"Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law's skills in being a sharp - tongued person are on par with yours," Bai Shaoting sighed faintly from the side.
Fu Qianchen stood not far away, looking at the pretty and charming girl. The corners of his thin lips curled up slightly. However, when he turned his eyes to Bai Shaoting, they were cold and gloomy. "Are you very familiar with her? Do you want her to work for you so that you can get closer?"
"Third Brother, can we talk properly without you getting jealous?" Bai Shaoting was on the verge of crying.
Why did he, a mere onlooker, get into so much trouble when the couple quarreled?
It had been so long, yet Third Brother still held a grudge against him.
Bai Shaoting heaved a long sigh. If it were in the past, this would have been unthinkable.
Their iron - blooded, ruthless, and resolute Third Brother was actually being cold to him because of a woman.
Feng Qingsheng was wearing an extremely exquisite long dress. She sweetly held onto Mu Shiyan's arm. "Brother Shiyan, thank you. Our Feng family really needs this piece of land. The land in the Western City is what my father has been eyeing for a long time. But you know, because of some malicious people's framing, our Feng family's capital chain was broken. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do."
Mu Shiyan didn't say much. He just said indifferently, "We're about to get engaged soon. You'll be my fiancée. This is nothing."
Hearing the word "fiancée", Feng Qingsheng was on cloud nine.
She was about to reach the position she had always dreamed of.
Humph, by then, she'd see how she could deal with that widow without any backer!
The land auction started on time at nine o'clock. Immediately, everyone in the venue took their seats.
Feng Yu was arranged in the second row. But unfortunately, Fu Qianchen didn't sit beside her. According to their status, Hailan, a small company, was directly arranged in the back seats.
She sat alone in the front row, extremely nervous.
The process of this auction was actually very fast. The competition for popular lots was extremely fierce.
But she noticed that Fu Qianchen hadn't said a word until a certain piece of land in the Western City was put up for auction. Then he spoke.
Many people in the venue were whispering to each other. It wasn't for anything else but because this piece of land in the Western City was extremely desolate and had basically become an unpopular lot.
Except for the three who had raised their signs, no one else was willing to compete for it. It was like throwing money away.
But now, the two big shots from the Mu and Fu families were vying for it. Immediately, everyone was filled with emotion.
Just as they were sighing with emotion, who would have thought that an insignificant small company, Hailan, would also dare to bid. Many people in the venue cast looks of ridicule, sympathy, and the thought that they were being reckless.
"They're still too young. This piece of land is basically useless. It's just an abandoned factory that has been polluted for a long time. No one knows how much the renovation cost will be if they buy it."
"Look at this Hailan Company. They probably think they've picked up a big bargain. The person in charge must be a fool, right?"
"That's right. What kind of fool would buy this piece of land?"
But who would have thought that before those people had finished sighing, someone else joined the bidding.
It was none other than the well - known Fu Group. Although it was the project president who appeared, the enterprise he relied on behind him made everyone tremble.
"Why does the Fu family want this piece of land? It's useless!"
"Who knows."
While they were still discussing, someone else made an offer.
This voice sounded very familiar to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu looked towards the front row. Right in front of her, not far away, were a man and a woman almost glued together. They were none other than Mu Shiyan and Feng Qingsheng.
She frowned slightly and heard Feng Qingsheng whispering, "Brother Shiyan, thank you. Mommy really wants this piece of land."
Feng Yu let out a soft snort.
She really was everywhere!
The quiet Feng Yu also raised her sign.
Everyone was even more surprised.
"Who is this? Why are so many people competing for this abandoned land?"
"Don't you know? This is the third young mistress of the Fu family. I heard that when the ugliest man in our North City, Fu Qianchen, just married this bride, he died in a car accident. She's really bad luck for her husband. Who would have thought that she would also bid for this piece of land."
"Didn't you read the news? This pretty widow has already been having an affair behind the Fu family's back. I heard that she's very close to Hailan. Look, isn't she helping them snatch the land?"
"Really or fake?"
People around were discussing animatedly. Bai Shaoting was sitting with his legs crossed, smiling with pursed lips as he looked at Fu Qianchen and said, "Third Brother, you've caused so many rumors for Third Sister - in - law. Can she handle it? After all, she's just a young girl who has just come of age..."
Before Bai Shaoting could finish his sentence, he felt extremely cold all over.
He looked at the man with a cold and gloomy face and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Oh well, he was just being careless again and knocked over the vinegar jar.
"Umm... I meant that her mind is not fully mature yet," Bai Shaoting said with a forced smile.
Fu Qianchen's black eyes were cold and terrifying. He stared at Bai Shaoting and said coldly, "She can handle it."
He brought her here just to let her gain some experience. He didn't really expect her to do anything for him.
But he didn't expect that she was quite proactive.
The corners of Fu Qianchen's thin lips curled up slightly. His gaze towards the pretty back also softened a bit.
"Feng Yu! Why are you here!" Feng Qingsheng stared hatefully at the elegant girl. "What do you want this piece of land for?"
Feng Yu curled her lips, looking lazy and relaxed. "Oh, nothing. I just saw that you wanted it so much, so I'm just bidding for fun."
Feng Qingsheng was so angry that she was speechless.
She immediately grabbed Mu Shiyan's arm and acted coquettishly. "Shiyan, look at her. She's always competing with me. She competes with me for everything and only knows how to bully me. Woohoo, Brother Shiyan, I want that piece of land."
Mu Shiyan stared at the sharp - tongued girl with cold eyes.
Her eyebrows and eyes were just like before, so sweet. Even when she smiled, she seemed to be soaked in milk candies, exuding a pleasant and likable aura.
"You really want this piece of land?" Mu Shiyan's words seemed to be asking Feng Yu and also Feng Qingsheng.
Feng Qingsheng acted coquettishly. "Of course, Brother Shiyan. Mommy said that we must buy this piece of land. As long as we do, our Feng family can make a comeback."
Feng Yu leaned back slightly, raising her eyebrows as she looked at Mu Shiyan. Her eyes were full of alienation.
"I'm asking you. Do you want this piece of land?" Mu Shiyan ignored Feng Qingsheng and stared straight at Feng Yu as he asked again.
Feng Qingsheng's heart was almost cold. She thought that Mu Shiyan was thinking about her.
But who would have thought that his eyes and heart were all on that damned widow!
"Let's compete fairly. If Young Master Mu is willing, you can compete with me," Feng Yu said as she raised her sign again. She looked back and her gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Fu Qianchen, who had been staring at her. She said, "Anyway, I'm using my husband's money. I'm happy."
As soon as she finished speaking.
Everyone around had different expressions. Some were envious, some were contemptuous, some were admiring, and some were spitting with disgust.
