The Outcast Heiress’s Secret Identities -
Chapter 512 - Chapter 512 0502 is a clumsy person
Chapter 512: 0502 is a clumsy person… Chapter 512: 0502 is a clumsy person… Fu Qiyuan said he was taking Su Ran out to clear her mind, and that meant bringing her to an auction hosted by Sotheby’s.
Sotheby’s, a top global auction house, where any of the auction items are guaranteed to be authentic and provide value for money, not simply inflated in price through speculation.
It’s said that one must have a net worth of at least ten billion to merely qualify for entry into Sotheby’s main events.
Therefore, the main Sotheby’s events have always been places where the true top-tier moguls leisure and play.
This time, the auction held in the country naturally attracted people of high status, including notable figures from the business and political spheres, as well as big names from the entertainment industry.
Although it may not compare to the main events, one certainly needs to have a considerable net worth to qualify for entry, of course, this doesn’t exclude those who attend with a male or female companion.
Other auction organizers might need to find an item each time to serve as a gimmick that catches everyone’s attention, but Sotheby’s doesn’t need to bother.
Just the name Sotheby’s alone draws countless elites.
Not only because Sotheby’s auction house symbolizes status and power, making attendance there elevate one’s own status and attract the gaze of thousands.
But most importantly, because Sotheby’s auction house doesn’t have a single fake, all items are appraised by world-renowned experts.
Thus, bidders only need to consider whether they like the item and whether their wallets can bear the cost, without having to worry about authenticity.
Manderton International Hotel.
An annual grand auction gathering celebrities, the entire venue dazzles with starlight.
Naturally, Sotheby’s allure attracted plenty of high-society daughters and heiresses–who in this world does not love beauty?
With the wedding of Gu Heng and Su Xinyan imminent, getting a unique wedding ring custom-made was definitely out of the question.
So, Gu Heng followed Deng Jingru’s advice and brought Su Xinyan to the auction to take a look.
Since the incident with Chu Ling, Su Xinyan had been laying low for a while; today marked her first public appearance in some time.
Although many felt somewhat nauseated by her oppression of a newcomer, ultimately Meng Weiwei assumed all the blame.
Despite everyone being aware of the situation, they all chose to stay silent.
After all, Su Xinyan was about to become the Gu Family’s young Madam, and naturally, there were many who wanted to curry favor with her.
Because of Su Xinyan’s successive scandals, Chongguang suffered substantial losses, which is why a good number of Chongguang’s artists attended tonight’s auction.
If they could catch the eye of one or two wealthy businessmen, a casual investment would be enough for Chongguang to make a good profit!
Therefore, the women around Su Xinyan dressed ostentatiously, flaunting their figures and charm, immediately drawing the attention of numerous men.
As for Su Xinyan, her makeup was light and subtle, dressed as a high-society lady should be, elegant and stylish, exuding the grace and air of a well-born heiress.
In contrast to the women around her, the difference was stark.
It was like the difference between the clouds and the mud!
“Xinyan, thank you for bringing us to today’s auction!”
“Yes! If it weren’t for Xinyan speaking to President Gu on our behalf, how could we ever attend such a high-class banquet?”
“Not only is Xinyan beautiful, but she also has such a good heart!”
“Indeed, only someone as magnanimous as Xinyan, who’s destined to be the Matriarch of the household, is worthy of the titles of Madam of the Gu Family and the lady boss of Chongguang!”
Su Xinyan tugged at her lips, offering a pale smile that seemed strained and weak, possibly due to her makeup, making her appear forced and fragile.
Her beautiful eyes showed a hint of exhaustion and weariness, and her delicate and pitiable look aroused sympathy.
When the group saw her innocent appearance, they sighed with a mixture of pity and righteous indignation.
“Xinyan is really pitiful; she’s been put through so much recently!”
“Luckily, the storm has already passed, Xinyan, with your strength, you’ll definitely climb back to the peak.”
“Yes, it was clearly the agent’s fault, yet our Xinyan had to take the blame. Those trolls online are really hateful. Xinyan, keep it up, we all believe in you!”
The flattering comments from the group were endless, all intended to compliment Su Xinyan.
At that moment, a woman with a curvaceous figure and brightly-dressed appearance walked over.
She smiled arrogantly at everyone and then affectionately linked arms with Su Xinyan.
Seeing this, the others also politely started to greet her.
“Siya, you’re here!”
“Siya, your outfit looks really nice!”
“Is that Chanel’s latest haute couture? It really suits your style!”
Lin Siya had been the best-developing artist at Chongguang apart from Su Xinyan.
Previously, many of the resources that fell from Su Xinyan had ended up with her, and coupled with her beauty and shrewd tactics, she had recently hooked up with a wealthy businessman.
This businessman spared no expense for her, not only allowing her to bring funds into the production but also making a hefty investment in Chongguang, further solidifying her position there.
Now, Lin Siya’s treatment at Chongguang was second only to Su Xinyan’s.
Moreover, they had heard that the businessman was planning to divorce his current wife and marry Lin Siya, turning her into the lady of a wealthy household, which made those already envious hearts sour with jealousy.
Although they looked down on people of Lin Siya’s background, they also aspired to become someone like her.
If they could successfully marry into a wealthy family, who would want to struggle in the entertainment industry? Not to mention having to accompany those old men every day and still be unable to get good resources–the gap between people, how can it be so large?
“Compared to brands like Chanel, I still prefer the clothes designed by Xinyan, beautiful, luxurious, and meaningful. Unlike some people, barely getting started with their brand and already acting so high and mighty, looking down on everyone, truly a bumpkin who has never seen the world.”
Hearing Lin Siya’s words, the others echoed along.
They couldn’t afford to offend, nor did they dare to provoke the current Lin Siya!
“Ah, speak of the devil, and he shall appear. Isn’t that the bumpkin Su Ran and her ‘country bumpkin’ artists?”
As the group was talking, a considerable commotion came from the entrance. They looked up and saw Su Ran and Chu Ling walking in.
As soon as Su Ran appeared, many people crowded around her, some wanting to collaborate with Qianran International and others inquiring about the flagship store issues.
Apart from wanting to purchase the clothes now considered “national treasures,” they also aimed to become the distributors of the brand.
The brand Queen was the hottest clothing brand in the country at the moment; becoming a distributor and successfully obtaining the authorization to open a branch meant a business opportunity nobody could fail to see!
Hearing the compliments and intentions of these people, Lin Siya’s face turned from green to pale.
The words she had just said now felt like a resounding slap on her own face.
Su Xinyan’s expression also gradually grew colder, biting her teeth hard, the hatred in her eyes towards Su Ran was barely concealable.
However, she still forced herself to stay calm; in such a setting, she absolutely could not act rashly.
