Su Yuan coughed lightly and said, "Boss He, you love money too. Don't let yourself get into trouble."

Her voice was not loud, but it hit the point directly, as if she wanted to remind the other person not to judge others too harshly.

These words almost made He Jingchen explode with anger.

His face turned red, almost bursting, and he glared at Su Yuan angrily.

"No, I never get involved in their shameful activities!"

He said this almost through gritted teeth, his tone full of determination and confidence.

Su Yuan quickly looked to Yang Sheng for help.

She hoped that Yang Sheng could help ease the situation at this critical moment and not make the scene too awkward.

Yang Sheng nodded, proving that what He Jingchen said was true.

He was obviously aware of the matter and was willing to guarantee He Jingchen.

Su Yuan immediately apologized to He Jingchen, "It's all my fault. Boss He, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time!"

Her attitude was sincere and her tone was full of apology.

After hearing the apology, He Jingchen's anger subsided a little.

He sighed deeply, and his expression gradually returned to calm.

He continued, "The items they sent for appraisal were initially genuine, but once the auction was over, they started selling them mixed with the real stuff. To confuse people, they even planted their own agents in the auction room to pose as buyers and drive up the prices, making items that weren't worth much seem incredibly expensive. Otherwise, why do you think they're being so secretive about the animal masks?"

After hearing this, Su Yuan felt even more upset.

She said sullenly, "Does that mean we can never get back those antiques that have gone abroad?"

He Jingchen shrugged helplessly, "That's about right. Anyway, it's really hard to get it back. I suspect they first found a buyer willing to pay a high price, and then switched it."

"There's really nothing we can do. Our current strength abroad is far inferior to theirs. After all, they have people backing them."

"The Yu family?"

He Jingchen nodded in agreement.

Su Yuan silently compared the information from both sides in his mind, and then he felt that it was slightly more credible.

"So is there really no way now? Even if we can just stop one or two things, it would be fine."

"At the moment, it seems that we can only hope that Young Master Yu will come back soon to take care of this matter."

He Jingchen sighed.

Su Yuan was a little helpless, "Could you please not bring up this useless topic."

He Jingchen changed the topic and returned to talking about the bow.

"To be honest, this is the first time I've seen such a treasure. It really left a deep impression on me and is unforgettable."

"Is he really that amazing?"

Su Yuan blurted out, "Do they have any similar auctions next month?"

He Jingchen knew what she was planning and directly exposed her thoughts: "Just give up on this idea. Do you think they will let you succeed so easily? What if you anger them and it goes against you?"

Su Yuan didn't care. "What's there to be afraid of? I'm barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. The worst case scenario is just this."

He Jingchen was amused by her boldness and couldn't help but applaud her.

"Amazing! You're really brave! You're not even afraid of this."

He then looked at Yang Sheng and asked seriously, "Do you want to change your job? If you change now, if something happens to Su Yuan in the future, you won't be implicated too much."

As soon as the words fell, the room became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

In an instant, Su Yuan and Yang Sheng both felt a particularly speechless emotion.

It was as if the atmosphere in the air suddenly became oppressive. The two looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

"Don't even think about it. Boss He has many ways to deal with this. He'll always find a bodyguard that suits him!"

As he said this, Su Yuan tightly held the rewrapped bow and arrow in his hand, looking ahead with a firm gaze, ready to leave this place without stopping.

She seemed determined to do something.

Almost at the same time, Yang Sheng followed Su Yuan out of the door, his face full of complicated and helpless expressions.

The figures of the two gradually disappeared in the light outside the door, leaving behind a faint atmosphere of regret.

He Jingchen muttered to himself for a moment, then spread out his hands helplessly, indicating that he had decided to give up his previous idea.

This sudden change made him seem a little confused.

The unidentified person lurking in the shadows stared at Su Yuan's departing back, and noticed that she was holding something that seemed very crucial in her hand. Suddenly, a stronger sense of unwillingness rose in his heart.

That emotion surged in his heart like a raging wave and could not calm down for a long time.

Guo Yingying glared hatefully at Su Yuan's figure as she walked away, with flames of resentment burning in her eyes.

If she wasn't worried about others discovering her intentions, Guo Yingying would have wanted to follow Su Yuan immediately and stick to her to prevent her from leaving her sight easily, secretly planning her next move in her mind.

After walking out of the door, a cool breeze blew towards him. However, at this moment, Su Yuan felt goosebumps all over his body, and a vague feeling of unease surged in his heart.

She gently rubbed her arm, which was covered with small granules, and whispered to her companion beside her, "Why do I suddenly feel anxious?"

Hearing this, Yang Sheng, who was walking beside him, replied calmly: "You are holding such a valuable item in your hand right now, how can you be completely at ease?"

Although his tone was steady, one could tell that he was quite serious about the matter.

"Of course it's not because of this reason."

Su Yuan curled her lips in dissatisfaction. "I've handled funding contracts worth up to 100 million before, and I wasn't this nervous back then."

After hearing her words, Yang Sheng nodded casually to show his understanding.

"In that case, do whatever you want."

Just as the two were talking about their previous collaborative project, Su Yuan suddenly had a new idea in his mind.

"How is the preparation for the factory project we just mentioned going at this stage?"

While they were talking, Yang Sheng in the driver's seat skillfully manipulated the steering wheel and turned the car into a more remote road.

"Things are going well so far. Do you want me to take you to the site for an inspection?"

Hearing this, Su Yuan immediately showed great interest, "Okay, is it far from here?"

Based on my usual physical condition, this distance may not be too far for ordinary people.

However, considering that the actual journey not only required climbing a mountain but also walking a long distance, Yang Sheng's expression became hesitant.

"Personally, I think it's fine, but it depends on your physical strength and whether you can adapt to the intensity of the journey."

Su Yuan immediately retreated upon hearing this, her expression slightly changed, "Then send me home first and prepare the equipment first."

Before she finished her words, she subconsciously took a step back, fearing that Yang Sheng would raise objections.
