Although Gu Xueyi has read a lot of books during this period of time, she really doesn't know much about the city in front of her.
It was a good choice to let Yan Wenshu be the guide.
Yan Wenshu provided the location, and after Gu Xueyi told the driver, the driver drove her directly to the entrance of the gallery.
"Here!" Yan Wenshu waved her hand quickly.
Gu Xueyi stepped forward and looked up at the gallery's name—Qingqing.
The name is rather literary.
"This place is opened by a friend's brother of mine. It specializes in selling paintings by niche painters. It meets your requirements..." Yan Wenshu said as she walked in with her.
Gu Xueyi was not in a hurry to look at the painting first, but asked, "Where do you live these two days?"
"Hotel." After Yan Wenshu finished speaking, she realized that she wasn't detailed enough, and quickly added: "At Alice Hotel. It's closer to the shopping mall you went to last time."
"Huh? How do you know which mall I went to?"
"I read the news." Yan Wenshu whispered. After saying this, her voice raised a lot: "Did that Pei Zhikang go to harass you? I've already seen the trending searches."
Yan Wenshu curled her lips: "He is really like a dog. He is only worthy of carrying things for you."
Gu Xueyi looked up towards the direction of the stairs: "Here comes the man."
Yan Wenshu immediately shut up, and returned to her appearance as a socialite and lady.
It was a man in his thirties who came, wearing khaki casual clothes. He greeted Yan Wenshu first, and then Gu Xueyi.
"Mrs. Yan, I have heard about it for a long time." The man smiled and led him in: "I heard that you are coming to buy paintings... What do you like?"
Gu Xueyi straight to the point: "Which painting is the cheapest in the gallery?"
"Ah?...Ah." The man froze for a moment, the smile on his face froze for a second: "The cheapest?"
"Um."
Yan Wenshu was also dumbfounded.
A few seconds later, Yan Wenshu came back to her senses, quickly and carefully grabbed Gu Xueyi's sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Are you... don't you have money to spend?"
Yan Wenshu hesitated for a moment, but said out loud, "I still have a little pocket change.... Is one million enough?"
The current Gu Xueyi is different from before, she shouldn't be angry after hearing what she said, right
Gu Xueyi couldn't help but chuckled.
Yan Wenshu stared at her smile for a second.
For a moment, the other people in the gallery couldn't help but glance over here.
"Thank you, I don't need it." Gu Xueyi said.
Yan Wenshu: "Why don't you use Yan Wenjia's money? He is richer than us. If you ask him to give you five million, he will definitely pay for it."
Gu Xueyi raised her hand and patted her on the head: "Okay, I understand, but I really don't need it."
Yan Wenshu touched her head and stopped talking.
The man smiled: "Okay, then I'll ask my assistant to find the cheapest painting here and give it to you."
After a while, a female assistant came out holding a painting with difficulty.
The man said: "I saw a young painter who was very pitiful and needed money urgently, so I asked him to sell it here. It is not at the same price as other paintings... just this one, three thousand will do."
Gu Xueyi looked down.
This painting is about "the woman on the hospital bed". The figure of the woman is lying on the bed, and her body slowly melts like a candle...
The inscription is "Winter Night".
"Okay, just this one." Gu Xueyi swiped her card neatly and paid.
Of course, the secondary card of Yanchao was used.
Only then did Yan Wenshu see clearly what Gu Xueyi took out.
"This card...is different from ours," Yan Wenshu said.
Gu Xueyi nodded: "Well, it's your elder brother's secondary card."
Yan Wenshu:? ?
Yan Wenshu: "Oh." The expression on her face became even more embarrassing.
turn out to be! Not without money!
How could she have no money with her eldest brother's secondary card!
But it's not right...
Yan Wenshu puffed her chest out, coughed, cleared her throat and said, "Well, but the secondary card seems to have a limit. If you run out of money one day, just tell me, I still have a little money..."
Gu Xueyi responded: "Okay."
Yan Wenshu squinted her eyes happily, feeling a different feeling of being needed.
It seems to have proved his worth!
Gu Xueyi took the painting and went directly to the modeling studio.
Chen Yujin called the studio in advance to make an appointment, and it was still the same one as last time.
