The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

Luo Huai had been thinking about returning the favor to Kuangye Shen Ge and the others, and when Pei Youyou mentioned the Tibet Board of Directors, she agreed.

The exhibition is usually only for viewing, and the auction is held only once every five years, making it a rare opportunity.

Half of the dowry given by the Pei family has already been sold, and there is sufficient money in the account.

She changed her clothes and went downstairs. Pei Youyou and Xing Yuru were already waiting for her hand in hand. One of them was wearing a sequined dress with a white feather shawl, and she was adorned with all kinds of jewelry. She was a wealthy and luxurious young lady.

She was wearing a modified pink cheongsam with white feathers on the cuffs, her hair was styled in an updo, and she wore teardrop-shaped jade earrings.

In contrast, Luo Huai was dressed more casually.

She wore a white turtleneck knit dress underneath a salt-blue coat, the belt of which was neatly tied at night. On her wrist was a watch given to her by Xing Yanzhao, and she wore white pearls with a hint of pink around her neck and ears.

Xing Yuru was generous with her praise, smiling and exclaiming "Wow!"

The three of them went out together.

Pei Youyou loves supercars just like Pei Yuanzhou. The two-seater Maserati can only carry Xing Yuru, so Luo Huai drives by himself.

Of the five cars the Pei family gave her, she kept a Porsche worth less than a million.

Halfway through the drive, there was a loud bang.

The tire blew out!

Luo Huai opened the car door and got out to check, and found that there was a scratch on the tire that he didn't know when, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

She picked up her phone and called the largest auto repair shop in Ningcheng, explaining the location and leaving her name and contact information.

The customer service representative said they would immediately call the nearest employee to her.

Luo Huai waited and waited, but twenty minutes passed and no one from the repair shop appeared. Instead, he received a call from Xing Yurou.

"Sister-in-law, why aren't you here yet?"

"The tire has blown out, you guys go inside first."

"But there isn't..."

"Alright, alright, if sister-in-law tells us to go in first, then we'll go in first." Pei Youyou interrupted Xing Yurou, leaned closer to her phone and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, send us a message when you're almost there, and we'll come out to meet you."

The phone hangs up.

Luo Huai put away his phone, and five minutes later he heard the sound of a car approaching and stopping behind him.

She looked back.

A pair of long, slender legs stepped off the black G-Class, wearing black boots and cargo pants.

It is Xing Yanzhao.

Xing Yanzhao glanced at her, walked around to the trunk of the car, and took off his coat, casually tying it around his waist, revealing a black vest and tanned skin.

With a gentle lift, he carried the tire towards Luo Huai, a silver wrench in one hand.

He placed the tire next to Luo Huai's car, which had suffered a flat tire, and asked with his eyes down, "How did this happen?"

Luo Huai paused for a moment, shook his head to indicate that he did not know, and then called for help.

"Brother Zhao, you... have a side job?"

Xing Yanzhao had just pulled up his trouser leg and squatted down when he looked up, slightly surprised, "Didn't Lao Wu tell you?"

Who is Lao Wu?

Luo Huai blinked his puzzled eyes.

"Old Wu is my friend, the owner of the auto repair shop. He sent me a message saying your tire had a flat." Xing Yanzhao looked away and started removing the tire. He frowned as he looked at the scratches on the tire.

"Did you crash?"

Their gaze returned to Luo Huai, scrutinizing him from head to toe.

"No," Luo Huai shook his head. "I don't know what happened either."

"It's alright." Xing Yanzhao's brows relaxed again. "Check the dashcam and see what happened."

“Okay.” Luo Huai stood aside and watched him get up and lie down under the car. She tilted her head to check the situation, even though she didn’t understand.

It's better than being awkwardly alone on the side.

Each time he turned the wrench, the muscle lines on the man's arm became particularly prominent.

Luo Huai was somewhat distracted.

Suddenly, she shook her head slightly and asked, "Brother Zhao, you wouldn't have a stake in the car dealership, would you?"

She remembered Zuixian Restaurant.

Brother Shen said that Brother Zhao is another boss.

"No," Xing Yanzhao said. "I don't have that much skill. I don't know much about car repair either. I only learned a little bit from Lao Wu. Lao Wu's memory wasn't very good when he was in school, and he was a complete mess when he first started learning car repair."

Luo Huai noticed that he would start talking whenever he mentioned his friends.

She leaned closer and listened intently.

"Later, he went to that rascal Kuangye and asked him if he had any ways to improve memory. Kuangye told him about the Feynman Learning Technique, which required him to explain what he had learned that day to others. If he could explain it clearly, he could learn it. He would grab us whenever he had free time to explain it to us. After he could do it, he would insist on demonstrating it to us. He only stopped when he took on an apprentice."

Luo Huai laughed as he listened.

Her lips and eyebrows curved like crescent moons, revealing her pearly white teeth.

Xing Yanzhao emerged from under the car and was met with Luo Huai's smiling face. He was momentarily stunned.

The last rays of the setting sun have long since faded, and the city lights are just coming on.

"All changed." Xing Yanzhao casually wiped his clothes on his waist, took out his phone from his pocket and looked at it. "The auction starts at 7:30, there are still 25 minutes left, I have enough time."

Luo Huai stared at his face.

"what happened?"

Luo Huai pointed to the spot on his cheek, "There's some engine oil on this."

"It's nothing." Xing Yanzhao's hands were dirty, but his arms were relatively clean. He raised his arms to wipe them, but then suddenly remembered something and lowered his hands again.

"Can you do me a favor?"

He's here to change his tire, so wiping his face is only natural.

