Tonight, a grand auction will be held at the most bustling trade fair in Haicheng, and almost the entire upper class of Haicheng will be there to participate.

Su Li didn't want to come along, but John and his wife would be coming too, so she couldn't refuse.

Once inside the venue, John and his wife did not join them.

"I'm sorry, when I booked the table a few days ago, I didn't know that Secretary Su and Lin Feng would also be coming, so I only booked two tables. Do you want to look for other tables?"

Just as they were about to sit down, Song Wan suddenly said, linking her arm with Quan Ye's.

Su Li didn't think much of it. If there were no seats, she would just leave. Anyway, she didn't like staying in these kinds of places.

Shen Linfeng said, "I know some people over there, so there should still be seats available. I'll take A-Li there."

Song Wanxin nodded, "Okay, you can go ahead. Just let me know when you're leaving."

"let's go."

Shen Linfeng and Su Li walked away.

Quan Ye sat down, exuding a cool and aloof aura. Some people recognized him, but dared not come up to greet him.

Song Wan sat beside him, receiving admiring glances from all around.

She opened a bottle of water and handed it to him, "Aye, have some water?"

"No need." Quan Ye glanced down at his watch, his voice devoid of warmth. "I can only stay with you for about an hour. I have a video conference with someone overseas later."

"Okay, I'll leave with you in an hour. Actually, I don't really want to buy anything tonight."

"Since there's nothing you want to buy, there's no need to come here."

Song Wan sensed the change in his tone and quickly said, "That's not what I meant. I see you work so hard every day without taking a break, so I wanted to bring you out to relax."

Quan Ye gave a curt "hmm" and sat down to rest with his eyes closed.

Song Wan shifted her body, deliberately getting very close to him.

Su Li and Shen Linfeng were sitting a few rows behind them. From this angle, they looked intimate, like a happy couple.

This scene was somewhat jarring.

Su Li glanced at it and then looked away.

A cup of milk tea was suddenly handed to her.

"Here you go," Shen Linfeng said with a smile.

She took it and put it aside, saying, "Thank you."

"Let me put the straw in for you. You used to love milk tea, and you probably still do."

"No need, I'll drink it later."

Her cold and indifferent attitude made Shen Linfeng feel like he was offering his warm welcome but getting no response.

But looking at her beautiful, flawless face, he couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.

"Have you looked at the auction program? Is there anything you like?"

"I haven't seen it, I'm not interested."

"If you see anything you like, just let me know and I'll take a picture of it for you."

"No."

"Ah Li, don't you think Uncle and Miss Song are a good match? They will definitely be very happy after their marriage. The marriage between the Quan family and the Song family will shock the entire business circle."

"You're noisy."

Su Li rubbed her temples with one hand, her little face full of impatience.

"..."

There was a moment of silence.

"Hello, Mr. Sun."

Shen Linfeng turned around and greeted the person next to him.

The other person glanced at him, nodded slightly, but wasn't very enthusiastic.

Shen Linfeng greeted the people next to him one after another, as if he knew everyone very well.

"Ah Li, these are all high-level executives from major corporations. I'll introduce you to them another day and help you build some connections."

Su Li lazily lifted her eyes. "No need."

In fact, Su Li recognized all these people. Most of the business elites in Haicheng wanted to befriend Quan Ye. Some had visited him many times but had not been able to meet him, yet they persisted.

Over time, Su Li memorized these people's faces.
