Chapter 285 Help him hide the person
During the subsequent auction, Han Junhe absentmindedly bid on several paintings, her gaze occasionally glancing at Jiang Zhouzhou.
Those sitting in the back row naturally noticed that something was wrong.
The news of the Gu and Han families' planned marriage has been circulating in their social circles these past few days. This young lady, who recently returned from abroad, keeps a low profile and rarely appears in public.
however……
Judging from Gu Nanfeng's attitude, his relationship with the young and beautiful woman next to him was clearly more ambiguous.
The current situation is truly intriguing.
what is this?
How could he be so affectionate with another woman in front of his future wife?
Although such things are common in the industry, with the marriage between the two families imminent, Gu Nanfeng's behavior clearly trampled on the Han family's reputation.
Han Yunhe didn't need to guess to know what those onlookers were saying, but Gu Nanfeng remained calm and didn't care about their attention at all.
The flashbulbs of the cameras kept flashing at the auction venue.
Han Junhe frowned, took out her phone and contacted her assistant, warning the media to delete the photos of Jiang Zhouzhou and Gu Nanfeng together.
As the auction drew to a close, Jiang Zhouzhou won the bid for the most famous traditional Chinese painting. When she went on stage to receive the transfer certificate, Han Junhe finally had a chance to talk to Gu Nanfeng.
“Mr. Gu, although our two families intend to arrange a business marriage, I hope you can restrain your behavior a little. I don’t mind if you have entanglements with other women before or after the marriage, but…”
Her cold gaze fell on Gu Nanfeng's face, her tone devoid of any emotion, "During this time, you'd better keep him well hidden. I don't want to hear those unspeakable rumors about my fiancé and other women right after our engagement, and it would be difficult to explain to our parents as well."
After finishing these long-winded words, Han Yunhe's pent-up emotions eased slightly.
She didn't like Gu Nanfeng, but marrying another man was still a marriage, and at least Gu Nanfeng's appearance was more pleasing to the eye in the house.
Before he could speak, Han Junhe couldn't help but continue, "Or... you could hide them with me. I have an empty villa in Qingjiang Bay, which would be more convenient for you to meet if you want."
In her eyes, Gu Nanfeng was too high-profile. Bringing this girl to these occasions in person would easily attract criticism. It would be better to keep her under her nose and protect her.
Gu Nanfeng glanced at Han Yunhe's words, his deep eyes remaining calm, but the curve of his lips held a subtle hint of mockery.
"Everyone says that Miss Han is the most sensible person, and I've certainly learned that lesson today."
Han Yunhe pursed her red lips, her neat brows furrowed, and looked coldly at Gu Nanfeng, "You don't need to mock me. I'm only thinking about the interests of both families."
Gu Nanfeng said without changing his expression, "Miss Han, you're overthinking it. I'm a very loyal person when it comes to marriage."
Han Junhe was suddenly unsure of his attitude...
Does he mean... he only plans to have fun before marriage?
The gaze returned to the stage, where Lin Wan, the gallery's manager, was personally handing the certificate to Jiang Zhouzhou.
Under the spotlight, the girl with delicate features shone brightly. Her skin was very fair, and the light gave it a pure glow. When she smiled, her lips curved into a beautiful arc, making it hard to look away.
Fine, if Gu Nanfeng really only intends to have some fun before the wedding... then she'll compensate her with more money!
After the auction, there would be a networking banquet, but Han Junhe had no interest in attending and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, however, she bought several valuable paintings and had her staff deliver them to her villa.
Lin Wan saw her off and couldn't help but tease her, "Why did you suddenly buy so many paintings?"
Han Junhe said expressionlessly, "Support your gallery's investors."
Hearing her say that, Lin Wan's expression froze for a moment. "Don't you mind her relationship with Gu Nanfeng?"
Han Junhe raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, "What's there to mind? She was there before me. Even if Gu Nanfeng and I really got together, she wouldn't be a mistress."
This answer surprised Lin Wan, and she smiled and said, "You are quite magnanimous."
Today's charity auction was a great success, and Lin Wan breathed a sigh of relief. The media also refrained from making unfounded reports, praising the gallery's charitable act from all angles and giving the gallery a huge boost in publicity.
Gu Nanfeng drove Jiang Zhouzhou back to her apartment. His gaze fell on her sitting in the passenger seat as he asked, "Zhouzhou, do you remember you owe me a reward?"
Jiang Zhouzhou nodded: "I remember!"
When Nanfeng and Yezi were vying for the top spot on the contribution leaderboard, she gave each of them a reward in an effort to dissuade them.
She tilted her head and looked at Gu Nanfeng, smiling as she asked, "Brother Nanfeng, have you decided what you want?"
Gu Nanfeng's fingers gripping the steering wheel curled slightly as he suppressed the urge to pat her head.
A clear voice slowly said, "Um, are you free the night after tomorrow? I'd like you to come with me somewhere."
Jiang Zhouzhou thought for a moment. She didn't have any plans for the day after tomorrow, so she replied, "Okay!"
Seeing that she agreed without hesitation, Gu Nanfeng smiled and said, "I'll come pick you up then."
Gu Nanfeng dropped Jiang Zhouzhou off at the apartment building and left without lingering.
Jiang Zhouzhou held the painting without thinking much. Her world and Gu Nanfeng's world were different. He couldn't possibly keep squeezing into this small apartment and cooking for her forever.
However, it's really hard to get used to having two fewer neighbors.
Jiang Zhouzhou stood in the elevator, hesitating about whether or not to buy a house in Haishi...
The elevator then reached the 21st floor, and the "ding" sound brought her back to her senses.
Back at the apartment, Tangyuan ran over and nuzzled against her leg.
With her meticulous care, the glutinous rice balls became increasingly round and plump, living up to their name.
Jiang Zhouzhou unpacked the painting, her gaze sweeping across the living room as she pondered where to hang it.
However, before hanging the painting, she made sure to call Zhou Xian.
The call was answered as soon as it was dialed, and a man's lazy voice came through: "Why did you finally decide to call me?"
Jiang Zhouzhou said somewhat shyly, "I bought a painting and wanted to ask if you could hammer a nail into the wall?"
After learning that Zhou Xian was the guild owner, she reasonably suspected that he was also the owner of this small apartment.
Sure enough, the man readily agreed: "Well, not to mention hammering in a nail, you can even break down the wall and connect it to the neighbor's house."
Jiang Zhouzhou's lips twitched: "There's absolutely no need for that."
but……
She suddenly knew where to hang the painting!
When the live stream started that evening, as soon as the fans flooded into the room, they saw an abstract and ugly painting on the background wall behind their streamer...
