Chapter Forty-Six: I Lost a Son
The huge teardrop-shaped banquet hall had its lights turned off and was all focused on the auction table, except for the VIP seats, which were close to the center, and some light was faintly seeping out.
I followed the faint light, approached with steps, and finally found the location of Liang Junchen.
He sat up straight, as if he heard my footsteps, and looked up at me before asking, "Why have you been there for so long?"
I smiled, without any flaws: "I met an acquaintance and talked a little more." ”
Liang Junchen didn't doubt it, nodded and whispered in my ear: "I just had a pair of very beautiful earrings, I think they are very suitable for you, I will take pictures and give them to you to make jewelry, and I am not sure if you will like it." ”
I was still polite to him and said, "I have a lot of this kind of jewelry, you don't have to break the bank for me." ”
But as soon as I said this, I regretted it, and I woke up and could only bite my lip and bow my head.
Now it's different from the past, maybe all the jewelry I used to have been burned or donated by Su Yunan, where will I have it.
His eyes implied deep meaning, seeing my embarrassment, but in order to debunk it, he just smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, there will be better later." ”
I finally calmed down, but I was nervous because of Su Yunan's subsequent figure, but he didn't look at me again.
I know him, and if I say no more, there will be no room for redemption.
All his teasing and so-called retention of me is out of his unwillingness, I have never been with another man, so he hates me for betraying, hates me for leaving, hates him for not being able to control me.
My chaotic mind has been unconsciously chasing to a table away from us with the faint light, and when I arrived at Deng Qing, she saw Su Yunan take a seat, took his hand, and said something in his ear affectionately.
He was smiling, calm and beautiful, and even from so far away, I saw his tenderness that had never belonged to me.
I felt a dull ache in my heart out of nowhere, and I quickly shifted my gaze to the front desk and looked at the auctioneer on the stage.
The auctioneer began to auction off the next item, which was sent to Mrs. Li two days before the dinner, usually jewelry, art, antiques, and the like.
The next auction is a piece of jade, I have some interest, in fact, it's not that I like it, it's my mother who likes this thing, in the past, Su's father would give my mother a lot, so there are many kinds in the family, I played with it when I was a child.
Liang Junchen saw that I was a little interested, and couldn't help but turn his eyes to the jade, and he whispered in my ear: "Like it?"
I retracted my gaze, looked at Liang Junchen, and chuckled: "It's okay, it looks very good, and the texture is very transparent." ”
He nodded, and after the auctioneer set a starting price of 200,000, he immediately held up the sign, which attracted the attention of many people.
I glanced at him and said, "There should be a lot of people who like this." ”
I was right, and then as more and more people doubled, the price was suddenly raised to a million.
The price soared to this position, a small number of businessmen put down the brand, these businessmen are not wronged, the charity party is a way to show off wealth, but the value of the bid can not exceed its actual value too much, this truth is understood by everyone.
Liang Junchen thought for a while and raised his hand: "One million and two million." ”
His gesture attracted more attention, many of them looking at us, and some of them were looking at my face and wondering if it was given to me.
I know I'm already in the spotlight at today's charity gala.
The auctioneer was a little excited, and he said, "It's already 1.2 million, is there any more price increase?"
The businessmen looked at each other, as if they were a little hesitant, but in fact, I was a little weak, and I also held my breath and looked at the venue.
In fact, I hope that someone will take this plate, it's not that I'm narcissistic, Liang Junchen is so high-profile, this piece of jade must be given to me, he wants to give this piece of jade to me, I don't accept it, I accept it, I owe him more favors, which is also what I don't want.
When the auctioneer was about to shout for the first time and the second time, to finalize the price, Su Yunan raised his hand and said, "Two million." ”
My heart pounded.
I remember that Su Yunan also collected jade in the past, in fact, rich people like them love to get some antiques or precious things to play at home, and they don't really like it much, but it's just a kind of thing that reveals their identity.
The people at the venue whispered more or less, Su Yunan had never bid before, and he raised the card and directly marked the price, I glanced at him sideways, and he slowly put down the bidding card, calmly.
