The antique shop of the rich fake master

The two lowered their heads at the same time, and the water was sprinkled on Lin Xiangyu's indescribable place.

Except for certain small movies, TV dramas don't dare to shoot such clichéd plots anymore.

Always feel a little weird.

Pooh~!Qu Qiuli couldn't hold back, and made a rare joke, "How old are you? The water is not stable?"

Lin Xiangyu smiled heartlessly, "Fortunately, the water is not hot."

Otherwise, his children and grandchildren may not be guaranteed at all.

"Hurry up and change your pants." Qu Qiuli urged him, "It's winter, and I don't know how uncomfortable it is to wear wet pants."

"It's okay, I'm wearing long johns." Lin Xiangyu stood up, "It's not wet inside."

long johns?

It is very inconsistent with the temperament of the future overlord.

A real overlord should have the courage to face the severe cold and the scorching heat.

Suits and leather shoes should be worn all year round, and they should be dressed so neatly that they can attend the press conference at any time.

These few words suddenly flashed in Qu Qiuli's mind, and the smile on his brow and eyes could not be stopped no matter what.

His fake big brother obviously has a well-defined and domineering handsome face, and his figure looks good, why is he always so down-to-earth?

Lin Xiangyu's back was hairy, and he always felt that his long legs in long johns were starting to feel cold.

Quickly went back to the room and changed clothes.

Things on the Internet are still fermenting. For several days in a row, this has been a hot topic on the Internet.

Qu Qiuli was still a little nervous. After all, it was difficult to tell the origin of the antiques in his shop, but fortunately, someone picked up the news that he had found missing bronzes in the ghost market.

This also proves in disguise that Qu Qiuli is indeed very discerning.

In the thousands of years of culture, there are not many antiques handed down. As long as you have eyesight and connections, you won't have to worry about finding authentic ones, so no one thinks much about them now.

Last time it was serious news, not many young people paid attention to it, but this time it is entertainment news, more and more young people are pouring into the ranks of picking up leaks.

The recent flow of people in the ghost market should not be bad.

As for the antique shop, business has recently risen to frightening heights.

He was lying at home, receiving account information every day, and donating a lot of money.

Diao Xiaoyun's ability is not bad, and she can handle it alone. Even Qu Qiuli said that she would go back to the store to help, but Diao Xiaoyun refused.

This, if there is a commission, she will naturally work hard.

And she can also distinguish who is here to watch the excitement and who is here to buy things.

Most of those watching the excitement are ordinary working-class people, who are usually reluctant to spend money to buy an antique to take home for collection, and they are even cautious when looking at it.

I'm afraid that if I break it, I won't be able to pay for it.

As for those who come to buy things, the direction is relatively clear.

Some people just entered the door and asked if there were any calligraphy and paintings of a certain age, and porcelain from a certain age. Almost no one like this left the shop empty-handed.

Qu Qiuli looked at the work report she sent every day, and felt quite at ease.

Tomorrow is his birthday, and he doesn't know what kind of gift he will receive this year.

When he was a child, he never missed any of the toys that other children had. In fact, he was fortunate countless times that he had a mole on the tip of his nose that was almost exactly the same as Lin Xiangyu's.

Although he was not biological, he never felt that he was an orphan.

He could tell that, except for Lin's mother's first two years of insanity, in the following ten years, his parents never regarded him as a substitute.

This is also the courage for him to face the title of fake young master with peace of mind when he grows up, and he never thought about finding his biological parents.

Lin's father and Lin's mother are really the best parents in the world.

Although he doesn't like birthdays, he still looks forward to receiving gifts.

The next day, when Qu Qiuli woke up, his phone was full of blessing messages.

There are a few acquaintances, colleagues in the research room, various banks and various software...

Qu Qiuli thanked everyone one by one.

Until, he turned to the bottom one.

It was from Lin Xiangyu.

Looking at the time, it was sent at exactly zero o'clock.

