The Right Way to Conquer a Donor

A few days ago, Gu Huan didn't go out again. He stayed in the villa and repeatedly edited the photos until he was satisfied. Then he picked a few photos and sent them to Ning Yu for the competition.

Gu Huan's photography is purely a hobby, he has few friends, except for Ning Yu, he has no one to discuss and share experiences with, and he doesn't know how good he is.

This was Gu Huan's first time participating in a competition. Although he was greedy for prize money, he didn't have high expectations. He mainly wanted to see more of other people's works and broaden his horizons.

Ning Yu said that the organizer will select [-] outstanding works for an exhibition, and all the participants will be eligible to enter the venue to see the exhibition. This is a rare opportunity for Gu Huan, who is still a layman.

Therefore, he takes these works very seriously.

It was a scene taken in the middle of the mountain. The dense fog, white snow, and sky blend together. The whole shot is full of pure white, occasionally revealing thin and black dead tree branches with bare branches or a little bit of green leaves. A little crystal clear snow...

The photos taken by different viewing angles and light levels are also different.Even though Gu Huan was not good at taking macro shots, Ning Yu praised two of them as good ideas.

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, Gu Huan was going home. The servants, gardeners, and security guards working in the villa were all on vacation. Only Butler Mo had to guard the huge house.

When Gu Huan waved goodbye to him, he couldn't bear it.

It would be great if Mr. Rong was here, the villa would definitely be very lively, Gu Huan thought.

Rong Shangyan's villa is not very far from the Gu family, only half an hour's drive away.However, the road was slippery in snowy weather, and it took the driver almost an hour to arrive.

Coming down from the door, Gu Huan braved the light snow and waved to Li Tao: "Brother Li, don't wait for me, you can go home!"

"Where do you live here today?" Li Tao lit a cigarette with a lighter and bit it in his mouth.

Gu Huan shook his head slightly, and hid his hands in his warm pockets: "I'll go back at night, and my sister will see me off. Don't wait when it's so cold!"

Li Tao bit his cigarette holder, nodded, started the car, and said vaguely: "I see, you go in!"

Seeing the car turn around and leave, Gu Huan breathed out and went to ring the doorbell.

The one who opened the door was the fat nanny who had worked in Gu's family for many years. She showed a rare kind smile to Gu Huan this time: "Master Gu Huan is back!"

"Ah? Yes." Gu Huan followed her in, and Zhang Er replied with a puzzled smile. He thought it was the Chinese New Year and everyone was happier. He didn't know that it was the servant who had just been beaten by Gu Jinxiu. reason.

Although he didn't come back to live in for a month, the furnishings and decorations of the house are still familiar to Gu Huan.He has lived here for more than ten years, and he will not fall when he walks without turning on the lights at night.

Gu Jinxiu, who was wearing a red turtleneck sweater, came out of the room to welcome her, "Xiao Huan, you're back home!"

Seeing her elder sister Gu Huan Xiaoxiao jumped up happily, and handed over the exquisite bag in her hand: "I'm not late, am I?"

"What is this?" Gu Jinxiu took the bag in doubt, opened it and looked at it, and was immediately amused: "Why bring red wine, you are not here to be a guest when you come home!"

Gu Huan blushed in embarrassment, and said awkwardly: "It always feels weird to come empty-handed..." In fact, this bottle of red wine is only a few hundred dollars, and it is not very easy for the Gu family to sell it, but he really has no money Buy more expensive gifts.

Apparently Gu Jinxiu also thought of it, she smiled and squeezed Gu Huan's hand: "You are grown up and sensible, but the family should not be so alienated." Then she handed the bag to the nanny next to her, and said softly: "Put it in my room Go, be careful."

The nanny lowered her head and carefully took it with both hands. The majesty of the young lady of the Gu family made her feel terrified.

Gu Jinxiu happily dragged Gu Huan to the living room: "Mom, Xiao Huan is back."

The lady who was sitting on the sofa browsing luxury fashion magazines responded without raising her head: "Oh."

The smile on Gu Huan's face faded, and he squeezed his fingers stiffly: "Mom..."

Mrs. Gu neither responded nor turned her head. She focused on the magazine on her lap, pressed the edge of the smooth paper with her finger wearing a huge emerald ring, and flipped a page lightly.

Gu Jinxiu suppressed his anger and pulled out a smile, and was about to remind his mother, when suddenly there was an arrogant shout from the other side of the stairs.

"Wait, let me see what you took." Gu Junzhe stood on the stairs and blocked the nanny's way.

The nanny looked at Gu Huan in embarrassment, but someone took the things in her hand away, and she didn't dare to take them back.

Gu Junzhe took out the wooden box as he went downstairs, and threw the delicate handbag on the ground, he clicked his tongue and walked towards Gu Huan: "You bought this? Didn't you use the money you earned from part-time jobs to buy this kind of stuff to hurt you?" ah?"

In fact, he saw it when Gu Huan handed it over to Gu Jinxiu, but he deliberately wanted to show it now.

"Sister, you are too. He can come up with such a cheap product, doesn't he dare to make it because he knows you are covering him!" Gu Junzhe said mercilessly, making Gu Huan's small face pale, All the ladies looked at him.

Gu Jinxiu became even more angry, couldn't she blame her mother for not being able to teach her brother a lesson?Immediately, he raised his eyebrows and said sharply, "Gu Junzhe, shut up!"

