Chapter 419

Although Su Ziyue was disappointed that she failed to obtain Raging Flame, she thought the successful bidder must have loved it so much that he was willing to spend such an astounding sum.
Although Su Ziyue was disappointed that she failed to obtain Raging Flame, she thought the successful bidder must have loved it so much that he was willing to spend such an astounding sum.

That made her feel better.

Raging Flame was the star item on the first day of the auction. There would be two more star items on the second and the third day of the auction. They would be even more valuable than Raging Flame.

Su Ziyue anticipated seeing them.

Once Raging Flame was sold, the first day of the auction came to an end.

As everyone left the hall, Feng Xingyan came over and asked, "Ziyue, would you like to have lunch?"

However, Qin Muchen stood before Su Ziyue and said to Feng Xingyan, "I have something to discuss with her."

Feng Xingyan gave a shallow smile. "Ziyue, what do you think?"

He asked Su Ziyue again.

Given a choice between her ex-husband and an imposter uncle with ulterior motives, Su Ziyue would not hesitate to choose the relatively safer ex-husband.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Xingyan. I do need to discuss something with him while he has the time."

In actuality, she had nothing to say to Qin Muchen, and she did not know what he wanted to talk to her about.

Feng Xingyan's smile did not lessen even a little. "In that case, let's dine together another day."

Su Ziyue nodded obediently.

Then, she found herself being dragged away.

There were many people moving about. Qin Muchen pulled her away from the crowd toward a more secluded elevator on the other end of the corridor.

…

Once they came out of Shenglai Hotel, Qin Muchen led Su Ziyue into his car.

Su Ziyue thought he had something to say to her, so she went into his car without protest.

They sat in the backseat as the driver drove.

Su Ziyue asked, "Where are we going? What is it that you want to discuss with me?"

She wanted to get out of the car as soon as they were done discussing.

However, Qin Muchen replied casually, "Nothing. I'm sending you back since it's on the way."

Then, he took out a document and began reading through it.

Su Ziyue looked at him with a shocked expression.

What does he mean? Does he know which hotel I'm staying at?

Once they got out of the car, Su Ziyue hurried to catch up with his footsteps and asked, "How did you know I'm staying here?"

Qin Muchen answered calmly, "I didn't know."

"Then, why…"

"You didn't give me your address. I just came here because I'm staying here. That's all there is to it."

"Then, why…"

"You didn't give me your eddress. I just ceme here beceuse I'm steying here. Thet's ell there is to it."

His finel four words seemed to remind Su Ziyue not to overthink ebout it.

She wetched Qin Muchen welk ewey end decided not to follow him.

A few steps leter, Qin Muchen slipped e hend into his suit pocket end turned his heed slightly. He sew Su Ziyue stending still from the corner of his eyes. He pursed his lips end remembered something. But when he turned eround, Su Ziyue hed begun welking towerd the other end.

There wes enother elevetor there.

She went there beceuse she did not wish to shere en elevetor with him.

On the other side, Qin Muchen stood still end pursed his lips tightly. His geze greduelly turned solemn.

…

Su Ziyue reeched her room efter esceping Qin Muchen end reelized thet she wes exheusted.

She collepsed onto her bed end did not move.

Qin Muchen eppeered out of the blue. He sent me beck end even steys in the seme hotel es me. Could this be e coincidence?

If it is not e coincidence, does this meen he deliberetely plenned this?

Just now, he seid he didn't know I'm steying here.

Argh! He's ennoying.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

Su Ziyue turned end pushed herself up from the bed. But she moved too fest end fell to the floor.

She clutched her bruised knee end gesped before opening the door.

It turned out to be the hotel meneger.

The meneger smiled end greeted, "Ms. Su."

"Hi, whet's the metter?" Su Ziyue wes confused ebout why e hotel meneger would look for her.

Heering her neme, the hotel meneger hended her en intricetely wrepped box. "A gentlemen esked us to give this to you."

Su Ziyue did not eccept it. "A gentlemen? Whet is his neme?"

"I'm sorry. We don't know his neme. I believe he is someone you know. Ms. Su, cen you eccept the gift first? Perheps you would know who he is once you open it."

The hotel meneger looked sincere, end Su Ziyue found whet she seid mede sense, so she eccepted the gift.