In the days at home, sleeping on the bed he was familiar with felt very at ease, so Qu Qiuli's work and rest schedules were very healthy, that is to say, he missed the message at midnight last night and went to bed early.

But now, I suddenly discovered that there was such a person who, in order to give him birthday blessings as soon as possible, kept watch every minute until zero o'clock.

In fact, this is very normal, but most of it happens between couples or girlfriends.

Are he and Lin Xiangyu brothers?Do brothers also get stuck sending blessings?

Doesn't this feel a little strange?

This is an experience he has never had before, and he doesn't know why, when he saw this blessing message, he was a little nervous.

It was originally very simple to reply with two words, just a thank you.

But he always felt that the word thank you was not enough to match Lin Xiangyu's blessings.

After thinking about it, he was about to reply when Lin Xiangyu sent a message.

Lin Xiangyu: "Are you writing a short composition?"

Qu Qiuli's face became hot, and he replied a few words in a panic.

Qu Qiuli: "No, I just turned it on and I was washing up, so I didn't turn it back."

Lin Xiangyu: "Then wash up and go downstairs to eat, the longevity noodles are going to be lumpy."

Eating longevity noodles early in the morning?

Qu Qiuli went downstairs after washing up, and the whole family was sitting in the dining room.

"Happy birthday, A Li." Lin's father and Lin mother looked loving, "A Li is one year older, and the new year should be healthy and happy."

"Thank you, Mom and Dad." Qu Qiuli gave Lin's father and Lin's mother a hug like in previous years.

As soon as he finished hugging, he saw Lin Xiangyu looking at him with bright eyes.

Qu Qiuli: "...???" Why do you feel that something is wrong?

Brothers also want to have a blessing hug?

Before he had time to figure it out, Lin Xiangyu had already hugged him and patted him on the back very manly.

"Happy birthday, Ah Li, I will have my brother around in the future, and I will support you."

Qu Qiuli: "..." Sure enough, he was thinking too much.

"Eat breakfast first." Lin's mother pulled Qu Qiuli, "Xiang Yu stewed the soup base last night, and got up early this morning to make noodles. He said that we would make longevity noodles for you together. He and I Dad hasn't eaten yet."

Qu Qiuli: "..." This should be brotherhood, right?

He didn't think about it in a hurry, but Lin Xiangyu had already pressed him on the seat, "Try it and see if it suits your taste. If it doesn't suit you, I'll change it and make you another bowl tonight."

Qu Qiuli warmly picked up the chopsticks, found the top of the noodles, and took a small bite into his mouth. The noodles were very chewy, with distinct layers of taste, and the soup was also very delicious.

Three-point noodles, seven-point soup.

Lin Xiangyu, a man who grew up in the Northwest, actually made the longevity noodles into the graceful and delicate style of the southerners.

"Brother, thank you, I like it very much, this is the best longevity noodle I have ever eaten."

Hearing that he said he likes it, Lin Xiangyu felt relieved. This is the recipe he has been looking for on the Internet for a long time.

In his eyes, a gentle and delicate boy like Qu Qiuli should eat this kind of delicate longevity noodles in the south, not the thick and thick longevity noodles that the northerners are bold and unrestrained.

Lin's father and Lin's mother also benefited from Qu Qiuli's favor. Lin Xiangyu didn't favor one person over another, and cooked noodles for the two elders.

"Xiang Yu's cooking skills are pretty good." Lin's mother sighed, "Neither your father nor A Li has the talent to cook."

Speaking of this, she suddenly thought of those years when her son suffered outside.

The children of poor families have long been in charge of the family, and they don't know what kind of suffering Lin Xiangyu suffered when he was a child in that remote mountainous area.

They don't want to mention it, and they don't dare to mention it easily. They can't bear it, and they will feel distressed.

And Lin Xiangyu didn't take the initiative to mention these things. When he was recognized back then, he only said a few vague words. The old man who raised him was dead, and he told Lin Xiangyu the truth before he died.

