Just as everyone thought that Su Qian was doomed, a terrifying aura swept through like a ferocious beast. A black shadow flashed past and a fist sent Escort Qin flying from his spot.
Bang!
Escort Qin fell to the ground with a loud bang and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale as he looked at the man in black who had suddenly appeared. “Dong Yan?” Looking at Dong Yan in surprise, Su Qian immediately heard the sound of a wolf howling in the air.
Accompanied by a loud sound, Xiao Yan, dressed in a purple robe, descended from the sky. The aura around him was like a forest of ice, causing everyone to step back in fear.
“I want to see who dares to bully my woman today.” Xiao Yan’s indifferent gaze swept over the people behind him and landed coldly on Su Chenghua and the others.
Looking at the few heavenly blood wolves that Xiao Yan had brought with him glaring at him with their teeth bared, Su Chenghua instantly recalled how terrifying Xiao Yan was. He shook his head crazily and said, “No, no, no, I dare not, I dare not.”
Seeing Su Chenghua turn around and run into the auction house after saying this, Xiao Yan couldn’t be bothered. Instead, he smiled at Su Qian and asked, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. But how did your highness end up here?” Su Qian looked at Xiao Yan in confusion.
“Today, Feng Lin Auction House is holding an auction, so I naturally want to join in the fun.” Xiao Yan smiled naturally.
“I bring my daughter-in-law and granddaughter to pay respect to the Ninth Prince.” Lady Zhou was just about to bow when a gentle breeze swept out from Xiao Yan’s palm and steadily lifted her and Lady Wen’s knees.
“Old Madam does not need to be so restrained in front of me,” Xiao Yan said gently.
“Yes.” Lady Zhou nodded. Her attitude towards Xiao Yan was not enthusiastic, but rather a trace of resistance.
Thinking back six years ago when the Emperor bestowed the marriage and decided on Qian’er and Xiao Yan, her Old Master had already said that Xiao Yan was definitely not someone from the pool. Qian’er would probably be in turmoil if she married him.
She didn’t want her granddaughter to lose her entire life because of marriage, so Lady Zhou didn’t like Xiao Yan. However, he was a prince after all, a prince with deep shrewdness and unfathomable strength. She had no choice but to show him face.
“I received the news too late this time and was unable to book a room. I wonder if I can go with Old Madam?” Xiao Yan was very smart. Instead of looking for Su Qian, he went straight to Old Madam and smiled kindly. “Old Madam, don’t worry. I’ll go alone and sit in the corner. I guarantee that I won’t take up any space.”
Su Qian looked displeased and gave Xiao Yan a look like he was a sly fox.
This scumbag was clearly looking for an excuse!
Leaving aside other matters, he was a prince after all. How could the auction house not reserve a room for him? Even if Ah You didn’t leave it for him, it would only take a word from her.
However, Su Qian couldn’t expose herself, so she could only roll her eyes in her heart.
“This…” Lady Zhou looked at Su Qian hesitantly.
Xiao Yan was a prince, and he had just helped them. There were many onlookers around them. If they refused, wouldn’t it be a public disgrace to the Ninth Prince?
However, she really didn’t want her granddaughter to suffer.
For a moment, Lady Zhou was in a dilemma.
“This… Your Highness, we are all women, isn’t this not appropriate?” Lady Wen’s thoughts were clear, she immediately saw the dilemma of her mother-in-law, so she stood out to explain.
“Qianqian and I are engaged, so it’s perfectly legitimate. No one dares to gossip, so Young Madam can rest assured.” Xiao Yan’s tone was firm as he said without a doubt.
When Lady Wen heard this, she frowned. In the end, she could only look at Su Qian questioningly.
After all, whether to agree or not ultimately depended on Qian’er’s wishes!
