Chapter 59

I saw Huo Yubai wearing a well-tailored black suit, and he looked very handsome. He had a relaxed expression, as if he was strolling in a courtyard, and walked over.

Huo Qingcheng confirmed with some disbelief:
"Second brother, is this your friend?"

Huo Yubai didn't answer, just looked at her and asked, "Qingcheng, what about your upbringing?"

Huo Qingcheng blushed when asked, and remained silent for a long time.

Seeing this, Su Qi smiled and said, "Qingcheng, the visitor is a guest. In short, one more person is not too many, and one less person is not too many. Since he is the second brother's friend, he must be someone with status." He touched Huo Yubai's arm and said with a smile, "Is that right? Brother Huo?"

Su Yi is also the No.1 Yuan after all, the way she speaks at this moment looks like a delicate little girl.

Banruo pursed her lips, and sneered, Su Yi and Huo Qingcheng really matched each other when they sang together, and Huo Yubai, with the No.1 girl by her side, was truly blessed!She looked at Su Yi's hand on Huo Yubai's arm, and her smile became colder.

Huo Yubai noticed her icy gaze, and couldn't help squinting his eyes, his heart trembled. What is the reason for this feeling of being caught doing bad things?Banruo is not someone like himself, even if Su Qi really has something to do with him, don't feel guilty, right?Isn't he also very unwilling to have her become his destined partner?I remember that when he confirmed this matter, he was very resistant. Could it be that now he already subconsciously thinks that they are a couple?

Huo Yubai frowned even tighter.He didn't like this feeling very much.

I don't even like the look in her eyes that looks like a heartbreaker!How did that look of disgust, as if wishing he could get rid of him sooner, come from?

"Miss Banruo, there is a small auction in Gulangxuan on Saturday, is she free?" Huo Yubai sincerely invited.

Banruo turned her head and said coldly: "No time!" After finishing speaking, she turned around and left.

Huo Yubai was left alone in place with a deflated expression on his face.

Su Qi frowned subconsciously, she looked towards the direction Banruo left, and asked with a sense of crisis: "Second brother, who is that person?"

"A friend." Or a destined companion.

"Friends?" Su Qi smiled a little reluctantly, she thought about her words over and over again: "Second brother, you don't seem to have such friends!"

When Huo Yubai heard this, he turned his face and looked at her coldly. "What kind of friend?"

"Eh..." Su Qi realized that she had spoken too much, and Huo Yubai didn't like to speak ill of others behind her back. She quickly changed her words: "I mean, that girl seems to be very young. It's very naive and immature, I didn't expect you to have such a young friend."

"Although she is young, she has a mature mind. As for what kind of friends I like to make, I don't need you to worry about it." After Huo Yubai finished speaking, he turned and left.

Behind him, Su Yi's eyes were full of resentment and unwillingness.

As soon as he left, Huo Qingcheng said angrily: "Why does Second Brother have such a low-ranking friend? He even defended her."

Su Qi was so angry that her teeth itch. For some reason, she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. You must know that this was the first time Huo Yubai defended a woman in front of her.

"Su Qi, I think you should hurry up and confess your love to your elder brother! I'll help you invite him over later."

Su Qi tightly held her golden ankle-length skirt, worried: "If it works, it will be a good story, if it doesn't work, I'm afraid I will become a joke."

"You, you just take your self-esteem too seriously. Isn't Second Brother such an outstanding person enough for you to work hard?" Huo Qingcheng said.

After a long time, Su Qi took a breath and nodded: "Okay! I'll try."

To be honest, it's boring to stay in such a place for a long time. Banruo drank a glass of red wine, and she just took another glass. Unexpectedly, the wine glass was snatched away by a hand stretched from behind.

"Huh?" Banruo subconsciously turned her head back, who knew that the two were very close, and when Banruo turned her head, she happened to bump into his arms.

Huo Yubai's voice came from above his head: "Drunk?"

