When Su Tang followed Huo Beiting to the entrance of the banquet hall, he began to verify the identity information with other guests.
When she handed the invitation letter to the staff, a staff member stuffed a note under the invitation letter and whispered to her: "Mrs. Huo, there is a lady who asked me to give you this note—— "
After saying that, the staff member returned to his normal expression and his eyes seemed to be looking in a certain direction.
Su Tang looked in his direction and saw Mu Nian standing not far from the banquet hall, looking directly at her.
Mu Nian?
Su Tang was surprised. Just when he was wondering why she handed him the note, Huo Beiting noticed the direction of her gaze.
"What's wrong?"
When Huo Beiting looked in the same direction as her, Mu Nian had already lowered his head and left in a hurry, leaving only a blurry corner of his clothes to them.
"Nothing, I'm going to the bathroom first."
Su Tang looked away, said hello to Huo Beiting, then turned and walked to the bathroom, and opened the note handed to her by the staff.
I saw four crooked words written on the white note: Be careful of the Mu family.
At first glance, this handwriting was written with the left hand, obviously not wanting to be recognized.
She is worthy of being the heroine of Black Heart Lotus in the book, she is so scheming.
Not only did he want to sell her a favor, but he was also worried that she would turn around and sell her out, and the Mu family would find out.
Su Tang raised his eyebrows, threw the note into the toilet, and flushed it with water.
She has no actual conflict of interest with Mu Nian now, and if there is one in the future, she will not show mercy.
After coming out of the bathroom, Su Tang returned to the banquet hall and sat down next to Huo Beiting.
She didn't plan to hide this matter from Huo Beiting, it was mainly to offend the Mu family, but they did it together, so everyone still shared the same difficulties.
"Huo Beiting, I just received a note."
The moment Su Tang leaned closer, Huo Beiting subconsciously wanted to retreat.
But I felt it was impolite, so I frowned slightly and endured it.
Fortunately, Su Tang maintained a safe social distance, stopped at the critical point, and continued: "The note said, be careful of the Mu family. It seems that there is a tough battle to be fought tonight?"
Speaking of the following words, Su Tang didn't seem worried or scared at all, but instead felt faintly excited.
Huo Beiting looked at her sideways, "Who gave you the note?"
She knew Huo Beiting would ask this question, but she had already tacitly agreed in her heart that she would not mention Mu Nian's name to anyone.
"An unknown good man named Lei Feng."
Huo Beiting looked at her like a fool for two seconds, then withdrew his gaze and continued to look straight ahead.
"Participate in the auction with peace of mind. Don't worry about the Mu family."
Hearing what Huo Beiting said, Su Tang felt relieved. Anyway, even if the Mu family wanted to become a monster, he would be there to stop it.
As the banquet hall gradually filled up, the charity dinner officially kicked off with the host's announcement.
The collections in this auction are all finished products of rare jewelry and jade, with a total of 18 pieces.
The first thing to appear was a pair of drop-shaped Hetian jade earrings. The jade is transparent and of excellent color.
The starting price was one thousand, but within a short time, the price had already reached one hundred thousand.
Su Tang looked at these various bidders and felt that the people at this charity auction were obviously more interesting than the objects being auctioned.
Especially diagonally in front, there are the two women who are red-faced arguing over the price increase, and the man sandwiched between the two women, looking as embarrassed as a sandwich biscuit.
Seeing how embarrassed he was as he kept wiping his sweat, sometimes coaxing the woman on the left, and sometimes coaxing the bidder on the right, Su Tang thought to himself, this must be a scumbag who has two sides, and is discovered by the other party.
[The graceful and handsome one on the left, who is about the same age as the man, should be his first wife. The man is coaxing his first wife, but his eyes are full of impatience. It is obviously not as good as the one on the right, who is young and pretty, and knows how to hold his arm and act coquettishly. Lovers are patient. 】
[Men in this world are all the same as expected, eating from the bowl and looking into the pot. I wonder if a man like Huo Beiting will do such immoral things in the future? 】
Originally, Su Tang was gossiping, but Huo Beiting ignored it and pretended not to hear it.
Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly changed the topic to himself.
"Su Tang, are you very free?"
Huo Beiting looked at Su Tang displeased, his low and cold voice filled with chill.
Su Tang:? ? ?
Huo Beiting took the wrong medicine again. She didn't say or do anything. Why did he suddenly question her?
"Has Lawyer Huo been paying attention to me?"
"Otherwise, how do you know if I am idle?"
Su Tang was not a vegetarian either, so he immediately retorted and raised provocative eyebrows.
"..."
Huo Beiting kept a cold face and stopped talking.
For a long time after that, he didn't look in Su Tang's direction again.
Su Tang was also happy to be free and continued to observe the guests bidding in the auction hall with boredom.
When the tenth piece of the collection, an emerald and diamond necklace with a white diamond bezel setting and a net weight of ten carats, appeared in front of the bidders and started bidding with a starting price of 1.5 million, Su Tang Soon a familiar voice was heard.
"One million six hundred thousand!"
Looking towards the source of the sound, Su Tang saw Huo Zixuan, two rows away from them, holding a number plate and looking determined to win.
And next to Huo Zixuan, Yi Tianling kept urging her to increase the price quickly and must win this necklace.
[If my guess is correct, this necklace should be the necklace Yi Tianling used to trick Huo Zixuan and plan to use it to please his little lover. Huo Zixuan is really a pure and innocent bastard. 】
[Spend money for your boyfriend, please other women, and sympathize with Huo Zixuan for three seconds. 】
Su Tang was sighing in her heart, and suddenly Huo Beiting whispered in her ear: "Su Tang, raise your sign——"
Before Su Tang could react, her wrist was grasped by a strong hand, and their number 21 was raised high.
Su Tang was stunned, "No, Huo Beiting, you want to steal something from your niece?"
Huo Beiting didn't answer her, but thought firmly in his heart that Huo Zixuan would never be allowed to be the scapegoat for that pretty boy who spent money to please his lover.
The Huo family must not spend a penny on such a top-notch scumbag.
"Two million, if you take the photo, this necklace will be yours."
Huo Beiting couldn't explain much, but Su Tang's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.
【give me? The iron rooster who has never pruned his hair is ready to bleed with courage. Don't give up on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! 】
As a result, Su Tang raised his head to bid and his voice became particularly clear and powerful: "Two million!"
Huo Zixuan's eyes widened several times when she saw Su Tang bidding for the same auction item as her.
Why was Su Tang bidding for the same necklace with her? He was so arrogant, and his uncle didn't care about it?
