220: Chapter 169: Help Leave 220: Chapter 169: Help Leave Fu Tingzhou’s pupils were deep, and he looked at the woman’s face with a faint smile on it.

It was as though she had a mask on, which he did not like, but her answer brought him a mont’s peace.

His hand hooked around the woman’s waist—Tang Xi’s waist was very slender, he could embrace it with one hand as if playing with a beloved object, his hand gently gliding over the woman’s waistline.

Tang Xi felt a little ticklish and tried to dodge away.

She was naturally sensitive, and the ticklish sensation made her uncomfortable, causing her to instinctively shift back, right against the man’s solid chest.

The temperature in his embrace was sowhat cool, but the palm of Fu Tingzhou’s hand was scorching hot on her waist.

Xu Rongchen pushed open the door and walked in.

Tang Xi’s cheeks reddened slightly; she wanted to co out of the man’s embrace— their current posture was indescribably intimate.

Xu Rongchen glanced at the overturned teacup on the floor and the cushion that had been splashed with tea.

Xu Rongchen naturally understood what had happened.

His lips curved into a genteel, faint smile, and he motioned for his assistant to replace the cushion before taking a seat.

“Such a good tea, what a pity.”

Fu Tingzhou, “If you like it, I’ll ask the owner here for so to give you.”

The man tilted his chin slightly, and the assistant walked over to remove the screen in front of them.

With the screen gone, the bidding situation on the first floor was clearly visible through the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

This was Tang Xi’s first visit here, and she was full of curiosity about everything.

She watched as a young woman in a white suit walked onto the stage downstairs.

She looked very elegant, and at that mont, with white gloves on, she was explaining the item in her hands—a piece of green jade bi roughly the size of an adult woman’s palm.

“This is our first item for auction today, nad ‘Qingwan’, a work of the famous sculptor Chang Hongguang, carved from top-grade Hotan green jade, with a starting bid of 5 million yuan.”

Fu Tingzhou looked at Tang Xi’s face, “Do you want it?”

Tang Xi shook her head.

She wasn’t really interested in these kinds of things.

Gradually, several more items were brought up for auction.

At first, Tang Xi watched with interest, but after so ti, she grew bored, feeling that ti was dragging on tediously.

She once again pulled out the man’s cellphone to play gas.

Suddenly, she heard Fu Tingzhou raising his bidding sign.

She raised her eyes to take a glance.

It was a calligraphy painting, and moreover…

the very one that Ji Qingtan ntioned wanting in the phone call just now.

Tang Xi pursed her lips faintly.

She verbally declined, but in reality, she was still keeping an eye out for Ji Qingtan.

It didn’t take long for the auctioned painting to be brought into the private room by the Qiūqiū staff, appearing before Tang Xi.

Those who have private rooms in Qiūqiū are definitely big shots from North City; there wouldn’t be cases of credit purchases or winning bids without paynt, so the item is delivered imdiately as soon as the hamr is final.

Fu Tingzhou handed the calligraphy painting in front of Tang Xi, “Take a look.”

Tang Xi picked it up and looked—it was indeed a master’s work, a multi-million yuan calligraphy painting.

It was a lychee painting.

Tang Xi glanced at it and then closed it, saying faintly, “I’m a layperson who doesn’t understand this.

Since it’s so expensive, it must be very nice.”

Fu Tingzhou looked at her expressionless face, his eyebrows slightly raising, and he handed her a cup of warm water.

Tang Xi sipped the water while playing the ga, taking a mouthful— there was still half a cup left, and Fu Tingzhou naturally took it and drank the rest himself.

Then ca a few more auction items.

When it ca to a set of jewelry, Fu Tingzhou, without a thought, imdiately raised his sign to bid higher.

But unexpectedly, soone else matched the bid.

The hostess announced, “10 million yuan, soone has bid 10 million yuan!”

Fu Tingzhou calmly bid again, “12 million yuan.”

A set of ruby jewelry, which had already reached its peak price at 10 million yuan.

The craftsmanship was expensive, and the designer was Shen Jianlin, a top global clothing and jewelry designer.

A set of ruby jewelry had collectible value, but the color quality of the rubies was average, and a price over 10 million was already at its peak.

However, in such a place, if soone bids higher, competition ensues.

Cheng Yunlang sat in a seat on the first floor, a hint of unwillingness in his eyes; he wanted to continue bidding, but in the end, he was still defeated by Fu Tingzhou.

Cheng Yunlang and Fu Tingzhou had known each other since they were young, but their relationship had been rather average in the early years, as Fu Tingzhou was an illegitimate child, and Old Master Fu valued bloodlines greatly.

When he learned that he had such a grandson outside, he brought him back ho.

Fu Zongheng’s feelings towards Fu Tingzhou were very indifferent.

In such a large family, without the support of the elders, it was almost impossible to survive.
