Chapter 22 Apology
After hearing Jiang Tiantong's offer, Huangfu Yuanzhou, Song Wenchang and others looked at Jiang Tiantong in surprise.
Of course, they were not surprised by Jiang Tiantong's generosity. In fact, they didn't really take one or two million seriously.
As Jiang Tiantong has taken over the family business in full, he has no pressure at all to take out one or two hundred million yuan.
But they had never heard that Jiang Tiantong was interested in calligraphy before, so why did he suddenly bid for this calligraphy today?
"Tiantong, do you know this guy named Tang Shuo?" Huangfu Yuanzhou asked.
"It should be a friend." Jiang Tiantong replied indifferently.
Huangfu Yuanzhou glanced at Song Wenchang meaningfully, then said with a smile, "Then you'd better introduce him to someone later. Your friend's handwriting is really good."
"Yes, I also want to meet him." Song Wenchang added.
Then everyone heard the offer of 'three million', so they turned their attention to Jiang Tiantong again, wanting to see how Jiang Tiantong would react.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Tiantong looked at the stage indifferently, as if he didn't hear anyone competing with him.
Huangfu Yuanzhou took a sip of wine and thought to himself: Interesting.
…………
Before Lu Wanqi could recover from the joy that someone was willing to spend money to buy Tang Shuo's calligraphy, she was stunned by several consecutive offers.
She could understand 100,000 yuan, and would even be happy for Tang Shuo, but 1 million, 2 million, or 3 million were unacceptable to her.
Although the auction price of the charity dinner may be a bit inflated, it is still a genuine high price of three million.
Tang Shuo's calligraphy may be good, but the price is really too outrageous.
Even Lu Wanqi, who was not scheming at all, noticed that there was something fishy about this matter, so how could Tang Shuo not see it?
As early as when he heard the offer of one million, Tang Shuo realized that things were getting out of control. Then Jiang Tiantong offered two million, but he didn't expect that the strange woman would raise the price by another one million.
Although Tang Shuo was not a suspicious person, at this time, he began to doubt the other party's motives. What was the purpose?
…………
The host was also shocked by the three million offer. He was stunned for a long time before he said, "Is there a higher offer than three million?"
Seeing that no one made an offer, the host announced directly: "Congratulations to this lady."
The most depressed person on the scene must be Li Jia. He really wanted to rush onto the stage and curse at the person who paid to bid for the calligraphy.
What the hell is going on.
He wanted to insult Tang Shuo, but ended up promoting him instead.
Li Jia was furious. He gritted his teeth and turned around to walk towards Tang Shuo. Since the covert approach didn't work, he had to do it openly.
"Security." Li Jia called out to the two men in black in the corner, pointed at Tang Shuo and said, "This guy doesn't have an invitation, he's a liar, kick him out."
Tang Shuo gave a helpless smile. If you don't hurt some people, they will never know that there are some people in this world who cannot be provoked.
The two security guards in black hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you have an invitation?"
Lu Wanqi stepped forward and said, "He is my assistant. I brought him in."
"Assistant?" Li Jia sneered and said, "I think it's more than just an assistant. Is this guy good in bed? Otherwise, try me. I'm definitely..."
Before Li Jia finished speaking, Tang Shuo moved.
He took two lightning-fast steps to Li Jia, stretched out a hand, grabbed Li Jia's neck and lifted him up.
Li Jia, who was lifted into the air, could not make a sound and could only struggle continuously but it was of no use.
No one expected that someone would dare to beat someone up here. Several people who knew Li Jia realized that there was going to be something interesting to watch today.
The two security guards in black never thought that the other party would dare to hurt people under their watchful eyes. By the time they reacted, Li Jia had already been lifted up by Tang Shuo.
They were all Li Ruiyi's personal bodyguards, so naturally they knew Li Jia. In this situation, it was only right and proper for them to subdue the troublemaker.
Seeing the two men fighting, Tang Shuo threw Li Jia in his hand directly at one of the men in black, and then gave the other man in black a fierce high kick in the face.
The hall was instantly in uproar.
Isn't it a slap in the face of both the Song and Li families to cause trouble at a banquet jointly hosted by the Song and Li families?
