"Chen Qiang."
A loud exhalation was heard.
At this moment, everyone at the venue looked in the direction of the voice. They saw a gray-haired old man standing at the door, leaning on a walking stick. His figure was not strong, but his back was straight, and he looked very dignified.
The person who came was the head of the Shen family, Shen Jiugui, who was also Chen Qiang's father-in-law.
Chen Qiang was considered half a live-in son-in-law. The reason why his business could reach this stage was because of the Shen family. All along, being afraid of his wife and relying on his father-in-law had become his label. He dared to be angry, but he did not dare to say anything. He could only curse in his heart. He hated and feared Shen Jiugui.
At this moment, when he heard his voice, he was so scared that his whole body started to tremble. He subconsciously turned his head and tried to calm himself down. "Dad."
"I'm not your dad." Shen Jiugui slammed his walking stick on the ground and looked in Chen Qiang's direction. His eyes were not as turbid as an ordinary old man's. His eyes were very bright, and his voice was powerful. "Your wife, my daughter, Shen Furong, is still in the intensive care unit. Her life is unknown, but you are here with a confidante who is about the same age as your daughter. How happy."
The old man's words were still very respectful. She was clearly a mistress, but he called her a confidante, but anyone could hear his anger at this moment.
"Dad, I …" Chen Qiang looked at the old man and started to smile apologetically. "Meng Meng and I are not in the relationship you think. She is my secretary. She accompanied me here to bid for that thousand-year-old ginseng for Furong."
"Chen Qiang, I'm not blind. Don't take me for a fool." Shen Jiugui was full of vigor as he looked at everyone present. "Everyone, be a witness for this old man. I, Shen Jiugui, announce here today that from this moment onwards, Chen Qiang is expelled from my Shen family. My Shen family has severed all ties with him. We have nothing to do with him anymore."
Chen Qiang's expression changed. He had a lot of assets, but many of them were under the Shen family's name. Many of his business partners only cooperated with him because of the Shen family.
All these years, although he had been trying to get rid of the Shen family's power and suppress the power close to the Shen family, the old man had always been in control, and the results were minimal.
When Lu Meng heard this, she was very proud in her heart. She was thinking about what she should do to be able to marry him and become the wife of a rich family.
Chen Qiang's personal wealth could be ranked in the top 20 in the country. Even if he left the Shen family, he was still a billionaire.
"Dad, are you doing this for her?" Chen Qiang was forced to go all out. He pointed at Lu Li and said, "Did you kick me out of the Shen family to pave the way for them? Are you afraid that I'll steal your illegitimate son's property? "
This old thing kept saying that he doted on his daughter the most and treated him as his own son. But in the end, he still wanted to give birth to a son to inherit his assets. He said that as long as he treated his daughter well, the Shen family would be his in the future. Wasn't it just a pretense for him to work hard for the Shen family?
"Shut up!" Shen Jiugui was so angry that his face was livid. He pointed at him angrily. "Nothing good comes out of a dog's mouth. Miss Lu was entrusted by me to help bid for the snow lotus. That thousand-year-old snow lotus is used to treat Furong's illness."
Don't think that he was muddle-headed because he was old and didn't know anything. He knew all the things that he did outside. It was just that ever since his daughter fell ill, his mind was focused on treating his daughter and he didn't have time to deal with him.
"Entrusted to bid for the snow lotus? Why can't you give it to me? I came here to bid for the snow lotus to treat Furong's illness. "Chen Qiang didn't budge an inch and lied through his teeth.
"There are many people here. I don't want to expose you. It's also considered leaving some face for us father-in-law." Shen Jiugui didn't expect that at this point, he would still dare to smear his name.
He was already so old, and he still wanted his face. He didn't dare to harm other people's little girls. Unlike him, when his daughter was healthy, he didn't have the guts to do it. Now that his daughter was ill, he could finally cheat.
"Are you afraid to expose me, or are you afraid that you won't be able to protect your integrity in your old age?" Chen Qiang knew the old man's temper. He was a man of his word. If he said that he would cut ties with him, he would definitely cut ties with him.
But he was not convinced. What right did he have to fool around outside and get a woman who could be his granddaughter pregnant and give birth to two children? He had just found one, and he was so angry that he wanted to chase him away. He even said that it wasn't to make way for his illegitimate child.
"You're talking nonsense." Shen Jiugui's face darkened. "I know that all these years, you hate me. I chased you away not for anything else but for Furong. A person like you isn't worthy of her. You can insult me, but don't insult Miss Lu."
Chen Qiang snorted coldly. The more he explained, the more he felt that this matter was true. Lu Li's child was the old man's. "You want to chase me away? Have you asked Shen Furong? Did she agree? I'm her husband. "
Shen Jiugui and Chen Qiang directly confronted each other in front of everyone.
This matter happened too suddenly. The onlookers were all dumbfounded. Looking at the scene in front of them, they began to whisper to each other, discussing who the father of Lu Li's child was.
If it was really Old Master Shen, then this old man really couldn't protect his integrity in his old age. However, even if the old man had a child with someone else, at most, he would be disrespectful. His wife had passed away 30 years ago. Everyone knew that.
Chen Qiang was different. He had a family. Fooling around outside was cheating on his marriage. No matter what, he was in the wrong.
But he said that Old Master Shen chased him out to make way for his illegitimate child. It wasn't unreasonable.
The focus of the matter now was whether the father of Lu Li's child was Old Master Shen or not.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Lu Li, waiting for her explanation. She couldn't possibly not say anything. Chen Qiang had already said so much. If her child wasn't Old Master Shen's, then Chen Qiang was insulting her and purely trying to disgust her.
If she kept silent, could it be taken that she had tacitly agreed?
Shen Xi also looked at Lu Li. She didn't know what she was planning. Chen Qiang, that person, was full of shit. He deserved to die. Should she stand out now?
Situ Zhangyou didn't expect to encounter such a good show when he came to the auction. But looking at the situation before him, Lu Li didn't intend to stand out and announce the identity of her child.
Then she probably wasn't interested in Fu Qingli and didn't want to have anything to do with him.
"Mommy." A little girl's crisp voice sounded in the auction hall.
Everyone looked in the direction of the door. Against the light, they saw a tall figure with an extremely oppressive aura. He was carrying a child in his arms as he walked towards them.
