A few minutes later, Wang Xiaoxue got out of the car. Su Yan did not look at the contract and directly signed it. She completely believed in Wang Xiaoxue’s ability.
…
Downstairs Dazzle Culture Investment Company, Lan Jian sat in the car and waited until his whole mouth was dry. For the whole day, he did not even go to the bathroom once just to meet Summer. However, he waited until the sky was already dark but he did not see Summer come out.
Seeing that the Dazzle Culture employees had already left work, Lan Jian did not wait any longer. He drove straight to Jiashide Auction House. He felt that his young heart was very hurt and he needed Wei Zhou to comfort him.
…
Shijiade Auction House.
Wei Zhou had just reached the door when Lan Jian ran over: “Zhouzhou, let me hug you. I’m sad but I won’t say it…”
Wei Zhou glanced at him and said with disdain: “Why are you here instead of waiting for Summer?”
“Don’t mention it. I’ve been waiting at Dazzle Culture’s door for an entire day. Other than your ex-wife, I haven’t seen a single soul,” Lan Jian said bitterly.
Wei Zhou raised his eyebrows: “Do you know what Summer looks like?”
“Of course not! It’s precisely because I want to get to know Summer, so I waited at Dazzle Culture Building for an entire day.” Lan Jian replied.
Wei Zhou stopped and looked at Lan Jian as if he was an idiot: “If you don’t know what she looks like, how can you tell who is Summer and who isn’t Summer?”
As soon as he said this, Liang Rong, who was beside him, immediately laughed out loud. However, when she saw Wei Zhou’s cold eyes, she immediately held her laughter back.
Lan Jian’s little face turned red. He slapped his thigh and said: “F*ck! I knew there was something wrong. It turns out that I’m an idiot. I wasted a day there for nothing.”
Seeing that he had finally reacted, Wei Zhou ignored him and continued to walk into the auction house. Lan Jian caught up and said: “But I did meet your ex-wife. I even chatted with her a little. She even told me that Summer is a very beautiful woman. With me being so charming and handsome… Hey, don’t leave. Wait for me to finish…”
Su Yan had been in the auction venue for almost ten minutes. She was the only one who came today. Tang Yitong was supposed to come too, but the company changed her schedule at the last minute. She was in the studio right now, shooting an advertisement.
She was sitting at the back of the aisle, so when Wei Zhou and Lan Jian came in, she immediately saw them. Wei Zhou also saw her.
Shijiade Auction House operated on an invitation system. Those who could come here were all people of certain status. Moreover, there was a strict limit on the number of people in each auction, so the entire auction venue looked very empty and deserted.
The two of them looked at each other. Neither of them had any intention of greeting the other. In the end, Wei Zhou walked toward the VIP room on the second floor with a cold expression.
Su Yan raised her eyebrows, she took out her phone and sent a message to Tang Yitong: “If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have come. This auction must be poisonous. Not only did the blockhead come, but his crush and that retarded sister also came. It seems that this world is really too small.”
Wei Shani and Guan Yutong came in hand in hand. They were out at sea for a day and had only just gotten off the boat when they came here. Originally, the two of them did not have an invitation card. It was Guan Yutong who begged Jiang Ruoruo who then thought of a way to get them two tickets.
The two of them chatted and laughed. No one knew if they had seen Su Yan but they went straight to the second floor. Wei Shani was purely there to watch the show. Guan Yutong on the other hand thought of a way to come after hearing that Wei Zhou would be there.
At seven o’clock in the evening, the auction began.
Unlike most people, Su Yan came today with only one goal, which was to spend money. This was because she had her eyes on a violin. This violin was very old. It was the last violin made by a violin maker in the western world three hundred years ago.
This violin was called “Favorite”. It was made by the Master for his wife who was terminally ill. It was said that in order to make the most perfect violin in the world, the master spent six years. Three years gathering materials, one year to draw the blueprints, one year to make it, and one year to tune the violin.
What made people feel sorry was that once the violin was completely made, it was also the moment the Master’s wife died.. Since then, the master had never made a violin again.
