"I'm sorry, Cong Rong, I recognized you who was sitting there just now and drawing, so I wanted to say hello to you. Isn't it scaring you? Xiao Zhengyun pulled Cong Rong aside. He took off his sunglasses and looked carefully at the girl in front of him, who looked like she had just been frightened and a little overwhelmed.

"Ah, no, no, it's okay, I'm not scared, I just feel a little surprised." Cong Rong endured the excitement in her heart and pretended to be calm, but her heartbeat was constantly accelerating.

"Was it a surprise to see me here?" Xiao Zhengyun asked curiously.

"Oh, yes. Yes, there was some surprise. I thought you had returned to China, but I didn't expect to bump into you here! Cong Rong said a little crampedly.

"Yes, I'm here this time, so I won't leave first, I'm going to stay here for a while. In recent years, more and more Chinese have poured in from Australia. My father thought it was time to send me over and develop the Australian market. Xiao Zhengyun Kaikai said.

"Well, yes, it's a good time indeed." Cong Rong said in agreement, while trying her best to control her breathing and heartbeat. When she heard Xiao Zhengyun say that she was going to stay in Sydney for a while, she felt that her heart was about to jump out.

"Are you going back to painting now?" Xiao Zhengyun looked at the young triangle army who were still working hard to raise funds not far away, and asked Cong Rong.

"Ah, if you don't mention it, I almost forgot! I was brought in today for a charity event at the Triangle Troop. What are you doing today? After Cong Rong finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Zhengyun's very formal light blue suit, and wanted to say something.

"Coincidentally, I'm going to participate in this charity event too! Why don't we join us? After Xiao Zhengyun finished with a smile, he made a very gentlemanly gesture to Cong Rong.

And Tang Song is still in his own home, and this woman named Yao Pei Pei continues to entangle.

"Tang Song, you have to give me an explanation today! Otherwise, you don't even want to go! Yao Pei Pei stared at his eyes and said cruel words to Tang Song.

"Pei Pei, when we started, I made it very clear to you, I'm not looking for a girlfriend, I'm just lonely and want to find someone to accompany me. Before we begin, I'll make this clear to you. Tang Song said to Yao Pei Pei very bluntly.

"Then you're not lonely now? How can you say that if you don't see it, you won't see it? Do you know that I now think about what you think about every day, without eating or drinking, and washing my face with tears? What makes me even more sad is that you actually lied to me that you went abroad! How can you lie to me? Yao Pei Pei burst into tears as he spoke. Although she knew that Tang Song was a person who didn't eat hard and soft, but now that she saw his very indifferent attitude, she could only hope that her combination of soft and hard could play a role in him.

"Then I won't lie to you now, I'll tell you the truth, I'm just tired of playing and don't want to see you anymore, are you satisfied?" Tang Song said indifferently.

"I, I've always regarded you as my true love! And, didn't you say that my cooking tastes very similar to hers, and you can't get tired of eating it. Originally, I thought I could cook for you for the rest of my life. Speaking of this, Yao Pei Pei cried aggrievedly.

"Pei Pei, listen to me. I know you're sad right now, and you may not be able to accept what I'm telling you for a while, which is why I didn't dare to be honest with you at that time. But I'm not really the person you're looking for, the two of us have to be over 15 years apart, and our ideas and lifestyles are so different. We don't have a common hobby at all, let alone talk to each other. I don't lack anything now, I just lack a lovely woman, but you are really not the woman I am looking for. Tang Song sat next to Yao Peipei and explained to her helplessly.

"Why am I not the woman you're looking for? You tell me! I'm young and beautiful, and I'm willing to give you a good year, I'm sincere to you, Tang Song! Yao Pei Pei began to get hysterical, no matter how Tang Song explained it, she still couldn't understand why Tang Song suddenly didn't want her.

"It's true that being young and beautiful is one of your assets, but it shouldn't be your only capital. Okay, Pei Pei, the apartment you live in to the north now, I'll have someone transfer the name to your name tomorrow. Now, wipe away your tears and let's get together. After Tang Song finished speaking, he grabbed the key, pulled up Yao Peipei, who was still shedding tears, and walked to the garage.

Along the way, Yao Pei Pei was still desperately trying to say something to Tang Song, but until she got out of the car, Tang Song responded to her with silence. She stared blankly at the Porsche that had already driven away from Tang and Song, and did not leave for a long time.

By the time Tang Song hurried to the charity gala, most of the party's itinerary had passed, and even when Zerologix delivered a speech as a first-class sponsor, it was temporarily replaced by an executive in his company. As soon as he found the table with the corresponding number, he saw Cao Ping waving to him, and he hurriedly walked over.

"Hello! Cong Rong, let's meet again." Tang Song greeted Cong Rong with a smile, and sat directly in the vacated seat next to her, which was specially arranged by Cao Ping in advance.

