Chapter 749: Jiang Xuecheng’s Thoughts
Ever since she was a child, Su Wan had been educated by the good people. She had seen the true, the good, and the beautiful.
Therefore, she had never thought that she would one day lie in a cage to be displayed in front of people.
She was even being sold at a marked price.
Su Wan felt extremely disgusted. She wanted to resist, but not only was her body bound by the ribbon, she had also been given a needle by Aunt He that made her weak. It was difficult for Su Wan to even move.
Although she could not see clearly, Su Wan knew very clearly that there were countless pairs of eyes staring at her on the empty auction stage.
Perhaps there were men and women, old and young, filled with malice and even l.u.s.t.
Su Wan felt even more disgusted. She had the urge to vomit.
A cold glint flashed across her clear almond-shaped eyes. Su Wan bit the corner of her lips, and the taste of rust seeped out from the corner of her lips.
If she was really bought back by someone, she would make that person lose all his descendants and never be a man again!
It was very difficult for Su Wan to move her body. Su Wan had no choice but to subconsciously lean her head against the ground, trying her best to cover her face.
The spectators at the auction naturally noticed Su Wan’s actions and were greatly displeased.
Originally, they could only see a small side of Su Wan’s face. They could only see half of her delicate chin and a little bit of cherry-colored lips.
Other than that, they could not see anything clearly.
Now that Su Wan was burying her head in the ground, it was even more impossible to see what her face looked like.
The feeling of not being able to see her face was too heart-wrenching!
It was as if thousands of little bugs were crawling in their hearts, an itch that could not be removed.
The dazzling light shone on Su Wan’s body, making the modified Cheongsam even more intense.
Su Wan’s curves were beautiful, and her slender waist was so delicate that it could not be held. Her porcelain-white slender legs were faintly discernible under the slit-open Cheongsam, and it was more like a kind of silent bewitchment…
Her body was bound, and she was lying in this golden cage. Wasn’t she just like a canary whose wings had been torn?
They hadn’t seen her face yet, but the guests present were all thirsty.
These people were either rich or n.o.ble. In private, they had raised countless slaves for their own amus.e.m.e.nt. But when they saw the girl in the cage, they suddenly had a feeling that they were determined to get her.
This beautiful canary had to be kept in the bag. It couldn’t be taken away by others!
…
After a long time, the host still had no intention of letting Su Wan show her face. Finally, there was a commotion all around.
A middle-aged man sitting in the VIP seats was the first to lose his patience. He rushed to the speaker not far away and shouted.
“Host, our patience is not that good! If you want to auction, then auction. What’s the point of being mysterious!”
Because someone had taken the lead to express his dissatisfaction, before he finished his sentence, the entire venue was like a pot of boiling water. Complaints could be heard everywhere.
“That’s right, that’s right!”
…
In an extremely secretive private room of this auction, there were two men inside, one sitting and one standing.
It was very obvious that these two men had the status of a superior and a subordinate.
The man who was standing looked to be in his thirties or forties. He lowered his eyebrows respectfully, afraid that he would accidentally anger his master.
On the long velvet sofa, a man old enough to be his son sat quietly.
He held a gla.s.s of red wine between his slender fingers. Even if he didn’t speak, he had an innate arrogance.
This young man wore a simple black s.h.i.+rt and black pants. When he wore them, people were scared and didn’t dare to look at him.
As time pa.s.sed, the atmosphere became more and more oppressive.
Through the one-way perspective gla.s.s, the middle-aged man glanced at the scene on the auction stage with some worry.
At this moment, he really could not understand his master’s thoughts.
The girl lying on the stage was clearly Miss Su. His Highness was clearly here to save Miss Su, but why was he sitting there quietly, even holding a gla.s.s of red wine in his hand and tasting it?
That’s right, the people in this box were Jiang Xuecheng and Director Fan.
The outside was boiling, but this neither big nor small box was extremely silent, pressing down on people’s hearts!
Director Fan really couldn’t stand this kind of atmosphere. He coughed lightly, trying to remind Jiang Xuecheng of today’s important matter.
“Your Highness, the one on the stage… should be Miss Su, don’t you need…”
Before Director Fan could finish speaking, he suddenly saw the man in front of him stand up and give him a stern glance.
“Wait a little longer.”
Wait?
Until when?
Director Fan was startled. He saw the newly promoted Emperor of the G.o.d’s Palace sit back down again. His posture was dignified, as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Xuecheng’s thin lips pursed slightly. A pair of phoenix-like eyes as clear as gla.s.s swept across the scene on the stage.
Even though he could not see her face, Jiang Xuecheng knew very well that she was Su Wan.
He had recognized Su Wan from the moment the black cloth was lifted.
However…
Jiang Xuecheng tightened his grip on the red wine and his knuckles began to turn white.
He hoped to teach Su Wan a lesson. Compared to leaving him, Su Wan was not living a good life, was she?
He was clearly willing to give everything to make Su Wan happy, but why did Su Wan want to leave him?
Was that child of unknown origin really that important?
…
The disgruntled voices around increased.
The host who was standing on the same platform as Su Wan could obviously feel the customers’ agitation. She smiled slightly, but she was not anxious in her heart.
Only when the customers’ curiosity was at its peak would she consider taking the next step.
The beautiful female host slowly raised her hand, signaling for everyone to be quiet.
She raised her eyebrows and pointed her slender fingers at Su Wan, attracting everyone’s attention to Su Wan.
“Everyone, please be patient. Such an exquisite ‘gift,’ don’t tell me that everyone doesn’t even have the patience to wait for it to be opened?”
As the host spoke, she suddenly covered her mouth and smiled charmingly. She looked around at everyone present and spoke softly.
“Next, let’s play a little game. Let’s let one of the men present personally open the cage and let everyone see the beauty’s face.”
This heavy bomb that was suddenly thrown out instantly made all the men present perk up.
“Then what are the rules of the game? Take a guess–”
The female host deliberately dragged out her last syllable, but she refused to say the so-called rules of the game, which made everyone’s heart jump to their throats.
“Hurry up and say it!”
“Don’t play charades!”
After all, they could go on stage personally and get close to the girl who was locked in the cage. The hearts of everyone present jumped, hoping that the G.o.d of luck would favor them.
When the female host heard those impatient words, she was very satisfied with the effect that she had created, and the smile on her face became even more enthusiastic.
“Let the buyer who had the highest bid in the previous auction go on stage and personally reveal the secret for everyone!”
