Chapter 21 The Magic of Lover's Tears
Li Haonan actually added a lot of clothes to himself. The independent cloakroom occupied almost half a floor, and the rows were full of various dresses, either exquisite or simple or generous or elegant and noble... There were many, and it was impressive. These dresses were brand new, and the tag labels on them had not been torn off.
Li Haonan chose a limited edition small dress with bright lines for Gu Xiaobei designed by Paris fashion designer Donna, Karan. This small dress is simple in style, exquisite in tailoring, and very good in details. Gu Xiaobei looks more youthful and beautiful when wearing it. His already fair skin sets off like snow.
Gu Xiaobei also likes this little dress very much. When worn on her body, it feels like a layer of water, and it feels very comfortable. Looking in front of the mirror, the gray color matches Li Haonan's suit, which looks like a couple outfit.
Just as Gu Xiaobei was thinking about how to change her clothes, Li Haonan pulled her to the dressing table aside. He lowered his head and opened the drawers on the dressing table and searched casually.
Gu Xiaobei looked at the full grid in surprise. The ones inside were full of dazzling diamonds, round pearls of water, and clear emeralds that could drip into the water...
During this period, she knew that Li Haonan had given her a lot of jewelry, but she had never had the heart to open it and read these things. Now when Li Haonan opened it, she didn't expect that there were so many! So expensive!
Even if these things are placed in a wealthy and powerful family, they must be placed in a safe, but in her jewelry cabinet, even dozens of carats of diamond jewelry are placed there casually.
While she was in a daze, Li Haonan had already brought a necklace that could blind human eyes to her neck. Gu Xiaobei looked at his neck in the mirror. It was a string of diamond necklaces that looked priceless. The dazzling diamonds reflected colorful and brilliant light.
Even if she just breathed slightly, through the natural light, every section of the diamond would shine with incomparable light. The dreamy colors of fireworks changed one after another, like countless small magical light balls. After the dazzling beauty, the diamond turned into crystal clear tears like magic, which seemed to be about to slide, making people unable to help but think of the woman's tears.
Gu Xiaobei was still foolishly immersed in the shock brought by the diamond necklace. Li Haonan had already taken her hand and walked downstairs.
Outside the villa, Xian Zhiming and several bodyguards were clearly stunned when they saw Gu Xiaobei.
*******
Chen Shuang's family Gu Xiaobei has been here, but after so long and so many things have happened, she came here again, and she felt a little vicissitudes when she was young and light. She kept looking at the sunshine that fell like crystal fragments outside the car window, and the leaves on both sides fell one after another. Although the sun was still bright, it could no longer cover the bleakness. Late autumn had arrived early. 2
Their cars kept driving into the villa. As soon as the car stopped, someone immediately surrounded them.
The banquet venue is open air, with colorful lanterns hanging over the sky, and there are at least one hundred people on the lawn in front of the villa. Almost all the rich people in the upper class gather here. Women are dressed gorgeously, necklaces on their necks are particularly dazzling, men are dressed up straight, and watches are shining. The tall artificial fountain is sprayed into a flower-shaped body, and the speakers hidden in the grass are filled with a very festive festival music.
Sister Hong smiled and greeted her. As the hostess at the family dinner today, she was wearing a cheerful red dress and greeted Li Haonan enthusiastically, especially when facing Gu Xiaobei, she showed no grudges, as if she didn't know the messy things that had happened before.
Li Haonan kept holding Gu Xiaobei's arm, calmly and calmly in the compliment of everyone, soldiers came to block the generals, water came to cover the earth, and scattered freely.
Gu Xiaobei, who was snuggling beside him, never dared to speak, but just showed a decent smile. Slowly, her smile became a little stiff because she found that everyone present would show various expressions when they saw the necklace around her neck.
It seems that the necklaces on her neck all showed a promising worship, and then looked her from top to bottom several times with a striking look.
Wen Yi Mo Hong Sister Chen Jiaqiang saw her necklace without making any sound, which was the expression that everything was expected; when Anya glanced at her necklace, her pretty face was covered with frost, and her expression was so cold that it was so cold that Wu Chuang nodded to her slightly when she saw Gu Xiaobei, but when she saw the necklace around her neck, she frowned slightly.
Gu Xiaobei became more and more uneasy. She was eager to get rid of Li Haonan and go to find someone to verify what magic the necklace had. At this time, she finally saw Chen Shuang, who was hiding in the corner, waving to her desperately, and she was so excited that she almost cried.
Of course, the keen Li Haonan understood her. He smiled at her, and then gently raised his hand to sort out a little hair on her temples. In Gu Xiaobei's flattered gaze, he said, "Go, go find Chen Shuang to play! Today is a buffet, go find some food with her!"
