Chapter 303 His husband is Qi Luohan?
Zhou Shuang was watching intently when her cell phone rang. She was afraid it was Fu Yu, so she didn't dare to look.
After a few seconds, he slowly took out his cell phone and clicked on it, which was a message from Qi Huaijing.
"There's an auction in Rongcheng tomorrow. Can you go there for me?"
Zhou Shuang's curiosity was instantly piqued.
Auctions usually feature expensive jewelry or antiques.
She walked around his villa several times, and apart from some antiques that were particularly worth collecting, she didn't think he had any fanatical interest in these things.
"Are you sending someone off?"
She felt this was the only explanation.
There was a faint "hmm" in reply.
Zhou Shuang agreed immediately. After following him like a parasite, she could finally do something for him.
Qi Huaijing chatted with her for a while and suddenly said something.
"It's late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
“······”
She was about to reply to him when another sentence popped out: "Go to bed early, good night."
Zhou Shuang felt inexplicably lost, and after several minutes she replied, "Oh."
Qi Huaijing jumped out of the chat interface and stared at the day's news.
In a three-minute shot, the man and woman's faces are facing each other for two and a half minutes.
His eyes were like knives, and the picture froze on the two people holding hands.
Therefore, the reason why Zhou Shuang didn't come to France with him was that she had an appointment with another man.
He didn't know what was going on with the sour feeling that kept surging in his heart, and now he had the urge to fly back and ask her what was going on.
But in the end he still held back. Women really can't be idle. Once they are idle, trouble will arise. Those men are like flies, and they will want to take advantage of any pretty girl in someone else's house.
It seems that he can't let his wife be idle, he must at least find something to attract her attention.
He knew the man in the camera. He was Xiao Boheng's nephew, who moved to Rongcheng more than ten years ago. It was said that they were from Haicheng.
Qi Huaijing's pupils suddenly tightened. Haicheng, he and his wife were from the same place.
He looked at the time and realized that he had been sitting on the sofa in the hotel for more than three hours, and it was almost dawn outside.
Qi Huaijing finally turned off the screen of his phone...
The next day, Qi Luoyan was still asleep, but Zhou Shuang had already gotten up.
The housekeeper was slightly stunned when he saw her coming downstairs.
"Madam, are you going out?"
Seeing that she was dressed very exquisitely and formally, his brows were furrowed.
The gentleman left yesterday and probably won't be back today.
Yesterday, Zhou Shuang was only wearing simple commuting clothes. It was still early, and she must be going somewhere if she dressed so formally and exquisitely.
However, he could not interfere in the affairs of the master's family. In the end, the butler showed his strength and a sumptuous breakfast was served on the table ten minutes later.
Zhou Shuang looked at the exquisite plating and the beautiful meal, and felt reluctant to eat it.
But it was already late. Qi Huaijing said that we should enter at 8 o'clock, and the auction would start at 9 o'clock. There was only half an hour left until 8 o'clock.
She quickly finished the food on her plate and drank the milk in one gulp. Wang Yu was already waiting at the door.
"Madam, President Qi asked me to pick you up."
The housekeeper watched Zhou Shuang walk into the yard, and heard Wang Yu's words. He put down the phone he had picked up silently, then turned around and went about his business.
Accompanied by Wang Yu, Zhou Shuang entered the auction hall without any obstacles, and there was a special person to greet and guide her.
This was her first time attending an auction. She remembered that in the past, whenever Lin Shu wanted something, he would ask his assistant to contact the auction house, and then he would place an order online and someone would deliver it to his home. Did he have to go to Rongcheng in person?
"Madam, Mr. Qi was worried that you might be bored. The atmosphere here is lively, so he asked me to bring you here in person. If you see anything you like, just take a picture. Don't worry about the money."
Zhou Shuang nodded, took a number and sat down.
At nine o'clock sharp, the venue was already full.
Apparently, she's not the only one who's bored.
Not knowing what they were going to sell, Zhou Shuang just straightened her body and stretched her neck. When Qi Luoyan called, she directly rejected the call and looked at Wang Yu.
"Can you bring Luo Yan over as well?"
Wang Yu frowned slightly, but he would only follow Zhou Shuang's orders and would not refute them.
"good."
Wang Yu got a headache when he thought of that young lady.
Zhou Shuang told Qi Luoyan that she was at the auction and asked Wang Yu to pick her up. Then there was no news from the other side. Zhou Shuang guessed that she might have gone to wash and change clothes.
The auction officially began, and the host made a move with lapis lazuli, which made Zhou Shuang open her eyes wide.
That's the raw material used to make ultramarine, and it's extremely expensive.
Even she had only bought it two years ago, a tiny bit made using traditional methods, and she was reluctant to use it at all.