In fact, Prajna has a good capacity for alcohol. In the past few years, every time Wang Changsheng drank, he let her have a sip. According to the current scientific point of view, it is very bad to let children drink alcohol. Anyone who dares to do so now will probably be criticized. die!But at the beginning, raising children was not so particular, and Wang Changsheng didn't understand these things. He occasionally gave Banruo a sip, and seeing that Banruo had never been drunk after drinking, he often let Banruo drink with him. .

"I only drank a glass of red wine, it would be amazing if I could get drunk!" Banruo said something, then frowned and asked, "Why did you take my wine away?"

Huo Yubai snorted coldly, shook his wine glass, and said seriously: "Minors are not allowed to drink!"

underage?Banruo was stunned for a moment, thinking that she is only 17 years old now, and she is indeed not yet an adult.

She looked at Huo Yubai, always feeling that at this time he had some shadow of the dean again.

What does it matter to him whether she is drunk or not?Prajna was a little impatient, and said angrily, "What are you doing, sir?"

"Oops! I'm deflated!" Suddenly, a monstrous laugh came over, and Dr. Huo, dressed in black, came over. He drank the red wine in one gulp, and said, "This wine tastes really good!"

Huo Yubai and Banruo frowned, both wanting to kick this man out of the door.

Dr. Huo smiled, and said to Huo Yubai: "Why can't you drink alcohol when you're underage? I think it's normal for someone like Xiaobei to bring me a child back! You can't even drink alcohol. Yubai, your tutor is too young." Strict!"

Huo Yubai heard the words, subconsciously said: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Dr. Huo shrugged and gave Banruo a glass of red wine, "Here, take it and show him a drink! Tell him that you are not afraid of him at all!"

Banruo looked at him like he was looking at a psychopath, "Why should I do such a childish thing? Also, why are you afraid of him?"

"Okay! Okay! The young girl is really very thoughtful." Dr. Huo blinked and winked at Huo Yubai, "It seems that I am meddling in my own business. There are internal conflicts in this family, and I, an outsider, really cares. It is inconvenient to intervene!"

"What's inside and outside? I have nothing to do with him!" Banruo felt that this person was really hopeless.

"The earth is round, and everyone on it can have a relationship with another person. If there is not yet, it can only be said that the time has not come or the effort is not enough."

After Dr. Huo finished speaking, he looked at Huo Yubai and asked with a beseeching look in his eyes, "Yubai, do you think I'm right?"

Huo Yubai looked at Banruo's expression of disdain for him, but couldn't pick it off cleanly, and felt it was funny.

Inexplicably, he felt much more at ease, and the depressed depression just now disappeared in an instant.

Brother, he has always had the temperament of fearing that the world will not be chaotic. If he casually disrupts the situation, he may not realize that everything has been hit by him.He, Huo Yubai, is indeed Prajna's destined person. If there is no accident, the two may even get married in the future.

Thinking of her cold but really funny temperament, Huo Yubai suddenly felt less resistance in his heart.

"Brother, truth doesn't matter right or wrong."

Dr. Huo froze for a moment, squinted his eyes and said, "Yu Bai, you are still treacherous! You have the demeanor of big brother back then!"

After he finished speaking, he decided not to be a light bulb. Looking at Su Yi and Huo Qingcheng who were staring at them not far away, Dr. Huo said:

"Su Qi, your nasolabial folds are getting darker, come to my house another day, and I will straighten and iron you!"

Su Qi: "..."

"Qingcheng, your cigarette pouch is getting bigger again, go home another day, and I will suck out the excess fat for you."

Huo Qingcheng said with black lines on his face: "Brother, are you drunk? My name is Lying Silkworm!"

Dr. Huo staggered away. Behind him, Huo Yubai drank the red wine in one gulp, and said forcefully to Banruo:
"Students should look like students and want to drink, wait until they are adults!"

