Chapter 169 Help me leave

Fu Tingzhou's pupils were deep. He looked at the woman with a faint smile on her face. It was like she was covered with a mask. He didn't like it, but her answer made him feel at ease for a moment. His hand hooked the woman's face.

Tang Xi's waist was very thin. He held it in his arms with one hand, as if he was playing with a beloved object. The man's hand gently wandered around the woman's waist.

Tang Xi felt a little itchy and avoided it for a while.

She was naturally sensitive, and the itching feeling made her shrink back in discomfort. Her back happened to be leaning against the man's hard chest. The temperature in his arms was a little cold, but Fu Tingzhou's palm was hot on her waist.

superior.

Xu Rongchen opened the door and walked in.

Tang Xi's cheeks were a little red. She wanted to get out of the man's arms. The posture of the two of them at this moment was indescribably ambiguous.

Xu Rongchen glanced at the overturned teacup on the ground and the futon soaked by the tea. Xu Rongchen naturally knew what happened. There was a gentle smile on the man's lips. He asked his assistant to change the futon and sat down.

"It's such a good tea, what a pity."

Fu Tingzhou said, "If you like it, I'll ask the boss here to give you some."

The man raised his chin, and the assistant on the side came over and removed the screen in front of him. Without the screen, the auction situation on the first floor could be clearly seen in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

It was Tang Xi's first time here and he was full of curiosity about everything here.

She watched a young woman walk up the stage downstairs, wearing a white suit. She was very elegant. She was wearing white gloves and explaining what she was holding, a piece of green jade, about the size of an adult woman's palm.

"This is our first auction today, called [Qingwan]. It is a work by the famous sculptor Chang Hongguang. It is made of top-quality Hetian jasper. The starting price is 5 million."

Fu Tingzhou looked at Tang Xi's face, "Do you want it?"

Tang Xi shook his head.

She is actually not interested in this kind of thing.

One after another, several items were put up for auction. Tang Xi looked at them with great interest at first, but after watching them for a while, she became a little bored and felt that the time was boring. She once again took out the man's mobile phone to play games.

Suddenly, I heard Fu Tingzhou holding up a sign and making a quote.

She raised her eyes and glanced.

It's a calligraphy and painting, and it's the one Ji Qingtan wanted on the phone just now.

Tang Xi couldn't help but pursed her lips lightly.

He said he refused, but in fact, he still paid attention to Ji Qingtan.

Soon the lot was sent to the box by Qianqiu's staff and appeared in front of Tang Xi.

Those who can get a private room in Qianqiu are definitely the big shots in Beicheng, and there will be no credit card or non-payment after the photo is taken, so as soon as the decision is made, it will be sent over immediately.

Fu Tingzhou brought the calligraphy and painting to Tang Xi, "Take a look."

Tang Xi picked it up and took a look. The calligraphy and painting worth tens of millions was indeed written by a famous artist.

It is a picture of lychee.

Tang Xi took one look and closed it, saying calmly, "I am a layman and don't understand this. Since it is so expensive, it should be very good."

Fu Tingzhou looked at her calm expression, raised his eyebrows slightly, and handed a glass of warm water to her. Tang Xi played the game and drank the water while putting it to her lips. She took a sip, and there was still half a glass in it.

, Fu Tingzhou naturally took it and drank it himself.

A few more lots passed next.

When a set of jewelry-like accessories arrived, Fu Tingzhou didn't even think about it and directly raised the price by raising the sign.

But what I didn't expect was that someone would follow the price.

Miss etiquette, "10 million, someone offered 10 million!"

Fu Tingzhou calmly raised the price again, "12 million."

A set of ruby ​​jewelry has been capped at 10 million.

Although the craftsmanship cost is high, and the designer is Shen Jianlin, the world's top costume and jewelry designer, a set of ruby ​​jewelry has collectible value, but the quality of the rubies is average, and the price exceeds tens of millions, which is already the limit.

However, in a place like this, if someone raises the price, there will be competition.

Cheng Yunlang sat on the seat on the first floor. There was a trace of unwillingness in the man's eyes. He continued to increase the price, but in the end, he lost to Fu Tingzhou. Cheng Yunlang and Fu Tingzhou had known each other since they were children, but their relationship in the early years was very ordinary because Fu Tingzhou was an illegitimate child. , Mr. Fu values ​​​​blood very much, and when he knew there was such a grandson outside, he brought him back.

Fu Zongheng's feelings for Fu Tingzhou are very weak. In a large family, it is basically difficult to survive without the support of the elders.

At that time, Fu Tingzhou was really on his own. He didn't have much edge. Even if he did, he suppressed it. Cheng Yunlang was a few years younger than him, but he wanted to call him third uncle. At first, Cheng Yunlang didn't accept this third uncle. , later Fu Tingzhou became more and more stable, Fu Jingrong and Fu Tingzhou gradually got closer, and Cheng Yunlang came into contact with Fu Tingzhou.

Cheng Yunlang was in medicine and Fu Tingzhou was in business, but in fact, Cheng Yunlang had always lived under the light of Fu Tingzhou.

And now, the woman he likes is also with Fu Tingzhou.

He has always obeyed the family's arrangements. He has been under Fu Jingrong's wing since he was a child. He has never thought of resisting. It's not that Cheng Yunlang doesn't have the strength, but that he has a bit of cowardice in his bones and cannot resist the family's power. , and I don’t dare.

