Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

As night fell, the atmosphere in the auction hall became more tense and heated. The auctioneer's hammer kept hitting the table, leading the rhythm of the scene. Rare items were auctioned one after another, but everyone's attention was focused on the highlight of the night - the hot piece of land in the south of the city and its development rights.

The starting price was 100 million, a figure that was enough to excite many families. As the auctioneer's voice fell, bidding sounds rang out in the venue.

"One hundred and fifty million!" a family representative shouted, holding up a sign.

"One hundred and eighty million!" Not willing to be outdone, another family immediately raised the price.

Xin Mujing sat in a corner of the venue, casually playing with the little hand of the woman next to him. Although his eyes seemed casual, he had already memorized every family holding a sign in his mind. He slid open his phone with his left hand, clicked a few times quickly, and looked at the reply from the other end, his thin lips quietly curved.

Just as the bidding entered a white-hot stage, the representative of the Li Group raised a sign and shouted out the price in an unquestionable tone: "Three hundred million!"

There was silence in the venue, and then there was warm applause. In the end, the land and its development rights were acquired by the Li Group at a price of 300 million.

At this time, the host of the banquet stood up and thanked everyone with a smile: "Thank you all for coming and supporting us. Tonight, we not only had a successful auction, but also made many new friends. In order to celebrate this event, I have specially prepared a banquet. Please move to the banquet hall on the eighth floor, where fine wine and delicious food are waiting for you to taste. If you feel tired, you can go to the ninth floor and my waiters will take you to rest. Next, please enjoy this night. Good night."

As he finished speaking, everyone stood up and walked towards the banquet hall. Xin Mujing, holding the hand of the woman beside him, also slowly walked into the banquet hall.

The lights in the banquet hall were soft and the atmosphere was warm. Guests were chatting with each other, praising each other's children for being so outstanding. However, behind these words of praise, there were hidden benefits brought by the marriage between the two parties.

Xin Mujing led the woman through the crowd, his eyes always calm and sharp. He chatted with a few familiar business leaders for a few words, then turned and walked to a quiet corner.

"Tonight's auction is really exciting." The woman said softly, her eyes shining with excitement.

Xin Mujing smiled slightly and squeezed her hand gently: "That's true. But the more exciting things are yet to come."

The woman raised her head curiously and looked at Xin Mujing: "You mean..."

At this time, "Mr. Xin, long time no see." Jiang Nansheng held Lin Wei's arm, and beside him were Tang Annian, Rong Heng, and Rong Xuan. They slowly approached and nodded slightly to the others with some respect in their eyes.

"So it's Mr. Jiang, oh! No, now you should call me Mr. Jiang. I heard that you have taken over the Jiang Group. Congratulations!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xin. If there is a chance in the future, I hope to discuss a cooperation project with you." Jiang Nansheng raised his glass with a smile on his stern face.

Xin Mujing smiled faintly without saying anything, and their eyes met each other in the air, one was calm, the other was furious, and the situation was tense.

At this moment, a voice sounded beside him. "Yan Yan! Long time no see." The soft tone almost made the man's body numb. He saw a pretty woman wearing a silver-white dress, holding the young master of the Li family with her slender arms. She was as slender as a willow, and her pair of almond eyes were full of spring water and rippling with charming waves, which made people's hearts itch.

"It's been a long time since we last met, but I don't miss you that much." Compared with Ji Yan's indifferent expression, Zhao Jiayu's enthusiastic look made passers-by whisper, "This Miss Ji is really cold and heartless. She ignored people who came to say hello. What a shame, she has the support of Boss Xin."

Five eyes swept around fiercely. He made a note in his heart, and was stopped by Ji Yan when he was about to speak.

"So it's Miss Zhao. I thought I had made it very clear last time. I don't want to continue associating with someone who is so selfish and betrays her friends."

Zhao Jiayu smiled without changing her expression, with a hint of grievance in her eyes. "Yanyan, you really misunderstood me. I was just trying to help you take the test."

"As expected, God is invincible if you are shameless," Ji Yan looked at the woman coldly as she spoke, as if she was looking at a psychopath.

At this time, Mr. Li, who was beside Zhao Jiayi, said, "Miss Ji is really unreasonable!"

Xin Mujing frowned upon hearing this, and he looked at Zhao Jiayi, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. He didn't like Zhao Jiayi's provocative attitude, and he didn't like her disrespect towards Ji Yan even more.

"Mr. Li, what do you mean by this?" Xin Mujing asked coldly, "Do you think Miss Zhao's behavior is right?"

Young Master Li was shocked by Xin Mujing's momentum. He didn't expect Xin Mujing to question him so directly. He hurriedly explained: "Mr. Xin, I just think..."

"That's enough." Xin Mujing interrupted him, "I don't want to hear your explanation."

After hearing this, Young Master Li turned even paler. He knew that his words had angered Xin Mujing, and he also knew Xin Mujing's influence and status in this circle. He didn't dare to say anything more and could only stand aside silently.
