Chapter 39: Snakes and rats in the same nest

After the five lots were displayed, the auction venue fell into a dead silence.

Even the slowest people reacted at this time.

The names of these five lots were definitely not chosen casually by Zheng Rui. There must be deep meaning in the short line of words.

As for what Zheng Rui wanted to express, it depends on whether anyone is willing to answer them.

The guests present looked sideways, and the inquiring and gossiping eyes gathered from all directions towards the two protagonists.

Zheng Xiu and Zhuang Lin realized earlier than others that the names of these five lots were not accidental!

They must have been chosen by Zheng Rui on purpose!

But Zheng Rui introduced the items too quickly, and there were guests staring at them all the time, so they didn't have time to think of a way to deal with it, and Zheng Rui had already introduced the remaining three items quickly.

After reading the names of the last three items, Zheng Xiu and Zhuang Lin felt even more nervous.

At the same time, they also confirmed one thing -

Zheng Rui had indeed noticed their abnormality a long time ago!

When Zheng Rui was born, it was also a helpless act.

Grandpa Zheng wanted to hold a grandson, and the two fake couples had to do in vitro fertilization to give birth to Zheng Rui for money and face.

When Zheng Rui was still young, Zheng Xiu and Zhuang Lin disdained to perform in front of him.

In their eyes, Zheng Rui was just a child. What could a child remember?

When Zheng Rui grew up, Zhuang Lin and Zheng Xiu stopped acting in front of him, but at least they stopped bringing him home.

They had hidden it so well. When did Zheng Rui know all this?

Zhuang Lin and Zheng Xiu didn't even know about some things.

And it was a charity auction. In front of so many guests, Zheng Rui gave these five items five very imaginative names. What did Zheng Rui want to do?

Could it be that... he was really going to expose them in front of so many people?

Was Zheng Rui crazy?

At this time, Zhuang Lin and Zheng Xiu could no longer keep a decent smile on their faces.

How can they remain calm when the secrets that have been buried deep in their hearts are exposed so nakedly in front of the public?

Drops of cold sweat dripped down Zheng Xiu's forehead. He didn't even care whether his voice would be heard by the people around him. He suddenly questioned Zhuang Lin beside him in a loud voice: "It can't be you..."

"Zheng Xiu!" Zhuang Lin's voice was full of anger. She couldn't hold back her false smile. She shook off the man's arm, with undisguised disgust in her eyes. "I haven't even questioned you yet, but you are the first to complain?"

"I didn't," Zheng Xiu took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. "I definitely didn't... tell Zheng Rui."

"You didn't, and I wouldn't be stupid either." Zhuang Lin also calmed down. She was crazy to tell Zheng Rui about this.

Since neither of them had revealed each other's past in front of Zheng Rui, there was only one reason why Zheng Rui knew about this -

Zheng Rui had been secretly investigating them for a long time!

What if he really made these public, then the fact that she and Zheng Xiu had agreed to marry could not be kept secret?

The inheritance -

Zhuang Lin's face suddenly changed, and she stretched out her hand to push Zheng Xiu: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and get that little bastard off for me!"

If she didn't get him off quickly, would she have to watch him continue to talk nonsense on the stage? She didn't want to be laughed at all the time!

While Zheng Rui hasn't said too much now, maybe they can still get away with it later.

If things really get out of hand, then they're done!

Zheng Xiu came to his senses, stood up and prepared to go on stage.

Ye Leyao listened carefully, paying attention to the reactions of Zhuang Lin and Zheng Xiu.

Seeing Zheng Xiu finally stand up, Ye Leyao couldn't help but shook his head:

[Unfortunately, it's too late. 】

Sure enough, the moment Ye Leyao finished speaking, Zheng Rui on the stage smiled slightly: "I know that you may not understand the names I chose, or even think they are a bit strange. Then let's think about it, why did my cousin insist on giving my mother such a pair of precious bracelets?"

Zhuang Lin no longer cared about her previous gentleness and dignity, and stood up and shouted: "Zheng Rui! Shut up--"

Zheng Rui on the stage did not stop at all, and even the smile on his mouth deepened a bit. He looked at the audience below with a smile, as if he was saying something very interesting: "The answer is very simple, of course it's because this pair of bracelets is a token of love between my mother and my cousin!"

