Wen Yantong's breathing was long and lingering in Chi Jingxi's ears.
He stood for a long time, Wen Yantong suddenly moved and said, "I want to go down."
Only then did Chi Jingxi come to his senses, and quickly put her down. Wen Yantong's footsteps were flimsy, he swayed twice, and he quickly turned around to support her.
Wen Yantong was more courageous at the moment, and suddenly stretched out two hands to hold Chi Jingxi's face, slowly leaned forward, and asked, "Young Master?"
Chi Jingxi looked at her fixedly, and Mo Ran's eyes were full of turbulent affection.
Wen Yantong waited, but didn't hear his voice, thought his voice was too low, so she leaned her ear to his mouth and muttered, "What did you say? I didn't hear it."
Chi Jingxi raised his hand and touched her ear. The ear bones are very soft and turn red when pinched.
Wen Yantong didn't wait for him to answer, a little unhappy, "Why don't you talk."
Chi Jingxi smiled and asked in a low voice, "What do you want me to say?"
"Say you too." Wen Yantong said.
Chi Jingxi paused while looking into her eyes, and suddenly said seriously, "Then come closer, I'll only tell you."
Wen Yantong approached him according to his words, and even stood on tiptoe, narrowing the distance between the two of them.
Seeing how she was trying to get closer, Chi Jingxi held the back of her head with his hands, and dropped a light kiss, absorbing the fragrance of roses that still remained between his lips and teeth.
Wen Yantong's breathing became heavy all of a sudden, he lifted his head weakly, subconsciously grasped Chi Jingxi's wrist, and indulged in it all at once.
Like a dream that made her blush and heart beat, everything seemed unreal.
After a cup of tea, Chi Jingxi knocked on the door of Wen's house and sent the dizzy Wen Yantong back.
Chi Jingxi still didn't say it in the end, but Xinyiwen Yantong had already heard it.
When she woke up the next day, she sat on the bed for a long time, recalling everything that happened last night, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether it was true or not.
She got up slowly, and after putting on her clothes and washing, the servants from Wen Que's side came over.
He said that Wen Que was going to participate in the disaster relief auction, and asked Wen Yantong if he wanted to go together.
Wen Que started his family by begging. Although he is rich now, he is a rough man with no rules. He would never lock Wen Yantong in his boudoir. He only has this one daughter. Rather than recruiting and giving all the family property to an outsider, it is better to teach his daughter do business.
Wen Yantong thought about it after hearing this, and readily agreed, changed into a plain and elegant dress, and then went out with Wen Quin.
During the New Year, Shaojing ushered in a blizzard, and Chaoge’s roads were closed for several days in the warm area of Shaojing, let alone those in the extremely cold area.
In some places, many people were killed by heavy snow, and the crops could not be sown. The emperor ordered many officials in wealthy capitals to take out things from their homes to auction, and all the money sold would be used as disaster relief funds.
The last time I heard about the disaster relief, I frantically bought a few scraps of copper and iron, and donated a huge sum of money, which made Hou Ye have an impression.
The place of the auction is located in the central street of Chang'an City, in a building called Tianqiao Pavilion. Tianqiao Pavilion specializes in the production of various mechanisms, ranging from hidden weapons for various killers or weapons on the battlefield, to educational toys for children.
The Tianqiao Pavilion is three stories high, and the roof is dark vermilion, which can be found at a glance from a distance, and it is also very conspicuous among the scattered high and low pavilions in Chang'an City.
Rich businessmen gathered in Chang'an, from south to north, as long as they encountered this event, they would definitely go to Tianqiao Pavilion to participate. So the road was blocked, and pedestrians were not allowed to enter, and horse-drawn carriages were parked side by side in the road, each with its own differences.
Wen Que, as a well-known wealthy businessman in Chang'an, acted quite low-key. Although everything is available inside the carriage, it looks a bit simple from the outside, unlike some carriages decorated with gold and silver.
When Wen Que brought Wen Yantong into Tianqiao Pavilion, many people had already gathered there, including many officials of various sizes in Chang'an City. Wen Que had no connection with those people wearing official hats, but he had almost all business dealings with the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City, so he greeted different people from the moment he entered the door.
Wen Yantong followed behind him, and was praised from time to time, and she responded with just-right smiles and nods.
The auction was held on three floors at the same time. The top floor was full of expensive objects, and one item could cost an ordinary person a few years' spending, and the second floor and the first floor were less so.
People of Wen Que's level naturally rushed to the third floor as soon as they entered the door. Because of last year's floods, he won the top spot by donating a few streets away from the second place, so anyone who knows him or doesn't know him will come. Talk to him pretending to be familiar.
Poor Wenqin walks on crutches, is very funny, and laughs at all kinds of people's advances. Standing aside, Wen Yantong couldn't help but want to laugh.
However, Wen Que showed an unfathomable appearance in the business field. He was slick and handled very well when it came to other people's cynicism or hints at transactions.
After some pleasantries, the curtain finally came to an end at the beginning. Tianqiao Pavilion launched various things one after another. At the beginning, there were not many people selling them, but as time went on, the things they brought out became more upscale. .
Wen Yantong felt a little bored, and leaned against the cushions and fell asleep until Tianqiao Pavilion took out a painting.
