My Adolescence - Chapter 799
Zhang Qingqing is usually fierce, but she is still a very gentle woman in her bones. After her father-in-law and mother-in-law both went back to bed, Zhang Qingqing went to the bathroom, filled the bathtub with hot water, and then served me to take a bath in person. Unfortunately, Zhang Qingqing is not Li Mengting. She not only refused to take a mandarin duck bath with me, but also said that she would not give her body to me until the day of our wedding. Alas, I’m so anxious.
At noon, Guanghong company held a board meeting. Lin Feng, Zhu Jianyu and I are both vice presidents and the top ten shareholders of the board of directors, so we must attend the meeting.
When I came to the conference room of Guanghong company with Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu, chairman Yifu Murakami and another shareholder representative, Miss Fujiwara Jiuju, also arrived. The five of us sat down for the meeting.
It mainly discusses some problems that some companies may face when building factory bases, as well as some general development directions.
The meeting didn’t end until 12 noon. At the end of the meeting, when Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu and I just stood up to leave the meeting room, Miss Fujiwara Jiuju in a black overalls suddenly shouted to me: “Mr. Chen, wait a minute.”
Lin Feng, Zhu Jianyu and I were all slightly stunned. I looked back at her and asked, “Miss Fujiwara, do you have anything else?”
Fujiwara Jiuju smiled, bowed slightly and said politely, “it’s not a business, it’s a private matter. Today, Huayi auction company has a jewelry auction at the Hilton Hotel. I intend to attend, but I lack a man to accompany me. I don’t know if Mr. Chen is free?”
Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu looked at each other when they heard Fujiwara Jiuju’s words. The eyes of the two guys seemed to say that Chen Yu was so lucky that the Japanese beauty came to the door upside down?
In fact, I know in my own heart that this is not good luck. It must be that Fujiwara Jiuju is suspicious of her father’s death, and even has found out what news. She intends to approach me now. So I opened my mouth and just wanted to refuse, and Yifu Murakami smiled and said, “Miss Fujiwara is not familiar here. Chen Yu, if you have time, please do your best as a host. After all, it’s just a jewelry auction.”
Murakami said so. If I still refuse, it will be too inhumane for me. And if I deliberately avoid this Fujiwara Jiuju, it is estimated that she will be more suspicious of me, so I hesitated a little and said to Fujiwara Jiuju with a smile: “since Miss Fujiwara wants to participate in the jewelry auction, I’ll go with Miss Fujiwara.”
“Thank you, Chen Yujun!”
Fujiwara Jiuju said and bowed again. Japanese people seem to like to bow all the time. I’m not used to it. I can’t help thinking of the scene that the pheasant in the movie Gu hunzi married a Japanese woman as his wife.
Murakami took the opportunity to invite us to a nearby Japanese food store for lunch. I went with Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu. Although Japanese cuisine is very popular, I’m still not used to it and don’t like it. Finally, I only drank a few cups of Japanese sake with them.
The auction was held at two o’clock in the afternoon. When we finished lunch, the time was almost up, and Yifu Murakami took the lead in leaving. But when I went to the Hilton Hotel to participate in the auction with Fujiwara Jiuju, Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu had to follow me and said they were interested in jewelry. I know they are curious about the relationship between Fujiwara Jiuju and me. These two people come here to gossip. It’s boring.
The conference room of Hilton Hotel has hundreds of square meters. When we arrived, the auction site had been arranged, and many guests participated in the auction. Men are in suits, women are in long skirts, almost all of them are high-class people. Think about it. Ordinary people want to eat and wear. Who has the money to bid for jewelry here?
When I came in with Fujiwara Jiuju, Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu, I even met an acquaintance who was a friend I hadn’t seen for a long time, that is, Qin Shaobai, Qin Yannian’s eldest son and Qin Dongsheng’s brother.
Qin Shaobai was dressed in a white suit and snuggled up to a young beauty in a red evening dress, looking like a powerful childe.
“Qin Shao, it’s fate to meet you here!”
Lin Feng had a good relationship with Qin Shaobai. He went up to say hello to Qin Shaobai at the first time. Qin Shaobai was surprised to see Lin Feng and Zhu Jianyu, but when he saw me, his handsome face sank: “Chen Yu!”
As soon as I saw his expression, I knew he didn’t know I was undercover and suspected that I killed his brother, but I still greeted him with a smile: “Qin Shao, haven’t seen you for a long time.”
