Chapter 412: Either the Huo family or the Nan family
Outside the noisy auction, Shen Lu, who had just arrived at the auction, was walking at the front wearing a black gauze mask, a backless long dress, and high heels.
She heard the noise coming from inside and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked the waiter behind her.
"Why is this auction so lively this year?"
The waiter immediately explained, "Tonight a distinguished guest is lighting a sky lantern. This is the first guest to light a sky lantern in the ten years since our auction was held."
Shen Lu raised her eyebrows, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, "Dare to light a sky lantern at this auction, this guest is really brave and not afraid of death."
Nan Qingqing, who was following Shen Lu, heard this and moved closer to Shen Lu curiously.
"Lawyer Shen, do you know who this distinguished guest is?"
Shen Lu glanced at Nan Qingqing, and seeing her face full of curiosity, she sneered, "People like this who are not afraid of death must be very rich or very powerful. Looking at the entire A City, there are only a handful of such people."
She continued walking forward, "It's either the Huo family or the Nan family."
When Nan Qingqing heard this, her expression changed slightly. When she saw Shen Lu walking away, she quickly came to her senses and followed her.
"Lawyer Shen, it looks like the auction tonight will be very lively."
Shen Lu walked into the box, sat in a high seat arrogantly, and glanced at Box No. 1 where the sky lanterns were lit with disdain.
"This is not lively enough. I'll show you what real liveliness is later."
Nan Qingqing looked at Shen Lu in confusion as he looked excited.
"Lawyer Shen, what are you going to do?"
Shen Lu hooked her finger at her and said, "Qingqing, I see that you are obedient and sensible. Today I will take you to see what excitement is and make you happy."
Nan Qingqing, who had been feeling a little depressed these days, didn't want to go out at all, but today Shen Lu went to Nan's house specially and said she wanted to bring her to play.
She originally wanted to refuse, but Shen Lu didn't give her any chance and forced her to come.
He also told her that there would be many opportunities to take revenge, and tonight was one of them.
Nan Qingqing, who hated Nan Yu and the entire Nan family, followed her without hesitation after hearing this.
Shen Lu pointed to the place next to her and said, "Qingqing, look at the people in the sky lantern box across the street. Do they look familiar?"
Nan Qingqing sat beside her and looked towards Box No. 1 in the distance. She could see the man inside. He looked unruly and difficult to mess with, like a cold-faced King of Hell.
The familiar feeling instantly made her recognize who the other person was.
"That's Nanzhou?!"
Shen Lu drank the tea in her hand and looked at Nan Qingqing with a teachable look.
"Yes, the one lighting the sky lantern tonight is Nanzhou, the fourth son of the Nan family. He said that he would buy all the items tonight as a birthday gift for Nanyu and as compensation for her after all these years."
"Nan Yu..." Hearing the familiar yet harsh name, Nan Qingqing's face burst into hatred.
"When I took over her identity, I didn't see Nanzhou being so nice to me and willing to spend so much money to buy me gifts. Why is it that when it comes to Nanyu, I'm still spending a lot of money to light a sky lantern for her?"
A strong feeling of dissatisfaction made her resent Nanzhou in Box No. 1.
Shen Lu put the tea in her hand on the table and smiled at her.
"Qingqing, have you ever thought that maybe Nanshi was just putting on an act from the beginning?"
Nan Qingqing looked at Shen Lu suddenly and said in disbelief: "Lawyer Shen, what you mean is that Nanzhou knew from the beginning that I was not his biological sister, and he deliberately put on an act for me?"
Shen Lu nodded, "You are not too stupid. It is not too late to know now."
