1363 I’m Unlucky To Know Him
Guan Hui was not surprised that Huo Yuzhou was chasing her away so impatiently. She seemed to be used to it. She bit her lip and slowly got up from the floor to walk out of the lounge.
At this moment, there was a group of people standing outside. Seeing that Guan Hui’s eyes were filled with sympathy and a trace of disdain, Huo Yuzhou’s a.s.sistant broke the silence first. “Miss Guan, the sir said that he knows what you want. He wants you to go to the auction house first. He’ll go in a while.”
Guan Hui heaved a sigh of relief and straightened her back. Even if she could not compare to Qiao Xi’s status in Yuzhou’s heart, she was still the only woman by Yuzhou’s side. She would always be by Yuzhou’s side.
Back then, she spent a lot of effort to stay with the Huo family and schemed against Qiao Xi. It was not easy for her to get Qiao Xi out of the Huo family. Everything she had now was not easy to come by. She had to become the legitimate Mrs. Huo and make everyone who had once mocked her regret it.
!!
When everyone heard Huo Yuzhou’s a.s.sistant’s words, their expressions were a little subtle. In that case, Mr. Huo still liked Miss Guan. Even if she was not Mrs. Huo now, she would be sooner or later.
A few socialites immediately smiled obsequiously. “Miss Guan, don’t you want that violin? Looks like you can get your wish this time.”
“That violin is the finale. It looks like it must have a special meaning. Mr. Huo wants to bid for it and give it to you, Miss Guan. It’s enough to prove that he cares about you. In that case, we won’t compete with Mr. Huo.”
Another woman said obsequiously, “Since you want the violin, I believe Mr. Huo will get it no matter how much money he spends. How can we be Mr. Huo’s match?! We’re not qualified to compete with him in wealth!”
Hearing everyone’s compliments, Guan Hui gradually looked proud.
At this moment, Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi had already arrived at the auction house. The seats were all luxurious sofas. Gu Zheng’s and Qiao Xi’s seats were in the center. Not only were they luxurious, but they also came with a good view.
Qiao Xi turned her head to look at the man beside her. “Don’t you have anything to ask?”
“Xi Xi, what do you think I’ll ask?” Gu Zheng’s eyes were bright like stars as he looked at her gently. Qiao Xi only took a glance before her heart thumped.
Gu Zheng raised his hand, and his long and fair fingers landed on her cheek. He stroked it gently. His tone was calm but carried a trace of coldness. “Let me ask you about your past with Huo Yuzhou. Did you know Huo Yuzhou before me?”
Qiao Xi instantly choked. She kept having the feeling that Gu Zheng knew everything. Did he investigate it himself, or did he hear it from somewhere?
She pondered for a moment and immediately reacted. She could not help but frown. “Did Huo Yuzhou tell you? What else did he say?”
Gu Zheng had a warm smile on his face. In front of Qiao Xi, he would maintain his gentle and elegant image no matter what.
Qiao Xi was angry. Huo Yuzhou was really too evil. She and Huo Yuzhou had known each other for a long time, but that was all because of Huo Yuzhou’s schemes. After what had happened, their previous relationship had long disappeared. Why did he say those strange things in front of Gu Zheng?
Gu Zheng said casually, “I’m not angry, and I won’t care about his words.”
Qiao Xi said indignantly, “Back then, he used me to get close to Grandpa and stole his medical book. He even almost burned the library. So what if I knew him before you?
“It’s my bad luck to know a despicable person like him!”
Gu Zheng’s cold face was filled with smiles, and his eyes became even gentler.
These words were not said by him. Xi Xi had said them herself. Moreover, Huo Yuzhou had indeed bragged in front of him that he had known Xi Xi for a long time and tried to ruin their relationship as husband and wife. Unfortunately, Huo Yuzhou had made a mistake. Xi Xi no longer trusted him.
Gu Zheng’s clear eyes were like a deep pool as he quietly looked at the woman beside him. Her every move was so charming. For the first time, he felt fl.u.s.tered. He was afraid that someone would s.n.a.t.c.h Xi Xi away and wished for nothing more than to hide Xi Xi from others.
However, he was not worried now because Xi Xi only had eyes for him. She would not like Huo Yuzhou.
The auction was about to start. Qiao Xi casually picked up the booklet on the table and flipped through it. She suddenly recalled that Gu Zheng had said that he wanted to give her a gift.
Ever since the two of them got married, Gu Zheng had given her many gifts. Jewelry and clothes had already filled the cloakroom. Although the things in this auction book were very expensive, they were not special. They were similar to the things in her cloakroom.
What did Gu Zheng want to give her? Could it be this violin?
