This Damned Sweetness

When Cheng Lang walked out of the room, his joke expression was slightly restrained when he said "catching the koi".

Gao Rui, who was drinking tea in the sofa chair in the corridor, immediately got up: "You are..."

Cheng Lang raised his hand to stop him: "That kid was happy when he left?"

"Yes, at that time, the little son knew that you would prepare a cruise ship for him to travel around the world. He was so happy that Ms. Zhao and Ms. Xu didn’t care about which ex-girlfriend, and broke up with the current female star, and went abroad without incident. Only later , I wonder if I heard about the group’s news from outside. Seeing that you dismissed him and pressed the eldest son, I was mad at you, so I turned back."

That's right.

Cheng Lang understands this cousin-choosing women depends on their skin, and has no care for anything. Although it is said that what is not available is always the best, men will be a little more obsessed with women who want to sleep but cannot sleep, but compared with women, face is always the first. Cheng Ye lost a few times, and even if he still coveted Xu Qiao, there was no reason to continue to put down his body and chase.

Therefore, this matter tonight is either a coincidence, or Cheng Ye is not going to make peace with Xu Qiao, but is simply picking things up.

Rabbits will bite people when they are anxious. Although Cheng Ye doesn't set foot in the mall, seeing his brother being bullied by his cousin, he always favors his family. It is impossible to avenge Cheng Lang for some elementary school chicken.

As for retaliation...

If Cheng Lang can easily penetrate, this brain circuit may not be the president.

Gao Rui also thought of this relationship, and persuaded: "If you really plan to do what the young man is going to do, the people under him can't stop you. You should go there yourself. If we think too much, let's take a ride! "

Cheng Lang sighed and waved his hand, motioning him to prepare the car.

From the moment he learned of Xu Qiao's true background, reason told him that he should no longer interact with her.

Her free-spirited personality can easily have an impact on his condition.

She exploded at one point, and her bad temper made him find it troublesome and difficult to control.

Her family status may one day expose his hidden illness in this circle.

Until now, he still doesn't change this idea, so he always maintains a business attitude in front of her.

But recently this "official business" is too much.

One wave has not calmed down and another wave has risen, but no one can stand idly by. He is really spinning in the waves.

Cheng Lang pressed his temple and walked down the crystal spiral staircase.

——

Under the porch of the Li Pai Hotel, a Rolls-Royce Ghost and a Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped one after another.

Xu Qiao was late tonight. He returned to Xijiang Mansion from Audleyden, and moved to a new home. After working all day, he would pick up and dress up and go out later.

Unexpectedly, she was not the only one who arrived late.

Xu Qiao glanced at the Phantom after getting out of the car, and saw Wen Yue, who was wearing a sea-blue fishtail skirt like her.

Tonight, this private jewelry auction was initiated by the well-known jewelry lover Townsend at home and abroad. It is a feast that women who love gems will never miss.

If it hadn't been for Fancui Jewelry to be retired by Lan Chen, Zhao Baoxing would not dare to see people after getting into trouble, and probably would follow Wen Yue right now.

Xu Qiao was not surprised that Wen Yue was there, but it was a surprise that the two wore similar models again.

With this close aesthetic taste, there is no guarantee that there will be a bad battle to be fought tonight.

Wen Yue nodded at her as a greeting.

Xu Qiaopi smiled and held the corner of her mouth without a smile, and gently tucked her hand bag on her waist, and followed the waiter into the auction venue.

The auction in the venue is already in full swing, and the golden spotlights are concentrated on the stage, and the underside is full of shadows.

Xu Qiao took a seat in the back row, and saw that the pair of pink diamond earrings displayed on the big screen shot to eight figures.

The jewelry auctions initiated by Townsend are anonymous without exception. In his words, women are as precious as jewelry, and he doesn't want women to hurt each other's harmony because of jewelry.

But this statement may be just a fig leaf for collecting money.

In fact, this kind of anonymous bidding is usually hidden for a while. Gossip after each auction is over, or the parties show off, which jewelry goes to whose house is just an open secret.

However, because everyone does not have to worry about whose daughter this is or whose son is in the current auction, this model will indeed make the bidding process more intense, and will also increase the price of jewelry.

For example, this pair of earrings, valued at only US$800,000 overseas, has doubled in value by the hands of Townsend.

But Xu Qiao is lacking in this interest.

In her eyes, many of Townsend's jewelry are gimmicks that are not worth paying for. She did her homework before coming, and her only goal tonight is a bracelet valued at one million Swiss francs overseas.

The main stone of the bracelet is a Burmese sapphire of the "Royal Blue" grade. The clarity is quite rare, and the design and craftsmanship are rarely recognized by her. More importantly, it matches the sea-blue fishtail skirt she is wearing tonight.

So Xu Qiaochun was a spectator for several rounds, until the bracelet jumped into his eyes, she straightened up, raised her hand and held the bidder on the armrest of the seat.

For a bracelet with a starting price of RMB 7 million, the bidders are naturally not as many as before, but there are still many people who are not bad. Within three minutes, the auction price on the big screen has doubled.

Fourteen million is a watershed, and further upwards, fewer people follow the price.

When the auctioneer shouted "14 million once", Xu Qiao pressed the bidding button for the first time.

However, the smoke-filled war seems to have started from 14 million.

——

When Xu Qiao went to war here, Cheng Lang's Zeppelin was stuck in the long queue of traffic in the city center.

