The Crazy Son-In-Law

Chapter 56 Auction



Yao Cen didn’t know when she had offended Li Chunlian. Although she felt offended, this was not the right place to argue with her, so she didn’t say anything else.

She asked the doorman, “Can we go in now?”

The doorman handed the invitation to the two and then held out his hand, gesturing for them to enter. Then, they no longer had to endure Li Chunlian’s noise.

After a spacious stone road, they entered the hall of the auction.

In the center of that hall was a long row of buffet tables covered with fruits, pastries, drinks… just everything.

By now many people had gathered in the hall. Most of them were well-dressed. It was obvious that they all came from an affluent background. They were talking to each other in twos and threes.

Yao Cen’s beauty naturally attracted a large number of eyes, while more eyes fell on Xiao Shun beside her.

“So that’s her husband. He looks pretty good in that suit.”

“What a shame. He’s just a rubbish that lives off her, or it would have been a pretty good match.”

The vast majority of people here were meeting Yao Cen’s husband for the first time. They had been talking curiously.

When Yao Cen ran Tulip International, she had already met some of these people, and it was natural for her to talk to them.

Xiao Shun, on the other hand, wandered around absentmindedly.

He wanted to find something to eat and drink to pass the time. He had only one purpose for this trip, Starline Bio.

Since Yao Cen left Tulip International, although she seemed very calm, still she looked just listless and without energy.

He found a quieter corner with a glass of champagne and waited for the auction to begin.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted in the hall. Especially the young girls, they sounded very excited, as if they saw some super idol.

Immediately after that, he saw a well-dressed young man striding into the venue with princely manners.

“It’s really Sikong Xing!”

“I just heard that he came back from abroad. Gosh, I did not expect to meet him today.”

“He’s my knight, he’s my prince, oooh…”

A group of young girls whispered, while Xiao Shun listened clearly with his keen senses.

Not only those young girls, when those men saw Sikong Xing walk in, their eyes also lit up. Sikong Xing was indeed dazzling, and the whole hall seemed to have become brighter because of his arrival.

“I didn’t expect that the Sikong family would be here this year. In the past, those four families never participated in such auctions. This is interesting.”

“But if the Sikong family wants something, who would even dare to bid against him?”

“If they want something, we’ll let him have that.”

After he greeted everyone who had gone up to him with a smile, Sikong Xing slowly walked up to Yao Cen with a charming smile and softly said, “Yao Cen, it’s been a long time, and I’m back.”

Yao Cen looked up at him with a complicated look and smiled lightly, “Welcome back.”

She went to the same university with Sikong Xing, and they were the president and vice president of the student union, so everyone thought they were a couple.

Sikong Xing had also expressed his feelings for her more than once, only Yao Cen had no feelings for him.

Even though he was really good and he came from one of those four families, she couldn’t force herself.

After they graduated from college, Sikong Xing still didn’t give up. And after Yao Cen married Xiao Shun, he was finally disheartened and left the country.

“Can we talk alone?” Sikong Xing said again.

“If you want to say something you can say it here.” Yao Cen remained cool as ever.

“I came back this time just for you. I want to take you back.” Sikong Xing was very straightforward.

“I’m already married, and we’ve never been together. Take me back?” She frowned, not wanting to continue the conversation.

But Sikong Xing never stopped, “But I heard that you are not doing well.”

“I am.”

“You can’t fool me, and I’ve heard it all. You didn’t marry that trash willingly.”

“You’re still so self-righteous.” Yao Cen said with a faint smile.

“Your friend?” Suddenly, Xiao Shun walked up to Yao Cen from the side and asked.

“You’re Xiao Shun, right? Nice to meet you.”

Before Yao Cen could say anything, Sikong Xing gently extended his hand, while a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Shun reluctantly shook his hand. He had heard the conversation between the two of them just now.

“We went to the same college, and I’m her ex-boyfriend too. I heard that you are just a rubbish dependent on her. You are not good enough for Yao Cen, please give her back to me.”

Sikong Xing looked at Xiao Shun with a condescending look.

“Sikong Xing, what are you talking about?” Yao Cen frowned.

“Am I not right? You’ve been married for three years, but you don’t even let him touch your hand, obviously, you hate him. What is the point of such a marriage?”

Sikong Xing said aggressively.

At this time, Yao Cen suddenly felt a large warm and strong palm holding her hand. It was none other than Xiao Shun, and she looked at him with a complicated feeling.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t even try to break free, but just let him hold her like that.

“Do you want me to kiss her in front of you?” said Xiao Shun with a cold face, looking straight at Sikong Xing.

Yao Cen felt a momentary burst of heat on her face, her face subconsciously blushed.

Sikong Xing’s expression changed drastically, and he looked at Yao Cen desperately. He could not bear the pain when he thought about how the girl he loved so much was pinned underneath such a rubbish.

His fists were clenched, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. He almost wanted to kill this rubbish on the spot.

Just then a middle-aged man in a plaid suit with a moustache approached him and greeted him.

“Mr. Sikong.” Immediately, Sikong Xing changed to a smiling face and followed the man away.

Yao Cen pulled her hand out of Xiao Shun’s hand with a blushed face. Two red marks were left on her white hands. She stammered grumblingly.

“Why … why are you holding me so tightly? It hurts.”

Was this asshole kidding? Just now she had been trying so hard to hold back or she would have screamed.

“Oh, just a bit inexperienced. I will pay attention next time.”

Xiao Shun said in a serious manner.

“Are you angry?” Yao Cen asked carefully.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“No.”

“Sikong Xing and I went to the same college, and he did pursue me, but I didn’t agree…”

Yao Cen explained in a small voice.

“You don’t need to explain. I have such a beautiful wife, and those men were just like flies attracted to poop. If I have to be angry every time, I will need to worry about my health now,” Xiao Shun said.

At first, Yao Cen thought the man was complimenting her, but the second half seemed a little off?

She understood after a second and then frowned.

“Bastard, so I am just some piece of poop to you?”

At that, she reached out to his waist and gave him a good pinch. Xiao Shun just allowed her, standing there and smiling.
