Gu Ci's pale face was as white as fresh snow, with two faint blushes on her cheeks, like the withering cherry blossoms on the branches, but she still looked a little sick.
But those gentle and tranquil eyes were clear and clever, as well as her own elegant and bookish air, which added a bit of vivid beauty to her.
She shook her head gently. "I'm fine now. Anyway, that was the first exhibition in my life. Maybe... I won't have the chance to hold another exhibition in the future. I don't want to leave any regrets for myself..."
"Aci, you are saying such depressing things again. Didn't Doctor Qi say that as long as you take good care of yourself, you can live a long life."
Gu Qinglian, who was standing by, couldn't bear to hear her say such self-pitying words.
Gu Ci smiled when she heard this, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. Director Meng, I know that if I attend the opening ceremony, it will definitely cause trouble for you and the museum, and it will also put you at risk.
But... I'm sorry, I still want to be willful for once..."
Seeing her so humble and pitiful, Gu Qinglian felt so distressed, "This exhibition means a lot to you. You are the protagonist of this exhibition. Isn't it your responsibility to attend the opening ceremony?"
Qiao Na felt uncomfortable because Gu Qinglian's words seemed to be meant to comfort Gu Ci, but were actually meant to criticize and ridicule the curator.
He immediately replied in a dignified manner, "Ms. Gu, our curator is just worried about your health, and the process planning for your participation in the opening ceremony has already been finalized.
If you don't participate, we will have to change the plan temporarily. It will be launched soon, and we will not increase our workload if we have nothing to do."
Being humiliated, Gu Qinglian was furious. "Who do you think you are? We are talking, so why should we say such a thing..."
"sister!"
Gu Ci stopped him in time.
She looked at Qiao Na and Meng Sheng apologetically, "Assistant Qiao, Director Meng, I'm so sorry..."
Meng Sheng glanced at her leisurely, with a smile on his lips and a warm look in his eyes, without any hostility or sharpness.
There were a few needles hidden in Gu Ci's words just now. Although they were soft, Gu Qinglan's knife was too sharp.
Hit wherever you point.
"Ms. Gu, I prefer to keep it simple."
Her voice was neither fast nor slow, and seemed to be nonsensical, but it actually contained deep meaning.
Gu Ci didn't know if she understood or not. She smiled and said, "Yeah, me too. Then let's keep the process simple. Thank you Director Meng and Assistant Qiao for your hard work. When the exhibition is over, I will definitely treat all the staff of the museum to a meal together."
"Miss Gu, you're too polite." Meng Sheng smiled and replied indifferently, "Since it has been agreed upon, Miss Gu, please have a good rest. We will leave first and see you at Art Gallery No. 1."
"Okay, Director Meng, take care." Gu Ci nodded slightly to her.
When turning to leave, Meng Sheng inadvertently glanced at the small DIY items and two black game controllers on the coffee table.
She didn't look at it any further, just looked away and left.
After talking to Joanna for a few words, she took the elevator to the 17th floor.
Before I reached the door of the ward, my cell phone suddenly rang.
[Ning Weiwei was released on bail by her mother Lv Qiuling ten minutes ago.]
Meng Sheng paused, a look of surprise flashing in his calm eyes.
Lu Qiuling went to Beijing again?
Ning Weiwei was also released on bail!
It is said that Ning Weiwei had completely cut off contact with Jing'an City since she started hiding in order to escape Yu Qionghua's clutches.
Last year, Lv Qiuling returned to Jing'an City with great disappointment.
Why did you suddenly come to Beijing?
If you mean you saw the report, then the report about Ning Weiwei was published more than a month ago. If Lu Qiuling wanted to come, it would be impossible for her to wait until now.
So, is there someone behind this?
Who is this person? What is his purpose?
*
Outside Beijing Women's Prison.
The sun at the end of April is not too strong, but it is still a bit dazzling.
Ning Weiwei walked out of the iron gate. A gentle breeze blew past, lifting a corner of her clothes, but it could not blow away the haze lingering in her heart.
More than a month in prison has made her lose a lot of weight, her eyes are dull, and her expression is a little dazed.
There were several noticeable scratches on her once pretty and innocent face and fair neck. They had already scabbed over, but they looked like fresh wounds.
It was obvious that she had not had a good time in there during this period.
She slowly raised her head and looked into the distance, and her dull eyes slowly regained some spirit.
Oh, it was the first time she discovered that different skies were different.
Even the air.
Although Lu Qiuling felt a little disappointed with her, she no longer had any expectations of her.
But someone sent her a text message telling her that Ning Weiwei had been arrested, and she still couldn't help but want to come to Beijing to take a look.
Ning Weiwei's crime was not a serious one. She was just sent to prison by a well-known first-class lawyer in Beijing. If she wants to be released on bail, she has to go through layers of procedures and have a lawyer's guarantee.
By the time these procedures were completed, Ning Weiwei's two-month sentence would have expired.
But to Lu Qiuling's surprise, the procedure was completed in just three days.
It was as if someone had greeted me on purpose.
But she couldn't contact the person who sent her the message, even the phone call couldn't get through.
Now seeing her once beautiful daughter become like this, Lu Qiuling's eyes turned red.
After all, she was the daughter she had carried in her arms for ten months and raised with great care.
No matter how many faults she has, as a mother, her tolerance seems to be greater than imagined.
She reached out her hand tremblingly, wanting to touch Ning's slightly thin cheek.
"Weiwei, Weiwei..."
