Chapter 50: The price you can't afford
Zhong Jiaqi followed Qi Jingchen to meet several well-known businessmen in Zhen City, and after negotiating a project by the way, the charity auction finally began.
Qi Jingchen took Zhong Jiaqi to sit in the first row, he didn't have any interest in other lots, all he wanted was Wushuang.
Finally, Wushuang appeared in everyone's field of vision as the third lot, with a beautiful azure gemstone next to a dazzling diamond, noble and cold.
Zhu Lin's eyes lit up just now when she saw this necklace, and she tugged at Yao Jun's sleeve: "Yao Jun, I want this necklace."
Yao Jun is not stupid, he can naturally see that this necklace is worth a lot of money, but on today's occasion, with an identity like him, he can't get in at all, or Zhu Lin followed Zhu Zhenbang's face, so he brought him in, he met a lot of people at the banquet, and he also tasted the sweetness, although Zhu Zhenbang is not sitting next to him and Zhu Lin now, but Yao Jun knows that Zhu Zhenbang will definitely pay attention to his movements, so he had to grit his teeth and promise Zhu Lin that he would definitely take a picture of this necklace and give it to her.
Wushuang's starting price is five million, Tang Qinglian likes this necklace, Zhong Jiaqi will naturally not be sloppy, she is the first to hold up the sign.
Zhu Lin sat in the back and saw Zhong Jiaqi holding up the sign, the whole person was even more excited, Zhong Jiaqi was out of the limelight tonight, she must take a picture of this necklace and slap Zhong Jiaqi's face well.
She tugged at Yao Jun's sleeve: "Hurry up and bid!"
Yao Jun saw Zhong Jiaqi holding up the sign, he flinched a little, he still had thoughts about Zhong Jiaqi in his heart, and he didn't want to go against Zhong Jiaqi, but in order to save face for Qi Jingchen, the people present did not increase the price, and Zhu Lin, who was sitting next to him, kept urging him, Yao Jun had to raise the sign in his hand.
Zhong Jiaqi glanced back, Zhu Lin and Yao Jun were really going to find trouble for her, Zhong Jiaqi didn't think about it, and raised the sign in his hand again.
Suddenly, a situation was formed on the field in which Zhong Jiaqi and Yao Jun kept raising prices.
Everyone here felt that Yao Jun was really stupid and bubbling, where could Yao Jun's company compare with Jing Feng, he was completely against Qi Jingchen by doing this now.
Yao Jun is also sweating now, the price of Wushuang has now been raised to 15 million by him and Zhong Jiaqi, the problem of Junhe Real Estate has just been solved, he has returned 5 million to Zhong Jiaqi, he really can't afford to come up with so much cash now, so no matter what Zhu Lin says, Yao Jun refuses to raise his cards anymore.
Where could Zhu Lin swallow this breath, she raised the sign in her hand and shouted: "Twenty million!"
Zhong Jiaqi once again raised the sign in her hand, she could only take out 25 million in her hand, this can only be the last time she raised the card.
Of course, Zhu Lin will not stop there: "Twenty-five million."
Qi Jingchen knew Zhong Jiaqi's financial resources, grabbed Zhong Jiaqi's hand, held up the sign himself, and said neatly: "Fifty million!"
Zhu Lin stared at Qi Jingchen's back with some astonishment, even if the jealousy in her heart had swallowed her reason, she also knew that she couldn't take out so much money, so she had to stop in disgust.
Qi Jingchen turned his head to Zhong Jiaqi's ear and said, "The next time we meet, you can give this necklace to my mother, she will be very happy."
Zhong Jiaqi waved his hand: "This necklace was taken by you, how can I take your necklace and give it to your mother?"
"Don't you want to my mom anymore?" Qi Jingchen said jokingly.
"Of course I want to," Zhong Jiaqi still wanted to try her best to draw in the relationship between herself and Tang Qinglian, "Otherwise, this auction will be regarded as the money I borrowed from you, and I will pay you back later, if you don't want my money, I won't accept this necklace." ”
Qi Jingchen understood Zhong Jiaqi's persistence, so he said, "Who said I don't want your money anymore?"
"Then let's say okay, I borrowed the 50 million from you."
Qi Jingchen smiled and nodded.
After the auction ended, Qi Ziqing stopped Zhong Jiaqi, and she was holding a box in her hand: "Jiaqi, when you arrived at Qi's house before, I didn't prepare a gift for you, and today I will make up for the meeting."
After speaking, she put the box in Zhong Jiaqi's hand.
Qi Ziqing patted a bracelet tonight, Zhong Jiaqi naturally knew what was in this box, but the price of this bracelet was even comparable to Wushuang, where was Zhong Jiaqi embarrassed to accept such a valuable gift, she refused and said: "Auntie, this gift is too expensive, I can't ask for it."
Qi Ziqing frowned slightly: "Since you call me aunt, you should accept this gift, you are married to Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen will ask you in the future, this gift is what you deserve, don't be polite to me."
The corners of Qi Jingchen's mouth hooked slightly, and he said with a faint smile: "Since my aunt has already said so, you can accept it."
Qi Ziqing has already said this, if she doesn't accept it again, it will seem that she is hypocritical, she smiled sweetly and said, "Then thank you aunt."
"It's good for you guys, I'll leave first if I have something to do."
"Goodbye, Auntie!"
The auction was over, and Qi Jingchen naturally took Zhong Jiaqi out.
"Jiaqi, you wait for me at the door, I'll go to the parking lot and drive the car to the door."
Zhong Jiaqi knew that Qi Jingchen was distressed that she had walked all day in high heels, nodded obediently, and walked to the door to wait for Qi Jingchen.