There was a moment of silence in the auction venue, and then a burst of discussion broke out.

"What? Did I hear correctly?"

"The token of love with uncle Zheng Rui... Does that mean Zhuang Lin cheated?"

"The names of the other lots are the same..."

"So the couple is having their own affairs?"

[Yes, that's it! ]

The guests were excited, and Ye Leyao was even more excited than them.

[It seems that Zheng Xiu's cousin didn't come today? ]

[What a pity. ]

[But it doesn't matter, there is a little story behind each lot! We just need to listen to Zheng Rui tell us next! ]

Zheng Rui came here today to destroy the reputation of Zhuang Lin and Zheng Xiu, so he would only tell the little stories behind these lots in as much detail as possible, because he couldn't bear to miss any of them!

After talking about the first lot, Zheng Rui couldn't wait to introduce the second lot.

"Aunt's watch, as the name suggests, this is a birthday gift my aunt gave to my dad, in the second month after they confirmed their relationship..."

Zheng Rui paused as he spoke, as if thinking.

Just hearing this, Zheng Xiu's blood froze.

This happened so many years ago, and Zheng Rui could still remember it clearly?

Impossible?

The next second, Zheng Rui smiled confidently and said, "I remember now. I think I was only five years old at that time. They gathered together that day to celebrate my birthday, but you know, birthday parties, especially family parties, involve a lot of people, and my parents' minds were not on me. So while we were celebrating, my dad took my aunt to the room."

Zheng Xiu's face turned green immediately, and he quickly sped up and rushed to the stage.

But Zheng Rui continued to talk: "The two of them played in there for a long time. I remember they went in around noon, and they didn't come out until the dinner was about to start in the evening."

Zheng Rui said with some regret: "I don't know what they were playing in there. They didn't tell me at all. But to be able to play for so long, it must be a very interesting and exciting game, right?"

"Zheng Rui!" Zheng Xiu finally hurriedly walked onto the stage at this time. Hearing this terrible description, his face flushed.

"Are you crazy? Are you going to piss me off to death?!"

Ye Leyao was about to laugh like crazy.

[Zheng Rui is so good at description, the picture came to mind instantly! ]

The corners of Huo's father and mother's mouth curled up high.

Who said it wasn't.

That was a whole afternoon!

How could Zheng Xiu allow Zheng Rui to continue talking nonsense? He stepped forward and started to grab the microphone in Zheng Rui's hand: "Give me the microphone, get out! You are not allowed to talk nonsense anymore..."

The audience and guests were having a great time eating melons, and were interrupted at this time. They all looked a little unhappy, and some even worried.

"Can we continue...?"

Although it was not very polite, they really wanted to finish eating this big melon.

Ye Leyao was also anxious:

[Hey, have you helped Zheng Rui? Don't let his microphone be snatched away. ]

[The microphone was snatched away, what are we watching? ]

Huo's mother also glanced at Huo's father.

After all, Zheng Xiu is an adult, and Zheng Rui will definitely be the one who suffers in a one-on-one fight.

Just when both of them were thinking about whether to contact security, two bodyguards suddenly came out from the backstage and grabbed Zheng Xiu who was trying to grab the microphone from Zheng Rui without saying anything.

Ye Leyao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

[It seems that Zheng Rui has made sufficient preparations in advance. These two bodyguards don’t look like bodyguards for the auction.]

Huo’s father and mother nodded.

They really don’t look like bodyguards for the auction. They should be private bodyguards hired by Zheng Rui.

Since Zheng Rui brought bodyguards in advance, they don’t have to worry anymore.

The guests who were a little restless just now were relieved at this time and changed to a comfortable sitting position.

On the stage, the bodyguard ignored Zheng Xiu's struggle and took him off the stage.

Zheng Xiu was still struggling: "Let me go, let me go quickly - Zheng Rui, I warn you, if you keep talking nonsense, I -"

Zheng Rui didn't even look at Zheng Xiu, and didn't take his threat seriously at all. He even picked up the microphone and asked him with a smile: "Dad, what are you going to do? Isn't what I said the truth? Or did I remember the time wrong?"

