The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 384: Chapter 385 Attending the Auction

Many people were watching the two of them, some with confusion, while some men had a lustful expression, but in Tang Qiulu’s eyes, it was nothing.

The confusion was due to not knowing them, and as for those lustful looks, Tang Qiulu was already used to it. After all, she was the number one beauty in Jiang City, and countless people coveted her looks every day.

”Where are we going?” Tang Qiulu asked.

”You’ll find out soon,” was the reply.

Qin Feifei watched the backs of Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu and couldn’t help but ask, ”Where are they going?”

Sun Chen also frowned, wondering the same thing. Guests sitting in zone 4 were not being attended by staff, yet Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu were, which meant their seating was higher than zone 4!

”That guy is really lucky, this time the $1 million was spent in vain,” Sun Chen said through gritted teeth.

Seated in zone 5, both Li Chen and the lady boss were focused on Su Changfeng, realizing they wouldn’t be seated in zone 5, which made Li Chen and the lady boss curious about where they would sit.

”Where do you think they’ll sit?” the lady boss asked Li Chen.

”If he’s really aiming to get that ’Eternal,’ there’s an eighty percent chance they’ll be in the top VIP area,” Li Chen replied a bit excitedly.

Based on his earlier judgment, Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu could indeed sit in the top VIP area, although the lady boss had been skeptical all along about Su Changfeng’s ability to win the ’Eternal’.

Because Li Chen had told her the value of Tang Qiulu’s company, if Su Changfeng used Tang Qiulu’s money to boost his own reputation, $2 million wasn’t much, but she couldn’t afford over $100 million.

”Who are these people? I’ve never seen them, yet they can sit in the top VIP area!”

”Unless your assets exceed $1 billion, you have no right to sit there. Is this young man a super rich second generation?”

”To be favored by the auction so much, it seems like he’s planning to spend a fortune to win a smile from the beauty, which makes things interesting because Jia Siqi is also particularly interested in the ’Eternal’.”

Jia Siqi is a well-known rich second generation from Heaven Island and one of the wealthiest there. His family controls roughly 30% of the Heaven Island industry, with astonishing financial power, and he has long declared his intent to own the ’Eternal,’ thus warning others not to compete with him.

”They’re... they’re sitting in the top VIP area.” Seeing Su Changfeng seated made Sun Chen tremble with anger.

He spent $1 million to get a position in zone 4, and now he felt like a clown before the top VIP, getting no benefits despite spending money, leaving only Heaven knows what Sun Chen felt inside.

”How can that woman be so rich?” Qin Feifei said bitterly, seeing the $1 billion gap she could never cross, now the disparity between the two was clear.

Most of Sun Chen’s attention was on Su Changfeng because he knew he couldn’t compare with Tang Qiulu and hoped to find some solace in focusing on Su Changfeng.

”It’s just that the man is quite lucky, and it seems the heavens turned a blind eye,” Sun Chen said viciously.

On the other hand, the expressions of the lady boss and Li Chen varied, as Li Chen had predicted this outcome, yet the lady boss’s lingering hope now completely vanished.

”It seems your guess was right, Tang Qiulu, the group chairman, isn’t the main figure, the main figure is Su Changfeng,” the lady boss said with emotion.

”We’ll soon find out who the main figure really is,” Li Chen said.

Even though he guessed right, he couldn’t be certain of what would happen next, as sitting in the top VIP area didn’t necessarily cost money, unless Su Changfeng truly won the ’Eternal’.

Once seated, Tang Qiulu was a bit puzzled because while many were seated elsewhere, it was just her and Su Changfeng here.

”Why aren’t others sitting here?” Tang Qiulu asked.

”Take a look at those people’s expressions now,” Su Changfeng did not answer Tang Qiulu’s question directly.

Though Tang Qiulu didn’t understand Su Changfeng’s meaning, she still observed the surroundings as he said. Now, Tang Qiulu saw the faces of those initially confused people became astonished, and those who had ogled her were now cautious, with a hint of fear.

”What’s up with these people...?” Tang Qiulu was bewildered.

”This place is exclusive for top VIPs, only those with $1 billion or more can sit here. Since those people haven’t met us, they’ll surely be shocked,” Su Changfeng explained with a smile.

$1 billion is needed to sit here!

Tang Qiulu’s gaze became similar to those others. Her current net worth clearly didn’t qualify, so her ability to sit here was due to Su Changfeng!

$1 billion, even the entire Shen Family couldn’t match up, but he...

Tang Qiulu quickly adjusted her breathing to calm herself.

”Actually, I’m quite wealthy,” Su Changfeng said with a smile.

Tang Qiulu nodded, having guessed Su Changfeng’s wealth when he bought that Mountain Villa, but she hadn’t realized he was this rich.

The auction had begun, and many items caused fierce bidding, but Su Changfeng wasn’t interested. He was here for the necklace named ’Eternal’, so he wouldn’t bid until the necklace appeared.

This time, Sun Chen was particularly miserable. Having paid a $1 million deposit, he was unwilling to let it go to waste, desperately hoping to win something, so at least he wouldn’t lose too much.

But based on the current situation, any item was not less than $3 million, making it impossible for Sun Chen to bid, leaving him anxious as if his pants were on fire.

Although items in the auction had some value, that was only to those who liked collecting them.

But in Sun Chen’s eyes, someone who favored appearances, winning these items would be worthless, and reselling them would undoubtedly bring a loss, as most auctioned items weren’t worth their winning price, meaning whether Sun Chen bid or not, he’d incur considerable losses.

Sun Chen regretted so much he wanted to cry, but he blamed Su Changfeng even more, believing without him, he wouldn’t have needed to spend $1 million for face.

”Dear, are we just going to lose $1 million like this?” Qin Feifei said angrily. That’s $1 million, enough for many bags and expensive makeup!
