A few days later, Xu Rongfei's matter gradually calmed down, and only a few people were still secretly waiting to see the joke.
Si Yingxia also worked harder than before. He studied hard, practiced ball, and honed his Taekwondo skills day and night, as if he wanted to become the best to prove to Concubine Xu Rong.
At noon on Friday, Chen Fan was thinking about whether to go back to Sishui County this week. He has been away from home for more than half a month, and he has not seen his father or his childhood playmates since he was reborn.
At this time, his cell phone rang. It was Wei Ziqing, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Hello, Mr. Chen? There is an antique auction tonight? Do you want to participate?" Chen Fan was stunned when he heard this.
"Well, this auction is actually a self-service reception. The main purpose is for everyone to communicate with each other and expand contacts. Most of the antiques auctioned are also a bit mysterious, similar to the famous cursed diamonds like the Hope Blue Diamond." Wei Ziqing said with a hint of emotion. With a hint of respect.
"And it is said that there is also a mysterious magic weapon auction. I think Mr. Chen, since he is a Taoist, should be interested in this aspect."
After Mr. Wei explained to her, she finally knew what kind of big shot she was facing.
"Magical weapon?" Chen Fan frowned.
Is it the 'magic weapon' of the flying sword magic weapon that he understood?
"Yes, I heard that this magic weapon has magical effects on stabilizing the home, regulating feng shui, attracting good fortune and warding off evil, and even protecting the owner. Of course, no one knows whether it is true or not." Wei Ziqing explained patiently.
"Well, I am indeed somewhat interested in what you said." Chen Fan said.
"Okay, then I will pick you up tonight?" Wei Ziqing said cautiously.
"No need." Chen Fan shook his head.
He knew Wei Ziqing's beauty. If he drove a luxury car and waited for him at the school gate, it would probably spread throughout the school before tomorrow, saying that he was in love with Chen Fan!
He was already in the limelight at the New Year's Party, and he didn't want to be the center of attention again.
"Tell me your address and I'll take a taxi there."
"Okay, just tell me your name when you arrive." Wei Ziqing nodded.
After making the call, Jiang Tanqiu asked doubtfully on the other side: "Who is it?"
"Nothing, a friend invited me to play in the evening." Chen Fan replied. At the same time, he called Sister Ying and asked her for leave. Sister Ying agreed very reasonably.
After the afternoon class, Chen Fan patted his butt and left.
After he left, Chang Wen sneered:
"Yingxia, don't be sad for that woman. She would rather choose a bad guy than you. This only proves that she is blind."
"I asked my uncle for three invitations to tonight's antique auction reception. Xingyu and I will go with you to relax."
Ji Xingyu on the opposite side quickly said:
"Boss Si, I've heard about this cocktail party too."
"It's a high-end party held by the big company in Chuzhou, Fangsheng International. If you don't have a net worth of more than 50 million, you can't get a ticket. And it is said that there are very mysterious antiques for sale on the spot. It would be good for us to go and learn more."
"That's right, if it weren't for my uncle's great reputation, he wouldn't have asked for three invitations. A person like Chen Fan would never have been to such a high-end cocktail party in his life." Chang Wen smiled proudly.
Si Yingxia nodded.
After studying hard recently, he has gradually regained his confidence in himself, and now he really needs to relax.
....
The reception was held in a high-end club called 'Qianlong Villa' next to Yunwu Mountain in Chuzhou. It was far away in the suburbs and the environment was very quiet.
After Chen Fan went home and changed his clothes, he took a taxi to Qianlong Villa and saw many luxury cars parked in the square.
BMW and Audi are only the lowest grade, and Daben can only be considered mid-range. There are many luxury sports cars such as Lamborghini and Porsche. He even saw a Rolls-Royce Phantom with a license plate number of 8 and 6. The market price of this car in 2007 was over 6 million, and there were only a few of them in Chuzhou.
"It seems that there are many rich people in Chuzhou." He thought to himself.
After informing the doorman of Wei Ziqing's name, the guests invited him in respectfully.
The interior decoration of Qianlong Villa is very luxurious, with originality everywhere. It is obviously of high quality in Chuzhou. Looking around, the hall was brightly lit and filled with well-dressed upper-class figures.
