i'm not human
Chapter 17: Auction
The day after the final exam, Kong Yan got on the plane to Hong Kong City.Yes, he found out that even if he is an "inhuman" of unknown species, he still needs to take the final exam!Fortunately, he has always been serious about his studies and has a good memory. Although his grades are not enough to get a scholarship, it is enough to just not fail.
When I sat down with my bag on my back, there was no one in the seat next to me.Kong Yan took the book out to read it, but within two pages he felt a shadow cast from above, and then heard a nice male voice, "Sir, can I sit here?" The voice was full of magnetism, Still extremely clear in noisy economy class.
Kong Yan paused with his fingers pinching the pages of the book, looked up in surprise, and saw Cang Li standing beside him in a long dark gray trench coat, looking at him with a smile on his face, Kong Yan couldn't help but smile too.
"It's really destined." Cang Li shook the sunglasses in his hand, he was really the cool and domineering hero in the idol drama.
Kong Yan was also very cooperative, clenched his hand into a fist and put it on his lips, coughed lightly, and nodded, "It is indeed destined, please sit down." After finishing speaking, he was a little speechless, "But this opening line of striking up a conversation is really too old-fashioned, isn't it?" ?” After saying that, he couldn't help laughing again.
Destined?He only believes that things are man-made.
Cang Li sat down and found that the economy class seat was too narrow and uncomfortable for him with long hands and long legs.But it was only a few hours, it was still tolerable, he looked at Kong Yan's side face and silently comforted himself in his heart.
Kong Yan sat on the side and continued to read, but actually didn't read a word, and always subconsciously paid attention to the people sitting next to him.Seeing him constantly changing his posture, he looked uncomfortable all over his body.
"Why don't you upgrade?" Kong Yan simply put the book aside, he didn't have the heart to read it anyway.
Cang Li was shocked when he heard the words, but within a second, his face quickly returned to a calm expression, "No, I'm fine." I'll be where you are!Don't try to leave me!
Seeing his firm look, Kong Yan nodded, "Alright then, but what are you going to Hong Kong City for?"
"So this is a flight to Hong Kong City?" Cang Li answered the sentence casually, and realized something was wrong after finishing speaking.He had nothing to do at home, so he quietly "eavesdropped" on what Kong Yan was doing. He was still very moral, and he didn't even "peek".In the end, he just "heard" Kong Yan packing his luggage and preparing to go out.So impatient, he asked Mu Dianmo to help him buy a ticket on the same flight as Kong Yan, changed his clothes, and hurried to catch the plane, almost being late.
So he didn't know until now that this was a flight to Hong Kong City.
After hearing this, Kong Yan immediately realized what was going on, and did not expose him, but continued to ask, "Then you must not have booked a hotel, right?"
After realizing what Kong Yan said, Cang Li felt that his calm expression was almost unsteady, the surprise came too suddenly!
Then he heard Kong Yan say in a flat tone, "Then live with me."
Cang Li was really elated at this moment, he didn't expect such a good thing to happen this time!Already living together, can the rest of his dreams be far behind?
However, his beautiful fantasy was shattered when he arrived at the hotel reception.
Kong Yan handed him the room card of the room next door to him, and seeing that he didn't answer it, he asked with a half-smile, "What's the matter? Are you not satisfied with the room?"
Cang Li took the room card with a heart full of sadness, feeling that the whole world had fallen into darkness again.Seeing Kong Yan in front of him, he had no choice but to hold back his dissatisfaction—it is true that Kong Yan never said that they lived in the same room and slept in the same bed.
However, it is still so sad.
Cang Li, who was walking in front with the room card, didn't see it. Kong Yan looked at his bleak back, stood where he was, and smiled happily.Why didn't I realize that there is such a dramatic inside under the appearance of Cangli male god?
Not long after putting down his luggage, Kong Yan received a catalog of auction items from Guardian Auction House.
This time, Kong Yan came to Hong Kong City to participate in the triennial Guardian Ancient Books Auction. According to the posthumous letter written by his grandfather in "Tingyunlou Calligraphy and Painting Notes", there are many gold and stone calligraphy and paintings in Tingyunlou, which have always been treasures passed down from generation to generation by the Confucian family. , it can be considered by future generations to properly dispose of most of them, so as not to let these ancient relics end up damaged or destroyed.
But there is an isolated set of Song Dynasty "Valley of Splendid Ten Thousand Flowers". The ancestors of the Confucian family spent half their lives searching everywhere, exhausted their efforts, and finally found it in the year of destiny. For this set of books, it can be said that they spent half their lives wandering.Later, this book was secretly treasured for hundreds of years in the underground secret room of Tingyun Building, and it was carefully guarded from generation to generation.But it flowed out of his hands as a last resort, and it took him his whole life to get it back. This was his biggest regret before he passed away.I hope that future generations, if their ability permits, can retrieve this set of books and send them back to Tingyunlou, which will satisfy the hearts and minds of several generations of the Confucian family.
From the first time he saw this last letter, he made up his mind to retrieve this book—he had to complete this mission.Until now, this idea has not changed.And it's strange that after knowing his "non-human" identity, this idea has become stronger and stronger.
So when I was in the capital before, I learned from Grandpa Shi that this time, this set of "Valley of Splendid Flowers" will be the finale of the Guardian's ancient book auction, so I hurried to Hong Kong City after the exam.
