His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

Yang Chifeng could see everything way more clearly than Yang Sitong. Indeed, this price tussle in a fit of anger might not cost that much money, but it would cause the Yang Family to have a reputation of having more sense than money in their circle.

THAT would be the true loss of the Yang Family’s face.

Because he was some distance away from Yang Sitong, he naturally could not scold her harshly with a loud voice. He could only look at Su Ya, who instantly understood what she had to do.

She spoke to Yang Sitong with a voice level that only the two of them could hear and whispered, “Do you think that even if you win the bid for the earrings, that will show the world that your fiancée is still yours? Sitong, don’t you think that this is childish?”

“Is it?” Yang Sitong did not feel that way at all.

“Haven’t you always wondered why Lu Yanchen doesn’t fancy you? It’s because you’re not magnanimous enough… Which man doesn’t like to play around outside? If you really want to marry him, you must not cause him to lose face at this moment. And even if you were to marry him in the future, you must do everything according to his liking.”

Hearing Su Ya describe all these analogies about how a woman should behave, Yang Sitong was merely scoffing in her heart. She felt that Su Ya was just speaking from a bystander’s point of view. If her elder brother were to get a woman outside, she would be the first to flip and want that woman dead!

Just as they were discussing about it, the auctioneer had already knocked down on his hammer. “… 5,000,000 going thrice! Congratulations to that lady!”

Yang Sitong went maniacal.

This time around, she was even hating Su Ya and Yang Chifeng, hating them for not even being willing to part with that small sum of money!

The fact that the Yangs were where they were today was all thanks to the news of her being engaged in marriage with Lu Yanchen! And yet, they ignored her dignity and pride all for the sake of that little bit of money!

She blamed and hated them.

She had determined with extreme certainty that everyone was going against her! Because of that, she put on a black face for the remainder of the event.

After the auction came the buffet-style dinner, where she kept her distance from even Su Ya and Yang Chifeng.

Su Ya looked at Yang Chifeng exasperatedly. “She’s most likely blaming me for it.”

“Ignore her!”

Yang Chifeng patted Su Ya on the head, looking to really dote on her. However, when she was not paying attention, his gaze landed onto Shi Guang, who was engaged in conversation with Lu Yanchen right now.

Shen Chunlin walked toward Lu Yanchen and Shi Guang, and there were a number of people who crowded over to greet them.

Instantly, the men and the women separated into their own genders for conversation.

Mrs. Shen seemed as though she was really interested in Shi Guang, as she kept looking for her to chat with. On the other side, Shen Chunlin suddenly said to Lu Yanchen in a softer voice, “So, the reason why you sought out information about that ‘Time’ painting from me was all because of her!”

Even though he kept his voice at a soft volume, Shi Guang had managed to hear it.

She froze a bit momentarily.

So, he had already known that the ‘Time’ painting was going to be put up for auction today, and hence, he brought her here. Even though she did not manage to bid down ‘Time’ today, she felt that she should still thank Lu Yanchen for it.

Yet another debt of gratitude… The number of things she seemed to be owing this ex-boyfriend of hers seemed to be mounting up. Suddenly, she felt a little afraid… afraid that she might never be able to pay it all off.

Mrs. Shen had heard that as well as she smiled out faintly, “Seems like you must really like that painting, Shi Guang. It’s a pity…”

Shi Guang smiled in reciprocation, “I had initially really liked that painting, and had wanted to bid it down… But, since the other party seemed intent on getting it, I thought that it was better for me to give it up. After all, a gentleman does not steal from the interests of others.”

“This is not called stealing of interests, alright? It’s called trying one’s best.” A soft, gentle voice drifted over beside their ears.

Shi Guang did not even have to turn her head to know who the person speaking was–Yang Sitong!

She was mocking Shi Guang for not having enough money to afford that painting!

Shi Guang turned around and looked at her while smiling, “That’s why I returned the favor to you properly in reciprocation. Otherwise, I would really have been letting down on your ‘kindness’!”
