Chapter 454 Antiques from the Qing Dynasty

This restaurant only had a dining hall, so it was hard to pretend that they didn’t see Cao Wenxin and her friend, unless the two girls walked to the opposite side . However, a waiter guided Cao Wenxin and her friend walking right in their direction . What was worse, Cao Wenxin met Xu Jinchen’s eyes the next second, and it would be rude if Xu Jinchen still said nothing .

“Oh, hi, Miss Cao! What a coincidence! Would you mind dining with us?” Xu Jinchen said politely .

Cao Wenxin gave Xin Bei a glance, and rejected . “Thanks, Mr . Xu, but we already booked a table . ”

She directly ignored Xin Bei . After that, Cao Wenxin followed the waiter, walking to a table which was in front of Xu Jinchen’s .

When Ai Xinyu saw Xin Bei, she was quite surprised . “Wenxin, how small this world is! You know the terrible man’s friend?” Ai Xinyu said to Cao Wenxin .

Although Ai Xinyu kept her voice low, Xin Bei and Xu Jinchen still heard it . Xin Bei was displeased at once, but Xu Jinchen laughed quietly .

Cao Wenxin felt a little embarrassed and explained . “Actually, it was just a misunderstanding . He isn’t a terrible man . The woman was his girlfriend and she dumped him because he had nothing before . And now that he’s successful, the woman came back to him . They’re all my brother-in-law’s good friends, and we dined together last night!” She disliked Xin Bei, but she wouldn’t damage his reputation .

“What?” Ai Xinyu was surprised . “Did you get along last night?”

“Well, we argued for a while,” Cao Wenxin said .

“Wenxin, I told you that you’re too impulsive sometimes, and now you hurt an innocent man,” Ai Xinyu said .

“It wasn’t my fault! You witnessed what happened yesterday too, and it was so easy for others to misunderstand it . ” Although Cao Wenxin admitted that she had mistaken Xin Bei, she didn’t think it was all her fault .

Xu Jinchen and Xin Bei finished their meal earlier . Before they left, Xu Jinchen gently said good-bye to Cao Wenxin, and his polite attitude left a great impression on the two girls .

“I think that this man is handsome and polite . If he’s single, why don’t you try getting to know him better?” Ai Xinyu said to Cao Wenxin .

Cao Wenxin thought for a while . Xu Jinchen was indeed an outstanding man no matter from what perspective, but she had no feelings towards him yet . Therefore, she decided to be patient .

When Cao Wenxin and her friend finished their meal and went to pay the bill, the waiter told them that Xu Jinchen had already paid for them . They were amazed .

“Wow! He’s not only handsome and gentle but also very generous!” Ai Xinyu complimented .

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went to have a walk in the area around the siheyuan after their meal . Soon they came to Beihai Park .

“Do you want to take a boat on the river?” Leng Shaoting asked .

“Sure!” Gu Ning said excitedly .



Afterwards, they rented a small boat and other than Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, there was only a boatman on the boat . They appreciated the view along the river, while the boat moved ahead slowly .


Gu Ning sat next to the boat’s edge . So when she noticed a goldfish surfacing near the boat and it seemed like it was dying, she held it in her hand and put some power into it . Before long, the goldfish was alive again .

Seeing that, Leng Shaoting was surprised, but didn’t say anything .

Gu Ning joked, “It’s a goldfish and we can’t eat it, otherwise I’d bring it home and cook it . ”

Leng Shaoting smiled and gently rubbed Gu Ning’s head . “If you want to eat fish, we can buy a fish later . ”

Gu Ning blinked . “Aren’t you allergic to seafood? Fish is seafood too . ”

“I’m not allergic to fish,” Leng Shaoting said .

“Nice! We can have fish this afternoon,” Gu Ning said with a smile .

Gu Ning’s favorite food was seafood . Unfortunately, Leng Shaoting was allergic to seafood, so she never mentioned having seafood when she was with Leng Shaoting .



After Gu Ning put the goldfish back into the water, the goldfish didn’t swim away but jumped right in front of Gu Ning, like it was performing for her . In addition, Gu Ning had a strong sense that the goldfish was looking at her gratefully, which astonished Gu Ning, but she didn’t say anything . Leng Shaoting also had the same strange feeling and he was as astonished as Gu Ning, but he didn’t say anything either .

An idea suddenly dawned on Gu Ning, and she immediately used her Jade Eyes to see what was in the water .

The water was murky but it became crystal clean before Gu Ning’s Jade Eyes . There were many fish in the water along with thick aquatic plants . Right when Gu Ning was about to draw her look back, a vermilion wooden box the size of a 50 cm suitcase appeared in her sight .

Are there any antiques in it? She thought to herself . Gu Ning looked inside of the wooden box, and she was right . There were many antiques in the box . Gu Ning recognized some of them, like several porcelain bottles from the Qing Dynasty . All the antiques were from the palace during the Qing Dynasty .

Gu Ning guessed that it was possible that someone had stolen those antiques from the palace but had been discovered, so the antiques were abandoned to the river . They were sailing on the moat now, and there had been ancient palaces next to the moat .

Gu Ning got excited and was caught by Leng Shaoting .

“What happened? Why are you so happy?” Leng Shaoting asked with curiosity .

Gu Ning then realized she shouldn’t have shown her excitement, but she didn’t panic . “Um, oh, I just saw two fish fighting in the water!”

“Two fish were fighting?” Leng Shaoting was surprised .



Although Gu Ning found the antiques, she couldn’t get them right now, especially when Leng Shaoting was here . Therefore, she planned to come to the capital by herself the next time .

Gu Ning wasn’t in a hurry, because she didn’t think that others would be able to find the wooden box . Otherwise, the wooden box wouldn’t have been hidden in the water for hundreds of years .

After walking around the park for an hour, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting went back to siheyuan and then drove to antique street .