Lin Xiangyu then went to the police station and asked for a DNA comparison, so he got in touch with Lin's father and mother in the database.

Others, Lin Xiangyu didn't seem to want to say more.

Presumably, life in those years must have been bitter.

In fact, from the details of life, Lin's father and Lin's mother, who are meticulous, can find many small problems in various small places.

For example, Lin Xiangyu actually knows how to cook, but his taste is average.The way of cooking is also relatively wild, basically they are stewed in a big mess, the standard is that they can be eaten after they are cooked, and because of this, it is possible to get a glimpse of how difficult his life was.

They can't help imagining the appearance of a little boy, stepping on a small bench, cooking with a rural earthen stove.

Also, Lin Xiangyu didn't like to spend money, and was even a bit stingy, but he was only stingy at himself.

In their view, it is normal to buy a few pieces of clothes tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but Lin Xiangyu doesn't think so. Except for the necessary formal clothes, the private clothes he buys are all small popular brands.

It stands to reason that before Lin Xiangyu returned to Lin's house, he already had a very good income among ordinary people, but what kind of growth environment can make him develop a mentality that he dare not spend money even if he has money?

And so on, there are many, many small details.

Mother Lin didn't dare to think about it. If she thought too much, she would feel distressed and blame herself. What she could do was to make her son's future life worry-free.

After breakfast, it's the end of the year, and today the Lin family has a shareholder meeting to be held, and both Lin's father and Lin Xiangyu must attend.

Mother Lin and Qu Qiuli are the only ones left at home.

"Go for a stroll with mom?" Mother Lin suggested, "You're one year older, so it's time for new clothes."

Qu Qiuli had no objection and went out with Mother Lin.

Let the driver go straight to the best shopping mall in Anshi when you go out.

First-class water is all world famous brands.

In fact, Qu Qiuli sometimes wondered, if he hadn't come to the Lin family, what kind of family would he have been adopted by?What kind of day will it be?

In Lin's family, not to mention the family affection that Lin's father and Lin's mother gave him, but the economic conditions have never made him feel embarrassed or embarrassed. It was only after he decided to start a business that he started not to use the family's money.

Otherwise, he alone, a student, would not be able to support the funding of the research room for the first two years.

In fact, not only him, but even Shen Shiqi's financial situation has never been in short supply. Although he is not as good as him, at least his conditions are much better than those of other wealthy sponsors.

On such a beautiful day, don't think about that white-eyed wolf.

It's just that he didn't think about it, and that person appeared in front of him again.

"A Li, Auntie!" Shen Shiqi was dressed casually, and it looked like he was here for shopping today.

Qu Qiuli nodded coldly, taking it as a response.

Lin's mother still doesn't know what Shen Shiqi did some time ago, and Shen Shiqi promised her and Lin's father when he came back from abroad that he would never harass Qu Qiuli again and just be an ordinary friend, so her attitude Fairly mild.

"Is Xiao Shen here to buy things too?"

Shen Shiqi nodded, "It's almost Chinese New Year, and we need to buy some things at home."

After speaking, he said to Qu Qiuli: "Happy birthday, Ah Li!"

In fact, he also sent a blessing to Qu Qiuli this morning, but Qu Qiuli did not reply to him, as expected.

"Thank you." Qu Qiuli still looked alienated.

Shen Shiqi looked calm, as if he really didn't care, and then took out a gift box from his shopping bag, "This is a birthday present for you. I originally planned to send it to your store in time, but I didn't expect to meet it today. Just for you."

"No need!" Qu Qiuli didn't pick up the gift box.

Shen Shiqi looked hurt, "The past is over, but at least we are still friends who grew up together. Isn't it normal for friends to give birthday presents? Besides, it's not something valuable, just a gadget That's all."

Qu Qiuli still didn't answer. In his eyes, since he doesn't like the other party, then don't accept any kindness or overtures from the other party, let alone give the other party wrong signals.

For a while, the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

As for Qu Qiuli, an amateur who only appeared on a TV show some time ago, even though he was wearing a mask, he was still recognized by several young ladies.

