Chapter 114: Auction them off

~7 min read 1,321 words

A good while after Rong Ci returned to the private room, Ren Jifeng finally came back.

They had finished eating, so they left the hotel.

Ren Jifeng went back to his company to prepare materials, while Rong Ci and Yu Moxun returned to Chang Mo.

After 3:00 PM, He Zhangbai arrived at Chang Mo at almost the same time as Ren Jifeng.

They had eaten together before during the Xundu self-driving vehicle test.

Seeing him now, Ren Jifeng greeted him: "Mr. He has also decided to cooperate with Chang Mo?"

"Yes. Does that mean Mr. Ren is also ready to sign the contract?"

"That's right."

He Zhangbai was actually a bit surprised.

After all, back at the banquet, Yu Moxun had rejected Ren Jifeng without any hesitation.

He hadn't expected that in the end, they would actually cooperate.

He just didn't know...

At this moment, Rong Ci and Yu Moxun came to the meeting room.

Although Yu Moxun didn't look favorably upon either He Zhangbai or Ren Jifeng.

It was very clear that He Zhangbai's attitude toward Rong Ci was much better than Ren Jifeng's.

Therefore, when discussing matters, Yu Moxun let Rong Ci talk with He Zhangbai.

He handled Ren Jifeng's affairs himself.

Ren Jifeng had no objections to this arrangement.

But He Zhangbai...

He Zhangbai just smiled and said: "Then I'll leave it to Miss Rong."

Rong Ci: "Mr. He is too kind, please this way."

After sitting down, Rong Ci began to chat with the technical staff from He Zhangbai's side.

By the time they finished working, it was dark outside.

Leaving the meeting room, He Zhangbai said: "Miss Rong, shall we grab a bite to eat?"

Rong Ci said: "I have something else to do here, let me ask Moxun—"

At this moment, Yu Moxun happened to come out of the meeting room and took over: "Eat? Sure." Then he said to Rong Ci: "Xiao Ci, go do what you need to do, leave this to me."

Rong Ci nodded, greeted He Zhangbai, ignored Ren Jifeng who was looking at her, and turned to leave.

He Zhangbai: "..."

Yu Moxun looked at Ren Jifeng and said: "Mr. He wants to treat us to dinner, does Mr. Ren want to join?"

Ren Jifeng: "Let's go together."

After Rong Ci left Chang Mo, she returned to the Rong family home.

Her purpose in returning to the Rong family this time was to discuss matters with Rong Changsheng.

Although there were only two projects that Chang Mo was busily preparing, each project was divided into several parts to be outsourced.

She had specifically kept one of these outsourced tasks, intending to hand it over to her uncle, Rong Changsheng, to do.

After Rong Changsheng heard her out, he was naturally tempted.

"Won't Moxun have any objections?"

"No, I've already discussed it with him."

"Good." Rong Changsheng said, then added: "But I don't have much liquid capital left, I'm afraid..."

"I have over 100 million here," Rong Ci said. "If it's not enough, let's auction off the two gifts Feng Tingshen gave for Grandma's birthday last time."

By the time of Grandma Rong's birthday, the two projects currently underway were basically already settled.

She had taken those two gifts away at the time because she had already thought of their use.

Rong Ci and Feng Tingshen were going to divorce anyway; he wouldn't have any objections to her auctioning off things he had given.

It's just that...

"Feng Tingshen has wide connections. If we really auction off the two gifts he gave, if he finds out, won't he..."

"He won't mind."

Seeing her speak so definitively, Rong Changsheng felt relieved.

She had over 100 million here, and those two gifts were estimated to be worth around 300 million at auction. Plus, Rong Changsheng had some as well, so 500 million should be enough.

If it wasn't enough...

Rong Ci looked at the villa across the way.

The next afternoon, Rong Changsheng found an opportunity to send the items to an auction house.

Not long after, Feng Tingshen received a call from the auction house.

After receiving the news, his expression didn't change, and he said: "Okay, I understand."

The other side asked: "Do you need us to hold these two items for you?"

Feng Tingshen said: "No need."

The other side didn't dare to disturb him further and quickly hung up the phone.

Lin Wu, who was dining beside him, asked: "Is there something wrong at the company?"

Feng Tingshen put his phone back in his pocket and said: "No, it was a call from the auction house."

Lin Wu smiled and was about to speak when Feng Jingxin interjected: "What is an auction house?"

Feng Tingshen held his knife and fork, cut a piece of meat, and said: "A place to auction off treasures."

"Auction treasures? What kind of treasures? Is it fun?"

Lin Wu smiled: "It's quite fun, has Xin Xin never been?"

Feng Jingxin shook her head: "No."

She asked again: "Are there going to be a lot of treasures inside?"

Feng Tingshen: "Yes."

"Then I also want to go see what that auction house is like!"

Lin Wu said: "But the things inside might not necessarily be what you like, you know."

"Is that so..."

Hearing this, Feng Jingxin immediately lost interest.

Feng Tingshen said: "You can go take a look and help hold up the paddle."

"Hold up the paddle?"

"Mm."

Feng Tingshen put down his knife and fork, picked up her tablet, and explained things about auctions to her.

Feng Jingxin watched for a while, felt that holding up the paddle was fun, and immediately became interested: "Then I want to play, Dad, will you take me to play?"

"Okay, next time I have time, I'll take you and we can auction off whatever you like."

"Okay!"

Lin Wu smiled and didn't interject again.

The next day.

Ren Jifeng arrived at Xundu early in the morning.

When he arrived at Xundu, Lin Wu and Feng Tingshen were both there.

Seeing Lin Wu, Ren Jifeng paused: "Miss Lin is here too?"

"I'm still following up on the project I led."

Ren Jifeng smiled: "I see."

He had thought that after her family took over the new project at the Feng Group, she would go back to help her family.

Feng Tingshen: "Mr. Ren, please sit."

Ren Jifeng looked at Feng Tingshen, remembering the scene from two days ago at the hotel where he was holding Rong Ci, and he paused before sitting down.

He temporarily put aside personal matters and began chatting with Feng Tingshen about work.

After Lin Wu listened for a while, because she had other things to do, she left first.

However, an hour later, she came back up to rest and drink some coffee specially brewed for her by Feng Tingshen's secretary.

Feng Tingshen and Ren Jifeng hadn't finished chatting when Feng Tingshen received a call.

Feng Tingshen greeted Ren Jifeng, then got up and left to take the call.

Watching his retreating back, and looking at Lin Wu, Ren Jifeng remembered that scene of Feng Tingshen holding Rong Ci again...

"Does Mr. Ren have something he wants to say to me?"

Ren Jifeng's hesitant appearance was quite obvious.

Ren Jifeng shook his head: "I just feel that Mr. Feng is very good to you."

He hadn't figured out what that scene was about, and bringing it up rashly didn't seem right.

He thought about it and decided it was better not to say anything.

Furthermore, whether it was Feng Tingshen specifically picking up the shelved project at Xundu to let her improve herself, or him diligently introducing connections for her family, or opening a project for her at the Feng Group...

Feng Tingshen's kindness to her was truly too numerous to count.

He saw it all.

He felt that if it were him, he really couldn't be that good to her.
