Chapter 139: 133: The second male lead finally appears, Changling meets Xie Liangjiang. Chapter 139: 133: The second male lead finally appears, Changling meets Xie Liangjiang. Huayi Auction House and Inkwell Hall Gallery are both under the Zhou Group umbrella, and since this auction’s offerings are all artworks, Huayi decided to hold the auction at Inkwell Hall’s Exhibition Hall No. 7.

Besides collectors, many other individuals interested in investing in artworks from various sectors also attended.

Gu Yihuan also came today; his mother, Madam Guan Zhengming, is an enthusiast of ceramic artworks. Having heard from He Dongzhou that Xie Shang would also be there tonight, Gu Yihuan searched for people as soon as he entered the gallery.

He saw Xie Shang.

“Fourth brother.”

And there was Wen Changling.

Wen Changling wore a white satin dress today, resembling a delicate white flower.

Many gentlemen brought their female companions tonight, and most were arm-in-arm with the ladies, but Xie Shang and Wen Changling were different; he was holding Wen Changling’s hand.

Wen Changling’s dress was too long, so Xie Shang walked very slowly.

Out of curiosity, Madam Guan Zhengming waited where she was.

Xie Shang approached, “Auntie Guan.”

Since the Xie Family lived close to the Gu Family, and Madam Guan Zhengming got along well with Su Nanzhi.

She had already noticed the person next to Xie Shang, “And who is this?”

“My girlfriend,” Xie Shang said, looking down and addressing Wen Changling, “This is Xiao Huan’s mother.”

Wen Changling nodded as a greeting.

Madam Guan Zhengming stared at her, not averting her gaze in the least, as if looking at some kind of rarity.

Gu Yihuan tugged at Lady Guan’s bag, “Mom.”

Only then did Madam Guan Zhengming retreat from her scrutinizing gaze, “Let’s go inside.”

Once inside the exhibition hall, Gu Yihuan asked Madam Guan Zhengming, “Why were you staring at her?”

“She’s so pretty.”

Madam Guan Zhengming hadn’t recognized her; she had previously seen Wen Changling at the Xiao Zheng Family’s funeral hall.

Madam Guan Zhengming was never accurate when it came to judging people; otherwise, how could she have chosen Gu Yihuan’s father, that flirtatious playboy. She assessed Wen Changling, “So demure and seems obedient.”

Gu Yihuan murmured to himself, Wen Changling was anything but obedient.

Exhibition Hall No. 7 was spacious, with chairs arranged in the middle of the hall, a glass display case above, and the auction platform to the upper right, flanked by security guards.

The auction house had arranged Xie Shang’s seat in the second row.

many familiar faces to Wen Changling were present, like up there to the left,
