Su Wanqiu said, “Go to the courtyard and wait for me. I’ll change my clothes.”
“Alright.”
Yang Luo nodded and left the room, arriving at the small courtyard.
After a while, Su Wanqiu, who had changed back into her cheongsam, walked out with a bag.
“Little Luo, let’s go.”
Then, Yang Luo and Su Wanqiu left the courtyard and arrived at the entrance of the teahouse.
He saw a royal blue Bentley Mulsanne parked at the door.
A female chauffeur in a lady’s suit was currently waiting by the driver’s door.
After getting into the car, the car started and left the teahouse.
On the way…
Yang Luo asked curiously, “Sister Wanqiu, where are we going to participate in the auction?”
Su Wanqiu said, “Yunshang clubhouse.”
“Okay.”
Yang Luo nodded and asked, “Then what will be auctioned this time?”
“At auctions, there will usually be some jade jewelry, antique calligraphy, and expensive medicinal herbs.
I have an auction booklet here. See if there’s anything you like.”
As she spoke, Su Wanqiu took out an auction book from her bag and handed it to Yang Luo.
Yang Luo took the auction book and flipped through it.
As expected, just as Su Wanqiu had said, most of the items to be auctioned this time were jade, jewelry, antique calligraphy, and paintings. There were also many expensive herbs.
The other things did not interest Yang Luo.
However, two herbs attracted Yang Luo’s attention.
One was a 200-year-old ginseng, and the other was a purple medicinal herb that looked like ginseng.
This purple medicinal herb was labeled “Sage Herb”.
However, Yang Luo felt that this purple ginseng looked a little familiar. It seemed to be the last medicinal herb he needed to refine the Spirit Gathering Pill, the Purple Dragon Root.
Of course, because he had not seen the real thing, Yang Luo was not sure, so he planned to take a look at it at the auction.
If it was really the Purple Dragon Root, he had to bid for it.
“Little Luo, is there anything you like?”
By the side, Su Wanqiu asked.
“Of course.”
Yang Luo nodded.
“That’s great!”
Su Wanqiu smiled gently and said, “If you see anything you like later, just tell me. I’ll help you bid for it!”
Yang Luo said, “Sister Wanqiu, let’s make things clear first. You just have to help me bid for something.
I can bid for the others myself.”
Su Wanqiu said, “How can that do? I’ll just help you bid for whatever you like.”
Yang Luo said helplessly, “Sister Wanqiu, if you do this, I won’t dare to participate in this auction.”
Su Wanqiu rolled her eyes charmingly at his insistence, “Alright, alright, alright. I’ll help you bid for only one item.”
After driving for more than half an hour, they arrived at Yunshang clubhouse.
There were already many luxury cars parked at the entrance of the clubhouse. Those who came to participate in the auction were definitely rich and part of the noble circles.
After getting out of the car, Yang Luo followed Su Wanqiu into the clubhouse.
As the auction had yet to begin, everyone was resting in the lounge area of the clubhouse.
Yang Luo and Su Wanqiu also found a seat and sat down.
Su Wanqiu brought up a topic, “Little Luo, how have you been getting along with Qingmei recently?”
Yang Luo shrugged, “Pretty good.”
Su Wanqiu said helplessly, “I don’t know what Father is thinking. Why did he insist on you getting engaged to Qingmei immediately?
Although Qingmei is full of gratitude for you saving her grandfather, it would probably take some time for her to accept you.
After all, Qingmei had never been in a relationship before and did not know much about relationships.
Relationships can’t be forced. If you can really reach the end, that would naturally be best.”
“I know.”
Yang Luo nodded and said, “That’s why I’ll give her time to sincerely accept me.
Of course, if she still refuses to accept me in the future, I will annul the engagement with her.”
Su Wanqiu stared at Yang Luo with her beautiful eyes and said, “Little Luo, I’m actually very curious. Why did you agree to be engaged to Qingmei?
Could it be just because Qingmei is beautiful and is the eldest daughter of our Su family?”
Yang Luo met Su Wanqiu’s gaze and said, “Other than these, of course, there are other reasons. It’s just that it’s not convenient for me to say more now.
Qingmei will know in the future.”
Su Wanqiu was about to speak when suddenly, a mellow voice sounded from the side.
“Beauty, can we get to know each other?”
Yang Luo and Su Wanqiu turned around and saw a group of people walking over.
At the front was a handsome young man in a black casual suit.
“Who arc you?”
Su Wanqiu asked in confusion.
The young man smiled and said, “Beauty, let me introduce myself. My name is Qiao Yongjic. My father is the owner of the Zhongyi Martial Arts School, Qiao Jinsong.”
Hearing this, Yang Luo’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Just now, he felt that this guy was an Acquired Realm Martial Warrior. It turned out that he was the son of the dojo master.
“So you’re Hall Master Qiao’s son.”
Su Wanqiu nodded in realization and asked, “May I ask what’s the matter, Young Master Qiao?”
Qiao Yongjic smiled gently and said, “Beauty, I’ve liked you since I first saw you. Perhaps this is called love at first sight.
So, I want you to be my girlfriend.”
Upon hearing this, Su Wanqiu could not help but smile.
Seeing Su Wanqiu’s smile, Qiao Yongjie’s eyes widened and he felt his heart skip a beat.
The other men present were also stunned.
However, many people present knew that Su Wanqiu was the Third Madam of the Su family, so they only dared to watch from afar and did not dare to approach her.
However, they really wanted to see if Young Master Qiao could win the beauty’s heart.
Su Wanqiu said in amusement, “Young Master Qiao, I’m much older than you. Let’s forget it.”
Qiao Yongjic smiled and said, “I like older women who are more charming than me, is there a problem?”
Su Wanqiu tucked her hair behind calmly and continued, “I’m sorry to disappoint you once more. I already have a boyfriend.”
“You have a boyfriend?”
Qiao Yongjie’s expression darkened. He pointed at Yang Luo and said, “Are you talking about this kid?”
“That’s right.”
Su Wanqiu nodded and secretly shot Yang Luo a look.
Yang Luo was instantly stunned, but he quickly came back to his senses. It seemed that this woman wanted him to be her shield.
Everyone present was also stunned.
What was this situation?
Su Wanqiu actually had a boyfriend?
Why had they never heard of it before?
For so many years, Su Wanqiu had always been alone and had rejected countless confessions.
Unexpectedly, the famous beauty in Jiang City had a boyfriend!
Everyone looked at Yang Luo curiously.
However, when they saw Yang Luo’s attire, everyone shook their heads.
This guy was Su Wanqiu’s boyfriend?
But why were his bearings so ordinary?
“Young Master Qiao, I’m sorry. She’s my girlfriend. If you want to find a girlfriend, go find someone else.”
Yang Luo gave Qiao Yongjie a harmless smile.
Qiao Yongjie sized up Yang Luo and saw that Yang Luo was wearing a cheap black cotton shirt. A hint of disdain immediately flashed across his eyes..
