Qi Yuan turned around and saw Song Xiao pushing a wheelchair with a tall man sitting in it.

He was clearly shorter than everyone around him in his wheelchair, but it was as if he was sitting on a dragon throne and looking down on everyone. The man wore a golden half-mask, and the eyes that were revealed seemed to be filled with contempt for the world.

Shen Yuzhi?

What was he doing here?

Everyone stared at the man in the wheelchair. Was this the Second Young Master who was said to have a violent temper and never met outsiders?

This was the first time the Second Young Master of the Shen family had appeared in public. It made people so curious that they wanted to see the person under the mask clearly.

At this moment, the attendant at the entrance of the Golden Jade Pavilion was already sweating profusely.

What had he done? The person he stopped was actually Young Madam Shen!

Song Xiao pushed Shen Yuzhi to Qi Yuan’s side.

Shen Yuzhi’s cold eyes looked at Jun Shan and Song Ziqian with the aura of a queen…

Song Ziqian retreated with a dark expression and returned to Qi Yanran’s side. He could manipulate Qi Yuan in private, but he did not dare to offend the Shen family.

Jun Shan and Shen Yuzhi looked at each other without fear. He waved at Qi Yuan and said, “Little kid, since your male companion is here, I’ll leave.”

Qi Yuan nodded her thanks to Jun Shan.

Only then did she bend down slightly and lower her voice. “Shen Yuzhi, what do you want to do?”

He had suddenly appeared at the Chinese Arts Academy and kidnapped her before suffering at her hands. Hence, she was sure he was here for a reason.

Qi Yuan didn’t know what Shen Yuzhi wanted to do, but this man’s personality might disrupt her plan.

Shen Yuzhi approached Qi Yuan and whispered into her ear, “Don’t be nervous. I’m just here to be your male companion. Look, I’m already pretending to be a cripple and sitting in a wheelchair.”

“You are not to do anything unnecessary today.” Qi Yuan’s tone was cold.

“Are you giving me an order?” The corners of Shen Yuzhi’s eyes under the mask raised slightly, as if he was surprised by Qi Yuan’s attitude.

The warning tone in Qi Yuan’s voice deepened. “Be obedient, or I’ll knock you out right now!”

Shen Yuzhi seemed a little stunned.

Qi Yuan had already stood up and was standing beside Shen Yuzhi’s wheelchair.

Only then did Shen Yuzhi look at the Golden Jade Tower and say coldly, “Look at her face clearly. If there’s a next time, you guys can forget about holding auctions at the Golden Jade Tower.”

The attendant guarding the door fell to the ground. The manager of the Golden Jade Tower kept apologizing.

Even though Shen Yuzhi was in a wheelchair, no one dared to underestimate him because he represented the Shen family after all.

Qi Yuan reached out and gently landed on Shen Yuzhi’s shoulder as a warning.

She knew too well what kind of person Shen Yuzhi was. She knew how terrifying he could be.

She couldn’t let him ruin today’s auction.

Feeling the slight force on his shoulder, Shen Yuzhi gave up.

He and Qi Yuan entered the venue together.

An attendant stepped forward and accepted Qi Yuan’s coat.

In that instant, it was as if a light had come on in a dim place.

Qi Yuan was dressed in a silk sky blue dress. She seemed to be wearing the starry sky, but even the starry sky could not suppress her beauty.

Her skin was fairer than snow, and her waist was slender. Her long hair was casually tied behind her head, and her slightly pale face had a bewitching beauty. She was like a fairy from the sky stepping on clouds and walking over step by step, making people subconsciously want to help her up, afraid that she would fall.

Everyone at the scene was stunned.

They were both shocked by the beauty of Qi Yuan and by the fact that she was wearing the dress they had dreamed of.

That seemingly low-key gown was a gown that Golden Jade Tower never took out to auction.

It was a gown they couldn’t buy even if they had the money.

The gown was the perfect invitation.

Some people in the venue thought that their mockery of Qi Yuan was like a slap to their faces.

The attendant at the entrance of Golden Jade Tower slapped himself.

The treasure of their Golden Jade Tower was on Young Madam Shen. Even if she was wearing a coat, he should have recognized her.

Beautiful woman. The man in the wheelchair. The man’s face was still masked, but it made them look a good match.

When Qi Boyuan saw Qi Yuan appear, he immediately stood up and greeted her, “Qi Yuan, this way.”

Qi Yuan thought that she was waiting outside the door for Qi Boyuan but in reality, he had already arrived.

She went to Qi Boyuan’s side, and Shen Yuzhi naturally followed.

Someone told Qi Boyuan in a low voice that the person in the wheelchair was the Second Young Master of the Shen family. Qi Boyuan’s eyes lit up. The Second Young Master Shen was more interesting than he had expected.

Not only did Qi Yuan come, but she had even brought the Second Young Master Shen along. In that case, there would be no problem with today’s auction.

Everyone present today was a reputable figure. They all saw Qi Yuan bringing Second Young Master Shen to sit beside Qi Boyuan.

The rumors of the Shen family hating the Qi family were naturally broken.

Second Young Master had already shown up. It was obvious that he wanted to support the Qi family.

Qi Yanran on the other hand, was not with the Qi family but Song Ziqian.

At this moment, the jealousy in her heart was almost overflowing.

Why was Qi Yuan receiving so much attention!

All those envious stares should have been on her!

The auction soon began.

Qi Boyuan successfully won a few items at a low price.

With Second Young Master Shen there, no one dared to challenge Qi Boyuan.

Qi Yuan leaned lazily against the back of the chair. She was laid back and did not try to bid for any items.

Perhaps it was because she had been busy doing too much every day in her previous life. Other than being proactive when it came to revenge, she was lazy most of the time. She would not move if she could and would not sit if she could lie down.

Shen Yuzhi looked at Qi Yuan as if no one was around.

Song Xiao looked at his master…

Until an auction item appeared.

It was a painting of high mountains and flowing water.

Qi Yuan sat up straight. This was the work of his teacher, Li Hongjun.

Shen Yuzhi kept looking at Qi Yuan and naturally noticed her gaze.

The beautiful host enthusiastically introduced, “Chinese painting master Li Hongjun’s early famous work. The starting price is five million.”

Soon someone began to bid.

“Six million.”

“Seven million.”

Song Ziqian made his first bid. “Eight million.”

A female voice in a private room said, “Ten million.”

Song Ziqian continued to bid. “Eleven million.”

The woman had no intention of giving up. “Thirteen million.”

Song Ziqian gritted his teeth. “Fourteen million.”

The woman continued, “Eighteen million.”

Song Ziqian was furious. This person clearly wanted to fight him to the death.

And she appeared to be much more generous than he was. She seemed to be in no shortage of money.

So much for the value of the painting. If the price went any higher, it wouldn’t be worth it.

Song Ziqian whispered to Qi Yanran beside him, “Yanran, I think that person seems to like this work very much. A gentleman doesn’t take what others like. Let’s forget about it and not compete with her.”

Qi Yanran bit her lip and lowered her head in silence.

At this moment, Qi Yanran felt that she looked down on Song Ziqian even more. He couldn’t even afford a painting, having to give up after just ten million yuan.

She had always wanted the best of everything. All that talk about a gentleman not taking what others liked was just an excuse for his incompetence.

If only… If only she could marry Eldest Young Master Shen.

Qi Yuan had only married that cripple from the Shen family and look at how the people at the auction today were already praising her to the skies.

“Eighteen million going once.”

“Eighteen million going twice.”

Beside Qi Yuan, the man in the wheelchair said in a cold and noble voice, “30 million.”
