The other side.
Lu Tingqian looked around for almost three hours but still couldn't find the person he was looking for. He couldn't help but tug at his shirt and tie in frustration.
The woman next to him noticed it and immediately moved closer to him, asking with concern, "Mr. Lu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Tingqian glanced at her and uttered a light "hmm." He then pulled his phone from his pocket and entered the pinned "Chenxi Squad" group chat. He edited a message and said, "How's it going over there? I've been searching like crazy but still can't find anyone. Could it be that he didn't get the message and didn't come?"
Xiao Anzi: [It shouldn't be. The boss specifically had people in the black market spread the news to stir up some hype. As long as he's still in this circle, or has people in this circle, he'll definitely know.]
Mo Xiaodao: [Yes.]
Xiao Anzi: [Let's wait a little longer. Even if we can't find it now, there should be some activity when the Star Core auction starts. We can take a closer look then.]
Boss's Little Darling: [Fuck! Can I say I'm jealous? Look at us. We all had to come to him on our own initiative before we finally found him. When we got to that guy named Fu, he even put his treasured Star Core up for auction just to lure him out! Fuck! Comparison is the thief! I must be a fake little darling!]
Mo Xiaodao: [Finally recognized the truth, change your name.]
The boss’s little darling: [……]
The boss's little darling: [I refuse, I won't change even if you kill me]
Mo Xiaodao: [But it's definitely not like the boss's style. I even moved my operating room here.]
Xiao Anzi: [[Frowning] Could it be that Xiao Yunting is sick and the boss is anxious to find someone to treat him?]
Lu Tingqian looked at the news on the screen, his brows furrowed tightly, and the irritation in his eyes became more intense.
The woman beside him had been secretly observing his expression. Seeing this, her eyes flashed, and she reached out to hold his arm, softening her voice and saying, "Mr. Lu, have you encountered any troubles? If you are unhappy, you can tell me."
"I may not be able to help, but I will definitely be a good listener. Some things will only get worse if you keep them in your heart. Maybe speaking them out will make you feel better."
Lu Tingqian glanced at her again, his eyes falling on the woman's arm around her.
Her fingers are slender, with exquisite manicures, and are well-maintained to be fair and delicate.
Lu Tingqian frowned and said in a cold voice, "Let go."
Chi Xuan was slightly stunned and wanted to explain something, but when she met the man's cold and irritated gaze, her heart inexplicably tightened, and finally she slowly let go of his hand.
There was a hint of grievance on his face: "Boss Lu..."
It's been three days, and Chi Xuan really can't understand this man.
He took her out, took her shopping, bought her whatever she wanted, and even brought her to such a large international event. It is no exaggeration to say that he granted her every request.
But he just didn't touch her.
They lived in the same presidential suite, but he lived in the master bedroom and she lived in the second bedroom. No matter how much she hinted at temptation, he remained unmoved, and his determination was comparable to that of Tang Monk.
All the preparations she had made were of no use at all. She was so angry that her teeth were itching, but there was nothing she could do.
Chi Xuan glanced at the man who then began to look around again. Finally, she couldn't help it and said in a slightly stiff tone, "Mr. Lu, what do you mean?"
Lu Tingqian was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Chi Xuan almost vomited blood, and almost wanted to ask him directly if he was not capable enough and brought her out just to pretend!
But looking at the man's masculine face, she finally held back, and her chest hurt from holding it back.
Lu Tingqian wanted to ask her what she meant.
He came out this time to accept the task from his boss to help find Fu Yunting. It was not appropriate for him to attend some occasions alone, so he asked his subordinates to help him find a female companion from the entertainment company under the group.
I told you from the beginning to find someone who is quiet and sensible, and just serves as a vase.
But no one knew which of the two had gone wrong. The actress Chi who was found was quiet and sensible, but she was not honest at all.
She would flaunt herself in front of him whenever she had the chance, and it was obvious that she wanted to sleep with him.
But who is this Lu Tingqian?
He's a 34-year-old virgin!
Is it possible to give his extremely precious first time to such a strange woman?
She is dreaming!
Thinking of this, Lu Tingqian became even more annoyed. He looked at Chi Xuan with eyes that were not eyes and nose that were not nose, and he didn't want to even look at her any more.
As he turned his head, his sight suddenly stopped and fell on a window on the third floor facing the auction table.
At this time, the window was pushed open, and a familiar figure leaned casually on the window frame, looking at the items that had just been put on the auction table with great interest.
Who else could it be if not our own boss?
As if noticing his gaze, Xie Xihe followed him, met his gaze, nodded casually, and then turned back to the auction table.
Lu Tingqian immediately became excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
He took a look at the items on the auction table and found that it was a set of fortune-telling tools that looked quite decent. He immediately thought of the time when his boss had saved his life from a distance.
OK!
purchase!
Must buy!
As soon as the auctioneer announced the start of the auction, Lu Tingqian pressed the bid increase button ten times without thinking twice, raising the starting price of 50 million to 100 million, doubling the price.
Everyone: “…”
Where did this stupid and rich guy come from?
Even Chi Xuan, who was still thinking about Lu Tingqian's previous look, was frightened by him. She felt that the price increase seemed to be pressing on her heart, making her heart beat non-stop.
What is a chaebol tycoon!
That’s it!
He is handsome, rich, willing to spend money, and has no family to burden him. Apart from being a little older, he has no other problems. No wonder Lu Tingqian has become one of the most famous bachelors in the Beijing circle. Isn't he much better than those male celebrities and movie stars who only have good looks?
A clear and elegant face flashed through Chi Xuan's mind, but she threw it aside the next moment and continued to look at the man beside her with affection.
It’s a pity that the seductive glance was cast at a blind man and Lu Tingqian was unaware of it.
His attention was on the auction table.
After he directly raised the price to 100 million, some people who were still eager to bid immediately gave up. The auctioneer was also straightforward and waited for a few seconds before starting the countdown.
But just as the countdown was about to end, a crisp "ding dong" sounded, accompanied by a mechanical female voice: "Box 3-1, one bid increase, the current bid is 150 million."
Lu Tingqian: “!!!”
Box 3-1, isn’t that the box where our boss is?
Without even thinking, Lu Tingqian knew who was going against him. He couldn't help but curse "Fuck" in his heart, and then pressed the price increase button again without hesitation.