After Xu Shi heard what he said, the waiter at the scene no longer gave Banruo wine. Banruo was extremely depressed, and his impression of him was even worse!

Banruo took a sip of the juice depressedly, and suddenly saw a disgusting person standing not far away from the corner of his eye.

Zhou Qianyun, why is she here?

Seeing her, Zhou Qianyun was also very surprised, she never thought that Prajna could come in on such an occasion!You know, in order to win a project so that he could establish a relationship with a certain developer in this project, Zhou Jiancheng managed to rely on the relationship and spent a lot of money to get the admission invitation card, and she begged It took a long time before Zhou Jiancheng decided to bring her to see the world. How could a poor man like Banruo get in this kind of place?

Zhou Qianyun was a little displeased, she walked up, looked at Banruo and said, "How did you get in here?"

"Stupid?" Prajna sneered: "How did you get in, that's how I got in!"

"You..." Zhou Qianyun looked at Banruo's attire. She didn't expect that Banruo was so captivating after being carefully dressed. She couldn't help feeling sour, and looked at the necklace on Banruo's neck. Where did it come from? You definitely don’t have the money to buy a genuine one, so could it be that this necklace is a fake?”

Banruo raised the corner of her mouth and showed a contemptuous smile. She nodded and said, "Yes! It's fake!"

"I just said, how can you possibly afford a real jadeite necklace?" Zhou Qianyun felt a lot more balanced in an instant, "You are really vain, and you actually bought a fake one and wore it. This banquet is full of people who know what to buy. You Don't be afraid of being laughed at by others!"

At this moment, a foreigner wearing glasses came over. He was tall and dressed in a gray suit. He looked like an elegant gentleman. His eyes were staring at Banruo fanatically. To be precise, he was staring at the neck of Banruo. Emerald and diamond necklace.

"Miss, my name is Smith. If I read correctly, the necklace on your neck was produced by our company in 1933. I have seen it in our company's album." Smith said.

Prajna did not deny it.

Smith exclaimed: "My God! This necklace is really well preserved. After so many years, it is as good as the new one, no! It should be said to be more shiny than the new one. It is all raised by the years. !"

This is not due to Prajna, it can only be said that the original owner of this necklace loves it very much!

Because of Smith's special status, his arrival has attracted the attention of many people. Seeing him praising a necklace like this, everyone gathered around.

"Smith, you mean to say that this necklace is from Cartier?"

"Of course, although our brand's diamond necklaces are the most well-known, there have indeed been some high-quality emerald necklaces in history. This one was produced by us in 1933!"

Zhou Qianyun didn't believe it at all when she heard the words. She pointed to the necklace and hurriedly said, "Isn't this fake? Mr. Smith, take a closer look! It can't be real! Where did she get the money to buy such an expensive necklace?" ? I think it must be an imitation from somewhere!"

Smith was a little displeased, he suppressed his voice and said:
"Miss, I don't know why you say that, but your words are questioning my level! Could it be that I can't recognize our company's necklace? Besides, this level of jade is rare, even if If you want to imitate, you have to imitate emeralds above the imperial green level, do you think ordinary people will spend tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars to imitate a necklace?"

As soon as Smith's words fell, there was another discussion at the scene. Everyone thought that this necklace could cost hundreds of millions of dollars at most, but after hearing Smith's words, it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars to imitate an imitation product, so what about the genuine one?How much does a genuine product cost!

After all, Huo Qingcheng is a descendant of the Huo family. She can tell at a glance whether the jade is good or not. After listening to Smith's words, she only stared at Prajna without making a sound.

Seeing that everyone was still skeptical, Smith said to Huo Yubai: "This time I was only invited by Mr. Huo to attend this charity dinner. Putting aside business matters, Mr. Huo and I are very good friends in private. You should always believe in his ability, Mr. Huo, tell them, how much is this necklace worth?"

