Shao Qing raised her head and saw that the auction item was a ruby necklace. She had been so focused on her imagination that she had not heard the introduction of the auctioneer at all.
She quietly opened the booklet in her hand and found that this ruby necklace was the last item today and also the highlight of this auction.
There were 16 oval pigeon blood rubies in Myanmar on the gorgeous necklace, and each rubies was inlaid with diamonds as decoration, which looked luxurious.
Others were also bidding, and Ji Zisheng followed closely behind.
When he calmly offered a price of 30 million and the auctioneer dropped the hammer, the etiquette lady directly handed the necklace to Ji Zisheng with a tray.
He got up and took the necklace. He looked at Shao Qing beside him with a smile in his eyes and said, "I told you that I would give you whatever you like. What do you think? I didn't let you down, did I?"
The others in the surroundings came to a sudden understanding.
No wonder Mr. Ji insisted on buying this necklace. It turned out that he wanted to please the person he loved.
Ji Zisheng put the necklace on Shao Qing and touched her skin with his slender fingers with warmth.
Then he gave Shao Qing a quick kiss but full of love. The affection in his eyes was so sincere that everyone believed it.
Except for Shao Qing.
She was extremely clear that this was just an act, and it needed acting skills.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were shining with tears. She said excitedly, "I love you, Zisheng."
The two of them hugged each other and whispered under everyone's envious applause and gazes.
Shao Qing said, "You should be an actor. I promise you'll be an award-winning actor."
Ji Zisheng replied, "Likewise."
By the end of the auction, the two of them were so close to each other that the others were envious of them.
On the way back, Shao Qing opened the window a little, and the breeze blew in and hit her on the shoulder.
"Aren't you cold?" Ji Zisheng tilted his head to look at her, his eyes unconsciously sweeping over her slender and thin shoulders, neck, and arms.
She leaned back and said lazily, "A little, but it's very comfortable."
She had never admired warmth. Warmth could confuse people, and coldness was the reality.
Ji Zisheng reached out and took a windbreaker from the back seat and threw it to her, "Put this on. Don't catch a cold."
Shao Qing was stunned for a moment and thought to herself, "That's right. I can't go to work if I catch a cold. It's time to use money now, so I have to pay attention to my health to ensure my income."
She rolled up the window and did not wear the clothes of Ji Zisheng.
Now that the show was over, there was no need to accept his kindness.
Thinking of this, Shao Qing took off the necklace and handed it over, "Here you are."
Ji Zisheng glanced at her indifferently and said, "You look good in it. Keep it."
"You can't judge a book by its cover, Mr. Ji," Shao Qing said with a smile, "Although I love money, I won't accept anything."
Ji Zisheng did not insist. He took the necklace and threw it into the storage box casually.
Shao Qing sighed in her heart. How could he throw away something worth tens of millions of yuan so casually.
In a trance, she felt like Cinderella in fairy tales. When the midnight bell rang, she would go back to where she came from. She still couldn't understand the world of the rich.
But she didn't care. Instead, she sneered.
Ji Zisheng frowned when he heard that.
He had never seen a woman act like this in front of him. She was sophisticated and disdainful.
He was annoyed and couldn't give up.
He really wanted to know what kind of sense of accomplishment he would get from taming a wild little wild cat.
Moreover, she had the body and appearance that he liked.
Ji Zisheng felt the temperature in the car rise sharply, and his lips became dry. He couldn't help rolling his throat.
Not long after, the car stopped in front of Shao Qing's house.
"Thank you for driving me back." Shao Qing opened the door and got out.
Ji Zisheng calmly took out a cigarette and said in a low voice, "Are you afraid of living at home alone? Do you want to move to my place?"
Shao Qing paused and asked, "Is there such a rule in our game?"
Ji Zisheng lit his cigarette and shook his head, "We can set up another game."
His voice was completely calm. It was as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
"... No, thanks. I'm tired." Shao Qing entered the building without looking back.
She understood what Ji Zisheng meant, but there was no need to have a careless relationship. Women always suffered losses.
