Chapter 24: I prefer Ling Yi. In this life, I want your eyes and heart...
In a corner of the hall, Chu Qingtang looked at Ling Yi's face with burning eyes, not hiding the love in his eyes: "Ling Yi, you are so beautiful."
Ling Yi touched his face, looking puzzled: "Do you like my face?"
Chu Qingtang nodded vigorously.
"You like good-looking people, why don't you look in the mirror more often?" Ling Yi asked curiously.
Chu Qingtang looked surprised: "Ling Yi, are you praising me for my good looks?" Without waiting for Ling Yi to answer, she frowned in distress: "But I don't like girls! I like boys. Otherwise, I would definitely carry a small mirror with me."
Ling Yi remained silent.
Chu Qingtang didn't mind and looked at Ling Yi expectantly: "Ling Yi, you like me too, okay? When we get married in the future, the baby we give birth to will definitely be very good-looking."
Then he successfully saw that the boy who had always had a calm face finally had a blush on his cheeks, and a cunning flashed in Chu Qingtang's eyes.
Ling Yi quickly calmed down and thought of a question: "What if I get disfigured? Will you still like me?"
Fool, Chu Qingtang said in his heart.
Why did she fall in love with Ling Yi?
It starts with appearance, is loyal to character, and falls into preference.
It is said that girls have a hero-saver complex and will fall in love with the hero who saves her.
She felt that this was not right. If the one who saved her life was a handsome guy, then she should "repay the life-saving grace with her own body". But if the one who saved her life had shifty features, then she could only "repay the favor in the next life by tying a grass ring".
In her previous life, Ling Yi saved her and always met her aesthetic standards, so she fell in love with him.
When she wanted to get closer to him, she found out that he already had someone he liked.
He took good care of the girl and showed his partiality for her in every way.
Even if there is no response.
Later, Ling Yi became her unbearable regret.
Chu Qingtang came back to her senses from her memories, looked at Ling Yi's clear eyes, and pretended to be distressed, "I don't know! I can't give you an answer for something that hasn't happened yet."
The answer is of course yes.
But she knew Ling Yi's past experiences and knew that this kind of people were very cautious. They longed for sincerity but would not easily believe it.
The only things that can move them are sincerity and the affection that grows over time.
Ling Mo was quite satisfied with this answer, and finally said, "I don't hate you. My mother said that we can't fall in love before we reach adulthood. Let's start by being friends!"
"Okay," Chu Qingtang agreed readily and put forward his own request, "but our engagement cannot be cancelled. So, when you are an adult and can date, you can't find someone else before I agree to cancel the engagement."
Ling Yi had no objection, but looking at Chu Qingtang's bright eyes, he reminded: "I don't like you now, and I may not like you in the future."
Chu Qingtang didn't care: "It's okay, I won't let other girls get close to you. If you don't like others, you will always like me in the future."
Ling Yi thought about it, felt it was feasible, and nodded, "Okay."
Chu Qingtang raised his eyebrows: "Don't you think I'm overbearing, arrogant, and unreasonable?"
Ling Yi was stunned for a moment, then realized what Chu Qingtang was referring to and shook his head: "It's normal to be possessive of the things you love." Just like him, he hopes that his father and mother belong to him alone.
So he hated his nominal elder brother Han Chengyu and didn't want him to return to his mother at all.
After thinking for a while, Ling Yi also promised: "If I still don't like you by then, although I can't date you, I can marry you." After a pause, he added: "If you still like me by then."
Looking at the serious Ling Yi, Chu Qingtang smiled.
The novelty will pass, love will fade or even disappear, but responsibility will not.
Ling Yi, in this life, the person I want you to have in your eyes and heart is me.
"Okay!" Chu Qingtang rolled his eyes and asked, "Then when you go to high school, you have to be in the same class with me!"
"Aren't you going to be a sophomore in high school when school starts again?"
Ling Yuan told him some things about Chu Qingtang these two days, and Ling Yi still remembered it.
"Yeah, that's right. I can stay back a grade to accompany you!" Chu Qingtang said nonchalantly.
Ling Yi thought for a moment and said, "I'll skip a grade and go to the second year of high school!"
Chu Qingtang blinked his eyes: "Have you learned all the knowledge for the first year of high school?"
"I have almost finished learning other subjects by myself. I haven't started chemistry yet. I can finish it in about a month."
Chu Qingtang's eyes lit up: "Let me teach you! I'm very good at chemistry. I took the final exam last semester..." Well, it's been a while, and I can't quite remember how many points she got in the chemistry final exam of her freshman year.
"More than 90 points." After a pause, Chu Qingtang insisted.
At the same time, I secretly made up my mind to go back and start studying chemistry.
Although she did well in science in high school and had no pressure to get over 90 points on the exams, after more than ten years, she had already forgotten everything she had learned to her teachers!
Ling Yi did not refuse and agreed.
Looking at his watch, Ling Yi said, "The auction is about to start. I have to go to my mother's place."
"Go ahead!" Chu Qingtang said with a smile, "I have a little sister over there, I'll go find her."
Looking at Ling Yi's back, Chu Qingtang's eyes became calm.
