After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

This guy couldn't resist!

Zhao Wuyai and Chen Feng were overjoyed and almost cheered out loud.

There's no doubt this is going to be interesting.

Ye Bai has not only been ripped off by them and made a fool of, but more importantly, this poor guy actually has the money.

That's not 400,000, it's 4 million!

That's a fortune that an ordinary person could never earn in a lifetime!

Although Ye Bai was known as the son-in-law of the Qin family and the adopted son of the Ye family, in Zhao Wuyai's eyes, he was no different from an ordinary person.

It can be stronger, but definitely only to a limited extent.

Especially since this guy has become rich, he likes to show off, buying cars and other things. He must be broke now.

Unless he borrows money from Qin Wanqing, he simply cannot afford this item at auction.

But if that were the case, Ye Bai's reputation as a good-for-nothing who lives off a woman would be firmly established, making him a laughing stock among the wealthy families of Jingzhou!

Other members of wealthy families clearly realized this as well, and their expressions began to change.

Those who had a good relationship with Ye Bai, such as Zheng Wushuang, Li Fengyun, Zhu Daji, and Han Mengmeng, all looked rather grim at this moment.

Han Mengmeng, in particular, even wanted to stand up and speak up for Ye Bai, but was stopped by a stern look from her grandfather, Han Anguo.

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry, but the starting bid for today's auction is 100,000..."

Surprisingly, the host spoke first, reminding Ye Bai that his price increase was against the rules.

"...Okay, then...how about four million one hundred thousand..."

Ye Bai's face seemed to turn pale, and after saying those words, he gave the impression that he had used up all his strength.

Then, Ye Bai suddenly turned his head, gritted his teeth, and shouted at Zhao Wuyai, "Now it's your turn! Didn't you say you'd pay ten times more?"

"Does Ye Bai really think I'm stupid? Spending forty million on junk? Even if we increase it tenfold, that's only if we each place an offer. I've already made an offer, so why bother increasing it again! This junk is yours! Hahahaha..."

Zhao Wuyai burst into loud laughter, feeling utterly relieved.

"You...you broke your promise!"

Ye Bai seemed so angry that his face turned green, and his finger pointing at Zhao Wuyai trembled uncontrollably.

"Heh, say whatever you want, anyway, this thing is yours! Also, don't forget your own promises before, using the Qin family's money is just slapping yourself in the face!"

Zhao Wuyai became increasingly gloating.

"...Four million one hundred thousand, third time, sold!"

At this point, the announcer had already placed the gavel, and there was no possibility of changing the result.

There has never been a case of someone reneging on a bid at such a charity auction.

Nobody can afford to lose face like that.

Just as Zhao Wuyai and Chen Feng were about to enjoy Ye Bai's impoverished and embarrassed state, a clear voice suddenly rang out in the arena.

"Host, I'll cover the four million one hundred thousand; consider it a loan to Ye Bai!"

However, it was Han Mengmeng, the little princess of the Han family, who stood up and looked at the host.

She knew Ye Bai just as well as Qin Wanqing, and naturally knew about his extravagant spending habits.

Especially since he just bought a car, it's no wonder he doesn't have any money on hand.

Moreover, Zhao Wuyai was forcing her not to use the Qin family's money, so she naturally had to help out of this predicament.

Is this okay?

Seeing this, many people were dumbfounded, and Zhao Wuyai and Chen Feng were so angry that they almost jumped up.

Undoubtedly, this move was completely unexpected for both of them.

What's even more intriguing is that Han Anguo showed no reaction whatsoever to his granddaughter's antics, remaining asleep with his eyes closed...

However, Zhao Yanwang seemed to have thought of something, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.

"Mr. Ye..."

The host clearly hadn't experienced this situation before and could only look at Ye Bai.

"Thank you, Mengmeng."

Ye Bai didn't act coy. Borrowing money wasn't shameful; he wasn't the kind of deadbeat who wouldn't pay back his debts.

The most important thing now is to get that Ganoderma lucidum on the stage as soon as possible!

……

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't realize you held such a heavy place in that little vixen's heart, Ye Bai!"

"Four million! She pulled it out without even blinking! Judging from her attitude, she doesn't intend to make you pay it back. She really considers you her man!"

"No wonder you didn't use my money. Looks like you two are the real family, and I'm the outsider?"

Qin Wanqing's pretty face was frosty as she glared at Ye Bai through gritted teeth, her beautiful eyes almost spitting fire.

Even Shen Lu, who had a small brain, could smell a strong sour smell. Her young lady was obviously jealous!

So the young girl quickly moved to the side, deciding to keep a distance from her son-in-law, otherwise she might easily get blood splattered on herself.

"Shh, don't say a word, we're really going to strike it rich this time!"

Ye Bai stared at the Ganoderma lucidum in the small wooden box in his hand, turning it over and over several times. He even tasted a little powder in his mouth. His eyes grew brighter and brighter, and he was so excited that he almost howled like a wolf.

"Could this Ganoderma lucidum be a good thing?"

Qin Wanqing finally realized something was wrong; it was the first time she had ever seen Ye Bai so excited.

Even when he won the bar worth hundreds of millions from Zhao Wuyai last time, he didn't react much. He's acting like he's having an epileptic seizure now!

"It's more than just a good thing, it's an absolute treasure!"

Ye Bai took a deep breath and said with a beaming smile.

"...It's just a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, right? Even if it's rare, it shouldn't be that precious, should it?"

Qin Wanqing became increasingly puzzled, her curiosity piqued by Ye Bai, to the point that she forgot she was still in a state of jealousy and rage.

"Hehe, this is not some hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, it's just that you mortals can't tell the difference."

Ye Bai sneered, and his arrogant demeanor once again stirred up Qin Wanqing's urge to bite him.

"Speak like a normal person!"

Qin Wanqing reached out her delicate hand and pinched Ye Bai's waist hard.

"hiss……"

Ye Bai suddenly opened his eyes wide, gasped, and stopped being smug, quickly starting to speak.

"This is the legendary nine-headed Ganoderma lucidum, far more precious than any hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum! You remember the life-saving pill I gave Mi Zizhen, right? One of its main ingredients was this..."

Qin Wanqing asked with some doubt, "Are you sure? I don't see any nine heads."

Ye Bai chuckled, "This is just a single leaf from one of the nine-headed Ganoderma lucidum, not complete, but its medicinal properties are still intact! So we've gotten a great deal this time! If someone knew its value, they wouldn't be able to buy it for four million, let alone forty million or even four hundred million!"

At that moment, he even had an urge to hug and kiss the eldest son of the Zhao family.

If it weren't for the other party being there, he probably wouldn't have been able to get his hands on this item so easily!

At the time, everyone's attention was focused on his struggle with Zhao Wuyai, and no one paid attention to this item being auctioned.

Otherwise, among this group of powerful and influential figures from Jingzhou, there might be some who recognize its value, and the difficulty for him to bid on it would be unimaginable!

Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to put on such a show back then.

Fortunately, with Zhao Wuyai's help, he successfully obtained this treasure.

"...This piece of junk is worth so much?"

Qin Wanqing's beautiful eyes widened, and she couldn't help but gasp.

……

"Young Master Zhao, look at Ye Bai and Qin Wanqing laughing and joking over there. Could it be that the Ganoderma lucidum is some kind of valuable item, and this good-for-nothing got a bargain?"

Chen Feng noticed Ye Bai's situation at this moment. Although he couldn't hear what Ye Bai was saying, his happy and excited expression was clearly not fake.

This made his heart skip a beat, and he quickly reminded Zhao Wuyai...
