Chapter 86 What's Left
Ji Minghuan's face was already a little ugly, and now that Nie Yao had exposed his inner thoughts, he was so angry that his face turned pale and blue.
Originally, he had received news from Nie Jinxi that Nie Yao was attending the charity auction on behalf of the Nie family, and he wanted to use this opportunity to severely grind down Nie Yao's spirit!
But he never expected that this auction not only failed to wear down Nie Yao's spirit, but instead made her come over and laugh at him!
If Li Jinxing hadn't sent someone to buy the collection that Nie Yao brought at a price that exceeded its market value, disrupting his rhythm, Nie Yao wouldn't dare to mock him so arrogantly now!
Ji Minghuan cursed Li Jinxing again in his heart when he thought of this. He then sneered at Nie Yao in front of him and said, "You're wrong. I'm not here to pick a fight. I just want to remind you. Don't think that just because Li Jinxing sent someone to bid up the price for your Nie family's collection, it really means you've found him to be your Nie family's backer..."
Nie Yao scoffed at his bizarre theory, shook her head, and asked, "Ji Minghuan, your train of thought is truly bizarre! If you think this is just seeking support from Li Jinxing, then why did you bid for such an expensive ancient Egyptian artifact? Don't tell me you're just trying to do charity..."
The answer that Ji Minghuan was about to say was immediately blocked by Nie Yao's words.
Facing Nie Yao's mocking smile, Ji Minghuan replied coldly, "The grand finale collection is worth the price, so naturally there will be many people bidding. This is your first time attending an auction like this, so I understand why you haven't witnessed such a grand occasion before!"
Nie Yao burst out laughing, feeling that Ji Minghuan's condescending attitude was somewhat funny.
"What are you laughing at?" Ji Minghuan frowned slightly.
"Nothing. I admit, this is my first time attending an auction like this..." Nie Yao shrugged and smiled nonchalantly, "But does your confidence come from your father, the president of the Chamber of Commerce?"
She glanced at President Ji, who was still chatting with someone not far away, and sighed softly, "What a pity! Your father was so attentive chatting with Li Jinxing earlier! If I'm guessing correctly, your father wanted you to take pictures of the collection that Li Jinxing donated, right?"
Ji Minghuan didn't expect Nie Yao to guess this. His brows furrowed even more tightly, and he stared at Nie Yao intently. He suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"I don't care what you think of me. Without the Nie family, I'm still myself. There's no difference. But without your father, the president, and the Ji family, what do you have left?"
Nie Yao said this lightly, then turned and left, too lazy to look at his reaction, nor did she notice the pale face that Ji Minghuan turned after hearing this.
"Well said..." At this moment, a round of applause rang out from beside Nie Yao. Nie Yao turned her head and saw a familiar-looking man standing in front of her.
"You are..." Nie Yao looked at the tall man and couldn't remember his origins for a moment.
"Lu Yiyu, do you remember?" Lu Yiyu smiled slightly and reminded her politely.
"So it's you..." Nie Yao suddenly realized, looked at him seriously for a moment, smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I didn't recognize you at the moment..."