[It's because it's the truth that he's anxious, hahaha. ]

Ye Leyao laughed.

[You have to remember one thing, the toxic fan only breaks down with the real sister-in-law! 】

Zheng Rui continued: "If I really remembered the time wrong, then I'll apologize to my dad first. If you're not satisfied with an afternoon, then I'll change it to half an hour?"

Zheng Xiu was so angry that he shouted: "You——"

"Then ten minutes?" Zheng Rui used a negotiating tone.

"You fucking——"

"Okay, okay," Zheng Rui's tone seemed helpless, "Then let's do as you say, Dad, one minute is fine? You and my aunt played games in the room for one minute, is that okay?"

【Hahahahahahahahahahaha. 】

Ye Leyao was about to laugh like crazy.

【You said he solved the problem in one minute, isn't that more uncomfortable than killing him! Just ask, which man is willing to be told that he only has one minute? ! 】

Qin Yao coughed slightly unnaturally.

Indeed.

Zheng Xiu was so angry at Zheng Rui's words that he almost fainted.

Zhuang Lin, who was standing in the audience, saw that Zheng Xiu not only failed to deal with Zheng Rui, but was also taken away by the bodyguards. She could no longer bear it and walked towards the stage without thinking, holding up her skirt. But before she got close, the other two bodyguards had blocked her way.

Zhuang Lin's expression twisted for a moment: "Get out of the way!"

The two bodyguards were unmoved.

Zhuang Lin was so angry that her whole body was shaking: "You..."

The guests watched this scene, trying hard to suppress the corners of their lips that wanted to rise, and looked away at the same time.

Keep going, keep going, the excitement will continue!

Zheng Rui also noticed the movement in the audience. He glanced in the direction of Zhuang Lin, as if he suddenly realized something: "It seems that my parents are a little anxious. Maybe I am too slow in introducing myself? Then I won't waste everyone's time. I will try to be brief."

Ye Leyao couldn't help laughing.

[What a top-level understanding. They are not anxious that you are too slow in introducing yourself. They are afraid that you will introduce yourself in too much detail! ]

[But don't worry about them. We like to listen anyway! ]

Qin Yao also had a smile in his eyes.

And in his opinion, Ye Leyao knows the art of speaking better than Zheng Rui.

Zhuang Lin was almost angry to death, but the bodyguards were holding her back, so she couldn't move at all.

Looking at the guests around her...

Zhuang Lin was even angrier.

They actually just sat there and watched the excitement, with no intention of helping her at all!

"Next is the third lot. This lot is not that old. It is a diamond ring given to my dad by his childhood sweetheart after he returned to China last year. According to my dad's childhood sweetheart, she doesn't mind that my dad is married, and doesn't mind that he has more people around him. This ring is the symbol of their invaluable love."

Hearing this, Ye Leyao's expression twisted for a moment.

[Not minding that he has more people around him... Such explosive words can actually be said...]

[Help, if Zheng Xiu is some kind of top-level Alpha, I can understand, but he doesn't look good! ]

Qin Yao agreed that Zheng Xiu was not good-looking, but who could explain to him what an Alpha is?

Both Huo's father and mother had some confusion on their faces.

Alpha?

Is he also a person?

Is he a kind of popular person?

The expressions of the guests in the audience were even more exciting. Zheng Rui's words just now were full of information and worth savoring!

"I remember Zheng Xiu's childhood sweetheart... seems to be the daughter of the He family?"

"Yes, it's He Na."

"Is there anyone from the He family here today?"

They are all from the same circle, and everyone remembers clearly how many people are in each family.

In addition, once people start eating melons, as long as the war does not draw to themselves, they have a kind of fearless spirit. Thinking that the He family is here, they naturally turn their heads to look over.

Ye Leyao also thought of this, turned his head, and laughed crazily in an instant.

[Hahahahahahahahahaha, they really came! And the whole family is here! ]

[Cuckolded, He's father's face is green! He's mother's expression is also very ugly! ]

The He family never thought that eating a melon would actually draw fire.

He's father and mother couldn't afford to lose this person, so they stood up and walked out.

He Na stood up and wanted to chase, not only was He's father shaking her hand away, but He's mother also raised her hand and slapped her.

