Of course, if that was really Yuan Yilin's purpose, Gu Ning could only say that she was overthinking it.
Because the premise was that Gu Ning's relationship with Master Leng was very ordinary, but she was really close to Yuan Yilin.
Yes, Yuan Yilin had such an attitude. Even if she didn't think that Gu Ning and Master Leng were very close, she couldn't bear to see Gu Ning befriend them.
"Senior Yuan," Gu Ning replied indifferently.
"Who did you come with?" Yuan Yilin asked.
"I received an invitation and came here myself," Gu Ning replied, then said apologetically, "Senior Yuan, I'm really sorry. I'm talking to Grandpa Leng right now, so I can't continue chatting with you. It's disrespectful to Grandpa Leng if you suddenly interrupt."
Gu Ning's words directly slapped Yuan Yilin in the face. She was talking to Master Leng, so it was disrespectful to interrupt halfway. It also meant that Yuan Yilin interrupted her conversation with Master Leng, which was disrespectful.
When the people around heard that, the way they looked at Yuan Yilin instantly changed. They didn't expect that the granddaughter of the Yuan family would be so immature to interrupt someone, and the person was Master Leng.
Did she not take Master Leng seriously?
Although the four dominant families didn't have a good relationship and it was common for them to fight openly and secretly, the behavior of interrupting others was a sign of bad manners.
Even if the four dominant families didn't get along, Master Leng was still an elder after all.
Moreover, Master Leng was the head of Family Leng, so his status was special. Yuan Yilin was too arrogant!
Master Leng wasn't a calculative person. Even if Gu Ning and Yuan Yilin knew each other, he didn't think it was a big deal, because knowing each other and being friends were two different things. He wouldn't stop Family Leng and Gu Ning from interacting with the Yuan family just because Gu Ning and Gu Ning were enemies.
He knew and believed that Gu Ning would never do anything to harm Family Leng.
However, after hearing Gu Ning's words, Master Leng also felt that Gu Ning and Yuan Yilin were not on friendly terms. Hence, he looked at Yuan Yilin with a serious and gloomy expression, as if he was really unhappy about Yuan Yilin's plan.
Old Master Yuan's expression instantly turned ugly as he glared at Yuan Yilin sternly.
He didn't notice it at first, but when the girl said it, he realized that Yi Lin, when did she become so insensible? He had humiliated him in front of Leng Weihua.
The girl with the surname Gu had obviously done it on purpose. Thinking about it, Old Master Yuan vented his anger on Gu Ning. However, it was true that Yuan Yilin was in the wrong, so he could not say anything.
Yuan Yilin also realized this problem, and her face suddenly turned ugly. She was startled by her grandfather's stern glare.
Damn it, Gu Ning had embarrassed her in public. If she hadn't said anything, who would have thought?
She had done something wrong, but she blamed Gu Ning.
The grandfather and granddaughter were indeed a family.
Gu Ning felt wronged.
However, she was still the daughter of a big family, so Yuan Yilin immediately reacted. "I'm sorry. I was just surprised that you were here, so I forgot for a moment."
Then, she looked at Master Leng and apologized again. "I'm sorry, Grandpa Leng. I didn't do it on purpose. Please don't blame me."
Even though Yuan Yilin was extremely unhappy, she still apologized with a very good attitude on the surface, not wanting to be the subject of ridicule.
In this way, some people believed that Yuan Yilin did not do it on purpose.
Man is not a saint, how can there be no mistakes? Moreover, this was not a big deal.
"Okay! It's fine. Just be careful in the future. "Master Leng magnanimously let it go. He had no intention of making a fuss in the first place.
"Sure, I'll be careful in the future," Yuan Yilin replied.
After that, Yuan Yilin stopped talking to Gu Ning. Even if she was dissatisfied with Gu Ning, she didn't dare to show it on her face right now, because the people here weren't simple people. Once she showed any abnormal reaction, she would be discovered.
She cared about her face very much, and so did her grandfather. If she embarrassed her grandfather again, she would definitely be scolded.
However, she would remember Gu Ning. She would not let her have an easy time.
Yuan Yilin's heart was filled with darkness.
"Hey, girl, what happened between you and her?" Xu Jingchen leaned towards Gu Ning and asked in a low voice.
"Suddenly, she came to warn me one day. She said that I was too arrogant and should keep a low profile. If I offended someone I shouldn't offend, what would she do? Later, when I found out who she was, I understood why she warned me. It was because I had a conflict with her cousin, Yuan Shuyan. However, she suddenly greeted me today and seemed so familiar with me. It's obvious that she's up to something. I guess she saw me talking to Grandpa Leng, so she thought that I have someone to rely on. That's why she was so arrogant. She deliberately pretended that she had a good relationship with me so that Grandpa Leng would distance himself from me. After all, the relationship between the four dominant families … "Gu Ning did not continue, but everyone understood what she meant.
"If that's the case, I can only say that she thinks too much." Xu Jingchen said with disdain. Gu Ning was Family Leng's future granddaughter-in-law. How could Master Leng distance himself from her just because of Yuan Yilin's little tricks?
He also knew that Yuan Yilin thought that she did not know Gu Ning's identity. If she had known, she would not have done such an idiotic thing.
After a few words, the host also went on the stage, and the people below also quieted down.
After the host's speech, the auction began.
Objects that could be auctioned in such a large auction house were naturally not of ordinary value.
"Grandpa Leng, are you just here to take a look, or do you want to auction something?" Gu Ning asked. Because all the auction items had been publicized a week before the auction, everyone knew what the auction items were this time.
"We're just here to take a look. Although the objects this time are all good, there's nothing special that we want. The main thing is that auctions like this tend to raise the price too high. It's not worth it to spend money, "Master Leng said. Although he did not lack money, it did not mean that he did not know how to control himself.
"That's true." Gu Ning felt the same way. The value of these antiques was all hyped up. It was simply a waste of money.
She was also interested in collecting antiques, but she was also interested in buying and selling antiques. It was precisely because it was a waste of money that she could make money.
Different hobbies. If someone liked it, they would be willing to spend money.
"This time, we're mainly here for the bronze chimes." Master Leng said. Although they had studied the bronze chimes, they still came to watch the auction process and the results. Moreover, they were here to support Gu Ning.