A day later, Kong Yan was changing into formal attire for the auction when he heard a knock on the door.He paused for straightening his sleeves, and knew without thinking that it must be Cang Li who knocked on the door.
The door opened, sure enough.Cang Li stood in front of the door in a suit of the same color as himself, holding a tie in his hand.He was already in excellent shape, and after putting on the suit, his aura was completely open. Kong Yan felt that the first time he saw the other party, he could not walk at all—his legs were weak.
"This dress is too difficult to wear, it's not comfortable at all! And this tie, how do I wear it?" Cang Li walked into the door in two steps, closed the door behind him very consciously, and then looked at the tie expectantly. Kong Yan, "Help me."
The collar of the shirt was tightly buttoned, exposing his Adam's apple. At this time, the obvious masculine symbol was constantly moving up and down as he spoke.Kong Yan felt that he couldn't take his eyes off there at all, and felt a little dizzy.The man standing in front of him was so sexy that he couldn't help it!
After a few seconds, his beating heart gradually calmed down.Swallowing, Kong Yan silently took the tie he held in his hand, and found that the tie he was wearing turned out to be a couple's tie. The tips of his ears that were originally reddish instantly became hot, and the heat spread from his ears to his face. Tendency to extend towards the neck.
Cang Li stood up straight and raised his head slightly to make it easier for Kong Yan to move.Seeing him lowering his eyes and not daring to look at him, he felt that Kong Yan, who was a little shy, was so beautiful!But at this time, he didn't dare to make any extra moves, he was afraid that he would scare Kong Yan, and he was not the one who became angry and suffered a loss.
Kong Yan's fingers are very nimble, and he usually has no problem repairing ancient books, but this time he couldn't tie the tie properly, and had to untie it again and again.After repeating this two or three times, his hands trembled more and more, and he could hardly hold the silky tie.
Looking at Cang Li's slender neck, broad shoulders, moderate muscles under the shirt, and even the lines of his body, he felt a little hot all over his body, because the thin water in his eyes blurred everything in front of him .
Wearing a tie is such an ambiguous thing, I can't bear it!
Until his hands were held by another pair of hotter hands.
"Yan Yan, is this tie still on?" Cang Li teased, pointed at the tie that was obviously wrinkled, and looked at Kong Yan with the corner of his mouth curled up, his tone was low and seductive.
Kong Yan looked intently at the fabric in his hand, and found that it had indeed been kneaded badly by himself, so he said boldly, "I'll get you another one." He hurried to the place where the clothes were placed go.
Cang Li stood where he was, looking at Kong Yan's back, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became smug—how could such a trivial matter as wearing a tie be difficult for me?But it's better for Yan Yan not to know about this kind of thing, otherwise such good benefits will be gone.
When the two arrived at the auction site, there was already a lot of voices inside.This auction is the first ancient book auction held by Guardian Auction House after three years, so there are a lot of people here.Kong Yan's location is in the private box on the second floor, which is more private. Of course, this is also because he paid a deposit of 1000 million to the organizer.
After closing the door of the private room, Kong Yan sat on the sofa, rubbing the Xuanniao Mountain and River Seal with his fingertips nervously, feeling that his heart was not good.This feeling is different from the feeling that his heart beat faster when he saw Cang Li. He was really nervous at this moment—if he missed this time, he would have to wait for the "Valley of Splendid Ten Thousand Flowers" book to be published again in many years.
And Cang Li, who followed all the way in, loosened the tie he had tied so hard since entering the door, and unbuttoned the first two buttons of his shirt, and sat obliquely on the wooden couch with a cup in his hand. Cocktail, with an unruly and romantic attitude, looks like a swinger from a European duke's family hundreds of years ago, but it always makes people can't help but take a few more glances in order to be favored overnight.
Trying his best to ignore the people with a strong sense of presence around him, Kong Yan took the catalog of this auction and looked at it seriously.The finale lot this time was the set of the Song Dynasty solitary copy "The Valley of Splendid Flowers" that he wanted, with a total of 120 volumes and an estimated price of tens of millions.
For this set of ancient books, he asked Grandpa Shi to sell three priceless calligraphy and paintings one after another a few years ago, and only then did he gather a considerable amount of money—for this reason, his life in the past few years can be said to be very difficult. Saving, even Shi Chen can't stand his behavior of always eating canteen, and will force him to eat meat every few days.
In fact, he himself knew that the little money he saved on weekdays was nothing compared to such a large amount.But this matter was in his heart, which made him feel the pressure from time to time.
Like if it doesn't get done, something will go wrong.
Now that he's at the scene, he still doesn't know what to do. The rules of the game in the auction house are that the strong get it. If you pay more than me, then I have nothing to say.
Seeing that he was getting more and more nervous, Cang Li raised his sharp chin, and said in a careless and arrogant tone, "What are you afraid of, isn't it me? Otherwise, what do you think I'm here to do?" Isn't it because you don't have enough money? I can't buy the book I want, and then I can't get rid of this knot all the time.
You only need to think about me in your heart.
The author has something to say: [Small Theater]
Lord Dragon: "Isn't it just money? I have it! Buy, buy, buy~"
Kong Yan: Hua Hua Hua!
Lord Dragon: "..." He was dumbfounded.Let's see if my wife is good enough...
