The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband
Chapter 268 Revealing True Appearance
"Ah!"
At Longtengju in the imperial capital, Tianlin had just driven the S500 to the gate and stopped when he heard Xu Yiyu, who was sitting in the back seat, sneeze violently.
Lu Sanshi, who had been paying attention to his baby's physical condition, immediately reached out and touched Xu Yiyu's forehead: "What's wrong, baby? Did you catch a cold because the air conditioner was set too low when you were resting in the hotel just now?"
Xu Yiyu shook his head and rubbed his nose with lingering fear.
"It's okay, it's okay. I think it's more likely that someone is talking about me than catching a cold."
After getting Tongzi, Xu Yiyu's sixth sense was often unexpectedly accurate. She also felt that after she became the chairman of the group, more and more people talked about her, Xu.
Seeing that his baby was fine, Lu Sanshi turned around and exchanged a tacit glance with Tianlin in the driver's seat through the rearview mirror. Then he straightened his spirit and helped Xu Yiyu out of the car in a gentlemanly manner.
Xu Yiyu was wearing a set of Ming Dynasty costumes given to her by Xiao Yunduo today. Contrary to her usual low-key and gentle style of clothing, not only was the main color of the entire outfit bright vermilion, the retro hair bun and accessories were also intricate and exquisite. Combined with this grand and bright wide-sleeved costume, the tall Xu Yiyu looked even more luxurious and beautiful.
"Our ancestors' aesthetic taste is truly amazing. This color combination and head ornaments are so in tune with the temperament of us Chinese people..."
"More than that! All aesthetic perfection ultimately depends on the face. This young lady is so beautiful that even if she is wearing a coarse linen shirt, she is many times prettier than an ordinary person!"
Because the mask did not match the style of the Chinese clothing, Xu Yiyu did not put on the mask immediately when he entered from the entrance of Longtengju today. Instead, he put it in his wide sleeves and walked slowly into the venue with a graceful manner.
Since his true face was revealed, he naturally heard the discussions from other participants around him. Xu Yiyu had also prepared himself mentally early on.
In order to match Xu Yiyu's outfit today, Lu Sanshi also wore men's Ming Dynasty Chinese clothing. His superior facial lines not only made him look more noble against the backdrop of the clothing, but he also exuded a domineering aura that looked down on the world.
Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi are in a good mood, but that doesn't mean Zhou Zhiyu, who was released from house arrest by his father today, is in a good mood.
When Zhou Zhiyu followed her father Zhou Fu into the venue from the main gate of Longtengju, the car they were riding in was just a few cars behind Xu Yiyu, so she saw quite clearly the scene of Xu Yiyu, who was dressed luxuriously and had a grand makeup, entering the venue accompanied by Lu Sanshi, and she also heard the guests around her talking about Xu Yiyu's outfit today.
Zhou Zhiyu, who had made up his mind not to upset his father during the auction, silently adjusted his breathing rhythm several times and suppressed the jealousy and unhappiness in his heart.
Zhou Fu was a few steps ahead of Zhou Zhiyu and walked in front of her, while walking into the venue side by side with Zhou Zhiyu was her second sister Zhou Zhishan.
Zhou Zhishan was keeping an eye on all directions and did not miss the change in her little sister's expression, but she just looked at Zhou Zhiyu twice more and did not say anything to her.
She came today to supervise her younger sister. She couldn't control what her younger sister thought, but as long as she didn't do anything wrong, she could still be a tolerant sister.
Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi walked into Box No. 6 first, while the Zhou family members who were a few steps behind saw a pair of people walking into the box.
——Including Zhou Zhiyu, who has always been dissatisfied with Xu Yiyu.
"Sister, is Box 6 reserved by father for Xu Yiyu and the others?"
Seeing Zhou Fu walk into Box No. 2 belonging to the Zhou family, Zhou Zhiyu tentatively asked his usually mild-tempered second sister. His tone was filled with curiosity, without revealing any of his little thoughts.
"Yes, my father and several uncles of the family reserved this box for Chairman Xu a long time ago to show their respect and appreciation for her."
Zhou Zhishan knew very well why his younger sister was curious about this, but he did not hide anything and just told her everything he knew.
"Little sister, it's good that father has lifted your house arrest today, but you should also understand that if you don't perform well at today's auction, or if you cause father to get into trouble with people he doesn't want to offend because of your own selfishness, I'm afraid your house arrest will have to be extended indefinitely."
Of course, Zhou Zhishan's suggestive words were meant for this clever little sister. Although Zhou Zhiyu usually had a bad reputation in the circle, as a member of the Zhou family, she still knew what was right and wrong. After listening to what her second sister said, she immediately nodded obediently to Zhou Zhishan, and there was no sign of any mischief on her face.
"Zhi Yu, you should know what this auction means to father and the other three family heads. Your eldest brother and I don't care what you think, but you'd better just think about it. If you put it into action, you'd better weigh the consequences of the action in advance and don't resent father and us afterwards."
Zhou Zhishan gave the girl his most benevolent reminder, and without caring how much the girl had listened to, he pushed her into Box No. 2 and sat her down, and then he said nothing more.
Zhou Zhiyu secretly glanced at his father Zhou Fu and his second sister Zhou Zhishan, and seeing that their expressions were sincere and they had no intention of joking with him at all, he immediately and tactfully suppressed all the inappropriate thoughts in his heart to the deepest part, not daring to touch them again.
She understood that although her father did not say much when he lifted her house arrest, her second sister's words today clearly represented her father's opinion and were also an ultimatum to her, the youngest daughter who was always a cause for concern.
The next second, Zhou Zhiyu straightened his sitting posture and cast his gaze towards the ordinary seats downstairs that were gradually filling up, and his eyes never turned away.
After Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi sat down in Box No. 6, they began to leisurely enjoy snacks and tea as usual. It seemed that their mode was no different from the spectator mode in the past few days.
But this is just appearance.
Xu Yiyu knew that during today's auction there might be more than one item that had not appeared in the exhibition areas of Longtengju in the past few days, and the value might not be lower than the dragon head she had bought before.
If she and Lu Sanshi were just leisurely spectators in the past two days, today they were hunters ready to strike. As long as they saw the object they liked, they would start hunting mode at any time.
Xu Yiyu took out the mask from her wide sleeves and gently placed it on the small mahogany table beside her. She also took out the electronic bidding device that had been with her for five days from the other sleeve and held it in her hand with seemingly light force.
Come on, let her see what good stuff will happen today.