This studio has dealt with Gu Xueyi before, and this time it is considered familiar.
As soon as the staff here welcomed Gu Xueyi in, Gu Xueyi's cell phone rang.
She glanced down.
Banquet Wen Jia.
This is a bit strange, Yan Wenjia would take the initiative to send her text messages, but did not take the initiative to call her.
Gu Xueyi answered the phone: "Hello."
The voice of Yan Wenjia's manager came from the other end. The manager was a little nervous and stammered: "Yan, Mrs. Yan."
"Well, it's me. What happened to him?"
"No, no, no." The agent at the other end swallowed again, and then continued: "Are you going to participate in any event today? We just walked by Anyun Road and saw you entering a house styling studio."
"Well, yes, what's the matter?" Gu Xueyi responded, while raising her head to take the water handed by the staff.
There was a pause on the phone.
Someone seems to have taken the phone.
Immediately afterwards, Yan Wenjia's voice came from the other end: "Did you find them? Who found them for you? Chen Yujin arranged for them?... This one is too rubbish."
The staff of themoon who was bending over to clean up the table next to him: "..."
Is it really okay to blatantly say bad things? But that end seems to be... It seems to be Yuan Wenjia's voice? Fuck? ? !
On the other end, Yan Wenjia pursed her lower lip hard, speaking slowly, but each word was extraordinarily poignant: "What does Chen Yujin know? He may know about the company. But what fashion does he know?"
"Let my agent look for it, and it will help you find a better one."
Gu Xueyi covered her phone, turned her face to the staff and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I'll teach him a lesson when I go back."
staff member:? ?
What the hell did I eat!
Gu Xueyi let go of her hand again: "Okay, I get it."
Yan Wenjia: "..."
Yan Wenjia: "Aren't you coming out?"
Gu Xueyi directly skipped the topic: "What event did you leave the film crew to participate in?"
Yan Wenjia was taken away immediately, and instinctively replied: "Be a friendly guest of the first episode."
"Yeah." Gu Xueyi said, "Be good."
"… Um."
Gu Xueyi hung up the phone.
Yan Wenjia clutched the phone at the other end, and paused for a few seconds before realizing that the question just now had been perfunctory.
Yan Wenjia turned on her phone and came to her WeChat Moments.
In the past three months, there is still only that lonely one...
After Gu Xueyi finished styling, she received a call from Pei Zhikang.
"Where is Mrs. Yan now? I'll come and pick you up."
"Okay." Gu Xueyi gave an address.
On the other side, Pei Lixin had already arrived at the charity dinner early.
She first handed over her charity auction to the auction organizer, and then went to meet Feng Yu.
"Boss Feng is meeting guests now, so it's inconvenient to see Boss Pei." The other party stopped her coldly.
The expression on Pei Lixin's face froze.
Although Baoxin has gradually disappeared from the public's sight these years, with the growth of Yan's, the business it undertakes is only more or less.
Anyone outside who knew what Baoxin was doing would look at her differently to Pei Lixin.
She hasn't tasted this kind of taste for a long time.
Oh no, I tasted it recently, it was brought to her by Gu Xueyi.
Thinking of this, Pei Lixin's expression froze for a moment.
But Feng Yu is not Gu Xueyi.
She could think of ways to deal with Gu Xueyi, but she couldn't deal with Feng Yu.
Pei Lixin could only wait obediently.
This wait was more than half an hour.
The door in front of him finally opened, and a bald and fat man came out from inside. Pei Lixin glanced at her, she was not a familiar face, so it could be seen that she was an insignificant person.
... Feng Yu did it on purpose.
Pei Lixin forced a smile, and looked at the man in the room: "Mr. Feng."
Feng Yu pursed his lips and smiled: "Oh, isn't this the dog raised by the Yan family?"
Pei Lixin's expression cracked instantly.
"President Feng... what does this mean?" Pei Lixin was so angry that she was about to explode into fireworks, but she still had to try her best to maintain a calm face.
"That's what you mean. After being a dog for a long time, don't you even understand human speech?" Feng Yu didn't save her face at all.