Coupled with the fact that he and Shen Shiqi are both outstanding in height and temperament, many people have already noticed this.

"Xiao Shen, let's take it back!" Lin's mother originally thought that accepting a gift was a small problem, but Ah Li didn't want to accept it, so she felt that as a mother, she should stand up and help Ah Li solve this trouble.

Even Lin's mother spoke up, but Shen Shiqi didn't force her anymore.

But he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he walked around with the mother and son for a while.

It's not easy for the mother and son to push people away in public.

Shen Shiqi seems to be fairly well-behaved, telling some interesting things about his work from time to time.

Lin's mother thought to herself, after all, she was considered the grown-up child of Lin's parents, and she responded with a few words from time to time.

On the surface, the three seem to be in harmony.

But Qu Qiuli could hear something was wrong.

He heard from Lin Xiangyu before that Shen Shiqi was sent by him to a branch company as a manager.

The benefit of branch management is naturally not as good as the development prospects of the future assistant to the president.

So he felt that Shen Shiqi still wanted to go back to the head office, or he wanted to go back to Lin Xiangyu's side.

Qu Qiuli never thought of getting involved in Lin's work, but he had seen Shen Shiqi's ambitions before.

Although he can't be sure whether Shen Shiqi has learned to be good in the past few years abroad, but he has an intuition that Shen Shiqi seems to be cooling down his skills, and it seems that he may make a big move at any time.

It's too dangerous for such a person to stay with such a simple person as Lin Xiangyu.

He was about to say something when Mother Lin spoke first.

"I don't know anything about the company." Lin's mother used to have a free love with Lin's father, and Lin's father also loved Lin's mother, so after decades of marriage, she never participated in the work for a day, and has been living the life of a rich wife .

She knew the reason why the youngest son didn't like Shen Shiqi before, but now the eldest son doesn't like Shen Shiqi either, so there must be a reason too.

Since the eldest son sent Shen Shiqi away, there is naturally a reason for him.

So, Lin's mother continued, "You have to work hard in the branch company, and take care of yourself at ordinary times. If you have time, come back to Lin's house for a sit-down."

The words were full of concern, but Shen Shiqi's heart was cold.

He has been in the Lin family for so many years, so he has naturally managed some contacts of his own, but these contacts are all based on the fact that he is the sponsor of the Lin family.

And there is an unwritten rule in the rich and powerful circles, that is, their funding targets will be qualified for important positions in the company in the future.

Even branch executives.

So no matter which branch of Lin's family he went to, he still had a bit of face, and others praised him.

Also includes the branch where he is now.

His position in the company is not low, but his power is limited, and he has no access to the core of the company.

When he first went there, the other managers of the company thought he was out for training, and flattered him a lot, but over time, flaws would always show up.

Now, the attitude of those high-level officials towards him has become much colder.

And he came here specially with the mother and son today, that is to say, this encounter was actually the result of his careful planning.

He knew Lin's mother was soft-hearted, or a few hints could improve the current situation.

But he didn't expect Lin's mother to protect the calf.

The gloom in Shen Shiqi's heart is getting heavier and heavier. If he had known earlier, he should have smothered the infant Qu Qiuli to death in the orphanage.

In this way, maybe he is the only support object of the Lin family, even the adopted son, instead of the outsider who is dispensable nowadays.

He changed his mind and thought, if he hadn't been able to control his thoughts for a while when he saw Qu Qiuli, who had just grown up, be so bewitching, maybe he wouldn't have been sent abroad to stay for so many years.

After all, it was all because of Qu Qiuli!

Such a person, if he can't get it, he will also be destroyed.

No matter how dark his heart is, how much hatred is rising, the perennial qualified expression management still makes him smile like a spring breeze, "Auntie is right, I will definitely work hard, so that I can repay my uncle and aunt's training for me and kindness."

