Bold and passionate love: Acting coquettishly in Mr. Huo's arms

"Let us congratulate Mr. Gu!"

The host's smile widened as he excitedly said, "Congratulations, Mr. Gu, for successfully winning this set of gold jewelry for eight million! Congratulations! Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your contribution to our charity auction!"

“Pa pa pa!”

There was thunderous applause in the venue.

Whether the applause was genuine thanks to Gu Zhao for his contribution to charity, or because they were shocked that he actually spent eight million to buy gold jewelry worth less than one hundred thousand, is really a matter of opinion.

The brain that had been heating up when he was desperately bidding just now gradually cooled down. Hearing the congratulations from the host on the stage, Gu Zhao suddenly raised his head.

How much did he just say?

Eight million?

Regret spread in his heart.

That’s eight million!

He is now short of money because what he did before did not satisfy Mr. Gu, resulting in a significant reduction in the amount of money he can receive every month.

Most of the money he had was accumulated from business and investments in previous years. For ordinary people, it might be enough to live a worry-free life, but for his ambition, it was a drop in the bucket.

He never simply wanted to live a life of ease and comfort; he wanted to reach a higher position and have everyone look up to him.

But now, his limited money was split out into another eight million, to buy a bunch of useless gold jewelry?!

The matter had become an established fact, but his brows were filled with viciousness, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes as he looked at Ruan Xingchen's back.

"Congratulations, Second Young Master Gu."

Noticing the coldness in his eyes, Ruan Xingchen's smile grew even wider.

She tilted her head, and her thick black hair, like seaweed, fell from her shoulders.

She smiled widely, and her clear eyes showed undisguised mockery: "Second Young Master Gu is truly generous, donating eight million directly to charity. I admire you."

She even ignored the existence of the gold jewelry.

After all, when they bought this gold jewelry, it only cost a little over 80,000 yuan.

The price has increased a hundred times, no one would believe it if it wasn't charity.

Gu Zhao was already regretting his decision, and when he heard her sarcasm, his eyes became even colder.

"This gentleman is indeed generous."

Feng Jiayi next to him couldn't help but smile.

With Gu Zhao spending eight million on gold jewelry as a comparison, it didn't seem shameful for her to spend two and a half million on a banner.

So she looked at Gu Zhao with a much gentler look in her eyes, and said with a smile: "You and Han Xing must be very good friends, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be so generous and give so much face."

She had no idea that she was stabbing Gu Zhao in the heart, and she sighed sincerely: "Han Xing, your friend is really loyal and kind-hearted, amazing."

Ruan Xingchen almost laughed out loud on the spot.

Gu Zhao bit his cheeks hard, trying to control his facial muscles so that his expression would not become too distorted.

"you flatter me."

He practically squeezed these words out from between his teeth, saying sinisterly, "But Ms. Ruan and I are not really friends. I can't reach her."

It would be strange if he were friends with Ruan Xingchen!

He wished he could strangle this woman to death, wished this woman had never appeared in this world.

If it weren't for her, how could he have fallen into his current situation?

If it weren't for her, he would have become the president of Gu Corporation long ago.

Thinking of this, Gu Zhao's face became even uglier. He glanced at Huo Yan and sneered, "It's just jewelry after all. It's really magnanimous of Mr. Huo to put Ms. Ruan's jewelry in my hands."

He gave the two of them a deliberately provocative look.

Jewelry is something private to girls.

Even though Ruan Xingchen had never worn this set of jewelry, she donated it and it nominally belonged to her.

Is Huo Yan really so generous that she doesn't feel disgusted at all when putting something with her mark in the hands of a young man?

"Second Young Master Gu is overthinking it."

The tall and straight man sat on the chair, turning the ordinary chair into a throne-like one.

His stern face was calm, his dark eyes silent as he said, "This set of gold jewelry was donated in my name."

He raised his thin lips, revealing a somewhat mocking and amusing expression, and said in a calm voice: "I haven't thanked Second Young Master Gu for giving me this face yet."

Gu Zhao:?

what?

He couldn't believe it, and was even more unwilling to believe that he spent eight million to buy this little bit of gold, but he couldn't even disgust these two people.

He couldn't help but blurt out angrily: "I don't believe it!"

"If you don't believe me, Young Master Gu can ask the staff for help later!"

The smile on Ruan Xingchen's lips became even more pronounced.

She crossed her legs, revealing a delicate ankle under her long dress.

Elbows on knees, chin supported.

The whole person looks like a blooming flower in the world, and every frown and smile is elegant and calm.

Her tone was clear and slow, and she said slowly with a smile: "Mr. Huo and I participated in the program together, but when we donated the auction items, we donated them separately. I want to donate the silk banner, and the gold jewelry belongs to Mr. Huo."

She smiled faintly: "There's nothing we can do. We have so little money. Mr. Huo can only choose this set of gold jewelry that looks a bit tacky."
