Having exhausted all other options, Jiang Qianqian decided to involve her older sister!
However, before she could even open her mouth, Feng Jiu slapped her hard across the face, dislocating her pointed chin.
She was speechless for a moment!
Lin Yu sneered and said, "I'm not interested in who your sister is! However, your rudeness is definitely a result of her failing to raise you properly!"
"Go back and tell your parents that they must come to my door to apologize in person within a week, or else your sister will chew up your food and feed it to you for the rest of your life! Humph!"
After saying this, Lin Yu led Feng Jiu into the building without looking back!
"Qianqian!!"
Xiao Lan was so frightened that she trembled all over and quickly ran over to support Jiang Qianqian.
"Ah ba ah ba ah ba!"
Jiang Qianqian's jaw was agape, and she couldn't speak. She could only keep babbling, and Xiao Lan couldn't understand what she was saying.
But she could tell that Jiang Qianqian was in a lot of pain.
In this situation, the two were unable to attend the auction and quickly returned to their car to rush to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Lin Yu and Feng Jiu had already arrived at the auction venue.
This auction isn't open to just anyone. According to the rules of Longxuan Pavilion, today's auction is a Level 1 auction, and you need to have at least five million in funds to be eligible to participate!
However, this was naturally not a difficult task for Lin Yu and Feng Jiu. Feng Jiu simply took out a card and passed the verification.
The two arrived at the venue, which was quite unique.
The layout of the venue was somewhat similar to that of an ancient teahouse, with dozens of large round tables, all of which were now full of people.
Lin Yu and Feng Jiu did not go inside, but sat down at a round table on the outer perimeter.
Because the table was spacious, it wasn't full yet, and most of the people there were young.
When Lin Yu sat down, the young men and women around him glanced at him, but none of them said anything.
Being able to get here already demonstrates their strength. However, the two were dressed rather plainly. Several girls glanced at them and then looked away with disdain.
Before the auction even started, several young people around them began chatting.
The most discussed topic was undoubtedly the items auctioned today.
"Hey, have you heard? The grand finale of today's show, 'Landscape Painting,' is said to be worth a hundred million!"
"It's not just one hundred million. I heard from my dad that several big shots came today, so two hundred million is not out of the question!"
"I heard that Young Master Hu has already said he plans to bid 300 million to buy this painting in order to curry favor with Miss Jiang!"
"Three hundred million! My God, to casually spend three hundred million on a painting, in the whole country, probably only someone like Young Master Hu, a young master of one of the four great families, could afford that!"
"Miss Jiang has really struck it rich this time!"
The crowd buzzed with discussion, exclamations of amazement rising and falling.
Three hundred million is a number that is beyond the reach of even those scions of wealthy families like them. After all, for some wealthy families, assets of one or two hundred million are already quite remarkable!
At this moment, a bright-eyed woman sitting in the empty seat next to Lin Yu sneered disdainfully, "Things obtained through despicable means, let alone three hundred million, even if it were thirty billion, would still be filthy! What's there to be proud of!"
The woman had a touch of heroism between her brows, and her bright eyes flashed with a sharp edge. Her words were surprisingly bold.
When she opened her mouth, everyone was stunned.
After all, given Jiang Xinxin's current status in the Guannei area, who would dare to speak ill of her in public or behind her back?
However, this girl's background is also extremely unusual.
At least when she said that, none of the young people present dared to respond.
However, a man with sword-like eyebrows, dressed in dark green, standing next to the woman suddenly spoke up, "Lan Ling, although your Lan family is considered a top-tier wealthy family in the pass, that's because the Huang family used to take care of you! Now that the Huang family has fallen on hard times, you can no longer speak so casually as before!"
The woman named Lan Ling, her face flushed from drinking some red wine, looked up, glanced at everyone present, and said with a sneer, "What? Can't I speak? Don't forget, we're all classmates with Ziming! I think you all know better than anyone what kind of person Jiang Xinxin is! I think you all know how Huang Ziming died! He was killed by that bitch!!"
After Lan Ling finished speaking, she slammed her wine glass on the table. Although her voice wasn't very loud, the noise still startled some people at the next table, and everyone turned to look at her in surprise.
The Huang family's affairs were already common knowledge throughout the region, and everyone was tacitly aware of Huang Ziming's drug trafficking activities.
How could a dignified young marquis do such a despicable thing, especially hiding filth in his newly purchased mansion?
This is clearly a frame-up!
However, the interests involved behind this are far too great, so who would dare to make any reckless criticisms, especially in public?
"Lan Ling, are you crazy??"
The man with the sword-like eyebrows panicked and quickly whispered a reminder, "Stop making trouble! I talked to my uncle before. Since the Huang family's incident, your Lan family's business has plummeted. He's too busy trying to befriend Miss Jiang right now. If your words are overheard by someone with ulterior motives and reach Miss Jiang's ears, how will your Lan family develop in the future?"
He couldn't help but be anxious, because he and Lan Ling were engaged, and their families were old friends!
If something happens to the Lan family, their family will probably be implicated as well!
Lan Ling chuckled lightly, glanced at him sideways, and said disdainfully, "Zhao Chen, do you know why I've been hesitant to agree to get engaged to you?"
"I despise your sycophantic attitude!"
"You, an officer? If all soldiers in the Great Xia were as spineless as you, they would have been attacked on their doorstep long ago!" Lan Ling said mercilessly.
"You!" The man with sword-like eyebrows looked extremely ugly, his face turning pale and then red.
I never expected my fiancée to be so disrespectful to me, saying such things about me in front of everyone!
Lan Ling snorted softly, ignoring him, and continued drinking her red wine.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. A woman standing nearby quickly changed the subject, saying to the man with the sword-like eyebrows, "Brother Chen, didn't you just graduate this year? Why are you going to the army for a report for duty already? Which unit were you assigned to?"
As soon as she said that, everyone else looked over.
Among this group of friends, Zhao Chen is the most successful. He followed the path arranged by his parents from a young age, went to a military academy, specifically a branch of the National Defense University, the kind of academy where graduates could become officers.
Zhao Chen's expression softened slightly. He snorted and said smugly, "Since we're on the topic, I won't hide it from you. I've been selected by the Floating Pagoda Army and they're planning to transfer me there, starting from the battalion level!"
"Battalion level??"
Everyone was taken aback!