Luo Huai agreed and opened the car door to get some tissues.

Xing Yanzhao had already bent down and lowered his head, ready to go.

Luo Huai raised her hand to wipe his face, saying, "A tissue can only wipe away a little bit; you still need to wash your face."

"Go back and take a shower." Xing Yanzhao stared intently at her face, his burning gaze like fire, making Luo Huai's face flush and feel uncomfortable.

"Brother Zhao, it's done."

Luo Huai withdrew his hand, only to have it suddenly encircled.

My breath hitched.

“Brother Zhao…”

Xing Yanzhao's Adam's apple bobbed, and he slowly released her hand, asking, "Until what time? I'll come pick you up."

"It's not clear yet." Luo Huai lowered her hands, not daring to look the man in the eye.

The phone rang.

Xing Yanzhao took out his phone and replied impatiently, "Coming right away."

Luo Huai suddenly remembered, "Brother Zhao, aren't you going to a drinking party together tonight?"

"Go now." Xing Yanzhao looked at her again. "If you come out and don't see me, go back by yourself. Oh, and here's your card."

"I……"

"Xing Zhengyu's cards are all kept by Pei Youyou. If I don't give you mine, she'll probably team up with others to say sarcastic things again." Xing Yanzhao forced it on, "It's a card from the Xing family, spend it as you please, Mrs. Xing."

When this term comes out of a man's mouth, it carries a roguish air mixed with a touch of tenderness.

Luo Huai was taken aback.

Xing Yanzhao had already strode back to his car and leaned out the window to remind Luo Huai, "We're going to miss it."

“!” Luo Huai immediately got into the car, started the engine, and drove away.

With ten minutes left before the auction, Xing Yuru hadn't received a message from Luo Huai and looked somewhat worried.

"Second sister-in-law, eldest sister-in-law has already called someone to change the tire, why hasn't it arrived yet?"

"Who knows?" Pei Youyou sat upright, smiled, and said indifferently.

Suddenly, someone in the aisle came to report to the person in charge of the auction, saying, "A lady has come in, insisting that she lost her card and is forcing her way in."

Pei Youyou immediately stood up and went over, smiling as she said, "Excuse me, that's Luo Huai, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xing family. I'll go and bring her in right away."

Those holding a Tibet Board of Directors membership card may bring one companion.

She and Xing Yuru each had one.

There were no locust trees before, and there can be none now.

The Xing family has two cards, one in Xing's father's hands and the other in Xing Yurou's hands right now.

"Yu Rou, your sister-in-law is being held up outside. Please sit down, I'll go get her." Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone around to hear.

Almost everyone in the upper-class circles knows Pei Youyou, and everyone knows about the marriage alliance between the Xing and Pei families, so it goes without saying who her sister-in-law is.

The adopted daughter whom the Pei family disliked.

On her wedding day, Young Master Xing disrupted the ceremony.

She was abandoned by Mr. Xing again on the day they got their marriage certificate.

Now, the people from the Tibet Association are blocking the door and insisting on barging in, causing the young masters and ladies to burst into laughter.

Pei Youyou smiled smugly.

Xing Yuru couldn't smile. She got up to go pick up the person and told Pei Youyou to sit down again.

"I'll go."

As soon as Pei Youyou left, the laughter gradually subsided.

Xing Yuru saw one of the rich young masters who had joined in the commotion receive a warning from his parents.

"Stop laughing along with others. It's not even certain whether the person outside is the eldest young mistress of the Xing family. Besides, this Luo Huai is very popular with the old master and old lady of the Xing family."

"Who said that?"

“I told you to spend less time indulging in pleasure and more time on practical matters, but you wouldn’t listen. At the donation ceremony of the Xing Foundation a few days ago, Luo Huai’s name was specifically mentioned. The marriage between Xing and Pei was arranged by the Xing family patriarch and matriarch. The four of them getting married together would not have been possible without the approval of the two elders, which shows that the two elders have approved of Luo Huai as their granddaughter-in-law.”

The young master suddenly realized.

"What about the real Young Master Xing?"

"It's hard to explain."

The auction was about to begin, and the family of three stopped talking.

There was movement behind him.

Xing Yuru thought it was her second sister-in-law welcoming her eldest sister-in-law in, but when she turned around, she realized it wasn't.

Only three minutes left.

There was another noise.

Xing Yuru saw her eldest sister-in-law Luo Huai, who was accompanied by staff from the Tibet Board of Directors, but her second sister-in-law Pei Youyou was nowhere to be seen.

She got up to go over, but a staff member reminded her that the auction was about to begin and that she should not move around unnecessarily, as it would obstruct other people's view.

Xing Yuru had no choice but to sit down.

She watched as Luo Huai was led by staff to the second row.

"The second row?" Xing Yuru looked surprised. Everyone who came to the Tibetan board meeting knew that the first and second rows were not necessarily rich and powerful, but they were definitely distinguished guests of Old Master Fu.

Why is my sister-in-law sitting in the second row?

Where is Second Sister-in-law?

Old Master Fu hates people who are not punctual. The doors of the Zangdong Association will close two minutes before the auction begins, and even if you have a membership card, you can't get in.

Only distinguished guests who can sit in the first or second row are eligible for an exception.

After all, the cards in the hands of the distinguished guests were all personally given out by Old Master Fu.

As soon as Luo Huai sat down, one scrutinizing gaze after another fell upon her. Some people had seen Luo Huai at the wedding and immediately recognized her, saying, "Is that Luo Huai, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xing family? Didn't Miss Pei say that she was kept outside?"

Someone glanced around and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? Where's Miss Pei?"
