The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

Watching the open and covert struggles among the heads of several families, Xu Yiyu grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the snack plate and began to eat them leisurely.

Lu Sanshi followed suit and also grabbed a handful of melon seeds. He crossed his long legs, put on a typical domineering face and started eating melon seeds.

Wu Nan, who came with Wu Chen today, and Zhang Qingwan and Gu Yue, who came with Gu Liang, saw Xu Yiyu turning on the spectator mode, and they immediately felt a little itchy and couldn't help but reach their hands into the melon seed plate to grab a handful.

Meng Yu, the young master of the Meng family, who was relatively lively by nature, skipped all the considerations and went straight to the point. Before Meng Lingqi could even stop him, Meng Yu's first melon seed had already entered his mouth.

"Cough cough."

Before Wu Nan, Zhang Qingwan and Gu Yue touched the melon seed plate, Wu Chen and Ye Wen coughed at the same time in tacit understanding. The three of them stopped hesitating and wisely withdrew their hands.

In the last session of previous auctions, snacks and melon seed plates were basically just decorations for the VIPs. Apart from the pot of tea that each guest would drink, other snacks on the table would hardly be touched.

Xu Yiyu didn't care about these empty rules. What happened in the private room of Longtengju a few days ago was what happened in Yunyin Hall today. Apart from Yan Xuhan announcing the new bidding information, the only sounds that could be heard were the crisp sound of cracking melon seeds at her table, which immediately attracted the attention of all the guests in the venue.

Meng Lingqi looked at the casual Xu Xiaoyou, then turned back to look at his grandson who had a first-class imitation ability. He smiled helplessly and shook his head, but did not stop his grandson from doing it.

"Uncle, Miss Xu is really casual. She even has the leisure to eat when she is so nervous."

Although Ye Yingxian had been warned by the elders of the clan before coming here, he was not convinced because he had never fought with Xu Yiyu in person like his cousin Ye Yingqi, so he spoke a little louder.

"Thank you for the compliment. I am used to being casual. I can't compare to the young master of the Ye family, who is always so lenient with himself and strict with others at all times and in all places."

Ye Wen frowned, and before he could scold his nephew who had never experienced any setbacks since childhood and had a too-strong youthful mentality, Xu Yiyu, who was happily cracking melon seeds, stopped, threw the remaining melon seeds in his hand onto the table, dusted off the melon seed shells on his hands, and directly retorted to Ye Yingxian's words without giving in.

"You! You are simply..."

"Do you think I am unreasonable, Second Young Master Ye? Sorry, I am just telling the truth. I believe that Patriarch Ye and Second Young Master Ye think the same. If Second Young Master Ye is not convinced, why not ask the two people next to you?"

Meng Yu, who was also sitting at the Ye family's table, saw Ye Yingxian stand up in anger because of Xu's words, and was still speechless. He cracked another melon seed with a gloating look, and put on a gossipy expression of someone eating melon in the front row, looking at this guy who was asking for trouble with a half-smile.

"Xu Yiyu, you..."

"Yingxian, you have been rude enough to Xu Xiaoyou, sit down quickly."

Seeing that his nephew wanted to retort to Xu Yiyu's words, Ye Wen quickly stopped him and prevented the situation from developing in a more uncontrollable direction.

"Master Ye is indeed sensible. I am very grateful to you."

"You're too polite, Mr. Xu."

Ye Yingxian hesitated for a long time with his face flushed, and finally realized that even his uncle, who usually had great power in the imperial city, did not dare to disrespect Xu. Finally, he sat down again with a dissatisfied heart.

"Yingxian, you can't afford to offend Xu Yiyu. You've seen that even my father needs to be treated with respect. Naturally, she can't be just a simple group boss. When you want to cause trouble for her in the future, you'd better think about this."

Ye Yingqi was kind enough to give his cousin a few words of advice. If it were any other occasion, he would definitely not have the leisure to remind this cousin with whom he did not have such a deep relationship. But today, in the eyes of outsiders, they all represented the Ye family. Ye Yingxian's actions just now had already somewhat embarrassed the Ye family, and he could not allow him to make mistakes again.

Xu Yiyu also understood in his heart why the second young master of the Ye family, whom he met for the first time today, wanted to cause trouble for him for no reason. In addition to being dissatisfied with the good treatment he received at this auction, it was also a sign of dissatisfaction that was often seen among the children of aristocratic families.

"I understand, Brother Yingqi."

Although Ye Yingxian obviously wanted to say something, he noticed that Ye Wen's face was not very good, so he tried his best to suppress his dissatisfaction and listened to Ye Yingqi's advice with gritted teeth.

Seeing that the young man from the Ye family had suppressed his temper, Xu Yiyu raised the corner of his mouth almost imperceptibly, picked up the handful of melon seeds that he had just thrown on the table, and continued to eat them with great interest.

Several younger generations from the Wu, Gu, and Zhou families saw clearly the scene where Ye Yingxian was humiliated. Especially those who didn't know Xu Yiyu before, they were extremely grateful in their hearts that they didn't act as the first one to speak out, nor did they show their dissatisfaction with Xu Yiyu.

The purpose of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys was achieved. Xu Yiyu no longer divided his attention to those children of noble families who only wanted to intrigue among themselves. He just fixed his eyes on the large electronic screen that refreshed the bidding information from time to time, and no longer paid attention to any interference from the outside world.

After Lu Sanshi lost weight, the deterrent power of this natural domineering face was no joke. After he glanced at the young people from the aristocratic families who were ready to make a move without any emotion, many of them who were already impetuous were startled and almost subconsciously withdrew their gaze.

This person has been accompanying Xu Yiyu since the first day of this auction. He doesn't talk much most of the time, as if he is just an dispensable male companion to Xu Yiyu.

But after the previous few days, almost no one dared to look down on him.

Because everyone understood one thing: since Xu Yiyu was someone valued by the heads of the four major families, then the man who had always been by her side, even if he rarely spoke, could have some unique identity or background or extraordinary abilities. Otherwise, why were the four heads of the family so polite to him?

That's why it is said that Lu Sanshi's face and eyes, which carry the aura of a domineering president, are too deceptive to outsiders. If those children of aristocratic families knew that their patriarch was courteous to him because of his natural domineering aura, they would probably vomit three liters of blood.

This little friction between Xu Yiyu and Ye Yingxian did not delay the progress of the land auction. After seeing this little confrontation between Xu Yiyu and the second son of the Ye family, the two legal officers who had been observing everything on the sidelines looked at the chairman, who did not seem to have any intention of competing, with a different eye.

She is so good at using the force of others to defeat them. No wonder she is valued by the big boss. She is indeed not simple.
