Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Don’t Mess with This Woman!_1

"Today’s auction is bustling, Miss Lu, as the host, must be pretty busy. I see that Miss Fang is free, so let’s have her show me around,"

Su Chengyu’s words delighted Fang Yue inwardly, thinking it was good that this fellow finally recognized the situation.

However, she actually felt a bit nervous just now, insecure, considering Su Chengyu had been somewhat indifferent to her all along.

Lu Yunxi also felt slightly disappointed but maintained a polite smile, "It’s all up to you then, Miss Fang. Mr. Su is our honored guest, so please don’t neglect him."

"He’s my savior. I won’t neglect him, there’s no need for you to remind me," Fang Yue retorted.

As she said this, she pulled Su Chengyu into the auction hall.

"Mr. Su chose Miss Fang to accompany him, could it be that he’s quite close to the Fang family? Or maybe Mr. Su fancies Miss Fang," Chen Yuanheng wondered.

"Fang Yue is a well-known widow, her reputation isn’t good, I don’t think Mr. Su would like her," Lu Yunxi said.

"Maybe not. Mr. Su might have different preferences than others. Yun Xi, what do you think of Mr. Su? Is he a good match for you?" Chen Yuanheng asked.

"It’s my first encounter with him, it’s hard to judge. However, he’s just someone else’s puppet after all. He doesn’t have much ability, so he’s not good enough for me. If he even considers a widow, that would make me look down on him even more."

Although Lu Yunxi did show respect to Su Chengyu, and even actively approached him, it was all superficial. As the daughter of Jiangdong’s richest man and a businesswoman, she has high standards and didn’t yet take Su Chengyu very seriously.

"You, with your standards so high in the clouds, none of the young talents in Jiangdong can catch your eyes," Chen Yuanheng shook his head, knowing Lu Yunxi’s pride.

"That’s because none of them are good enough; of course, they can’t catch my eye," Lu Yunxi proudly said.

"But even though Su Cheng seems to be close to the Fang family, he didn’t choose to cooperate with them, he chose us," Lu Yunxi wondered.

"The Fang family’s influence is mainly in politics, they’re incomparable to us in the business world. Mr. Su’s goal is to collect medicinal ingredients, which we excel at compared to the Fang family. But we can’t offend Mr. Su, otherwise, he could choose to work with the Fang family at any time," Chen Yuanheng analyzed.

This is the exclusive venue for Hengtong Auction, with three floors. The first floor is for regular seats, each attendee is given a seat number upon entry.

The second and third floors are VIP areas, separated by one-way privacy glass. From the inside, one can see the entire venue, but the outside cannot see in.

Only those of a certain status in Jiangdong have the qualifications to enter the VIP area. The VIP seats are not fixed, VIP guests wishing to attend the auction have to make a reservation in advance, until all the seats are taken.

The main hall on the first floor accommodates the most attendees, who have almost filled it up by now, all discussing amongst themselves in whispers.

"Thank you earlier, for not making me lose face in front of Lu Yunxi," Fang Yue said.

"I just felt sorry for you, worried that if I didn’t pick you, you would burst into tears," Su Chengyu said indifferently.

"You...your mouth is just as annoying as another Su I know, so annoying," Fang Yue grumbled angrily.

"Which Su?" Su Chengyu asked.

"I don’t want to mention him, he’s a scumbag, a bastard," Fang Yue snorted coldly.

Teasingly, Su Chengyu said, "You’re badmouthing him like this? Did he sleep with you and then dump you?"

"Absolutely not! What kind of person do you think I am? I hate him, I would rather die than have any association with such a vile man," Fang Yue explained in exasperation.

Su ChengYu snorted, privately blaming Fang Yue for being so ungrateful. Her past gratitude for his lifesaving action seemed to have been completely forgotten.

The reason Su ChengYu chose Fang Yue was because he saw through Lu Yunxi’s ulterior motives. He deliberately made this choice to let Chen Yuanheng know that he could not only collaborate with the Lu family in Jiangyang but also with the Fang family.

Su Chengyu smiled and didn’t comment. Fang Yue introduced him to the auction venue, its situation, and rules.

As Fang Yue was speaking, she suddenly intertwined her arm with Su Chengyu’s, giving off a sweet aura. Su Chengyu was taken aback, "What are you doing? Did you take the wrong medication?"

"Don’t move, help me," Fang Yue whispered.

At this moment, three people walked over. One of the women said, "Miss Fang is also here for the auction... I suppose you’re interested in the Eternal-youth Pill?"

"Is that any of your concern?"" Fang Yue coldly retorted.

Obviously, Fang Yue didn’t get along well with this woman.

"Of course not, I just kindly wanted to remind you that the Eternal-youth Pill is of no use for you. You can’t get married again, so what’s the point of preserving your youthful looks? No matter how beautiful you are, what man would dare to take you – a ’husband-killer’?"" The woman’s words were extremely malicious, causing laughter from the people around them.

Fang Yue’s infamous reputation as a ’husband-killer’ indeed attracted much criticism.

Fang Yue’s face darkened, she angrily retorted, "My marital status is none of your business, Miss Hou. Even if I don’t marry, I keep myself clean, unlike some people who are frivolous and have a reputation for promiscuity."

This was Hou Keyi, the daughter of the Hou family in Jiangyang, a distant cousin of Hou Kexin. She was indeed a beauty.

In the past, Hou Keyi had actively pursued Fang Yue’s second husband, who ignored her advances and passionately pursued Fang Yue, eventually marrying her.

This led Hou Keyi to harbor a grudge against Fang Yue. Whenever they met, she would always mock and ridicule Fang Yue.

"You wish to live loose, but sadly no man would want to touch you. It’s pitiful!"

The two were old rivals instinctively reacting to each other, exchanging verbal shots.

"Well... that’s why you’re so assertive today, you’ve got a man by your side."

Hou Keyi carefully observed Su Chengyu. Noting his tall stature and fine looks, she felt uncomfortable, secretly cursing Fang Yue for always having excellent men by her side because of her good figure and beauty.

Comparing the men beside her and Fang Yue, she realized that not just their status, but even their physical appearance and charisma were on completely different levels!

While men choose women for their appearances, the same is true for women choosing men.

Fang Yue nestled close to Su Chengyu, wearing a smile and retorted, "I choose quality over quantity when it comes to men. Unlike you, who takes anything that moves. I really admire you for that."

Hou Keyi’s face soured. She darted her eyes and warned Su Chengyu, "You seem new here. I would like to remind you, you shouldn’t judge some women by their looks. You shouldn’t get involved with the woman beside you."

"Why not?" Su Chengyu asked indifferently.

"It seems you don’t know. She’s been married twice, and her previous two husbands all died unexpectedly. Everyone in Jiangyang knows that Fang Yue is a ’husband-killer.’ Any man who gets involved with her doesn’t end well," Hou Keyi announced loudly.

If she could humiliate and separate them publicly, making Fang Yue embarrassed, Hou Keyi would be extremely satisfied.

Su Chengyu turned to Fang Yue and asked, "Is that true?"

Fang Yue was in a rut, her face turning increasingly bitter. She internally cursed at Hou Keyi’s maliciousness. If Su Chengyu turned against her right now, she would inevitably become a laughingstock.

And from Su Chengyu’s attitude towards her, it was entirely possible he could do such a thing.

Fang Yue felt an overwhelming embarrassment and didn’t dare to reply. She didn’t know how to respond, and it was as though she had shot herself in the foot. The situation was incredibly awkward.
