Chapter 173: Keeping a good appearance
He would take care of everything and they would live happily ever after.
"Mr. Lin, Miss Dai Qian's condition is not good..." On the other end of the phone, a staff member's voice was trembling and almost breaking.
He went to clean his room as usual at the appointed time, but the filth and mess he saw almost made him vomit out the dinner he had eaten.
The female star who was dazzling and radiant under the spotlight now had empty eyes and was curled up naked in a corner of the carpet under the sofa.
She spoke weakly and asked him to call Lin Qingxuan, so he found Lin Qingxuan's phone number in the address book.
"I'll send someone over." Lin Qingxuan frowned as he listened to the staff's explanation. He hung up the phone and called a doctor. "Let's collect DNA for testing first."
Several bodyguards were then arranged to guard outside the corridor door.
Then he asked someone to check the surveillance footage, and waited until everything was over before entering the auction hall. He followed the waiter's instructions to the private room where Gu Xiqing and Shen Xiang were.
Half an hour before midnight, Gu Xiqing and Shen Xiang sat next to each other, discussing what to buy after taking the photo.
Gu Xiqing simply confirmed a few things.
I'll give the calligraphy and ancient books to my grandparents, as they like to collect them. I'll give them to them after the auction is over.
The ancient bronze artifact is given to my second uncle. His private museum may need some antiques.
Some furniture such as tables, chairs, beds, etc. made of hundreds of years old huanghuali, red sandalwood, etc. were sent to the Lin family.
In addition, she also chose a high-end complex function watch. She wanted to give this watch to Lin Qingxuan. He would receive this gift on his birthday two months later.
"Xiqing, why are all the items given to others? What about you?" Shen Xiang looked at the items that Gu Xiqing had selected for auction and frowned in confusion. "It's not like they can't afford them. You can't be thinking about them every time you go out, right?"
These furniture, antiques, calligraphy and ancient books are not cheap.
"I rarely go back to my grandmother's house, and I've caused them a lot of trouble in the past two years. Although my uncle doesn't say it, I know he must be under a lot of pressure." Gu Xiqing explained slowly, "So this batch of ancient bronze artifacts, these calligraphy works, and these ancient books are just a small token of my gratitude and a way to give back to them."
"Mrs. Lin and Mr. Lin are also very good to me. Although the Lin family's old house is not short of antique furniture, it will not be considered too little. In short, it has to be acceptable for the sake of face."
Even if people don't like it, they should not be able to gossip about it.
"As for this watch, he transferred some money to me before, so it wasn't actually my money that I spent." Gu Xiqing curled her lips, indicating that she didn't spend much money.
Shen Xiang said "Oh" half-believingly.
At the right time, the door of the box opened and Lin Qingxuan walked in.
Seeing that the two of them were discussing something, he glanced around and found a quiet corner to sit down.
The waiter serving the three of them is already in place. When the items to be auctioned come out, the waiter can press the light if he likes something.
"Which ones do you like?" Lin Qingxuan looked at Gu Xiqing.
Gu Xiqing said perfunctorily: "Some small things."
Because there was one more person in the box, the atmosphere became particularly awkward. Gu Xiqing and Shen Xiang sat together and whispered to each other, while Lin Qingxuan sat aside feeling bored and finally walked out.
Outside the box, many people have arrived one after another. In the dim auction hall, the lights are lit up in an orderly manner.
The dignified and beautiful auctioneer, dressed in a dark golden skirt, put on headphones and a microphone backstage. After checking her equipment again and again, she took a sip of water to calm herself down, opened the curtain, and stepped onto the stage.