What's more, Ji Zisheng had other messy relationships with her.
When she got home, she took off her dress and put it in a bag, thinking that she would return it one day, even if the other party would definitely not want it.
Instead of turning on the light, she changed into her pajamas and sat on her mother's bed to smoke.
Mrs. Shao was conservative and thought that girls could not smoke. Once, she found cigarettes in Shao Qing's bag and scolded Shao Qing.
Thinking of this, Shao Qing couldn't help smiling and said to herself, "Look, not only do I smoke now, but I'm also smoking on your bed. Aren't you angry?"
But for some reason, a strong sense of loneliness and fear suddenly enveloped her, as if her mother would never return home again.
Shao Qing shook her hand, which was holding a cigarette, and tears welled up in her eyes.
She hugged her legs and curled up on the bed, turning from a quiet whimper into a restrained cry.
Ji Zisheng was right. She was alone and afraid.
After a night of tossing and turning, Shao Qing felt dizzy in the early morning. The sunlight shone on her face through the gap of the curtain.
She turned over and heard her phone ring.
It was Shao Budong.
She pursed her lips impatiently and picked it up, "What's the matter."
The other party was as cold as ever, giving orders like a robot. "Shao Yu was kidnapped by her gangster boyfriend, Song Meng. Go and ask Song Yong for help."
Hearing this, Shao Qing was furious and shouted, "Shao Yu will be fine if you give him the money. Why are you looking for Song Yong?"
"Song Yong is the cousin of Song Meng. Aren't you familiar with him? I don't have to pay him for his help." Shao Budong said confidently.
Shao Qing was so angry that she laughed.
Shao Budong didn't even want to pay for his precious daughter's kidnapping, so it was reasonable for him not to pay for the surgery for Mrs. Shao.
"If you want to see Song Yong, go by yourself. Don't bother me!" She hung up the phone directly.
Song Yong was a well-known head of gangsters in Linhai City. He owned several repair factories, but they not only repaired cars, but also did some shady things.
Many years ago, Shao Qing was still studying, and her family was in a difficult situation. She and her mother lived in a chaotic bungalow with all kinds of people coming and going. Song Yong also lived there.
Mrs. Shao was honest and weak. Shao Qing was young and beautiful, so she naturally became prey in the eyes of the wicked. In order to protect herself, Shao Qing had hooked up with the gangster Song Yong. From then on, no one dared to bully them.
It was not until Shao Qing could work to make money and leave the bungalow with her mother that she lost contact with Song Yong.
Fortunately, Song Yong was young and easy to fool back then. Otherwise, Shao Qing wouldn't have escaped unscathed. How could she get herself into trouble for Shao Yu now.
She couldn't sleep anymore. After changing her clothes, she went out and took a taxi to the hospital to see her mother.
Because Ji Zisheng was generous enough, Mrs. Shao had been transferred to the VIP ward.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door of the ward, she heard Mrs. Shao mutter, "Shao Yu was kidnapped."
Her face immediately turned cold. "It's none of our business. Mind your own business."
Mrs. Shao grabbed her hand and said earnestly, "No matter what, Shao Yu is your sister. Besides, look at my body. I may die one day. You can't live alone. You have to rely on the Shao Family. If you help them find Shao Yu, they will appreciate your kindness."
Shao Qing was speechless and buried her face in her hands.
It was not that she had nothing to refute, but when she heard her mother's words, she felt as if there was a fishbone stuck in her throat. She was afraid that she would burst into tears if she said a few more words.
Mrs. Shao did not give up and continued to persuade her. "Although Song Yong is not well-educated, he is very loyal. You used to have a good relationship with him. Go and find him. He will help you."
Seeing that Shao Qing was still silent, she sighed again and said, "If you really don't want to go, I'll go. I've brought him a lot of food in the past. As long as he cares about the past, he won't ignore this matter."
Shao Qing shook her head in despair.
What her mother didn't know was that Song Yong was no longer the stupid boy he used to be. Things were not that simple.
She slowly raised her face, and her eyes were slightly red. She squeezed out two words from her throat, "I'll go."
