The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Li Zhanting didn't mind helping Elsa, after all, they had a good relationship in college, and money had never been a problem for him. However, he was bothered by Elsa's close proximity to him. He subconsciously avoided her physical support and then gestured to the host to raise the price: "Sixty million US dollars."

The host had memorized the list of guests in advance, and there were very few Asian faces at the banquet. Li Zhanting was quickly recognized by the host. "Okay, Mr. Li, sixty million per time!"

When Elsa saw that Li Zhanting had added ten million US dollars to the price without hesitation to buy back her mother's beloved item, she was so moved that she almost cried. "Thank you, Zhan, thank you so much for helping me. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to pay you back."

When she first reunited with Li Zhanting, she noticed that he barely paid any attention to her. She thought that after five years apart, their relationship had grown distant. However, she didn't forget that this man had always been a man of few words. It wasn't that he didn't want to talk to her; he just hadn't found a suitable reason.

In this way, she would have a legitimate reason to go see him.

"Forget about paying back the money. The item will be delivered soon, so keep it safe." Li Zhanting thought that he was going to donate to charity anyway, and helping Elsa bid on the necklace was just a side thing, so there was no need to put so much pressure on her.

Anna and Marry were furious when they saw Li Zhanting spend 60 million on Elsa without batting an eye and not have to pay it back. Their good plan had been ruined by this Eastern man, and they were really unwilling to accept it.

Just as the host was announcing Li Zhanting's bid for the second time, a dark-skinned, obese man suddenly raised his hand, "I'll give you seventy million US dollars!"

The host suddenly became excited, "Oh my God, Mr. Edward has bid seventy million US dollars, which is the highest price at the moment! I wonder if any other gentlemen or ladies are willing to continue bidding?"

As the host finished speaking, the black man walked up to Elsa and passionately expressed his love, "Elsa, this is your mother's birthday present. I think you really want to take it back. As long as you agree to be my girlfriend, I'll buy this necklace for you no matter how much it costs."

Elsa frowned unhappily. "Mr. Edward, I have already made it clear to you that we are not suitable for each other, and I will not agree to be your girlfriend. I hope you can understand."

Edward began to get agitated. "Elsa, I've been pursuing you for three years, and you still won't say yes. Why is that?"

If it weren't for the fact that she's so beautiful and it would be a great honor to take her out, he wouldn't have wasted his energy pursuing an illegitimate daughter.

With Li Zhanting by her side, Elsa didn't take Edward seriously at all. "Mr. Edward, please don't make things difficult for me, and I don't need you to do anything for me. Zhanting will help me."

"What friend of yours, your boyfriend? I didn't know you had a boyfriend!" Edward roared in anger.

But when she saw the man next to Elsa, her expression immediately changed. How could it be Li Zhanting?

He could use his status or money to suppress other men, but Li Zhanting was a man even his father had to treat with deference, so how could he dare to offend him?

But seeing that she could spend a wild night with Elsa at this charity auction tonight, she was actually a little reluctant to let it go.

But if Elsa and Li Zhanting were really boyfriend and girlfriend, he would have to give up. "Elsa, your boyfriend is actually President Li? Why didn't you say so sooner? I almost made a mistake. Here, consider this diamond necklace that I bought for 70 million US dollars as my apology. I hope you can talk to President Li for me and ask him not to be angry."

Elsa neither acknowledged nor denied her relationship with Li Zhanting, but simply expressed her gratitude by saying, "Thank you for understanding, Edward, but I cannot accept this gift."

However, when Edward heard these words, it was interpreted as an admission of their relationship, while Li Zhanting, who was looking at his phone, did not deny it.

Edward quickly put on a smile and flattered her, "Elsa, you're too kind to me. President Li is our company's biggest partner, earning several times that amount in profits every year. This diamond necklace is just a small token of my appreciation. I wish you happiness."

Elsa's beautiful face flushed slightly. "Thank you."

When Li Zhanting put down his phone, the diamond necklace had already been auctioned for 75 million. Not wanting to waste time on this, he bid 80 million US dollars in one go.

This is more than double the original value of the necklace. The host was excited again, "Thank you Mr. Li for bidding another $80 million. There are no more bidders. $80 million for the first time, $80 million for the second time, $80 million for the third time, sold! Thank you Mr. Li for your generosity, and thank you to the Wilson family for their charitable donation."

