Without noticing that there was a person watching behind him, and he didn't see the listener, Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he frowned and glared at Chu Yan, "What do you want to do?"

Chen Rui was quite helpless when he said this.

Chu Yan looked at him with an accusatory look.

"Why are you stopping me, why aren't you letting me do it directly?"

"Well, now the cultural relics have been photographed by you, but after spending so much money, it is impossible for the boss to give you this money, let alone let you leave the things. ”

"Do you want me to owe you a great favor, and what is your purpose?"

Chen Rui felt speechless when he heard these words.

This is kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs.

"20 million to shoot a bronze tripod destined to be handed over, do you think I won't feel distressed?" After a moment of stunnedness, Chen Rui scolded in a low voice.

"Hmph!" Chu Yan snorted coldly and said, "You deserve it, if you had asked me to act just now, would you still be like this now." ”

Chen Rui now has 10,000 regrets in his heart, he shouldn't have promised Chu Yan to bring him in before, let alone this trip to troubled waters.

But now that the people have been brought in, you can't help but let him go out.

"You're still being unreasonable, and have you figured out the current situation?"

Chu Yan glanced coldly at the black market auction house bodyguards standing guard around her, arrogant and disdainful.

"What if there are so many of them? I'm from the Security Bureau, as long as I reveal my identity, what will they dare to do to me? Dare not hand over the cultural relics to me?"

When the words landed, Chen Rui laughed directly.

"If I meddle in your affairs in the future, I won't be surnamed Chen, and I've never seen someone as selfish as you. ”

"That's right, you're definitely fine, as long as you still want to get mixed up in the middle of the city, you don't dare to do it as a person who shows your identity in public, and you don't dare to openly oppose the Security Bureau. ”

"But have you thought about me and Elder Gao? ”

"If you are your identity, there will still be a place for us in the future, and what auction house will dare to invite us in the future?"

Chen Rui's sneering voice landed, Chu Yan's complexion changed, and there was a little shame in his eyes.

"Didn't I have time to think about it that much? What now? You spent 20 million. ”

Thinking of this, Chu Yan also had a headache.

The cultural relics smuggling case of the big investigation, the smuggled cultural relics are not just this bronze tripod, if everything has to be bought back for so much money, then there is no need to investigate the case, and they can't afford it.

Even if Chen Rui spends money, she can't afford to owe so much favor.

"Don't make up your own minds, I'll take care of the rest of the matter, you sit honestly, don't make trouble for me, and don't say the best words. ”

"Otherwise, don't say that you are just my eldest brother Hu Lei's classmate, you are his own sister and his wife, and I will not be polite to you. ”

Chen Rui's majestic and irresistible voice came out immediately.

Chu Yan bit her lip and nodded in agreement.

Chen Rui then sighed again, only then did he suppress the irritability in his heart, and he looked like he was in love with Chu Yan at work, and took her to the side to drink.

The two of them ate pastries, drank some wine, and returned to their seats when the second half of the auction was about to begin.

Gao Xuecheng had been standing in his seat, ignoring the interaction between Chen Rui and Chu Yan that happened next to him, as if he didn't notice it.

But how could he not be aware?

He just doesn't want to mind the juniors.

After Chen Rui sat down, he looked at Gao Xuecheng with a wry smile, revealing a touch of apology.

Gao Xuecheng nodded, didn't say anything, and motioned for Chen Rui to concentrate on watching the auction.

As the music stops, the performers on the stage reced, the lights are turned back on, and the second half of the auction begins.

Just spent 20 million on the wronged leader, Chen Rui was also a little heartbroken at the moment, and he was a little absent-minded when he watched the auction.

Although he has money, he doesn't have much money on hand, a total of tens of millions, and the 20 million is considered hemorrhage.

After frowning and feeling pained for a long time, Chen Rui regained his spirits and concentrated on watching the auction.

However, for the auction items that were taken out later, he was not interested, so he only bought a jade flute, and nothing else was sold.

As time passed, the auction ended for good.

Everyone dispersed, but Chen Rui was not in a hurry.

Sure enough, a staff member soon arrived.

"Hello Mr. Chen, our manager would like to invite you to tea. ”

When the words landed, Chu Yan's eyes lit up instantly, and she stood up directly.

The staff then smiled wryly, "Our manager only invited Mr. Chen alone. ”

"Elder Gao, the tea room over there has also prepared good tea for you, why don't you go over and drink some tea first and wait for a while?"

The staff did not dare to slack off on Gao Xuecheng, the leader of the antique industry, but their attitude towards Chu Yan was much colder.

Chu Yan was a little unwilling, and wanted to follow Chen Rui to find out the information, Chen Rui glanced at her coldly, she finally gave in, and followed Gao Xuecheng to the tearoom to wait.

Chen Rui was also invited to another tea room with the staff, and the manager of the auction was already waiting.

"Brother Chen came at the right time, my tea has just been brewed, sit down. ”

The manager greeted warmly and personally poured tea for Chen Rui.

Chen Rui looked flattered and took it with both hands.

After drinking the tea, Chen Rui said again, "I'm really embarrassed today, my girlfriend is so ignorant, don't worry, the manager will definitely not bring her next time." ”

The manager didn't mind much, and raised his eyebrows, looking at Chen Rui meaningfully.

"Brother Chen is so young and promising, but he is so attentive to his girlfriend, he is really a rare lover. ”

"But those are just small things, and Mr. Chen doesn't need to take them to heart all the time. ”

The two drank tea and chatted for a while, because suddenly their faces were straight.

"By the way, the bronze tripod just now, after taking a picture, I asked my master to take a closer look, and he liked it very much. ”

"I wonder if there are any antiques of the same batch in your auction?"

The antique world likes to collect antiques, and the manager has no doubts, and this time he hesitated for a moment or lowered his voice to reply.

"This is also Brother Chen, you, I will definitely not say anything else. ”

"It was put up for auction by someone from a mysterious organization, and they do have other antiques from the same batch, but for some reason I can't look for them again. ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Rui's eyes showed a hint of surprise, "It's inconvenient, why?"

The manager looked warily in the direction of the door, then at the window, and his expression became more solemn.

"I don't say anything about the people in this circle, Brother Chen should also roughly understand what kind of organization they are. ”

"They're ruthless, they're crazy for money, so it's better to have less contact. ”
