Chapter 368: Chapter 368: Since When Did Mr. Bo Become So Fond of Sweets?
Gu Shiyin’s tone was gentle, filled with anticipation as she looked towards the door.
However.
After a full ten seconds, Bao Gucheng’s firm and strong long legs didn’t appear, nor did the characteristic sharp sound of his army boots striking the ground.
Yin Hu stretched his neck and stupidly looked outside too: "Miss Gu, what are you looking at?"
The light in Gu Shiyin’s eyes gradually dimmed, and she smiled faintly: "Nothing. Mr. Bo...?"
Yin Hu: "Oh, Mr. Bo is so busy, his schedule is packed till next weekend."
Gu Shiyin, with great poise, didn’t show disappointment but rather nodded in understanding: "I just worry that he’s so busy, he might not be eating well..."
Chen Long curled his lips: "You don’t need to worry about that, Miss Gu. Mr. Bo has two pieces of super delicious candy, just a glance before eating and he can finish three bowls of brown rice even without side dishes."
Gu Shiyin slightly parted her lips: "Ah? What candy?"
How come she didn’t know Bao Gucheng liked sweets? From what Chen Long said, was he a sweet tooth?
Even Yin Hu didn’t know: "Huh? What candy, I haven’t seen it!"
Chen Long closed his mouth, smiling without saying a word.
Ha, Miss Xi’s Immortal Sugar, is it something you mortals can casually admire?
Yin Hu suddenly remembered and explained to Gu Shiyin: "Miss Gu, I’m really sorry, Mr. Bo wasn’t able to spare any time in the end, and these two VIP invitation cards would have been wasted, so Chen Long asked me to bring him along to see the world."
Chen Long: "..." Damn it, it was you old guy who insisted on me accompanying you, right?!
If it weren’t for supervising you, to prevent you from talking nonsense in front of Miss Gu and revealing Mr. Bo’s big secret, I wouldn’t have bothered to come with you.
Yin Hu coughed, avoiding Chen Long’s murderous gaze: "By the way, Miss Gu, you mentioned a nephrite jade today, wanting to auction it for Mr. Bo?"
Gu Shiyin smiled and nodded: "Yes, the description says it has great translucency."
"Very expensive, right?"
"Not expensive, starting at five million."
Yin Hu clicked his tongue: "Miss Gu, you really have a good heart for Mr. Bo."
Just as he was sighing, over there Chu Qiaoen excitedly shouted: "It’s starting, it’s starting, what a beautiful Moonstone!"
Yin Hu and Chen Long looked over and saw that the first auction item was an antique sapphire ring with a quite high starting price of two million.
The Emperor Auction really serves the wealthy, the level here starts at a million just casually.
In less than five minutes.
The sapphire ring was sold to a wealthy businessman for three million eight hundred thousand.
After the sapphire heated up the scene, a series of pretty gemstone jewelry followed, and Chu Qiaoen, clutching the gold card from her family, was dazzled: "Aunt Shiyin, you have a good eye, help me pick one, I want to wear it when school starts!"
Entrusted by her, Gu Shiyin carefully looked. When a Moonstone necklace came out, she decisively told Chu Qiaoen: "Bid for this one."
Looking at the necklace starting at just one million, Chu Qiaoen felt it was a bit low-end: "Aunt Shiyin, I have enough money, my dad gave me three million to spend freely."
Gu Shiyin smiled slightly: "They don’t know its value, this Moonstone is pure and flawless, and has medicinal effects, can cool and calm, wearing it when you’re irritable, your mood will settle. It’s much more understated and elegant than any sapphire or ruby. Qiao En, you’re young, a gemstone like this that is unusual and transcendent is perfect for you."
A mention of "transcendent" made Chu Qiaoen feel light and happy instantly: "Buy, buy, buy!"
On the first day of college, it’s necessary to wear such extraordinary jewelry to make an entrance, haha! She wanted everyone at the Medical College to worship her as a goddess from the first day!
However, just as Chu Qiaoen was joyfully calling out "one million and one hundred thousand" for the bid price—
