Chapter 146: Treasure Appraisal Conference within the Circle



"Ah Hong, where are you going next? Should we drive back to you?"

Ah Hong was not intimidated by the sight of the two gangs fighting. As expected, she had seen a lot of big scenes. After hearing what Huo Qiqi said, Ah Hong said a little embarrassedly, "Boss Huo, can you help me find a place to stay? I'll pay for it. Huang Mao has come out, and I'm afraid he won't let me go."

Huo Qiqi looked at Ah Hong and nodded gently. "How about this, Ah Hong, please stay in the guest room of my villa first. There's security there, so your safety will be fine. Don't worry about Huang Mao, he'll be skinned alive this time."

"Thank you, Boss Huo. You and Meimei are both good people. My parents passed away early, and I stayed in an orphanage the whole time. After I became an adult, I started to make a living in society. That's when I met Huangmao. I did a lot of petty thefts with them. When I wanted to quit, they beat me up. It was Meimei who took pity on me and pulled me out of the quagmire. You are all good people."

Huo Qiqi shook her head and reluctantly accepted the good guy card given by Ah Hong.

After settling Ah Hong down, Zou Meimei called. It turned out that Zou Meimei knew that Ah Hong was framed by Huang Mao and almost killed Huo Qiqi. What's more, Huang Mao also lied to Ah Hong that he was kidnapped by some gangsters. This ruined Zou Meimei's reputation and was also a slap in the face of the Zou family. Zou Chuang had already sent someone to teach Huang Mao a lesson.

When Zou Meimei learned that Ah Hong was at Huo Qiqi's house, she hung up the phone and rushed to Huo Qiqi's house in a hurry. The two villas were very close to each other.

Seeing that Ah Hong was safe and sound, Zou Meimei's eyes were red, and the two little sisters talked for a long time. It turned out that this was the first time they met since Zou Meimei returned to China.

The reason why Zou Meimei is so good to Ah Hong is that, on the one hand, Ah Hong is not a bad person by nature and has never done anything harmful to the world; on the other hand, Zou Meimei once inadvertently helped Ah Hong drive away the gangster who wanted to harass her.

Huo Qiqi gave the space to Ah Hong and Zou Meimei. One hour later, Zou Meimei came to Huo Qiqi's study.

Huo Qiqi was envious, "You and Ah Hong have a really good relationship? As soon as she heard that you were in trouble, she asked me for help. She really is a silly girl."

Zou Meimei lowered her head in embarrassment and thanked Huo Qiqi sincerely. After all, if Huang Mao hadn't been trying to rescue her, Huo Qiqi would definitely not have put herself in danger.

"Qiqi, there is a treasure appraisal conference tomorrow. Do you want to attend?" Zou Meimei sat on Huo Qiqi's desk, her feet shaking constantly.

"This is the first time I've heard of a treasure appraisal conference. Can you tell me about it in detail?" Huo Qiqi put down the materials in her hand and said with great interest.

After listening to Zou Meimei's introduction, Huo Qiqi realized that this treasure appraisal conference was temporarily organized and only people in the top wealthy circles knew about it. The reason Huo Qiqi didn't know was because she had always wanted to not fit in, so everyone also consciously didn't tell her the news.

This treasure appraisal conference is divided into cultural relics, books, calligraphy and paintings, antiques and jade, etc.

Huo Qiqi knew that collectibles usually referred to pens, inkstones, paper, and various artworks related to them. Although there were many collectibles in her system space, she also wanted to see what was different about the collectibles at this treasure appraisal conference. After all, if they were not top-quality items, who would dare to show them to the eyes of the top rich people?

As for jadeite, Huo Qiqi has always accepted it. You know, her system space has no resistance to top-grade jadeite.

Early the next morning, Zou Meimei woke up Huo Qiqi. She wanted to take Ah Hong out to relax, but Ah Hong knew her identity. If she went to such a party, she would definitely be looked down upon. She also didn't want to be ruthlessly humiliated, and Zou Meimei and Huo Qiqi would also be laughed at.

Seeing Ah Hong's resolute look, Zou Meimei stopped trying to persuade her. After a brief chat, Zou Meimei and Huo Qiqi and the others set off for the treasure appraisal conference.

"Meimei, do you know who organized this treasure appraisal conference?" Huo Qiqi casually asked Zou Meimei who was sitting next to her.

"Qiqi, don't tell me. I would have forgotten to tell you if you hadn't asked me. The organizer of this treasure appraisal conference is a young talent who has lived in Country M for many years and has quite a bit of influence in Country M." Zou Meimei's eyes sparkled.

Seeing Zou Meimei's infatuated look, Huo Qiqi couldn't help but tease her, "Looking at your infatuated look, are you in love with this young talent?"

Zou Meimei didn't take Huo Qiqi's joke seriously, but said seriously, "Yes, I quite like it."

Huo Qiqi likes this point about Zou Meimei. If she likes someone, she likes him. If she doesn’t like someone, she doesn’t like him. She never hesitates.

"Meimei, are you here to participate in this treasure appraisal conference for this young talent?"

Zou Meimei shook her head, a trace of sadness flashing across her eyes. "This young talent is called John, and he's from Country M. I met him several times in international open classes when I was studying in Country F. He was a specially invited lecturer at the college at that time."

At this point, Zou Meimei looked at the scenery outside the car window and sighed, "He's from Country M. My father doesn't agree with me having a foreigner as my boyfriend, and I heard he's already married."

Huo Qiqi said nothing, but just held Zou Meimei's hand tightly.

Soon the car arrived at the Shen Hotel where the treasure appraisal conference was to be held.

Seeing the luxury cars parked outside the door, Huo Qiqi couldn't help but click her tongue. There are really a lot of rich people in Hong Kong, but Huo Qiqi forgot that she is the richest one.

When the hotel waiter saw Zou Meimei and Huo Qiqi, he was surprised by their beauty. But when he saw the car they were driving, he waved his hand in disdain. "What are you doing? If you don't have anything important to do, please leave. There are many important people here today, and you can't afford to offend them."

Huo Qiqi was speechless. Was she being looked down upon? After all, she was one of the four great families in Hong Kong, yet she was looked down upon by a waiter.

Seeing the name of the hotel, wow, it turned out to be the Shen family's property. She reached into her bag and took out the jade pendant given by Shen Di in the system space.

When the hotel waiter saw the Shen family's VIP jade pendant in Huo Qiqi's hand, he was completely scared. As an employee of the Shen Hotel, on the first day of work, he had to learn to identify the various tokens of the Shen family and know the meaning behind them.

What Huo Qiqi was holding in her hand was the Shen family's highest-level VIP jade pendant. Even the hotel general manager would have to be careful when receiving guests after seeing it.

Sure enough, a waiter nearby reported the matter of the VIP jade bottle to the hotel's general manager, Shen Lai, who was from a branch of the Shen family.

The moment Shen Lai saw Huo Qiqi, he knew it was a good thing he had come in person. He knew that the person before him was of great status, and even the head of the family and the old head of the family had to greet her personally. He didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest and immediately and respectfully invited Huo Qiqi into the hotel.

"Number 4, please tidy up your cleaning uniform. We'll go in from the side."
