Chapter 53: A Grand Celebration

Yu Wan pursed her lips. She didn't like the tone of being questioned.

What's more, anyone who is with Mrs. Qian must be a member of the Qian family, and she has no good feelings towards any member of the Qian family.

Liu Lianfang stepped forward and put on a show, "This is Yu Wan, who are you?"

Old Mrs. Qian was arrogant and didn't even bother to answer Liu Lianfang. Instead, Mrs. Qian took the initiative to explain, "This is the old lady of the Qian family, my mother-in-law."

Liu Lianfang was disdainful in her heart, but she remained calm on her face. "So that's the case. There are simply too many people here today, whether they are people we know or not. We don't have time to look through the list of people we don't know and check their identities one by one, so it's inevitable that we'll be careless, right?"

The hidden message is that the Qian family came even without an invitation.

Mrs. Qian looked uncomfortable, but she didn't know what to say.

With her mother-in-law around, it was naturally not her turn to speak. But even if her mother-in-law was not around, she would not dare to act presumptuously today. She had just been "shocked" not long ago, which made her realize that there are always people better than you, especially in other people's territory. Being arrogant can easily lead to losses.

Old Madam Qian didn't take Liu Lianfang's words to heart, so she didn't understand the sarcasm. She still looked at Yu Wan with contempt, "I heard that you can treat illnesses, so why don't you go to the Qian family for treatment?"

The tone of questioning was so loud that Yu Wan laughed. "You are so interesting. Why should I go to the Qian family for medical treatment?"

Madam Qian's face darkened. "You really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. You think you are great just by holding an auction. I tell you, an auction like this cannot be held as long as our Qian family wants to."

This time, not only Yu Wan laughed out loud, but Liu Lianfang also laughed out loud, "Old lady, have you forgotten that this is G City, not H City? I really don't believe that your Qian family can cancel this auction."

Old Madam Qian then glanced at Liu Lianfang and said, "How dare you interrupt the elders when they are talking? You really don't know the rules. Didn't your mother teach you how to behave?"

After that, Madam Qian turned to another person beside her and said, "Old Zhou, I think today's auction is not qualified to be held. What do you think?"

Only then did Yu Wan and Liu Lianfang notice a middle-aged man who had been following Mrs. Qian. He looked to be in his forties, wore a pair of glasses, and seemed easy to talk to, but he surprised everyone when he opened his mouth.

"If the old lady thinks that I am not qualified, then I will have someone investigate it thoroughly."

Liu Lianfang frowned and was about to ask who he was when someone came over and whispered, "He is Zhou Zhihui, the head of the Provincial Bureau of Culture and Arts."

Liu Lianfang: “…”

The relevant information was handled by professionals, including the application for the auction qualifications. She did not participate in the whole process, so she did not know Zhou Zhihui. She did know the last person in charge, but she has not had the opportunity to meet the new person in charge.

Liu Lianfang, who had not taken Mrs. Qian's words seriously, suddenly panicked. Originally, holding an auction required the approval of the Cultural Bureau, but now that the key person said it was not compliant, it would only take a few minutes to cancel it.

If that happens, she's done for. So many people come to the auction, only to have it called off at the last minute?

Not to mention that she will not be able to hold her head up in the circle in the future, how can she explain it to everyone right now?

Liu Lianfang bit her lip, feeling a little unwilling for a moment. She didn't expect that she would be bullied by others on her own turf.

She was not someone who could not bow her head, but in this case, it was not enough for her to just apologize. The old woman's target was obviously Yu Wan.

As expected, Mrs. Qian smiled sarcastically and looked at Yu Wan. "Look, what you think is so great is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Qian family. I want you to bow to me three times and apologize in person, and then come with me. This auction can continue, otherwise you can't bear the consequences."

Zhou Zhihui is a relative from her mother's side. He may not be able to help with other things, but he happens to have a say in matters like auctions.

Mrs. Qian was shocked when she saw the situation reversed. Although she had been married to the Qian family for many years, she had not met many relatives from her mother-in-law's family. She did not expect that the old lady had such connections and could play such an effect at the critical moment.

My back straightened up immediately, and I felt as if I had wiped out all my past humiliation.

The incident of her being scared to pee in front of Yu Wan was still fresh in her mind, and the shame made her feel extremely annoyed.

But due to Mr. Huo's relationship, she couldn't do anything to Yu Wan.

Naturally, I felt very depressed.

It's fine now.

Isn't this Yu Wan very tough? She refused to come despite being invited several times, and now she was slapped in the face in her own place. This is funny.

Mrs. Qian waited proudly for Yu Wan to bow and apologize.

Bowing and apologizing in public is much more embarrassing than her.

I have to say that the old witch's methods are much more cruel than hers. She directly tramples on other people's dignity and doesn't give them any face at all.

Liu Lianfang didn't expect the Qian family to be so excessive. Just as she was about to say something, she was stopped by Yu Wan.

Because there was a WeChat message on her phone.

When the message came at this critical moment, she had a feeling, it must be Xiaoyao!

Facts proved that Yu Wan's premonition was correct.

【Ding Dong! 】

【Xiaoyao: Don't say anything, let the Qian family handle it, just do what you are supposed to do. 】

With these words, Yu Wan felt relieved instantly and said to Liu Lianfang, "Let's go, there are still many things to do."

After that, Liu Lianfang was taken away.

Seeing Yu Wan's determination, Liu Lianfang couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Do you have any countermeasures?"

Of course Yu Wan had no idea, but since Xiaoyao said that, it must be okay, "Just trust me."

Liu Lianfang believed it.

When Madam Qian saw Yu Wan leave so rudely, her expression remained unchanged, but her words were chilling, "Young people nowadays don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. It's all because they have always had too much luck. After a few setbacks, they will know the severity of the situation."

When Mrs. Qian heard this, she knew that her mother-in-law would not let it go, and she felt a surge of anticipation.

Think about how powerful the Qian family is in H City, but now that they have arrived in G City, no one takes them seriously. They should make a big fuss to let others know how powerful the Qian family is.

Of course Zhou Zhihui understood what the old lady meant, and immediately took out his phone and made a call.

"Let's get some guys over here to check..."

It's called an investigation, but in fact it's just a formality, and then they do what needs to be done.

Yu Wan and Liu Lianfang checked some details, but when they were halfway through, they heard a noise coming from the door.

Someone must have come again, but it was so noisy, I thought it was not a good thing. Thinking of what Mrs. Qian said, could it be that she had asked someone to come? Liu Lianfang was a little panicked, "You stay here and watch, I'll go out and take a look."

Yu Wan still had the list of items in her hand, but she was still worried and followed him out.

Sure enough, a group of people came in through the door.

A vast and majestic feeling.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but look over.

Old Mrs. Qian also looked over, and then a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"Well done, it's a grand show."
