Fu Sisi was furious. She turned around and glared at Chu Yu, gritting her teeth as she said, "I won't fall for your tricks this time. This sandalwood bracelet is so ugly, I don't want it. Since you've already put down a price, you can be the sucker this time."
Hearing her say that, everyone burst into laughter.
Fu Sisi wasn't fooled; this time, Chu Yu was the one who got the short end of the stick.
Despite the ridicule from the crowd, Chu Yu remained calm. Seeing that no one else was bidding, the auctioneer immediately announced that Chu Yu had won the sandalwood bracelet.
The auction ended quickly, and Fu Sisi was the most bidder at the event.
Everyone congratulated her. Fu Sisi looked at the Water Spirit Pearl on the stage, a smug smile playing on her lips, and provocatively said to Chu Yu:
"So what if you tricked me into being a sucker? The Water Spirit Pearl still ended up in my hands. Meanwhile, you wasted over ten million yuan on this unremarkable sandalwood bracelet. If your sugar daddy found out, he'd probably be furious and dump you."
Faced with her taunts, Jiang Huai'an's face darkened. He was about to retaliate when Chu Yu stopped him.
She glanced at the Water Spirit Pearl, sighed with feigned regret, and said, "You are indeed very generous to spend 1 billion to buy this Water Spirit Pearl. However, the spiritual energy of this Water Spirit Pearl has been exhausted. It is now an inanimate object, worth at most 100 million. You spent 1 billion to buy it. You are definitely a sucker."
Everyone was shocked. The water spirit pearl had no spiritual energy; it was already an inanimate object!
Fu Sisi's expression changed, and she pointed at her angrily, "Nonsense! This Water Spirit Pearl is full of spiritual energy, how could it be an inanimate object? You are clearly jealous of me."
"You woman, you're up to no good! First you schemed against me, and now you're badmouthing the Water Spirit Orb. You're utterly despicable! A clown like you has no right to participate in this high-end auction. Where is the auction organizer? Throw her out right now!"
"Who dares to kick her out?"
A cold and authoritative voice suddenly rang out, and everyone turned around to see Fu Yunche leading his men over with an imposing aura.
Upon seeing him, Fu Sisi's eyes lit up. Although she was from a branch of the Fu family, she was still Fu Yunche's relative, and she would usually call him Second Brother.
She immediately stepped forward, feigning resentment: "Second Brother, you've come! This woman has bullied me; you must stand up for me!"
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a pang of worry for Chu Yu.
As everyone knows, Fu Yunche is a decisive and ruthless man. It is said that if he stomps his foot, the capital city will tremble.
Fu Sisi is a member of the Fu family, and Fu Yunche is extremely protective of his own. He will definitely not let Chu Yu off the hook. Chu Yu is doomed.
Song Ze, standing to the side, secretly complained that Chu Yu was Fu Ye's wife, yet Fu Sisi actually went to Fu Ye to complain about her.
Ha! Isn't this just courting death?
While the unsuspecting crowd thought Chu Yu was doomed, Fu Yunche's handsome face darkened, and he rebuked Fu Sisi: "I saw what just happened. I know who is right and who is wrong. Fu Sisi, you were the one who bullied others by taking advantage of your power, and now you're trying to play the victim. Is this how the Fu family raised you?"
The cold, sharp words sent a jolt through Fu Sisi. She hurriedly retorted, "Second Brother, that's not how it is. It was clearly Chu Yu..."
"Shut up!"
Fu Yunche shouted and looked at Chu Yu, saying, "She is someone I invited. If you target her, you are targeting me."
Fu Sisi looked shocked.
Chu Yu was actually invited by him, and the sugar daddy Chu Yu is hooking up with is him?!
The way everyone looked at Chu Yu changed.
No wonder she dared to confront Fu Sisi head-on; it turns out her sugar daddy is Fu Yunche.
Fu Sisi was both angry and anxious. She never expected that Chu Yu would be able to climb up to Fu Yunche. It was like a toad eating swan meat. She was indignant and anxiously advised, "Second brother, you must not be deceived by this woman. She was born a jinx, bringing disaster to the family. She grew up in the countryside and is vulgar and vicious..."
"Shut up!"
Fu Yunche angrily interrupted her.
He had already investigated Chu Yu's background. Instead of disliking her, he felt very sorry for her. She was abandoned by the Chu family when she was a child and was trafficked for so many years. She had suffered a lot, but her suffering was seen as a sin by the Chu family and Fu Sisi.
Absolutely despicable!
"You're outspoken and have no empathy. Is this how the Fu family elders raised you? You don't need to come to work at the group tomorrow, and you don't need to negotiate that cooperation in Europe either."
Fu Sisi's expression changed instantly.
Fu Yunche actually kicked her out of the company!
She had worked so hard to break into the upper echelons of the group and secure that multi-billion dollar deal in Europe, but Fu Yunche just kicked her out for Chu Yu's sake.
She opened her mouth to argue, but Fu Yunche gave her a cold look, and Fu Sisi trembled, too frightened to speak again.
If she continues to cause trouble and angers Fu Yunche, her whole family might go bankrupt.
"Apologize to Chu Yu!" Fu Yunche commanded coldly.
Fu Sisi gritted her teeth and reluctantly apologized to Chu Yu: "Miss Chu, I'm sorry."
Chu Yu snorted lightly, showing no intention of forgiving her.
Seeing Chu Yu's attitude, Fu Sisi was furious and gritted her teeth, saying, "Chu Yu, I've already apologized to you, why are you still acting like this?"
Chu Yu raised an eyebrow: "You apologized, so why should I accept it? Besides, if apologies were enough, what would be the point of having police?"
Fu Sisi was so angry she felt like she was going to vomit blood. She was about to curse when Fu Yunche gave her a cold look that made her tremble and dare not utter another word.
Seeing Fu Sisi's frustrated appearance, everyone's gaze towards Chu Yu changed, especially those who had previously looked down on Chu Yu; their eyes now held her in awe.
Offending her is equivalent to offending Fu Yunche; provoking her is courting death.
Seeing this, Jiang Huai'an chuckled and leaned closer to Chu Yu, whispering, "Your husband is quite something, a real wife-protecting maniac."
Chu Yu smiled slightly and mentally gave Fu Yunche a thumbs up.
Still unwilling to accept her humiliation, Fu Sisi thought of the Water Spirit Pearl and said urgently, "Chu Yu just said that there's something wrong with the Water Spirit Pearl I bought. She's deliberately trying to cause trouble, she..."
"Who said she was deliberately trying to cause trouble!"
A cold voice interrupted her, and an elderly man with white hair and beard, dressed in a black Tang suit, stepped forward.
He is Mr. Lu, the initiator of this auction.
Mr. Lu is the head of the powerful Lu family, a famous collector, and a highly respected figure in Beijing. Ordinary people dare not offend him.
Mr. Lu had someone bring over the Water Spirit Pearl, and pointing at it, he said, "Miss Chu Yu is right. I had already had a metaphysician examine it. The spiritual energy of this Water Spirit Pearl has been exhausted, and it's not as magical as the rumors say."
Everyone was shocked; what Chu Yu said was actually true.
Fu Sisi felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
