Chapter 383: Chapter 384: Snoring Like Thunder
Tang Qiulu slept until nearly 10 PM before waking up. She opened her eyes groggily and said she was hungry, so Su Changfeng quickly called room service.
"How long have I been asleep, and what time is it now?" Tang Qiulu rubbed her eyes and asked Su Changfeng.
"Not long, it’s still not even bright outside." Su Changfeng laughed.
Hearing Su Changfeng’s words, Tang Qiulu said apologetically, "I’m sorry, I originally promised to go out with you."
"After we finish the wedding photoshoot, there will be plenty of time, then we can go out to play." Su Changfeng said.
Tang Qiulu was particularly worried about the current situation of the group, so she planned to return to Jiang City after the shoot. However, hearing Su Changfeng’s suggestion of staying longer on Heaven Island made her feel a little uneasy.
"Can I call to check on the situation in Jiang City?" Tang Qiulu asked.
"Didn’t we agree beforehand to not worry about Jiang City’s matters first?" Su Changfeng said.
He could satisfy Tang Qiulu’s other requests, but not this one. Su Changfeng considered the trip to Heaven Island for the wedding photoshoot a way to make up for the honeymoon they missed when they got married. Since this was their honeymoon, it shouldn’t be disrupted by other matters.
"Alright." Tang Qiulu did not persist and lowered her head.
"You can rest assured, everything in Jiang City is running smoothly. When you return to Jiang City, you will see a brand new group that’s developing exceptionally well." Su Changfeng said.
Even though he hadn’t called Jiang City either, with Cheng Shi and Wu Feng there, he had no need for concern.
After the waiter brought the food, Tang Qiulu and Su Changfeng had dinner together and then rested.
The next day, the shooting proceeded as originally scheduled, but since tomorrow would be the auction, there would be a day’s delay. Tang Qiulu, eager to return to Jiang City quickly, urged Li Chen to speed up the shooting process. This day’s shoot was bound to be more exhausting than the previous day’s, and by the time they returned to the hotel, Tang Qiulu was completely drained, so Su Changfeng carried her back.
Su Changfeng saw through Tang Qiulu’s plan but said nothing, just letting her be.
On the day of the auction, Su Changfeng dressed in formal attire, and Tang Qiulu wore a gown, the two like a perfect couple. At this moment, they transformed into a moving scenic view.
Outside the venue, Sun Chen and Qin Feifei arrived intentionally early, but they didn’t go in. Having paid a deposit of a million for their spot in the 4th section, it would feel unworthy if they couldn’t go in alongside Su Changfeng. At least, they wanted to show off a bit in front of him.
"Pretty boy’s here." After a short wait, Qin Feifei noticed Su Changfeng and Tang Qiulu approaching, and she whispered to Sun Chen.
With a smug look, Sun Chen adjusted his collar. Seeing Tang Qiulu, he was once again filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred toward Su Changfeng. Why does a freeloader get to have such a beautiful wife while someone as rich as him has to marry a woman with average looks?
In front of Tang Qiulu, Qin Feifei felt a deep sense of inferiority, because not only did Tang Qiulu surpass her in beauty, but also in status and identity. After hearing from the bridal shop owner that Tang Qiulu was the chairwoman of a corporation, Qin Feifei abandoned any thoughts of competing with her.
However, there was still one aspect where she could compare herself to Tang Qiulu—men.
Sun Chen might not be a top tycoon, but compared to a pretty boy like Su Changfeng, he was more than adequate.
"What a coincidence, I didn’t expect you to come to the auction too." Sun Chen said to Su Changfeng with a smile.
"It’s such a coincidence that you waited specifically at the door for me. Indeed, it is a coincidence. You didn’t wait long, did you?" Su Changfeng smiled.
Sun Chen’s expression turned cold as he realized Su Changfeng had seen through his intentions, which left him somewhat embarrassed.
"I wasn’t talking to you, pretty boy. You’re a disgrace to men, who would want to talk to you?" Sun Chen said coldly.
"Why do I sense a hint of envy in your words? Could it be you also dream of being a kept pretty boy like me?" Su Changfeng replied.
Sun Chen looked disdainful. This bastard dared to speak so proudly about being supported by a woman. The shamelessness is indeed undefeatable.
"I have a fortune of tens of millions. Why would I need to be a pretty boy? You think every man is like you?" Sun Chen mocked.
Su Changfeng shrugged helplessly, "The auction is about to start. If you want to keep enjoying the breeze here, I have nothing to say. But please step aside and don’t block us from entering."
Sun Chen smiled smugly, "You should go in now, or else there won’t be any seats in the 5th section. But I’m not worried, not just anyone can sit in the 4th section."
Su Changfeng finally understood why Sun Chen had been waiting there for him, intending to use his section as leverage. However, Su Changfeng couldn’t comprehend Sun Chen’s mentality.
Is he an idiot, trying to compete in seating sections with someone who could afford a two-million-dollar wedding dress? Was his head slammed in a door, or did he slam it himself?
"Exactly." Su Changfeng gave Sun Chen a thumbs-up.
Seeing Su Changfeng admit it, Sun Chen became even more pleased with himself, never considering what section Su Changfeng might sit in, even though he regarded Su Changfeng as a freeloader. He forgot to consider Tang Qiulu’s identity.
Even if Su Changfeng didn’t reveal his true wealth, just based on Tang Qiulu’s assets, Sun Chen was not in a position to compete. However, his mindset was completely blinded by Qin Feifei’s desire to boast.
After the four of them entered together, Su Changfeng saw Li Chen and the female boss in the 5th section, with Li Chen waving at him.
Seeing this, Sun Chen became even more pleased and said to Su Changfeng, "Your friends are calling you, what are you waiting for?"
At that moment, a person wearing a white shirt from the auction house approached Su Changfeng.
"Mr. Ye, please follow me." The person said respectfully.
Su Changfeng nodded and followed him.
"Why would there be such a person, he’s so boring." Tang Qiulu held Su Changfeng’s hand with a look of disbelief and confusion.
Su Changfeng smiled faintly. Although this situation seemed foolish, he had encountered people even more ridiculous than Sun Chen, especially those arrogant rich second-generation types. Their antics were even more laughable, like immature children.
"Sun Chen probably spent a lot to get that seat in the 4th section. If he doesn’t show off a bit in front of us, he’d feel the money wasn’t worth it." Su Changfeng explained to Tang Qiulu with a smile.
Tang Qiulu, not knowing where they were going to sit, asked in confusion, "Does where we sit really make a difference? It’s so strange."
"Of course, there’s a difference. Just remember the looks of the people inside." Su Changfeng said.
Looks?
