morbidly addicted

Fu Jingxing didn't even notice what was on the stand, and immediately raised his placard to bid.

This is right, this is the only way to live up to him bringing her to this scene, otherwise he would almost fall asleep bored.

The starting price of this painting was [-] million, and it was gradually increased to [-] million. There were only two competitors left, one was Fu Jingxing, and the other was the face of country M.

Fu Jingxing didn't care about the small sum of money, but Li Jingman began to feel a little uncomfortable when he heard the people from the auction house call out the figure of [-] million.

"Or forget it."

She said with a little regret: "Actually, I didn't like that painting that much."

Fu Jingxing's expression didn't change when he heard the words, but he directly added a bigger one, raising the price to [-] million, which caused gasps and screams from the audience.

Li Jingman couldn't believe it: "Didn't I say forget it?"

Amidst all the screams, Fu Jingxing calmed down and said calmly, "Why forget it? It's rare for you to ask me what I want. This is the first time. Of course, I must satisfy you."

If she is not satisfied the first time she speaks, with the personality of a little fairy, if she is disappointed in him, he will not be able to wait for the second time in his life.

Fu Jingxing already knew Li Jingman quite well. Although he didn't see anything special about that painting, since she said she liked it, he would definitely let her have it.

The man from country M also realized that it would not be good for him to compete any longer, so he found a waiter to send a message to Fu Jingxing, and then raised his cards again.

Impatientness flashed across Fu Jingxing's eyes, and just as he was about to raise the placard again, Li Jingman embraced his arms with both hands and held him down.

"Fu Jingxing, I don't want this anymore."

She looked into his eyes seriously and shook her head firmly.

The waiter also arrived at this time and whispered something to Fu Jingxing. Fu Jingxing frowned and listened for a while, then put down the number plate in his hand.

Li Jingman heaved a sigh of relief, the painting finally fell into the hands of the M country businessman.

Fu Jingxing grabbed Li Jingman's hand, kneading and playing casually like holding a toy, ambiguously without knowing it: "Choose another one."

Li Jingman has long been used to his various weird little habits, let him entertain himself, and looked at the auction stage indifferently, but there is really nothing that interests her, and she doesn't want to force herself to speak To cater to Fu Jingxing.

After not seeing any special behavior from her for a long time, Fu Jingxing sighed lightly and said nothing more, when the waiter who had just sent the message came over.

"Mr. Fu, the things have been packed. Would you like to pick them up now or send them directly to your home?"

Fu Jingxing glanced at his watch, a few minutes after eight o'clock, and then at Li Jingman's lost interest, he didn't want to waste any more time.

"Let's get it ourselves."

Ten minutes later, Li Jingman saw the painting of Su Dongpo under the guidance of the waiter.

People's first reaction can't be fooled, Fu Jingxing noticed that the corner of Li Jingman's lower lip was slightly bent, and the boredom in his heart dissipated a little.

"Isn't this picture taken by a man from country M? Why is it here?"

"It's yours now, and you can do whatever you want with it."

The two were chatting, when the M countryman who had been bidding with Fu Jingxing just now came out, he was a middle-aged man with a kind smile, and he took the initiative to talk to Fu Jingxing.

Fu Jingxing casually dealt with the other party with a few words and sent him away, his smiling eyes turned cold the moment the man left.

The old stuff in country M is slick. Knowing that he and McLean are going to disrupt the stock market in country M, they came to curry favor with him in advance and build a good relationship with him.

This kind of dispensable petty favor is the most annoying, and he is not short of tens of millions, but the other party has made up his mind not to let him take the money, and there is nothing he can do about it.

Three months later, country M is doomed to undergo a new blood change. Some people will go bankrupt, and some will ascend to heaven.

Since that person tried so hard to connect with him, it would be difficult for him to cross the river and tear down the bridge. To meet Li Jingman, that person should have this opportunity, and he will let him go.

Fu Jingxing deliberately brought that person to a place far away from Li Jingman to talk, so Li Jingman didn't know what they were talking about, nor did he know what the painting in her hand represented.

She could only vaguely judge that that person was trying to curry favor with Fu Jingxing, so she pursed her lips and lowered her eyes.

It is said that China is a society of human relations with mixed fish and dragons, but it is not the case. This set is popular all over the world.

"That person gave you the painting? Did he ask for you?"

Fu Jingxing replied casually: "It's just an exchange of benefits."

He paused, embraced Li Jingman, his eyes fell on the painting, and naturally changed the subject: "What's so special about this painting?"

He also tried to ease the relationship between the two of them by giving Li Jingman things before, but she really seldom expressed a clear preference for anything, which made him a little bit at a loss.

It was the first time he saw this situation today, and she didn't stop him before [-] million yuan, which showed that the value of this painting in her heart was worth the price of [-] million yuan, and Fu Jingxing was very curious about her basis for judgment.

Li Xiumei is a researcher of traditional Chinese culture. Under her influence, Li Jingman was already studying history when he could understand books. Naturally, he also had acquaintance with some iconic historical figures, including Su Dongpo.

Since Fu Jingxing asked, she also told him a little bit about the history and origin of the painting and Su Dongpo's background at that time.

The torrent of history is very long, and it is impossible for Li Jingman to narrate it all at once. She only picked some representative ones that are interesting and attractive to laymen and told them to Fu Jingxing.

She didn't speak fast, but slowly, her tone was flat but very logical. Even Fu Jingxing, who had no research on these things, found that she could listen with relish.

He suddenly turned his face and stared at the way Li Jingman was staring at the painting when he was speaking. Li Jingman noticed his actions, and looked at him lightly, and then turned his gaze back to the painting. superior.

A strange feeling flashed in his heart, just like when he first saw her, his heart beat very fast, as if he could feel joy in his heart just by seeing her.

At the same moment when Li Jingman finished his last sentence, Fu Jingxing grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.

"It's getting late, let's go home."

He began to regret throwing away all the history books in the study of the Fu family in order to get angry with the little fairy.

At that time, he only thought of using deprivation of her hobbies to force her to voluntarily submit to him and beg for mercy, but he forgot how stubborn Li Jingman was.

What he did at that time was just to push her away again. After the books were gone, she really stopped digging into the study, but her eyes also lost a little bit of vivid color.

After today, he realized that it was precisely because he deprived her of the only fun in Fu's family at that time that she could not find spiritual sustenance to connect with Xia Luoshu again.

It's a bit ridiculous, he had been trying to find a way to please her, but he didn't know that he had already found it, and because of his improper handling, he personally sent her to Xia Luoshu.
