Chapter 20 20

On to the last item.When the three girls lifted the tray cover, the audience erupted. It should be said that many of the ladies present exclaimed, and some even stood up uncontrollably.In the tray is not a necklace, but a set of gold jewelry, including a gold necklace with three different lengths connected together, a pair of long drop earrings, a forehead necklace, a waist chain, an arm ring, a pair of ankle rings, Each is inlaid with gemstones and ivory of various colors, and the largest ruby ​​​​is on the necklace, shining brightly under the light of spotlights.According to the auctioneer, the largest ruby ​​has a flaw of less than one millimeter, which is still covered by a claw.

"Look, the madness of women." Lucas sneered in Leo's ear.

The starting price was 500 million US dollars, and it soon exceeded 2000 million. The bidding sounded one after another, like waves, and the more reserved women asked the men next to them to help bid, and some women directly held up their placards.When the price climbed to 880 million, finally no one bid anymore.With the final word, this set of beautiful jewelry finally has a home.Many people who were not photographed made regretful voices, and many men whispered to comfort the women around them.Leo was curious about who would get it.

Lucas reached out and pressed the inside line: "Nathan, who took the picture?"

"Number A10, um, it's Mrs. Ivanov."

"She really did her best." Lucas laughed.

"Isn't it? It is said that it will be given to my daughter."

"I heard what she said, did she take pictures of other items?"

"Well, there are three more."

"For commissions, round up the total."

"it is good."

After hanging up the call, Lucas stood up and stretched.

"It's always fun to watch people go crazy over items," Lucas said. "It's almost twelve o'clock. Would you like to spend the night here?"

"I still have something to do tomorrow, let's go home." Leo patted the crumbs of the husk on his body and stood up.

"Okay." Lucas pressed a button and said, "Send item B0857 to my car."

After taking off their clothes, Lucas opened the door, and the two walked towards the elevator.

Not many left immediately after the auction like them, so they basically didn't meet anyone.Maybe they took a special passage, Leo thought.

After leaving the gate, the parking officer has already parked the car at the gate.

"Sir, your items are already in the trunk." The waiter handed over a signature board, Lucas signed it, and the two got into the car.When the car was driven on the road, water droplets had already stuck to the windows.

"It's snowing." Leo looked down the car window, and a burst of cold air came in, and he hurried up.

Snowflakes just fell in the sky, and the headlights shone like cow hair.Looking at the density, there is a trend of getting bigger and bigger.

"I hope it won't last for a few days, or my mother will talk about it for a day or two." While waiting for the red light, Lucas turned his head and asked, "What are your Christmas arrangements?"

"The whole country will be on holiday from tomorrow, and the store will be open until seven o'clock tomorrow night. Let's go to church on Christmas day. Then, make an appointment with a few friends to visit Luxembourg and Belgium."

"Go by car? It's better to go skiing in the Alps in southern France this season. I can lend you my ski equipment." Lucas said.

"It depends on the time and their wishes." Leo replied.

While waiting for the red light, Lucas took Leo's hand and said, "Sorry, I can't spend Christmas and welcome the New Year with you this year."

"It's okay, we don't value Christmas and New Year's Day so much, the Spring Festival is of great significance to us." Leo squeezed his hand.

"That's what it means..." Lucas was silent for a while, and continued, "I'll come back to accompany you as soon as possible."

When we got home, the snowflakes started to get bigger.Lucas moved the suitcase out of the trunk and Leo went to open the door.Lucas took the jug out of the wooden box and handed it to Leo, who placed the two bottles on a chest of drawers against the wall.

"It looks pretty good." Leo turned back.

"Hmm. Honey, remember to use it, don't get dusty." Lucas yawned and pulled Leo upstairs.

Lying on the bed with Leo in his arms, Lucas suddenly said, "Can I exercise my boyfriend privilege?"

"What privilege do you want?" Leo looked at him in surprise.

"Tomorrow, oh no, the plane at seven o'clock tonight, I want you to stay with me for a while, and we won't see each other for several days."

"I have a cell phone."

"But you're not by my side." Lucas gently stroked Leo's back.

"You can video."

"But I can't touch you." Lucas nibbled on Leo's earlobe.

"Okay, okay," Leo said itchingly, "I'll come up to accompany you two hours after the store opens, is that okay?"

Lucas smiled and kissed him.

"Then go to bed quickly." Leo pulled his restless hand away and turned off the light.

Although Leo got up softly, Lucas was woken up.

"Would you like to sleep again?" Leo said while getting dressed, "I'll come up as soon as possible, is the luggage packed?"

"Not yet. But there are not many things, and they are all packed." Lucas rubbed his eyes, and got out of bed, "There is plenty of time to sleep on the plane."

"Well, wait for me to come up and have breakfast." Leo went to the bathroom to wash his face, then opened the door and went out.

After Lucas was dressed, he dragged out the suitcase from the storage room and put all the items in it, for mother, father, and David, which took up half the space of the suitcase.It's summer over there, well, pack some clothes and put them in.Closing the box, Lucas stared blankly.What do you seem to have forgotten?After thinking for a moment, Lucas picked up the phone.

Leo ran up after distributing red envelopes to the employees and explaining matters.Open the door and see Lucas sitting on the sofa listening to music.

"Have you packed your luggage?" Leo took off his coat.

"Well. I ordered a Christmas tree, and I'll get it back later." Lucas held out his hand to Leo, and Leo sat down holding his hand.

