Chapter 174: Chapter 174: The auction

When she returned to her room, she took out her phone and saw that there were dozens of missed calls. Most of them were from Si Zhanbei. Of course, there were also Liu Rui’s.
Sheng Fenghua held her forehead, not knowing what to say.
She threw her phone away and lay on the bed. She thought about how she could make Si Zhanbei feel at ease with her. Otherwise, if he behaved like this every time she went to a place in the future, she would really be unable to bear it.
This would not only trouble others, but also make her feel that she had no freedom. It seemed that she had to find a time to have a good talk with Si Zhanbei.
In the evening, Liu Rui came early and invited Sheng Fenghua for dinner. After dinner, he accompanied Sheng Fenghua to the night market before sending her back to the hotel. He also told her that he would pick her up the next day at the venue.
The next morning, Liu Rui came as expected. After the two of them had breakfast, they drove to the venue.
However, when Sheng Fenghua got out of the car and walked to the entrance of the venue, she saw a familiar person.
When she saw Jun Nianchen and thought of what Si Zhanbei had said, Sheng Fenghua stopped in her tracks and was hesitating whether she should go forward. Jun Nianchen had already seen her and was walking towards her.
“Fenghua, you’re here? ” Jun nianchen stood in front of Sheng Fenghua with a smile on his face. He was originally a gentle person, and this smile made people feel warm to their bones.
“Nianchen, you’re here too. ” Sheng Fenghua looked at the smiling Jun Nianchen and recalled Si Zhanbei’s words. She could not combine him with a scheming person.
“Yeah. I wanted to come with you, but you took the train first. ”
“It’s my first time in the North City. I wanted to take a look around, so I came early. ”
Sheng Fenghua explained with a smile. Then, seeing that many people were looking at them, she said, “let’s go in first. ”
“Okay! ”
Jun nianchen nodded and walked to the venue with Sheng Fenghua.
Liu Rui saw that the two of them were relatively close, so he quietly stood between them.
Jun Nianchen turned to look at Liu Rui and frowned slightly. He could sense Liu Rui’s hostility towards him, so he asked Sheng Fenghua, “Fenghua, who is this? ”
“He is Liu Rui, my husband’s friend. ”
“Oh, so it’s Mr. Liu. ”
Jun Nianchen looked at Liu Rui and nodded, “I am Jun Nianchen, Fenghua’s friend. ”
“Liu Rui, Fenghua is my sister-in-law. ” Liu Rui deliberately emphasized the word ‘sister-in-law’ , so that Jun Nianchen finally understood where his hostility came from. His eyes could not help but flash.
The three of them entered the venue and were pushed to the front row.
Sheng Fenghua sat down and began to size up the entire venue. The venue was relatively large and could accommodate five to six hundred people.
After sweeping around, when Sheng Fenghua saw that Ji Jinglin was also there, she could not help but raise her eyebrows. It seemed that he was not only here to deal with the painkillers incident. He should have also taken a fancy to an item in the auction, but she did not know what it would be?
As she was thinking, Jun Nianchen handed her something and said, “look, this is today’s auction item. ”
Sheng Fenghua took it and looked at it. It was indeed a booklet made of all the auction items for today.
There were more than a hundred auction items, most of which were ancient knowledge and collectibles. As a result, the Ginseng that she was holding seemed to be unique.
At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Sheng Fenghua’s mind. Ji Jinglin couldn’t be coming for her GINSENG, right?
If that was the case, she had to make him pay. Otherwise, it would be a waste of his pretense and deception.
