Yang Jianping knew that he was in the wrong, so he didn't argue with her, but he also ignored her. He had to admit that he was attracted to Zhao Xiyuan now.
He had been in a relationship with Zhao Xiyuan for three years before they got married, so they had feelings for each other. However, men were all visual creatures. When Zhao Xiyuan wasn't as beautiful as before, he felt tired and couldn't bring her out to every gathering.
Moreover, when he was rich, his social circle would be different. Seeing that the people around him were all lovers and mistresses, he naturally couldn't resist this kind of temptation, so he betrayed Zhao Xiyuan.
In the beginning, he still felt guilty towards Zhao Xiyuan, but every time he saw Zhao Xiyuan's bloated figure and unkempt appearance, he would feel disgusted. As time passed, he no longer felt guilty.
In the beginning, he was just fooling around with her, and had no intention of divorcing her. However, he was extremely annoyed by their arguments, so he had to tell her the truth in the end.
After watching the drama, Xu Jingchen told Chen Meng and the others to find a seat, while he took Gu Ning to the appraisal office to appraise the official kiln brush washer and sign the contract. Of course, Leng Shaoting followed them.
After the appraisal, the official kiln brush washer was confirmed to be real, so it passed the test. However, Gu Ning's item was the last one to arrive, so it had to be put at the end.
Gu Ning didn't care, as long as it could be auctioned.
When Gu Ning and the others went back to the venue, Gu Ning's sight fell on a man and a woman by accident. Her eyes flashed with hatred and killing intent, and she became cold all of a sudden.
Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue.
At this time, Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue were talking with someone.
Leng Shaoting and Xu Jingchen immediately sensed the change of Gu Ning's aura. They looked at Gu Ning and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Hearing Leng Shaoting and Xu Jingchen's voices, Gu Ning's expression immediately returned to normal, and she restrained her cold aura.
"Nothing, I just saw two annoying people."
Gu Ning had thought countless times about how she would react when she saw Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue. She thought she could handle it calmly, but she still could not help but want to kill them.
Leng Shaoting and Xu Jingchen didn't ask much, but they felt that it wasn't as simple as hatred. Would hatred give birth to killing intent? But since Gu Ning didn't want to talk about it, they didn't ask further.
Qi Ziyue felt a sudden chill that made him shudder. But when he looked for the source of this chill, he didn't find anything.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yaxin asked when he saw Qi Ziyue's strange look.
"Nothing." Qi Ziyue didn't know what was going on either, so he could only say that it was nothing.
At this time, the celebrities who came to attend the auction were all seated according to their numbers, because the auction was about to begin.
The seats were in the form of round tables. There were three round tables in a row, and each table could seat six people. Gu Ning's group had seven people, so they had already asked someone to add an extra seat.
The seats were arranged according to their social status. Xu Jingchen was the young master of the richest family in the capital, so his social status was naturally not low. The others also came in the name of the Xu family, so they were arranged to sit on the right side of the second row.
The first row was filled with experts and senior officials, and the second row was also filled with senior officials and senior rich families, but only a few senior officials and senior rich families were able to attend the auction.
The Tang Family was a third-tier rich family, so they were arranged to sit on the left side of the third row. Gu Ning happened to sit at the table on the far left.
Gu Ning didn't want to think about Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue, in case it affected her mood, so she deliberately sat with her back to them.
However, they were under the same roof now, so she couldn't help thinking about them. Luckily, she couldn't see them, so she didn't lose her composure.
Before long, she was attracted by a business card, so she didn't have time to think about Tang Yaxin and Qi Ziyue.
The auction didn't only include antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, but also real estate, bases, and shops.
What attracted Gu Ning's attention was the ninth auction item, Xiangyun Antique-store. According to the introduction, this antique store was located on the antique street, and it was in a good location.
Xiangyun Antique-store had been in business for more than 70 years, and it had been established since the Republic of China, so it was very famous in the capital, and its business was quite good.
The reason why Xiangyun Antique-store was auctioned was that the wife and son of the owner of Xiangyun Antique-store had passed away in a car accident. He was so sad that he had no intention to run the business anymore, so he sold it and went back to his hometown.
Gu Ning thought that the antiques in her telepathic eye space were useless, and she could find more in the future. She might as well open an antique store.
Although she only had a dozen real antiques now, an antique store didn't only sell real antiques. If she only sold real antiques, it would be difficult for her to run a business, because not everyone could afford real antiques. However, many people would buy imitation antiques and handicrafts because they were cheaper.
Therefore, Gu Ning decided to bid for Xiangyun Antique-store.
This store wasn't small, and it covered an area of 86 square meters. It was a two-story building with two connected storefronts.
When it was 2 pm, the auction began.
A mature woman in a red cheongsam with a high slit walked onto the stage.
Many people recognized her at once. Wasn't she Zhao Xiyuan, who had just quarreled with Zhang Jiajia?
Seeing Zhao Xiyuan, Yang Jianping's eyes were wide open at once, but Zhang Jiajia was mad. She pinched Yang Jianping hard, but didn't dare to say a word. However, Yang Jianping still stared at Zhao Xiyuan on the stage, and didn't give Zhang Jiajia any response, which annoyed Zhang Jiajia.
Of course, she naturally did not dare to do so. It was precisely because she did not dare to do so that she had nowhere to vent her anger, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
"Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon! Welcome to the auction held by Detian Auction Company today. I'm the chief auctioneer of Detian Auction Company, Zhao Xiyuan. "
Saying that, Zhao Xiyuan paused for a second, then continued, "There are 12 items to be auctioned today, and they're already on the auction list. However, we just added one more item today, so there are 13 items to be auctioned today. The last item is an Official Kiln Brush Washer from the Song Dynasty, and I hope you'd like to bid for it. "
What? An Official Kiln Brush Washer from the Song Dynasty?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. This price was not small at all!
Especially those who liked painting and calligraphy, they naturally preferred the four treasures of the study, so many of them had their eyes on this Official Kiln Brush Washer from the Song Dynasty.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen. Now, let's auction the first item … "
