Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 50 Mu Jinyue’s decision
Zhu Xiongying felt his heart beating hard. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions. He told himself that he was now at the auction preview and was not the time to think about other things.

He gently moved his eyes away from Mu Jinyue's face and refocused on the tablet screen, but the inexplicable emotion in his heart could not be calmed down.

Mu Jinyue seemed to be recalling the past, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes. She gently raised her head and met Zhu Xiongying's eyes again.

This time, she did not dodge, but faced him bravely, her eyes so clear and bright that she seemed to be able to see through his heart.

"I thought about the question you asked me last time on the street at the coffee shop."

"you"

"I want to be with you."

Zhu Xiongying no longer hesitated, stretched out his hand, and gently held Mu Jinyue's hand on the tablet. Her hand was soft and warm, making him feel an unprecedented peace of mind and satisfaction.

Mu Jinyue trembled slightly, but did not break away from his hand. She bit her lip gently, a blush appeared on her face, and her eyes flashed with complex light, including surprise, shyness, and expectation, and then closed her eyes. Eye.

Seeing Mu Jinyue's attitude of letting everyone take what she wanted, Zhu Xiongying vaguely remembered how he watched her sleeping on the desk with her arms pillowed on her side when they were in high school together.

Perhaps the feelings had already arisen when they were young. In the past, they were only hindered by the shackles of "going to college", but now, the shackles are broken, and he and she are adults.

Looking at Mu Jinyue's soft lips, Zhu Xiongying kissed her without hesitation.

"Hmm~"

After a while, until someone knocked on the door, Mu Jinyue let go as if she was electrocuted.

A manager wearing a black vest with red trim came up and asked if they needed more lots.

Mu Jinyue cleared her throat and tried to sound calm: "It's better to take out the collection for appraisal by the appraiser first."

Zhu Xiongying nodded and carefully took out several paintings and calligraphy from the long bag he carried with him.

After a while, a professional appraiser came in. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He took the calligraphy and painting and began to appraise them calmly. However, as time went by, his face gradually became serious.

The appraiser put down the magnifying glass in his hand and said politely to the two of them: "Please wait a moment, I need to ask my superiors for instructions."

After saying that, he hurriedly left the box.

This move made Zhu Xiongying a little nervous. Could it be that he was regarded as a back-up fighter?
After a while, the door was pushed open again, and it turned out that a new appraiser came in. This senior appraiser was an old man, with gray hair, but bright eyes.

He carefully appraised each calligraphy and painting with professional appraisal equipment, and finally concluded: "These paintings and calligraphy are all imitations from the early Ming Dynasty, but they are of high quality and well-preserved. It is estimated that the total transaction price may reach 700 yuan." Six hundred thousand. Of course, this is just an estimate, and the actual transaction price will prevail in the end."

Zhu Xiongying breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this number, but unexpectedly, he didn't feel too excited.

At this moment, Zhu Xiongying suddenly felt that money no longer meant much to him. But what is meaningful?
Zhu Xiongying fell into confusion for a moment.

He really doesn’t know, maybe the step-by-step process of going to school, working, getting married, having children, retiring, and caring for the elderly is the entire process of his life?

Maybe it was before, but Zhu Xiongying vaguely felt that when he came into contact with the mysterious vortex, everything was different, and the trajectory of his destiny had undergone earth-shaking changes.

After Zhu Xiongying registered the information and put these paintings and calligraphy up for auction in his own name, the purpose of coming to the preview of the auction was basically completed. As for the main meeting later, you can come or not. If you don't worry, just come and watch by yourself. If it's a big deal, you can wait for the auction house to transfer the money to the card, or call to get the unsold lots.

The two returned to the parking lot and prepared to drive back to school, but in the car, the alarm of the software on Zhu Xiongying's mobile phone rang, and the mobile phone began to vibrate non-stop.

Obviously, the mysterious vortex has opened again.

"Throw me on the roadside and go back to school first."

Mu Jinyue nodded without asking and put Zhu Xiongying on the side of the road. After seeing Zhu Xiongying take a taxi, she started the car and drove directly to the parking lot of a building in the city center. After identifying it in the special elevator, she drove directly to the parking lot. Came to the 25th floor.

Walking through the corridor wrapped in thick carpets, Mu Jinyue opened the door of an office.

The decoration of the office is not luxurious, but full of antique style, with screens, jade and various antiques decorated in detail.

The boss's chair faces the glass, which is a location overlooking the entire city center.

The man on the chair had his back to Mu Jinyue, his gray hair exposed, and his voice was a little tired.

"You have thought about it."

"Dad, I've thought about it."

The man nodded, patted the armrest of the seat and said: "Your choice is not wrong. You have to know that although we have technology, money and better material life here, there are some things that we will never... You can't have it, but only Zhu Xiongying can give it to you. He is too special, he is the only one chosen by heaven. There is a story about Lu Buwei in history that 'a rare thing can live in'. I followed the old man back then."

Mu Jinyue frowned and interrupted: "I just want to be with him, other things are not important."

The man was completely silent. After a long while, he said: "Our family owes him. Since you are willing, then respect your wishes. People say that a married daughter throws away water. I think you are the same." As long as you are willing to give up everything you have now and don’t regret it in the end.”

"Then when will you tell him the truth?" Mu Jinyue chased after him.

"There are still nine months to countdown to the reopening of Bieguya. When the time comes, I will naturally tell him. After all, the old man treats me well, and I will naturally not break my promise."

Seeing that Mu Jinyue wanted to ask more questions, the man said in a deep voice: "Don't push yourself too hard. I have already prepared everything that should be prepared and should not be prepared. When this line is completely cut off, the group will transform. Do you think I am?" Are you reluctant to part with this line? When the group reaches its current scale, these indescribable things are no longer a help, but a shackle."