After hearing his old man's gift, Gu Xiaobei nodded in fear and was about to turn his head and run towards Chen Shuang, Li Haonan whispered from behind: "Don't run, wear high heels!"
Gu Xiaobei was so furious that Li Haonan stood up, and he retracted his legs that were about to run, and walked towards Chen Shuang in small steps.
"Ah!" Chen Shuang cheered and opened her arms enthusiastically to Gu Xiaobei, but before she could hold Gu Xiaobei into her arms, she suddenly looked at her neck and exclaimed, "Where did you get this necklace?" After that, she silenced and guessed.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with this necklace? Everyone looked at it this night and showed a look like you!" Gu Xiaobei hugged Chen Shuang, with a sob choked in his voice, "Chen Shuang, I didn't expect to see you again!"
"Xiaobei, I really want to see you again because I miss you; but I don't want to see you again because that means the escape plan has completely failed!" Chen Shuang's eyes also turned red.
Gu Xiaobei dared not speak for fear that tears would overflow with one move.
Chen Shuang pulled Gu Xiaobei to the buffet in a corner of the lawn, which contained roasted brown chicken wings, yellow bagels, red prawns, enthusiastic steaks, and various green fruits...
The two of them took a plate of food, went up the stairs from a small path next to it, and entered the villa. They both came to the sunny tower on the top of the second floor, where the noise was less loud and the bustling downstairs could be clearly seen through the large glass windows.
There are several wooden lounge chairs here. They put their food on the table, and they didn't care about eating and were busy talking first.
"Xiaoshuang, did I implicate you when I ran away last time?" Over the past few days, this question has troubled Gu Xiaobei almost every day, and now I can finally ask.
"Don't worry, it's okay. I'm Chen Jiaqiang's biological child after all!" Chen Shuang joked with a smile. Naturally, she wouldn't tell Gu Xiaobei about her trial. In fact, except for being a little scared on the day of trial, she really didn't feel wronged afterwards.
My father was really angry about this incident and wanted to hit her when he got home. My mother tried her best to stop him and was determined not to change. At this time, the phone rang. It was the phone from Uncle Li. He wanted to be a prophet and stopped Chen Jiaqiang's actions in time, and said that Chen Jiaqiang was not allowed to scold her or take her anger for this matter in the future.
"Really? It will be so easy to pass!" Gu Xiaobei stared at Chen Shuang's face half-believingly, trying to find clues from it.
"Of course it's true! I initially thought that my Uncle Li was letting me go because of my dad. Now, I think about it. Uncle Li, who is wise and powerful, has long predicted the ending. He was sure to find you back at the beginning, and I will continue to act as a good friend for you!"
After hearing Chen Shuang's words, Gu Xiaobei suddenly remembered He Zijun. His face darkened and he asked in a low voice, "Xiao Shuang, have you known some insider information about He Zijun recently?"
"I also saw it on TV. The news said that he had a car accident and was going abroad for treatment now, so I don't know anything else. Why don't I ask you about it!" Chen Shuang said with no memory.
"No, no, no!" Gu Xiaobei waved his hand repeatedly. She had already caused a lot of trouble to Chen Shuang. She knew that no matter who it was, there was a bottom line. Even if Chen Shuang made many mistakes, Li Haonan would not let her go. "He was indeed injured after we escaped. Maybe he had really gone abroad for treatment. By the way, where is Wu Chuang? That time I ran away secretly, is he okay?"
"It should be fine. I saw him eating and drinking well during this period and was lively. You haven't seen him wearing a suit and tie just now, talking about love with the beauties!"
"I said, you can't fall in love with Wu Chuang!" Gu Xiaobei looked at Chen Shuang with a sly smile.
"What are you talking nonsense? How could I fall in love with him?" Chen Shuang pretended to hit her.
"Then why I'm so sour when I listen to you!"
"Your heart is bigger than melons after being dried. You are like this myself, and you still have the intention to talk here!" Chen Shuang pointed to the necklace around Gu Xiaobei's neck, "Do you know what this necklace is called?"
"By the way, tell me what happened to this necklace. Tonight my neck became the most attractive place in the whole audience!"
"This necklace is called 'Lovers' Tears'. It used to belong to the British royal family, but was later won by my Uncle Li at a sky-high price. He threatened to give this necklace to his wife one day. You said that if you put this necklace out today, isn't it my Uncle Li who publicly admits that you are his wife?"
Chen Shuang finished speaking like a treasure, and saw that Gu Xiaobei was just lowering his head halfway and not having a big reaction in his emotions, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Why do you look indifferent? I mean, wearing this necklace, in everyone's eyes, you are my Uncle Li's wife!"
