Ruan Fuxi couldn't help but laugh at him seriously calling out "Brother-in-law."
So soon to be calling him Brother-in-law, huh?
Sheng Yanzhou thought to himself that it was only a matter of time. Not only Brother-in-law, but he could also call his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
At that moment, Yu Qi at the auction was fuming, her face cold and silent. The man beside her, Huang Jian, was quite taken with her and felt heartbroken seeing her angry. He leaned in to comfort her.
"Alright, Qi Qi, this yellow gemstone has already been auctioned off. How about I buy you two others of similar quality?"
Yu Qi huffed, both anxious and angry.
"You have no idea how much this stone meant to me! Didn't you promise me you would definitely bid for it? Why did you let someone else take it?"
The man continued to softly coax her.
"It's my fault, but now that it's been auctioned off, please don't let it ruin your health."
He had bid over twenty thousand for it; he offered over forty thousand—wasn't that sincere enough?
If there was anything special about this stone compared to others, it was that it had been discovered deep in the desert.
He could always have someone search for similar stones again; surely they could find one or two that were close enough. Besides, everything he had provided for her these days—food, clothing, shelter—wasn't it all good enough? Just because of a broken stone, she was upset with him.
Although he cherished Yu Qi, he was starting to feel a bit impatient. Yet he couldn't understand why he found her so alluring and felt an irresistible urge to please her.
If this had been in the past, he would have long since tossed aside someone who acted spoiled like this. There was no way he would keep her around and treat her like a treasure.
Could it be true love?
Hearing what the man said, Yu Qi realized she couldn't push too far; a man's patience had its limits. She still needed his money.
So she turned her head, biting her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.
But that yellow gemstone really means a lot to me.
Seeing her like this, the man’s heart softened immediately.
"I know, but Qiqi, do you know who was in the private room that took the item away?"
Yu Qi asked, "Who was it?"
"Whoever it is, they can't take the loyalty stone she gave to Yuantian."
The man sighed, "It's Sheng Yanzhou. Tell me, how can I compete with him?"
Not to mention whether he could win or not, even if he managed to get it, he wouldn’t dare to take it. He simply didn’t have the guts.
Hearing this, Yu Qi narrowed her eyes.
"Sheng Yanzhou. Isn’t he Ruan Fuxi’s boyfriend?"
Sheng Yanzhou was so wealthy; what did he need with a stone like that?
A sudden realization struck Yu Qi as she recalled the female voice that had come from that private room earlier—it was Ruan Fuxi’s voice.
Grinding her teeth, she felt an even deeper hatred for Ruan Fuxi.
It was her who ruined everything!
She had been driven out of the Yu family because of Ruan Fuxi, and now she couldn’t bid on the yellow crystal gemstone because of her too.
Ruan Fuxi must be cursing her!
Yu Qi glanced up at the private room above, a cold glint of hatred flashing in her eyes.
Even if she hadn’t joined the metaphysics sect yet, she didn’t want to swallow this anger. She had to make Ruan Fuxi pay some price for this.
Yu Qi shifted her gaze, contemplating how to deal with Ruan Fuxi.