"Why, he won't allow me to say—"

Gu Junzhe opened the wooden box and grabbed the red wine inside. When he saw the label on the red wine bottle, the sneer immediately turned into embarrassment, and his face smelled like shit.

The red wine that Gu Huan sent was actually a bottle of 75-year-old sherry!Such a bottle is worth tens of thousands of dollars. Regardless of the market price, the most precious thing for red wine lovers is its unparalleled collection value.

Standing in front of him, Gu Jinxiu's eyes lit up when he saw the bottle, and then he lifted his head and took it from Gu Junzhe's hand and put it back into the wooden box, and smiled triumphantly: "It's all cheap, my brother Your vision is high enough. But this bottle of Sherry was specially given to me by Xiao Huan, so I think you might not like it, so I will put it back in the room!"

Gu Huan, who was standing aside, was dumbfounded!He doesn't drink alcohol himself, and of course he doesn't know the brand of red wine.But when buying wine, the waiter introduced him to many kinds, and he remembered that the "Sherry" his sister said was one of the most expensive.

But the problem is that what he bought was a few hundred yuan of red wine, why has it become a hot commodity now?

Gu Jinxiu handed the box to the nanny again, stared at her and said word by word: "Send it to my room, this time I hope it won't get into someone else's hands!"

"Yes, miss!" The nanny went upstairs holding the wooden box in fear.

"Okay Jinxiu, treat your brother better." Mrs. Gu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly criticized, but turned her head and waved to Gu Junzhe lovingly: "Zhe Zhe, come and help mom see which of these two buns is better! "

Mrs. Gu was on the side of her youngest son, but Gu Junzhe didn't appreciate it at all, and went upstairs with a cold snort, leaving her stretching out her hand in embarrassment.

Gu Jinxiu watched coldly, and suddenly felt that her family was a joke, because the parents selfishly favored the younger son, and the family was distorted beyond recognition.

Sometimes she asks herself, even if she is not a man, which point is worse than them?But in the eyes of the parents, she just couldn't compare to her son.

"Mom, Gu Huan and I are going back to the room." She said lightly and took Gu Huan's hand and left, leaving Mrs. Gu alone to digest the embarrassment.

In the room, Gu Huan was sitting on the single sofa, and Gu Jinxiu poured him a cup of tea.

"Not bad, is this wine given by Rong Shangyan?" Gu Jinxiu held up the wine bottle and looked at it with a smile, but she was reluctant to remove the cork to taste the sweetness of the red wine.

Gu Huan held the cup in both hands to keep warm, blinked his eyes unclearly, so: "No, Mr. Rong is not at home."

"It's not him?" Gu Jinxiu was puzzled, "That's strange, who else but him?"

"Hmm..." Gu Huan tried his best to think for a while, and suddenly he understood: "Could it be Uncle Mo?! I asked him to help me think about what gift to give in the morning. He said that I just went to buy red wine."

So, Uncle Mo switched his red wine?

Gu Huan can confirm that it was Butler Mo who did it, who else would kindly help except him?No matter what, Gu Huan is full of gratitude to him now, otherwise the feeling of being humiliated would be very uncomfortable...

But he suddenly thought... "Sister, is this bottle very expensive?" Wouldn't it cost Uncle Mo if it was very valuable, so how should I thank him!Gu Huan was distressed.

Gu Jinxiu glanced at him: "Why, don't even try to take it back!"

"Surely you don't want to come back!" Gu Huan muttered.

The siblings hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they chatted in the room until the night, until the nanny knocked on the door and said that Father Gu was back and wanted to go down for the New Year's Eve dinner.

As soon as night falls, the night sky of the city explodes with endless fireworks. Huge and gorgeous fireworks decorate the dark sky with colorful colors, and the whole Yan City is surrounded by a lively and festive atmosphere.

After New Year's Eve is New Year's Eve, Gu Kangnian is naturally not allowed to have a quarrel at home today, even Gu Junzhe is peaceful, the dinner table looks quite harmonious.

Gu Huan ate a meal carefully, for fear of making someone unhappy and quarreling again, so he didn't know what to eat, and went to Green Island with his mind wandering.

Before the family finished eating, Gu Jinxiu suddenly took out two red envelopes from his pocket and distributed them to his younger brothers: "The lucky money from my sister, take it!"

Gu Huan was a little surprised, he hesitated and reached out to catch it, and found a hard card.

Gu Jinxiu winked at him slyly, then he put his hand under the table holding the red envelope.

The red sweater reflected Gu Jinxiu's fair face, showing a kind of flamboyant beauty: "Dad, I already gave red envelopes, why don't you show something to the two younger brothers?" She deliberately bit the "two younger brothers" Four words, the meaning of which is self-evident.

Before Gu Kangnian could speak, Mrs. Gu was dissatisfied with this daughter whose elbow was turned outward, and glared at her: "Tomorrow is the first day of the new year, why worry?"

"I was negligent, and I am too busy during the Chinese New Year." Gu Kangnian smiled heartily, patted his wife's well-maintained hand to comfort him, and then said kindly to the children: "Come to me tomorrow to get red envelopes!"

Of course, a few people have to respond with a lot of face.

It's just that Gu Huan has long passed the age of looking forward to red envelopes, and now he feels uneasy.Sure enough, his sixth sense was not wrong at all, and he was called to the study by his father afterwards.

With the previous experience, Gu Huan instinctively resisted his father's study, but he could only resist the psychological discomfort and walked into that room.
