Chapter 217

Chapter 217. Acting and doing a full set

Three days later, the Arhat Club will be held as scheduled.

Because it was a matter of collective destiny, the Nine Families attached great importance to it, and they began to recall the young children who were away a few days in advance.

Although many of these young children were unwilling to participate, they had to reluctantly do so due to strict orders.

Ren Ping was picked up by Su Rui's car early in the morning. Because of the fake engagement last time, both parties were not very happy. They had nothing to say along the way, and the atmosphere was quite dull.

It wasn't until he was about to arrive that Su Rui suddenly turned to him and gave him a look:
"Hey, it doesn't matter if you don't talk now, but you can't do this later, otherwise Grandpa and Uncle Rong will blame me for not doing a full set of plays."

"What do you mean?" Ren Ping was taken aback.

"What do you mean? Aren't we engaged?"

Su Rui's eyes widened: "Even if it's fake, you have to make it look like it, otherwise how can others believe it? Why should I worry about this infamy?"

"infamy?"

Ren Ping knew that Rong Qiancheng and Su Minghan must have done a lot of ideological work for Su Rui in the past few days, so she was willing to pick her up, but isn't the word infamy a bit too much?

Immediately said coldly: "Ms. Su should be chased by many people at school, right? It can be seen from the incident in the Ninth Five-Year Court last time."

"What are you talking about?" Su Rui was also taken aback.

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have such arrogance? Let me tell you clearly in advance that the idea of ​​getting married was decided by Rong Qiancheng and your grandfather, and it was the nine of you who saved it. It has nothing to do with me."

Su Rui choked for a moment, she originally just wanted to act like a little girl, after all, she was wronged by this matter, but why does Ren Ping look like he is bigger than sacrifice than himself?

Could it be that you had defiled him?
Su Rui was so angry that his teeth were sore, Su Rui was going to turn his back on him, but remembering his grandfather's earnest advice, he suppressed his anger: "I don't care who came up with the idea, anyway, the rumors have already been let out, and I don't want to waste all my previous efforts, so I will do the whole trick." gone."

"How to do it all?"

"You don't have to worry about it, just cooperate with me later!" Su Rui turned away and ignored him.

Ren Ping was secretly amused, of course he wouldn't be stingy enough to argue with a girl, but this matter was really unpleasant, and he unconsciously wanted to compete with her.

"You have nothing else to tell me?"

"Gone!"

"Are you sure? Think again."

"What nonsense! I—" Su Rui was startled suddenly, as if remembering something, he turned his head:
"You're going to the capital right away. When you see Long Wei, don't mention this, lest she get angry. Oh, forget it. That girl is well-informed. Maybe she already knew it. I'd better call her in advance Get ready."

Originally looked disheartened, but as soon as the words came out, Su Rui himself found it funny, and he looked at Ren Ping, and couldn't help being happy, and the embarrassing atmosphere suddenly disappeared a lot.

Ren Ping remembered that he and Long Wei hadn't seen each other for a long time, and was dazed for a while, until he remembered what was going on today, and then asked Su Rui carefully.

According to her, in the past, the Arhat Association was mostly just a formality, because although there are many children from the nine families, there are not many who inherit the family business.

Especially in recent years, the children of each family are not as good as the next generation. Those children who are willing to inherit the family business are limited by talent, and most of them cannot make achievements in the professional field like their parents and grandparents. They are only in operation and management.

But operation is not the core after all, and it must not be limited to this in a highly commercialized industry such as collection and auction, otherwise it will be a one-legged walk, which will not last long.

After hearing this, Ren Ping also took it for granted, thinking that there would be no new children proficient in majors to grow up, and now with the support of the older generation, they can still barely act as a facade, but what about the future?
If things go on like this, the Nine Great Families will almost have no successors, no wonder Rong Qiancheng and the others are so anxious.

"You said just now that there are not many who can inherit the family business, does that mean there are still?"

"Well, there are two of them."