With that final decision, the diamond necklace was once again in Elsa's hands.

Elsa took back the necklace and held it tightly in her hand. Her tense heart finally settled down, and her beautiful face once again showed a smile that could launch a thousand ships.

Seeing this, Edward couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Li, you're truly amazing! To make Elsa happy, you didn't even blink an eye at eighty million US dollars. I admire you, I really admire you!"

To be honest, when he asked for 70 million US dollars, he was a little unsure of himself. If Li Zhanting hadn't intervened again, he would have had a hard time explaining it to his father when he got home.

Li Zhanting was focused on chatting with Shen Yanran on WeChat and had no idea what Edward and Elsa were talking about, let alone that he had misunderstood their relationship. "What did you say?"

"I said... Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I have a phone call to take." Edward apologized and then turned and left.

Li Zhanting frowned slightly, as if he had missed something important.

Elsa hugged Li Zhanting excitedly, even wanting to kiss his cheek. "Thank you, Zhan, thank you so much. You don't know how I would have been able to explain to my mother if it weren't for your help tonight."

Li Zhanting immediately took two steps back, rejecting Elsa's ambiguous gratitude.

When Xie Tingrui returned from smoking outside, he happened to see Elsa trying to kiss Li Zhanting, and he was a little shocked.

If Li Zhanting hadn't reacted immediately and stepped back, he might have thought that Li Zhanting's previous remarks about being a good husband were just a joke.

Moreover, on the way back, I heard quite a few people talking about how Eastern men spend lavishly on stunningly beautiful women.

He thought it was just foreigners gossip and didn't pay much attention, but now it seems that the Eastern man they were talking about must be Li Zhanting, and the stunning beauty must be Elsa.

He only smoked two cigarettes, how did their relationship become so complicated?

Xie Tingrui didn't want to keep guessing; he decided to ask directly, "Old Li, Elsa, what happened just now..."

Elsa pretended nothing had happened, raising her exquisitely beautiful face and smiling radiantly as she said, "Rui, you're back just in time. Zhan just helped me win this diamond necklace, I'm so happy."

Xie Tingrui also has a collection of precious diamond jewelry at home. He could tell at a glance that the diamond necklace was worth at least 30 million US dollars. Although this amount of money was nothing to Li Zhanting, he was not interested in the auction, so why did he suddenly change his mind and buy a diamond necklace for Elsa?

And does his wife know he's doing this?

Xie Tingrui had so many questions. "Old Li, aren't you afraid..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Zhanting's expression revealed a hint of impatience. "It's getting late, let's go."

He has already donated all the money he could and helped with all the other things he could. There's really no need for him to stay. Besides, he promised Shen Yanran that he would go home early and video chat with her.

Seeing that Li Zhanting had left, Xie Tingrui saw no need to stay any longer. He simply apologized to Elsa beside him, "Elsa, we'll be going now. Let's meet up again sometime. Goodbye."

Elsa was naturally reluctant to part with Li Zhanting like this. She still had so much to say to him, but since Li Zhanting had already gone so far, she couldn't insist that he stay. "Okay, let's make an appointment another day. Drive carefully on your way back."

Xie Tingrui waved his hand and chased after Li Zhanting's figure.

The car that came to pick them up was parked at the hotel entrance early in the morning. Before the media reporters who had been waiting at the entrance could react, Li Zhanting and Xie Tingrui had already gotten into the car and left.

What they didn't know was that everything that had just happened in the hotel had been filmed and sent out.

The recipient was Xiao Jinghao, who was waiting for an opportunity in China.

He never gave up the idea of ​​being with Shen Yanran; she was the only light in his heart!

If this light were to disappear, his world would truly be plunged into eternal darkness.

So he spared no effort to find a breakthrough in the relationship between Shen Yanran and Li Zhanting, and finally, on this day, he found it!

Then things became much easier.

Looking at the photo of the two people almost kissing in an ambiguous manner, Xiao Jinghao's handsome face curled into a strange smile. "Li Zhanting, Li Zhanting, I thought you were such a gentleman who didn't get close to women, but it turns out you're just a scumbag who knows how to pretend. Since you don't know how to cherish Yanran, then let me take care of her for the rest of my life!"

After saving the photos on his phone, Xiao Jinghao immediately sent Shen Yanran a WeChat message: "Yanran, it's my birthday the day after tomorrow. I'd like you to spend it with me, is that okay?"
