soulful game

Chapter 22

"

Shen Qingshang held up the shell.That's right, the temperature that once stuck to his heart has long since sunk into the ice cave [-] feet below the deep sea, and it won't warm up either.Today is the final day. He, Shen Qingshang, wants to sell the shell that once contained his childhood thoughts and his only true heart. In such a decisive way, he will complete the unfinished farewell in the snow mountain.

The master of ceremonies looked at the host of tonight's charity auction in embarrassment, and his eyes seemed to say: A lunatic came to smash the venue, but we don't know whether to take his seriously crazy words seriously.

Under everyone's attention, Jue slowly stood up, one step at a time, and walked towards Shen Qingshang.Shen Qing could still hear the footsteps clearly, every step knocked on his heart.

With one hand, he solemnly took the shell that was lifted in the air, even straightened the red thread, and held it carefully.

Ji said: "All the money from the charity auction will be used as charity, and all of it will be donated to charity. A lot has a price, but love is priceless. Therefore, there is no distinction between high and low. In my eyes, every lot is It’s all priceless.”

He deliberately emphasized those two words.Shen Qingshang thought, is this for me?What does this person... mean?After ruthlessly playing with other people's feelings, dare to mention something priceless.You deserve it too?

Shen Qingshang stared blankly at Jue carefully putting the shell pendant into the silver plate on the auction stage.The master of ceremonies was embarrassed and didn't know how to introduce the lot, let alone how to quote the reserve price, so he could only look at Ji for help.

Moe motioned for him to step down, picked up the small hammer, leaned over to the microphone and said in a firm and soft voice: "Mr. Shen from China, sponsor a shell pendant, thank him for his generous dedication to charity, the starting price... ..."

The audience was surprisingly quiet, and everyone looked at the new helm of Zianini's family with incredulous eyes, playing games with a lunatic from China, and acting like a real thing.How would he put a price on this worthless thing?

"3000 million!" Before Yi could start, another voice from the audience sounded at the right time.The audience gasped, watching the uncle who was also from China go crazy with them, and joked with so much real money when he was crazy.

"Thirty-one million!" The people in the audience couldn't understand what was going on right now. Even Miss Macleay stood up and joined the nonsense camp.

At this time, the hammer on the auction table suddenly rang, and Ji raised the hand holding the hammer, and made a gesture to signal the silence of the audience: "Thank you Mr. If you are really interested, you will be interested, so I am willing to invite you to bid again, no matter what the bid price is, I am willing to add 100 million to bid back."

The commotion among the crowd has reached its peak. Of course, no one bids. The focus of everyone's attention is no longer why a worthless shell was fired for a sky-high price, but what is wrong with Master Zianini's brain!

Ms. Macleay also saw that the matter was not simple, and she stood up: "Since Mr. Zianini is so fond of this lot, I am willing to part with it, and I withdraw my bid. Let this lot go Here you go."

Heishi crossed Erlang's legs, tilted his head and looked at Ji meaningfully.Lue said that he would let the audience call the price again, and now the audience will see if he wants to increase the price, but continuing to increase the price under such circumstances is tantamount to taking advantage of the danger.

"No problem, I'll give up my love too. I'll pay 3000 million, and I'll take the photo as a gift for Mr. Zianini." Heishi smiled brightly.

"Boom—" the hammer dropped to the table, and the deal was concluded.

"Thank you, Mr. Zheng. If that's the case, I will send another Yelanhua diamond cufflink to my house some other day as a gift to Mr. Zheng. This shell..." Jue held it up like a treasure, and put it into the close-fitting chest. In the pocket of the suit, "I just accept it with a smile."

The perfect smile.There was a buzzing sound in Shen Qingshang's mind, and everything went into chaos.

夜凉

The auction was over, everyone moved to the top floor, and the open-air dinner tonight officially started.The open air is not all, it is a circular garden-style open-air restaurant, surrounded by a ring of fragrant night orchid gardens.Even better, this is a revolving restaurant with a 360° panorama. Guests can sit on their seats while dining, while enjoying the night view from different angles as the top floor rotates.

——It is in line with the usual extravagant and high-profile style of the Zianini family.Shen Qingshang snorted coldly in his heart.

The guests are in it, pushing glasses for a change, sipping champagne, and tasting the best French delicacy lobster dinner.There is also a band playing soft blues jazz, and the candlelight on the rattan table is covered by candlelight. The air is filled with the faint fragrance of wine, mixed with the faint fragrance of night orchids, and the atmosphere is quite ambiguous and intoxicating.

