Outside the outskirts of Yan Jing, a rather unremarkable property market was the home of the auction house.

It could only be said that the so-called Ming De Auction House had spent a lot of time and effort to conceal this from Ye Xiao.

"Master Ye, you're finally here. The old tutor has some urgent matters to attend to. I'll accompany you to the auction this time."

The moment the car stopped, Su Peng hurriedly opened the car door and walked over.

He was Old Man Su's second son and had been doing business all year round. He had a market capitalization of nearly 10 billion. In the business world of Yan Jing, he was considered a great man and had quite a reputation.

But today, he was being so polite, it made all those people around him look at Ye Chen in disbelief.

"Ye Chen, long time no see."

Beside Su Peng, Su Xue'er, who was already bored to death, jumped out happily, stuck out her tongue playfully, and greeted Ye Chen.

This time, knowing that Su Peng was out to meet Ye Chen, he seemed to be alive. The young girl had spent a lot of time and effort to act like a spoiled child before her grandfather, which was why she was allowed to come out.

"Xue'er, don't be rude."

Su Peng could not help but scold his niece when he saw that she was not only calling him by his first name, but also grabbing onto the corner of Ye Chen's shirt.

After all, the current Ye Chen's position in the Su Family was only second to the old man.

"No worries, just let her be like this. Also, tell me about the situation here."

Ye Chen gently stroked the black hair on Su Xue'er's forehead. She had also leaned her body towards him. Ye Chen had a good impression of this innocent, cute little girl who had such a short temper.

However, the youth could not help but furrow his brows when he felt the looks and doubting gazes that surrounded him.

"Isn't this CEO Su? "How rare, I actually bumped into you here today."

Just as the two of them were about to enter your building, a rather sinister voice was transmitted over.

Looking back, he saw a pot-bellied fatty holding a fiery hot lady beside him with one hand and calling out to him with the other.

That arrogant and proud look of his made Ye Chen understand that this fatty's status was even higher than Su Peng's.

"New Source Corporation's Boss Lin, I didn't expect him to come as well?"

"The 100 billion dollar business magnate that recently went public in Hong Kong? I heard that they even received quite a bit of funding from the government departments, with quite a bit of history behind them! "

"Their Lin Family can be said to have many talents. As expected of a large clan in Yan Jing …"

The waves of exclamations made Ye Chen even more clear about the origin of this pot-bellied man.

However, he immediately recalled the incident with Chu Yuling.

Towards the arrogant Lin Clan that relied on their strength to bully others, they did not have the slightest bit of good will towards them.

"CEO Su, have you considered about the matter of buying the Imperial Source Pavilion last time? That group of villas, did we already offer the highest price? "

"This …"

When this matter was brought up, Su Peng's face went into an intense change.

Fortunately, he noticed that the youth beside him did not have much of a reaction. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

Their Su Clan could not offend the Lin Clan, and even more so, they could not offend Master Ye.

"Since the villa has already been gifted to you, I hope Boss Lin understands. It's unlikely that you'll be able to purchase it."

"Gift? Who would be worthy of such a generous gift from your Su Family? "

That Boss Lin's reply was already filled with anger. How could he just simply watch as the villa he had obtained flew away?

The location of the Imperial Source Pavilion could be said to be the prime location for Yan Jing's development. It was also the reason why their Lin Family had always coveted it.

"Since CEO Su is so bold, then I won't say anymore. Next time, when I have time, I will personally pay a visit to see who exactly is the sage who dared to snatch something from me, Lin Yutian! "Let's go!"

Director Lin gave a cold humph and glared at Su Peng. As for Ye Chen, he completely ignored him and stepped into the market ahead of Su Peng.

Looking at the scene of the ten bodyguards in black starting the fight, no one dared to approach them.

"Master Ye, let's go in. That person is Lin Clan's Boss Lin. He can be considered an old rival of our Su Clan. There are some words that should not be taken to heart."

He, who had been in the shopping mall for a long time, naturally had some self-control and a normal look on his face. However, Ye Chen could still feel the helplessness and sadness in his voice.

"That fatty is really despicable. He even came to our Su Clan to cause trouble with Grandfather before. If there's a chance, you have to help us vent our anger!"

Beside Ye Chen, Su Xue'er was clenching her fist tightly, looking extremely angry. It seemed that she did not have a good impression of this Boss Lin.

"Don't worry, Xue'er. If he dares to come, I'll definitely deal with him."

Ye Chen smiled, but what Su Peng thought was a joke made Su Xue'er smile like a flower.

After all, the current Ye Chen looked quite far away compared to the Chairman Lin in the business world.

When Ye Chen and Xia Xinyan arrived at the auction house, it was already packed full.

The two floors of the auction house, which was big enough to accommodate a thousand people, was bustling with noise and excitement.

After Su Peng showed his VIP card, Ye Chen and Su Li were led to a private room on the second floor by the maid.

Not only was he able to see far and wide, he was also able to look down at a much better environment than the crowded floor.

"Master Ye, I heard that the Sky Mountain Qi Snow Lotus will appear in this time's auction. Please verify whether it is real or fake. Also, if master has anything else you like, our Su family will also auction it off."

Su Peng personally poured a cup of tea for Ye Chen as he explained.

Ye Chen slightly nodded, and without saying anything, he turned his head to look at the center of the auction area.

Ye Chen would never be able to keep up with a man of his word. Since he had promised Old Man Su, Ye Chen would definitely get this Qi Snow Lotus.

Su Xue'er was also extremely obedient. She quietly sat beside Ye Chen, observing the surroundings with great interest. Everything here seemed to have attracted her interest.

Soon, the grand auction that was being held by the Ming De Auction House started. One item after another was brought up, and the beautiful host under the stage passionately introduced the items that were being auctioned.

"This auction item was left behind from the ruins of a previous dynasty, it is called the Dragon-Breaking Blade, and was created by the craftsman master from the previous dynasty, Li Jian. Even today, it is as sharp as mud, and used as a collection item or as a weapon, it is still a great treasure …"

The host was holding a purple and black sandalwood box in his hands. His tempting voice spread throughout the entire venue.

It was unknown whether the burning gazes of the crowd were on the treasured blade in the wooden box or the perfect figure in the fiery-red cheongsam. It must be said that with this proud figure and mature lady's demeanor, she was indeed able to attract a great amount of attention.

"The starting price is 100,000, begin the bidding!"

"I bid two hundred thousand!"

"Raise the bid by three hundred thousand!"

"Five hundred thousand!"

"..."

The sounds of bidding and bidding rose one after another, causing the previous treasured blade that she spoke of to be raised to the value of a million.

"Master Ye, we..."

Seeing Ye Chen's eyes sweeping across the stage, Su Peng, who was standing beside him, thought that he had taken a fancy to something.

After all, Old Man Su had only met this young Master Ye at the antique street, which also showed how much Ye Chen liked antiques.

"It's just a pile of junk. Just looking at it is enough."

Ye Chen casually waved his hand, but when he was ready to look away, his eyes landed on an unremarkable piece of jade on the stage. Even from a few dozen meters away, Ye Chen could still see everything clearly.

This jade was not even the size of a fist and it looked very bumpy. If an ordinary person were to look at it from a close distance, the impurities on the jade were very obvious. Aside from the faint purple color on the tip, there was nothing special about it.

"Take that piece of jade and I'll use it."

A hint of happiness flashed through the youth's eyes as he instructed …
