After the auction ended, the customers who had won their items could go to the back to get their own items. The Tao siblings didn’t buy anything and just left.
However, Tao Yue couldn’t leave. She had to pay for what she bidded. Moreover, it was a charity auction, she couldn’t go back on her word. She did not have that much money and did not dare to ask Grandpa Tao for reimbursement. Hence, she wanted Zhuang Che to buy it. Zhuang Che had given her many things in the past, so it should not be a problem this time.
“Brother All Che, 1 bid for a bracelet. Do you think it looks good?”Tao Yue asked.
Zhuang Che was looking for Tan Rou. They were sitting together just a moment ago, but she had disappeared in the blink of an eye. “Yes,” he answered perfunctorily.
Tao Yue knew that Zhuang Che was not looking at her, but it did not matter. As long as Zhuang Che bought the bracelet, it would be fine. “Brother Ah Che, the New Year is coming soon. 1 want this bracelet as a New Year gift.”
Zhuang Che understood Tao Yue’s intentions. He turned around and smiled. “If you want a new bracelet, then buy it. I think this jade bracelet is excellent too. You should buy it.”
Tao Yue was delighted. “Thank you, Brother Ah Che.”
“Why are you thanking me?” Zhuang Che asked nonchalantly. “Didn’t you auction it off yourself? Hurry up and pay. If you don’t pay, you’ll be breaking your promise. You won’t be able to enter this Auction House in the future. Not only that, you won’t be able to enter any of the auctions in the future.”
Tao Yue’s face turned ugly. “Brother All Che, are you asking me to buy this bracelet myself?” she asked.
Zhuang Che found it funny. “You wanted this bracelet. If you don’t want to buy it, do you expect me to buy it for you?”
“I…” Tao Yue bit her lip and said honestly, “I don’t have that much money on hand right now.””
“You don’t have money, but you still insist on coming to the auction? What did you tell me when 1 came?” Zhuang Che said mercilessly. “You said that there was something you really wanted at the auction, so I brought you here. In the end, you can’t even take out more than a million yuan. Then how did you have the guts to come to the auction?”
Tao Yue didn’t want to buy anything at the auction. She just didn’t want Tan Rou to be in the limelight.
“Just treat it as me asking for a loan!” Tao Yue gritted her teeth. “I’ll return it to you as soon as possible.”
Zhuang Che relented. “You were the one who borrowed the money from me. It’s only right that you return it. Don’t make it seem like I owe you money.”
“Brother All Che, you’ve changed. You never treated me like this before.” Tao Yue said sadly.
“You used to be the eldest daughter of the Tao family. Are you still the same now?” Zhuang Che smiled and asked, “You should think about how to get the Tao family to give you more of their assets. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get anything in the future.”
Zhuang Che had to think twice. If he couldn’t get Tan Rou, he could choose Tao Yue. It would be good for him if Tao Yue got a lot of assets. But now, Zhuang Che only wanted to get Tan Rou.
“I know!” Tao Yue said angrily.
Tan Rou and Tao Zhi were walking not far from Tao Yue. However, they were standing in a secluded corner so Tao Yue and Zhuang Che did not notice them. “Is Tao Yue in such a hurry to get married?” Tan Rou shook her head and said, “I didn’t want her to come today. She went looking for Zhuang Che. Now, she’s still here arguing with Zhuang Che. She probably has her eyes on Zhuang Che.”
Tao Zhi did not like Zhuang Che very much. Furthermore, Zhuang Che had a bad reputation in the industry. “Zhuang Che is not a good person. He doesn’t have much ability and he is very evil.”
“As long as the Second Cousin likes him.” Tan Rou said, “You can tell Second Uncle and Second Aunt about this and get their opinion.”
“There’s no need to say it so early.” Tao Zhi looked at Zhuang Che’s disdainful expression and knew that Zhuang Che did not like Tao Yue. “Wait until they have some practical progress. If we tell them now, they might say that we’re ruining their family relationship.”
“Don’t bother about her.” Tan Rou said coldly, “Since Zhuang Che brought her here, he can definitely send her back. Let’s go first. Mom just sent a message urging us to go back.”
“Sure.” Tao Zhi took out his car keys and asked, “Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something else?”
“No need, I’ve eaten enough.” Tan Rou said..