"Who? Including you?"

"Of course not. I'm still in school. How can I inherit the family business?"

Su Rui rolled her eyes at him and continued:
"The two I'm talking about belong to Qitaihang. One is Qi Wulei and the other is Qi Xiaoshuang. They are brother and sister. They are outstanding among this group of children, and they have officially taken over the mantle of Qitaihang."

"By the way, their grandfather is Qi Heng, whom you met last time."

Ren Ping remembered that the old Qi who made things difficult for him during the last assessment for joining the alliance turned out to be his grandson.

It seems that these two people not only inherited the family business, but were praised by the entire nine families, otherwise Su Rui would not have mentioned it alone.

As for Qi Tai Xing, it ranks second among the nine majors, second only to Rong Lu Xing, and should not be underestimated.

"By the way, what about Rong Lu Xing? Is there no one under Mr. Rong's family to inherit?"

Thinking of this, Ren Ping suddenly said.

Su Rui curled his lips when he heard the words, showing an indescribably weird expression, as if he didn't know how to speak, he paused and said: "Uncle Rong's family belongs to the Nine Greats, so of course someone inherited it, but this person is a bit strange."

"What do you mean?"

"This man's name is Rong Yi, and he's Uncle Rong's only son. It stands to reason that his professional level is enough, but if he wants to inherit the family business... let's count him as half of him."

"Half?"

Ren Ping couldn't help being amused when he heard it, thinking what was going on, seeing Rong Qiancheng a few times before, he was not ashamed to ask, so it turned out that there was something hidden in it.

In addition, the word Rong Yi is also strange. It is really not easy to come up with such a name.

He continued to ask, but Su Rui kept his mouth shut and kept talking about other topics, as if the heir to Rong Lu Xing was a taboo among the nine families.

Later, Su Rui became impatient and rolled his eyes at him: "Don't ask, he will come today anyway, you will know when you see it, as for the others, they are all a bunch of dudes, don't tell me Forget it!"

Ren Ping smiled, thinking that this Rong Yi was not considered a dude, so he couldn't help but become more curious.

Not long after, the car drove into a forest path. Through the car window, you could see a lot of luxury cars parked along the road, at least twenty or thirty cars, all of which were heading straight towards a three-story villa behind the forest.

Ren Ping's eyes dazzled when he saw those license plates, and he thought that the names of these nine children of the Nine Masters seemed to be well-founded before they met each other.

As for that villa, he had heard about it a long time ago. It is said that before the Nanling Spring and Autumn League was formed, the nine families jointly held an autumn auction here.

At that time, the scene was extremely grand, and treasures appeared frequently, breaking the local single-game turnover record in one fell swoop.

With this autumn auction, the reputation of the Nine Great Masters was completely established, and the Spring and Autumn League was formed logically later, so this villa can also be counted as one of their symbolic gathering places, where the annual Arhat Club is held.

This year, because of the Capital Competition, the scene was of course more lively. Looking at it, I saw the four doors of the living room on the ground floor were open, together with the front and back yards, forming an area with a total of thousands of square meters.

Not to mention just the internal activities of the Nine Families, it would be more than enough to hold another auction with thousands of people participating.

Ren Ping wondered how many people would participate in the capital competition. The car had already driven to the gate of the villa, and when he was about to get out of the car, Su Rui suddenly pressed him down and signaled him not to move.

When she got out of the car first, and then went around to the passenger seat, there were already many people approaching in twos and threes.

She gently opened the passenger door, which seemed gentle but was actually very artificial. Then before Ren Ping got out of the car, she stretched out her left hand and hooked it into his right arm.

The whole movement was done in one go, as if he had practiced it, Ren Ping barely had time to react, and he was already hit.

When he recalled what he had just said and saw clearly the dozens of men and women in front of him, especially the hostile looks of a group of young men, he suddenly realized and looked at Su Rui with a wry smile:

"So this is what you mean by acting and doing a full set?"
