Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist’s Uncle Chapter 51 - Dredge!

Chapter 51: Dredge!

When she heard a familiar voice, Ling Sheng’s heart also settled down inexplicably.
Facing that direction, An Yan was pushing the wheelchair over.
The man in the wheelchair emitted a sophisticated elegance but gave off a kind of coldness she had never seen before. He also had the vibe of a champion high up in the hierarchy looking at the panoramic view below arrogantly.
She had always felt that he was approachable and easy to talk to every time they met.
However, at that moment, the man emitted a fearsomely cold and distant feeling that seemed to warn strangers away.
“What happened?” Jun Shiyan looked at the small woman by the ship’s railing.
His expansive orbs landed on her snow-white shoulders and delicate collarbones. The light in his eyes seemed to dim a little.
Why was she wearing so little?
Why was she revealing so much?
He had initially not planned to be the emcee, only the auctioneer.
However, An Yan had told him that she would be there.
He did not know why he had suddenly wanted to see her.
When Ling Sheng saw him, she felt chagrined instantly and her voice became slightly melancholic. “Third Master, he threw my family heirloom Palpitate into the river.”
“You were the one who threw my Dzi bead bracelet into the river.” Huo Xuanzhou did not dare go overboard in front of Jun Shiyan. “Third Master, she doesn’t have Palpitate. She fabricated this. This woman’s a liar!”
For some reason, the Third Master was giving him a dangerous look.
Jun Shiyan’s voice was calm when he replied faintly, “How do you know that she’s a liar? Master Zhou has learned how to maliciously slander people as well? Don’t make claims without evidence.”
Huo Xuanzhou frowned as he tried to suppress his anger. He did not dare blow his top in front of him. “Third Master, if you don’t believe me, you can check who has Palpitate now.
“Given your abilities, checking such a trivial matter should be very easy.
“Palpitate was bought by a mysterious collector two months ago. How did it become her family heirloom all of a sudden?”
He made sense.
No one on the scene believed Ling Sheng’s words.
She was a liar. Who would believe her ‘family heirloom’ claim?
“What if this lady’s words are true? Wouldn’t you be framing a good person given how quickly you asserted your claim?” Jun Shiyan asked.
“How could her words be true? She’s a liar, Third Master!” Huo Xuanzhou could obviously feel that the Third Master was helping that liar.
“What if I said she had it? What would Master Zhou intend to do then?” Jun Shiyan was slightly annoyed as his cold gaze swept across him.
“I… She can’t possibly have it!” Huo Xuanzhou’s face was ashen when he pointed at Ling Sheng. “If she really has Palpitate, I will… I will jump down here and swim to the shore!”
“Okay.” Jun Shiyan smiled. “Everyone has heard Master Zhou’s words. Since they have both insisted on their claims, I, as the auctioneer, shall prove who is innocent with the only method possible.”
Everyone looked at Jun Shiyan, the most mysterious, cold-blooded, and powerful man in the capital.
Jun Shiyan’s thin lips moved. In a thin, icy, emotionless voice, he ordered, “An Yan, let them stop the ship and dredge!”
Huo Xuanzhou was completely dumbfounded.
Stop the ship?
Dredge?
They were at the central point of the river. The Third Master really believed the female liar.
He wanted to explain and defend himself further but lacked the guts to approach the man in front of him, scared off by his fearsome and mighty air.
“Let’s dredge then and see who’s lying. If she doesn’t have Palpitate, what shall we do?” Huo Xuanzhou could no longer suppress the ball of fury in his heart.
Jun Shiyan gave Ling Sheng a look that eased her mind.
