"Qiao Shenyu, I beg you to let me go."

"Do you have to leave?"

"Yes sir!"

"Lin Nuo, are you sure you don't want to think about it?"

"No, I'm too tired …"

In the quiet auction, Qiao Shenyu's gaze landed on the woman who was bidding against him, and his consciousness slowly returned.

It had been eight years, and she had actually returned to the Gaangting City.

Didn't he say that he would never return to his grief even if he died of old age?

The auctioneer's voice rang: "Five million going once …"

"Increase the price." Qiao Shenyu instructed the person beside him, and looked at the figure not far away again.

Just as the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Gu Zhanchen raised his board and said, "8 million."

Immediately, Lin Nuo who was at the side looked over.

Their eyes met, one of them lightly angry while the other was filled with anticipation.

But then, Lin Nuo's gaze turned and left, before the auctioneer could even ask, she raised her board again: "18 million."

When this price was called out, everyone in the hall sucked in a breath of cold air. Aside from being surprised, most of the people who looked at him felt pity for him.

To dare to challenge her in Gaangting City, this woman was most likely just arrived, and didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was.

Gu Zhanchen tapped Qiao Shenyu's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "This woman probably doesn't have any feelings for you yet, if not, there's no reason."

As he finished speaking, he clearly saw the corners of Qiao Shenyu's mouth slightly raised.

In this charity auction, Qiao Shenyu donated his and Lin Nuo's wedding ring. Back then, the market price was only slightly more than a million, but now it was raised to almost twenty million.

Qiao Shenyu wanted his friend to help him win the bid, but who knew that Lin Nuo would appear out of nowhere?

Was it too late?

Gu Zhanchen's words made Qiao Shenyu feel good, and he stopped bidding.

In the end, Lin Nuo paid a sky-high price of eighteen million for the two wedding rings. With her goal achieved, the rest of the auction seemed rather boring. She picked up her phone and casually browsed through the pages until the end of the auction.

The ring had already been packed by the staff member. Lin Nuo went to the backstage to pay the bill and then left with her spoils of war. However, she didn't want to be stopped in the hall outside the auction.

Qiao Shenyu frowned, with a deeper meaning, he stared at Lin Nuo who was standing in front of him.

A man's face, as if caressed by God, is exquisite and mean, a typical hard to get along with face.

"What does Director Qiao mean by this?" Lin Nuo was puzzled, could it be that she wanted to charge at him at such a price, making him lose face, making him want to settle the score with her?

"If it's for that pair of rings, then I am truly sorry, but the things that I donated did not have any logic to be auctioned back. Director Qiao, do you think so?"

Who didn't know that Young Master Qiao and the only son of the Gu family were brothers who grew up wearing the same pants? Gu Zhanchen coming out to bid for Qiao Shenyu's ring, his intentions were obvious.

Qiao Shenyu raised his eyebrows. "You saw me raise my hand?"

The donor did not bid, so it was not against the rules.

"Since that's the case, what does Director Qiao want to do by stopping me?" Lin Nuo smiled, he was confident and calm.

It was said that this pair of rings was a keepsake for Qiao Shenyu and his ex-wife to marry each other.

Qiao Shenyu stared at the woman's delicate face with a smile that was not a smile, and spoke with a voice as thin as a string: "Is this ring very important to you?"

"Acting on behalf of others is naturally very important to those who need it." Lin Nuo replied in a perfunctory manner, "If there is nothing else, I will not disturb Director Qiao."

She walked away, her voice flat, held back by the man.

Lin Nuo cast a glance at the hand on her arm, and smiled sweetly: "Director Qiao, do you always display such intimacy towards every girl that you've met for the first time?"

She had heard that Qiao Shenyu's fiancee was very valiant and it would be better not to offend his.

"Meet you for the first time?" Qiao Shenyu squinted his eyes dangerously, then revealed a smile: "You want to play with me?"

They had slept together for two years and even said that they would meet for the first time.