"Did Mr. Feng hear some rumors? There must be a misunderstanding..." Pei Lixin tried to keep calm and explained.
Feng Yu slowly got up from the sofa and walked towards her.
"If I didn't know that you guys have enmity with Yan Dynasty, I wouldn't be bothered to help that old man Yan Xunhua." Feng Yu is 1.86 meters tall, standing in front of Pei Lixin, it immediately brought a strong sense of oppression, and even There is a kind of indescribable aloofness.
"Feng Yu! Don't deceive others too much! Isn't it mutual benefit between us?" Pei Lixin regretted it after she said it.
Feng Yu looked at her coldly: "Believe it or not, I will have someone throw you out now, and you will never be able to get into this place again."
Pei Lixin swallowed, and said: "No, I was too excited just now. Mr. Feng, listen to me, did you read the news on the Internet? Yes, I asked my younger brother to contact Gu Xueyi. His wife. But it was to get the seal of Yan Chao, to kill Yan Chao completely abroad... "
Feng Yu turned around, casually picked up the dart on the side plate, and threw it towards the other side of the wall.
He wasn't listening at all.
But Pei Lixin had no choice but to continue explaining.
By the time Pei Lixin spoke dryly, an hour had passed.
She stood there, almost exhausted.
The reason why Feng Yu was able to become enemies with Yan Chao was, of course, because he was also strong enough.
Pei Lixin was under a lot of pressure in front of him.
"... I'm done." Pei Lixin licked her lower lip, she couldn't even remember what she said afterwards.
Feng Yu sneered: "Okay, then let me see if your Pei family really likes to be dogs for people. Or can you really kill Yan Chao?"
Pei Lixin exited Feng Yu's room and walked into the elevator.
The elevator doors opened and closed, and a gust of wind blew by. Pei Lixin was covered in sweat when she touched it.
Compared to Feng Yu, Pei Lixin has to say that Gu Xueyi is much easier to deal with.
If she had known earlier that she would shoot herself in the foot with the few photos she asked the reporter to take, she would not have done that even if she was killed. But now that it has been done, Feng Yu already has doubts about her, and he doesn't listen to her excuse at all.
If she breaks away from Gu Xueyi immediately, it will only appear that she is guilty and like a fool.
Then there is only one way to go!
She must take care of Gu Xueyi!
After a while, Pei Zhikang arrived at the modeling studio.
When he saw Gu Xueyi, he was amazed for a few seconds, and then he realized that he stepped forward to talk to Gu Xueyi.
Gu Xueyi swiped her card to pay.
Pei Zhikang was ignored.
The two went downstairs and got into the car. It was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
"Is your wife ready for auction?" Pei Zhikang asked, "I forgot to remind Mrs. Yan earlier."
"get ready."
Pei Zhikang said regretfully: "It's a pity that it's late. The lot has to be delivered early so that the auction will have it appraised first."
Gu Xueyi glanced at him: "How many times have your Pei family attended charity dinners?"
"... six times. What's wrong?"
"Then can't even do this?"
Pei Zhikang took a breath: "It can be done."
"They don't dare to delay Mrs. Yan's things." Pei Zhikang said with a smile.
But only he knew it in his heart.
It looked like the Pei family was highly involved in this charity dinner, but in reality it was Feng Yu who had the final say.
I don't know if his sister talked to Feng Yu
Feng Yu hates Yan Chao so much... Maybe he will blow up immediately just by looking at the word Mrs. Yan.
Pei Zhikang was a little anxious and bored along the way, so he didn't have time to talk to Gu Xueyi frequently.
Gu Xueyi is too lazy to deal with such a stupid person.
It's all right to be stupid, and stupid is not a banquet person, so how can he waste her time
Gu Xueyi turned her head in satisfaction, and looked at the scenery outside the window.
The car soon arrived at the gate of the charity dinner.
This dinner was held at the Huayue Hotel, which is the most luxurious hotel in Beijing along with the Silica Hotel.
A long red carpet has been laid out at the entrance of the dinner party.
Reporters have also squatted on both sides.
The doors of the cars in front opened one after another, and a man in a suit and a woman in a long skirt stepped onto the red carpet one after another.