Huo Yubai looked at Banruo, she was indeed beautiful tonight, different from her usual clean attire, tonight she was like a wild rose in the night, mysterious and beautiful.He never liked to stare straight at girls, but because of Smith's question, he looked straight at the dazzling necklace.

Seeing him looking over, for some reason, Banruo always had a feeling, as if the heat in his eyes was not because of the necklace, but because of himself.

After a while, Huo Yubai seemed to finally understand, and then he closed his eyes and said:

"Since it is a treasure in 1933, its value is naturally immeasurable, but if you look at the price, if you put it in an auction, it will sell for at least [-] million The high price of renminbi.”

"[-] million?" This is far beyond everyone's estimate!

Smith heard this and nodded with satisfaction:

"Of course! Our brand's emerald necklaces are of course the best! After so many years, it's not impossible for this necklace to be sold as an antique!"

Everyone was stunned. They had never seen this little girl before, and they had never heard of the daughter of any family, but she could casually wear a necklace worth 2 million yuan, which is too exaggerated!

Banruo actually didn't expect it, she touched the cool necklace around her neck and fell into deep thought.At the beginning, I took pictures because the necklace looked very beautiful. She likes simple things. She bought it because she didn’t have any jewelry for this dinner. She really didn’t think the necklace was worth so much money. .

But since this necklace is so valuable, why did the man sell it so easily?
After hearing Huo Yubai's words, Zhou Qianyun was too shocked to speak.

She thought yesterday that she had slandered Banruo for stealing her bag, and she was complacent that 3 yuan was worth a lot, but she didn't expect that any necklace from Banruo was worth 3 million, [-] million!What concept?It's hard to say whether Zhou Jiancheng's entire net worth has so much money. She remembered that on the first day of school, in order to live in the lower bunk, Zhou Jiancheng planned to buy Banruo with an MP[-] player. When she sees this thing, she must be very rare, how could they think of it!Banruo is actually so rich that he doesn't care about that little money at all.

Zhou Qianyun suddenly felt hot on her face, as painful as if she had been slapped.

The celebrities in this circle did not forget what Zhou Qianyun said just now, they discussed privately:

"Where did this woman come from? How did she get in here? You can't even tell the real jade from the fake jade. This necklace is obviously made of imperial green jade! Does she really understand jade?"

"That's right! It can't be that you have never worn a good jadeite, right?" For a while, everyone pointed at Zhou Qianyun and talked about it. Zhou Qianyun's face was dull, and she disappeared immediately.

On the other hand, Banruo felt that it was not a glorious thing to be judged by others about her jewelry. Under the gaze of everyone, although she looked frank, she felt very uncomfortable in her heart. Is it possible that someone who divides people into grades and grades by money is different from Zhou Qianyun?

The hall was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe, so she greeted Mint, and she hid on a clean balcony to catch her breath.

The balcony was separated from the hall by a door and a layer of heavy curtains, Hannya took a breath, she looked at the dark starry sky outside the window, and felt that she really didn't like such a noisy place.

The balcony is in the shape of a circular arc, with a long side extension. Hanruo stands at the very corner of the balcony, pushes open the door and walks out. If you don't look carefully, you won't see her standing here.

She took a few breaths and felt much more at ease. At this moment, the balcony door was suddenly pushed open again, and a woman's voice came over.

"Second brother, can you talk with me here?" It was Su Yi's voice.

"Su Qi, what's the matter?" Huo Yubai's voice was always cold.

"Yes, I have something to do!" Su Qi seemed a little nervous, her voice was very urgent: "Second Brother Huo, that's it, I want to tell you..."

Banruo thought of the words she overheard in the bathroom today, but she didn't expect that she overheard their conversation again now. She was about to leave when Su Qi suddenly said:
"Second Brother Huo, I don't believe you didn't realize it. I have liked you for many years. Since I was a child, I have always thought that I must marry you when I grow up."

