Chapter 36 Adultery in the lounge
The entrance of a very artistic building.
Zhuo Zhiyan handed the car keys to the doorman to park the car, and then walked into his gallery with Gu Xinxin in a very gentlemanly manner.
……
Not far away, an orange sports car stopped on the side of the road, and the people in the car were watching...
Ah Fu cautiously persuaded: "Master, I think this person is just here to see the art exhibition, and it is not an affair. The relationship between our Jiang family and the Huo family is not harmonious. If you follow the young lady who has just entered the house like this, it might be wrong." It will deepen the conflict between our two families!"
Jiang Canyang disagreed, "What do you know! There must be something wrong with a man and a woman alone watching an art exhibition!"
With that said, Jiang Canyang got out of the car and went to the gallery to continue staring at Gu Xinxin.
The staff at the gallery door stopped him and said, "Sorry sir, you are not invited and cannot go in."
Jiang Canyang frowned in displeasure, "I am from the Jiang family, and our family and the Zhuo family are family friends. Why can't I come in?"
After hearing this, the staff turned around and checked with their colleagues on the gallery’s invitation list.
"In the Jiang family, only the eldest son Jiang Lieyang is on the young master's invitation list, and there is no such young master."
"This……"
Jiang Canyang heard what they were muttering, cleared his throat and said: "My brother is not free to come today, I am here for my brother!"
The staff thought for a while and said, "Then let him in."
"Young Master Jiang, please come in."
"That's pretty much it!" Jiang Canyang raised his handsome eyebrows and walked in swaggeringly...
……
Inside the gallery.
Gu Xinxin raised her head slightly and looked at the painting "Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes" on the wall, looking a little dazed.
"You don't seem to be interested in those world-famous paintings, but you have a special liking for Qing He's paintings?"
Zhuo Zhiyan's elegant voice came from behind.
He just went over to say hello to a few friends, and now he came back and stood next to Gu Xinxin again.
Gu Xinxin looked at him and said, "Yeah, I like it."
Zhuo Zhiyan asked curiously, "Why do you like Qing He so much? Her paintings are actually very niche and not popular with the mainstream."
"Because she is my... idol!" After seeing her mother's early paintings, Gu Xinxin felt a little complicated. She almost blurted out the word mother.
Zhuo Zhiyan smiled and said, "That's right! Then I'm lucky enough to meet your idol."
Gu Xinxin's pupils trembled and she looked straight at Zhuo Zhiyan, "Have you seen Qing He himself? When!"
Zhuo Zhiyan nodded, "I was lucky enough to see them once when I was young. My father also bought these three paintings from Qinghe at that time. Later, my father gave these three paintings to me."
Gu Xinxin's eyes were bright, "Then what kind of person do you think Qinghe is?"
Zhuo Zhiyan thought for a while, "She is a very beautiful aunt, gentle and cold. She has her own unique views on things, but her temperament is a bit aloof. Just like her own works, she does not cater to the public."
Yes, just like the mother she remembered, she was an aloof and cold person, but very gentle to her family...
Gu Xinxin asked him again, "Zhuo Zhiyan, are you selling these three paintings?"
Of course Zhuo Zhiyan understood what she was thinking, "Do you want to buy it?"
Gu Xinxin nodded.
Zhuo Zhiyan's eyebrows arched, "Unfortunately, I won't sell it. Every painting here has a commemorative meaning to me and is not for sale."
Gu Xinxin frowned, it would be difficult if she didn't sell...
Zhuo Zhiyan suddenly bent down, approached her ear leisurely, and said, "But if you like, I can give it to you as a betrothal gift."
Gu Xinxin twitched the corner of her mouth, showing disgust in her eyes, and ignored his joke.
Just as she was thinking about how to persuade Zhuo Zhiyan to sell the three paintings to her, a bad feeling suddenly came over her from bottom to top!
Gu Xinxin frowned and her face became ugly...
"What's wrong with you?" Zhuo Zhiyan noticed something strange about her and asked in a low voice.
Gu Xinxin had beads of sweat on her forehead and her lips turned a little white, "It's just that... I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable..."
Zhuo Zhiyan looked worried, "The air conditioner in the gallery is turned up a little. Did it make you catch a cold?"
"Maybe!" Gu Xinxin gritted her teeth uncomfortably, her body already starting to tremble slightly.
Zhuo Zhiyan took off his coat and put it on her body, and said warmly: "I'll take you to the lounge to have a rest. There's no air conditioning there, so the temperature will be a little higher."
"Well, thank you." Gu Xinxin was a little unsteady, so she could only accept Zhuo Zhiyan's support and follow him...
In the dark, Jiang Canyang filmed the whole process with his mobile phone and snorted, "In broad daylight, a man and a woman alone ran into the rest room where there was no one around. Who would believe it if they said there was no adultery!"
Jiang Canyang caught Gu Xinxin's handle and immediately sent the gallery's location to Huo Fan!
……
in the lounge.
Gu Xinxin's little face became increasingly pale, her whole body felt weak, and her teeth were chattering.
Zhuo Zhiyan brought her a cup of hot water, "Do you feel better? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Gu Xinxin held her abdomen in discomfort and shook her head slowly, "No need to bother, I'll just take a rest here. You don't have to worry about me, go out and accompany your friends."
Zhuo Zhiyan did not go out, but sat down aside and looked at her worriedly, "You seem to be afraid of going to the hospital?"
Gu Xinxin was stunned and did not deny it.
No one would be happy to be seen through by an outsider.
She really didn't like going to the hospital. When she was sick when she was a child, her mother took her to the hospital for infusion. When she woke up, her mother was gone.
She stayed alone in the hospital for seven days, feeling uneasy every day.
Later, her father Gu Baichuan appeared and told her that her mother had passed away. He picked her up from the hospital and took her back to the Gu family.
Seeing that he had guessed correctly, Zhuo Zhiyan did not ask any more questions, "My personal doctor will be here soon. You lie down and rest for a while. I will call you when the doctor comes."
"Thank you." Gu Xinxin felt too uncomfortable and did not try to resist. She lay down on the small bed in the lounge and curled up into a ball, hoping to relieve the pain and discomfort in her abdomen.
She was covered with Zhuo Zhiyan's coat, and later Zhuo Zhiyan ordered someone to bring a blanket and cover her with it.
at that time.
"Fanfan, you kid, why are you bringing grandma to a place like a gallery? Grandma doesn't like looking at paintings! There's still soup on the stove, waiting for Xinxin to come back and drink it!"
Huo Fan helped Mrs. Huo walk into the gallery and said with ulterior motives: "Grandma, you can see your favorite granddaughter-in-law when you go in!"
Mrs. Huo was startled and asked in confusion: "Fanfan, are you saying that Xinxin is here too?"
Huo Fan smiled sinisterly and nodded.
The gallery staff recognized the old lady from the Huo family and respectfully invited her in without stopping her.
Huo Fan took the old lady to meet Jiang Canyang in the gallery, and then the two of them took the old lady Huo to the lounge to catch the adulterer!
Jiang Canyang ignored the obstruction of the gallery staff and kicked open the door of the lounge. After entering, he happened to see Gu Xinxin leaning weakly in Zhuo Zhiyan's arms...
Mrs. Huo, who was still confused at first, was shocked when she saw the ambiguous situation in the lounge, "Xinxin?! You... what are you doing!"
