Su Qianci gritted her teeth and eventually felt that she could not speak. Now to the outside world, she was a widow. Since three or four years ago, after Li Sicheng died, she had been raising two children and managing the Li Group. On Weibo and the major news platforms, the beauty and nobleness of Su Qianci had been highly praised. Although she did not particularly care about the fame, under her glamorous title and good character, there was the Li family.
Now she had a shared destiny with the Li family. How could she make something like that public? She could not afford it. Su Qianci’s face was grim and her heart sank. That person, did he calculate all this before he harassed her? If that was the case… Then there would definitely be a third, fourth, fifth time… Feeling annoyed, she sighed and walked back to the hall.
The auction site had entered a feverish stage. Li Jinnan perceived her absent-mindedness without saying anything. He made the final bid, giving rise to an uproar.
“Are you sure? Mr. Li?”
“Yes.”
Gu Du Ming County, the Li Group was bound to win it.
Su Qianci felt the noise around her was getting bigger and bigger, making her head hurt.
After a while, Li Jinnan said, “Hey?” Su Qianci looked up at him with a puzzled look. “We got it, but the price is a bit over budget.”
“How much?”
Li Jinnan directly showed her the price. Su Qianci glanced at it, which was five times the original price. Within her expectation.
Su Qianci nodded, but felt even more irritated. Her headache got worse as well. “It doesn’t matter. You can handle the rest. I am a little uncomfortable.”
“What’s wrong?” Li Jinnan frowned, wanting to touch her forehead, but felt it was not appropriate under the eyes of the public.
Because she was with Li Jinnan, Su Qianci did not worry about security issues. Therefore, Shuang Yu was not with her. It was a bit inconvenient now. Su Qianci saw his expression and smiled. “I am just a little annoyed. You should go to work first. Call me after you’re done. I will sit here for a while.”
Li Jinnan nodded. “Okay then.” He soon walked away, and the people at the venue slowly began to leave.
Su Qianci sat in her seat with her eyes half closed. Many people noticed her, but very few people dared to come and talk to her. The noble and glamorous President Su had quite a reputation. For many years, her youth and beauty had attracted many people’s attention, but she never spent time with ordinary men. In addition, a female bodyguard was always following her around. Although the female bodyguard was not here now, the young master of the Li family was not to be messed with. Although it was inconvenient for men to come forward and talk, women did not need to mind this.
Tang Qing came to her gracefully, bent down, and looked at her with concern. “President Su.”
Su Qianci’s eyes were almost closed and she did not notice the arrival of Tang Qing. Hearing that, she opened her eyes. However, she immediately saw a face comparable to a zombie, and was suddenly scared. The face was stiff and white as powder, but the lips were red and scary.
