The auction was held in an art gallery with carved beams and painted buildings.

Yesterday, people in the group were still gossiping about Han Shiming and Lu Xingchen, but today they have changed the topic and are all talking about this auction.

Most of the guests invited to an auction of this level are from the capital's aristocratic families.

Ji Yu saw someone say that the Han family and the Lu family also received invitations. Just as he guessed, this auction would probably trigger some important plots.

The auction will be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

At one o'clock, the butler picked out a custom-made suit for Ji Yu and a thick cashmere coat on the outside.

He protested, but to no avail.

The housekeeper said that for such an important occasion, one should not dress too casually. It is best to wear a suit so as not to be looked down upon.

When the time came, the driver drove him out and went to Longteng Group to pick up Yuan Shenghe who had just got off work, just like last time, and then went to the auction at Yayun Art Museum together.

"The butler has prepared three sets of replacement clothes for you this time."

After Yuan Shenghe got in the car, Ji Yu smiled and handed him the custom-made suit wrapped in a bag.

"Why did you prepare so much this time?" Yuan Shenghe took off the tie around his neck and responded to him while changing it.

"You used both sets I prepared last time. The housekeeper said that it's better to be prepared. We should always keep one set as a backup. Besides, Han Shiming and Lu Xingchen should also go this time." Ji Yu said with a teasing look on his face.

These words immediately brought back the bad memories of Yuan Shenghe at the last birthday party.

Not only were the clothes soiled by the waiter, but also there were those strange details after meeting Lu Xingchen afterwards.

He later thought carefully about the situation.

With his personality, he would never pay attention to people like Lu Xingchen, but he actually followed him to another staircase in the corridor.

The memory in his mind told him that he agreed to help because the other party begged him for help and he was soft-hearted.

This memory seemed to tell him clearly that there was no problem, but in Yuan Shenghe's view it was the biggest problem.

He can't be soft-hearted.

"What do you think of Han Shiming and Lu Xingchen?"

Ji Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect him to ask him such a question. Suddenly he remembered what he said about Lu Xingchen yesterday, which was strange. He started to wonder if he had discovered something.

"I think they must be having an affair!"

"Although Lu Xingchen concealed it very well and kept a social distance from Han Shiming, the look Han Shiming gave him was clearly filled with love."

Lu Xingchen actually has no love for Han Shiming, he is more of a use for him, so he doesn't need to act at all, he just needs to show his true self.

According to his guess, even if Lu Xingchen had not completely conquered Han Shiming, Han Shiming must have a very high favorability towards him now.

In this case, Han Shiming needs to pretend that he is not interested in Lu Xingchen.

This kind of thing is very easy to reveal flaws. Some people will find that Han Shimin's attention has always been on Lu Xingchen after observing for a period of time.

Only if you like the other person will you behave like this.

Yuan Shenghe nodded. He was not interested in other people's feelings, but after experiencing what happened yesterday, he observed Lu Xingchen again and found that there was a lot of incongruity around him.

This sense of disharmony also includes his relationship with Han Shiming.

Today's auction is the last one held by the Yayun Art Museum this year and also the largest one. There is a long red carpet at the entrance.

Whenever an invited guest comes, someone will come forward to pick him up and take him to the auction venue.

Ji Yu followed Yuan Shenghe out of the car. He had walked the red carpet with Hou Bei more than once before, so he didn't feel anything.

However, thinking about the possibility of some dramatic plots happening next, he looked forward to it.

Seeing that he was about to leave excitedly, Yuan Shenghe pulled him back.

"You don't want a boyfriend anymore?"

"Oh, let's go in then."

After Ji Yu finished speaking, he continued to walk forward. Before he took two steps, Yuan Shenghe hooked his wrist in his arm.

"Go together."

Ji Yu looked down at the two people's hands hooked together, then looked around and saw that almost all the women took the initiative to hold the arms of their male companions.

Occasionally, two men walked in together, and they went their separate ways. Noticing someone looking over here, he said something tactfully.

"Isn't this bad?"

"What's wrong with it?" Yuan Shenghe asked calmly.

"That would make me look like a bitch."

Yuan Shenghe said calmly: "If I remember correctly, you have already announced our relationship in public at the Qu family's birthday banquet."

Ji Yu raised his chin and said disapprovingly: "So what? Our relationship has nothing to do with the current situation."

Yuan Shenghe raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Do you think that if you don't put your hand in my arm, others won't be able to see your size?"

Ji Yu: “…”

Yuan Shenghe continued, "I suggest you stay calm about this kind of thing. Don't worry about what others think. We just need to have a clear conscience."

The corner of Ji Yu's mouth twitched. He and Yuan Shenghe, unless they were people with extremely picky tastes, would not think that he was the one mentioned above.

"If you mind, we can walk side by side." Yuan Shenghe certainly wouldn't force him and was about to let go of his hand.

"Forget it, let's just go." Ji Yu immediately grabbed his hand.

A smile flashed across Yuan Shenghe's eyes, "If you don't worry about others thinking you're a sissy, then what?"

"I thought about it. Everyone knows that we are a couple. If we separate, it will only make things worse. Besides, we don't have to be like everyone else."

As Ji Yu spoke, he grabbed his hand, spread out his palm, and interlocked their fingers.

Yuan Shenghe's palms were much bigger than his, and there were some calluses between his thumb and index finger, which were the marks left by years of signing.

However, because he had been a soldier before, he had many calluses on his palms, but his fingers were long and straight like sword blades, just like he gave people the feeling of determination and sharpness. Being wrapped in his palms made one feel particularly safe.

"Look, isn't this better?" Ji Yu raised their intertwined hands and smiled very proudly.

Yuan Shenghe stared at his smiling face. His skin was white and tender, and his smile was as bright as the sun, making him smile involuntarily.

There was a click.

A photographer captured this scene.

The two people who heard the sound looked towards the photographer, and the photographer hurriedly explained.

"I'm sorry, the scene just now was so beautiful that I couldn't help but take the photo. If you don't want me to, I can delete it now."

Having said that, there was some reluctance on the photographer's face.

"After the photos are developed, send me a copy of the negatives and photos." Yuan Shenghe took out a business card from his pocket, "Call this number and he will tell you where to send it."

The photographer's face changed from reluctance to shock and flattery.

Until Yuan Shenghe and Ji Yu went in, he still felt like he was dreaming.

The others saw this scene and were extremely envious and jealous.

This is Yuan Shenghe, the current head of the two major groups and the Yuan family.

The number of people in this world to whom he can personally hand out his business cards can probably be counted on one hand.

If they had known that Yuan Shenghe was so easy to talk to, they would have followed his example.

Now that everyone has gone in, I'm afraid there's no chance.

This incident can become a "postcard" or "stepping stone" for the photographer in the future. They can already imagine the other party's bright future.