Going back to ten years ago, it took her some time to get her parents to agree to rekindle her engagement with Ling Yi.
I originally wanted my father to communicate with Mr. Ling and bring Ling Yi back to the Ling family in City A.
But the answer he didn't expect was that he would come back with his parents in two months.
This is something that never happened in the previous life.
I wonder if Aunt Ling was also reborn...
Regardless, this is a good thing.
She likes Ling Yi, so she also hopes that he will be liked by everyone.
Watching Ling Yi's back disappear from his sight, a smile reappeared in Chu Qingtang's eyes.
Ling Yi, you had someone in your previous life, and I came here first in this life. I will make you like me!
I deserve your love more than Xie Yuyao!
On the other side, Ling Siyan and the others had moved to another hall, waiting for the auction to begin.
All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the charity foundation.
The host soon came on stage and announced the start of the auction after a brief speech.
"The first lot is the Violet Kiss earrings designed by the internationally renowned jewelry designer Master M. The earrings are made of extremely rare purple diamonds. You can see how dreamy and mysterious the light emitted by this purple diamond is. Without further ado, its starting price is--" The auctioneer paused deliberately to create a tense atmosphere.
The guests held their breath unconsciously.
"10 million. Each bid must not be less than 1 million. Now..." The auctioneer raised his voice: "The bidding officially begins!"
Ling Siyan whispered to Lu Xiao beside her: "What do you think about taking a picture of these earrings and giving them to Qingtang?"
Lu Xiao also whispered back: "I think it suits you better. Dreamy, noble, and elegant, it suits you very well. Little girl..."
"Is pink more suitable?" Lu Xiao asked with some hesitation and uncertainty in his tone.
"Straight male aesthetics." Ling Siyan complained, and then looked at the earrings on the auction table, "I don't like wearing earrings, they are cumbersome."
Hearing that Ling Siyan didn't like it, and taking a look at the black diamond earrings on Ling Siyan's earlobes, Lu Xiao decisively changed his tone: "You can take the photo, I think it suits the girl's temperament."
"Don't be in a hurry. Wait until others have bid almost the same price before you make your move."
At the back of the auction seat, as soon as the Violet Kiss appeared, Su Ranran next to Han Chengyu exclaimed in a low voice: "What beautiful earrings."
At the same time, Han Zhiyan also tugged at her mother's sleeve: "Mom, I like this earring, can you take a picture of it for me?"
Han Chengyu frowned when he heard this: "Zhiyan, Ranran also likes this earring, can you give it to her?"
Han Zhiyan was about to blurt out "Why should I give in?" but Meng Shuyue secretly pinched her arm and shook his head slightly at her.
Han Zhiyan stopped talking, but her eyes were full of indignation.
Meng Shuyue looked at Han Chengyu with a smile and said softly, "Chengyu, since Ranran likes it, give it to Ranran!"
Han Chengyu smiled slightly: "Thank you, Aunt Meng."
At this time, the price of Violet Kiss had been raised to 23 million.
Su Ranran seemed to have just recovered from her shock and quickly waved her hand: "No, Chengyu, I just think it's beautiful, I don't mean to want it, you don't have to buy it for me."
Han Zhiyan heard it, rolled her eyes, and secretly said "Pooh" in her heart, "White Lotus, why are you pretending so much?"
Han Chengyu's eyes flashed with tenderness, "I want to buy it for you. After we confirmed our relationship, I haven't given you any gifts yet, so don't refuse."
Su Ranran frowned: "But this is too expensive. You can just buy me a piece from a jewelry store. As long as it's from you, I'll like it."
Han Chengyu's heart, which had been depressed since he met Ling Siyan, finally warmed up. Fortunately, Ranran was always by his side.
"Ranran, are you trying to be polite with me?" Han Chengyu pretended to be displeased.
Su Ranran quickly shook her head, "No. That's not what I meant, Chengyu."
"That's it." Han Chengyu raised the number plate in his hand and added 5 million to the current offer of 25 million: "30 million."
Most of the bidders had given up, and only two people were still bidding, but the increase in the price was 1 million each, and it was obvious that they were almost reaching the limit.
After two rounds of bidding, the price was raised to 40 million.
At this time, Han Chengyu was also struggling.
He only has 50 million yuan of funds available.
Fortunately, the two people have given up bidding.
"Guest No. 53 bid 40 million Universal Coins. Is there a higher bid?"
Ling Siyan didn't wait any longer and raised the number plate in her hand: "50 million."
The auctioneer's voice became even more excited: "50 million! Guest No. 3 bids 50 million universal coins. Is there a higher bid?"
Following Ling Siyan's bid, the originally quiet venue suddenly became filled with whispers.
Han Chengyu's expression froze as he looked at the figure in front of him, disbelief flashing in his eyes.
"Wow, it's so lively! What are you talking about? Let me listen too." A lazy and casual voice came from behind.
Everyone turned to look when they heard the sound.
The young man in a white suit had one hand in his pocket, with an unruly smile in his eyes, which made his overly handsome face look somewhat devilish. He walked casually and went straight to the empty seat No. 2 at the front and sat down.
The venue fell completely silent because of this person's arrival.
The same thought popped up in everyone's mind: Why did this evil star come?
