My Ares Son-in-Law

"Is that piece of wood worth a million? Don't fall for that kid's provocation!"

Yun Yuyan was a little anxious. She felt that Xiao Chen seemed to have done something stupid and had been tricked by Chen Shaocong.

"Don't worry, I know in my heart whether that thing is worth a million or not. As for little Chen Shaocong, he's not enough to excite me."

Xiao Chen waved his hand, "Besides, you know that the money I spent originally belonged to the Chen family. The black card that Chen Jianguo gave me is worth hundreds of millions. Even if Chen Shaocong is cheating, he's not cheating me, but his own family."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yuyan suddenly realized: "Wow, now that you mention it, Chen Shaocong really is a complete fool. He sold out his own family for the sake of face and even offended you?"

She immediately felt relieved and even smiled contentedly.

Don't even mention that Xiao Chen's purchases are guaranteed to be profitable. Even if they are, it's the Chen family's money that's being lost. Why is she in such a hurry?
Chen Shaocong sat in the general section, his face flushed red, his ears burning, clearly feeling extremely embarrassed.

After putting in tremendous effort, he not only failed to snatch the wooden ornament, but also lost face in front of so many eyes. The feeling of being laughed at behind his back was worse than being beaten up.

He felt that everyone around him was laughing at him for trying to show off and instead becoming a clown.

What angered him even more was that Xiao Chen actually turned his head and said lightly, "Your tough talk only lasted a few seconds before you went limp. I thought you, Young Master Chen, were so arrogant, but it turns out you're all talk and no action, a mere showpiece!"

Upon hearing this, everyone around Chen Shaocong turned to look at him and couldn't help but laugh.

They weren't afraid of Chen Shaocong, after all, the people who could come here to participate in the auction were all of high status.

Chen Shaocong was furious. He felt his face burning, as if he had been slapped in public.

"Don't get cocky! I definitely won't lose to you on the next item! I don't believe that after spending a million, you'll still have money to bid on the next treasure. When I have to bid, let's see how you'll still have the nerve to do it!"

Chen Shaocong suddenly stood up and shouted at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen ignored this idiot. He stopped playing games and started focusing on the auction because he found that it was finally getting interesting, with more good stuff than he had imagined.

At this moment, another item was brought up for auction.

Qin Mian announced loudly, "The tenth item is a glass gourd. This glass gourd is a work from the Ming Dynasty. It is very well preserved, without any chips or scratches. The starting price is 500,000, and each bid must be at least 50,000!"

Xiao Chen glanced up and decided to make a move.

The spiritual energy contained in this glass gourd was actually greater than that of the wooden carving from before.

I originally thought this auction was just about accompanying Yun Yuyan around, but I didn't expect to encounter so many good things. This time, it was definitely worth the trip.

He was determined to get his hands on that glass gourd.

"Six hundred thousand."

Xiao Chen raised the number plate in his hand.

"Seven hundred thousand!"

"one million!"

Chen Shaocong made another bid. It has to be said, this kid really has a lot of pocket money. He failed to embarrass Xiao Chen just now, but this time he has to do it. He can't let Xiao Chen be so cocky anymore.

Although he didn't know exactly how much the glass gourd was worth, he still wanted to outshine Xiao Chen, otherwise he wouldn't feel comfortable.

It's a pity he didn't know that his father, Chen Jianguo, had given Xiao Chen a black card worth 300 million yuan. Even if he spent all his pocket money on it, he wouldn't make a ripple.

The poor fellow is nothing short of a clown.

Xiao Chen made another offer.

Two million.

Since it's not his own money, he might as well spend it. If Chen Jianguo thinks he's spending too much, he can only blame his stupid son.

"Two million one hundred thousand!" Chen Shaocong hesitated for a long time before adding a little more money. There was no other way; he only had that much ability and not much money on hand. He had to hesitate for a long time before adding even this much.

As a result, Xiao Chen raised the price as soon as he made his bid.

Three million.

Compared to Chen Shaocong's inner turmoil, he was completely nonchalant, as if three million was nothing.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Shaocong, wanting to see if this boastful young man would continue.

With so many people watching, Chen Shaocong was on the verge of tears.

He just declared that he would never lose to Xiao Chen, so if he gives up now, he'll really be proven wrong.

But if he actually followed along, he would be a complete idiot.

This thing isn't worth three million at all, not to mention he'll have to raise the price.

Seeing Chen Shaocong hesitate, the people around him joined in the commotion, always eager for a good show.

"Go for it! Didn't you say you wouldn't lose to him? Hurry up and add more!"

"Stop dawdling! Show some guts!"

"Three million already, dare you add a little more?"

"You're not out of money, are you?"

……

Chen Shaocong's expression changed repeatedly, and he wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground: "I...I'm not going to follow them anymore, they're not good people anyway."

He gritted his teeth and finally managed to save face, but it was no use; the surrounding mocking voices immediately followed.

"That's it? Weren't you bragging a lot just now?"

"What a disgrace! If you don't have money, don't try to pretend you do!"

"It's a waste of everyone's time, and it's pointless."

"If you can't afford it, you say it's not worth the price. Is it because you don't have the money?"

Chen Shaocong sat down with his head down, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand. How embarrassing! He was filled with remorse. Why did he have to go against Xiao Chen?

Damn it, why does that guy have so much money? Isn't he just a gigolo?
I don't understand!
I don't understand at all!
Just when he thought the matter was over, Xiao Chen spoke up: "Young Master Chen seems to have not brought enough money today. Where did your arrogance go? Weren't you trying to embarrass me? Is this all the courage the Chen family has? Some things, you really shouldn't try to be brave, or you'll end up becoming a laughing stock."

These words completely enraged Chen Shaocong. He suddenly stood up and roared, "You...you did this on purpose! You deliberately tried to raise the price for me! You're playing me!"

"Sir, you raised your paddle yourself at the auction; no one forced you. If you lost, you lost. Don't cause trouble here and disrupt the order of the event."

The one speaking was Qin Xianglan.

After finishing her work backstage, Qin Xianglan sat down next to Xiao Chen, afraid that someone would upset him again. Unexpectedly, it was Chen Shaocong, that little idiot, who came up with the task.

As soon as Qin Xianglan's voice rang out, two tall and burly security guards immediately went to Chen Shaocong's side.

Qin Xianglan asked Xiao Chen in a low voice, "Mr. Xiao, should we kick that guy out?"

"No need. He's just a clown. With him around, it's quite fun. Let him be a mascot."

Xiao Chen smiled.

Qin Xianglan nodded, then looked at Chen Shaocong again: "Mr. Chen, I have a good relationship with your sister, which is why I gave your Chen family an invitation this time. But if you continue to act so unreasonably, don't blame me for being impolite!" (End of Chapter)
