The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage - Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Shouldn’t Use The Name of Jiang Family

The sound of the guqin reverberated high and low like big and small beads moving around in a jade plate, immersing others in its beautiful rhythm.

When Jiang Xuecheng said he wanted to buy Fengqiwu, Su Wan lost her mood in admiring the music.

Su Wan quickly shook her hand and said hastily, “No, thank you. I don’t know how to play the guqin. It would be a waste if we buy it.”

Jiang Xuecheng narrowed his eyes. He glanced at Su Wan and shook the auction machine at her.

“I’ve started bidding for it. You may place it at home or bury it for your mother.”

Su Wan was taken aback and there was a faint ripple in her beautiful eyes. She knew Jiang Xuecheng well, nothing would stop him if he wanted to do something.

Su Wan looked down and was silent for a while. Then, she murmured, “It’s a pity to bury such a good guqin but if it’s placed at home, it’ll gather dust…”

Jiang Xuecheng darted her a look faintly and shook his head softly. Then, he didn’t speak but occasionally keyed in some numbers on the auction machine.

Since Jiang Xuecheng insisted to bid for Fengqiwu, Su Wan’s heart lifted. She looked at the rising price nervously on the screen and secretly wished that no one would be interested in this guqin.

Fengqiwu’s price kept rising but there weren’t as many guqin enthusiasts as there were for other items. When the price rose up to forty million dollars, there were only a few people left bidding for it.

The musician had left. Helena touched the strings of guqin and her smile brightened.

“2071 is bidding forty-one million dollars. Does anyone want to raise the price?”

In recent years, the number of people in Jiuzhou who could play the guqin had continuously decreased and the guqin auction market was also shrinking.

The record of highest transaction price of guqin in the world was only sixty million dollars but although that guqin was also belonged to royals, it was not as old as Fengqiwu.

No matter what, it was considered satisfactory for Fengqiwu to rise up to forty-one million dollars today.

When Helena’s voice died down, the screen suddenly showed fifty million dollars.

There was an uproar all around. Others increased the bidding price by a hundred each time but this person was too arrogant to increase it by ten million dollars at one go.

When everyone looked carefully, they realized that the person who raised the price was the person from Room 1311 who had just sold the imperial green jade. It was clear to everyone that 1311 had experienced a windfall a while ago and feeling happy, was being generous!

Helena saw the numbers on the screen and she smiled. They might be able to break the sales record of guqin today.

“1311 bids fifty million dollars, does anyone wish to raise the price?”

2071 was obviously in love with Fengqiwu. 50.1 million suddenly appeared on the screen.

However, just when the number appeared, it was very quickly covered by sixty million.

Number 1311 appeared behind the figure sixty million. Everyone in the auction house understood that 1311 didn’t want to drag further with the raising of price. They were afraid that 1311 wanted to get this guqin without fail.

After the appearance of sixty million, the numbers on the screen stopped for a minute. Helena decided to stop at the right time.

After all, the price was in line with the highest transaction record of guqin in the past.

Just when Helena was about to drop the hammer, suddenly 60.1 million popped up on the screen and the room number behind it was 2071!

Now, everyone in the auction room was whispering. Was 2071 opposing 1311?

Everyone’s hearts were as if seized by a huge invisible hand. They wanted to see if 1311 would raise another ten million the way they had just a while ago.

Jiang Xuecheng had naturally not disappointed them and pressed the seventy million button.

Gosh, it had really broken the highest trading record of guqin!

Helena looked at the shocking price and her smile was brighter. She definitely didn’t mind high prices but she wondered if 2071 would fight for it.

Under the expectation of many, the numbers on the screen remained unchanged for a long time. Again, when Helena was about to announce the deal, 70.1 million leapt into the screen.

Everyone sighed. The torturous way of raising the price by 2071 was not as generous as 1311.

Su Wan who was sitting on the sofa frowned. She kept thinking 2071 was against them.

Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng hesitantly, “Xuecheng, how about letting it go?”

A smile appeared on Jiang Xuecheng’s face. He took a sip of red wine, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”

As he spoke, Jiang Xuecheng put down his red wine and took up the auction machine and keyed in some numbers.

Before Su Wan shifted her eyes back to the screen, she heard Helena exclaiming in disbelief, “1311 has raised the price to one hundred million dollars. Does anyone wish to raise the bid?”

The entire auction house was boiling. Everyone was wondering if 2071 would increase the price by a hundred. However, when Helena dropped the hammer, 2071 still had no response.

“1311 has successfully bid for Fengqiwu. Congratulations, 1311!”

Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng in shock. She let out a sigh of relief, “Thank goodness 2071 gave up or it would never end.”

Jiang Xuecheng smiled irrefutably and deep in his eyes, no one could guess what he was really thinking.

Suddenly, the phone in Room 1311 rang. Su Wan picked up the phone and heard a gentle female voice.

“Hello, are you the one who bought Fengqiwu? I’m from Room 2071. I really like the Guqin, that’s why I called.”

That voice…

Su Wan’s smile froze. It turned out that the person from Room 2071 was Sheng An’ning. She took a glance at Jiang Xuecheng, who was sitting quietly on the velvet sofa, and she remained silent.

On the other end of the phone, Sheng An’ning saw that Su Wan did not speak and she sounded more urgent.

“I’m willing to buy it for the original price plus a sea view villa. I believe you’ve heard about the Jiang family? I…”

Without waiting for Sheng An’ning to finish her sentence, Su Wan’s eyes turned cold and she ended the call.

Sheng An’ning’s surname was Sheng. Even if she were to marry Jiang Haoxuan in the future, she shouldn’t use the name of the Jiang family to coerce and bribe others.

Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s terrible look and was surprised, “What’s wrong? Who called? Don’t tell me it’s our opponent?”

Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng and replied faintly, “It’s indeed her but you might not have guessed who she is. She’s related to us.”

Jiang Xuecheng’s face changed slightly. It was not difficult to guess. There should only be one girl who was related to them who had a great interest in guqin.

“Sheng An’ning?”

With a load on her mind, she nodded. If Sheng An’ning knew that she and Jiang Xuecheng had bought Fengqiwu, would she come forward to request for it?

Would she come to disturb them from time to time in the name of a guqin lover?
