Chapter 56 - 56 Stopped

56 Stopped

Xi Wan was woken up by hunger the next morning. After she went downstairs and had breakfast in a hurry, Chen Tong said tentatively, “Madam, the auction is tonight. Should we start controlling your diet strictly in order to show off your figure perfectly in the gown?”

Xi wan understood what she meant immediately. “You want me not to eat? No, I’ll collapse from hunger if I don’t eat! I won’t lose much weight even if I skip a meal, right?”

In fact, Xi Wan’s figure could already be considered to have a voluptuous figure. She had the perfect curves in all the right places. It was just that she usually liked to wear loose clothes to cover her figure.

“This is also for the final results.” Chen Tong was still trying to persuade Xi Wan.

Xi Wan simply lay down on the sofa and said, “I don’t want any result. I don’t want to go hungry. I’m confident that I’m pretty and have a good figure. I can wear any dress.”

When Chen Tong heard this, she did not say anything more.

In the evening, when Xi Wan was still worrying about what kind of gown to wear, Zhang Wen received an order from Su Xun to send her a gown. After she changed, he brought her to the auction venue.

“Madam, the chairman asked me to bring you a gown. He said that it was chosen according to your style.” Zhang Wen said.

The chairman actually personally chose a gown for his wife. It seemed like their relationship was getting better and better!

Zhang Wen was secretly excited and was about to shed tears of excitement. However, in the next second, he heard Xi Wan say, “What kind of gown is this? Your chairman really has bad taste, right?”

Zhang Wen held back his tears and looked at the dress in Xi Wan’s hands. It was pure white with some diamonds and pearls embellished on it. It looked simple and elegant.

“Madam, you don’t like it?” Zhang Wen probed. He remembered that Madam used to love white. She always liked to wear white gowns regardless of whether she was going out or attending a banquet.

Xi Wan said in disdain, “Of course, not. I’m going to attend the auction, not to mourn at a funeral. Forget it, I know that your chairman doesn’t have good taste so I’ll choose a gown on my own.”

There were many dresses in her closet but that was also the reason why she had trouble choosing. She did not know which one was better.

After much thought, she chose a dark green dress that was both luxurious but not too high-profile. It did not only show off her figure perfectly, but it also made her skin look brighter and it made her look radiant.

Xi Wan put on some light makeup and simply tidied up her appearance. She then said to Zhang Wen, “Let’s go.”

Zhang Wen was stunned by Xi Wan’s actions and he was also scrambling as he walked.

Madam was just too beautiful! Madam was indeed more suitable for such a gorgeous and flamboyant color compared to wearing those white clothes!

When they arrived at the auction venue, Su Xun had already arrived and was standing at the door to wait for Xi Wan’s arrival.

When Xi Wan walked up to him, Su Xun was stunned for a moment and asked, “You’re not wearing the dress I gave you?”

“The one you chose is too ugly. It’s embarrassing for me to wear it.” Xi Wan said unceremoniously and held Su Xun’s arm calmly under the watchful eyes of the people around her and said, “Let’s go. Do you want to keep standing at the door?”

Although Su Xun was surprised, he did not say much. Just as he was about to go in with Xi Wan, someone blocked their way. “Su Xun, Xi Wan.”

The two of them took a closer look and realized that it was Xi Kang and Wang Rui.

Su Xun rarely dealt with these two people because he did not have a good impression of them. Moreover, they looked like they were here to look for Xi Wan, so he pushed Xi Wan out and said, “They are here for you.”

Instead, Xi Wan retreated and said, “I don’t know them. They’re probably here to find you.”

Su Xun also said, “I’m not familiar with them either. They’re looking for you.”

Xi Kang and Wang Rui’s faces turned pale, especially Xi Kang’s. The muscles on his face were stiff. He tried his best to force a smile and said, “Su Xun, I’m your father-in-law, how can you say that you’re not familiar with me?”

Su Xun became impatient. “Just say what you want to say.”

Xi Kang did not waste any time and said, “I’m here for Xi Shu’s matter. No matter what it is, you’re her brother-in-law so you can’t bear to see her go to prison either, can you? As long as you step in, you can get her out of the police station.”

Xi Kang’s face was full of wrinkles as he smiled. Xi Wan looked at him and felt that he could squeeze a mosquito to death.

Wang Rui smiled apologetically and said, “Xi Wan, Xi Shu has indeed done something to let you and Xi Ze down. Can you be gracious and forgive her? She’s still young and insensible.”
