As a thirty-year-old man, Xu Shaojie was about to start a family. Naturally, he was willing to get together with Zheng Jiayu. Firstly, he liked him, and secondly, he was a good match. However, Chen Xiaotong came out. Even though he had all kinds of differences, he

You must give up if you wish.

Now that he saw that he could not get this woman, he was naturally willing to see Chen Xiaotong destroy her.

If you can't get it, destroy it. This is his mentality.

Like Xu Shaojie, some people who were envious and hateful also laughed to add insult to injury, as if Zheng Jiayu could stimulate their adrenaline once he knelt down, and there were many people who said nasty things below.

"Did you hear what Mr. Chen just said? The two of them knew each other when they were studying in Bad Country. This Zheng Jiayu must have offended Mr. Chen."

"Yes, maybe the two of us were friends before."

"Do you think it was Zheng Jiayu who cheated on her in the Bad Country?"

"I think it's possible, look at how easy-going she is."

Vicious voices circulated in the crowd, making them unbearable. At this time, no one cared about the truth. It was enough to stand in the same position as Chen Xiaotong.

Zheng Jiayu, who was like an ice sculpture, could no longer hear the sounds around her. Looking at the domineering Chen Xiaotong, a sense of powerlessness took over her whole body. In her mind, she seemed to have returned to the time when she studied abroad in Bad Country.

Chen Xiaotong was two years younger than her, and they didn't know each other. They only met once at an alumni meeting for international students. From then on, Chen Xiaotong began to pursue her fiercely.

Zheng Jiayu is an arrogant woman, and she has no interest in an arrogant and exaggerated person like Chen Xiaotong. What she values ​​​​in addition to talent is ability, so even if many friends match up and some close people speak for Chen Xiaotong, she is indifferent.

.

This also led to the fact that at a ceremony, after Chen Xiaotong confessed his love in front of everyone, she was rejected. When the other party excitedly held her hand and asked why, she also gave him a slap in the face in excitement.

She had somewhat forgotten the situation at that time, and she had forgotten everything she said. After all, Chen Xiaotong was an insignificant person in her life. Later, when she returned to Qizhou, she even forgot about this matter.

In her opinion, failure in pursuit and friction are just common things in love, but Chen Xiaotong is a narrow-minded person. If he was not forced by his father to complete his studies in the bad country, Chen Xiaotong would have

Returned to China to deal with Zheng Jiayu.

This is the cause and effect of the matter. It is normal for ordinary people, but it is different for Chen Xiaotong. How could this man who has everything to do with everything in the capital be subjected to such humiliation?

"Zheng Jiayu, are you still hesitating? I, Chen Xiaotong, don't have that much patience." Chen Xiaotong spoke again, his tone even stricter than before, as if he was giving an order.

"Chen... Mr. Chen, my daughter has offended you once. Can I, as a father, bear the blame for her sins? I don't ask you to let go of the Zheng family, but I beg you to let Jiayu go. Can I?" Zheng Yu finally said

He spoke, and his trembling voice echoed in the hall.

"You beg me? Haha." Chen Xiaotong smiled wildly: "Are you nothing? In my eyes, you are worse than a dog."

"Chen Xiaotong, do you have to be so vicious?" Zheng Jiayu squeezed out the last bit of strength and asked.

"Zheng Jiayu, don't talk nonsense. If you don't want to be too embarrassed, kneel down immediately. I'll give you the last five seconds. Otherwise, you won't have a chance to regret it."

"five!"

"Four!"

"three!"

Chen Xiaotong's voice was like the death knell of hell, making the whole place fall silent, making time stop, and letting the world move into his rhythm. Every word he counted penetrated everyone's eardrums like an awl, especially the deep ones.

Among them, Zheng Jiayu seemed to have entered a swamp, sinking deeper and deeper.

Zheng Jiayu's whole body was shaking and her legs were weak. Chen Xiaotong's countdown was like an order and she didn't know how to resist, because she knew that if she refused, it would not only destroy the Zheng family, but also put her father in jail.

Her life was given by her father. What does dignity mean before filial piety? Zheng Jiayu's eyes became more and more dull, and she seemed to have made a decision.

"two!"

Chen Xiaotong's expression was cold, and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He knew that Zheng Jiayu had already compromised. No matter how arrogant a woman is, what does she mean when she is in power? This is the feeling he likes, the feeling of crushing everything.

.

In the dead silence of the venue, many spectators sighed helplessly. Everyone knew that today's game was over. Both the Zheng family and Zheng Jiayu would never turn around and sink into doom.

Everyone is waiting for the last number. That number is like the "cut" shouted by the executioner on the execution ground. It is much longer than ever.

Maybe it was only a second, but it seemed like several minutes had passed. When everyone saw Chen Xiaotong's mouth about to open, they almost took a breath at the same time.