Lin's mother nodded, she was quite satisfied with his attitude, "Then you should go get busy too, it's the end of the year, and Ah Li and I are going to have a beauty treatment."

It means that you don't need to take him for beauty treatment.

Shen Shiqi smiled and said jokingly: "Auntie is well maintained, and now she looks similar to when I came to Lin's house, and there is almost no sign of aging at all."

There is no woman who doesn't like being told that she is young, especially a woman like Mother Lin who is over fifty years old.

These words were ironic, and it was rare for Lin's mother to show a sincere smile, "Look at what you said, you are usually busy with work, so you have to take care of yourself."

Shen Shiqi pretended to be embarrassed and smiled, "Then can I take a photo with you?"

Qu Qiuli wanted to be wary of him and was about to refuse, but Shen Shiqi looked pitiful again.

"A Li, Auntie. We haven't had a photo together for several years." Shen Shiqi was sad, "I treasure all the old photos very well."

The Lin family has a tradition to take a photo together during the Chinese New Year.

Before Shen Shiqi showed his feelings for Qu Qiuli, and the Lin family was Shen Shiqi's sponsor.

So before that, every New Year's day, Shen Shiqi spent time with them at Lin's house, and took photos with them.

In the past few years of stocking abroad, it is naturally gone.

Mother Lin thought, taking a photo is not a big problem, "I'll take it with you, A Li never liked taking pictures since he was a child."

Although Shen Shiqi acted a little regretful, he was still very satisfied.

He took out his mobile phone and asked Qu Qiuli to take pictures for him.

Lin's mother agreed, and Qu Qiuli didn't refuse this time. After a simple composition, he took two pictures.

"Thank you!" Shen Shiqi got what he wanted, and left obediently without further entanglement.

"Mom, thank you!" Qu Qiuli was talking about Lin's mother's rescue of him twice just now.

Mother Lin smiled, "You child, we are a family, so naturally you are more important."

As for Shen Shiqi, if he is obedient and grateful, then they will not treat Shen Shiqi badly, but if he has other thoughts, it will not work.

The two went shopping for a while, and Mother Lin bought a watch for Qu Qiuli as a birthday present.

Qu Qiuli readily accepted.

But then Mother Lin really took Qu Qiu away from the beauty salon.

"Mom?" Qu Qiu couldn't leave Sister Li. He is a man, what does he do for beauty?

"Bring you here to see the world." Mother Lin smiled, "You are also 22 years old this year, and you have reached the legal age of marriage. You should know more about what girls like? Otherwise, how will you fall in love in the future?"

Then she thought again, Ah Li's appearance and temperament are so good, there should be no shortage of targets.

Qu Qiuli suddenly froze.

He has grown up so much, he has never really liked anyone, but since elementary school, he has received many confession letters from men and women, and he has been blocked from confessing in public many times.

All of this, he was vaguely aware that his sexual orientation seemed to be different from that of most people.

Now that Lin's mother brought up this topic, he was a little nervous.

He knew that Lin's father and Lin's mother were very open-minded people, but this topic was still relatively heavy for most traditional Chinese parents.

If there is such a day...

Qu Qiuli didn't know what to say when the time came.

Forget it, it's still early, at least you have to have someone you like before you can think about a showdown with your parents.

"What? Are you shy?" Mother Lin teased him, "It's time to fall in love at this age, and your brother is about the same age. I was already pregnant when I was his age."

She is also worried.

Their Lin family has a high family background, but they don't ask for anything, they must be of the same family, as long as the children like it, it is fine, but why are the two sons not seen dating.

Hey... worry!

Qu Qiuli, listen, what does it feel like?Why does it seem like he is going on a blind date with Lin Xiangyu?

No, no, that's definitely not the case.

"Mom~!" Qu Qiuli acted coquettishly, "I'm still young and don't want to get married, so don't rush me, I'm not in a hurry, I'm still starting a business, you can urge Big Brother to go!"

Without hesitation, he pulled Lin Xiangyu out as a shield.

Just a dull pang of conscience.

