Chapter 55 His heart felt empty.
Han Wei and Lu Yanzhi's side was in complete chaos.
In the end, Shi Nian only saw Lu Yanzhi pick up Han Wei and hurriedly head towards the villa.
Not only Shi Nian saw it, but everyone present saw it.
Fu Jinyan looked at Shi Nian with concern.
He wanted to say something, but there were reporters all around, so he could only shut up and shout into his phone at the people on the other end.
When the three members of the Huo family saw this scene, Huo Er curled his lip.
The beautiful woman rolled her eyes.
People reacted in different ways.
And think of it often.
She simply looked away.
It seemed as if the person who carried Han Wei inside wasn't her husband of many years, and that all of this had nothing to do with her.
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-"
The sound of a horn blared from the villa once again.
Then, the sound of propellers could be heard.
Shi Nian looked up and saw a helicopter overhead.
Fu Jinyan escorted Shi Nian toward the helicopter.
Shi Nian nodded and followed the security guard who had finally broken through the crowd into the villa.
The Fu Group's personnel, who had been stuck halfway, have arrived and cleared a path for the guests attending the banquet to leave.
The guests left in an orderly manner, and as security personnel maintained order, the number of people gradually decreased.
As Shi Nian stepped onto the rooftop staircase, she looked back one last time.
On the first floor, the crowd automatically parted. Han Wei had just woken up, and Lu Yanzhi was sitting beside her, talking to her with his head down.
His furrowed brows and slightly pursed lips revealed his concern for Han Wei.
"Let's go." Fu Jinyan glanced at Shi Nian and said softly.
Shi Nian lowered her eyes slightly, then turned around without looking back.
"Mmm," she replied.
Then, Shi Nian followed Fu Jinyan out of the passage.
Lu Yanzhi, who was in the lobby on the first floor, looked up as if he had something in mind, but all he saw was the empty entrance to the rooftop and a pitch-black night.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
The sound of the propeller reached him, and for some reason, his heart felt empty.
"Yanzhi, I'm sorry for making you worry." Han Wei said weakly beside him, "I was too anxious and arranged too many activities."
"sorry."
"But... I don't have much time left."
Lu Yanzhi frowned even more, feeling a pang of pity. He shook his head at Han Wei, indicating that it was alright.
On the other side, inside the helicopter.
Shi Nian looked down at the city below.
Taking off from the villa on the hillside, the helicopter flew over the congested mountain roads and headed towards the designated location on the low-altitude route applied for by the Fu family.
The traffic below was still congested, but it was clear that cars were already passing through the middle lane.
The wind from the propeller was quite strong, blowing Shi Nian's long hair up.
Shi Nian looked at the traffic below, not really knowing what she was thinking, just feeling a little tired.
The next moment, a suit jacket was draped over her shoulders.
The suit still carried the slight warmth of the other person and the faint scent of pine.
Shi Nian turned around and saw Fu Jinyan's hair, which was disheveled by the wind, and his worried eyes.
He opened his mouth and said something, but all his voice was drowned out by the loud buzzing of the propellers, and she couldn't hear him.
Below is the parking lot for the hillside villas.
Lu Yanzhi and Han Wei had already returned to the car.
After helping Han Wei into the passenger seat, Lu Yanzhi took the portable safe containing the auction items from the Fu Group.
Upon opening the box, the tanzanite and pigeon blood ruby remained quietly inside.
"Yes." Lu Yanzhi nodded, indicating that he had confirmed it.
Watching the Fu family leave, he did not immediately get into the car.
The Bugatti Centodieci was parked quietly. Lu Yanzhi glanced at the reporters who were being kept out by Fu's security in the distance, and then lowered his eyes slightly.
With his lips slightly pursed, Lu Yanzhi took out his phone.
On the message screen, his slender fingers swiped along, trying to find something.
Finally, Shi Nian's dialog box was found.
Unlike the endless stream of red dots popping up on the interface, it was quiet and made no sound.
She still didn't contact him.
"Brother Yanzhi?" Han Wei's voice came through.
He didn't know when Han Wei had opened the car door and gotten out. She stood next to the passenger seat, looking at him weakly.
"Is there anything wrong with the items being auctioned?" Han Wei asked with a smile.
Lu Yanzhi put away his phone, shook his head, and then took the safe back to his car.
“I’ll take you back,” he said.
"Okay," Han Wei said with a smile.
The Bugatti Centodieci drove down the mountain, with all other vehicles giving way to it.
Lu Yanzhi's expression remained unchanged, still the same expressionless demeanor, but he seemed to hear the buzzing sound of a propeller in his ears.
...
The group left the villa on the hillside in an orderly manner, and the previously crowded and noisy area gradually returned to calm.
However, the online buzz surrounding this issue has only just begun to explode.
First, there are gambling games among celebrities.
Two betting games were previously set up between bidders 888 and 823. One was to bet on who would ultimately win the item, and the other was to see if bidder 823 would dare to bid for several rounds after Lu Yanzhi personally took the stage.
The first one is pretty much a foregone conclusion, given Lu Yanzhi's wealth, so the odds are very low.
The second was an upset, with no bets placed correctly, allowing the bookmaker to rake in the profits.
"823 is really amazing. Not only did Lu Yanzhi lose the psychological battle, but we also lost all our bets."
"But unlimited gold coins are still cool. When will I be able to be like Lu Yanzhi, where I don't need to think about any fancy tricks and can just crush everyone with money? What good are 823's psychological tactics? He still lost to unlimited gold coins."
"The way you're talking makes it sound like you can have unlimited coins and Happy Beans whenever you want."
"Haha, for Lu Yanzhi, isn't it just a bunch of fun beans?"
"That's true."
As everyone discussed the matter, the dealer beamed with delight.
These bets are small amounts for them, but even small amounts make the house happy.
Most importantly, that night, the masked woman left a deep impression on countless celebrities.
If they didn't know she was an artist under Fu's Entertainment, they would have poached her.
Although Fu's Entertainment is just an industry under Fu Jinyan's control, Fu's Group is one of the three giants in City A, and they can't guarantee that they can offer better treatment than Fu's Entertainment.
These stories circulate only within a small circle of celebrities.
Reports about the interior of the villa still need to be reviewed before they can be published.
The topic that immediately topped the trending searches online was: #Lu Yanzhi Lights a Sky Lantern for Han Wei#
And then came the news that Han Wei fainted while busy with charity work.
The accompanying picture shows a drone lantern burning above the villa, along with fireworks and tassels, and a scene where Han Wei faints in front of everyone after speaking, and Lu Yanzhi picks her up.