Shen Qingshang turned the knife and fork, his eyes glanced at the man in the night from time to time.Ji was wearing a well-crafted and well-crafted suit solemnly. How could he have the slightest miserable appearance when he was pinned down on the ground and vomited blood?Thinking of the bloodstains on the corner of his mouth at that time, but his face was calm and his breathing rhythm was not disturbed at all, Shen Qingshang felt cheated again.

That Miss Macleay found an excuse to sit next to Ji at some point, and they ate at the same table, showing the joy of the host and guest.

A golden boy and a jade girl seem to be a good match, Shen Qingshang secretly satirized in his heart.That shameless woman, with ambiguous and seductive eyes, whispered in Chang's ear, whispering something, and her legs under the table brushed against each other intentionally or unintentionally.After a while, I didn't know what to say in a low voice, the woman covered her mouth in feinted surprise and took an exaggerated breath, then laughed wantonly.

Do you need to be in such a hurry to show your affection?The more Shen Qingshang looked at it, the more unhappy he felt. He poked the French Black Forest cake in his hand to pieces.

"Hey, hey, it's like that if you poke it again, it doesn't offend you." Heishi pinched Shen Qingshang's fork to stop it.

"No appetite!" Shen Qingshang curled his lips at Ji's table pointingly, and stood up angrily, "No appetite, don't eat!"

Shen Qingshang found an empty corner and stood there alone looking at the starlight of the city below.

Looking down from such a height, there is actually nothing to see.Street lights, cars, pedestrians, and billboards on the roadside are all just small dots with little radius.

The people and things in this world, when you are in them, you will feel that many of them are hurdles that cannot be overcome, but if you stand a little higher and look at them from a distance, in fact, everyone is just a drop in the ocean, what money, Power, love, desire...all are just dreams of prosperity, and you will wake up at dawn.

Shen Qingshang looked at it, his eyelids were a little sore.He felt very tired. He didn't know what he had done in his 22 years of life.He just wants to rest now.Yes, I will go back to China tomorrow, stay away from this ghostly place that makes him sad, and take a rest now, what does it matter?Who cares?If the old ghost wants to send someone to kill me, then come and kill me.

Shen Qingshang even thought to himself, at least there are still people in the world who want to kill him, and his existence is not completely meaningless - that's good.After thinking about it, he leaned against the back of a wooden garden swing and fell asleep.

I don't know how long he squinted, but it felt like it was only about twenty minutes. Shen Qingshang's head sank and he woke up in a daze.There seemed to be fewer people in the dining area in the distance, and Hei Shi didn't know when he went to the band performance area to tease the young guy playing the saxophone.

Suddenly, Shen Qingshang felt something laying on his body. He looked down and saw that it was an off-white velvet coat, which was soft to the touch and made of high-quality materials. It was expensive at first glance.It was this thing that brought him a moment of warmth on this cold winter night.

The author has something to say

When I write, I like to turn on the music and enter the scene.Then I thought, I should share the background music, maybe it is also a feature of my article.

When I wrote this chapter, I listened to "Theme from Schindler's List" (the movie theme song of Schindler's List), which is a bit sad music.

In the previous part of climbing the snow mountain, I strongly recommend Huang Huiyin's "The Other Shore (Sanskrit Chanting-Meditation Edition)", which is quite out of the way and quite Buddhist, haha~

Decide

Shen Qingshang was carrying a suitcase, standing at the entrance of the villa, looking at a sycamore tree with bald leaves across the street.

They are leaving the United States today. They have to take a car to the airport, fly from City K to Los Angeles, and then transfer back to China through LA.Although the previous scene of feigning death at sea was directed and acted by Heishi himself, in order to reassure Shen Qingshang, because of the mediation and protection of the Zianini family, the US police never received any report from him from the beginning to the end. any news.But this is not City S after all, and Blackstone can't be too ostentatious here, so instead of taking a helicopter, they decided to ask the driver to drive them to the airport.

"咻~" A melodious whistle brought back Shen Qingshang's ecstatic thoughts.Heishi lowered his pouted lips and asked him, "What are you thinking?"

Shen Qingshang shook his head, opened the door, and was about to get into the car.

"Reluctance?" —— This old man insisted on which pot he would not open and which pot he would carry, and he would be happy if Shen Qing was still upset.

"Smoking your cigar!" Shen Qingshang got into the back seat of the car wrapped in wind and frost, and stuffed a cigar into Heishi's non-stop mouth.

"Hey, where did you get the coat, the velvet one, Italian designer haute couture