"Do you remember that you are married?!" He's mother seemed to be angry. The voice was particularly loud, and Ye Leyao and his group, who were far away from them, could hear it clearly.

He Na was a little dazed by the slap from He's mother. She stood there for a long time before she picked up her skirt and followed.

Ye Leyao stared at He Na for a long time and felt that she looked familiar and her name was also familiar.

[He Na... seems to be He Shi's sister? ]

When they heard He Shi's name, both Huo's father and mother were stunned.

Why does this name sound familiar?

Then Ye Leyao said:

[He Na knew that Zheng Xiu had a family but she still had an affair with Zheng Xiu. 】

【And He Shi abandoned Su Rui in order to return to the He family and marry a woman, and Su Rui found my second brother to find a scapegoat for the child in her belly... In the end, in order to avenge my second brother, the He family even directly framed my family... But it was obviously Su Rui who came to provoke my second brother first, and why did your family's mess involve my second brother? 】

【Really two circles under the eyebrows, only blinking and not looking! 】

Ye Leyao's comment was sharp:

【If you ask me, it's really a nest of snakes and rats. 】

When Su Rui was mentioned, Huo's father and mother remembered it instantly.

So He Shi was Su Rui's ex-boyfriend, the illegitimate son of the He family?

Huo's father and mother looked at each other, and their mood was very complicated.

Their family almost broke up because of Su Rui! When will you dare to cause trouble to our family again in the future? We have never troubled you before!

Mother Huo immediately looked at Father Huo with a sullen face, the meaning was self-evident.

Father Huo understood her thoughts, and he decided to go back and tell the boss to stop all cooperation with the He family! Stop, stop all!

Qin Yao thought that most of the names that Ye Leyao could remember were people with melons.

No matter what kind of melon it is, it is definitely not a good melon. These people must be avoided when discussing cooperation.

So at this moment, Qin Yao and Father Huo and Mother Huo had the same idea-cut off cooperation with the He family as soon as they returned!

Zheng Rui on the stage saw the whole farce off the stage, and the smile on his face even deepened a few points, obviously very satisfied.

But Zheng Xiu and Zhuang Lin were on the verge of a breakdown, and he also promised the organizer that he would not delay the event for too long.

So Zheng Rui started to draw everyone's attention back: "Then I'm going to introduce the fourth lot. I think the name of this lot is the most direct, and I don't need to explain it too much. I'll just say that when this male college student gave my mother a gift, my mother was still dating someone else..."

"Zheng Rui - are you crazy?!"

"Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!"

Zhuang Lin couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed to the stage like crazy, regardless of the bodyguards holding her back.

But before she could take two steps, she was pinned down by the bodyguards behind her.

Zhuang Lin was so angry that she was shaking all over.

At this moment, she finally understood.

Zheng Rui did it on purpose.

Whether it was the sudden show of goodwill some time ago, or the initiative to propose a speech yesterday.

Zheng Rui had long seen through their vanity and knew that they had been putting on a show outside, so he designed such a trap, waiting for herself and Zheng Xiu to step into it today.

It's over...

everything is over!

Zhuang Lin no longer cared about her image and cursed loudly: "Little beast! I shouldn't have given birth to you!

Zheng Rui listened to her curse and looked at her ugliness, and the expression on his face did not change.

He just lowered his head slightly, smiled and said, "What a pity, Mom, it's useless for you to regret it now. You care too much about face. For the sake of face, you agreed to marry my father, and for the sake of face, you gave birth to me through in vitro fertilization. Aren’t all these your own choices? "

"Even today, for the so-called 'face', you agreed to let me give a speech on stage. Isn't this your own choice?"

Zheng Rui smiled: "People must always be responsible for their own choices. "

[Well said!]

If it wasn't for the wrong timing, Ye Leyao would have wanted to applaud.

After Zheng Rui finished speaking, he no longer looked at Zhuang Lin's expression and continued, "The last item is also the most eye-catching item today, a double crocodile bag. This is a bag my father ordered for a brother and sister three days ago. I don't quite understand why he wanted to give a gift to two people. Maybe it's because he thinks it's more fun for three people to play games together..."

[Hahahahahahahahaha——]

[God

damn

, it’s more fun when three