That painting is Wen Yantong's very heartwarming figure painting on the boat, and it depicts the lifelike young Chi Jingxi. She got excited immediately, patted Wen Qun's hand, and said softly, "Father, can I buy this painting?"
Wen Que was also a little dozed off, so she woke up instantly when she slapped her, and when she looked up on the stage, she said in surprise, "Isn't this the young master?"
Wen Yantong nodded, "Look how good this painting is!"
Wen Que also said, "It's really good, I want to buy this painting."
But he liked the painting not because it was good, but because of the people in the painting. May I ask which wealthy businessman in Chang'an city doesn't want to curry favor with the Hou's mansion
So this painting was raised to a very expensive price in just a few words. The number of bidders gradually decreased, and Wen Qun only raised his placard when he saw this.
As soon as the rich and powerful Wen Que made a move, almost no one followed suit. In the end, Wen Que won the painting at an outrageously high price. Although Wen Yantong knew that Wen Que was rich, he really didn't expect him to be so extravagant.
In the later auctions, as long as it was something he liked, he would take it no matter what, so he topped the list again.
This time the disaster relief activity was relatively large, and some areas in Chang'an were in charge of Lord Hou. At the end of the auction, Wen Que was about to go home with his things when he was stopped by Chi Shu's entourage, saying that Lord Hou wanted to come with him. eat.
Wen Que was a little nervous, he followed to Chang'an Restaurant not far from Tianqiao Pavilion, and was taken into a quiet private room.
As soon as he opened the door and entered, he saw Chi Shu sitting on the upper seat, talking with a smile. Sitting beside him was Chi Jingxi in a foggy blue robe.
Although Chi Jingxi's expression is calm, but a pair of beautiful eyes can reveal a little impatience, it can be seen that Chi Shu asked him to come to this dinner.
But the moment Wen Yantong poked his head in and looked at him, all the impatience in those eyes melted instantly, as if a touch of warm sunshine in spring was added.
Wen Yantong twitched the corners of his mouth quietly, not daring to smile at Chi Jingxi blatantly, and obediently followed Wen Quin to salute Chi Shu.
Chi Shu was quite easy-going, and after avoiding the etiquette of the father and daughter, he let Wen Qun sit. Wen Que was very cautious, and gave the crutches to the servants, and when he sat down, he almost fell over.
He has been doing business in Chang'an City for so many years, and it was the first time he met Lord Hou, let alone sat opposite Lord Hou to eat with him. Wen Yantong understood his feelings, thinking that when she ate at the same table with Chi Jingxi for the first time, even though there was a large group of people at the table, she still felt nervous.
As soon as he was seated, Chi Shu said, "Brother Wen, please come here. You won't feel any inconvenience, will you?"
Wen Que shook his head hastily, "No, no, Master Hou is here to invite, how dare Wen Mou be inconvenient."
Chi Shu said with a smile, "Look at what you said. Inviting Brother Wen to come today is to thank Brother Wen for his heart in helping the world. Don't lose your affection because of etiquette."
Wen Que said, "Don't dare, Wen Mou is just trying his best."
Wen Yantong wanted to laugh, so he could only shift his gaze to Chi Jingxi. Across a square table, Chi Jingxi sat upright and polite, his eyes were full of lingering smiles, and when he met Shang Wen Yantong's gaze, there was even more enthusiasm hidden in it.
If you stare like this for a long time, it will reveal your secrets, Wen Yantong had no choice but to lower his head, pretending not to see.
Chi Jingxi also lowered his eyes, and raised his hand to pour a cup of hot tea. With his long arms, he pushed the teacup in front of Wen Yantong, firmly.
Wen Yantong was a little surprised, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Chi Jingxi, but from the corner of his eye, he saw that Chi Shu was also looking here in surprise, so he immediately reached out to hold the teacup, and said in a low voice, "Thank you, little lord."
Chi Jingxi said warmly, "It's cold outside, drink some hot tea first to drive away the cold."
Chi Shu said with a smile, "When did you become so considerate?"
Chi Jingxi said, "I did it when I thought about it."
Chi Shu smiled, and ordered someone to pour hot tea for Wen Qun, and said, "My son has always been xenophobic, and he is very reserved in front of strangers. It is rare for him to take the initiative."
Wen Qun said, "Young Master took good care of his beloved daughter in Chaoge. Wen is very grateful. Today is just a chance to thank you."
Chi Jingxi was extremely gentle towards Wen Qun, "No need, Ling Ai is the one who has taught me many things."
Wen Yantong recalled how Chi Jingxi grinned when she first met her, and knew that what Chi said was correct, Chi Jingxi had very little patience with unfamiliar people. This time, Wen Que was in her favor.
Thinking of her, I couldn't help laughing, and said, "Young Master has indeed helped me a lot, and I've been thinking about how I can repay him."
Chi Shu looked at Chi Jingxi, then at Wen Yantong, and said with a smile, "I met this little girl yesterday, and I learned that she is 28 years old, and should be the age for marriage and engagement. It just so happens that Jingxi is also crowned this year. Words, if the little girl wants to repay, how about entering the door of my Chi family?"
"Huh?" Wen Que was dumbfounded.
Wen Yantong yelled loudly in his heart, damn it!
Chi Shu's straight ball made her nose bleed and she was dizzy.
It's not that big, is it