But this time, the piece of lapis lazuli in the host's hand was twice the size of the one she bought. For a painter, this is a treasure in her heart.
800,000
As soon as the host made a bid, someone followed suit.
"One million."
Before Zhou Shuang could make a bid, the people in the audience went crazy.
Which painter wouldn’t be confused by this color?
No wonder Qi Huaijing asked her to come to the auction, it turned out that everything being sold there was something she liked.
Wang Yu arrived with Qi Luoyan just in time, and he moved closer to Zhou Shuang.
"Madam, do you like this?"
Although Zhou Shuang felt it was rare, the price was too high.
After all, it wasn't her own money, just paint. She was a little reluctant to spend millions of it. She still had some left over, and she was afraid that if she bought it back, she would just use it as a decoration out of her heartache.
During this moment of hesitation, Wang Yu could clearly see the desire in Zhou Shuang's eyes.
"One hundred and ten thousand——"
She didn't dare to bid, and Wang Yu raised his hand and said, "Light the sky lantern."
There was complete silence all around.
Fu Yu, who was sitting in the corner, also narrowed his eyes at this time. When he saw Wang Yu and Zhou Shuang beside him clearly, the blood in his body seemed to freeze.
When he heard the female voice, he thought it sounded like Zhou Shuang.
It turned out to be true, but there was a man sitting next to her. Fu Yu thought of what Zhou Shuang said, that she was already married. Could it be that the man was her husband?
Maybe that man was not in her group, and he was just overthinking it.
But the next second, the man started whispering to Zhou Shuang. Because they were too far away, Fu Yu naturally couldn't hear what they were saying, but Zhou Shuang's face seemed half blamed and half happy, and that expression could not be faked.
“You really don’t need to spend that money.”
Wang Yu whispered, "Boss Qi has instructed that anything the Madam likes should be bought."
“······”
Zhou Shuang thought that lapis lazuli was already the best quality, but she didn't expect that the following auction items would be more tempting than the last.
She was dazzled and wanted to buy each one, but Wang Yu was staring at her, and she was afraid that if she showed any interest again, Wang Yu would light the sky lantern again.
She pressed him down and stopped him from moving: "Assistant Wang, let's wait until I think it through before filming."
If I keep buying like this, no amount of money will be enough.
Qi Luoyan looked at her and said, "Don't worry, my uncle has plenty of money, just spend it."
Zhou Shuang said nothing, knowing that everyone doted on her, but she really didn't have the habit of spending money indiscriminately.
"Master Fu, is that her? There's a man next to her. Are you really in love with a married woman?"
Li Mo was worried about Fu Yu all night, but it turned out that nothing happened to him. He dragged himself out early this morning and said he wanted to buy something. He thought he was selling something precious, but when he looked out, the items were all raw materials for painting.
Fu Yu glanced at Li Mo coldly and said, "Mind your own business."
He originally planned to come here to see if there was anything he could buy to please Zhou Shuang. To pursue a woman, one must cater to her preferences, such as jewelry. He looked at Zhou Shuang's clothes and the car she drove. The cheongsam she wore was worth the price of an ordinary family's house. People in Rongcheng could recognize hand-embroidered items at a glance even though they could not recognize anything else.
Fu Yu thought that ordinary things would definitely not catch Zhou Shuang's eye. Since he was an original artist, it would be right for him to buy things related to painting. But he came here and hadn't even bought anything yet, but someone intercepted him. If he guessed correctly, the man was the "husband" Zhou Shuang mentioned? However, apart from occasional chats, the two of them didn't have any interaction.
Li Mo couldn't help but mutter.
"Can't you just have a normal relationship? Why do you like being the third one?"
Fu Yu glanced at him calmly and said, "If you don't want to sit here, get out."
Li Mo fell silent for a moment.
Fu Yu did not move after that. Looking at the expressions of Zhou Shuang and the man, he knew that if Zhou Shuang took a fancy to anyone today, the man would buy her. In that case, it would be meaningless for Zhou Shuang to buy anything.
"Why does that man not look like her husband to me?"
Li Mo's words cheered up Fu Yu, because just as he thought, he felt that Li Mo finally said something sensible, so he spoke lightly.
"He's not her husband to begin with. Judging by the way she's dressed, he must be some wealthy lady. Her family didn't want her to be deceived, so they deliberately tricked her into saying she was already married."
In any case, Fu Yu would not believe a word that Zhou Shuang was married.
"What we are going to auction now is the last piece of collection for today."
The host took out a men's silk top, which was completely handmade and had dark patterns on it that were faintly visible when exposed to light.
This dress really attracted Zhou Shuang's attention. Fu Yu had no interest in the dress, but Zhou Shuang rarely looked at Wang Yu.