Lin's mother thinks about it too, young people nowadays get married late, it's okay for Ah Li to wait another five or six years, but the boss can think about it first.

She had already started to think about it.

Qu Qiuli really accompanied Lin's mother to have a beauty treatment, and even Qu Qiuli was forced to have a facial SPA on a recliner.

What is going on when you are a little tired when you go shopping with a woman?

In fact, he has his own skin care products, and it was a few years ago when big-name privates came to customize skin care products for Lin's mother, and Lin's mother also helped him do a skin test and ordered skin care products.

After that, it will be delivered on time every quarter every year, and the recent skin condition will be visited regularly.

It's just that Qu Qiuli's skin has always been in good condition, and he rarely uses skin care products. Even if he goes to the archaeological site for a month or two, it won't change much.

It's probably due to genes.

In the evening, the family got together again.

The kitchen cooked a large table of dishes, which were very rich, and basically all of them were Qu Qiuli's favorite dishes.

The family talked and laughed happily.

After the meal, candles were blown out and small cakes were eaten.

According to previous years, it is the link of giving gifts.

Mother Lin has already given a watch this year.

Lin's father gave away a house and a car in previous years, but this year he went to get a stack of contracts, "Ah Li, let's sign!"

Qu Qiuli didn't know why, so he was shocked when he took it over.

It is Lin's [-]% stake.

A [-]% stake in a listed company is almost an unimaginable value for ordinary people.

As far as Qu Qiuli knows, Lin's father holds 50.00% of Lin's shares, while the others are small shareholders, ranging from 5.00% to [-]% on average, which means that Lin's father has almost [-]% of Lin's shares. control.

Now Lin's father gave [-]% to Qu Qiuli, and Qu Qiuli became the second largest shareholder of the Lin family. If Qu Qiuli disagreed and joined other shareholders, the Lin family would probably have to change their name.

What kind of trust is this?

Qu Qiuli felt that the contract under his command was as important as Mount Tai.

"Ah Li, don't be burdened." Lin's father explained: "This is originally for you. We have considered that if you don't want to join the Lin family, we will give you a branch company to play with, but now you have started your own business. , After we thought about it, we still feel that this is more realistic, apart from attending the necessary shareholder meeting, we just wait for the dividend.”

Lin's mother handed the pen to Qu Qiuli's hand and chimed in, "Your father and I only have you two children anyway, and these things will be left to you sooner or later."

Lin Xiangyu was also in the muddy water, "Ah Li, you can just sign it. You don't like management, so just leave it to me in the future. I will help you make money."

This family of three.

After careful consideration, Qu Qiuli still refused. He never thought about these things that did not belong to him in the first place. What he cared about was the inexhaustible affection of Lin's father and Lin's mother.

The family of three didn't force him, but just handed him the contract for him to think about it.

Having said all this, Qu Qiuli accepted the contract. After all, it was up to him whether to sign or not.

Next is Lin Xiangyu's gift.

Not only Qu Qiuli was looking forward to it, but even Lin's father and Lin's mother were also looking forward to it.

Lin's father and Lin's mother discovered early on that his eldest son's aesthetics might be somewhat different from that of the public.

But when they saw their eldest son take out a crystal ball as big as his head, they were still speechless in shock.

Qu Qiuli was stunned, and everyone else was dumbfounded.

Dear, search Taobao for gifts for girlfriends, which are the kind of gifts that make girlfriends cry when they receive them.

The only difference is that Taobao is a glass ball, about the size of an adult man's head, while Lin Xiangyu's is a genuine crystal ball, the size of an adult's head.

The crystal ball is also connected to a base, and there is a switch on the base.

Qu Qiuli could even imagine how gorgeous and colorful beams of light the crystal ball will emit after the switch is turned on.

It is so gorgeous that you seem to have entered a dance hall in the 80s.

"How is it? Does Ah Li still like it?" Lin Xiangyu may be weak, and he didn't feel that there seemed to be something wrong with the atmosphere.