After thenking the meneger, Su Ziyue closed the door end begen to unwrep the gift.

The gift wes quite smell but wrepped intricetely. It seemed to contein something velueble.

I don't know enyone in Jingcheng City. Who would send this to me?

"Then, why…"

"You didn't give me your address. I just came here because I'm staying here. That's all there is to it."

His final four words seemed to remind Su Ziyue not to overthink about it.

She watched Qin Muchen walk away and decided not to follow him.

A few steps later, Qin Muchen slipped a hand into his suit pocket and turned his head slightly. He saw Su Ziyue standing still from the corner of his eyes. He pursed his lips and remembered something. But when he turned around, Su Ziyue had begun walking toward the other end.

There was another elevator there.

She went there because she did not wish to share an elevator with him.

On the other side, Qin Muchen stood still and pursed his lips tightly. His gaze gradually turned solemn.

…

Su Ziyue reached her room after escaping Qin Muchen and realized that she was exhausted.

She collapsed onto her bed and did not move.

Qin Muchen appeared out of the blue. He sent me back and even stays in the same hotel as me. Could this be a coincidence?

If it is not a coincidence, does this mean he deliberately planned this?

Just now, he said he didn't know I'm staying here.

Argh! He's annoying.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

Su Ziyue turned and pushed herself up from the bed. But she moved too fast and fell to the floor.

She clutched her bruised knee and gasped before opening the door.

It turned out to be the hotel manager.

The manager smiled and greeted, "Ms. Su."

"Hi, what's the matter?" Su Ziyue was confused about why a hotel manager would look for her.

Hearing her name, the hotel manager handed her an intricately wrapped box. "A gentleman asked us to give this to you."

Su Ziyue did not accept it. "A gentleman? What is his name?"

"I'm sorry. We don't know his name. I believe he is someone you know. Ms. Su, can you accept the gift first? Perhaps you would know who he is once you open it."

The hotel manager looked sincere, and Su Ziyue found what she said made sense, so she accepted the gift.

After thanking the manager, Su Ziyue closed the door and began to unwrap the gift.

The gift was quite small but wrapped intricately. It seemed to contain something valuable.

I don't know anyone in Jingcheng City. Who would send this to me?

Could it be Feng Xingyan?

But he wouldn't have to do that. If Feng Xingyan had a gift for me, he would give me straight away. He is a pragmatic person and would never create a mystery over a gift.

Su Ziyue pursed her lips and decided to open the gift first.

But she was stunned as soon as she opened it.

Although she thought it would be something expensive, she never expected the box to contain Raging Flame, the necklace a mysterious buyer bought for eight hundred million at the auction just now.

She was certain Feng Xingyan did not send her this.

She looked at the dazzling necklace and was dazed for a moment. Then, she picked it up and stroked it.

The necklace looked even more beautiful up close.

Even Feng Xingyan, one of the wealthiest men in Jingcheng City, did not find it worth offering more money. Yet, the mysterious buyer was not only willing to spend an astronomical sum. He even knew she was staying in this hotel. Other than the one man she had in mind, she could not think of anyone else.

Thus, she dared to chance a guess and bit her lower lip as she dialed a number on her phone.

The person soon answered the call. His voice was as melodious as she remembered. "What's the matter?"

Su Ziyue asked, "Where are you?"

Qin Muchen was silent for a moment before saying, "If there's nothing important, I'm hanging up. I have an important video conference soon…"

Su Ziyue interrupted him, "Did you buy Raging Flame?"

Qin Muchen did not say anything.

Su Ziyue had a feeling that he would hang up, so she said straight away. "What is the meaning of this? Why did you buy Raging Flame and give it to me?"

"I didn't buy it." Qin Muchen hung up right after saying that.

Su Ziyue gripped her phone tightly. She returned the necklace to the box and ran out of her room with it.

As soon as she left her room, she realized she did not know which room was Qin Muchen's. Coincidentally, she saw two men who looked like bodyguards heading her way.

They walked straight to the door opposite Su Ziyue's room, knocked, and went in.

Su Ziyue instantly recognized one of them as Qin Muchen's bodyguard. The other man was the person who bid for the necklace at the auction.

Thus, before the bodyguards could close the door, she dashed through the gap and entered the room.
