Hu Qiu and I looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Just now we thought that Peter's words were just excuses, but we didn't expect that it was true.
"What happened? What happened to you?" Hu Qiu asked curiously.
Peter shook his head helplessly, but did not say what happened.
"By the way, Qiu, there will be a private auction held in the capital in a while. Do you want to go over and attend?"
Before getting into the car, Peter suddenly said to Hu Qiu.
"What kind of auction?" Hu Qiu was somewhat interested.
"It seems to be an antique auction. It is said that there are many good things from ancient times in your country. It seems that there are also some legendary Taoist items and things used by ancient wizards. It is said that these things have mysterious powers. I am going to
I'm going to take a photo and give it to my old father. If I don't please him again, my job as the president of the bank will be over!" Peter said helplessly.
I couldn't help but laugh or cry when I heard what he said, but the information revealed in his words made my heart move slightly.
There were Taoist items at the auction, and he thought they were left over from ancient times many years ago. I wonder what they are?
"When?" Hu Qiu asked.
"About half a month later!" Pete said.
Hu Qiu glanced at me and shook his head regretfully: "What a pity. I'm afraid I don't have time."
"Oh, that's such a pity. I was still thinking of inviting my dear Zhang to go with me. Since you won't go, I guess he won't be able to go either, haha..."
Hu Qiu and I also laughed, and then the three of us waved goodbye.
After leaving the bank, Hu Qiu drove the car back the same way, and I sat in the car thinking about something.
What happened tonight always felt like a dream, with an extremely unreal feeling that was difficult to digest for a while.
"By the way, don't you want to go and have a look?" Hu Qiu suddenly asked me.
"You mean the auction?" I came back to my senses.
"yes!"
"I would like to go, but I'm afraid I don't have time. I don't know how long it will take to go to Northeast China this time."
Hu Qiu nodded and said nothing.
But I don’t know why, when I thought that the things Pete mentioned might appear at the auction, I suddenly felt that I should go and take a look.
"Do you think this Pete is reliable?" I couldn't help but ask, really curious about where he got the information.
Hu Qiu looked serious.
"This Pete is not simple. His family is an ancient family in Europe with hundreds of years of history. His father is the contemporary patriarch. The strength of the family is unfathomable. If you have the opportunity, you can have more contact with him. He is still a good person.
Quite interesting!”
"so smart!"
"Yeah, I didn't know he had such a big background at first!" Hu Qiu said.
"But this Pete doesn't seem to be trained by his father very much!" I said with a smile.
"How do you know?" Hu Qiu looked at me in surprise.
"His father left him so far away. Even a fool can see that as his biological son, if his father really liked him, he would have kept him by his side no matter what!" I said.
Hu Qiu nodded appreciatively, "Indeed, what you said is true. In fact, Peter is the smartest among his brothers, but he is the least popular. Do you know why?"
"Why?" I couldn't help but become curious.
"Do you know Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper?" Hu Qiu suddenly asked.
"You know, what does this have to do with the Last Supper?" I was a little confused.
Hu Qiu smiled slightly, "Speaking of which, this matter is quite interesting. Peter has a total of 12 brothers. He happens to be the twelfth, and his father is a loyal follower of Jesus."
I was stunned for a moment and said, "His father is quite good at giving birth to so many sons!"
"What I'm talking about is not that his father can have a son, but that he is a Christian." Hu Qiu said dumbfounded.
Only then did I react and immediately understood what was going on.
"You said that's why Peter doesn't accept his father's favor?"
"Yes, that's why!"
"This is too arbitrary. Peter is his biological son, and he is not Judas who betrayed Jesus. Is there something wrong with his father?" I said with disdain.
"That's not necessarily the case. For paranoid religious believers, their beliefs are crazy, and once people are involved in such things as belief, they often have no sense at all, let alone similar things. It is indeed true for them
It happened to my family.”
"No way! Something similar happened. Peter wouldn't really want to stab him in the back, would he?" I suddenly became interested.
"That's not true. In fact, it's not a big deal. I heard from Peter that it was during a bidding meeting that the news about their family was leaked for some reason. As a result, the business failed. It is said that the loss was not small!" Hu Qiudao.
"Will Peter leak it? If so, then he is really Judas!" I said in surprise.
"I don't know about this, but I know Peter. He should be said to have been wronged. Someone deliberately wanted to slander him, but his father didn't believe him at all, so he sent him to our country to establish this bank. This
It's equivalent to being sent overseas!" Hu Qiudao.
"No wonder Pete said something like that just now. It seems that he is not easy to do as a bank president!" I sighed.
"Yes, a wealthy family is as deep as the sea, no matter where it is!" Hu Qiu sighed.
"Are you talking about yourself?" I couldn't help but tease.
Hu Qiu rolled his eyes at me, "That's why I gave him this fat sheep of yours."
"You want to help him?" I glanced at Hu Qiu calmly.
"That's right!"
"Why? Because of friendship?"
"This is just one aspect. Of course, there are also personal thoughts. If Peter can gain a more important position in his family, it will not be a bad thing for us. After all, he is also a direct descendant of their family." Hu Qiudao.
I clicked and said nothing, not knowing how to evaluate this matter.
Hu Qiu glanced at me secretly through the reflector and asked cautiously:
"Do you think I'm a bit snobbish?"
"No, normal people would do this, right? Besides, you did help him, and he is now grateful to you!" I said.
Hu Qiu seemed to notice that I was not sincere, and did not explain to me. He just said to me calmly:
"A shopping mall is like a battlefield, and it is a battlefield where gunpowder can't be seen. Crisis is everywhere. I have lived in such an environment since I was a child, so I must learn to operate and protect myself!"
At this point, she paused slightly and said, "If you don't like it, I will change it!"
Hu Qiu said these words naturally to take care of my feelings, and it also moved me deeply. I am naturally not a tough-hearted person. In fact, if I think about it carefully, if I were in her environment,
It will definitely be the same as her!
"How could it be? You are a famous talented woman in Seoul. To be honest, I'm just a little jealous of you. Why don't I have such a good mind like yours?" I said with a smile.
"I'm serious!" she said seriously.
"I'm serious too."
Hu Qiu looked at me in surprise and couldn't help but laugh.
"But I don't think what you said seems to be true?"
"If it's written on your face, is it true?"
"That's what you said!" Hu Qiu said with a smile.
"Let's take this matter for example. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of transferring funds at all. If your second uncle really used some means to freeze my property, wouldn't my hard work be in vain?" I said.
said.
Speaking of Hu Tiangang again, Hu Qiu's expression suddenly became solemn. After a moment of silence, Hu Qiu suddenly said:
"Jiuyang, you must be very confused about our family!"
When I talk about this topic, I also become serious. This is indeed the biggest mystery in my heart.
Hu Qiu took a deep breath.
"If you have any questions, just ask and I will answer them for you!"
