Picking Up a Gorgeous CEO for a Wife

502: Chapter 0502: Raise the Curtain 502: Chapter 0502: Raise the Curtain Having looked around for a while, Wen Zihua’s heart sank to the bottom!

It seemed as if the female guests today had conspired not to give him any face!

Just when Wen Zihua was about to give up, his gaze finally met a response!

Moreover, the response came from a rather prominent female guest!

Wen Zihua remembered her—during the welcoming ceremony for the young generation of Luo City’s Ancient Martial World, he had been quite impressed by this girl, remembering her as Qu Xiaoting, the legitimate daughter of Luo City’s Qu Family!

Qu Xiaoting’s glance was like sending charcoal in snowy weather for Wen Zihua!

Wen Zihua smiled warmly and stood up to walk toward Qu Xiaoting.

Why did Qu Xiaoting respond to Wen Zihua?

Because she extremely disliked Su Ziyan and Qin Yu!

She was jealous that her beloved Gu Chen was completely besotted with Su Ziyan, blind to her virtues!

What made her even angrier was that Qin Yu had the audacity to disrupt Gu Chen’s birthday party!

Absolutely unforgivable!

If it weren’t for the high-class nature of the charity gala, she would have confronted Qin Yu sooner!

Having Wen Zihua to take the lead was also quite good!

In fact, Qu Xiaoting was a rare beauty herself, with large eyes, delicate features, and very fair skin, but her temper was quite foul due to her pampered upbringing.

Of course, Qu Xiaoting’s bad temper was selective; she did not lose her temper with those she valued.

For instance, Wen Zihua was someone she held in high regard.

Qu Xiaoting knew of the Wen Family’s power, even her beloved Gu Chen had to show great respect to Wen Zihua.

“Miss Qu, what a coincidence,” Wen Zihua greeted as he approached Qu Xiaoting.

“Indeed, it seems I and Mr.

Wen are quite fated!” Qu Xiaoting responded with a soft smile.

Perhaps because Qu Xiaoting’s goodwill was so precious, Wen Zihua suddenly found her quite attractive!

Smiling, he asked, “Miss Qu, would you mind joining me at the auction?”

“It would be my honor,” Qu Xiaoting replied with a polite smile.

“This way, please.” Wen Zihua took Qu Xiaoting’s arm, and although she was slightly startled, she did not resist and obediently followed Wen Zihua to his private box.

Qin Yu and Su Ziyan lost their interest in dancing and returned to their seats, quietly browsing through the evening’s auction catalog.

Qin Yu had no interest in the items listed in the auction catalog and closed his eyes in a dispirited way.

It wasn’t until he heard Ding Fan announce the start of the auction that Qin Yu finally opened his eyes.

As he focused his gaze, he saw that a solid wood table with an auction hammer had somehow appeared on the stage.

The previously empty dance floor had been arranged with many chairs, as it faced the stage and offered the best view for the auction.

“Ladies and gentlemen, today’s auction is a charity auction.

All proceeds will be donated to help children in the west who can’t afford education.

Please give generously!

Now, please take your seats!

First, may I invite Mr.

Mo, and Second Master Feng…”

As Ding Fan’s voice continued, the auction officially began, and notable guests called by name took their seats in the front row.

Logically, Qin Yu and Su Ziyan were not noteworthy enough to be in the front row.

However, Ding Fan soon called out the names of Qin Yu and Su Ziyan.

If it had been anyone else, sitting in the front row without the requisite status would have surely upset the others, but not for Qin Yu and Su Ziyan!

They had brought too much awe to everyone!