Zhu Lin, who was unwilling, followed Zhong Jiaqi all the time, and after seeing Qi Jingchen leave, she grabbed Yao Jun's hand, walked in front of Zhong Jiaqi, and said angrily: "Zhong Jiaqi, why do you have to fight against me everywhere, even a necklace, do you have to fight with me?"
Zhong Jiaqi's face flashed a cold smile, Zhu Lin is really good at beating back, it is clear that Zhu Lin is against her everywhere, and now he dares to lose his temper at her.
She said unceremoniously: "Zhu Lin, since you don't have that ability, why do you want to slap a swollen face and become fat?" If you need me to let you go, you should have begged me earlier, maybe I will give you the necklace if I am soft-hearted! ”
Where could Zhu Lin stand such anger, and said angrily: "Zhong Jiaqi, do you think you are really rich? In the end, it was not Qi Jingchen who took pictures of this necklace, and there was nothing worth showing off by relying on men. ”
Zhong Jiaqi glanced coldly at Yao Jun, who was standing beside Zhu Lin: "It's better than you, if you want to rely on a man, there is no one who can be relied on."
Yao Jun's face turned red at what Zhong Jiaqi said, and he didn't dare to speak.
Zhu Lin also glanced at Yao Jun viciously, but at this time, she couldn't lose her momentum, so she still took the initiative to hold Yao Jun's arm.
"But, isn't it Yao Jun that you like?" Zhu Lin thought of Zhong Jiaqi's lost expression when she was in the detention center, and instantly regained her confidence, "You must be very uncomfortable watching Yao Jun with me, I heard that you are with Qi Jingchen, you won't marry Qi Jingchen in frustration because Yao Jun is going to marry me." ”
In Zhong Jiaqi's heart, Yao Jun couldn't even compare to Qi Jingchen's fingers, but now that Zhu Lin hadn't married Yao Jun, she still held back the disdain in her heart and avoided this question: "Zhu Lin, if you want to tell me about Wushuang, then I'm sorry, that necklace is already mine, don't think about it anymore, if you want to say something else, I'm sorry, I'm not interested at all."
Zhu Lin thought that she had poked Zhong Jiaqi's sore spot, and said even more proudly: "I just want to tell you that I will marry Yao Jun next week, and you must come to participate."
At this time, a tall and straight figure walked in, he put his arm around Zhong Jiaqi's shoulder, and glanced at Zhu Lin coldly.
Zhu Lin thought that Qi Jingchen had left, so he dared to provoke Zhong Jiaqi, but now that Qi Jingchen saw it like this, Zhu Lin was so frightened that she took a step back.
"Don't worry, Jiaqi and I will definitely attend your wedding, but I advise you to stay away from Jiaqi in the future, otherwise the price will be unbearable for you."
Zhu Lin was looked at by Qi Jingchen's angry eyes, and couldn't help but shrink a little, unable to say a word, Qi Jingchen didn't want to talk nonsense with such a person, so he took Zhong Jiaqi's hand and took her away.
Looking at the backs of Zhong Jiaqi and Qi Jingchen leaving, Zhu Lin stomped his feet angrily, and shouted to Yao Jun dissatisfiedly: "Yao Jun, why don't you refuse to buy me Wushuang, look at Qi Jingchen, look at you again!"
Yao Jun still has Zhong Jiaqi in his heart, so he simply hates Qi Jingchen to death, but Zhu Lin still said in front of him that he is not as good as Qi Jingchen, and the anger in Yao Jun's heart is ignited little by little.
But thinking of everything he saw tonight, Yao Jun tasted the sweetness of becoming the son-in-law of the Zhu family, even if he didn't like Zhu Lin, but in order to make Junhe Real Estate go further, and in order to satisfy his vanity, he must marry Zhu Lin, and now that he can bear these humiliations, he will definitely come back when the time comes.
Yao Jun pretended to love Zhu Lin deeply: "Linlin, I know I can't give you much now, but I love you, and I am willing to work hard for you and our baby, as long as you believe in me, I will definitely be able to surpass Qi Jingchen and no longer let you be bullied in any way."
Zhu Lin still has feelings for Yao Jun, and Yao Jun's affectionate appearance now also satisfies her vanity, and Zhu Lin no longer pursues that he is not as good as Qi Jingchen, making her lose face in front of Zhong Jiaqi.
"Forget it, I don't blame you for this matter, it's all Zhong Jiaqi's who deliberately embarrassed me," Zhu Lin said hatefully, "After we get married, I will be my father's only daughter, and he will definitely help you when the time comes." ”
Yao Jun was overjoyed when he got Zhu Lin's assurance, and gently dropped a kiss on Zhu Lin's forehead: "Linlin, you are so good!"
Zhu Lin said proudly: "That's natural, okay, you can send me home!"
Zhu Lin didn't expect that as soon as she walked into the door of the Zhu family, the housekeeper walked up to her and said respectfully, "Miss, the master asked you to go to his study."
"Okay." Zhu Lin didn't dare to disobey Zhu Zhenbang's words, and obediently walked into Zhu Zhenbang's study.
Zhu Zhenbang stood by the window with his back to her, not knowing what he was looking at.
Zhu Lin cautiously called: "Dad!"
Zhu Zhenbang turned around and raised his hand to leave a slap on Zhu Lin's face.
Since she was a child, Zhu Lin has never been beaten like this, Zhu Zhenbang has scolded her for two sentences at most, and has never moved, Zhu Lin was slapped inexplicably, she covered her face and looked at Zhu Zhenbang in a daze: "Dad, why did you suddenly hit me?"
Zhu Zhenbang was so angry that Zhu Lin's face flushed: "Do you know what you did tonight?"
Zhu Lin shook her head in confusion: "Dad, I didn't do anything!"