For the first time, Cheng Yunlang wanted to get Tang Xi, and wanted to risk everything for a woman.

But he also wanted to do it, because he said he would not marry Qiao Jing, but he couldn't resist Fu Jingrong's arrangement.

-

Fu Tingzhou took photos of a lot of things tonight. Almost all the jewelry on display was taken by Fu Tingzhou.

Xu Rongchen touched his chin, looked at Tang Xi meaningfully and said with a faint smile, "If I had known you liked these things, I would have asked the emcee to give you a little more tonight to make a huge profit for you."

Tang Xi is also a smart person.

He instantly guessed that the big boss behind Qian Qiu was the well-dressed Xu Rongchen sitting in front of him, wearing a smoky gray shirt.

Fu Tingzhou raised his chin and said, "The calligrapher has bitten me hard recently and is eyeing the Chengnan Huakai project. Brother, maybe I need you to step in."

Xu Rongchen said, "If you and the calligrapher remain in this stalemate, it's not a long-term solution. It's better to do it as soon as possible." His words were reserved, but it was actually because of Tang Xi.

Xu Rongchen is able to achieve his current position because he is actually an extremely cold-hearted person. He never takes women seriously. To be precise, ever since he took charge of the Xu family ten years ago, he has only had eyes for women. Power, interests, and no women.

In order to consolidate his status, he can marry a powerful lady from his family.

You can also use all means to get what you want.

Xu Rongchen and Fu Tingzhou are the same kind of people, but the biggest difference is that Fu Tingzhou has feelings and suppresses his own feelings, while Xu Rongchen is a truly ruthless person.

Tang Xi lowered her eyes lightly. She knew what Xu Rongchen meant. It was just that she was a disaster and delayed Fu Tingzhou.

If it weren't for him, Fu Tingzhou would have already married Su Mengshu, the calligrapher's daughter, and now he would probably be in harmony with the calligrapher and Fu family.

-

It was already very late when we returned to Qingfeng Garden.

Tang Xi found that his energy had become much worse recently, but after going out for a few hours, he felt a little tired when he came home.

Fu Tingzhou and Xu Rongchen were going to get together for a while in the evening, and it was Guan Yue who sent Tang Xi home, along with a bunch of things he had taken today.

Tang Xi saw the picture of lychees.

She was a little shocked, "Is this for me?"

Tang Xi looked at this painting, the picture of lychees, and couldn't help but think of Concubine Yang. What is this? Is it a favor given to her by Fu Tingzhou?

It seems a bit ironic.

Fu Tingzhou came back later, smelling of alcohol, but he was completely sober.

Tang Xi had just finished taking a shower. She seemed to know that Fu Tingzhou would come tonight, so she stayed awake and waited for him.

He asked for spiritual happiness, she asked for money, and the two hit it off.

Fu Tingzhou kissed her temples and told her not to go out as much as possible these days, and if she did go out, ask Nie Xiaoyun to follow her.

He said it was to protect her.

Tang Xi had experienced the last car accident, and he also knew how many eyes were staring at him now, including Fu Tingzhou's sworn enemies, calligraphers, and the Xu family. Of course, they also included those who fished in troubled waters and wanted to stab Fu Tingzhou in the back.

Fu Tingzhou was usually too ruthless and offended too many people.

Tang Xi didn't go out much this week, and the only time he went out was on Sunday afternoon.

Fu Tingzhou went to Ancheng because he had something to do.

As soon as the man left, Tang Xi asked Nie Xiaoyun to help her make an appointment with Xu Rongchen.

Xu Rongchen's place was very safe. There was no spy, and Nie Xiaoyun couldn't even come in and had to guard at the door.

Xu Rongchen chose a teahouse.

If Tang Xi hadn't known who Xu Rongchen was, perhaps at first sight, she would have thought that he was a gentle and elegant university school teacher, and that he was a very Confucian and peaceful person.

His voice was as pleasant as a stream melting after freezing in winter, flowing gently.

He doesn't look like a ruthless person at all.

Xu Rongchen poured a cup of tea and handed it to Tang Xi. He looked at the woman in front of him carefully. She was beautiful, but not pretty, because they had seen too many beautiful women. Tang Xi's appearance was really among the beautiful women.

Inside, it’s not outstanding, but it’s very clean and pure. It’s something you can’t forget once you take a look at it.

No wonder Fu Tingzhou likes it.

Xu Rongchen is not a person who is good at reminiscing about the past, especially since he is not a friend to Tang Xi. "What's the matter with you looking for me today?"

"I do have something, and I hope Mr. Xu can help me." Tang Xi took a sip of tea, his eyes bright, "Mr. Xu, I know in your heart you want me to leave Fu Tingzhou, because you feel that I am by his side,

It’s his stumbling block.”

Xu Rongchen took a sip of tea and frowned slightly.

It is a stumbling block, but it is also a weakness.

"I really don't like you."

When Xu Rongchen first saw Fu Tingzhou turning against Xu Yiran for this woman named Tang Xi, Xu Rongchen knew in his heart how important this woman's status was in Fu Tingzhou's heart.

Tang Xi clenched her fingers tightly, her voice was also tight. Under Xu Rongchen's scrutiny, she said hoarsely, "I beg you, help me leave."
