After Duan Ya left the private room, Liu Yun couldn't help but ask, "Sister Lin, who is this Duan Ya? I think your relationship with him is quite unusual. You two wouldn't happen to be..."

Lin Shu noticed the gossip gleam in Liu Yun's eyes and glared at her irritably. "What are you thinking? He and I are just friends of many years. Stop with your baseless speculations."

Liu Yun lowered her head and pondered, "Sister Lin, have you finally let go of... Su Wenyang?"

She spoke with extreme caution when she uttered the name 'Su Wenyang'.

Many years ago, after dropping out of school, she met Lin Shu by chance. At that time, Lin Shu had not yet met Su Wenyang, so she was a witness to the relationship between Lin Shu and Su Wenyang.

Liu Yun clearly saw how much Lin Shu had sacrificed in this relationship. Lin Shu even left her family and gave up her right to be the heir for Su Wenyang. However, Su Wenyang later had an affair, which led to the breakdown of their relationship.

Although Liu Yun had not seen Lin Shu for many years, she had been paying close attention to what was happening in Jingchuan. When she learned that Su Wenyang had cheated on her, she was so angry that she almost went to Jingchuan to castrate him.

In the past, Lin Shu's expression would have changed somewhat when she heard the name Su Wenyang.

Since she overcame that mental hurdle, she has completely moved on from that failed marriage.

Upon hearing Liu Yun's question, Lin Shu smiled calmly, "Does that scumbag even deserve my lingering affection?"

"It would be best if you thought of it that way."

Liu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, the huge weight in her heart slowly lifted, and said half-jokingly, "That Su Wenyang has no idea what he missed. If he knew your true identity, he would regret it to the core."

"he knows."

"what?"

Liu Yun's eyes widened instantly.

Lin Shu spoke in a very indifferent tone, as if she were talking about a trivial matter. "After I had Xiao Mo, I revealed my identity. Unfortunately, even so, he was still blinded by the bright lights and bustling city."

"Of course, I didn't explain the Lin family's power to him in detail, otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to cheat on me."

Liu Yun nodded secretly, "Actually, this is good too. At least we've seen that guy's true colors."

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Lin Mo, who was standing behind An Youyu, and she revealed an extremely sexy smile, "Although you have Su Wenyang's blood in your veins, you should keep your distance from him; that guy is no good."

Lin Mo smiled slightly but did not respond.

Lin Shu waved her hand, "Alright, don't worry about this. This child hates Su Wenyang even more than I do."

Liu Yun smiled with satisfaction, "That's right."

As they were talking, the LCD screen on the wall in front of the four of them suddenly lit up. The screen showed an auction stage, and a slender young woman walked slowly onto the stage. Her beautiful features and exquisite black dress made her very pleasing to the eye.

"It's about to begin."

Just as Liu Yun said those words, the door to the private room opened, and a young girl dressed in a light green cheongsam walked in.

The young woman bowed respectfully to Liu Yun, saying, "Bank Manager."

Liu Yun nodded and introduced, "This is Qin Xuan, one of our top auctioneers. At the auction, each private room will be assigned a guide to explain the information about the items to be auctioned and to teach guests how to use the bidding machine to place bids."

An Youyu looked puzzled. "Sister Yun, isn't there an auctioneer on stage?"

Liu Yun explained, "There are quite a few items up for auction, so the auctioneer only introduces the general information about each item, while the guides in the private boxes provide detailed explanations during the bidding process."

While the two were talking, Qin Xuan couldn't help but glance at An Youyu.

Although it is said that like repels like and opposites attract, An Youyu's beauty has clearly broken this conventional understanding. Regardless of age or gender, people who see her will be involuntarily attracted.

"cough--"

Upon hearing the bank manager's cough, Qin Xuan realized her lapse in composure and quickly placed the three bidding devices on the table. She then taught the three how to use them.

The so-called bidding device is square, about the size of a cigarette box, and has five buttons on it.

Each button is engraved with a number: one, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand!

Of course, as the premier auction house in the Xia Kingdom, Qingyao Auction House auctions items that are not ordinary, so the unit of measurement here is not "pieces", but "ten thousand"!

Pressing the button marked with the character '个' means adding 10,000 to the price, and so on.

An Youyu was initially very excited, but after listening to Qin Xuan's explanation, she was so frightened that she immediately handed the bidding device in her hand to Lin Mo behind her.

Lin Mo walked around the sofa and shamelessly sat down next to An Youyu.

The sofa space is not large; it's just right for three people, but it feels a bit crowded for four.

It's hot, so we're wearing relatively light clothing.

Through the thin two layers of clothing, An Youyu could clearly feel a burning heat. Her heart began to race uncontrollably, and she blushed as she pointed to the single sofa to the side.

