"What's wrong, Yu girl?"

Lin Zhengmao quickly noticed Yu Yu's unusual behavior and pressed her for an explanation.

No, I must be overthinking it.

Although Yu Yu hadn't spent much time with Guan Shan, she could tell that Guan Shan and Chen Xiaoping didn't get along well, and that Guan Shan was rather laissez-faire towards his daughter, Guan Jing.

They probably won't launch any big-scale revenge against me because of Guan Jing and Lin Jingye's affair, right?

Thinking of this, Yu Yu felt relieved.

They focused all their attention on the auction.

Because her collection sparked a buying frenzy in the collecting world, the people who came to the auction were extremely sincere, and the prices they offered far exceeded her expectations, some even several times higher.

After the auction concluded, Yu Yu, as the auctioneer, along with Lin Zhengmao and Li Wenyao, negotiated with the auction organizers.

After settling the subsequent commissions, Yu Yu could pocket the remaining money after deducting taxes.

However, as they walked over, they happened to run into Guan Shan whispering something to the person in charge.

The smile on Yu Yu's lips vanished instantly.

The moment Guan Shan looked up, he saw Yu Yu, and an almost imperceptible look of contempt and indifference instantly poured out from his eyes.

That one look was chillingly cold.

Then he smiled and looked at the person in charge, "Mr. Leng, is it possible for any Tom, Dick, or Harry to get into our Sotheby's auction house now?"

Mr. Leng was puzzled. Upon seeing Yu Yu, he immediately tried to explain, "Mr. Guan, are you mistaken? This is—"

However, his explanation was interrupted by Guan Shan, who spoke calmly and deliberately.

“I know her. She’s the daughter of the former richest man, Yu Yu, and she happens to be my daughter’s classmate. Recently, there have been some minor conflicts between their younger daughters.”

He emphasized the words "not too big, not too small".

Yu Yu realized that Guan Shan wanted to give her a hard time, just like Guan Jing and Lin Jingye had done before, and wanted to use their power to make her back down.

even--

They wanted to force her to submit.

For those who are poor but unyielding, break their pride and make them kneel on the ground, enjoying the ultimate pleasure brought by money and power.

Can----

Where in the world can you find such a smooth and prosperous life?

A person may have smooth sailing, but it's impossible for things to always go smoothly.

For Guan Shan, Chen Xiaoping, Guan Jing, and Lin Jingye, encountering her was like kicking a hornet's nest!

Even if she has nothing, she can still jump over the wall if provoked. Besides, she does have some things now.

The words her parents taught her before they died kept echoing in her ears:

Those who are barefoot are afraid of those who are wearing shoes; the soft are afraid of the hard; the hard are afraid of the ruthless; and the ruthless are afraid of the reckless!

Now that Yu Yu is all alone, she has nothing to be afraid of!

Thinking of this, she smiled.

"I thought Mr. Guan was unaware of the conflict between Guan Jing and me. But it seems Mr. Guan has misunderstood something. The conflict between your daughter and me is not a trivial matter."

"After all—kidnapping is a criminal case. Your daughter openly defied the law, and the case of her kidnapping me is still not closed."

Upon hearing this, passersby gasped in surprise!

"I'd heard before that Lao Guan's daughter had gotten into trouble, but I never imagined it was a kidnapping! What exactly happened?"

The speaker was an elegantly dressed noblewoman who was covering her mouth in surprise, clearly shocked by the news.

Yu Yu had never felt that the onlookers were so adorable.

She even playfully interacted with the onlookers, saying, "It's very simple. Her daughter is not only love-struck, but also a brain-dead love-struck fool. She kidnapped me to save her boyfriend who committed rape and wanted me to drop the case!"

Isn't this a coincidence?

The gossip-loving crowd is Mrs. Liu, a well-known gossip in high society.

Her mouth was wide enough to fit an egg, and her eyes were wide with shock, like saucers.

"My God, look what I just heard! What's going on? One thing has led to another!"

"What exactly happened, young lady?"

"This is a long story, so let me make it short."

Yu Yu's words were abruptly cut off by Guan Shan!

"Enough! Secretary Liu, I suddenly realized we have another appointment. Excuse me, Mr. Leng, I suddenly realized I have something important to take care of. Please excuse me!"

After saying that, he hurriedly turned and left.

but--

Now that Guan Shan has fired the shot, there's no reason to let him leave halfway through!

Yu Yu stepped forward and stretched out an arm to block Guan Shan's path.

"Wait, Uncle Guan, there's something I haven't asked you yet. There's something I hope to get an answer from you."

As Yu Yu spoke, she gave a wink to the bodyguards who were lurking nearby, signaling them to turn on their phones and start recording.

"what's up?"

Guan Shan, being a shrewd man who had been around for many years, quickly came up with an excuse.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Yu, I have something important to do. You don't know how busy I am, since I'm not in the business world. Every minute I do business worth hundreds of millions. Sometimes I'm so busy that I can't afford to waste a single minute!"

"Otherwise, who will be responsible for this loss?"

These words were spoken with a hidden barb, and even carried a subtle warning to Yu Yu.

If Yu Yu were still the same Yu Yu as before, she might actually have been fooled.

But she'd been driven crazy by his family lately, so this little bit of rhetoric was no problem for her.

"Is Uncle trying to scare me? Does he want me to compensate him for the few minutes I wasted?"

Yu Yu insisted on exposing his subtle, hidden thoughts.

Not only did she make it clear, Yu Yu also raised an eyebrow, almost provocatively waiting for Guan Shan's answer.

Guan Shan narrowed his eyes, not expecting that in such a short time, the aura of that gentle and obedient girl had changed so much.

I underestimated her!

Thinking of this, Guan Shan quickly came up with a response: "What are you talking about? Of course, Uncle didn't mean that. Since you insist on stopping Uncle, then Uncle will give you face out of consideration for our past relationship."

There's an implied meaning to that statement.

I'm being too kind to you. Speak your mind quickly, and you'd better know what to say and what not to say. Otherwise, I can choose to disregard our past relationship.

You'd better think this through!

That expression, that demeanor, those narrowed eyes gleaming with sharp light—all spoke volumes about those words.

But Yu Yu acted as if she hadn't heard anything, wasting Guan Shan's excellent acting skills.

"Since Uncle has said so, then I won't stand on ceremony. If I remember correctly, Guan Jing and Lin Jingye are both in jail, one for kidnapping and the other for rape. Why is it such a coincidence that they suddenly came out of jail and appeared at the auction today?"