He continued, "I don't have any experience in giving gifts. I have thought about it for a long time before I came up with such a gift. I hope you like it."

Qu Qiuli: "..."

Looking at Qu Qiuli's silent face, Lin Xiangyu asked tentatively, "Don't you like Ah Li? I'll think about something else, and I'll make it up for you tomorrow."

"No." Qu Qiuli quickly stated, "I just haven't seen such a big crystal ball, I was a little shocked, I like it very much, thank you, brother, this is the most special gift I have ever received."

It's quite special, a white crystal with the size of a head is really uncommon.

I don't know where Lin Xiangyu found it.

Lin's father and Lin's mother looked sympathetic, sympathetic to Ah Li for receiving such a wonderful gift, and also sympathetic to the eldest son's future daughter-in-law; they didn't expect that their eldest son was actually a straight male cancer.

How will you find someone after this?Mother Lin began to worry again.

But Lin Xiangyu was happy, "It's fine if you like it. I also specially asked someone to customize it. After you go back to the room, turn off the light, and then turn on the switch to have a look. I think you might like it."

Qu Qiuli took the crystal ball silently, and it probably weighed more than ten to twenty catties. With this size and weight, it could be placed at the gate of the community as a round stone pier to stop traffic.

People tend to despise etiquette and attach importance to affection, but Lin Xiangyu's crystal ball attaches great importance to affection and etiquette.

He was so moved that he was about to cry.

The family sat together tenderly, and when it was time to go to bed, Lin Xiangyu took the initiative to move the crystal ball into Qu Qiuli's room, and put it neatly on the bedside table.

I also specifically told you to close the curtains and turn on the switch after turning off the lights.

Qu Qiuli felt numb.

He often feels that he and Lin Xiangyu are out of place because of their aesthetic differences.

He nodded numbly, and watched Lin Xiangyu leave the room.

After washing up, lying on the bed and getting ready to sleep, the crystal ball that can be placed on the bedside table has a strong sense of presence.

It's hard for you to ignore it!

In a strange way, he stretched out a finger from under the quilt and poked the switch.

As a result, nothing happened.

Repeated several times, there is no colorful lights as he imagined, let alone retro disco.

Could it be broken?

He suddenly thought of Lin Xiangyu repeatedly telling him to turn off the lights.

So, he uncontrollably turned off the lights in the whole house.

As soon as I looked up, in an instant, the sky full of stars was in front of my eyes, and sometimes there were meteors passing by.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

The heart beats uncontrollably, and the drums are as dense as rock music with a strong sense of rhythm.

Lin Xiangyu actually gave him a starry sky.

He remembered that not long ago when Lin Xiangyu went to Dongshi to pick him up, the two chatted about when he used to go out to do archaeology.

Inadvertently chatting, in those remote areas, although the conditions are very difficult, you can look up at the starry sky every night.

The starry sky is a very healing scene, and he likes that kind of night very much.

At that time, he just accidentally mentioned that he couldn't see the starry sky in the city, and he felt a little regretful.

Lin Xiangyu remembered it and brought the starry sky in front of him.

Is this really straight?

Qu Qiuli didn't want to think about it.

Only real straight men will generously give such romantic gifts to the same sex.

Well, it must be so.

It's just that the starry sky flashed overnight in Qu Qiuli's room.

When I went downstairs the next day, I happened to meet Lin Xiangyu coming out of the morning exercise in the gym.

"I like the crystal ball very much, thank you." Qu Qiuli expressed his love sincerely.

Lin Xiangyu smiled knowingly, "I knew you would like it, hehe!"

Qu Qiuli also laughed, how silly!

The Chinese New Year is coming up in a few days, and Qu Qiuli promised his parents to celebrate the New Year at home.

But he still had to go back to the shop.

Diao Xiaoyun has been working for so long and has never taken a vacation. He really has been a hands-off shopkeeper for a while.

During this period, Diao Xiaoyun performed well. In addition to the normal salary and commission, Qu Qiuli also planned to give her a year-end bonus and give her a few days of annual leave.

