The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 771: Chapter 772 Auction

This means that Su Changfeng is definitely facing a particularly big problem now.

Otherwise, given Su Changfeng’s personality, there’s no way he wouldn’t have reacted after receiving the news and still hasn’t returned, right?

”It’s nothing,” Yue Qingshan finally said.

”You say it’s nothing? Since you returned to M Country, you often sit there lost in thought, and your mom and I have wondered if you might have someone you like?” Yue Weilong asked.

Yue Qingshan, at this time, indeed needs love to nourish her. However, when faced with countless admirers who like her, Yue Qingshan has never given them a second glance.

This means there is only one possibility, which is that Yue Qingshan already has someone she likes, which is why she treats those pursuers like this.

Hearing Yue Weilong’s words, Yue Qingshan’s face clearly showed a hint of panic. Her liking for Su Changfeng is deeply concealed; she doesn’t dare to let Yue Weilong know because Su Changfeng is already married with children, and she’s afraid Yue Weilong would blame her if he found out.

”No way, how could there be a guy I’d look up to, Dad? If you’re really that bored, why don’t you go and fish? Don’t you love fishing?” Yue Qingshan said.

”Dad has been through this, you know,” Yue Weilong said with some emotion, sitting next to Yue Qingshan. ”I also had this situation before. Now, thinking back, when I first liked your mom, I couldn’t eat or sleep. If I couldn’t meet her, I’d just sit and think about her. But just thinking doesn’t change anything; you have to take action. If I hadn’t made the first move back then, there wouldn’t have been you.”

”Dad, I don’t want to hear about your love story with Mom right now. Please stop flaunting your love in front of me, okay?” Yue Qingshan said with a face full of helplessness.

Being single and forced to ’eat dog food,’ especially from your own parents, is unbearable, and Yue Qingshan finds it even harder to accept.

”Alright, alright, we won’t flaunt, happy now? There’s going to be an auction the day after tomorrow. If you’re free, you can come along and have a look. I heard that a mysterious figure, who is quite a big deal, might attend,” Yue Weilong said.

Yue Qingshan shook her head disinterestedly. In her eyes, such auctions are meaningless, just a show for some people to flaunt their wealth, much less the so-called big shot, who she couldn’t care less about.

Her entire mind is focused on Su Changfeng now, and she practically has no interest in any man other than him.

”Just so you know, make sure you dress nicely. What if that big shot takes an interest in you?” Yue Weilong reminded her.

Yue Qingshan muttered to herself that it’s impossible. No matter what kind of big shot it is, it doesn’t matter to her; she’s not going to be interested in that person.

In her heart, Yue Qingshan knew she was obsessed with Su Changfeng, and it was wrong from the start.

Even knowing that it was wrong, Yue Qingshan was still determined to keep being wrong without any thought of changing it, even though it was destined from the start that nothing could come of it. Yet, she still wanted to find an opportunity to try.

On the day of the auction, with nothing better to do, Yue Qingshan ended up attending. However, she dressed very plainly, wearing a baseball cap on her head, looking indistinguishable from an ordinary girl.

Even in a crowd, she wouldn’t catch any extra attention, especially with those glasses covering her stunning beauty.

”Qingshan, why did you come dressed like that?” As soon as Yue Qingshan’s mother, Murong Xue, saw her, her expression immediately changed, filled with blame.

”Mom, it’s perfectly normal for me to dress like this, okay?” Yue Qingshan didn’t see anything wrong with it. In fact, she felt particularly at ease, as this way she wouldn’t be stared at with lustful eyes by a bunch of men.

Murong Xue turned to look at Yue Weilong and said, ”Didn’t you tell our daughter that there’s going to be a mysterious big shot at this auction?”

Yue Weilong smiled bitterly. He had explained it clearly before, but Yue Qingshan intentionally did the opposite.

”She’s your precious daughter; don’t you know her temperament? If I hadn’t told her to dress up, she’d probably be wearing her regular clothes, not even this outfit,” Yue Weilong said helplessly.

It’s partly because of Yue Weilong’s specific instructions that Yue Qingshan came dressed like this to the auction. Whatever you tell her to do, she’ll do the opposite.

Murong Xue sighed helplessly and said, ”My dear daughter, do you know how many women are here today just for that mysterious big shot? Look at those women, putting so much effort into their appearances; in their hearts, they’re all hoping to catch his eye. Look at yourself, you’re far more beautiful than they are; why can’t you try to make your mom proud?”

”Mom~” Yue Qingshan affectionately linked arms with Murong Xue and said, ”That person is a big shot; he has nothing to do with me, right? Plus, our Zhou Family doesn’t need to cling to those elites anymore, do we?”

Now with the collaboration with the Ye Family, the Zhou Family indeed doesn’t need to go out of their way to please others. However, this mysterious figure is no ordinary person, and there are even rumors that his presence might cause upheaval in the China Town of M Country.

That made it impossible for Murong Xue to not take it seriously, but she also knew Yue Qingshan’s nature, and getting her to change her mind now was probably impossible.

”Oh, you, you, what should Mom say to you? Now that you’re older, you need to think about your future, don’t you?” Murong Xue said with a face of helplessness.

When this topic was mentioned, Yue Qingshan quickly shifted to another topic, saying, ”Mom, the auction is about to begin; let’s not talk about these unpleasant things. If there’s something you like later, just tell me, and I’ll bid for it and give it to you.”
