Chapter 34 A Gift Delivered to Your Door
When she saw it clearly, Lin Youning retracted her gaze, raised her eyebrows slightly, and thought to herself - Uncle Li and Aunt Yang really understand Gu Huaichen.
This stinky man is not much different from other men.
Lin Youning was complaining in her heart, but before she could walk up to Gu Huaichen, he suddenly walked towards her.
Seeing him approaching, Lin Youning blinked and asked in surprise, "Why are you——"
Before she could finish the rest of the sentence, Gu Huaichen raised his hand to signal her.
Lin Youning blinked slightly, put her hand on him, held his arm and asked, "Want to go in together?"
Gu Huaichen: "I want an invitation."
Lin Youning didn't.
Lin Youning said "oh" and had no doubt about it.
In general, invitations are indeed required.
The two walked side by side, looking very well matched. People around them watched this scene, some whispered and some kept silent.
"Is that the new wife that Gu Huaichen revealed on WeChat Moments?"
“I think so.”
"This Mrs. Gu is said to be the daughter of the Lin family. She is really beautiful."
"Lin Mingqi is basically good."
"Which genes?" someone scoffed.
“…”
Lin Youning and Gu Huaichen could not hear the people who were talking. Others dared to talk in front of Lin Youning, but they did not dare to talk in front of Gu Huaichen.
Of course, neither of them would care too much.
As the two walked into the auction hall, a partner of the Gu Group came up to greet them, "Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu."
Gu Huaichen nodded slightly and introduced Lin Youning: "This is President Zhao."
Lin Youning was wearing a well-tailored cheongsam, dignified and elegant, like a lady from the Republic of China era. She was dignified and generous, and smiled at Mr. Zhao appropriately, "Mr. Zhao."
"Mrs. Gu is so beautiful." President Zhao and Gu Huaichen said, "President Gu has good taste."
Gu Huaichen smiled: "Mr. Zhao has a good eye."
After a brief greeting, Gu Huaichen took Lin Youning away.
After sitting down at the designated seat, Lin Youning whispered to Gu Huaichen, "I don't like that President Zhao."
The man looked at her in a strange way.
Gu Huaichen closed his eyes, "Got it."
Lin Youning was stunned: "What do you mean by 'know'?"
"Literally." Gu Huaichen looked at her sideways, and noticed the hairpin in her hair. He raised his eyebrows and said, "The hairpin is nice."
Lin Youning: “…”
She was slightly speechless, looked at him in disbelief, and asked with wide eyes, "Only the hairpin is good?"
Obviously she is a nice person, okay?
Oh no, she is extremely beautiful.
Although she admitted that the hairpin given by Wen Ci was very beautiful, but...how could Gu Huaichen only praise the hairpin.
Glancing at the corners of Lin Youning's lips that were instantly lowered, Gu Huaichen explained in a low voice: "What I mean is that this hairpin looks a little familiar."
"Ah?" Lin Youning was surprised: "My friend lent it to me. Are you sure it looks familiar?"
She subconsciously wanted to take off the hairpin, but just as she raised her hand, she was stopped by Gu Huaichen, "Don't worry, maybe you saw it wrong."
He paused and asked, "What does your friend do?"
"Look at the cheongsam I'm wearing," said Lin Youning.
Gu Huaichen lowered his eyes, his gaze involuntarily lingering on her slender neck and prominent chest for a few seconds, "The clothes are nice."
"...Obviously she is very beautiful." Lin Youning muttered.
Gu Huaichen curled his lips and did not deny it.
"Oh, that's not the point." Lin Youning remembered, "She makes cheongsams."
Gu Huaichen responded in a low voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone else came forward to greet Gu Huaichen.
Lin Youning quickly switched to a dignified smile and greeted the other party.
After dealing with a few more people, Lin Youning couldn't help but sigh, "Why hasn't it started yet?"
Gu Huaichen raised his eyes: "Tired?"
“A little bit.”
As the two were talking, an older man came over and said, "Huai Chen."
Gu Huaichen stood up, and Lin Youning followed suit, "Mr. Zhong."
This time, Gu Huaichen took the initiative to introduce Lin Youning to the other party: "This is my wife."
The elder named Zhong Lao smiled slightly, looked at Lin Youning and said, "What's your name?"
"Youning." Lin Youning called out, "Mr. Zhong, my last name is Lin."
"Lin Youning." Elder Zhong said gently, "Not a bad name."
He didn't know whose daughter Lin Youning was.
The two chatted briefly and then Mr. Zhong left first.
After the people left, Lin Youning asked Gu Huaichen curiously, "Is that the old man from the Zhong family?"
She didn't know him, but there was someone with the surname Zhong in the wealthy circle who could be treated with such respect by Gu Huaichen. It must be the Zhong family.
Gu Huaichen nodded: "Yes."
Lin Youning said "oh" and suddenly remembered something, "Is his granddaughter or granddaughter familiar to you?"
“…”
Gu Huaichen lowered his eyes, "What does Mrs. Gu want to ask?"
"I'm just asking casually." Lin Youning was very calm.
Gu Huaichen glanced at her and was about to say something when the auction officially began.
Lin Youning held a brochure with all the items for tonight's auction in her hands. She glanced through it briefly and asked in a low voice, "Which one did Mom like?"
Gu Huaichen took a quick look and said, "A painting."
Lin Youning was a little surprised, "Mom has this kind of hobby?"
"For Grandpa." Gu Huaichen knew Miss Ji very well. "Grandpa's birthday is coming soon. She probably wants to buy it and give it to him."
Lin Youning understood.
After three seconds of silence, she asked, "What about us?"
Gu Huaichen: “What?”
"What should we give to Grandpa for his birthday?" Lin Youning reminded him, "Shouldn't we prepare it early?"
Gu Huaichen: "We have already sent it."
Lin Youning was at a loss: "When?"
Gu Huaichen looked at her.
Lin Youning belatedly pointed at himself and said, "You mean, I am the birthday present you want to give to your grandfather?"
After saying this, she felt that this statement was not right, "No, so your marriage is the birthday gift that the old man wants?"
Gu Huaichen: "Mrs. Gu is really smart."
Lin Youning: “…”
It’s not that she is smart, it’s that Gu Huaichen’s hints are too obvious.
After a moment of silence, Lin Youning raised his hand and touched his nose and said, "This is from you. I haven't given it to you yet."
Gu Huaichen responded: "If you like it, you can take a picture later."
Lin Youning: "Give it to the old man?"
“…”
Sometimes, Gu Huaichen doubted the way this Miss Lin, his wife, thought. He tilted his head to look at her, and said helplessly, "Which word of mine meant this?"
Lin Youning: "We just talked about this."
Gu Huaichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No."
He stared at her with his dark and bright eyes, and said slowly, "Mrs. Gu, what I just said was that if you like something and want to collect it, you can take a picture of it."
Lin Youning was startled, pursed her lips and asked, "You want to give it to me?"
Gu Huaichen raised his eyebrows and did not answer her question directly, but asked her in return: "Mrs. Gu doesn't want it?"
“…”
How could Lin Youning not want it? Only a fool would refuse a gift that was delivered to his door.
However, she had just married Gu Huaichen, and they were not that familiar with each other and their feelings were not that deep, so she felt that perhaps she should be reserved.
Thinking of this, Lin Youning said tactfully: "I think it's too expensive."
"Not really." Gu Huaichen answered her calmly, "Even if I buy everything at the auction tonight, it won't be a big expense for me."
