He Qinglan looked at the man and woman in front of him.

The man is tall, straight, mature and steady, while the girl is young, tender, gentle and beautiful. Putting aside the difference in their family background and social status, they are surprisingly harmonious and a perfect match.

Last time at Madam Yu’s birthday party, Yu Hanshen stood up to defend a classmate of the nanny’s daughter, and she felt that something was wrong. Later, at the bottom of the stairs, he reached out and grabbed the little girl’s wrist, and she felt that something was wrong even more.

But she still held out a glimmer of hope. How could Yu Hanshen, with such a serious and dull personality, have any feelings for such a young girl?

But he moved.

He Qinglan's gaze fell on Si Tong's waist, where Yu Hanshen's hand was, his bony fingers clasped the girl's slender waist, with a sense of declaration and possession.

She and Yu Hanshen have known each other since childhood. The He family and the Ji family in Beijing are old friends, and He Qinglan's aunt is Yu Hanshen's second aunt.

When Yu Hanshen was a child, he often stayed at his uncle's house, and He Qinglan often stayed at his aunt's house.

Yu Hanshen has been a serious and quiet person since childhood, but He Qinglan is a talkative and lively person, always following Yu Hanshen and chattering.

Yu Hanshen had never expressed annoyance, so He Qinglan thought he was different.

Later, He Qinglan fell in love for the first time and realized her feelings for Yu Hanshen, but because of the girl's innate reserve and shyness, she waited for Yu Hanshen to speak first.

Yu Hanshen didn't bring up the subject until they were about to graduate from college. She had hinted that she hoped he would take the initiative to break the window paper.

Yu Hanshen still didn't take any action. He Qinglan was a little angry at his overly dull personality. Did he want her, a girl, to take the initiative to confess?

With a bit of a spiteful mentality, she chose to study abroad after graduation and deliberately cut off contact with Yu Hanshen.

She thought Yu Hanshen would take the initiative to reconcile with her, but he didn't.

But Yu Hanshen has been single for so many years, and He Qinglan thought that he was waiting for her.

It's just that his personality is too old-fashioned and boring, and he doesn't know how to chase girls.

As long as she wanted, she could come back to him at any time and continue to be the little girl who was chattering around him.

So she returned to China, with her career and a determination to break through the window paper.

But I didn't expect that there was someone else around him.

He Qinglan looked at Yu Hanshen, forcing back the tears in her eyes, and said in a coquettish tone: "Mr. Qi's paintings are always very expensive. I may not be able to afford them."

"I heard from Third Brother that you have a few paintings by Mr. Qi. If I can't afford them later, can you give me one and give me a lower price? Okay?"

As He Qinglan spoke, he glanced at Si Tong with a hint of provocation in his eyes.

She and Yu Hanshen have known each other since childhood. Let alone transferring it at a low price, even if it was given away for free, Yu Hanshen would agree.

He Qinglan still has this confidence.

Si Tong did not miss the pride in He Qinglan's eyes.

She also knew that Yu Hanshen had always been generous. Since she met Yu Hanshen, he had spent a lot on her.

Giving a painting to He Qinglan doesn't seem to be a difficult task.

Si Tong turned his head and looked at the cars beside him, not wanting to see Yu Hanshen's expression when he agreed.

Even if she felt uncomfortable, she had no right to say anything, after all, it was not hers.

Who knows.

Yu Hanshen refused directly: "If you can't afford Mr. Qi's paintings, I will give you what you can afford."

"The auction is about to start, let's go first." After saying that, he exerted a little force on his arms and took Si Tong to the elevator, with no intention of waiting for He Qinglan to join them.

After Si Tong's brief surprise, the corners of his lips curled up.

He Qinglan stared at the two people's backs in a daze, his face embarrassed.

How could he refuse so coldly and bluntly?

They have known each other for so many years...

He Qinglan clenched the retro handbag in her hand, took several deep breaths, put a noble and elegant smile on her face again, and walked towards the elevator in high heels.

However, his heart was in turmoil and his feet suddenly staggered.

