1364 Mysterious Gift

Qiao Xi suddenly raised her eyes and asked, “Ah Zheng, what gift are you going to give me?”

“Guess.” Gu Zheng’s tone carried a trace of amus.e.m.e.nt.

Qiao Xi supported her chin and pondered for a few seconds. “There’s nothing special about the items at this auction. Only the violin, which is the finale, is a little different. However, I don’t understand why the violin is so precious.”

Gu Zheng looked at her with a smile and did not answer.

Qiao Xi continued, “Actually, this violin was made by Fourth Brother. It has always been with Grandpa. I used to play it when I was free.

“When I was in the lounge today, I heard from Guan Hui that she wants this violin. Huo Yuzhou will probably bid for it and give it to her. After all, Huo Yuzhou is the head of the Brook family. He can’t bid for a 200,000 yuan violin to give to the future Mrs. Huo, so he specially instructed us to make the violin the finale to show off his n.o.ble ident.i.ty and status.”

When she thought about this, Qiao Xi suddenly widened her eyes and asked in surprise, “Ah Zheng, could it be that the gift you want to give me is also this violin?”

Gu Zheng looked at her meaningfully and was about to speak when Qiao Xi pulled him back. “Gu Zheng, actually, I don’t really like this violin. I just played it a few times when I was bored. If I really liked it, Fourth Brother would have given me a similar violin a long time ago. You don’t have to spend money to buy this for me.”

“Xi Xi.” The smile on Gu Zheng’s face grew wider. “Do you think I’ll give you such an ordinary gift? Since it’s a gift I’m giving you, it’ll naturally have to satisfy you.”

Gu Zheng had long known that this violin belonged to Xue Liang. Since it belonged to Xue Liang, Xi Xi did not think it was all that interesting. Although he did not lack money, there was no need for him to spend it on this.

Qiao Xi came back to her senses and had a curious expression. “Then what exactly are you giving me?”

“You’ll know when the time comes,” Gu Zheng said mysteriously. Qiao Xi would definitely like this gift.

The more mysterious Gu Zheng was, the more curious Qiao Xi was. Apart from that violin, there was really nothing special about the items at the auction. Could it be that the gift Gu Zheng wanted to give was not from the auction?

On the other hand, Huo Yuzhou and Guan Hui had also taken their seats. As soon as they entered, Huo Yuzhou saw Qiao Xi sitting in the middle. His gaze would land on her from time to time.

“Yuzhou…” Guan Hui’s voice carried a trace of grievance, but her eyes were filled with resentment. Her man was looking at another woman. How could she take this lying down? However, she was afraid of making Huo Yuzhou angry, so she could only find a reason to interrupt his burning gaze.

“What do you think of that porcelain ornament? Why don’t we take it and put it in the living room?”

Huo Yuzhou retracted his gaze and instantly exposed Guan Hui’s thoughts. He frowned unhappily. “Don’t forget my warning. Watch your ident.i.ty.”

Guan Hui’s body trembled as she lowered her eyes in fear. Hatred surged in her heart.

She had deliberately chased Qiao Xi away and been by Huo Yuzhou’s side for so many years. Even a dog should have grown feelings for her. She did not understand why Huo Yuzhou only had Qiao Xi in his heart and did not care about her feelings at all.

Bang!

The gavel fell, and the porcelain ornament was auctioned off.

Qiao Xi was not interested. These things were not interesting, but it was an auction held by Gu Corporation, after all. Song Shijing casually raised his placard a few times and bid for three things before stopping.

Guan Hui had taken a liking to a few pieces of jewelry. She looked at the man beside her, her eyes filled with pleading. She hoped that Huo Yuzhou could bid for them and give them to her, but Huo Yuzhou ignored her.

Soon, it was the last item. Everyone knew that the finale item was a violin. At first, they did not understand why an ordinary violin would be the finale item. However, later on, they heard that Mrs. Huo had been thinking about this violin for many years. This violin must be extraordinary.

As soon as the violin was placed on stage, Guan Hui’s eyes lit up. She looked at the man anxiously. “Yuzhou…”

Huo Yuzhou did not respond to Guan Hui. Instead, he ordered his a.s.sistant, “500,000.”

Guan Hui was instantly overwhelmed by pleasant surprise, and the resentment in her heart dissipated. She felt that Huo Yuzhou probably asked her to apologize to Qiao Xi because he did not want to offend Gu Zheng. After all, it had already been six years. Even if Huo Yuzhou had some feelings for Qiao Xi, they would have vanished with the pa.s.sage of time.

She had been by Huo Yuzhou’s side for so many years. Huo Yuzhou still cared about her. Otherwise, he would not be bidding for this violin to give to her. Moreover, before this, Guan Hui had already asked around. Huo Yuzhou didn’t intend to attend the auction at first. He only specially rushed over when he found out that this violin would be getting auctioned.
