mei spoke up in public. How could she refuse in such a grand manner?

She has to maintain her reputation outside the home. After all, she is Zhou Xing's woman.

Little did she know that Su Mei had already figured out her temperament and deliberately asked her in public because she was sure that she was vain and hypocritical and would not refuse in public.

Coincidentally, the Su sisters had just entered Jixiang Building, and Xu Yongqian also came.

Xu Yongqian's eyes fell on Su Ho, and he looked at him intently. Just as Su Ho turned around, their eyes met in the air.

Su Mei looked back at the two people whose eyes were entangled, and quickened her steps to the second floor.

She saw Gu Xiyan from a distance, and Gu Xiyan waved to her: "Sit here."

Su Mei sat down next to Gu Xiyan and whispered to Gu Xiyan: "I learned at home that Su Ho was coming to participate in the food festival. I was worried, so I came to have a look. I have a good relationship with you and I am not afraid of letting you down.

Do people know?"

"It's okay." Gu Xiyan said calmly.

"I think if she doesn't come here as a kind person, I'm afraid she will spoil our good deeds." Su Mei was still a little worried.

"One rat droppings can't ruin a pot of porridge, don't worry." As Gu Xiyan was talking, she noticed that Liu Chaoyan was staring at her with good eyes.

"When did eldest sister get so close to Miss Su?" Liu Chaoyan looked back and forth at the two of them.

"This is all thanks to the second sister and Miss Su San. Yes, on my grandmother's birthday, when Miss Su San and His Highness Prince Qin looked at each other, Su Mei and I also developed a friendship."

As soon as Gu Xiyan finished speaking, she saw Su He and Xu Yongqian going up to the second floor together.

As soon as Su Ho went upstairs, he raised his voice and said: "Shopkeeper Wu is too dark-hearted. It costs so much money to enter your Jixiang Building. Why don't you just go and grab the money?"

What she said touched the hearts of everyone present, but everyone just wept in their hearts and did not say it out loud.

Su Mei and Gu Xiyan looked at each other, and it turned out that good people don't come.

Wu Tong was calm about Su Ho's trouble-making: "I just didn't want Jixiang Building to be too crowded, so I came up with this idea. If this girl thought it was not cost-effective, why did she have to bid and steal other people's entry lists?



Su Ho sneered.

She came here today to cause trouble.

So-called food festivals like this are not popular in modern times, but they were rare in ancient times, so these people are willing to step into this trap.

She even suspected that the person who came up with the food festival had traveled through time, and all the sales tactics looked familiar.

She also heard about the noon auction. She heard that Liu Chaoyan, a stupid bastard, spent 2,100 taels on a bowl of tofu. If six hundred yuan is worth one tael of silver, it would be equivalent to about 120 yuan in modern times.

Ten thousand yuan.

Even the richest man in modern times would not spend one million to buy a bowl of tofu.

After hearing this incident, she felt it was outrageous, so she came to Jixiang Building to see who was causing trouble.

In other words, she came here specifically to cause trouble today!

Wu Tong added at this time: "If this girl is here to cause trouble, you can leave. Jixianglou has been building a restaurant for ten years. It is a time-honored brand in the capital. It is the first time to hold a food festival in so many years, and it may be the last time.

This time, it’s not to disappoint some people with dark psychology.”

Su Ho sneered and raised his lips: "Who does the shopkeeper say has a dark mind?"

"Whoever is responsible has a guilty conscience." Wu Tong glanced at Su Ho coldly, raised his lips and said: "This is the ten-year-old sign of my Jixiang Restaurant. Every delicacy in this auction is unique. Miss Liu Er, you might as well say

Say, are we forcing you to bid today?"

Liu Chaoyan regarded Su Ho as her mortal enemy, and she replied proudly: "I trust the quality of Jixianglou. Although I spent a lot of money to buy a dish today, the two thousand taels were well spent!"

Even though her heart is still bleeding, she can't let Su Ho see her jokes.

Su Ho looked at Liu Chaoyan: "That's right. Miss Liu Er is the noble daughter of Wanqinghou Mansion. What's a mere two thousand taels? You might as well spend ten thousand taels to take a picture of a delicacy later so that all of us can grow up."

Long experience."

She suspected that Gu Xiyan had set a trap for Liu Chaoyan. Liu Chaoyan fell into Gu Xiyan's trap without knowing it, but Liu Chaoyan didn't seem to be such an outrageously stupid person.

Liu Chaoyan used to think Gu Xiyan was the most annoying, but now she thinks Su Ho is the most disgusting woman.

"Of course it is, unlike some business girls from small families who can't even afford a thousand taels, yet they dare to go to Jixiang Tower to embarrass themselves in the world." Liu Chaoyan said sarcastically.

Su Mei, who was watching the excitement, felt deeply that she had been accidentally injured.

A smile flashed in Gu Xiyan's eyes, and she patted the back of her hand, signaling her not to be like Liu Chaoyan, because it was important for them to make money today.

After that, Su Ho and Liu Chaoyan said something to each other, and they came and went. When two-quarters of an hour passed, the sixty candidates were filled.

Gu Xiyan quickly made a calculation in her mind and found that just by bidding to enter Jixiang Building, she had made almost ten thousand taels in vain, which was one step closer to her goal of one hundred thousand.
