Chu Lan frowned. These questions seemed tailor-made for Xu Tian. She recognized several experts at the auction today, but none of them could answer correctly. Xu Tian, ​​on the other hand, was full of confidence. She felt that there must be a connection between them, but she couldn't figure it out for the time being.

"Brother, you're so amazing!" Zhao Jing looked at him with admiration.

Xu Tian smiled guiltily; he couldn't very well say that this was what his mother had brought out.

The host gestured for everyone to be quiet and then asked the third question.

"May I ask, who was the first owner of this 'White Moonlight'?"

Xu Tian immediately knew the answer.

When this jadeite first came out, my dad spent a fortune to buy it for my mom, so this question is practically a freebie!

Looking around, however, everyone remained deep in thought. If he were to stand up and give the answer now, it would be too obvious.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian decided to wait and see.

"This is a really difficult question. Have you figured it out yet?"

Zhao Jing looked melancholy, while Xu Tian pretended to be embarrassed and remained silent.

Zhang Qian stared intently at Xu Tian, ​​her mind racing with thoughts.

"You've already answered two correctly, you absolutely must figure out the last one!"

"I've seen everything you've done for me, and even if things don't turn out as I hoped, I'll never blame you!"

Chen Feng frowned. He no longer cared who the jade flower would end up with, as long as it wasn't Xu Tian!

Under the expectant gaze of the host, four or five people had already answered incorrectly. Xu Tian saw that it was time and raised his hand.

"Please answer," the host said with a smile.

"The first holder is Jiang Wanyi!"

The host smiled slightly, "Congratulations, you answered correctly. So, the winner of this White Moonlight Jadeite today has been decided, and that is Xu Tian. Mr. Xu, please come to the stage!"

Zhao Jing's mouth gaped open into an "O" shape, big enough to fit an egg, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.

Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes flashing with a mixture of surprise and admiration.

That's great! Xu Tian did it!

I thought Xu Tianzhen had given up on me, but I never expected that she would put in so much effort behind my back!

Chen Feng's face instantly darkened, his hands clenched into fists as if he wanted to crush the resentment and anger in his heart. Especially when he saw Zhang Qian beside him making no attempt to hide her love for Xu Tian, ​​his hatred reached its peak.

"Tomorrow is our engagement day. Don't you think this is going a bit too far?"

Zhang Qian was taken aback, realizing that her reaction had gone too far, and quickly composed herself.

After the auction ended, Xu Tian got what he wanted.

As the event ended, Zhao Jing was so excited she almost jumped for joy.

"Brother, you've been hiding your true abilities! You were lying to me when you told me you didn't know anything about jade!"

Xu Tian smiled helplessly, "A little trick, a little trick..."

Zhang Qian came to Xu Tian's side alone. Chen Feng, who had been with him, was furious and left her behind.

Zhang Qian said with tears in her eyes, "Xu Tian, ​​you've touched me so much..."

Xu Tian and Zhao Jing looked at each other in bewilderment.

Zhang Qian added, "I'll wait for you tomorrow."

After saying that, Zhang Qian left.

Zhao Jing said incredulously, "Brother, is your ex-wife still a dream woman? Does she really think everything you did today was for her?"

Xu Tiancai didn't care about anything else; he was already very happy to have gotten what Chu Lan wanted.

Chu Lan had already left when Xu Tian went on stage. Xu's mother wanted it, and Xu Tian got it, so the matter was considered settled.

"Did you notice? Our idol came today too. She must have come because she likes him, am I right?"

Zhao Jing was eager to take credit.

Xu Tian smiled broadly, "Indeed, you understand women's minds best."

Zhao Jing feigned a coquettish tone and said, "What's the use of understanding a woman's mind? Don't you understand who I most want to understand?"

Xu Tian said awkwardly, "Can you please be more mindful of the occasion? You're always flirting like that, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Zhao Jing snorted, "Anyone who dares to look at me will have their eyes gouged out!"

"Seriously, when are you planning to go home?" Xu Tian asked earnestly.

Zhao Jing's tone was slightly somber, "That depends on when they come begging to me!"

Tomorrow is Chu Lan's birthday banquet, and she doesn't believe Zhao Pengfei can keep his composure!

Zhao family.

Chu Lan had just left the auction house when he announced the guests invited to his birthday banquet tomorrow on social media. But that wasn't the key point. The key point was that the location had changed, and the Zhao family, a well-known enterprise in Jiangcheng, was not on the invitation list.

At this moment, Zhao Pengfei was at home answering phone calls so many times that his head was about to explode.

The calls all came in one after another, asking how they had offended Chu Lan. Some of the companies that were cooperating with him even decided not to renew their long-term contracts after hearing the rumors.

Seeing Zhao Pengfei so flustered, Zhao Yazhi realized that she had made a mistake.

"You...call your sister and tell her to come back right now!"

Zhao Pengfei glared angrily at Zhao Lei, who in turn was looking at Zhao Yazhi.

Zhao Yazhi sighed, "A true man can bend and stretch. Why don't you give your sister a call?"

Upon hearing Zhao Yazhi change her tune, Zhao Pengfei paused for a second, then complained somewhat.

"Mom, if you had figured it out earlier, none of this would have happened!"

Zhao Yazhi snorted coldly, "I just can't stand those mother and daughter causing trouble at home! If they're willing to come back and apologize to me properly this time, then this matter will be over."

After hearing this, Zhao Lei had no choice but to bite the bullet and dial Zhao Jing's number, but it was hung up after only one ring.

"See what I told you! You're making a big deal out of nothing, you're really spoiled!" Zhao Yazhi said with dissatisfaction.

Zhao Pengfei was at his wits' end. "The younger one won't answer the phone, and the older one won't answer either. What am I supposed to do? If all else fails, I'll drive them back. You two are too proud to back down, so I'll go!"

As he spoke, Zhao Pengfei asked the housekeeper to go get the car, but Zhao Yazhi quickly stopped him.

"You're the head of the household, how can you bow down to them? They'll become unruly in the future!"

Zhao Pengfei was both helpless and frustrated. "Then tell me, what do we do now?"

Zhao Yazhi gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes, "Fine, let this old man go there and see what they really want!"

"I'm the elder, after all. I don't believe they'll dare to throw a tantrum and not come home if I go."

Zhao Pengfei sighed when he saw her sharp tongue.

"Never mind, Mom, you're the elder, let Leilei go instead."

Zhao Lei's face darkened instantly. When did Zhao Jing become someone he was supposed to apologize to? Before he could even speak, Zhao Yazhi spoke up.

"No way! Leilei is the eldest son and grandson of the Zhao family, with a very high status. How can he stoop to apologize to them? Let me go!"

Without saying a word, Zhao Yazhi told the housekeeper to drive the car, while she changed into a set of elegant and luxurious clothes. Even if she was going to ask someone for help, she couldn't lose her composure!
