Chapter 117 "Me in Ten Years"

Later, Xie Yuqing thought about what London meant to her.

"Falling in love with someone is because someone you like lives in the city", this sentence was originally far away from her, but before she knew it, there was an extra person in her life.

Xie Yuqing didn't feel anything about becoming Xingluo's fifth chair.

A title without rules is meaningless. She went to London not because Wei Sheng Jue Ling asked her to go, but because the nominal dean of Jinkuo Manor appeared in London.

Perhaps through him, the owner of the manor can be found out.

[Aric Russell: Relatives said that the manor is very strict, and the garbage trucks are usually checked when they go out. 】

[Aric Russell: How are you doing now?Have you found a friend? 】

On the first night when she came to London, Xie Yuqing just turned on her computer when she received a private chat from that predestined person.

She was thinking about the contents of the USB flash drive she saw on the way, and when she saw the message sent by the other party, she reacted for a few seconds before remembering that she had asked him for such a thing not long ago.

[Vita Xie: I found it. 】

Now that Zhou Yueying has found it, Xie Yuqing actually doesn't want to talk about this topic, but if she is too indifferent, it will make others feel like throwing it away after using it.

It seems that people's hearts have become softer when they are abroad. At any rate, this person is considered "half" alumni, so Xie Yuqing sent a five-pound heartwarming red envelope to the other party, typing while hurting:

[Vita Xie: She's at a friend's house, I was too worried, but thank you! 】

Unexpectedly, the other party not only refused to accept it, but also typed a row of ellipses.

[Aric Russell: ...]

[Aric Russell: Just find it. 】

Then there was no sound.

Xie Yuqing sent an emoji, then checked the address of the London auction online.

She received a lot of messages today, which were confusing.

Most of them are fantasy. If it is normal, she may not feel anything if she just listens to what others say.

Because it's too illusory.

But it's different now.

What she encountered could not be explained by science.

Maybe it is possible, but it has long been beyond her comprehension, and severely shattered her three views, shattered and reshaped.

However, what surprised her even more was her ability to accept.

It seems easy to accept this fact.

Although she was in that unknown underground, she was trembling with fear.

But in that dark side she doesn't want to admit...

She finds it exciting.

Xie Yuqing has lived in an unharmonious family since she was a child. Her father is a university professor who is well educated and has a high spirit. Her mother is a strong woman and is also very strong in life.

Ever since she could remember, her parents had been arguing, fighting, and quarreling.

She seldom has moments of happiness, but maybe she inherited part of the spirit of the literati, until the end of her youthful rebellious period, she couldn't really rebel, smoking, drinking, perming her head and getting tattoos... She thought about it, forget it .

It’s not as good as escaping from the earth, chic and wanton.

So she has been enjoying loneliness alone, and her heart is full of unfulfilled, unconstrained ideas.

And now someone told her that other life forms do exist.

What was thought to be non-existent, then what was thought to be unrealizable, can it also be realized?
With such thoughts in mind, Xie Yuqing found herself a little excited.

Her desire to explore the unknown drives her to learn more about the truth of the world.

According to the content in the USB flash drive, the London Auction three days later will hold an "Asia-Europe Art Feast", and the dean of Jinkuo Villa will also be present at that time.

As for the dean of Jinkuo Villa, he is also very mysterious.

According to Xingluo information, the dean is Hispanic, and he has never appeared since he was named in Jinkuo Villa. Even the deputy dean only knows his name as "Seculars", and has never seen his real face.

Seculars, a very religious word, looks like a pseudonym.

However, Xing Luo was unable to find out his real identity, and only speculated that he was probably a middle-aged man, religious, and mysterious.

But Xingluo's intelligence network is indeed not a vegetarian. From such a pseudonym, it is possible to find out the news that the person behind it will participate in the London auction.

Xie Yuqing knew that there were many celebrities and aristocrats participating in this feast of Asian and European art, and trying to find someone among them was undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack, and letting people from Xingluo infiltrate to find it was the most energy-saving way.

But when she told Zhong Yao this idea, the other party looked at her coolly and said to her, "Yes, so this burden is on you."

Almost forgot, she is also a member of Xingluo now.

I really don't feel it at all.

Xie Yuqing was dubious about Zhong Yao's indifferent attitude.

She didn't believe that Xing Luo had no interest in such a mysterious dean.

If not, they would not have gone to Chajinkuo Villa.

But Xie Yuqing couldn't figure out what kind of calculations they had behind their backs.

If you can't figure it out, you can only play by ear. When the boat reaches the bridge, it will naturally become clear.

During these three days in London, apart from collecting as much information as possible about the auction, Xie Yuqing also rushed to catch up with her thesis.

No, the night before the auction, when Xie Yuqing washed her face listlessly, she found that she had grown a white hair.

When she found this silver reflection in the mirror, she instantly woke up.

She couldn't believe her eyes.

She is only 20 years old!Just grow white hair!
It must be too tired recently!

Xie Yuqing was very distressed, but she didn't dare to be too distressed, lest she grow gray hair if she was in a bad mood.

Unable to express her aggrieved mood, she rolled on the bed depressedly, and posted a post on Facebook——

【Hey, I've been under too much pressure recently, is there any good way to relieve it? 】

Then attached a photo of the white hair in hand.

Not long after, several Chinese alumni sent condolences in the comment area.

She explained in unison that it was because of too much academic pressure, going to bed late and getting up early, and being sleepy every day.

Suddenly, a private chat popped up again.

[Aric Russell shared a song]

Xie Yuqing clicked to open it.

It's "To Me in Ten Years Later" by Fiona Sit.

In the next second, the other party sent two messages——

[Aric Russell: I was listening to this song recently, and I felt a little touched. 】

[Aric Russell: I hope that when I look back ten years later, I will be grateful for my courage and hard work, and encourage each other. 】

Xie Yuqing was slightly taken aback.

Immediately, my heart felt warm, and I sent a "thank you" in the past.

She clicked on the song.

[Things done in the past ten years

Can you make you feel proud?

what you believed back then
Not shaken?

object and fate have appeared
Is the achievement not too bad?

You add experience on the journey
Did you make the edges and corners disappear?

weak?
You mature, you don't lose your style, do you?

Are you still holding on?
The blade won't be blunted, will it?
Are you seasoned?
Would you rather be smart than impulsive?
But will it be tiring to stop and think twice?

Are you happy?
You still remember your agreement with me, right?
