Chapter 50: Trouble at the Auction House
Mr. Fu's response was consistent, asking him to send a video of the environment after he arrived and to message him anytime. He also transferred a considerable amount of money so that he could have a good time.
Ji Xia felt incredibly guilty, having nearly hired all of them. But at the last moment, he held back, thinking he'd hire them after his birthday surprise.
He clicked to receive the red envelopes and answered them one by one obediently, his hands still shaking as he tapped the screen.
To conceal the truth from Mr. Fu, Xu Le first took Ji Xia to the arcade. After filming the report video, they headed to the auction house. Jiang Feng followed them, serving them at their beck and call.
When the three entered the venue, the auction had already entered the second half.
According to the information Jiang Feng dug up, the item is almost ready for auction.
"Hey, isn't this the Second Young Master Jiang?"
As soon as they sat down, they heard a sarcastic voice coming from the side.
Ji Xia looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man in his early twenties with dyed yellow hair. He looked a bit like Zhao Kuo, which made him have no good impression of him at all.
The young man's eyes were fixed on his face, and wherever his gaze passed, it was like a damp snake's tongue licking slowly, making Ji Xia shudder.
Zhao Cheng really didn't expect that he just got the news from Fu Su to take revenge on the person in charge of the Fu family who caused his brother to be placed under house arrest, and came here specifically to take a photo, but he would actually meet such a beauty.
She looks so unique and beautiful just wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans. If she changes into the clothes he likes, she will definitely be breathtakingly beautiful.
The perverted possessiveness in his heart began to take over again, and he wanted to catch the person, lock him up, and love him well.
However, before that, he had to deal with a pile of garbage.
He curled his lips and sneered, "Didn't Second Young Master Jiang go bankrupt a long time ago? How can he still have the money to come to a place like this?"
Jiang Feng's face looked bad since he saw Zhao Cheng. When he heard him greet him, his heart sank and he wanted to turn around and leave.
But he held onto a bit of hope. After all, this Second Young Master Zhao wasn't the type to meddle in other people's business. Furthermore, since it was his business, Second Young Master Zhao would probably feel bad even if he looked at him.
But he didn't expect that Zhao Cheng would directly expose his past.
But facing this notorious lunatic in the Beijing circle, who would even send his own brother to a mental hospital, he didn't dare to offend him at all and could only sweat and put on a smile.
Xu Le's delicate brows were tightly furrowed. He looked at the arrogant Zhao Cheng and then at the servile and fawning Zhao Cheng. His heart sank to the bottom.
He practically jumped out of his seat, his hand trembling violently as he grabbed Jiang Feng's collar. "Is your family bankrupt? How much is that half of the company's equity worth?"
Zhao Cheng's lazy voice came over. "Since it's bankrupt, of course it's worthless."
Xu Le's eyes were red as he swung his hand and punched the man in the face. "You lied to me! How dare you lie to me! Give me back my house and my savings!"
The Omega's limited strength naturally posed no threat to the Alpha. Jiang Feng gave Xu Le a powerful push, sending her sprawling to the ground. "What's the point of going crazy, bitch? I lied to you? Humph, just because you told me you were a poor young man doesn't mean you didn't lie to me? We already have a written agreement: I'll exchange my equity for your house and savings. Even if you take it to court, it's useless!"
Ji Xia helped Xu Le up. He was furious at this shameless villain named Jiang Feng. His face was sullen and he said fiercely, "Your shares are worthless. Return Lele's house and savings."
The person standing behind this Omega was someone he couldn't afford to offend. Jiang Feng's attitude became more restrained, and he said, "The contract has been signed. The house and the money have been lost. There's no way they can be returned."
Xu Le was about to pounce on him again and fight to the death with this liar.
But the staff at the venue had already noticed this, and several security guards and staff rushed over.
Jiang Feng was the first to complain. "Get this Omega out of here, he's acting like a lunatic."
Xu Le's eyes were red and his chest was heaving violently. He really looked abnormal.
The staff member observed the clothes of the people below and said to Xu Le, "Sir, please leave the venue."
Behind him stood several burly security guards, giving him a very intimidating look.
Ji Xia grabbed Xu Le's hand and said, "Le Le just lost control of her emotions because she was deceived by him. He's the one who wants to leave. He's a liar!"
Jiang Feng retorted: "I am the second young master of the Jiang family. Throw this crazy Omega out now."
Seeing Ji Xia's distinguished demeanor, the staff hesitated to act rashly and paused. Just as they were in a dilemma, Zhao Cheng spoke.
Zhao Cheng stared at Ji Xia and said, "My little beauty, please beg me. I'll help you throw this bastard out."
Jiang Feng's face changed when he heard this.
Xu Le pulled Ji Xia and hid her behind him. He tried to calm down and said to the staff, "I'm sorry, I lost control of my emotions just now. I'm fine now. I won't make a scene anymore. Let me finish filming with my friend, okay?"
Before the staff member could speak, Zhao Cheng's voice spoke first: "No. My dear, if you want your friend to stay, your only way is to beg me."
He opened his hands and said, "Come, come to me."
Xu Le recognized Zhao Cheng the moment he saw him. He was the most wild and crazy playboy in the Beijing circle. If an Omega was targeted by him, he would be unable to leave his house unless he played crazy and crippled himself.
