Brother-in-law vs Brother-in-law

By now, Yan Shu was already familiar with this voice.

"Do you want me to tell you how the female bathroom was?" Yan Shu smirked. If it has been before, she would've tried her best to stay away from him but now she was just waiting for him to appear infront of her. She turned her head to look at the person behind her and grinned.

"Cough... cough... uh, no thanks." Si Junyan was rather speechless. He did not expect to get teased by her instead.

"It's fine. I don't mind elaborating for you." She mocked at him.

"If you insist then go on. I am very much interested now." This time he did not lose his compose rather he wanted to see how far she was willing to go.

Yan Shu had never met such a pervert before. She thought he will back off after that bur to her surprise, he wanted to pursue the matter till the end.

'I will take you to the end of the world then.' Being an actress she had played different types of characters so she did not feel shameful as she was already used to it.

"Since you are so interested, I'll try my best to entertain you." She paused and took a deep breath before continuing, " The door was nothing much worth talking about but after entering you will be able see the beauty of a washroom. The sound of toilet flushes, mixed smell of everyone's..." Yan Shu kept talking and talking until she saw Si Junyan feeling disgusted.

Never in his wildest dreams, he expected Su Mo Jiaran, a quiet and elegant girl like her will dare to talk about things like this. That was the reason he played along with her. But her elaboration kept getting deeper and deeper that he started to feel disgusted at first and had goosebumps but soon he couldn't tolerate anymore and almost felt like vomitting. He quickly stood up and rushed to look for the gents washroom.

Yan Shu chuckled seeing Si Junyan like this. She had always believed in 'an eye for an eye'. Having taken her revenge, she was now feeling cheerful.

From afar, Su Jiacheng had been observing the two while giving his speech. He suppressed his urge to go over and listen to what the two were talking about focusing on how to cut short his speech and finish as soon as possible. Then when he saw Si Junyan leaving the table he felt slightly relaxed.

Outside,Assistant Hu was stunned seeing Si Junyan rush out of the room in a hurry. Scared, he quietly followed his boss.

Si Junyan walked so fast towards the washroom that Assistant Hu trembled if something went wrong in the company.

.....

".... Hence, I am very much grateful to Hope Foundation for giving me such an opportunity. I also thank you all on behalf of HOPE for making this event successful with your mighty presence. Have a great time. Thank you." Su Jiacheng bowed and got off the stage.

"Did Si Junyan bother you?" Su Jiacheng caressed Yan Shu's hair and sat beside her in his designated seat.

"May be it's the opposite." She chuckled at Su Jiacheng's concern.

"His face was green when he left." He smirked.

"Your sister is quite capable. Don't you think?" Then they both laughed.

Afar from their table in behind, on a corner, a woman sitting beside a plump old man clenched her fist under the table. She was observing Su Jiacheng since the moment she entered this place. She has been finding a chance to approach him but due to her unmatchable position she could not find any opportunity. She even went to the point of sucking up to this greasy old chubby man but only to be in vain. Instead the masked girl seemed quite intimate with Su Jiacheng. She gritted her teeth at the point of almost breaking off as jealousy took over her whole self.

"Xiao An, what happened?" The chubby man felt the hand holding his hand hardened with every second. He didn't know why this lowly woman was acting strong suddenly.

"I am just feeling under the weather." Hatred filled her as Xiao An stared at the chubby man disdainfully. But since, this man was still useful to him she couldn't lose her temper infront of him yet.

'One day, I will acquire President Su and kick your out of this world. This woman better emjoy her good days properly, her doom is soon in my hands.' She mumbled inwardly.

...

The main part of the gala started. The auction of itsms donated from all the prosperous people for the charity were displayed in the screen.

Yan Shu swept a glance at the screen as she had no interest in those things. But her eyes paused at one of the item.

A portrait of the real Yan Shu was also among the items. The painting was of her wearing a white hanfu with a sword in her hand. The golden amulet hanging on her waist band and the golden grip was gleaming. The steel of the sword glistened under the sunlight coming from the hidden sun whose half was covered in thunder. Her hanfu turned red on some parts making it wuite detectable as thr color of blood.

That painting reminded Yan Shu of her past days. Although she had been just fooling around since she became Su Mo Jiaran but she cannot deny the fact that a part of her soul was still attached to acting that sometimes make her want to go back to the previous life. The portrait was from a historical movie she acted in. One of her very first movie that helped her rise in fane. She was just one of the supporting character but her role was enough to make the audience remember her forever.

Su Jiacheng noticed her paused gaze. He looked at where she was staring at and saw the portrait of Actress Yan Shu. He then remembered his grandfather saying that Su Mo Jiaran was a fan of that actress. Although he didnot believe it at that time but now he wasn't certain of that. Hence, he came to a conclusion that he will buy that painting and gift it to his sister in order to make her happy.

Finalky the time for the sale of the portrait came.

"This portrait was drawn by one of our country's reputed painting masters, Master Zhu. He went to visit his friend's movie set on that day and happened to arrive at this scene. It was said that Master Zhu was mesmerized by her beauty and talent as well as the aura Yan Shu carried at that moment. Hence, he painted it later after returning home. It was hung on the living room of the Zhu Mansion till now. Now that the legendary actress has suffered such an unfortunate event, Master Zhu donated it amd wishes that our prayers could bring her back to life to how she was before." The host wiped his tears after he was done speaking. He himself was a fan of Yan Shu making it hard for him to not shed tears talking about it.

"The bidding will start at 1 million." He then gestured for the audience to bid.

Si Junyan was waiting for the painting all along from the beginning. It was the sole reason he came here today. He was determined to take it home no matter what.

The bidding went up to 10 million and most of them gave up as they did not feel like it was worth it.

"20 million." Su Jiacheng smiled as he was now certain it was his cause no one will dare to offend him.

"30 million." Si Junyan could not understand why his second brother was suddenly interested in an actress since he had always tried to ignore other women except his sister so far.

Su Jiacheng was also feeling the same about his third brother. He knew Si Junyan jas only liked his childhood love but these past few days he had been trying to get close to his sister and now he was even trying to compete with him for this painting. He was also determined to take the painting with him now no matter the measure he has to take.

The two continued bidding and the host felt helpless. The bidding went upto 100 million but no one among the two seem to have the urge to stop any soon.

Just when the host was thinking to give a call to the organizer he heard a lady's voice stopping stiffening him.

"500 million." Yan Shu was lost in her thoughts when the bidding of her painting started. She did not regain her senses until she heard 100 million. When she saw the two man competing she tried to find a chance to meddle. Thus, when the two paused to look at each other she took the chance to bid.

Both Si Junyan and Su Jiacheng was dumbfounded hearing the bid coming from the young lady. They peeked at the young lady sitting calmly between them.

The host took the chance as it was already the highest. Any more higher and their gala might be sued as gambling cause they had a limit set up. Hence, he quickly counted,

"500 million 1,2,3..... Congratulations, Miss on acquiring this masterpiece."

The involved people and the other people pressnt in the hall couldn't get a hold of what was going on making then unable to understand what the host was speaking.

"Thank you. Deliver it to the Su villa." Yan Shu calmly spoke to the manager who just came by to take her card. Only then the people present on hall regained their senses.

"What an overpowering lady." They all muttered inwardly.

Su Jiacheng and Si Junyan was left speechless as they stared at each other foolishly.
