A Genius Remembers Love in One Second? This is a wonderful novel for you to read.
The footman didn't dare to say no. It took him a lot of effort to get close to Young Master Zhong. If he left a bad impression on Young Master Zhong and got replaced, all his efforts over the years would be in vain.
Moreover, Young Master Zhong came from a very mysterious family. Even though he was finally valued by Young Master Zhong and was allowed to follow him, he still didn't know the background of this family.
It wasn't that he didn't want to know, but he didn't dare to.
He didn't dare to talk too much. Young Master Zhong would tell you what he should know and what he shouldn't know when he was happy, but when he was unhappy, he didn't dare to be too smart and try to figure it out.
At the same time, he understood that Young Master Zhong was different from those useless rich second generation young masters. He was a real capable person who didn't show his emotions easily.
They had been here for about a month. Every week, Young Master Zhong would come to Gu Yue Zhai to chat with the eccentric old woman.
Apparently, the real owner of Gu Yue Zhai was a very difficult old woman to deal with. She had never treated Young Master Zhong well. Sometimes, the footman felt that he couldn't stand it, but his boss was calm and collected.
Therefore, the footman didn't dare to be careless. If this kind of boss did something wrong, he was afraid that he would not have a good ending. But if he did the right thing, he would get even more out of it.
The footman knew that Young Master Zhong must be interested in the old woman's granddaughter. Because every time he left, he would sit in Zhang Qingrui's office and didn't hide his admiration. But the girl didn't seem to be interested in him.
Later, the footman asked some people about Zhang Qingrui's situation. He knew that she was still a student, but she usually took care of the affairs in Gu Yue Zhai. He didn't hear that she had a relationship with anyone, so she should be single.
Then the footman found a suitable time to tell Young Master Zhong. Young Master Zhong didn't blame him for being nosy. He just nodded and said that he got it. But that day, Young Master Zhong was in a good mood. He bought a jade plate from an antique shop and gave it to Zhang Qingrui.
The footman knew that he made the right bet, so he paid more attention to Zhang Qingrui's affairs.
"I don't like you. You don't look like someone important."
Just as he was contemplating whether he should have a good talk about the background of the young man invited by Miss Zhang, he suddenly heard something that sent a chill down his spine.
This damned old woman!
But the lackey didn't dare to refute anything. His boss was acting so gentle in front of this nasty old woman. This old woman was annoying, but at least it proved that she could not be provoked. Therefore, he looked at the floor and pretended not to hear anything.
"If the Old Madam doesn't like it, then let him wait outside." Young Master Zhong smiled, turned around and said indifferently, "Cheng Yun, you wait outside."
Follower... Cheng Yun dared not show any dissatisfaction. He nodded and walked out of the room silently.
This was the office of the real boss of Gu Yue Zhai. Although there was a very modern plate outside, the decoration style of the room was antique.
The room was filled with screens, wooden porch, and bluestone slabs. A mortise and tenon structure was placed on the porch, leaning against the window.
There was a bead curtain hanging at the porch. Inside the porch was a small desk made of rosewood. On the left was a pen holder and an inkstone. On the right was a stack of ancient books.
In the corner of the room was a replica of Jiu Xiao Huan Pei. The body of the zither was clean. Obviously, it was not placed there often.
Seeing Cheng Yun leave, Old Madam Zhang gently waved the silk fan in her hand and said slowly, "Zhong's son is very patient. He's much better than your old man who is always like a gunpowder."
"Old Madam, grandfather has been concentrating on calligraphy and painting these years. He's much more peaceful now." Young Master Zhong replied.
Old Madam Zhang said, "I left the capital dozens of years ago. To put it bluntly, I just want to tell the people there that I, Zhang Li Fanglan, don't want to meddle in their affairs. I just want to enjoy my old age here. But one wouldn't visit a temple for no reason. I guess Old Zhong didn't ask you to come here because he remembered the past. "
Old Madam Zhang looked at Young Master Zhong. Although her hair was gray, her complexion was ruddy. She had a sense of oppression without being angry. "I think you've learned the rules these days. You're not impatient. I like the calmness of young people. I'll give you a chance to tell me your story. "
Young Master Zhong took a deep breath and showed a trace of joy. His efforts these days were not in vain. He thought for a while and said softly, "Luochen once heard some secrets from an old man in my family. He said there are all kinds of strange things in the world. It's not something we mortals can understand. "
He paused, and then said in an even steadier voice, "I heard that there is such a place in the world that can fulfill any wish of a person … This junior doesn't know much, but the old man who told me also said that Old Madam is the one who understands it the most."