He pulled Ji Xia back a few steps and said cautiously, "Second Young Master Zhao, he's Mr. Fu's man. I advise you not to have any bad intentions."
Zhao Cheng sneered. "I'm afraid of Fu Yuan!"
He gave a look, and the two bodyguards beside him were about to step forward to arrest him.
The staff naturally recognized the crazy second-generation master of the Zhao family, and did not dare to do anything for fear of retaliation.
Xu Le's heart sank, and he was about to pull Ji Xia away.
Ji Xia broke free from his hand, pulled out a small red wooden sign from her pocket, and said to the staff, "I want the painting called 'New Life'. Take it and we'll leave."
When the staff saw the small red wooden sign, their expressions immediately became respectful.
He took the small wooden sign and examined it carefully, then shouted into the headset, "Manager Liang, this is the Qiu family's redwood sign."
Zhao Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly. He had always heard that Fu Yuan hated Omegas the most. He just thought that the little O was lying to escape. Unexpectedly, the little beauty was really the one in Fu Yuan's bed.
He grinned viciously. What a coincidence! He was just about to take revenge on Fu Yuan.
He said, "Caught!"
The two bodyguards followed the order and were about to go forward to arrest Ji Xia, but the security at the venue immediately stopped them.
The staff member said, "Master Zhao, this gentleman is a distinguished guest of our store. Please be kind enough to show mercy."
Zhao Cheng, always a self-centered person, wouldn't back down just because of something like that. Even when the auction house manager arrived, he showed no sign of backing down. "I don't even care about the Fu family, let alone the Qiu family! If you don't want to disappear from this world, I advise you to get out of the way right now, take your people with you."
He was determined to take the little beauty in front of him away today.
Manager Liang's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He was just an employee. He couldn't afford to offend the Qiu family, nor could he afford to offend the Zhao family! He immediately winked and asked someone to contact the Qiu family.
The situation became deadlocked again.
At this moment, the host's voice suddenly rose. "This painting, titled 'Rebirth,' is the last work of the young painter Qiu Qinghe. The starting price is 50 million!"
Ji Xia said, "This is the painting I want."
Manager Liang responded respectfully and immediately had the painting removed.
Zhao Cheng stood up and said with a smile, "That's perfect. I'll take both the person and the painting with me."
Ji Xia found himself encountering strange people again, being dragged into a strange plot. This must be his punishment for deceiving Mr. Fu. How could he get rid of this person?!
Manager Liang said, "The seller has a request when offering the item for auction. He hopes to meet with the buyer. Mr. Ji, please follow me to the VIP room."
Ji Xia pulled Xu Le and was about to follow Manager Liang.
Zhao Cheng, however, didn't play by the rules. He disregarded his image in such an occasion and directly pushed Manager Liang aside, grabbed Ji Xia's wrist, and was about to pull her away. "No need to see her."
"Let me go!"
Ji Xia was caught off guard and was restrained. She raised her foot to kick, but Zhao Cheng directly hugged her waist and brought her close to him.
Zhao Cheng sniffed the fragrance on his body and said, "My little beauty, you smell so good."
Xu Le was restrained by the bodyguards and could not move. He could only shout, "Zhao Cheng, if you dare to touch him, you will die without a burial place!"
Zhao Cheng glanced at Xu Le and said with a smile, "Then let's see if Fu Yuan has the ability!"
He hugged the struggling Omega in his arms and turned to leave, but at this moment, a strong wind swept past and Zhao Cheng was hit hard in the face. The whole person was pushed back several steps due to the impact.
The Omega in his arms was also pulled away.
Ji Xia couldn't break free from Zhao Cheng and was about to take out a small dagger from his pocket.
He brought this with him just in case before going out, but he didn't expect it to come in handy.
When he was biting his lower lip and was about to use it, he suddenly felt a gust of wind, and then his arm was pulled by a huge force, and his body took a big step back.
Ji Xia turned around in panic and saw a man in a moon-white robe. His eyes lit up and he called out, "Little Grandpa!"
Jiang Yishao raised his hand and rubbed the top of his head. "Be good!"
Then, his eyes fell on Zhao Cheng and he said, "Boy, you are tired of living. You dare to touch my grandson's people."
He curled the corner of his mouth, and before Zhao Cheng could react, he beat up the man and threw him out of the auction hall.
Ji Xia exclaimed in amazement: "Grandpa is so amazing!"
Jiang Yishao clapped his hands and said, "Your little grandfather is the only Omega member of the military's Flying Eagle Squadron. Of course he's awesome."
Ji Xia looked at him with admiration.
Jiang Yishao said, "Did you take the picture?"
Ji Xia nodded and said, "I bought it, but I haven't received it yet. The seller wants to meet with me."
Jiang Yishao said, "Let's go, Grandpa also wants to meet this person."
Ji Xia: "Wait a minute, little grandpa, this person cheated my friend of his money. Can you help me get the house and things back?"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Jiang Feng, who was about to escape, said: …………………
Jiang Yishao said, "I'll leave it to little grandpa."
Ji Xia: "Thank you, little grandpa." He winked at Xu Le, "Le Le, don't worry. Little grandpa is the best, he will definitely help you get your things back."
Xu Le's eyes were red and he said "thank you" in a choked voice.
