Chapter 530 - The Auction That Garnered The Attention Of The City (1/2)
Liu Wanxin held the warm hand of her son. She had a bright smile on her face as she said, “Ah Chen, Mummy is fine. You can go and get busy with your work, Men have their careers to attend to; Mummy would not drag you down. Your father was an accountant, and now, you are able to carve your own career in the finance sector. You are way more powerful compared to your father, your father would be so happy to know that in Heaven.
“Furthermore, our Ah Chen has grown up so fast! He is already 28 this year. You have to meet a girlfriend and get married. Mummy would not be so tactless and disturb you. You can go and live the life of a youngster, as long as you would let Mummy carry a fat grandchild soon.”
Yin Muchen listened to her words and had a plain smile on his face. Did she want him to have a child?
He had never thought about that.
He did not like young children,and never planned on being a father.
Liu Wanxin was really happy as she said, “Xiao Qing.” She stretched her hand out to hold the hand of a beautiful girl by her side, “Ah Chen, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Qing. Mummy has to thank Xiao Qing for taking care of me for so many years. Xiao Qing’s mother pa.s.sed away some time ago, and this young girl always came over to chat with me and make me happy. I want to recognize her as my G.o.ddaughter.”
Yin Muchen lifted his head up to have a look at Xiao Qing. He did not have much emotion as he said, “Mum, as long as you are happy, everything you do is fine.”
“Yes, yes, Mummy is happy.” As she spoke, Liu Wanxin looked in the direction Xiao Qing was standing in. “Xiao Qing, in the future, Ah Chen will be your G.o.d brother. Our Ah Chen is handsome right? At that time, he was not even 18 years old, and the young ladies that were writing love letters to him could fill entire streets.”
Xiao Qing snuck a peek as she lifted her head up to glance at Yin Muchen. Her heartbeat accelerated, and her small face was red. In her entire life, she had never seen such a handsome man like Yin Muchen.
He did not say much, and he just looked at her in the eye briefly just now. He could be considered to be reserved and silent, but he had the aura of a successful and rich man. His simple dress s.h.i.+rt and trousers accentuated his tall and lanky figure. A secretary appeared in the villa to ask for his approval regarding a doc.u.ment. He placed one of his hands in his pocket as he left her. With his deep, clean hairline, he looked mighty like an emperor.
She admired him very much.
Xiao Qing shyly covered her mouth to smile, “G.o.dma, Older Brother is really very… Handsome…but Older Brother merely inherited G.o.dma’s looks. When G.o.dma was younger, you were also a beauty..”
Liu Wanxin quickly broke out into a smile. She pretended to be displeased as she said, “Xiao Qing, you are the only one with sweet mouth…”
Yin Muchen heard the sound of his mother laughing, and he felt satisfied. His mother has suffered for ten whole years, and all is well as long as she is happy now.
At this moment, a melodious ringtone rang out in the air. He was receiving a call.
He took his phone out of his pocket, and he glanced at the screen.
It was from the Yin residence.
He stood up and said, “Mum, I have to go and take a call.”
“Yeah, yeah, Ah Chen, you can go and get busy.”
…
Yin Muchen stood on the balcony, and the cool breeze in the summer’s day blew onto his light blue s.h.i.+rt as it puffed up in the wind. He placed his left hand in his pocket and used his right hand to press the b.u.t.ton as he took the call.
“h.e.l.lo…”
The other end was very silent. It was so quiet that he could not hear the sound of the girl’s breathing. She was silent for three seconds, and the girl’s hoa.r.s.e voice came over from the other end. “You, can you help my father?”
Yin Muchen listened on as he raised his eyebrows up without saying a word.
“You, are you unwilling to do so? If that is the case, I will beg you right now. I am begging you. Please help my father. Are you willing to do so?”
The man still did not say anything.
The living room in the villa was all dark, and the lights were not switched on. The girl wore mustard yellow pajamas as she sat down on the sofa. She blinked her long, thick eyelashes as the tears in her eyes flowed down her face.
“My mother has already…pa.s.sed away. I do not have a mother anymore. I cannot afford to also lose my father. I do not want my father to go to prison. I would become an orphan… I am afraid. I am really scared… I am begging you. Help me, okay? I know that throughout these years, my parents have not treated you well enough. I am apologizing to you on behalf of them…”
“Shuiling,” Yin Muchen pursed his thin lips lightly as he spat out the word, “Sorry.”
He was not willing.
His rejection was so clean and direct, and it was also cruel at the same time.
Yin Shuiling’s heart was stabbed painfully. If this was happening three years ago, she might have acted cutely towards him, but in these three years, the distance between them grew, and there was already a huge gap between the both of them.
He was way too cold towards her over the past three years.
Just like a few days ago inside the car, he pushed her away like that and asked her, “to cry somewhere else,” and he even said that she was “dirty”…
It was only then that she found out that he actually could be so harsh and cold.
Three years, and in a blink of an eye, the relations.h.i.+p between him and her had already progressed to this stage.
“Okay, I got it.” She nodded her head and hung up calmly.
…
Three days later
In the largest auction house in T City
It was the location where the rich and most famous people held an auction that would stir up the interest of everyone in the city, and they were going to auction a girl off.
T City’s little Princess, Yin Shuiling.
