Unfortunately, when Gu Mingzhe urged the women to go in earlier, they did not listen to him. They never got to introduce themselves to the crowd beforehand. So what if the attendees of the auction now knew that they were from a second-tier wealthy family? They had already offended so many first-tier wealthy families to this extent. Only a fool would pay attention to them now!
Huang Yuhan was completely embarrassed.
Sea District’s Wu family was much more powerful than the Huang family! In fact, some of the Huang family’s businesses were under their control, and she actually offended Sea District’s Miss Wu.
It was at this moment that she was hit with the epiphany that many unassuming powerhouses were present at this auction.
Zhong Qianqian had truly trolled her to death.
If Zhong Qianqian was not the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, Huang Yuhan would have already slapped her.
“Hmph!”
Unable to find anything else to say, Huang Yuhan snorted and left.
However, Xiao Shenbi’s voice rang coldly from behind. “Miss Huang, you insulted my sister-in-law. Are you leaving without even a basic apology?”
Huang Yuhan felt that she suffered great humiliation. She turned around and wanted to complain coquettishly in a manner that could make Xiao Shenbin realize that she was from a wealthy family. Zhong Nuannuan? She was just a military wife.
However, Gu Mingzhe knew what Huang Yuhan was up to this time and stopped her just in the nick of time.
“Young Master Xiao, Commander, Elder Wu, Miss Wu, Chi Yang, Nuannuan, I’m really sorry. My cousin is still a child, and she’s not being very sensible that she offended you with her words. Please forgive this girl for her childish mistakes.”
Xiao Shenbin sneered. “Child? Young Master Gu, don’t you know the basic rules of attending an auction? You can’t bring a child into the venue. This is the basic requirement. Now you’re telling me that she’s a child?”
Gu Mingzhe kept his temper in check before Young Master Xiao, who was from a first-tier wealthy family. He nodded quickly. “Yes, yes. I thought that since Lil Han is already 16 years old, and she insists on coming, I brought her here. I never expected…”
“Hehe, she’s still a child at 16 years old. Is she mentally challenged?”
Xiao Shenbin’s words were intended to be utterly disrespectful to Huang Yuhan and Gu Mingzhe. That had thrown them into an extremely awkward situation.
Gu Mingzhe looked at Huang Yuhan but he dared not speak too harshly to her either. He advised Huang Yuhan, “Lil Han, apologize to Young Master Xiao.”
Huang Yuhan’s face was filled with unwillingness, but out of respect to Young Master Xiao’s status, she reluctantly muttered, “I’m sorry, Young Master Xiao.”
Xiao Shenbin replied with a sneer. “Am I the one you should be sorry to? You’ve obviously wronged my sister-in-law.”
“Lil Han, hurry up and apologize to your Big Sis Nuannuan,” Gu Mingzhe urged.
Huang Yuhan reached an agreement with Zhong Qianqian beforehand that they would take Zhong Nuannuan, this country bumpkin, down a notch. Who would have expected that Huang Yuhan was defeated before they could score their final win? Not only was she slapped by Zhong Nuannuan, she even became the target of public criticism.
She felt aggrieved.
Huang Yuhan glanced at Zhong Qianqian and saw a hint of resentment flash across her face. Thinking about what her mother told her—she had to prioritize Zhong Qianqian, only then would she value her more, thus…
Huang Yuhan, who had already shrunk after giving in, suddenly puffed up her dumpling-like breasts and shouted at Zhong Nuannuan, “My Big Sis Nuannuan? What kind of ‘Big Sis’ does she think she is? Zhong Qianqian is my only Big Sis, not Zhong Nuannuan. Since she mistreats my Big Sis, I won’t treat her well either.”
“Alright, let’s go.” Chi Yang looked at Zhong Nuannuan and felt that there was no need to continue talking to Huang Yuhan.
If the Huang family perished one day, Huang Yuhan could only blame herself for offending his Nuannuan.
