The Crazy Son-In-Law

In order to avoid more unexpected photos, Xiao Shun did not treat her on the street this time, but went straight back to Pearl International.

After washing up, Song Linger turned from a dirty kitten again into that gorgeous lively young girl she usually was.

The good thing was that she was not injured, and only a few bruises were left. Xiao Shun only used a few needles and she was fine.

“Just leave those people to the cops, OK?” Xiao Shun threw her a bottle of yogurt and said.

“Got it.” Song Linger beamed, then she suddenly seemed to think of something, “Master, why did you suddenly call me today?”

After all, usually, he basically wouldn’t call her except to remind her to pick up herbs from the store.

Xiao Shun then told her about that transfer. “Oh,” Song Linger seemed a little lost and stopped talking.

“Do you know about the upcoming court auction?” Xiao Shun suddenly asked.

“Yes. There is one every year. What’s wrong?”

“Can you get me two invitations?”

Usually, formal auctions require invitations or vouchers, but when Xiao Shun knew about this auction it was too late.

“No problem.” Song Linger said readily.

“When do you need them?”

“Just before the auction.”

…

When Xiao Shun returned home, it was already late afternoon.

He immediately noticed an exquisite invitation on the dining table. He flipped it open and looked at it; it was from Hu Xuesong and Bai Ke.

Yao Cen came out of the kitchen and glanced at him with a cold face, “Your little girlfriend looks quite pretty.”

Xiao Shun was confused for a while before he understood what she said.

Song Linger had sent him back, and her car was so eye-catching that he guessed everyone must have noticed them.

“They just sent this invitation over?” Xiao Shun didn’t deny it and asked directly.

Yao Cen faintly froze. Wasn’t this bastard going to explain?

But she quickly held back her dissatisfaction and said with a helpless face, “They sent it some time ago. Bai Ke even said that I should take you with me.”

“I’m afraid she doesn’t think so now.” Xiao Shun laughed.

“What does that mean?”

“Nothing. By the way, I got two invitations to the auction the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?” Xiao Shun asked.

“What auction?”

Yao Cen asked with a frown, but soon she remembered something. A few days ago, he said that he wanted him to buy Starlight Bio.

“You really want to buy that company? I told you, that won’t work.”

“Just to open my eyes. I heard that this time they have not only assets disposed of by the court, but also various luxury items confiscated by the customs.” Xiao Shun laughed lightly.

Yao Cen looked at him with a confused look, “Since when are you interested in these things?”

“Let’s just go and have some fun. Anyway, you have nothing better to do at home now.”

Yao Cen thought for a moment, “If I don’t go with you, are you going to take that little girlfriend of yours with you?”

“Nonsense. She and I are just friends. She is Song Zhenhai’s granddaughter, and why would she want a man like me?” Xiao Shun said casually.

Yao Cen glared at him. What did this bastard mean? If she had wanted him, what else would he really have done?

After a short hesitation, she agreed, “Okay, let’s go then.”

Soon, two days passed.

Early in the morning, Xiao Shun changed into the suit that Song Linger had picked out for him last time, and fixed his hair slightly.

It was actually not bad. This was his first time attending such a grand occasion, and even though he himself didn’t care about his image, he didn’t want to embarrass Yao Cen.

Yao Cen was wearing a black fringe strapless and had put on a thin layer of makeup on her delicate face. She was just as astounding as always.

Liu Yunxiang watched the two as they dressed up, and she curiously asked, “Where are you two going this time?”

“There is an auction at Oceancliff Mansion today, we are going to have a look around,” Yao Cen said.

“With this rubbish?” said Liu Yunxiang, surprised.

Yao Cen then froze. She used to never let him go with herself to such occasions no matter what. But when Xiao Shun suggested that they go to this auction together, to her surprise, she didn’t find anything wrong.

“Well, just to have a look.” said Yao Cen with a stiff smile.

Liu Yunxiang wanted to say something else but she was interrupted by Xiao Shun.

“Mom, this is the key to that Pearl International house. You can go there if you’re okay today and see if we’re still missing anything.” Xiao Shun handed her the key to the villa and said.

Liu Yunxiang had always wanted to take a look at the villa, but she has not found the right time.

Now that Xiao Shun asked her to go there, she was more than just happy. She took over the key and said with a complicated expression, “Alright, just go then. So I don’t have to prepare your lunch.”

Yao Cen glanced at Xiao Shun and laughed lightly. She muttered in a small voice, “The villa can really shut her up.”

Oceancliff Mansion was packed with luxury cars and people in front of the door.

The government of this city held an auction every year to sell the assets left behind by some bankrupt or illegal enterprises, including properties, land, vehicles, etc., as well as some smuggled luxury goods, antique paintings and calligraphy seized by customs.

Each of these auctions attracted a large number of celebrities around the city.

Oceancliff Mansion was originally a well-known antique trading place in the city. It was mainly for the high-end market and received mostly just celebrities. Although this was not a high-end auction, still only the city’s most famous figures could receive invitations.

Xiao Shun and Yao Cen walked to the door and handed the invitation to the doorman at the door. The doorman took a quick glance and was just about to let them in, however, a sarcastic voice came from the side, “I suggest you check that one more carefully, don’t just let in everyone.”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Xiao Shun turned around, and it turned out to be Yao De and Li Chunlian.

Li Chunlian was dressed up like a peacock today. Despite the thick makeup she put on her face, she was no longer young and instead looked a bit funny. “Uncle, Aunt.” Although Yao Cen felt impatient, she still greeted them.

“Yao Cen, how can you two come here?”

Yao De asked. Obviously, he meant that this occasion was not suitable for them.

“Oh, we are just here to have a look around,” Yao Cen said.

“You don’t even have a job now, so definitely you have got quite a lot of time.” Li Chunlian sneered.
