Chapter 31 Can You Be Awkward?
Gu Sheng glanced at Jiang Huachen and was about to speak when he felt a small hand put into his sleeve.
Sliding up his wrist, he held on tightly.
"Gu Sheng."
Gu Sheng closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he touched Jiang Huachen with his other hand distantly.
Very helpless.
Jiang En raised his hands and high-fived Qian Zhou, "Yeah!"
Qian Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and saw Gu Sheng signaling Jiang Huachen to sit on the sofa.
He was pulled by Jiang En to the backyard, and Jiang En greeted Jiang Huachen.
"Brother, you guys chat, Qian Zhou and I have something to talk about."
Qianzhou opened a parasol and sat with Jiang En on the small steps beside the artificial pond.
"Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Jiang En made a mysterious gesture to silence him, then took out his cell phone and searched for a screenshot of the ticket purchase in his photo album.
"There's going to be an overseas auction in a few days. It's said that a top foreign artist will be participating, but that's not the main point!"
Qian Zhou asked, "What is that? Is there something you want in the auction?"
"Yes, yes."
Gann excitedly opened the promotional video. The cover of the video was a picture of a luxury cruise ship sailing at sunset.
The floor-to-ceiling windows of the cruise ship cabins are filled with the golden glow of the setting sun, creating a sense of decadent beauty.
Gan En simply slid the progress bar, skipping the introduction of the auction items and jumping to 2 minutes and 45 seconds in the three-minute promotional video.
That frame is a front shot of the gift shop.
"Look!"
Gann zoomed in on the image. On the least conspicuous shelf in the gift shop, in the third row, there were several unclear pink dolls.
Qian Zhou didn't understand what was going on. "What is this?"
"This is the limited edition pink summer edition of Oiiai Cat!! It's super hard to get."
Qianzhou remembered that when he first went to Jiang En's house, there was a row of these silly little cat dolls on his sofa.
"Can't you buy it?" he asked.
Jiang En blinked. "You can buy them, but I've sold out of them online. I'm still six short of a hundred."
Qian Zhou's eyelids twitched wildly. "So you're going to this auction just for these little kitten dolls?"
"Yes, I have booked a VIP box. Will you accompany me?" Jiang En extended his hand to him very sincerely.
Qianzhou doesn't want to go.
"I'll treat you to some Australian lobster."
Qian Zhou shook Jiang En's hand and said, "Deal."
Not long after, Jiang Huachen came to call Jiang En to go home, looking a little unhappy.
Cheng Xiao looked calm. He and Jiang En got into the car. Jiang Huachen didn't speak to Gu Sheng anymore.
The black SUV slowly drove out of the front yard and left.
"What did you talk about?"
Gu Sheng looked down at his watch and said, "We talked about a new cooperative project."
"You and Jiang Huachen are actually working together?" Qian Zhou was a little surprised.
Gu Sheng seemed to be in a good mood. He pinched Qian Zhou's neck and smiled.
"He lost 80 million in profit, which is his apology to me."
"We plan to develop a new type of auction area along the coast, which will essentially reduce tariffs. This method will be tested in the offshore auction in the next two days."
“If it’s feasible, then we’ll start the process.”
Gu Sheng rarely talked to Qian Zhou about company matters. This was the first time he had told him so much.
Qian Zhou murmured: "Sea auction..."
"Is it the one that's going on for three consecutive days and has already started selling tickets?"
Gu Sheng nodded, "Well, where did you hear that?"
"I want to go play with Jiang En. He wants to buy a doll, and I want to eat Australian lobster."
Gu Sheng thought for a while and said:
"no."
"Ah? Why? I already promised Gann."
Gu Sheng stood by the door, stepped aside to let Qian Zhou in, and said, "It's not safe."
Unsafe? Wasn't this done by Gu Sheng or Jiang Huachen? What danger could there be in their territory?
Gu Sheng closed the door and said, "Follow me."
He walked ahead, entered the study, and turned on the computer. "The offshore auction has been outsourced to an overseas partner. They arrange everything from guards to security. If you want to go, bring bodyguards with you."
Qian Zhou was looking forward to it, "Be my bodyguard."
Gu Sheng refused, "I'm busy."
Qian Zhou crossed his arms and blocked Gu Sheng's computer screen with his hands. Perhaps it was because Gu Sheng indulged him too much.
He is not scared at all now.
Gu Sheng looked up at him and gave him an ambiguous smile.
He was wearing loose black pajamas, and the muscles under his long clothes and trousers were faintly outlined.
His smile is a little evil, and he doesn't look like a good person at all.
"Are you a little clingy now?"
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked him.
"No, no, I'm just asking. I don't really want you to go with me. If you're not here, I can find someone else. It's not like I need you."
Qian Zhou retracted his arm and pretended to run away, saying a lot of words to make Gu Sheng angry.
The smile on Gu Sheng's face gradually disappeared. He put one hand around the boy's waist, frowned and asked, "Who else do you want to find?"
Qianzhou stared at him, and within three seconds, his momentum was gone.
"...Jiang En."
Gu Sheng let him go, then clicked on a person's report and said, "Identify this person."
Qianzhou looked at the computer screen.
He was a man with golden eyes, authentic Western looks, a high nose bridge, and deep eye sockets, and he was very handsome.
It's a pity that he lost one eye.
It can be seen that the right eye is unfocused, the pupil color is lighter than the other, and the look in his eyes as he stares at the camera is somewhat depressed.
He looked listless and weak.
Name: Bibert.
Gender: Male.
Height: 192.
Qian Zhou suddenly asked, "Gu Sheng, how tall are you?"
Every time he looked at Gu Sheng, he had to tilt his head back. While staring at that handsome face, he could still catch a glimpse of his Adam's apple out of the corner of his eye.
"1.93 meters." Gu Sheng said.
Qian Zhou choked, "So high..."
One centimeter taller than the man named Bibert, Gu Sheng has very big muscles and is indeed qualified to be a professional bodyguard.
Qian Zhou's fingertips touched the mouse pad, then squeezed into Gu Sheng's fingers, pushed his hand away, and took the mouse from him.
He leaned over the table with his butt sticking out, flipping through the documents.
Gu Sheng's gaze fell on the exposed slender waist, and he looked at the round curve without any hesitation.
"Art Prime Minister, Bibert is also a designer... Hey, his work is so ugly. Why do so many people abroad admire this weird and dark style?"
"He is also the general manager of this auction. He seems to be quite famous than Bert."
Qian Zhou swung his legs and flipped to the bottom of the document. After reading it, he asked:
"Gu Sheng, do you want me to greet him on your behalf?"
Gu Sheng didn't answer for a long time. The study was so quiet that the only sound was the sound of Qian Zhou sliding the mouse on the table.
Qian Zhou didn't notice that Gu Sheng's gaze was fixed on a certain place.
Qianzhou enlarged Bibert's masterpiece little by little and carefully observed the details on it.
The entire painting is filled with black oil-painted satin. A triangular hole is torn in the tattered fabric, revealing a blood-red eye.
The white of the eye was outlined in a messy curve with silver dye, and the red satin falling downwards was as sticky and dazzling as blood.
The whole scene is messy and crazy.
Qian Zhou rubbed his calf with his toes. The painting made his back feel a little cold.
"Gu Sheng, why don't you say anything?" Qian Zhou put the mouse back to its original position.
He was suddenly held down by two large hands on his waist.
"Huh?" Qian Zhou was confused.
The veins on Gu Sheng's arms spread little by little, and he said, unable to bear it any longer:
"Can you please stop being awkward?"
