"This... This is too expensive, I can't have it."
Looking at Su Qiubai, Gu Chengya was also surprised by Mr. Dongfang's words, and finally put all the scrolls back into the box, intending to return them to him.
If she said that before, everyone would find it funny.
One must know what Gu Chengya's identity is, the eldest lady of the Gu family, is there still a gift in this world that makes her feel precious
But now, no one thinks there is anything wrong with this sentence!
This thing... is indeed too precious!
"It's not expensive, it's just a few words, keep it, happy birthday."
Su Qiubai smiled lightly, but did not pick up the box.
When he said this, a group of people almost fainted, especially Yuan Pengqing and others, gnashing their teeth angrily, but there was nothing they could do... I wanted to give this kind of national treasure, but I didn't!
Everyone else thought that Su Qiubai said this on purpose, but in the eyes of the old driver... this thing is really not expensive, it is really just a few words!
The ancestors all carried their seals with them, so he went out and bought some rice paper, and then let the four of them each have a character, and then spliced them together. After stamping the seal, it took a few growth points to make it old.
It's that simple!
If you want to say that his gift is a fake, the words were indeed written by these four emperors, and the seals were indeed stamped by them, there is absolutely no fake!
But to say that this thing is true, how could someone in the world gather the words of these four people on a work, and even the seal is not missing, and finally spliced into happy birthday, good health, all the best...
Therefore, even Su Qiubai himself couldn't tell whether it was true or not.
But the whole process... is indeed very simple! Anyway, these people are sitting there. If you want a map of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, I can make it.
No one was willing to mention Su Qiubai's gift anymore, even when many people watched Gu Chengya put away the box containing the scroll, they felt a little regretful in their eyes.
Madan, that is a national treasure! Just give it away!
But no one can say anything. If you want to give away your own things to whomever you like, what can you do.
Afterwards, the dinner party started. Originally, Gu Chengya wanted to invite Su Qiubai to sit with her, but Su Qiubai refused.
He is not a fool, at this point, he can also feel that Gu Chengya may have a different feeling for her, so he must refuse what should be rejected.
Back at his own table, the group of ancestors had almost eaten. Although the waiter next to him looked surprised, Su Qiubai could only ask in embarrassment if he could serve these dishes again.
Leaning on the chair, the chubby Zhou Zile looked at Su Qiubai after a few mouthfuls. The old driver who seemed ordinary to him just now seemed much more mysterious now.
There was no way, it was supposed to be a scene where a group of young talents showed off their special abilities, but Su Qiubai casually forced all of them into pretending!
How can this be an ordinary person!
But Su Qiubai is thinking about Gu Chengya right now, his mind is a little messed up now, especially thinking of the way Gu Chengya looked at him before.
She doesn't really like herself, does she
Perhaps because of the failed relationship experience, Su Qiubai is very cautious in this matter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Su Xiaoxiao for advice when he was in a daze with Xia Rongrong.
What Gu Chengya did today made him suddenly a little worried...
Just when the dinner was going on smoothly, Su Qiubai suddenly received a call.
It was a number he didn't recognize. After connecting with some doubts, Su Qiubai heard the voice of a man inside.
"Hello, is this Mr. Su? I'm Xia Xiaomo's brother Xia Tian."
With a very clear self-introduction, Su Qiubai knew the other party's identity.
"Yes, it's me."
Some doubts agreed, he didn't tell others about helping Xia Tian, did Xia Tian already know
"Mr. Su, I have something to tell you, is it convenient for you now?"
Then, Xia Tian came again.
Su Qiubai felt even more strange, especially since he heard panic and anxiety from Xia Tian's tone.
"Does it have to be now?"
Looking around, Su Qiubai asked.
"Yes, it's now, if it's later... I'm worried that something will happen!"
Without hesitation, Xia Tian said immediately, and his voice became more tense.
This made Su Qiubai a little embarrassed, he was still attending Gu Chengya's birthday party, and if he left, what would these ancestors do.
But for some reason, he always felt that Xia Tian might have something very important to tell himself on the phone call.
I remembered what Xia Xiaomo said on the riverside, about Xia Tian because I knew a secret, so I got to this point...
After hesitating for a long time, Xia Tian on the phone said again, "Mr. Su, please come and see me, it's really important!"
Finally, Su Qiubai made up his mind.
"Okay, tell me where?"
"Jiangbei Wharf, please don't tell others that you came to see me, thank you."
After finishing speaking, Xia Tian hung up the phone, Su Qiubai here was a little dazed and indescribably nervous.
Immediately, he whispered a few words to Ying Zheng, and then told Zhou Zile next to him that he would help send these uncles back later.
The little fat man agreed without hesitation, but Su Qiubai seemed to be leaving, so he couldn't help asking, "Aren't you going to say hello to Miss Gu?"
Hearing what he said, Su Qiubai looked back at Gu Chengya over there, then shook his head, then walked out of the hall alone, and left Gu's house quietly.
Because it was quite far from here to Jiangbei Wharf, and he happened to pass by the villa area, so he returned to the villa first, drove a taxi, and then set off for Jiangbei Wharf.
At this moment, in the darkness of night, the cold wind was blowing by the river, and Xia Tian was sitting on the stone bench next to the pier, feeling very nervous.
He didn't know why he felt this way, but he just felt very scared, and the secret in his heart seemed to be magnified because of this emotion.
After being expelled from the army in the past, although he would occasionally think of it, but it has never been the same as it is now.
After receiving the news that he could return to the army immediately, he felt unbearable, as if there were a pair of invisible hands in the darkness, ready to crush him at any moment.
So, after learning from his sister that it was probably Su Qiubai's help that allowed him to return to the army, he made up his mind!
Although I don't know why a taxi driver can have so much energy, but compared to himself, Su Qiubai must be more capable of keeping this secret!
That's why he decided to ask Su Qiubai out late at night. If... something really happened to him, at least there are still people in this world who know about it!
Thinking of this, Xia Tian took a deep breath again, trying to calm himself down.
Looking at the deserted road in the distance, he waited anxiously...
After Su Qiubai left the villa, he drove directly to Jiangbei Wharf in a car.
His intuition told him that what Xia Tian wanted to say must be very important, otherwise he would definitely not use that kind of tone!
You must know that in Su Qiubai's impression, Xia Tian is a man who doesn't talk much. Combined with the things Xia Xiaomo said before, such a person... what secret is he hiding
Why did he decide to tell himself
Su Qiubai didn't know the answers to these questions, and the way forward was quite difficult, several traffic lights just blocked him.
This made him a little anxious, the ghost knows why, but no one answered the call to Xia Tian!
Inexplicably, Su Qiubai had a very bad premonition in his heart.
Finally, he arrived at Jiangbei Wharf.
A total of five phone calls were made to Xia Tian along the way, but no one answered them all.
Parked the car on the side of the road, Su Qiubai ran towards the pier, shouting Xia Tian's name loudly, but there was no echo in the silent night.
This pier was not very big, so Su Qiubai basically walked the entire time around.
When he finally couldn't help but want to call Xia Xiaomo to ask about the situation, his eyes happened to see an arm in the water.
Feeling agitated all over, Su Qiubai walked over slowly, then grabbed that arm and pulled it up vigorously.
A corpse inside popped out immediately.
Taking a closer look, the corpse's eyes were wide open, full of horror!
This person... is Xia Tian!