I don't know if I'm too careful, I always feel that the people behind me are talking about my name Su Zai'an, and about the former brother and sister relationship between me and Su Yunan.
The auctioneer saw that Su Yunan was so generous as soon as he made a move, and his face turned red: "Two million! This gentleman has come out with two million?
I glanced at Liang Junchen and saw that he still wanted to raise the card, so I pressed his hand slightly: "Forget it, there are many more such things, let's wait for the next one." ”
Liang Junchen smiled at me, meaning to reassure me, and continued to raise the card to add a million.
The businessmen and celebrities at the venue gradually quieted down, waiting for this good show.
Tonight is all talking, Liang Junchen, the son of the Liang Group, tonight's female companion and Su Yunan's deceased sister look quite similar, Liang Junchen and Su Yunan were still business rivals in the past, this report is big news, so is Su Yunan's high price tonight related to missing his deceased sister?
This piece of jade is secondary, and shrewd people naturally understand that sitting and watching the play is mainly to see the depth of the doorway.
Su Yunan once again raised the card and said directly: "Five million." ”
The two chased very closely, and the auctioneer raised the hammer this time, but he was overtaken by another person at a critical moment, and he was also made ups and downs, full of excitement.
Mr. Liang and Mr. Su must have wanted to give it to their female companions, too, this jade is really a good product, and the ladies around you must love it very much. ”
I glanced at Deng Qing and saw that she seemed to be very nervous, so I couldn't help but press down Liang Junchen's arm again: "Su Yunan, this person will not stop until he achieves his goal when he does anything, don't fight with him, it's not worth it." ”
Liang Junchen seemed to hesitate, and I added a little more force: "I don't like that jade very much, let's replace it with another one, there are still many good things behind." ”
Seeing me so persuasive, Liang Junchen looked at me a few times, laughed a few times, and seemed to see my thoughts: "You don't want him to break the bank?"
A playful tone.
I chuckled and said, "No, I'm afraid you'll break the bank." ”
Liang Junchen didn't raise his hand again, and it was at this moment that the auctioneer finalized.
The jade is owned by Su Yunan.
Five million is really not a small amount of money, and Su Yunan is really willing to spend money, I don't know if it is with the heart of competing with Liang Junchen, or if he really wants to give it to Deng Qing.
It is understandable to say that it is the latter, after all, he took a statue of Guanyin for Deng Qing before.
I was relieved that Liang Junchen didn't break the bill for me, but as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, Su Yunan suddenly turned his head, not big or small, and said in a voice that could be heard by the entire silent venue: "I will give this piece of jade to Miss Chu Xin." ”
My face turned a little pale for a moment, and what I had thought about in my mind just now had really happened.
Even Deng Qing finally turned her gaze to me, she may have heard the rumors of my appearance at today's venue, but when she really looked at my face, her pupils still widened violently, and she looked frightened.
I raised my face, just in time to meet their eyes, I was a little scared in my heart, Liang Junchen took my hand and squeezed it, reassuring me.
The heart is beating nonstop.
The whispering became louder again, Su Yunan had done a good job in the outside world before, and he was sad enough for my departure, and it was normal for them to talk about Su Yunan's motives.
"Have you met him?" Liang Junchen's smiling tone came.
I hesitated a little and said, "I just bumped into it." ”
Liang Junchen glanced at me and said, "Don't waver, think about how he tortured you in the past." ”
In fact, there is no need for Liang Junchen to say, I will not waver, this road has already begun, and even the cruel words have been left behind, how can there be any reason to turn back?
I laughed and said, "I won't accept the jade, I only listen to Mr. Liang's words now, and accept Mr. Liang's things." ”
I know this is a good way for me to show my loyalty, and it is also a good way to make Liang Junchen feel at ease with me, Liang Junchen squeezed my hand tighter, his hand is much more calloused than Su Yunan's, a little rough, but the touch is not bad, a little itchy.