When he walked into the store, he suddenly felt that the year-end bonus he had prepared seemed a little low.

He saw Diao Xiaoyun weaving something with red thread and ancient coins.

Ancient coins are the cheapest things in his antique shop.

According to the time and year, as well as the degree of preservation and rarity, it ranges from a few hundred to a few thousand.

There are a lot of fakes, but there are also many genuine ones handed down, so except for certain years, they are basically cheaper and easier to collect.

Big customers look down on such things, and no one came to buy them before.

Now Diao Xiaoyun puts the coins on the red thread, which can be used as pendants, bracelets, anklets and so on.

Other antique shops also sell them like this, but he and Zhao Yinian were the two big men in the shop before, without this skillful hand, he would never have thought of this one.

"Boss, are you here?" Diao Xiaoyun now admires her young boss very much.

With his own strength, he has driven the flow of people in the entire antique street.

She put down the braided bracelet in her hand, "There have been a lot of people visiting the antique market recently, but most of them are there to join in the fun. The price of ancient coins is reasonable, and occasionally someone will buy one as a souvenir."

So she thought, if weaving it into a finished product, it would be much easier to sell.

Sure enough, several girls came to buy these two days.

There is a folk superstition that ancient coins with red strings can ward off evil spirits, and they are bought as bracelets.

Qu Qiuli nodded, "It's okay, you can make it up, and the extra money from the sale will be paid for your work!"

Diao Xiaoyun was flattered.

Originally, I thought that after getting so much commission, I should do more for the boss to be worthy of this high-paying job.

Usually she was alone in the store, and the boss never worried about her changing the antiques in the store.

This boss is really a kind person.

When she got the commission and the year-end bonus, this idea became even deeper.

"It's fine to come to work on the third day of the new year." Qu Qiuli asked her to go home directly, "I'll just watch these two days, and it's closed for the New Year."

Diao Xiaoyun became more determined. In the coming year, she must shine for her boss, make the antique shop bigger and stronger, and create another glories.

"Then... can I take these ancient coins home and edit them?"

"Yes." This is not an expensive item. Qu Qiuli believes that Diao Xiaoyun, a single mother, has brains and will not give up a better future for this little thing.

Qu Qiuli sent Diao Xiaoyun out to ride an electric car.

As soon as they walked out of the store, they heard arguing from across the street.

Listening to the voice, it is an acquaintance again, not just one.

Why do you keep encountering this kind of thing?

One is Han Yue and his little follower, and the other is the young master of the Shi family, Shi Cheng.

He always felt that Han Yue was just out of his mind, not hopelessly bad down to the bone, but Shi Cheng was different.

Five years ago, Shi Cheng hit someone while racing in the middle of the night and escaped. He lost a lot of money, but he still sang behind bars for more than three years, and was later sent abroad by the Shi family.

I guess it's coming back for New Years now.

As far as Qu Qiuli's feelings towards these real young masters, like Han Yue, he didn't bother to talk to him, but Shi Cheng who repeatedly jumped on the edge of the law made him very disgusted.

It happened today, and Qu Qiuli didn't want to care about it at first.

Listening to their quarrel, it was Han Yue and Shi Cheng who were arguing with the boss.

It seems that they "accidentally" broke a piece of jade, and the boss asked them to compensate for the original price.

In the antique market, there is such an unwritten rule, no matter what you smash is real or fake, it is true in the mouth of the boss.

You can pay whatever you want.

Countless people fell down here and lost their entire family.

But if the customer really broke it accidentally, that's all.

However, some unscrupulous merchants deliberately look for things with inconspicuous cracks. As soon as customers get started, they will point to the cracks when they return it, and earn money for this compensation.

Maybe Han Yue and Shi Cheng will meet this kind of boss?

"Boss, we have quarreled several times recently." Diao Xiaoyun said angrily, "This kind of person will destroy the atmosphere of the industry."