"You can sit there too..."

Chapter 271 Big Breasts, No Brains!

"You can sit there too..."

The implication was that Lin Mo should get out of the way.

But will Lin Mo get up?

of course not!

"It's more convenient to watch the auction from here."

Lin Mo's words conveyed the same meaning.

He's going to sit here!

In contrast to the intense heat that An Youyu felt, his feelings were quite the opposite.

For some reason, An Youyu's body felt very cold. Even through two layers of clothing, he could still feel a cool sensation when he touched An Youyu's shoulder and arm.

Lin Mo was already used to this.

During this time, he held the girl's hand quite often, and no matter how high the temperature was, her hand was always cold.

Seeing Lin Mo's resolute attitude, An Youyu's eyebrows furrowed.

If it were just her and Lin Mo here, perhaps she wouldn't feel anything.

But now, besides her and Lin Mo, there were also Lin Shu, Liu Yun, and Qin Xuan who had just arrived. Standing next to Lin Mo in front of the three of them, her face grew increasingly red.

Just as she was about to get up and sit to the side, she felt a hot, enveloping sensation on her left hand. Looking down, she saw that Lin Mo had silently taken her hand.

"I'll sit over there, it's too crowded here."

"Need not."

As he spoke, Lin Mo looked to the other side of An Youyu, where her mother and Liu Jun were sitting.

When the two noticed Lin Mo's gaze, they immediately understood and began to assist him.

Lin Shu nudged Liu Jun's shoulder with a look of disdain, "You've grown up and you still sit next to me. Do you know what it means to feel hurt without comparison?"

Liu Yun's lips twitched subtly.

Is it going to be this fierce right from the start?

I may want to, but we still need to play this teamwork game.

She spread her hands, her expression full of smugness, "Is it my fault that you're small?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Shu's front, her meaning all too clear.

The conversation between the two elicited varying expressions from the other three people in the private room.

Qin Xuan was surprised.

An Youyu was puzzled.

Lin Mo could only manage a wry smile.

In his opinion, the two of them could have just made up any excuse, why did they have to bring up this kind of thing?

An Youyu tentatively asked, "Auntie, what are you and Sister Yun talking about?"

Lin Shu noticed the confusion in An Youyu's eyes, so she decided to be even more direct in her performance, "I didn't say anything, I just think she's a bit big-breasted and brainless."

Upon hearing this, An Youyu froze on the spot.

Big breasts and no brains?

She glanced at Liu Jun as if possessed, her lips parted and closed, her expression incredibly complex.

As for Lin Mo, he simply closed his eyes and covered his ears.

It's best to ignore this kind of confrontation.

Hearing Lin Shu's evaluation of her, Liu Yun laughed instead of getting angry, her smile full of smugness. "In my opinion, 'big breasts and no brains' is not a derogatory term, but a compliment. Do you want to be brainless? Do you have the conditions?"

"I bother!"

Lin Shu got up and sat on the other side of the single sofa. "Don't sit so close to me. Go sit across from me."

As Liu Yun stood up, she teased with a smile, "Sister Lin, are you angry out of embarrassment? But what I said is true. Even if you don't like to hear it, the truth is the truth, whether you admit it or not."

Lin Shu glared angrily, "What facts?"

"You're too young."

As soon as she said that, Liu Yun sat down opposite Lin Shu, who coldly uttered two words, "Shut up!"

Thus, the bickering came to a perfect end.

The two worked together flawlessly; if Lin Mo hadn't been the instigator, he probably wouldn't have noticed the flaw.

It has to be said that women are indeed natural-born actresses at times.

Qin Xuan belatedly realized what was happening, and a smile appeared on her lips.

After Lin Shu and Liu Yun stopped arguing, An Youyu cautiously advised, "Auntie, Sister Yun; people are born the way they are. Although hard work can change some things, the general shape still depends on what you are born with. It's not worth hurting your relationship by arguing about this."

She was naive, a complete opposite of the other four.

At the crucial moment, Lin Shu used a clever excuse to back down, saying, "Fish, for your sake, I won't stoop to the level of this big-breasted, brainless woman."

Liu Yun smiled and nodded in agreement, saying, "That's right. For Youyu's sake, I won't hold it against you."

The two's back-and-forth banter almost made Lin Mo, who was in the audience, lose his composure. He coughed lightly and said, "Um... as an elder, you should be careful with your words in front of juniors like me and Yu'er. Don't just blurt out any random words."

"Hey, you little ingrate, if it weren't for..."

Lin Shu stopped mid-sentence, realizing she had almost let something slip, and quickly added, "I'll be more careful next time."