Huo Yubai's voice was a little helpless, he said:
"Su Qi, let me go, it's bad for your reputation to be seen!"

Su Qi was a little excited and hugged him tightly:
"What reputation is not famous! I don't care at all. Over the years, I have always wanted to be better, to stand at the same height as you, and to be with you in the future, but you don't even look at me, Huo Second brother, I want to ask you, do you like me or not!"

Huo Yubai didn't seem to expect her to say this, his voice was still cold:
"Su Qi, you're drunk, you don't know what you're talking about now."

"No! I'm not drunk!" Su Qi felt a little bit desperate, she said: "Second brother Huo, I just want to know what's in your heart. Could it be that I'm not good enough? Don't you ever like me at all? ?"

She originally thought that even if Huo Yubai didn't like her, he would answer very tactfully, but who knows, Huo Yubai's words were unprecedentedly firm.

"Su Yi, if you must seek an answer, then let me tell you, my answer is no."

Su Qi was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect him to refuse so thoroughly.

"Second brother, I don't believe it! Are you saying that I have a bad figure, a bad face, or a bad family background? Ah! Don't you have any feelings for me?"

Huo Yubai seemed a little surprised by her gaffe, he looked at Su Yi, and said seriously:

"You are good in everything, even so, I have to like you?"

"Then who do you like!"

Su Qi persisted, "I don't believe it, these years, you don't even have a woman by your side, could it be..." She thought of a possibility, she couldn't believe it: "Could it be that you like men?"

Hearing this, Huo Yubai seemed to have heard a very funny joke, his eyes were dimmed, staring at Su Yi, his tone was calm but indifferent:

"Su Qi, I just don't like you."

Yes!He doesn't like women, he just doesn't like her!Su Qi was hit hard. She has always been excellent. From the inside to the outside, there is nothing that outsiders can find wrong. Some entertainment newspapers once slandered her for plastic surgery and bought a prestigious school. In fact, she has nothing wrong with it. It's not true, but her proud breasts are all true!Huo Yubai doesn't like a person like her who is perfect from the inside out?

"Second brother, you..."

She gradually began to cry, she seemed to be enduring it all the time, but such a blunt refusal was beyond her expectation, Su Qi couldn't hold it back in the end, she glanced at Huo Yubai's unmoving eyes, and suddenly understood, What he said were all from his heart, thinking of his secret love for so many years, Su Qi left crying.

Banruo felt embarrassed, she really had no intention of listening to others, it was just such an embarrassing thing, if she wanted to leave, then Su Qi would be even more embarrassed and wanted to jump off the building, if she didn't leave, the balcony is so small, even if she covered herself Her ears could still hear clearly, so she didn't want to leave or leave.

"come out!"

Huo Yubai's cold voice suddenly came over. "Haven't you finished listening? Why don't you dare to come out?"

Banruo was stunned for a moment, how did he know he was standing here?Could it be that he knew all about it?Then why didn't he point it out earlier, instead let Su Qi finish talking in front of her.

She went out and looked at him expressionlessly. "I'm just here to blow some air, I don't intend to listen to you."

Huo Yubai took a deep look at her, "Did you hear everything?"

"In such a small place, I said I didn't hear it, would you believe it?"

"Su Qi drank too much wine and said some nonsense, just forget it after you hear it."

Huo Yubai's voice was low, his eyes were in the dark night, as if there were shooting stars passing by.

Banruo smiled, she didn't understand why this man explained to herself, it was a little strange, she was not him, she didn't care which woman he was related to, besides, didn't she see it with her celestial eyes?He was never innocent!

Thinking of this, Prajna sneered and said, "Mr. Huo is very lucky."

"This is not a blessing! The girl said something wrong." Huo Yubai frowned, "Have you never refused someone else's confession?"

Prajna immediately replied: "Of course not!"

"Really?" Huo Yubai suddenly raised the corners of his lips and looked at her with interest.

Prajna suddenly had a bad premonition.