Qin Shaobai nodded: “it’s a long time, Chen Yu. Even if we’re not brothers, we’re also friends. Even if my brother has something wrong with you, you shouldn’t kill him for my face.”
My face sank: “what do you mean?”
Qin Shaobai said coldly, “now the whole city of Guangzhou says you are suspected of smuggling. You murdered my brother. What do you mean by this?”
Lin Feng’s face also became serious: “Qin Shao, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can’t talk nonsense.”
Zhu Jianyu also stood on my side and said, “yes, I still trust Chen Yu’s character very much. I believe Chen Yu will never attack your brother. Chen Yu has made too many enemies here, and someone must have planted them. Qin Shao, please find out what’s going on and don’t do anything about relatives and enemies.”
Qin Shaobai glanced at me and said, “don’t worry, I’m here to find out. Chen Yu, you’d better not let me find out anything, or you’ll be dead.”
Qin Shaobai said to me, then hugged the young woman beside him and said, “Xiao Xuan, let’s go over there and sit down.”
Fujiwara Jiuju looked at me with a little ugly face and asked me carefully what had happened? I said with a bitter smile that it was my former friend. Now I have a little misunderstanding about me. Then I said to Jiuju Fujiwara, “don’t disturb Miss Fujiwara’s Yaxing because of my business. Let’s sit down first.”
People rushed to the auction site one after another, and the auction began soon.
The first item at today’s auction is the new work of jewelry master Stevens. The pupil of the moon, a necklace made of a sapphire, is very exquisite, fashionable and beautiful. The starting price is 30000 yuan.
After the auctioneer called the price, someone immediately raised a sign: “30000!”
I, Fujiwara Jiuju, Lin Feng, Zhu Jianyu and other guests present couldn’t help glancing in the direction of the bidding voice to see who was so anxious, but I was stunned to find that it was the beauty named Xiaoxuan around Qin Shaobai.
Lin Feng, the Playboy, whispered to me at this time, “this woman’s name is Liang Yixuan. She is a famous socialite in Guangzhou, and she has a bad relationship with Li Zhonghu. Why did Qin Shaobai get entangled with her just when she came here?”
Zhu Jianyu frowned and said, “did Liang Yixuan intend to approach Qin Shaobai?”
Fujiwara Jiuju has been watching my words and deeds since I met Qin Shaobai. At this time, she had guessed that Qin Shaobai’s identity was not simple, and there seemed to be a feud with me. When she saw Liang Yixuan around Qin Shaobai bidding for the pupil of the moon, her eyes turned twice, and then resolutely raised the sign and said in standard Chinese, “I’ll pay 50000!”
Fujiwara Jiuju raised the price by 20000 as soon as he made a move, which directly attracted Liang Yixuan’s glare. However, Qin Shaobai paid for Liang Yixuan’s bidding. Now Liang Yixuan turned his head and looked pitifully at Qin Shaobai. Qin Shaobai turned his head and looked coldly at me and Fujiwara Jiuju around me, and then told Liang Yixuan: “if you like, continue to increase the price. Let me see if Chen Yu wants to play with me?”
Liang Yixuan raised his sign happily: “70000!”
In fact, the market price of Stevens’s necklace was about 50000. When people present heard that Liang Yixuan offered 70000, they all whispered, which was a premium. When everyone thought that no one would bid again, Fujiwara Jiuju turned around and looked at me pitifully like Liang Yixuan just now: “Chen Yujun, I like this necklace. What should I do?”
I have a estrangement with Qin Shaobai now. I don’t want to have any conflict with Qin Shaobai, and I don’t want Qin Shaobai to misunderstand that I have hostility with him, so I quietly advised Fujiwara Jiuju: “this necklace is not so expensive. Forget it.”
Fujiwara Jiuju nodded, then smiled and raised his card: “I bid 100000 yuan!”
Suddenly, the whole audience roared and screamed. Everyone felt that this was not a bidding thing, but fighting for wealth. Moreover, Fujiwara Jiuju just held the card after whispering with me, so Qin Shaobai’s face became very ugly. In his opinion, I instructed Fujiwara Jiuju to increase the price, and felt that I was competing against him.
My heart is also surprised and angry: lying in the trough, Fujiwara Jiuju wants to harm me?