Seeing this, the other bodyguards in the banquet hall immediately surrounded them. Song Wenchang and Li Ruiyi, who had been standing in the front row, also came over, and the auction was temporarily interrupted.
After Tang Shuo and Jiang knocked down the two men in black, they walked over to Li Jia again, stepped on Li Jia's chest, and said, "Apologize to her."
Li Jia, lying on the ground, touched his neck with both hands and gasped for breath, like a yellow cow that fell to the ground due to overwork.
After Li Ruiyi learned that it was his cousin Li Jia who had a conflict with Tang Shuo, whose calligraphy had just been bought for three million, he cursed him as a waste and walked over first.
Seeing his cousin Li Jia being stepped on, Li Ruiyi walked up with a sullen face and asked, "What's going on?"
Tang Shuo ignored the other party's question, stepped on Li Jia with more force, and repeated: "Apologize."
Li Jia was out of breath and couldn't speak for a while, but now that he saw Li Ruiyi coming over, he felt more confident and would not bow his head. He stammered, "Cousin, save me."
Song Wenchang, Huangfu Yuanzhou and Jiang Tiantong gathered around, and the expressions on the three faces were very subtle.
Song Wenchang looked at Tang Shuo, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
Huangfu Yuanzhou smiled, as if he really liked the scene, and nodded secretly.
Jiang Tiantong came here because he heard Tang Shuo's name. He took a look at the situation in front of him, but still didn't say anything and stood there silently.
Tang Shuo stepped on his foot again and said, "Apologize."
Seeing Tang Shuo surrounded by people, Lu Wanqi stepped forward, tugged at his sleeve, and said anxiously, "Tang Shuo, forget it, let's go."
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Tang Shuo turned around and said to Lu Wanqi with a smile. "Wait a moment. We'll leave once he apologizes."
…………
After Jiang Tianwei arrived at the banquet hall, he felt a little uncomfortable and went to the bathroom, and just missed the auction of Tang Shuo's calligraphy.
After coming out, he saw a group of people gathered together, and his sister was among the crowd, so he immediately went over.
After seeing Tang Shuo in the field, Jiang Tianwei shouted in surprise, "Tang Shuo," before he could figure out what was going on.
Then he realized that something was wrong.
Tang Shuo turned his head to look at Jiang Tianwei, smiled and nodded at him.
Huangfu Yuanzhou smiled and said to Jiang Tiantong beside him: "Is this your friend? Quite interesting."
Jiang Tiantong neither denied nor admitted it.
She began to consider how to handle the matter simply and effectively, as well as the pros and cons of her intervention.
Li Jia felt that his ribs on his chest seemed to be about to break, and the other party was still increasing his strength. He felt as if he would be trampled to death by the other party at any time, but his cousin was hesitant to take action.
How could he care about his face at this moment? So he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry..."
Tang Shuo chuckled, raised his foot, and said to Lu Wanqi beside him, "It's settled, let's go."
Lu Wanqi couldn't wait to leave this place of trouble. She didn't even care about the white jade bracelet she had taken a picture of. She walked forward, took Tang Shuo's arm and prepared to walk towards the door.
Li Ruiyi suddenly sneered and said grimly, "You want to leave like this?"
Tang Shuo stopped and looked at Li Ruiyi, then asked himself, "Are you going to keep me for dinner? No thanks."
Li Ruiyi turned his head to look at Jiang Tiantong and said, "He is your friend?"
Jiang Tiantong didn't shy away from it and admitted directly: "Yeah."
"For your sake, I'll spare his life." After Li Ruiyi said this, he winked at the man next to him.
After receiving the order, the man jumped out immediately, stretched his neck, and then nodded to Tang Shuo.
Tang Shuo said to Lu Wanqi beside him, "Go wait for me over there."
Lu Wanqi also knew that the situation was no longer under her control, so she took a few steps back and stood aside.
In fact, her mind had long been occupied by another thing, and she heard clearly the conversation between Li Ruiyi and that woman just now.
How did Tang Shuo know this woman who was so beautiful that even she was jealous?