Among them are some familiar first-line stars in the entertainment industry.
Pei Zhikang looked at those stars and said with disdain, "These are just for the fun of the scene."
Gu Xueyi ignored him.
Pei Zhikang had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
Gu Xueyi didn't have any prejudice against opera singers in the past, what's more, in this era, opera singers are no longer classified as low class like in the past.
Not to mention, Yan Wenjia is a "star".
Pei Zhikang volunteered and first went to the organizer with Gu Xueyi's painting on his back.
He didn't let Gu Xueyi go with him, because he was afraid that if he couldn't do it later and made a fool of himself, he would let Gu Xueyi see it.
Pei Zhikang called Pei Lixin while carrying the painting.
Fortunately, Pei Lixin was nearby and immediately came to pick him up.
Seeing his appearance, Pei Lixin scolded Gu Xueyi angrily.
"She uses you as a servant? Why don't you know how to hand it over to someone else?"
Pei Lixin couldn't help thinking of those netizens, and even Feng Yu satirized them as Gu Xueyi's dogs.
"I'm afraid it won't be over for a while, isn't it us who are ashamed?" Pei Zhikang was also very angry.
If Pei Lixin could be more powerful, he wouldn't have to do this!
At times like this, Pei Zhikang would suddenly realize that although he was rich, he was far from powerful. When he met those powerful people, he also had to bow his head.
Pei Lixin couldn't say anything more, so she quickly handed over the painting to the organizer.
The organizers didn't say anything.
Pei Lixin and Pei Zhikang breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll pick up Gu Xueyi." Pei Zhikang said.
Pei Lixin had already thought about the embarrassing situation for a while, but if she had to put aside the relationship at this time, it would only be more embarrassing.
"Go." Pei Lixin took a deep breath to ensure that she would not be too angry to suffocate for a while.
The spotlight ahead illuminates the road paved with red carpet.
Celebrities from all walks of life scratched their heads and posed in front of the camera, but after seeing the big shots coming out, they all avoided them wisely.
At this time, Gu Xueyi got out of the car.
Before coming down, she made good use of Encyclopedia to learn more about various charity dinners.
"Mrs. Yan, wait."
Pei Zhikang wanted to walk side by side with Gu Xueyi, so that he wouldn't look like a bag-carrying boy.
Gu Xueyi paused, then turned her head and gave him a sideways glance: "This is where Yan Chao stands."
Pei Zhikang gritted his teeth and could only hold back.
Of course he can't compare with Yan Chao.
One day, one day... Pei Zhikang's eyes changed, staring at Gu Xueyi's back, revealing a sinister look.
Gu Xueyi quickly walked into the camera of the media.
The media froze for a moment, and then suddenly went crazy collectively, pressing the shutter desperately.
Grass!
Yan Chao's wife actually appeared at this charity dinner!
Isn't this the same as Jiang Er's appearance in front of the gate of the Silika Hotel before, which is as shocking as it is!
On the contrary, those celebrities were stunned. They looked back a few times, but their vision was blurred by the light, and they didn't recognize Gu Xueyi for a while.
"Which star?"
"Could it be that big Huadan?"
"have no idea… "
Soon, Gu Xueyi walked to the door.
People from various business circles who had just entered the door and were chatting with other people suddenly turned around and saw Gu Xueyi.
Thanks to the recent news, they almost all know that this is Mrs. Yan.
But the question is... why did Mrs. Yan appear here
Pei Zhikang followed.
Sure enough, the same as what was written in the news before, the Pei family went back to be a dog for the Yan family
All of them had complex expressions for a while.
At this time, someone shouted: "Mr. Jiang!"
Spotlights flicker non-stop.
With one long leg, Jiang Yue quickly walked across the red carpet, and quickly caught up with Gu Xueyi.
Jiang Yue couldn't help laughing, as if he found something funny: "You are here too."
Gu Xueyi responded lightly: "Yes."
Jiang Yue laughed harder: "Yes, there is no place you dare not go, right?"
As Jiang Yue said, he turned his head and glanced at Pei Zhikang behind him: "This man is an idiot, why did you let him follow you?"
Gu Xueyi didn't even look at him, and said casually, "Guess."
