Chapter 237: You Owe Me This
The black Koenigsegg Agera R drove along with the traffic flow in S City. After a while, they arrived at the venue of the luxurious cruise ship auction.
The sun had not set yet at that time and the sea reflected the afterglow of the sunset, allowing the viewers to immerse in its beauty.
However, the beautiful scenery did not attract the gaze of people at that moment. Instead, it was the luxurious cruise ship that covered a vast area which was most eye-catching.
The cruise ship looked dozens of meters high. The high quality red carpet extended from the gangway all the way up to the entire deck.
Although they had not gone up, Su Wan could imagine how magnificent the interior of the cruise ship would be.
Su Wan shifted her eyes back to Jiang Xuecheng. She pointed at the cruise ship in front of her and exclaimed, “It looks tall. I wonder how much a cruise ship like this would cost…”
Su Wan thought it might be an investment of at least a few billion dollars. It was no wonder that the auction by the Lu family charged such a high fee. After all, the upfront cost was so high!
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan sticking her tongue out and he smiled. He caressed her hair as he asked, “Do you like cruise ships? If you like it, I can buy one for you next time.”
The man’s magnetic voice sounded and when it reached Su Wan’s ears, she quickly shook her head.
“No, thank you. I’m just curious.”
Jiang Xuecheng was a person who would walk his talk and would do whatever he promised her.
Hence, Su Wan did not think Jiang Xuecheng was joking. If she were to say she liked it, Jiang Xuecheng would definitely get one for her.
She would feel the pain if he had to spend more than a billion dollars just because of her quick tongue.
“Xuecheng, let’s go up.”
As she spoke, she held Jiang Xuecheng’s arm and together, they walked up the gangway spread with red carpet.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of those who were present.
Jiang Xuecheng had been known to have a cold personality and would rarely attend dinners or auctions but since he married Su Wan, his initial habits had changed.
Looking at the couple from afar, the same praise arose in everyone’s hearts—they were indeed a couple made in heaven.
Jiang Xuecheng was in a casual suit and he looked extremely handsome. Su Wan, who was standing beside him, was pretty and elegant and did not look inferior to the man beside her.
The red quartz on her forehead was shining with splendor, making her face dazzlingly beautiful.
Many ladies present saw Su Wan’s dressing and couldn’t help asking who Su Wan’s stylist was. They were thinking if they could get the stylist to style them in the future.
After Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng walked to the deck, a group of people came surrounding them but due to Jiang Xuecheng’s aura, many stopped moving forward at a distance about one or two meters away.
A fat middle-aged man came forward to welcome Jiang Xuecheng. He smiled in a flattering manner.
This man was Liu Fu, the person in charge of Lu Group’s auction. Although his look was plain, he was very tactful and was good at speaking out of both sides of his mouth.
Liu Fu bowed respectfully, “Hello Young Master, we welcome you and your wife. We are greatly honoured by your gracious presence to our humble auction.”
Upon hearing this, Su Wan immediately smirked. She poked Jiang Xuecheng with her finger and her eyes were smiling mischievously.
This cruise ship’s decoration was so luxurious that the word ‘humble’ was indeed fake.
Jiang Xuecheng darted a glance at Su Wan and shifted his eyes toward the middle-aged man.
“Where is Mr. Lu? Please bring me to him.”
Someone had tried to kill Su Wan with a brick previously and Lu Qingyu pushed her away in time to save her life. Jiang Xuecheng wanted to thank him and at the same time, ask him a few more questions.
Liu Fu modestly tilted his body and pointed the direction.
“Young Master, our CEO is in the lounge on the fifth floor. Let me bring you there.”
Jiang Xuecheng nodded and then turned toward Su Wan, “Wan Wan, wait for me here. I’ll be right back.”
Su Wan was slightly stunned. She had not expected Jiang Xuecheng to leave her alone.
Lu Qingyu had saved her life. Except for the time she sent him to the hospital, she had not seen him since.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng hesitantly. She asked softly, “Can’t I go with you? I wish to thank him too.”
Jiang Xuecheng’s handsome face was calm and there was an unquestionable power when he spoke.
“I’ll go alone and will thank him on your behalf.”
Su Wan knew she could not dissuade Jiang Xuecheng. She nodded and watched as Jiang Xuecheng was led to the elevator by Liu Fu.
***
Su Wan had not been back to S City in the past three years and didn’t like socializing with her peers in the upper social circle. Thus, Su Wan did not have the mood to start a conversation with anyone.
She walked toward the edge of the deck and held on to the railing. Then, she opened her arms wide to enjoy the embrace of the sea breeze.
The sea breeze of summer brushed against her skin and she felt as if every pore on hers had been opened. Su Wan smiled and couldn’t help closing her eyes.
What Su Wan didn’t know was that there were two people among the crowd watching her at that moment.
One was her cousin sister, Su Yurou, while the other was Gu Zihang.
Gu Zihang was standing on the stairs between the first and second floors. His deep and dark eyes moved and swept across the place where Su Wan was standing.
After some thoughts, just as Gu Zihang was ready to chat with Su Wan, he saw a familiar figure walking toward Su Wan from the crowd.
It was Su Yurou!
Gu Zihang was stunned. He had now avoided occasions where he and Su Yurou would appear at the same time because every time people saw them together, they would show an expression as if they were gossiping about his wife cheating on him even though they might not dare say it in front of him.
At this thought, Gu Zihang’s face turned cold and he seemed to have been enveloped by a layer of dark clouds.
He moved back his feet and retracted to the stairs. He didn’t want to be criticized by people and become the laughing stock on the cruise ship today.
At that time, Su Wan was enjoying the sea breeze when she suddenly heard a pleasant voice from behind.
“Wan, we haven’t seen each other for quite some time.”
Su Wan’s face changed hearing that voice. She opened her eyes and turned around.
The figure of a woman, clad in red, entered her vision as she said faintly, “It’s you.”
Su Yurou moved slowly toward Su Wan with a glass of red wine in her hand.
She had undoubtedly dressed up today. Her delicate face was like a rose and the V-neck bare back evening gown brought out her figure. She looked charming to the eye.
Su Wan heard she had not led a good life after divorcing Gu Zihang but looking at her today, her face was not at all haggard.
Su Yurou smiled faintly and stood still in front of Su Wan. Her gentle face suddenly became ferocious.
“B*tch, you owe me this!”
In the blink of an eye, Su Yurou splashed the red wine directly at Su Wan!
