Fu Yizhen's eyes fell on Fang Li, but he said to the people around him: "The auction is about to begin."

"If you don't want to miss it, prepare as early as possible."

Fu Yizheng was obviously unwilling to say more, and the people around him were all smart and understood it immediately.

"Mr. Fu is right, this auction is not to be missed!"

"It's time to enter the scene."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the lights in the venue dimmed.

Amid the crowd's exclamations, a small beam of light soon lit up in the center, illuminating the host who walked into the venue. After some polite words, the auction officially began.

Everyone present found their seats, and Fang Li followed Pei Qing to one side.

When leaving, Fu Yizhen said to her, "See you after the auction."

Fang Li glanced at him and said nothing.

She and Pei Qing found a seat with the best view. After sitting down, she forcefully asked him to stretch out his hand for her to see.

Seeing the red knuckles, Fang Li frowned, angry and distressed, "I asked you just now, and you said you were fine. Look at this, do you look fine?"

Pei Qing didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

The wound on his hand was from when he beat those people just now. If it happened again, he would do the same thing again. It was their fault for holding Fang Li hostage.

"Okay, I'm fine." He comforted Fang Li, holding hers tightly with his warm palms. "The skin is not even scratched, just let it go."

He coaxed her gently a few more times, and Fang Li finally stopped breathing.

So far in the auction, five items have been sold.

The first five items were all small trinkets, such as copper coins, calligraphy and paintings, and only later did some items with more collectible value gradually emerge.

For example, the gem that Fu Yizheng talked about to Fang Li.

The moment the gem was released, Fang Li clearly heard the people around her gasp, and many people were eager to take pictures of the gem.

Fang Li glanced at the thumb-sized purple gem that the host placed in his palm.

It sparkles brightly under the light, like the eyes of a lover.

Even Fang Li was reluctant to look away.

She finally understood why those noble ladies and rich girls were all eyeing this gem.

"If you want us to participate in the auction." Pei Qing put the bidding card in her hand.

Fang Li was startled and said quickly, "Who said I want it? I don't want it! It's just a gem. What's so good about it? I have plenty of this kind."

This purple gem is the only one in Asia, so it is impossible for there to be as many as Fang Li said.

She said this only considering Pei Qing's current situation.

Their company is thriving.

But now is the starting stage after all, and this purple gem is very valuable at first glance. I don’t know how much it will cost to buy it. It’s such a waste and not worth it.

Fang Lu also said this to Pei Qing, but he insisted on giving her the sign. "Don't worry about the money. I will help you get whatever you want."

A warm feeling flowed through Fang Li's heart.

Soon, the introduction of the purple gem was completed.

Logically, the auction was about to begin, and Fang Li thought the scene would be filled with blood and gore.

But the host actually smiled apologetically, "This purple gemstone, as the finale of this event, should have been bought by a lucky guest here at a high price."

"But unfortunately, because of a person who has done a great favor to our Wanyu Group, we have to apologize to everyone here. The auction of this gem will be cancelled and it will be given directly to that person."

"Why? This isn't fair to us at all!"

"That's right. We are here to participate in the auction for the sake of your group's reputation."

"You left so many of us empty-handed. You should at least give us a better explanation. It's too shameless to give things away without even saying hello."

Everyone was very dissatisfied after hearing this.

The host kept wiping his sweat on the stage, but at this point, he was in a dilemma and could only bite the bullet and finish the rest of his sentence.

"This purple gem belongs to Mr. Fu."

After hearing the name of the Fu family, the ladies who were overwhelmed by anger finally came to their senses a little.

After all, the Fu family is not an ordinary family. Half of their city can be said to belong to the Fu family, and the remaining half belongs to the Ye family.

As everyone knows, the Fu family has only one son in this generation, Fu Yizhen, who just returned from studying abroad.

"Mr. Fu, please come up and get your things." said the host.

A man in the audience stood up and stepped forward.

From the way he walks, you can tell that he has excellent manners. He was educated in an upper-class family, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a fierce aura.

He went up and took the box from the host's hand, then suddenly looked in one direction.

Many people don't know who he is looking at.

"Did he look in our direction just now?"

"You are mistaken."

"Impossible! I saw it clearly, but I don't know who Mr. Fu is looking at. If anyone is favored by him, then they will marry into a wealthy family and have no worries about food and drink."

Everyone was expressing their envy, except Fang Li, who felt a pang in her heart.

No one knew better than her that Fu Yizhen was looking at her.

Her palms felt slightly cold, and at this moment a hand reached out from her side and held her tightly, instantly driving away all the anxiety and restlessness in Fang Li's heart.

Fang Li and Pei Qing looked at each other and calmed down.

At this moment, Fu Yizheng had already sat back. He did not come over and hand the thing to her as Fang Li had expected.

But this made her even more confused about what he wanted to do.

"Ms. Fang." An assistant came over quietly, holding the box that Fu Yizhen had just taken away. "This, our President Fu asked me to give it to you. He said that this thing should be yours."

Fang Li didn't take it. "I can't have it. You can take it back."

"But……"

"I don't have a very good relationship with your President Fu. I won't accept gifts without merit. I would feel guilty if I accepted such a valuable gift."

The assistant was obviously in a difficult situation. He hesitated for a while and even thought about just giving the box directly to Fang Li.

The things must be handed over to her.

Otherwise, seeing him take the things away intact and bring them back safely, it would be strange if Mr. Fu didn't skin him alive. Thinking of this, the assistant shuddered.

Just as he was about to take action, a hand suddenly interrupted his action and handed the box back to him without any explanation.

"Did you hear what my wife said just now?" Pei Qing's eyes were dark, making people inexplicably frightened, "Take the things back."

Pei Qing looked like this, let alone this assistant.

Even Fang Li was startled.

Pei Qing has always had a good temper. After all, he has been with Ye Nanzhou for so many years, and as an assistant he naturally has to handle all kinds of interpersonal relationships.

Over time, he developed a gentle and taciturn character.

At least before today, Fang Li had never seen him so angry.
