Chapter 1088 Ignore Qi Ziyue
Each of the bidders had to register first, then got a bidding paddle for the auction.Although only Gu Ning would attend the auction, Leng Shaoting and the others also registered. n.o.body could have a seat without registration, and standing in the hall wasn’t allowed.
Bidders without an invitation letter were cla.s.sified as common guests, and they could only have seats at the rear rows.
…
When Gu Ning and her friends came to register, they met Qi Ziyue and his friends.
Qi Ziyue and Tang Yaxin didn’t dare show any dislike towards Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting this time, but Ayumi Yamaguchi and Shouta Minamino were still unkind.
“Hi, Lord Leng, it’s so nice to meet you! I’m the marketing director of the Tang Organization, Qi Ziyue. I’m sorry that I didn’t realize it was you until yesterday.” Qi Ziyue greeted Leng Shaoting on his own initiative.
Leng Shaoting, however, only gave him a glance and said nothing. He remembered that Gu Ning’s master was Tang Aining, who held a grudge against the Tang family and Qi Ziyue, so he had no good impression of them.
He understood that Gu Ning was going to pay the Tang family and Qi Ziyue back.
…
Qi Ziyue felt utterly embarra.s.sed when Leng Shaoting ignored him. He didn’t expect that Leng Shaoting would directly ignore him, but even though he was mad, he didn’t vent his anger.
Tang Yaxin wanted to greet Leng Shaoting too, but gave the idea up after Leng Shaoting ignored Qi Ziyue.
If there was another man who dared to ignore Qi Ziyue, she would argue with him, but she admired Leng Shaoting, so she did nothing about it. Besides, she had also heard of Leng Shaoting’s cold character, so it wasn’t strange that Qi Ziyue was ignored.
Ayumi Yamaguchi, instead, mocked Leng Shaoting, because she wasn’t aware of his family background. “How could you be so rude? Didn’t you hear Ziyue’s greeting?”
Hearing that, Qi Ziyue was scared and interrupted Ayumi Yamaguchi at once, “Miss Yamaguchi, it’s not a big deal.”
He said it in a hurry, so it sounded as if he was criticizing her. He clearly knew that Leng Shaoting wasn’t someone that Ayumi Yamaguchi and Shouta Minamino could mess with.
Although the Minamino family was very influential in Country R, it wasn’t the most powerful family, while the Leng family was the most powerful family in this country.
Ayumi Yamaguchi was angry when Qi Ziyue didn’t side with her. “How…”
Shouta Minamino, however, realized that something wasn’t right. Not only was Qi Ziyue quite respectful of this young man, but he was also nervous when Ayumi Yamaguchi interrupted them. It all proved that this young man wasn’t an ordinary man. “Ayumi, calm down.”
Although Shouta Minamino liked Ayumi Yamaguchi and he tolerated her bad temper most of the time, it didn’t mean that he would allow her to cause trouble.
Hearing Shouta Minamino’s warning, Ayumi Yamaguchi curbed her anger.
“Lord Leng, I’m sorry. Miss Yamaguchi is a foreigner, and she doesn’t know much about the situation here. Please don’t mind it.” Qi Ziyue apologized to Leng Shaoting at once.
Leng Shaoting remained silent, and ignored him. He never liked people from Country R. Besides, from the beginning to the end, the two people from Country R kept causing them trouble.
Gu Ning said to Leng Shaoting at this time, “Let’s go now.”
“Great,” Leng Shaoting said, then left with Gu Ning.
When they walked away, Zi Beiying gave Ayumi Yamaguchi a glance of disdain and said, “Don’t think you’re superior to others, otherwise you will probably be killed without any hints.”
After that, she turned around with pride.
Even if they didn’t dare to annoy Leng Shaoting, they couldn’t afford the result if Zi Beiying was mad. Leng Shaoting couldn’t kill anybody he wanted to, but Zi Beiying could. It was super easy for a powerful munitioner to get rid of an enemy in Southeast Asia.
…
Ayumi Yamaguchi was angry when Zi Beiying said that to her face.
“Ziyue, who are they?”
Once Gu Ning and the others were gone, Shouta Minamino asked Qi Ziyue.
“Lord Leng is the eldest grandson of the Leng family in the capital, and he’s also the youngest major general in the military,” Qi Ziyue said.
“What?” Hearing that, both Ayumi Yamaguchi and Shouta Minamino were shocked.
They had heard of the number one family in the capital, and a major general was a very high level in the army. They were astonished by Leng Shaoting’s social status.
“Miss Yamaguchi, please forgive me for being a little rude just then,” Qi Ziyue said.
“It’s fine,” Shouta Minamino said. He felt lucky that Qi Ziyue had stopped Ayumi Yamaguchi in time.
Even though Shouta Minamino’s family was very influential in Country R, he knew that he shouldn’t offend the most powerful family in this country.
Ayumi Yamaguchi, at the same time, felt quite regretful. Her family wasn’t better than the Minamino family in Country R, so she absolutely had no intention to offend the Leng family.
…
A short while later, Dongfang Ziyu and Wu Shunhua came.
In the hall, all the people who were interested in jade raw materials were present.
The hall was very large and could accommodate about two thousand people.