Old Madam Zhang suddenly sneered, "Kid, you're really arrogant. You're even more reckless. Do you know that the place you're talking about is not a holy mountain, but a place where people make deals with demons? "
Young Master Zhong looked happy, "The legend … is true. Old Madam, you know that place … and even, you've been there. "
Old Madam Zhang waved the fan in her hand and turned hostile, "I'm not feeling well today. Go away. Don't come here again! "
Looking at Old Madam Zhang's cold expression, Zhong Luochen calmly reached into his pocket and took out a brocade pouch from his suit. After opening it, he poured out the contents. "Old Madam, Luochen knows that he was indeed a little too hasty. But time doesn't allow Luochen to slow down here. Today I got the news from home … so Luochen has to offend you. "
What fell out was a jade lock.
Old Madam Zhang's eyes slightly changed. She gently put the jade lock in her palm and carefully rubbed it. Finally, she sighed and said, "That year when I left that place, I couldn't bear to part with my poor sister who had been with me since childhood. So, I gave her this jade lock … Do you really want to use this favor?"
"Grandmother gave it to me before she died." Zhong Luochen said softly, "She said that if the Zhong family is in trouble, this is the only thing that can save us. I didn't want to use it. If it weren't for Old Madam's deep fear of that place, Luochen wouldn't want to take it out. "
Old Madam Zhang held the jade lock in her palm and took a deep breath, "You go back first. I need to think about this matter carefully. "
Zhong Luochen nodded solemnly, "I hope Old Madam can give me an answer as soon as possible."
"Tell me the reason first." Old Madam Zhang said.
Zhong Luochen said, "To be honest, it's about my grandfather. Old Madam, the doctor said that the hot-tempered Old Zhong you know is dying. "
…
…
There was a dazzling array of treasures, and all he saw were valuable treasures.
Luo Qiu admitted that he didn't know much about antiques, but he could feel the simple and unadorned aura of the things placed here.
But he didn't see the white jade token mentioned by Ren Ziling.
Knowing the purpose of Luoqiu's visit, Ren Ziling looked at Zhang Qingrui and asked, "Miss Zhang, is there something missing here? I remember there were some small things when I came here last time. "
Zhang Qingrui smiled, "Chief Editor Ren is really a reporter. Your eyesight and memory are really good. Yes, some things were sent away from the collection room. " “
She took out a picture album from a small shelf next to her and opened it, "These should be the only things left. We sent these things to the auction house and planned to auction them. "
Ren Ziling had sharp eyes, but Luoqiu's eyes were sharper. He saw the white jade token printed on the picture album at first glance.
Because of this white jade token, Luoqiu directly took the picture album from Zhang Qingrui's hand.
This was probably a very rude behavior. But Luoqiu stared at the picture album and began to look at it carefully.
But Ren Ziling was embarrassed!
She had to look at Zhang Qingrui apologetically, "My Luoqiu is also like this. When he sees something he likes, he does this …"
Zhang Qingrui shook her head, "We have printed a lot of pictures of this picture album. If you like it, you can take it back."
Luoqiu nodded. Obviously he didn't want to be polite, but he still maintained the bottom line of human relations … or he remembered the bottom line in this respect, so he added, "Thank you."
Since he knew the white jade token was no longer here, Luoqiu didn't want to stay. He walked towards the door while looking at the picture album. Ren Ziling looked helpless.
She basically skipped work today and even asked for favors. But this guy left as soon as he saw the thing was no longer here. He didn't want to leave any leeway at all.
Zhang Qingrui also felt a little embarrassed, but she was well-mannered since she was young, so she didn't want to say anything … For the sake of their friendship.
Ren Ziling couldn't stand it in the end. She directly pulled Luoqiu's arm, and said with a fake smile, "Since you are here, take a good look."
She enunciated the words "take a look" very clearly, and her hand that grabbed Luoqiu's arm was also very strong.
Luoqiu had no choice but to look at it casually. But suddenly he frowned and walked towards the corner of the collection room.
"What's this?"
Luoqiu pointed at the glass cover in the corner … A black card that he couldn't be more familiar with.
On the black card, there were two dark golden marks.
