He had seen Ye Shengge many times in the past few years, so he could recognize her, butâ¦
âThereâs something wrong with her eyes.â Qiao Yanze frowned. âIs it possibleâ¦â
He recalled that Ji Shiting had lost his memory three years ago, and perhaps Ye Shengge was the same now. Otherwise, they wouldnât have let Ye Shengge show up so easily.
âWhatâs possible?â Xiao Ruilang asked.
âYou have an invitation? Give it to me,â Qiao Yanze ordered.
If it was really Ye Shengge, he would definitely capture her at all costs.
âMy face is the invitation, so I canât give it to you.â Xiao Ruilang shrugged. âDonât worry. If itâs really Sister-in-law, Iâll definitely bid for her.â
âWhat about after you win the auction?â Qiao Yanze knew that this guy didnât seem to be kind to Ye Shengge.
âSheâll be mine after I win her.â Xiao Ruilang smiled. âIâll treat her well.â
âStop dreaming.â Qiao Yanze stared at him expressionlessly. âListen, Iâll be your bodyguard and follow you in. Iâll pay for the auction, and Iâll take her away. Do you understand?â
âWhat can you do to me if I donât want to?â Xiao Ruilang said sincerely.
Qiao Yanze gritted his teeth.
He couldnât do anything to that man, and he needed him to save Ye Shengge.
âXiao Ruilang, if youâre willing to help, I can tell you everything I know.â Qiao Yanze decided to trust him this time. After all, the situation wouldnât be worse.
Xiao Ruilang looked a bit weird.
âWhat was going on? Every single one of them are starting to trust me these days. Am I glowing with justice recently?â

That night, the underground auction was held in a manor.
There werenât many guests who were qualified to participate in the auction, but all of them were rich and noble. Many of them knew each other, and they were drinking while discussing the auction items for tonight, waiting for the auction to begin.
There were all kinds of content in the underground auction. There were antiques, paintings, guns, men, and women.
There were four women waiting for the auction that night, but the most interesting one was the owner of that pair of eyes. Ye Shengge had been dealing with rich and powerful people in recent years, and many people had seen her and coveted her, so anyone who thought of Ye Shengge because of that pair of eyes was determined to get the âgoodsâ tonight.
Of course, no one thought it was the real Ye Shengge.
Xiao Ruilang heard the discussion as he walked with Qiao Yanze.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSeems like I have a lot of competitors tonight.â Xiao Ruilang clicked his tongue.
âListen, do whatever it takes,â Qiao Yanze said coldly.
âFourth Young Master, do you have that much liquid funds?â
âYou can make up for it if itâs not enough,â Qiao Yanze said. âIf I lose her, youâll be doomed.â
Xiao Ruilang curled his lips and didnât say anything.
The auction started soon. Qiao Yanzeâs seat was pretty good, but Qiao Yanze could only stand behind him.
Xiao Ruilang was satisfied. âFourth Young Master, you have to protect me.â
âShut up.â Qiao Yanze couldnât be bothered with him. His eyes were on the stage, and he didnât know when it would be his turn.
She hoped it was really Ye Shengge.
One auction item after another was sold. Halfway through the auction, the pair of eyes on the list appeared on the big screen.