Cong Yihan, who was sitting next to her, saw that Tang Song had just sat down and quietly gave her husband Cao Ping a look, she looked at her husband again, looking absent-minded, and then turned to Cong Rong, and her niece suddenly had a disgusted expression on her face. She suddenly seemed to understand something, and her face darkened suddenly. Just as she was about to talk to her husband, the host on the stage opened up again.

“Now， I know that everyone in this room has been waiting for this moment. So, let's not waste more time and let the exciting auction begins! So, I'm not going to waste more of your time. Let's get started with the exciting auction now! ）。 After the host finished excitedly, a tall white girl slowly walked to the front desk holding a box containing a bottle of red wine.

The host began to introduce the wine box in the white girl's hand, "This year 2001 red wine has a long history back and it is donated by our State Governor, Peter Hoffmann. This collection also comes with Peter’s own signature and certificate. Apart from that， whoever gets this wine will gain the opportunity to have a properly presented photo with Governor Peter Hoffmann tonight! (This 2001 vintage is not a small wine.) It is a precious bottle donated by our Governor Peter Hoffmann, and it comes with Peter Hoffmann's autograph and certificate. It is worth mentioning that the lucky ones who took pictures of this reserve wine will have the opportunity to take a commemorative photo with the governor who was present today. The bottle is currently valued at $2,500. Today's starting bid price is $1,000. Let's start bidding now! )“

"$1,500!" A gentleman sitting at the back of the pack was the first to give the bidding price.

"2000 Australian dollars" immediately another person gave a higher price.

Soon the auction price for the bottle soared to $8,500. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the market value of the wine itself doesn't really matter, and it's not so much that these people are bidding for the wine, but rather that they are bidding for a chance to be in the same frame with Governor Peter Hoffmann in a formal setting, which is undoubtedly the best time for anyone to increase their company's exposure and popularity. Therefore, even if you bid at a high price now, you can make a big fuss about this news in the future, and it is not a loss-making business no matter how you think about it.

Tang Song, who was sitting on the side of "10,000 Australian dollars", also made a move at this time, he was already familiar with this kind of scene, and he had been waiting for the time when the price was ripe, aiming at the opportunity, and it was inevitable.

"Okay, our Mr. Tang of the zero series is now offering a price of 10,000 Australian dollars. Is there a higher bid? The host lost no time in starting to build momentum at this time.

"20,000 Australian dollars" At this time, a man sitting at the front of the banquet offered a higher price.

Everyone's attention was suddenly pulled by him, including Cong Rong.

"Ahh It was actually Xiao Zhengyun. Cong Rong saw a familiar back holding up the bidding sign, and the back was tall and straight. A ripple slid through her heart in an instant.

"Mr. Xiao from Zhongqin Piano also bid! $20,000! There is no higher price. The host said excitedly again.

"$40,000!" Not far from Xiao Zhengyun, a lady at the next table suddenly gave this somewhat exaggerated price. For a bottle of red wine with an estimated market value of only $2,500, even with the governor's signature and group photo, $40,000 is a relatively high bidding price.

Cong Rong, like the other guests at the venue, wanted to know who the person who quoted such a price was.

"Thank you to Mr. Lei of Legend Marketing, who gave a price of 40,000 Australian dollars! is really worthy of being a heroine among women, just domineering! The host looked at Mr. Lei, who had just taken office as the legendary marketing CEO in 2019, and couldn't help but praise a few more words.

Cong Rong also looked over. Although Legendary Marketing was her old club before entering Maxi, this was the first time she saw this Mr. Lei who had just taken office. "This woman is so beautiful, she's so glorious!" Cong Rong sighed mentally while watching.

"$80,000." The price given by Xiao Zhengyun instantly brought a new wave of commotion to the venue, and many guests present began to sigh at the bid he gave, including Tang and Song. He didn't continue to compete with the men and women in the front row. In his opinion, a reasonable auction price is 10,000 Australian dollars, and if you choose to sell at a price of 80,000 yuan or more, it is better to throw money into the company's internal market budget, and the return on investment is higher than certain.

The venue finally fell silent for a while, and Xiao Zhengyun finally bought the bottle of red wine given by Governor Peter Hoffmann for 80,000 Australian dollars.

Soon after, the charity dinner came to an end. Cong Rong wanted to walk forward and congratulate Xiao Zhengyun when the guests said goodbye to each other, but she saw that Mr. Lei, the legendary marketing person just now, walked up and talked to Xiao Zhengyun first.

Cong Rong had no choice but to stand aside, looking around at the large auditorium and the guests coming and going. At this time, someone walked up and patted her, it was her brother-in-law Cao Ping.

"Rong Rong, your aunt wants me to talk to you about it, we just met her old classmates at the venue, and they invited us to her house for a while. Otherwise, go home yourself. We can take a taxi back later. Cao Ping said with some embarrassment.

"That's good, I can take the subway back first, it's very convenient, when you want to leave her house at night, tell me that I can drive to pick you up when I arrive." Cong Rong said lightly.

"When we came, we didn't drive, otherwise, let Tang Song send you back first!" Cao Ping suddenly suggested.