But at this moment, another series of numbers appeared in the silent venue. It seemed so disharmonious and harsh, but it was extremely timely.

"Two million two hundred thousand."

The sudden words made the already silent scene even more gloomy. The cold breath that everyone sucked in instantly caught in their throats, neither rising nor falling, making them extremely nervous and uncomfortable.

What's going on? Who said that? What two million and two million? Everyone's brains have been unable to reverse it in a short period of time, and they are completely confused.

Chen Xiaotong, who was on the stage, also had a look of astonishment. After a while, his face gradually became gloomy, and his cold eyes swept over the venue.

At the same time, everyone gradually came to their senses and began to look around, looking for the source of the sound.

Zheng Jiayu was like a robot that had run out of oil, watching numbly. Unlike others, she didn't hear the voice at all, and she didn't understand why the situation at the scene had changed.

"Who yelled the price? Who yelled the price just now?" Chen Xiaotong was the first to react. As soon as the number 2.2 million appeared, it penetrated his eardrums and forced him to read the last number.

Swallowed it back.

At this time, he felt as if he had been choked on a drink of water. The anger in his eyes could not be concealed at all. After questioning, he roared again in a low voice: "I ask again, who shouted the price?"

"Haha, this is an auction, why don't you come and watch the fun if you don't bid? I'm not in the mood to watch some bloody drama about the relationship between men and women. Let me say it again, 2.2 million."

There was a hint of arrogance in the calm voice. In the last row of the venue, a man wearing a peaked cap slowly stood up. Under the brim, only his sharp chin, slightly raised corners of his mouth, and

White teeth.

Everyone swallowed hard as if they had seen a monster. Who is this kid? How dare you refute Chen Xiaotong? How dare you say such frivolous words in front of everyone.

Just when everyone was shocked, the man took off his peaked cap, revealing the face of Li Siwen that almost made the entire Qizhou business community go crazy.

"Li Siwen!"

"Li Siwen!"

"Li Siwen!"

Everyone shouted the name in unison, followed by crazy discussions, and the originally silent auction venue suddenly became noisy.

"Why did he come?"

"Is he here to save Zheng Jiayu?"

"Oh my god, how dare you offend Chen Xiaotong over a woman?"

"Does he want his life?"

"In the entire Qizhou, he is the only one who dares to do this, right?"

The chattering voices could not calm down for a long time. Chen Xiaotong's face on the auction stage turned as pale as frost. It was not because he was afraid, but because in this small Qizhou, there were still people who dared to

Refute his face, especially when this person is Li Siwen who was threatened by him before.

In Chen Xiaotong's eyes, Li Siwen is just a businessman. No matter how strong his business acumen is, he is also a figure worth mentioning. Even if the Xu family reminds him again and again, he still feels that the other party is under his control.

Like an ant, you can crush it to death anytime and anywhere.

But such a person unexpectedly came to the auction site to challenge himself. How could he not lose face? How could he not be angry?

"Li Siwen, I hope you understand what you just said. If you take it back now, maybe I can be lenient. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." Chen Xiaotong tried his best to restrain his anger and stared at Li Siwen word by word.

Said in words.

Li Siwen, on the other hand, just smiled faintly, with disdain and rebellion hidden in that smile, and replied slowly: "Mr. Chen, I don't mean to offend you, but I am a businessman, and businessmen must of course focus on profit. The Delis industry is so cost-effective

, of course I want to take pictures, and besides, you also said that only fools would not participate in this kind of money-picking thing."

Chen Xiaotong's cheek twitched, he clenched his teeth and asked, "You have to be responsible for your words. Do you really want to bid?"

This rhetorical question was an ultimatum for Li Siwen to think clearly, but Chen Xiaotong happened to meet a master who was not afraid of anything.

"I not only want to bid today, but I am bound to win."

The four words "I must win" were heavy and firm. Li Siwen attacked Chen Xiaotong's arrogant defense line with an unquestionable answer.

There were periods of silence and noise in the auction venue, and everyone's emotions were completely involved. The situation that had no room for it was abruptly broken by the sudden appearance of Li Siwen, and everyone could also hear that Li Siwen's so-called businessmen were seeking profit.

There was nothing wrong with him, but everyone knew that Li Siwen stood up to protect Zheng Jiayu.

"Today I opened my eyes. Xu Shaojie gave up Zheng Jiayu for profit, but Li Siwen fought against Chen Xiaotong for Zheng Jiayu. Is this the difference between men?"

"The difference? I think he is overestimating his abilities and risking his life for a woman. Only a man with a tadpole's brain can do that."

"Having said that, this kid does have some courage. Not only did he turn Qizhou's business world upside down, but even Chen Xiaotong couldn't control him."