"Did you load the herbs?"

"No, there is no place to brew it over there, I brought the pills."

"Wait, I'll ask the doctor." Leo took out the phone and talked for a few minutes, hung up, and said to Lucas, "It doesn't matter if you stop the soup first, and continue to take the pills on time. Don't drink alcohol, coffee, etc. that are irritating drinks, don’t eat too much fried and spicy food, rest on time, and…”

"So many, I can't remember. You can follow me." Lucas waved his hand.

Leo smiled, took out a pen and paper, wrote clearly in French and Chinese, and handed it to Lucas: "Keep it well, show it to your mother, she will remind you."

Lucas took out his wallet and put it in, and continued to wrap his hands around Leo.

"Are you hungry? What do you want for lunch?" Leo asked.

"Chinese food. Let's go shopping and pick up the Christmas tree."

"What else to buy? The refrigerator is full."

"I just want to go shopping with you." Lucas rubbed Leo's fingers, "have breakfast outside."

"Well, it's still early." Leo stood up and pulled the koala up. "Go put on your shoes, and I'll get you a scarf and gloves. The snow has stopped and it's cold."

After both of them were armed, they went out.The snow has stopped, the sun has not yet come out, the sky is overcast, it seems that there is still another snow to fall.

The streets are full of lights and festoons, cars are coming and going, bustling, and the sound of promotions and activities in the shopping malls is about to overturn the roof, making Lucas inexplicably excited, holding Leo's hand, pointing to the window and talking non-stop , Let Leo wonder if he is going to get sick again.

There are a lot of people shopping for goods in a large supermarket. Lucas almost takes whatever he sees, and soon the trolley is almost full, so Leo has to keep putting it on the shelf behind him, and he has to explain that he doesn’t need it at home or has already used it. There is.

"There are a dozen socks of this color at home, and the quality is not good."

"It's not the year of birth, why buy me red underwear?"

"This towel is too thin and not soft."

"God, we don't have dogs at all, what are you doing with this teething stick?"

"No, I'm allergic to dog hair."

"The shelf life is too short, so buy less, or you'll take half of it with you? If you don't allow it on the plane, buy less."

"This ham, you can't drink it. I don't drink it either."

"Hey, what are you teasing him for? Look, he's crying. The baby is good. Uncle played with you. Look at this baby butterfly."

Lucas almost had an ADHD outbreak, and Leo couldn't let go for a while.

"Did you drink secretly?" Leo approached his mouth, and Lucas obediently opened his mouth to let him smell it.

"No. Why are you so excited?" Leo wondered.

While he was distracted, Lucas kissed him, succeeded in sneak attack, and watched Leo glaring at him triumphantly.

"Is there nothing to buy?" Leo asked looking at a cart of things.The queue for payment is very long, and it is estimated that you will have to wait for a long time.

"The weather forecast says there will be another snowfall later today." Lucas leaned on the handle of the cart and shook the phone in his hand towards Leo behind him.

"Will it be later?" Leo leaned over to look.

Lucas clicked on the airport's official website and flipped through it: "There is no announcement. It's okay to be late, so I'll stay with you for a while." After speaking, he slapped Leo on the face.

"There are children watching in front." Leo tilted his head.A three or four-year-old boy was watching them eat their hands, and his mother looked ahead anxiously.

Lucas made a face at the child, scaring the little boy to hide in front of his mother, and after a while he poked his head out to look, making Leo chuckle softly: "It's too noisy here, don't scare the child to cry, it's even worse." People are irritable."

"Then I'll tease you. What to eat when you go back?" Lucas asked back.

Looking at the things in the cart, Leo said: "There are beef, potatoes, carrots, onions, um, there are broccoli, peas, eggs, etc. at home, beef stew with potatoes, steamed eggs with broccoli, okay?"

"It sounds delicious. Are you hungry?" Lucas pulled out a bag of biscuits from the car and wanted to tear it open.

"I haven't paid yet." Leo snatched it and threw it into the car.

"Eat a piece, it's not like you don't pay for it." Lucas pouted.

"Don't set a bad example for your children." Leo pinched his nose.

"Okay, okay." Lucas lowered his body and got into Leo's arm holding the cart, which startled Leo. Looking at his smiling face, he was afraid that he would do something else , It's good to keep him honest for a while like this.

"The two girls in the back seem to be looking at us." Lucas suddenly whispered in his ear.

Leo turned his head and saw that the person behind him was a young man wearing earphones who was intoxicated. Behind him, there were two stylishly dressed girls smiling and whispering with each other, and glanced at them from time to time.

"I probably think my back is too handsome. Don't worry about it." Leo turned Lucas's head, "Have you booked your return ticket?"

"Not yet, the eldest brother said he ordered for the whole family. You remember to bring me a gift, because I will bring you a gift too."

"I'm the worst at buying gifts when traveling. The souvenirs I brought back from my previous trips were all thrown away by my family. What do you want? How about the food?"

"The food in the surrounding countries is similar, so you should take more pictures."

"Okay, I will send it to you every day."

"Don't be seduced by any girl."

"You're the one. It's hot over there, and people don't wear enough clothes. Don't look at any muscular man, he won't come back."

"I'm pretending to be you, baby."

Finally it was the turn of the two of them.After paying the bill, both of them walked towards the parking lot with bags in both hands.

"Lucas?" A hesitant shout suddenly came from behind.

Leo turned his head and saw a blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasian youth standing not far away.
