Zhou Li was very scared. She didn't know when Huang Yansheng would take action.

When she was still in the Huang family, she didn't dare to contact the Xiao family at all, for fear that Huang Yansheng would find out something.

But now that she has left the Xiao family, she has become much bolder, and the invisible taboo in her body seems to have disappeared, so she dare not rest for a day, and only wants to hand over the things in her hands to the Xiao family as soon as possible.

She would no longer care about what happened to Huang Yansheng, but she hoped that the Xiao family would let her son go because of the clues she provided.

Yuedutai is especially lively at night. Standing outside and looking up at this Chinese-style high-rise building, it is magnificent and gives people a very grand feeling.

There was probably an auction going on in the evening, so there were so many people.

Afraid that she would be seen by someone she knew if she went out now, she gave the driver two hundred yuan and asked him to find a place nearby to wait for about an hour.

During this time, she sat in the car and watched until there were fewer people outside the Yuedutai gate. Then she put on her hat and walked over with her head down.

She didn't know about other places, but she knew that Yuedutai belonged to the Xiao family and was the place she could get closest to.

When she reached the door, the waiter outside stopped her.

"Hello, please show me your invitation."

This is the case for every auction held by Yuedutai. They usually send invitations to the guests on the invitation list. If you don’t receive an invitation, it means that you are not within the scope of their designated customers.

To put it simply, no one can enter without an invitation.

Zhou Li didn't have an invitation. She pulled her hat and whispered with her face tilted to the side, "I'm not here for the auction. I want to see your person in charge. I have something very important to tell him."

The waiter had heard this many times and didn't take it to heart. Most of the people came with their own belongings and asked if they could be photographed. Even their clothes were the same, wrapped up tightly.

So he treated the woman in front of him as one of those people, speaking politely.

"If there are items that need to be appraised, please go to Ruyi Hall."

Zhou Li knew that he had misunderstood. She shook her head and her voice became a little tighter. Thinking that she was already standing at the door of Yuedutai, she introduced herself directly.

After introducing herself, she said seriously, "This is really an important matter. Please pass the message up there and say it's related to Miss Xiao."

Hearing this, the waiter's brows furrowed slightly.

The people above have explained that everything related to the young lady is a big deal.

Whether true or false, it should be taken seriously.

He talked to his colleagues, took Zhou Li in through the side door, placed her in a meeting room, and then hurried to find the nearest person in charge.

At this time, Qin Tianxing was in his office, and the densely packed accounts on the computer made him dizzy.

He sighed and decided that paper was more user-friendly for a middle-aged or elderly person like him.

There was an auction going on downstairs, so he had to work overtime tonight.

This is actually nothing. What he is worried about now is that the KPI set by the head of the family this year has been completed. If today's auction is also counted, it will be an over-achievement.

There are still more than two months until the Chinese New Year, and adding the cash flow of those two months, you can tell without any estimation that it has far exceeded the target set by the head of the family.

This year's excess is so large, the owner will set a higher target for him next year, which will be very stressful.

So he was struggling. He could either move the auction before the New Year to after the New Year, but he had to find a legitimate reason. If he couldn't convince the owner of the house, he would be scolded.

Qin Tianxing was so worried that he scratched his head and took out his cell phone to discuss it with Xia Zhi, who was his best friend.

But then he thought about it, the entertainment company run by Xia Zhi made the owner lose money every year, its performance was always at the bottom, and it was criticized the most, so his opinions were of no reference value at all.

Alas, earning too much is also worrying! Xia Zhi may never experience his kind of troubles in this lifetime.

Just as he was planning how to coax the head of the family, the phone on the desk rang.

After Qin Tianxing answered the phone, he put it to his ear and heard the voice of his subordinate.

"Boss, there's something I need you to do."

Qin Tianxing put down the phone, turned off the computer, locked his office door, went downstairs and found the room number his subordinate had just mentioned.

Ten minutes later, he walked out of the reception room with a grim expression on his face, and his steps were much weaker, as if he had heard something terrible.

He called Lixia and asked her to drive quickly and go to the Xiao family in person.

It was past seven o'clock and the traffic was very congested. It was almost eight o'clock when we arrived.

Qin Tianxing didn't dare to delay at all, and hurried to find Xiao Qingdai with his mobile phone.

Along the way, he kept paying attention to his surroundings, but he didn't see the familiar little round ball rolling in the yard.

I thought he would be next to the head of the family, but I didn't see him after I went in.

He was even more frightened.

The fact that this matter could scare such a seasoned person like this shows that it is really serious.

Lixia waited outside. Half an hour later, the door of the room opened and Qin Tianxing and Shuangjiang walked out.

"What did the parents say, Miss?"

She hurried over and whispered in Qin Tianxing's ear.

"The head of the family asked us to go back first. Miss is fine. She went to someone else's house with the head of the Fu family this afternoon and drank a lot of tea. She was so energetic that she couldn't sleep at night, so she went out to play with others."

Lixia breathed a sigh of relief.

It's so scary. I just heard the news and couldn't see the lady when I came. I almost thought...
