The next morning, sunlight shone through the screen window, illuminating the floor inside the house and refracting spots of light.

Yun Chen opened his eyes, stretched, felt the cool air, and his mood became much better.

Turning around, I saw Zhao Xiruo with her eyes closed, her cheeks flushed, and her long eyelashes like small fans, casting a faint shadow on her fair face.

He smiled and couldn't help but lean over and kiss her forehead.

Zhao Xiruo felt a moist and gentle touch on her forehead, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

When she saw the handsome face in front of her, she couldn't help but scream: "Ah!!"

"What's your name? It's just a kiss. Is that a big deal?" Yun Chen chuckled and looked at her with raised eyebrows.

Zhao Xiruo's pretty face flushed red, and she raised her finger to point at Yun Chen. After a long while, she angrily scolded him, "You bastard, you took advantage of me while I was sleeping."

"Is this called taking advantage? Then did you secretly kiss me last night count as taking advantage of me?" Yun Chen retorted.

"Who occupies..." Hearing this, Zhao Xiruo was about to refute, but suddenly realized: "You didn't sleep last night?"

"I fell asleep, but... I was woken up by your kiss." Yun Chen shrugged.

Hearing this, Zhao Xiruo's face flushed and he stammered, "You... bastard!"

"How am I an asshole? You should provide evidence when you speak."

"You're obviously awake, why are you pretending to be asleep?" Zhao Xiruo was almost crying with anger.

Last night she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, just looking at Yun Chen. As she looked at him, she couldn't help herself and couldn't help but kiss him secretly.

I didn’t expect that this bastard was pretending to be asleep?

This is really embarrassing.

"I pretended to be asleep because I was afraid of scaring you. I didn't expect you to secretly..."

"Just shut up and forget about it."

Before Yun Chen could finish, Zhao Xiruo interrupted him immediately.

Seeing her shy look, Yun Chen smiled and said, "Okay, we're even now. I'll kiss you secretly too."

"You still said..."

Zhao Xiruo grumbled coquettishly, her face becoming even redder, but a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.

At this moment, Yun Chen's cell phone suddenly rang.

He picked up his phone and took a look at it, his brows raised.

"Good morning, Aunt Qin!"

"It's getting late. Are you up yet? The auction is at 10 a.m. I'll pick you up." Qin Yuelan's voice rang out.

Yun Chen glanced at Zhao Xiruo, whose face was gloomy, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "No need. Just tell me the address and I'll go there myself later."

"Okay, remember to come early and bring your items. The organizer needs to estimate their value in advance."

Qin Yuelan gave a few instructions and then hung up the phone.

Zhao Xiruo looked at Yun Chen with a smile: "Oh, Aunt Qin is really good to you. She called so early and even came to pick you up in person."

"Don't you want to go with me? Hurry up and get up and come with me."

Yun Chen ignored her teasing and got up from the bed to wash up.

Zhao Xiruo also hurriedly got up from the bed and followed him.

After washing up and having breakfast, the two left home and drove to their destination.

"This auction was held by the Longteng Group. Here are the items for the auction, as well as some information about the Longteng Group."

In the car, Zhao Xiruo handed a piece of information to Yun Chen.

She knew that Yun Chen was going to attend the auction; she had someone find out last night.

Yun Chen reached out to take it, feeling a little touched: "Wife, you are so good to me."

"cut!"

Zhao Xiruo curled her lips and said disdainfully, "I'm afraid that you'll be laughed at since you just came down the mountain and don't know anything. After all, you're nominally my man now, Zhao Xiruo. If you're embarrassed, I'll be embarrassed too."

Yun Chen chuckled and leaned close to her ear: "Not only in name, but also in reality."

After saying that, before Zhao Xiruo could get angry, he picked up the information and began to read it carefully.

Zhao Xiruo's pretty face turned red, and she stepped hard on the instep of his foot, causing Yun Chen to grimace in pain.

"Don't think I don't know what Qin Yuelan is thinking? I warn you...while your engagement with me lasts, you'd better be honest with me."

"Don't worry, apart from my wife, I won't even look at other women."

Yun Chen pretended to be affectionate.

"Really? I saw you were watching it very enthusiastically yesterday." Zhao Xiruo looked amused.

"No, absolutely not, you must have seen it wrong..."

……

As they were talking, the car had already arrived at the auction house.

The two got out of the car and saw Qin Yuelan standing at the door.

She was wearing a black professional suit today, with her hair tied up high, looking exquisite and dignified.

Beside her, Qin Shuang was wearing a purple long dress, looking noble, elegant and extremely beautiful.

"Brother Yun, you're here."

Seeing Yun Chen, Qin Shuang ran over quickly with a look of joy on his face.

But when he saw Zhao Xiruo beside Yun Chen, he couldn't help but stop.

"Miss Zhao, you're here too."

Qin Shuang said with a fake smile.

Zhao Xiruo snorted coldly and ignored him.

Yun Chen smiled and said, "You look much better now. Remember to take your medicine on time. I'll give you acupuncture when I have time."

Qin Shuang's beautiful eyes were like crystal, sparkling with starlight: "Okay, thank you Brother Yun."

Zhao Xiruo couldn't help but grit her teeth as she looked at the scene in front of her.

"Come in first. I'll introduce you to the person in charge of the auction house and give her the item for appraisal."

Qin Yuelan also came over at this time and said with a smile.

Yun Chen nodded, and the four of them walked inside.

Just as he reached the door, several figures appeared and blocked his way.

"It's you? Why are you here?"

Yun Yiyi wore a fiery red off-shoulder dress with halter straps, and the scenery at her chest was vaguely visible, which made people think a lot.

Behind her, everyone in the Yun family was also dressed in their best attire, but their faces were all extremely ugly at this moment.

"You can come, but I can't? Is this auction hosted by your family?"

Yun Chen sneered and retorted without any hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yiyi's expression instantly darkened to the extreme. She gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, "This auction is being held by the Longteng Group. Do you know the Longteng Group? It's a major financial group in Daxia that can rival the four major families."

"The auction they hold is of such high standard that it's not something someone like you can just casually attend."

"Oh? Then who can participate?" Yun Chen raised his eyebrows.

Yun Yiyi sneered, "Those who can come and participate are at least people with a net worth of over 100 million, and this is just the threshold."

"Really? Then I should be fine. After all... Yun's shares are worth hundreds of millions, right?"

Yun Chen smiled coldly, and after he finished speaking, he didn't even look at the others and walked straight in.

"you……"

Looking at Yun Chen's arrogant look, Yun Yiyi was shaking with anger.

Everyone in the Yun family was even more furious, especially Yun Xiu, who looked at Yun Chen's back with resentment.

For him, the Yun family shares were a great shame and humiliation.

"Don't be impulsive. Don't delay today's important event. Let him run wild for two days... When this is over, I'll make him pay back everything he put in with interest."

Luo Xing comforted Yun Yiyi and looked at Yun Chen's departing back, a cold gleam in his eyes.
