Gu Qingyou’s words immediately surprised everyone. They had their eyes wide open as they curiously discussed non-stop. They wanted to know what kind of big shot were actually willing to auction off a fifth-grade elixir.
However, everyone soon got their answer. Under the gaze of the astonished crowd, Ancestor Su walked up to the stage and stood next to Gu Qingyou. “Please be quiet. I will now make a bid.”
As soon as he spoke, the entire crowd went into an uproar!
Just now, everyone had some thoughts in their hearts. They guessed that perhaps the royal family or a large sect that was auctioning off the elixir. After all, only those with such high status could possess a fifth-grade elixir.
No one had expected the elixir would actually belong to the down-and-out Su family. Everyone looked at each other and saw the Su family sitting in their seats. Each of them straightened their backs and accepted the admiration of the crowd.
“Oh my god, is there a mistake? This is actually the Su family’s elixir?”
“That’s why the Su family come to the auction aggressively today. It turns out that they have confidence! However, where did they get such precious elixir from?”
“Why do you care so much? Anyway, now that they had the elixir, the Su family would definitely be able to make a comeback.”
“It’s more than just a comeback, they’re bound to be even more successful than before!”
At this point, everyone felt a little regretful in their hearts. They regretted not lending a helping hand when the Su family was in dire straits. Otherwise, they would have owed them a favor!
“This is impossible!” Lady Zhou was so shocked that she almost stood up from her seat. Her voice was not soft and immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Sensing everyone’s gaze, Lady Zhou couldn’t afford to show her surprise. She could only suppress her trembling and pretend that nothing had happened.
Many people saw Lady Zhou’s reactions and couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts.
The Su family relied on marrying the daughter of the Nangong family to make a fortune, and in the end, they even heartlessly let the daughter of the Nangong family down. This matter was known to everyone in the imperial capital. Now that the Su family was in dire straits, the happiest ones were the Nangong family. Unfortunately, the Nangong family had not been happy for a few days when the Su family suddenly obtained a fifth-grade elixir. Now that they were in the limelight, they definitely would not take the Nangong family seriously.
“How could this be? Where did they get a fifth-grade elixir?” Lady Zhou muttered to herself after she sat down. Her face turned pale and she could hardly believe it.
“Mother…” Lady Wen’s eyes turned red when she saw Lady Zhou’s action.
She knew very well that ever since her elder sister died, although her parents did not say it, they had long hated the Su family. Lady Zhou was delighted every day when the Su family fell apart before. Now that the Su family was going to rely on a fifth-grade elixir to make a comeback, it was undoubtedly a huge blow to her parents.
Lady Zhou thought of her poor daughter and all sorts of emotions welled up in her heart. Her frail body couldn’t help but tremble until a jade-like hand gently covered her wrinkled hand.
She looked at Su Qian in surprise and happened to meet Su Qian’s gaze.
“Grandmother, don’t worry. This might be a blessing in disguise. The Su family won’t have a good ending.” Su Qian’s tone was firm. It wasn’t as simple as comforting Lady Zhou.
Lady Zhou looked at her granddaughter and a strange feeling suddenly rose in her heart. “Qian’er, are you…”
Su Qian didn’t wait for Lady Zhou to speak. She raised her hand to her lips, indicating for Lady Zhou to stop talking. Then, she looked at Ancestor Su..