But after that, I couldn't listen to anything auctioned, and my palms were always in a cold state, Liang Junchen Xu took another picture for me in order to comfort me, and the price was even more terrifying, six million.
It happened to be one million more than Su Yunan's jade.
I don't know if he did it on purpose, otherwise how could there be such a coincidence?
At the end of the auction, I was a little restless, and as soon as I went out with Liang Junchen in my arms, I bumped into Su Yunan and Deng Qing, who went out at the same time.
"Mr. Liang, where you appear, there is always a big drama. Su Yunan took the lead, smiling with his eyebrows and eyes, Deng Qing held Su Yunan tightly, and almost stared at me after seeing my face.
And I didn't panic and met her eyes and smiled quietly.
"It's just that the young lady next to Mr. Liang seems to look familiar, and I heard that it is Miss Chu Xin, who has never returned abroad, so I gave the jade to Miss Chu as a meeting gift, which can be regarded as a New Year's greeting to Mr. Liang, okay?" Su Yunan stared at me and held Liang Junchen's hand, his eyes were ambiguous, and he did not leave for a long time.
His gaze was bold and insolent, looking at me from head to end, without the slightest regard for me as Leung Kwan Chen's female companion, as if it were his personal belongings.
Deng Qing seemed to be very uneasy, staring at me all the time, trying her best to restrain something, and finally couldn't stand Su Yunan's eyes anymore, and interjected: "Xiao An didn't die before, why didn't he come home if he didn't die? What the hell is going on?"
Deng Qing was not surprised when she saw Su Yunan looking at me, thinking that she was the only one who was kept in the dark.
She was nervous.
"It's not your Xiao An, didn't you just say it? It's Miss Chu of the original Chu Group, who happens to be similar to your former Xiao An's face. Liang Junchen opened his mouth to defend me.
"Mrs. Sue. I said softly.
Deng Qing didn't believe it either, or she didn't believe it at all, the four of us may all know the same, but no one broke it.
If it is said that it is just the same appearance, it can be said that it is a face-bump, but the voice is the same, then Su Zai'an is not dead.
But it doesn't matter if you're dead or not, the new ID card is a new person, Liang Junchen's person, she Deng Qing has nothing to do with me.
Deng Qing's hands trembled a little, this is also something I can understand, after all, she deliberately didn't save me that day, her eyes were full of anger, presumably she and Su Yunan would not be calm tonight.
"Mr. Su is so generous today, but he spends a lot of money just to please my girlfriend, don't let the media expose it and think that Mr. Su has ulterior motives. Liang Junchen took my hand and rubbed it a few times, with a hint of smile and provocation in his eyebrows.
I was a little uncomfortable by him, but I endured it because of everyone's watchful eyes.
Su Yunan chuckled: "Mr. Liang still let go of Miss Chu's hand, I see Miss Chu's face is embarrassed, presumably it seems that the frostbite on her hand is not yet healed, I don't know if there is any rubbing medicine, if not, I can give you some, I have a lot of medicine for chilblains at home." ”
Liang Junchen paused, and slowly let go of my hand, my hand may have been a little red by him, but after listening to Su Yunan's words, I was even more embarrassed.
He didn't say anything wrong, my hands were indeed frostbitten, and I rubbed a lot of hand cream before going out today, but I didn't want to be seen through by him at a glance.
I laughed far-fetched, put my hand away and said, "Mr. Su has good eyesight, but Mr. Liang also prepared a lot of ointment for me." ”
Su Yunan demolished Liang Junchentai everywhere tonight, and if he didn't give Liang Junchen any face, I must say something at this time.
Liang Junchen's face eased for a moment, and said to Su Yunan: "Anyway, Mr. Su really broke the bill tonight, such a luxurious handwriting, I have never seen Mr. Su have done anything similar before." ”
"It's not a matter of breaking the bank, and that's how charity auctions should be. Su Yunan stretched his voice, intriguing: "I lost a son unexpectedly, and now doing good deeds and accumulating virtue can be regarded as the best compensation for that child." ”
