3188 I'm Better at Arguing
After the meal, they rested for about ten minutes. When the afternoon auction was about to begin, they left the restaurant for the auction hall.
Once Li Mochen and the others came, someone recognized Mu Yiyang and came over to say hi to him.
"Mr. Mu, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you here."
It was a middle-aged man who walked over to greet Mu Yiyang. He was very polite and respectful.
He was from the capital city and was a member of high society, so he knew Mu Yiyang.
However, they had only met twice at events. They weren't familiar and only knew each other's background.
"Oh, hi, Chairman Fan, nice to see you." Mu Yiyang wasn't arrogant, so he politely replied when someone came to say hi to him. However, he stayed a polite distance from the man.
There were two other middle-aged men and a young woman with Chairman Fan.
The young woman seemed to be in her early twenties. She was beautiful and dressed conservatively. She looked like an obedient daughter. She didn't seem to be a mistress of one of those men.
It was true that this young woman wasn't a mistress, she was the daughter of one of those men.
Although she looked obedient, she was amazed and shy when she saw Mu Yiyang and the other men. She didn't avoid them and stared at Mu Yiyang.
Fan Yaofeng felt excited and honored at being remembered by Mu Yiyang, but he didn't say it aloud. Otherwise, he would just embarrass himself.
"Mr. Mu, I didn't see you this morning. Were you not there?" asked Fan Yaofeng. In the morning, he saw Li Mochen and the others, but Mu Yiyang was absent.
Obviously, Mu Yiyang didn't come this morning. Fan Yaofeng simply asked that question to speak to Mu Yiyang for longer.
Mu Yiyang had a high status, so most people wanted to form a close relationship with him.
"Yeah, I went to deal with something in the morning, so I didn't come. Chairman Fan, please excuse me, I need to go over with my friends," Mu Yiyang said. He didn't want to talk to Fan Yaofeng for much longer.
"Sure, please, Mr. Mu." Fan Yaofeng wanted to talk to Mu Yiyang for longer, but he didn't dare to bother him, so he said nothing else.
After that, Mu Yiyang and the others walked away. The young woman could barely take her eyes off of them, so she was disappointed when they walked away.
"Uncle Fan, who's this Mr. Mu?" she asked Fan Yaofeng.
"He's from a very powerful family. His family is the Mu family in the capital city," Fan Yaofeng said.
Hearing that, the others were surprised. Although they had guessed as much when Fan Yaofeng was so polite to Mu Yiyang, they were still surprised by Fan Yaofeng's answer.
The young woman had a dream after knowing about Mu Yiyang's background. She wished that she could become Mu Yiyang's girlfriend.
However, that was only her wish, not reality. She didn't even have a chance to talk to him.
…
When Fan Yaofeng exchanged greetings with Mu Yiyang, Uncle Qin also saw it.
He didn't know Mu Yiyang, but he recognized Fan Yaofeng. Fan Yaofeng was a famous and successful entrepreneur in the capital city, but he was very polite and respectful of Mu Yiyang, which meant that Mu Yiyang was more powerful than Fan Yaofeng.
Moreover, Mu Yiyang came with Li Mochen and the others, which proved that they were important figures too.
Luckily, he had stopped the two women from causing trouble this morning. If unreasonable people had been there, they might have sided with the two women because of their status.
By then, they would have offended Mu Yiyang and his friends and they would be in serious trouble.
…
Li Mochen and the others went to sit around the same table.
Ten minutes later, the auction began.
The No. 19 raw jade material was a complete stone with a little magical power, so Leng Xiaoyao told Mu Yiyang to bid for it.
"You're so nice to me! You want me to have the first one?" Mu Yiyang was excited, because he knew that there must be jade since Leng Xiaoyao asked him to buy it.
Their conversation meant nothing, but Li Mochen was unhappy after hearing it.
"Don't think too much. You're the last one who has gotten raw jade material. Brother Mochen and the others already did that this morning," Leng Xiaoyao said straightforwardly.
"Hey, do you have to be so straightforward?" Mu Yiyang asked resignedly.
"Why? You don't like the truth?" Leng Xiaoyao said.
"I'm just joking." Mu Yiyang complained.
"I'm better at arguing," Leng Xiaoyao retorted.
Mu Yiyang was struck dumb for a second. He felt it now, so he didn't know what to say. "Fine, you win." He directly gave in.
Seeing that Leng Xiaoyao didn't hesitate to argue against Mu Yiyang, Li Mochen was pleased.
Mu Yiyang listened to Leng Xiaoyao, and opened his mouth when there were only a few bidders left.
In the end, Mu Yiyang won without doubt.
"I can't wait to see what type the jade is!" Mu Yiyang looked forward to seeing it.
"Aren't you afraid that it's just a stone? After all, I can't be right every time," Leng Xiaoyao joked.
"Even if it's just a stone, I'll accept it, but I still believe you can do it," Mu Yiyang said. He had a lot of confidence in Leng Xiaoyao.
Leng Xiaoyao smiled and said nothing, but Li Mochen disliked Mu Yiyang's attitude more and more.
In the following auction, Leng Xiaoyao told Jiang Han and Mu Fan to bid for the other two raw jade materials with a little magical power. On the other hand, Li Mochen got three half-cut raw jade materials with strong magical power.
During the auction, Mu Yiyang felt that someone was staring at him all the time and got irritated.
It was the young woman who was with Fan Yaofeng and the others earlier.
Because she focused on Mu Yiyang too much, even her father and the others couldn't stand it. "What? Do you like him?" Her father joked.
Her father didn't think it was wrong that his daughter liked Mu Yiyang. After all, Mu Yiyang had a high status and was very handsome. There were few women who didn't have interest in him.
In addition, her father thought highly of himself and believed that his daughter was the best. He didn't feel self-abased at all when his daughter fell in love with a man who had a much higher status than them.
