Husband, Spend Some Gold Coins

Xie Qi lowered his voice and apologized: “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have pinched you. I was too anxious. Can I rub it for you when we get back?”

To be honest, Xie Qi had a lot of emotional ups and downs along the way. Those bad emotions disappeared completely in one breath. Now he only remembered that Qin Yizhi vented his anger for him.

Because it felt good, so… he must make amends once they went home. He must use all his strength.

Qin Yizhi did not refuse this time and said lightly, “Yeah.”

Xie Qi felt really guilty, but he also had some slight doubts in his heart – how did Qin Yizhi recognize Xie Dai’s voice?

Xie Qi originally wanted to hold back and ask later, but the atmosphere was just right at the moment. If he didn’t ask, he might forget about it when they got back, so Xie Qi asked anyway.

Qin Yizhi answered this in a calm tone: “I confirmed the gala guest list before coming. I knew he would be here.”

Xie Qi asked humbly: “What about the voice? Actually, I didn’t even recognize it, but you did.”

It was strange to say that he was the biological son after all. He had called him several times before, but he only felt familiar and did not recognize him.

Qin Yizhi looked calm and indifferent and replied: “Because I know the details of everyone here, only he is a stranger.”

Xie Qi said: “That’s it.”

He looked at Xie Dai on the stage and couldn’t help thinking he could actually come up with 200 million for this, but was hesitant to give him 300,000. Xie Qi really didn’t know what to say.

But when he thought about it, it seemed reasonable. After all, Xie Dai was very good at saving face, otherwise he wouldn’t let Jiang Sining sign Xie Qi up for various private classes. It was not for his own son, but purely because it wouldn’t be embarrassing to show off his son’s talents.

Of course, Xie Dai could not come up with 200 million easily. In other words, it was still very difficult for him to cough up with 200 million in one go.

Although he was smiling, he was in an extremely bad mood. His original budget was only 50 million, which was actually a bit too much for him. But after getting to know everyone here, he knew everyone was a big shot. 50 million happened to be an amount that would not steal the limelight from others but could also show off his own status.

Before coming here, he warned himself not to be impulsive or to fight with these people. Sometimes he could give a little bit of a boost to make the other party happy and still show off himself – he did have ample funds, but let others win was still a great opportunity.

But before his plan was implemented, it fell apart – it wasn’t that he couldn’t calm down, he could clearly feel that the person was targeting him, the other party would say nothing when others were bidding. Only if he bid, the other party would follow closely. Xie Dai could feel that the other party was contemptuous of him, and the bidding was always in the millions. Xie Dai couldn’t help but feel anger welling up in his heart, and he suddenly lost his mind.

This overwhelming financial pressure severely dampened Xie Dai’s self-esteem and made his blood surge, forcing him to defeat the other party.

As a result, what he got now was a payment amount of more than 200 million, and he had to go back and collect it to make up the amount. This was already very embarrassing, and it was impossible to hide it from these people.

It was possible to regret the result, but he would lose face and his reputation would be ruined in the future. This would always be his stain when asking people to cooperate with him.

Xie Dai couldn’t let this happen to him. So, this money must still be given.

After the auction ended, he heard whispers in his ears:

“It’s so funny. It cost more than 100 million, right? Why is he so serious?”

“What do you know? He must have spent so much money because he loves charity.”

“I don’t know how many hands these scraps have passed through. Spending 100 to 200 million to buy them is a fool’s errand.”

“Wasn’t it the one from the Qin family who was bidding against him just now? This is a bit interesting. He is so rich, but he can’t win against the nouveau riche from the countryside, hahaha.”

“The nouveau riche is still stupidly happy. He overpowered the other party. Can’t you see that he did it on purpose?”

“It’s good, but I look down on these outsiders who come to City H all the time. Don’t they know their place?”

The voices of discussion were deliberately amplified to ensure that Xie Dai could hear them.

The complacency that Xie Dai had just felt when he was overwhelmed immediately dissipated, and the blood all over his body began to freeze inch by inch. After they told him, Xie Dai realized how much he had spent. After a little mental calculation, he found that it had exceeded the original budget. Two or three times more! Maybe much more.

Xie Dai was so distraught that his face looked like he had knocked over a paint tray, it was full of color. Moreover, he vaguely got an incredible message from these people’s words – the person bidding against him seemed to be… from the Qin Group?

This made Xie Dai’s heart sink. He had attended this charity party with the intention of hugging the Qin family’s golden thigh. He knew that two people from the Qin family would come over, one was Qin Lingyun, the current leader, and the other was Qin Yizhi. Qin Yizhi was originally the heir, but had been silent for more than a year for unknown reasons.

It was said that the Qin family attached great importance to the order of eldest son and grandson. Generally, only the eldest son who inherited the family business was the legitimate heir. They attached great importance to rules and had always been like this. Therefore, Qin Yizhi had many supporters and his power was also great. Although Qin Lingyun was also from the same family, he was born from the third wife. His abilities were outstanding, but they were far from the traditional rules.

It seemed that Qin Yizhi was actually the better choice, being the orthodox heir after all. However, the old man of the Qin family had a very ambiguous attitude toward him and was indifferent. Meanwhile, Qin Lingyun had been repeatedly reused and had more and more power. The Qin Group was also replaced by his own people in a drastic move. The old man Qin also turned a blind eye and allowed him to participate in high-level meetings representing the Qin family.
