Hou Yuqiang has a handsome and elegant appearance, a gentle temperament, and a high level of education. He looks like a Confucian businessman.

The illegitimate child looks okay, but his temperament and skills are a little lacking.

"You don't mind if I insult him a little, right?" Tang An Ning turned his head and asked Luo Baozhu in a low voice.

Luo Baozhu glanced at Tang Anning and replied in a low voice: "Of course I don't mind."

"Baozhu, you're here?" Hou Yuqiang's tone was gentle yet a little happy, just like all fathers who love their daughters.

Perhaps, Luo Baozhu is Hou Yuqiang's daughter after all, and Hou Yuqiang really loves Luo Baozhu, but in the end he cannot match the entire Luotian Group.

Luo Baozhu called out "Dad" indifferently. Hou Yuqiang smiled helplessly and turned his gaze to Tang Anning: "Miss Tang, I have heard of your name for a long time. Thank you for taking care of my Baozhu these two days."

Tang An Ning squeezed Luo Baozhu's hand, and said with a smile as if they were good sisters: "Uncle Luo, what are you talking about? Baozhu is the first friend I met after returning to Longguo."

After he finished speaking, Tang An Ning pretended to be someone who had just remembered something and suddenly realized something, with an embarrassed smile on his face: "Sorry, Uncle Hou, I forgot that you had changed your name back in the past two years."

When Hou Yuqiang first married into the family, he changed his name to Luo Yuqiang in order to please his father-in-law and wife. It was not until about ten years ago that he changed it back because of difficulties in obtaining some documents.

In the early years, people called Hou Yuqiang "Mr. Luo", and later he changed his name back to "Mr. Hou".

This matter has always been a shame for Hou Yuqiang. He has been in a high position for a long time. He knows that some people call him "the one from the Luo family" behind his back, but there is really no one who dares to call him by his surname Luo to his face.

The girl in front of me did it on purpose.

Hou Yuqiang knew it very well.

He is getting older, and his temper is gradually changing. Such a mild remark from Uncle Luo did make him unhappy, but it did not cause him to have a greater emotional change.

In addition, he was wary of the mysterious and powerful background of the daughter of Prince Tang's Mansion and the now prosperous An Ning Group, so he quickly suppressed his unhappiness.

Luo Baozhu lowered her head slightly, as if admiring her nails, and then raised her head again.

Only Luo Baozhu herself knew how big the curve of her mouth was when she lowered her head just now.

Hou Yuqiang smiled and said it was okay, then asked, "Miss Tang, do you have anything you like?"

Hou Yuqiang wanted to see if he could figure out Tang Anning's preferences.

He glanced at his son who was standing quietly behind him without leaving a trace, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Among his several illegitimate children, this son was the one he was most satisfied with.

Baozhu... Is it a daughter or a son who is more likely to inherit his genes?

Moreover, Baozhu cannot take his surname, but his son can change it to his surname later.

He had to find a way to help his son make connections.

I heard that Miss Tang loves to play. If my son can enter Miss Tang’s circle of friends, it will give him an extra boost when he gets promoted in the future.

Moreover, I heard that Miss Tang likes young and handsome boys...and her son's appearance is not bad either.

If his son could win over Miss Tang, they would not necessarily have to get married. Even if they were just a simple boyfriend and girlfriend, as long as they went to bed, he would give the secret recipe to his son and let Miss Tang get pregnant with his son's child.

No matter how ambitious a woman is, once she has a child, she can be easily manipulated, right?

Hou Yuqiang had a perfect idea. After talking to Tang An Ning for a few words, he hinted to his son to talk to Miss Tang as soon as possible.

At least leave some impression.

Tang Anning said, "I heard there will be a few large natural rose pink diamonds at the auction later. I want to come and take a look."

The illegitimate son He Yingjie smiled gently and said, "So Miss Tang also likes pink diamonds?"

Tang An Ning simply ignored him: "Where's Uncle Hou?"

Hou Yuqiang was unhappy that Tang Anning ignored his son, but he couldn't show anything else on the surface, so he smiled and said, "Two plots of land will be auctioned later."

Tang An Ning said "oh", obviously not wanting to say more.

Hou Yuqiang tactfully took his son away to talk to others.

Luo Baozhu rolled her eyes.

It's really disgusting that he is so eager to help his illegitimate son Qianqiao.

Tang Anning squeezed Luo Baozhu's hand, and the two of them talked to other people for a few more words, and the auction officially began.

As luck would have it, Tang Anning and Luo Baozhu sat in the first row, with only one person between them: Hou Yuqiang.

As for the illegitimate son He Yingjie, the He family is also a relatively top-notch family among the second-tier families in Shanghai, so he was able to sit in the second row, just behind Hou Yuqiang.

Looking at Luo Baozhu sitting in the first row, He Yingjie's eyes dimmed and were full of disgust.

Soon it entered the auction stage.

The first two items were two simple trinkets, each sold for several million.

The third auction item is a double-sided embroidered ornament with a diameter of about 30cm, with a starting price of two million.

Double-sided embroidery is a very popular item, and many enthusiasts here have their eyes lit up at this moment.

"220."

A noble lady spoke.

"240."

A boss with a big belly spoke.

After a few more bids, the price stopped at 340 million.

Tang An Ning thought about it for a moment and realized that the price for making an appointment to buy such a double-sided embroidered ornament on the market would be about the same.

"350."

Tang Anning made an offer.

Someone was not willing to be outdone and raised the price to 360 million. Tang Anning directly offered 400 million and successfully won it.

After two or three lots, a pair of purple gemstone earrings from Van Cleef & Arpels were auctioned.

Tang An Ning picked up the tablet provided by the auction site and carefully looked at the information of the pair of purple gemstone earrings.

It was bought directly for 270 million.

The next item was the rose pink diamond that Tang Anning had been looking forward to.

The pink diamond is about half the size of an adult's fist. It has only been preliminarily polished and has not been cut. It is very good whether you buy it for collection or to make jewelry.

Natural pink diamonds have always been relatively rare, and most of the people present, whether for collection or other reasons, made bids, and the price was soon raised to 700 million.

When a big boss offered 720 million, Tang Anning directly bid 1000 million.

The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and some bosses whispered to each other.

After 30 seconds, no one continued to bid, and the auctioneer began to call out prices.

Someone gritted his teeth and added another 100 million.

Tang Anning raised the price to 1500 million without hesitation.

A collector roughly estimated the value of pink diamonds.

1500 million is almost the highest price, any higher price is not worth it.

So the pink diamond successfully fell into Tang An Ning's hands.
