Chapter 234 Lover Boy

Quan Lei smiled at Jiang Yue before looking at Fu Jin. Then, he slowly raised an eyebrow at the latter. It was clearly an open provocation.

"21 million," the focus of the crowd was then stolen from Quan Lei, as they looked at the middle-aged man.

"22 million," this time, another woman joined the bidding. The woman was on a call, so many of them assumed that the original bidder was not her, instead, it was the person on the other end of the phone.

"25 million," the middle-aged man responded, kindly looking at his wife, who was sitting next to him.

This interaction hadn't gone unnoticed by both Jiang Yue and Fu Jin, as both of them knew that this man and his wife would be killed soon after obtaining the watch.

"27 million," again it was Quan Lei.

"30 million," the woman on the phone said without batting an eye.

"31 million," Quan Lei responded, his gaze never leaving Jiang Yue. Seeing Jiang Yue ignore him, only made Quan Lei more fierce, to the point that even Fu Jin noticed his passionate gaze towards Jiang Yue.

"Ignore him." Jiang Yue grabbed Fu Jin's arms to get his attention. "He is not worth it."

"35 million," the middle-aged man said.

"38," Quan Lei answered quickly.

However, everyone was stunned when the woman on the phone suddenly blurted, "Fifty million."

Fifty million dollars? For a piece of watch? Who in their right mind would do something so crazy?

Even Quan Lei stared at the woman in astonishment. He then decided to just give up this piece… Or not.

However, Jiang Yue's reaction was different. She furrowed her brows, as she wondered if the things that had happened in her previous life, would happen again. If so, who could be the unlucky person behind the phone call?

"Fifty million, going once? Going twice? SOLD! Let's congratulate the madam for acquiring Timeless, an incredible piece of jewelry," the auction manager, together with many guests, applauded."This marks the end of our auction for tonight. However, there will still be more entertainment following this. Please enjoy."

After the auction manager left the stage, many of the guests also got up and started talking, including Fu Jin and Jiang Yue.

"I did not expect to see you here," Quan Lei suddenly said as he walked to Jiang Yue. As a bodyguard, Jiang Yue was walking behind Fu Jin. "You look good. I did not expect to see you look so... regal."

"Mr. Quan, If you do not have anything important to say, please do not disturb us." Jiang Yue said without diverting her gaze from Fu Jin. They were currently on their way to the private lounge of the venue, to meet some of Fu Yi's acquaintances in the business world.

Sensing the heavy atmosphere around Jiang Yue, Fu Jin's steps halted as he turned his head towards Jiang Yue. Fu Jin immediately strode towards Jiang Yue, his gaze cold and dark. "Move."

"Relax lover boy... we were just talking." Quan Lei faked a laugh."You seem so tensed around me Mr.Fu... May I know why?"

Fu Jin squinted his eyes at Quan Lei. He already knew that Quan Lei had followed them here, but he had never expected him to attend this gala. After all, the Quan Family should not have had the qualification to attend this party.

It seemed that his initial doubts were actually true.

He then leaned towards Quan Lei's ear and murmured, "I know what you want... but you will never succeed. Keep that in mind."

Quan Lei's eyes sparkled when he heard Fu Jin's words. Then he watched Fu Jin walk away while holding hands with Jiang Yue.

It seemed that Fu Jin had already known about his purpose. This should make the show more challenging, right?

"She seems to hate you." Quan Lei heard a soft voice next to him. He turned his head and almost laughed out loud when he saw that it was Jiang Mian,Jiang Yue's sister. This should be fun.

"Not as much as he hates you," he answered as he stared at Jiang Mian. The woman in front of him looked so vulnerable, her slender neck so exquisite, making him think of wrapping his hands around it and choke her to death.

Jiang Mian nervously laughed, looking at the stranger in front of her, who was staring at her like his prey. She lowered her head and blushed, as she felt his burning gaze towards her. Jiang Mian thought that the stranger, who obviously liked Jiang Yue, had already switched her feelings towards him. After all, love at first sight, did existed, right?

Of course, if Jiang Mian knew that Quan Lei only wanted to break her neck, then it would have been totally a different story.

"I am Jiang Mian, Jiang Yue's sister."

"I know." He answered. "I've seen your stupid action once."

Jiang Mian instantly bit her lips at Quan Lei's words. "May I know who are you?"

"You don't deserve to know that." Quan Lei hissed before walking away from Jiang Mian. He hated this type of women the most. Thinking about the things that Jiang Mian had done to Jiang Yue before, only made him hate her even more.

What a nasty woman. He wondered what could be that woman's purpose of getting close to Jiang Yue. Did she want to take Fu Jin away from Jiang Yue?

The thought of Jiang Mian causing chaos between Jiang Yue and Fu Jin instantly made Quan Lei beam with happiness. Maybe, coming here was not a bad idea after all.