Jiang Yue: "...OK, I see."
Jiang Yue laughed angrily: "It's the same trick, right?"
Gu Xueyi nodded lightly, with a dignified demeanor: "Mr. Jiang is really smart."
Jiang Yue laughed at himself: "It's smarter than that idiot behind."
Jiang Yue straightened his expression and said, "Perhaps I have to thank Mrs. Yan for being lenient and not turning me into a running dog of the Yan family."
Gu Xueyi then turned her head, nodded and smiled slightly: "Mr. Jiang must be voluntary."
Jiang Yue paused for a second.
The reporter suddenly saw this scene, and frantically took pictures again.
Pei Zhikang who followed was almost thrown away.
But because the surroundings were too noisy, he still couldn't hear what Gu Xueyi and Jiang Yue said clearly, so he saw Jiang Yue striding to keep up with Gu Xueyi.
Pei Zhikang almost died of anger.
Didn't you say that the Yanchao seat is next to it
Just because Jiang Yue is powerful? All qualified to stand there
Gu Xueyi and Jiang Yue quickly entered the door and came to the center of the hall.
Pei Zhikang hurriedly chased after him.
The guests in the hall were filled with shit.
The last time Jiang Er went to the Silica dinner, they were already shocked.
This time, Jiang Er and Mrs. Yan appeared here at the same time, and the two seemed to be having a good time talking, and there was also the Pei family...they had endless complaints for a while.
And after the auction host came out, the scene was briefly contained.
Feng Yu was already seated in the first row.
Behind is the location of the Song family, the location of the Jiang family, and the location of the Pei family...
Seeing Jiang Yue and Gu Xueyi talking from a distance, Pei Lixin couldn't help being vigilant.
Gu Xueyi has no feelings for Yan Chao now, so she won't have an affair with Jiang Er, right
Pei Lixin hurriedly greeted her with a smile: "Madam, this way please."
Pei Lixin welcomed Gu Xueyi to her side, and asked her to sit between her and Pei Zhikang.
Jiang Yue turned his head to take a look, sneered, and sat down.
Feng Yu sat in front and heard "Ma'am".
Mrs
The wife Pei Lixin was talking about
That can only be the wife of Yan Chao.
Feng Yu sneered from the bottom of his heart, thinking of what the waiter said that day, he turned his head.
And Gu Xueyi was also looking at the "President Feng" in front of her.
He took a seat by himself.
Doesn't he feel that the surroundings are empty and cold
Feng Yu's gaze collided with Gu Xueyi unexpectedly.
Gu Xueyi looked at him calmly.
Something flashed through Feng Yu's mind quickly, but he couldn't grasp it.
At this time, Pei Lixin also quietly turned her head to look at Gu Xueyi.
... She is not afraid
Pei Lixin was taken aback.
Isn't she afraid of Feng Yu
But soon, Pei Lixin found an excuse to comfort herself.
Gu Xueyi probably doesn't know Feng Yu.
If you don't know him, of course you don't know how powerful he is, and of course you don't know how scared he is.
Pei Lixin immediately said, "This... is Mr. Feng."
Gu Xueyi nodded slightly, still with a little natural arrogance, she said: "I know. Mr. Feng, seventy-nine. My servant."
Pei Lixin:? ?
Pei Zhikang:? ?
Jiang Er:? ?
Feng Yu's eyelids twitched.
Grass!
Africa.
The big man grabbed his mobile phone and said: "...pay 135,000 yuan...themoon studio. What is it?"
"A modeling studio." The young man said without raising his head.
"Oh, boss, I see. It's the kind of person who does hair and makeup."
The big man went on to read: "... Pay 3,000 yuan... Qingqing Gallery. This name is very difficult to pronounce."
The young man made no comment this time.
The big man stared at the phone for a long time, and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Boss, it's not good! This guy does hair and makeup, and goes to buy paintings! Isn't that..."
The big man's voice suddenly choked in his throat.
The young man rolled his eyelids: "What?"
The big man touched his neck, checked his pulse, and then boldly finished the following words: "Isn't that wife going on a date?"
The big man said and looked at the top of the young man's head.
Young Man: ...