"Ah!" She screamed in pain and fell to the ground. She felt a sharp pain in her ankle. Subconsciously, she looked up at Yu Hanshen.

At this time, Yu Hanshen and Si Tong had already entered the elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed.

She saw the man's eyes, calm and deep, without any ripples.

In the elevator.

Si Tong also saw He Qinglan fall. He Qinglan's heels were quite high, so he must have fallen quite hard.

She couldn't help but look at Yu Hanshen, "Miss He fell down."

Yu Hanshen's hands gently pinched the girl's waist. The girl's waist looked thin, but it felt very soft to the touch, with tight muscles and soft skin.

"So?" he asked casually.

Si Tong looked at him, "Haven't you known each other for many years? She fell down. As a friend, shouldn't you show some concern?"

"She is not a child. She will get up by herself if she falls." Yu Hanshen's words were a little cold.

The elevator was slowly going up. Si Tong stared at Yu Hanshen's serious and stern face for a while, and suddenly felt that this man was cold and somewhat ruthless.

You were ruthless in refusing to help the painter just now, and you are even more ruthless in not helping the injured now.

However, she felt happy in her heart.

Imagine if He Qinglan fell down, and Yu Hanshen ran over anxiously to help her up, and He Qinglan leaned into his arms and said her feet hurt, and then Yu Hanshen picked her up and sent her to the hospital, scolding her distressedly for not walking properly...

Si Tong shook his head to get rid of the horrible scene in his mind. He felt that Yu Hanshen, who stood by and watched, was more likable.

This is probably the charm of mature men. They will face different opposite sexes with different attitudes, and can clearly distinguish between people around them and outsiders.

Thinking of this, Si Tong quietly hugged Yu Hanshen's strong waist, raised her little face, and looked at him happily.

Yu Hanshen noticed the girl's emotional changes and was infected. A smile appeared in his eyes and he touched the girl's pointed chin. "Why are you so happy all of a sudden?"

Si Tong smiled: "I won't tell you."

Yu Hanshen laughed along.

Auction hall.

Si Tong was holding the auction number plate he had just received in his hand, and was entered by Yu Hanshen, holding his waist.

The two were seated in the middle of the first row, a position that not only offered the best view but also represented the bidder's worth.

The more assets you have during the capital verification, the better the seats the auction house will arrange for you.

Many people had already arrived at the auction site, and everyone was dressed very formally. Si Tong looked down at herself. Fortunately, Yu Hanshen reminded her to change her clothes.

Otherwise, it would be a bit strange to appear here wearing a T-shirt and jeans.

Just as she sat down, Si Tong heard someone calling her from behind. The voice sounded familiar: "Tongtong."

Si Tong looked in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar face again. It was Shen Yanxi.

Shen Yanxi sat behind Si Tong. She looked at him with a smile and said, "When I was getting my number just now, I saw someone who looked like you. I didn't expect it was you. What a coincidence."

As she spoke, Shen Yanxi's gaze fell on Yu Hanshen who was next to Si Tong.

Yu Hanshen leaned lightly against the back of the chair, his long legs wrapped in crisp suit pants casually crossed, his hands resting on his legs with fingers interlocked, his sitting posture was leisurely and casual, yet he still had the style of a big boss of the group.

The man's shoulders are straight and broad, and he looks reliable and strong, which makes people want to rely on him.

Shen Yanxi quickly turned her eyes away. She wanted to say hello to Yu Hanshen, but Yu Hanshen clearly heard her voice but didn't even turn his head. She didn't dare to call him.

She was afraid of him to begin with, and she became even more afraid of him after Yu Hanshen gave her a sharp look at the dinner party in Siqing City to solicit investment for Zhimo Institute.

Si Tong greeted with a smile, "Mr. Shen."

Shen Yanxi said: "Calling me President Shen is too distant, just call me Xixi."

Si Tong smiled but said nothing.

The conversation was about to become awkward. Si Tong was not familiar with Shen Yanxi and had nothing to say.

Before the conversation got awkward, Shen Yanxi smiled and introduced Si Tong, "This is my mother. She just returned home a few days ago."