There are also many children of the same age as Chen Fan, who may have learned a lot from their parents. Everyone basically knows each other and has formed a small circle, and they are communicating enthusiastically.
Chen Fan, who ran in wearing casual clothes, seemed to be the only one of his kind, and attracted a lot of people's attention.
Since the reception was a self-service format, Chen Fan saw that the auction hadn't started yet, and Wei Ziqing didn't seem to be there either.
He simply ran to the buffet, picked up a plate, and looked for food on his own. While he was poisoning a huge Australian lobster, a surprising voice suddenly came from beside him:
"Chen Fan?"
Such a soft and waxy voice seems to be unique to this family.
Chen Fan turned around and looked at the surprised Concubine Xu Rong, and couldn't help but smile:
"What, you can come but I can't?"
Seeing Chen Fan, Concubine Xu Rong thought of the scene at the New Year's Eve Party and couldn't help but blush slightly. Quickly change the topic:
"I followed Mengmeng in. It is said that the things being auctioned in this auction are very interesting and there are many magical auction items, so we came over to take a look."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Chen Fan with big eyes: "Brother Chen Fan, who are you here with? Are you also planning to bid?"
"Hmph, with the little money he has, let alone bidding, I'm afraid he can't even afford this Australian lobster." Jiang Churan, with a frosty look on his face, walked over quickly and looked at Chen Fan with wary eyes.
Look at this elegant and proud girl.
Chen Fan's smile faded and he said calmly: "Of course you're right, I really don't have the money to participate in the auction, I'm just here to make ends meet. Not to mention, the food in this club is very good, and there are many delicious desserts. , do you want to try it?"
"Really?" Xu Rongfei pursed her lips and snickered, seeming a little moved.
Seeing Chen Fan and Xu Rongfei talking and laughing, Jiang Churan snorted coldly, and the warning in his eyes became stronger.
...
Several girls not far away gathered together and looked here.
"Is that Concubine's friend? Why don't you call me over to introduce him?"
The oldest among them, the beautiful woman wearing a black low-cut evening dress and a lady's bun said strangely.
"That boy looks strange. Concubine is so excited to see him. Could it be that he is her boyfriend?"
"You don't look very good either. Is your family very rich?"
These girls have grown up playing together with Xu Rongfei and Jiang Churan, and it is rare for them to get together today. As a result, Concubine Xu Rong abandoned them immediately after seeing Chen Fan. How could they not be confused.
Next to her, Zhang Yumeng, who was wearing a brand-name suit, sneered: "That bullshit boyfriend, a kid from a small county town who is relatively good at fighting. He is still working in a bar in the university town to earn tuition."
After saying that, he said sourly: "I don't know why the concubine fell in love with him, but now she is fascinated by that boy."
"Is he really your boyfriend?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Xu Rongfei was well-known in the circle for her high vision, but she didn't expect to choose such an ordinary young man who was mediocre in all aspects. It was really shocking.
Some people were already shaking their heads and sighing.
"Fei Fei is still young. If you are deceived by such a person, you will not end well in the future."
The wealth of these girls is at least tens of millions. Several of them have been sent abroad to study since junior high school and have only recently returned to China. How could they have the same vision as a wage earner?
The woman in the low-cut evening dress frowned and said, "As the eldest sister in the circle, I can persuade her as someone who has been there."
"You can just play with this kind of kid when you were in high school, but you must not have real feelings. Your family background and circle determine that it is too difficult for you to be together, and he will drag you down."
The girls were silent after hearing this.
This woman's name is Han Yun. She is the oldest in the circle and has graduated from college. She once liked a boy in high school, and her family was not good, so she had a lot of trouble with her family. As a result, after college, the boy quarreled with her and broke up, and then ran away with a girl from Yanjing. Since then, he has become a negative teaching material in the circle.
At this time, outside Qianlong Villa, a jeep with military plates stopped at the door, and a tough young man in casual clothes stepped out.
"Concubine Xu Rong, are you sure you are coming tonight?"
He turned to ask his companions.
"Don't worry, Brother Chu, the news about Lou Xiaoxiao is not wrong." The crew-cut young man next to him said.
"Okay, let's go in." The tough young man was silent for a moment and said decisively.
