Madam Yao’s face darkened. “Mengqing, the violin! It’s going to be auctioned soon. You have to take it. Otherwise, not only will our Yao family not be able to give that out as a gift but we’ll also lose all our reputation!”
Yao Mengqi also became serious. “Yes, we have to. We’ve already said that we’ll give Xue Liang a gift. If we don’t get it, Xue Liang will definitely be angry!”
Yao Mengqing was instantly on guard. Her mind was filled with the violin.
Her expression was gloomy. “Qiao Xi is obviously going against me. As long as I make a bid, she’ll definitely bid higher. She has Gu Zheng behind her, so it doesn’t matter how much she spends. But how can the Yao family’s wealth compare to Ah Zheng’s?”
Madam Yao’s face turned pale. She did not expect her gentle daughter to look so vicious.
Yao Mengqing could tell that Madam Yao was shocked. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down. “Mom, it looks like I won’t be able to bid for the violin anymore. I can only donate 20 million yuan in the name of the Yao family after the auction.”
“No matter what the next auction item is, Qiao Xi will definitely compete with me. Of course, our wealth can’t compare to the Gu family’s financial resources, but I can’t let others think that we’re not bidding because we can’t bear to part with the money. If we donate 20 million yuan after this, it won’t be embarrassing even if news of this gets out. However, we’ll have no chance of compensating Xue Liang.”
Yao Mengqing’s gaze was vicious as she said in a low voice, “However, I’ll make Qiao Xi pay a painful price this time!”
Qiao Xi targeted her in public and caused her to lose all her dignity. How could she swallow this?
Didn’t that b*tch like to snatch her things? Then she would let Qiao Xi snatch them!
Over 100 million was nothing to Gu Zheng. He would help Qiao Xi pay.
What about 200 million and 300 million, then? Would Gu Zheng be willing to be a spendthrift?
If Qiao Xi spent 200 million on this 5 million yuan violin, Gu Zheng would definitely think that she was stupid and start to hate her.
Yao Mengqing curled her lips and smiled coldly.
‘Qiao Xi, just wait and see! Our game has just begun!’
…
On the other side, Gu Yao muttered softly, “Gu Zheng said you like this violin? You even have such a hobby?”
Qiao Xi glanced indifferently at him. “…”
Gu Yao said, “Wow, do you really know how to play? You look uneducated, but you can even play the violin?”
Qiao Xi rolled her eyes at him. “I’m not bidding for this violin.”
Gu Yao was a little stunned as he asked in surprise, “Why? I heard that the Yao family is going to bid for this violin to give to Xue Liang. If he accepts it, it’ll mean that he has forgiven the Yao family and the others will look up to the Yao family as well.”
Gu Yao frowned. “You’ve already snatched everything else. Why miss out on this one? You have to snatch it!”
Gu Zheng glanced at Gu Yao casually.
Qiao Xi said slowly, “I’ve spent all my money.”
Gu Yao immediately shouted, “Gu Zheng! Your wife likes this violin. Aren’t you going to buy it for her? It turns out that she’s been spending her own money. You’re too petty!”
Without waiting for Gu Zheng’s reply, Gu Yao said righteously, “Qiao Xi! Just raise the placard and I’ll pay! Just take it as a gift from me. No matter how much the Yao family bids, snatch it from them! I’m so rich, so why should I be afraid of the Yao family?”
Qiao Xi looked at him in surprise.
“Are you sure?”
Gu Yao was stunned. He initially did not have any money, but his scumbag father had asked Lu Yan to inherit the Gu family’s shares. When the time came, he would inherit the shares of Gu Corporation.
However, if that was the case, the Gu family would no longer belong to Gu Zheng. The Gu family would chase Gu Zheng out and not leave him with a single cent.
Hence, Gu Yao decided that from now on, he would be a spendthrift. He would squander all the Gu family’s money and not leave anything for Lu Yan. He would first spend a billion yuan to liven things up!
Gu Yao was silent. After a moment, he said, “Don’t worry about spending it! I have money! Don’t worry!”
Gu Zheng sneered.
Gu Yao was about to retort when he suddenly held back, his heart aching.
Sob, sob, sob. Gu Zheng was so pitiful. The family business that he had worked hard for all these years was going to be snatched away by someone else. He was still so calm as if everything had nothing to do with him.
This fool!
