Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir-Chapter 197 - 124 Trending
Chapter 197: Chapter 124 Trending
Apart from Fu Yang, who remained calmly seated, the gazes of the others all turned towards the figure slowly making his way to the entrance.
As that extraordinarily handsome face gradually became visible under the light, someone finally recognized him. It was Fu Siyu, whose ranking on the world’s wealth charts had soared rapidly in the past two years.
"Fu Siyu! It’s actually him!"
No wonder everyone was surprised. Since Fu Siyu’s return to the country, everyone had been following his movements, but no matter who tried to approach him, they were all rejected by him.
This charity gala was his first public appearance since his return, so naturally it drew everyone’s attention.
Everyone began to wonder if there was something special about this charity gala.
Of course, there were also those who were excited by Fu Siyu’s arrival.
Fu Siyu was famous for rapidly advancing his corporation to the pinnacle of the world with decisive and swift methods.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the mention of Fu Siyu made everyone unconsciously shudder with awe.
Given Fu Siyu’s infamous temper, everyone guessed that he certainly would not let Shu Wan and Fu Yang off for taking his seat.
"So it’s the renowned Mr. Fu. Seeing you today is a great fortune in my three lifetimes," said the woman who had just been berating Shu Wan, her expression now gentle and smiling, "It’s just a pity that some people don’t have the vision and took your seat."
Upon hearing this, Fu Siyu’s eyes darkened slightly, "Oh?"
"You see, these two people, I don’t know where they came from, are too arrogant, actually daring to take your seat."
Fu Siyu turned his head, his gaze meeting Shu Wan’s smiling eyes. His eyes warmed a fraction, unnoticeably, but since his back was to the crowd, nobody noticed.
"Tch," Fu Yang lifted his eyelid at that moment, casting a dismissive glance at Fu Siyu. "Is there a name written here? Who said it must be for him."
The more arrogant Fu Yang became, the more obvious the Schadenfreude on the woman’s face. She looked excitedly towards Fu Siyu, "You see, these two people really have no manners. Someone, come on! Aren’t you going to kick them out quickly? Or are we waiting for Mr. Fu to do it himself?"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, staff began to approach to drive Shu Wan and Fu Yang away.
But before they got close, Fu Siyu slightly raised his hand, "No need. What this young man said is right, there is no name on it. I can just sit in that empty seat."
"Hmph," Fu Yang huffed lightly, good at pretending.
There were only three reserved seats in the first row, and the one Shu Wan occupied was in the middle. To her left sat Fu Yang, so now, only the seat on Shu Wan’s right was vacant.
Shu Wan was about to stand up, but Fu Siyu gave her a nod, "It’s fine, I can sit on the edge next to you."
With that, Fu Siyu directly took the seat to the right of Shu Wan.
Since Fu Siyu had said so, Shu Wan no longer dwelled on it.
At that moment, the second half of the auction began. Shu Wan returned to her seat and watched the auction together with Fu Siyu.
Everyone thought Shu Wan and Fu Yang would suffer terribly, but unexpectedly, Fu Siyu not only didn’t blame them, he even gave them the two better seats to sit in.
"Fu Siyu might know them, right? Why isn’t he angry that his seat was taken, and even let Shu Wan sit in the best spot? Does she even deserve it?"
"You’ve ever seen any big shot get into a tiff over small fry? With Fu Siyu’s status, he probably doesn’t care where he sits. After all, he’s the focal point wherever he is."
"Indeed. This time Shu Wan is lucky. But Fu Siyu is really handsome. I heard he has a wife, but I wonder who she is. So handsome, she’s really scored."
The crowd murmured among themselves below the stage, while on the stage, the auctioneer had already begun introducing a Jade Bracelet.
The bracelet was donated by a mysterious family, a Banshan Water Jade Bracelet, with a color clear as water, very beautiful, and Shu Wan quite liked it.
Unfortunately, she did not have the money and could only feast her eyes.
"Okay, bidding can now begin, starting at 10 million."
Since the bracelet was truly a priceless gem, as soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, many began to bid. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Within a mere two minutes, the bidding price had soared to 24 million.
"Alright, bid number 24 at 24 million, is there anyone else who would like to bid?"
"30 million," suddenly spoke the hitherto silent Fu Siyu at her side.
"Excellent, bid number 1 at 30 million, any other bidders? 30 million once, 30 million twice, 30 million three times, congratulations to number one for winning the Jade Bracelet."
Fu Yang turned his head, gave Shu Wan’s arm a pat, and whispered, "See that? He’s loaded. Why not fleece him a bit, surely that beats earning from acting?"
Although Fu Yang spoke softly, Fu Siyu still overheard.
Out of respect for being in public, Fu Siyu didn’t say anything but his gaze darkened.
Sensing the subtle tension between father and son, Shu Wan felt somewhat helpless, not knowing what had transpired during their solo outing that afternoon; it seemed their relationship hadn’t improved much.
The auction continued to its conclusion, the room silent.
At this time, on Weibo, the news about Shu Wan, Fu Yang, and Fu Siyu climbed the trending searches once again.
Of course, before this, the first to trend was "Lin Man’s Wrap-up Photos."
Approaching dusk, Lin Man suddenly posted a series of photos on her account.
In the pictures, she wore her everyday clothes against a backdrop of the drama’s set, with her costume from the role lying beside her.
Although the set was nothing special, it was lit exceptionally well by the light and shadows.
The setting sun filtered through the costume, casting a glow on Lin Man’s profile, creating a fusion that blurred the line between fiction and reality.
Although Lin Man’s expression was calm, the emotion from deep within her resonated throughout the photo series.
Even though the character played by Lin Man had yet to debut publicly, from this photo series alone, people inexplicably felt that with Lin Man’s earnest approach to her roles, the final presentation couldn’t be anything but impressive.
Of course, another highlight was that Lin Man looked great in these photos, not in a refined way of delicate features and styling, but a vibrant beauty, as if her eyes could speak.
Within a short period, she received a flood of praise from netizens.
Netizens initially thought that Lin Man had hired a professional photographer for the shoot, but Lin Man replied to a comment asking about the photographer, "Shu Wan took them. I didn’t want to, but she insisted on chasing me to take photos. There was no helping it."
[?? Shu Wan has that kind of skill? I don’t believe it. This photography looks almost professional; the subject seems to have a soul.]
[Aren’t their relations supposed to be bad? But why is Shu Wan taking photos for Lin Man after the wrap-up?]
[You guys always say that Lin Man and Shu Wan are archenemies, but judging from Lin Man’s tone, it doesn’t seem that way at all. It seems more like a proud tsundere.]
Due to Lin Man’s wrap-up photos trending, Shu Wan also received a wave of attention.
However, the trending topic of "Lin Man’s Wrap-up Photos" was soon outshone by "Fu Siyu’s Appearance at a Charity Banquet."
Onlookers flocked to the trending searches for gossip, only to find the familiar figure of Shu Wan again.
Netizen: Seriously, is Shu Wan some kind of trending bug? Why is she everywhere?