"I want this."
Qi Huaijing gave her so many things, but she never gave him anything decent.
Wang Yu was about to say "OK" when Zhou Shuang added another sentence.
"I'll buy it myself, without Huai Jing's money."
Qi Luoyan was curious: "Why are you buying men's clothes?"
“·····”
Zhou Shuang knew that it made sense for Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi to protect Qi Luoyan so fiercely.
"It's for your uncle."
Qi Luoyan looked at Zhou Shuang and was very happy: "Then my uncle will definitely be very happy."
"Five hundred thousand, is there anyone who wants to bid?"
"Three million. If anyone still wants it, I'll light a sky lantern."
Zhou Shuang's words shocked everyone. Wang Yu had already bought a lot of things for her. Almost all the top-quality items that could be seen at the auction were collected by Wang Yu.
Li Mo and Fu Yu couldn't help but look in Zhou Shuang's direction.
"I bought this for her husband."
Li Mo was not afraid of death and said something, Fu Yu said coldly: "Such a dark color, it must be bought for her father or grandfather."
Zhou Shuang bought the finale piece without any hesitation. In fact, some people at the venue came for this dress, and they looked unhappy when they didn't buy it. They looked at her with resentment and talked about her privately. They had never seen anyone like Zhou Shuang, but everyone knew in their hearts that the real owner would not show up at the auction.
She must have bought it for the boss behind her, but this boss is too generous. Today, almost everyone's attention is on Zhou Shuang and Wang Yu. The two of them have spent nearly 100 million here, and they spent tens of millions on the raw materials for the paintings.
Now he bought a shirt for three million without blinking an eye, which is really heartbreaking.
After the auction, the organizer led the members to the box to wait for the auctioned items to be packaged and delivered. Zhou Shuang and her three companions followed the staff and unexpectedly bumped into Fu Yu and Li Mo face to face.
"Hey, you're here too?"
Zhou Shuang was a little surprised to see Fu Yu, but Fu Yu was very calm.
Fu Yu glanced at Wang Yu and asked, "Is this your husband?"
She is good-looking, but it's a pity that he doesn't know her. There should be no rich young man in Rongcheng who is unfamiliar to him. The amount he just spent was quite generous. Looking at the upper class in Rongcheng, it is common to spend tens of millions on women.
“???”
Wang Yu immediately realized what Fu Yu meant, but Fu Yu found that Wang Yu did not have Zhou Shuang's wedding ring in her hand, so she said that getting married was just an excuse.
Qi Luoyan was about to speak up to clarify the facts, but Fu Yu, with his proud personality, no longer wanted to listen to their joint lies.
"My friends and I came here to have fun. Miss Zhou, you're married and you're still out with other men. Your husband really doesn't care about you."
After he finished speaking, he and Li Mo left directly. Li Modao politely made an apologetic expression because he recognized Qi Luoyan, and then chased after him: "Ancestor, that girl is Luo Han's biological sister, don't you know?"
Fu Yu paused. "Zhou Shuang? Isn't Qi Luohan's sister's last name Qi?"
"Two women, I'm talking about the other one, Qi Luoyan."
Fu Yu was finally shocked: "Her husband is Qi Luohan?"
Everyone in the circle knows that Qi Luohan has been obsessed with a poor girl recently and has been hanging out with her all day long. He has missed their gatherings several times.
If Zhou Shuang's husband is Qi Luohan, then he really has no chance.
There are no more than three aristocratic families in Rongcheng, and the Qi family is one of them.
But Zhou Shuang's temperament doesn't seem like that of someone from a poor family.
"There's really nothing we can do, Master Fu. I think we should just forget it. Young Master Qi has rarely been out playing lately. That girl isn't dressed tacky. The Qi family has the means."
Fu Yu was in a very bad mood. He immediately turned around and went back to find Zhou Shuang to ask for clarification. The staff there had already packed the things and handed them to Zhou Shuang.
"Ma'am, your things are packed. Please check the list of items."
Wang Yu and Qi Luoyan checked everything one by one, made sure nothing was missing and got into the car directly.
When Fu Yu chased out, he only saw a back view of the high-end business car disappearing into a cloud of dust. However, Li Mo noticed something.
"That car seems to belong to Qi Huaijing."
Fu Yu was even more upset now: "What did you say?"
"Didn't you see the license plate with the last digits ending in 9? There's only one in the whole city of Rongcheng. It's Qi Huaijing's car."
Li Mo stopped talking. That woman had no chance of hooking up with Qi Luohan. If it was Qi Huaijing—
"Who said today that Qi Huaijing is already married? He's going to the woman's place for the wedding during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and will be returning to Rongcheng for a banquet during the New Year..."