The mobile phones of all guests present at the auction were required to be set to silent mode, and neither Xu Qiao nor Cheng Ye could be contacted temporarily.

The family scandal should not be publicized. One is his cousin, and the other is his cousin’s ex-girlfriend and the subject of his own scandal. Cheng Lang didn’t want to publicly take the person away, so as not to cause trouble, so he asked Gao Rui to fight the auctioneer. He said hello, and simply explained that if there is any disorder in the auction, please call to notify him as soon as possible.

But the auctioneer has been quiet.

Gao Rui thought that perhaps he had looked at Cheng Ye highly until Wen Yue's call came in.

When answering the phone, Gao Rui didn't know who the other party was, but only after hearing her self-named did he react: "Ah, it's Miss Wen, sorry."

"It's okay, I made the contact abruptly, because I don't have Cheng Lang's mobile phone number, so I only called you."

"Are you always looking for Xiaocheng?" Gao Rui glanced at the rearview mirror.

Cheng Lang made a gesture and asked him to turn on the speaker.

Wen Yue's unconcealed joyous voice came from the receiver: "Yes, I want to thank him for taking the bracelet for me tonight. If it is convenient..."

Cheng Lang frowned.

Gao Rui ignored the etiquette and interrupted: "Sorry, Miss Wen, which bracelet do you mean? Mr. Cheng did not participate in any auction tonight."

Wen Yue seemed to be stagnant: "At the jewellery auction at Li Pai, Mr. Cheng said that it was Cheng Lang who told him that he took the sapphire bracelet and gave it to me."

Cheng Lang's face went cold.

Gao Rui horrified: "Miss Wen, this is a misunderstanding. Xiao Cheng has never heard of the existence of a sapphire bracelet, let alone know that you are in Li Pai tonight."

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Cheng Lang waved his hand to signal him to hang up as soon as possible.

Gao Rui had to give up his pity and pity: "Miss Wen, Mr. Cheng is a little busy here, I will call you back later."

The phone was cut off, and Cheng Lang pointed to the mobile phone and said: "Open a room in Li Pai, lock up the kid and let him wait. Contact the auctioneer to find out what happened."

Gao Rui hastily followed suit. As soon as he mentioned the bracelet, the person in charge of the auctioneer said cheerfully: "Young Master Cheng's assistant has already given the bracelet to Miss Wen on behalf of Mr. Cheng, please rest assured Mr. Cheng."

Listening to this, Cheng Ye not only fooled Wen Yue, but also the auctioneer.

It just so happened that Cheng Lang had previously been the auctioneer of the Union of Telecom. It seemed that he was very concerned about this auction tonight. It is no wonder that the auctioneer mistakenly thought he was interested in a certain lot.

Gao Rui clutched his forehead awkwardly: "I want to confirm, who else is participating in the bracelet bidding besides Young Master Cheng?"

Probably because of the anonymous rule, the person in charge hesitated.

"Maybe there are Miss Wen Yuewen and Miss Xu Qiaoxu?" Gao Rui asked.

"Yes, that's it." Over there backed down.

Gao Rui noticed Cheng Lang's sullen expression in the rearview mirror, and hurriedly asked, "Does Miss Xu know who took this bracelet and the final winner of this bracelet?"

"This... Ms. Xu left the hotel and asked about it. She couldn't talk about it in principle, but..."

With Xu Qiao's temper, you have to speak up even if you want to inquire. The auctioneer can know everything because of the compromise with Cheng Lang, and of course it can also be endless because of the compromise with Xu Qiao.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Ye's "Primary School Chicken Jedi Counterattack" was quite disturbing.

In Gao Rui's mind, it seemed that Xu Qiao was so angry that he was exploding into a hedgehog.

Hanging up the phone, he turned his head and looked to the back seat, with a desperate expression on his face: "Mr. Cheng..."

Cheng Lang closed his eyes and pressed his eyebrows: "Hurry up and find someone."

——

Gao Rui continued to call Xu Qiao while instructing the driver to drive to the Audleyden Hotel.

As a result, the call was not answered, and Audleyden also said that Xu Qiao had left the room this morning.

Seeing that Cheng Lang's face became more and more ugly, Gao Rui was anxious as if he was spreading a cake on a hot pot. He contacted Xu Kangrong and Yan Lizhen. Fortunately, he got the answer from Zhu Li—Xu Qiaoqi got drunk by Yujinfang. I went, and opened a box with her for a drink.

Gao Rui immediately turned on the speakerphone so that Cheng Lang could hear the situation there, and explained: "Miss Zhu, can you give the phone to Miss Xu? Xiao Cheng always has something to tell her."

"Ah..." Zhu Li said embarrassedly, "I don't know if she can understand people now..."

Gao Rui was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"She drank too much."

Tossing around in the middle of the night, around half of the North City, Cheng Lang's patience has been exhausted here, and he took the phone from Gao Rui's hand: "You give her the phone."

"Ok."

There was a rustling noise and an impatient grunt: "Who?"

"Don't drink, your dog man is here to coax you."

If such a misunderstanding happened tonight, it might not be an exaggeration to call him "dog man".

Cheng Lang breathed deeply and gently to keep calm.

I just adjusted my mood, and in the earpiece, the wonderful speech that was crackling was poured out like overturned oil, salt, sauce and vinegar: "Who wants him to coax it! If it wasn't for being poor and forced to marry a rich family by my dad, I would Fancy the kind of dog man who has nothing but money?"

"...?"
