After the mother was reborn, she was deeply involved in the battle for favor between her sons

The auction was still going on, and the pink diamond bracelet that Lin Xu saw in the auction brochure also started bidding.

The bidding was even more intense than that of the necklace just now, and it increased to 10 million in less than a moment.

"Do you want it?" Ji Zeqiu noticed that Lin Xu looked at the stage from time to time, as if he was also interested in the bracelet.

I thought since she was already here, I might as well buy two, and if she wanted them, I would just buy them for her.

It's not because of anything else.

Seeing that Ji Zeqiu wanted to raise the price, Lin Xu shook his head at him, "No, no, don't buy it."

This bracelet is much more expensive than the necklace, and she was afraid that he would go bankrupt.

"Really?" Ji Zeqiu was suspicious.

"Yeah, I don't like this bracelet at all!" Lin Xu said seriously.

"Okay." Ji Zeqiu had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​buying more.

During the conversation, the bracelet was sold for 20 million.

Lin Xu patted his chest and was glad that he didn't let Ji Zeqiu buy it.

After the auction, Ji Zeqiu and Lin Xu came to the backstage of the auction house, paid the money and took away the jewelry necklace.

Lin Xu stared at the necklace, feeling a little touched: "Thinking about it, this seems to be the first gift you gave me. I will definitely treasure it and even hold it when I sleep!"

The latter sentence is obviously exaggerated.

Ji Zeqiu blushed for a moment, and said angrily: "This is not a gift, it's a return gift! Do you understand?"

He would never give this woman a gift!

And if she accepts it, it means they are even now, do you understand?

"Gifts and return gifts are both gifts, they're the same. Don't react so strongly." Lin Xu comforted him.

"How are they the same?" Ji Zeqiu glared at her.

Giving gifts is something that happens voluntarily, while returning gifts is just a social convention and carries a kind of moral compulsion.

He would never admit that he would give a gift to Lin Xu.

The two men bickered as they walked out of the backstage of the auction house.

Ji Zeqiu found that he had no chance of winning the argument with this woman and was extremely angry all the way. Just as he was sulking, he noticed that Lin Xu beside him paused.

Before I could ask, I heard her shouting towards a distance, "Ji Tingyang!"

Ji Zeqiu followed her gaze and saw Ji Tingyang standing upright at the entrance of the auction hall, talking to someone.

Hearing the voice, Ji Tingyang paused for a moment and then turned around.

The moment he saw Lin Xu, Ji Zeqiu found that his eyes suddenly became bright. He left the people beside him and walked quickly towards Lin Xu.

Ji Tingyang's face was filled with silent joy, but when she saw Ji Zeqiu beside her, the joy faded a little and she let out a disgusted sound.

"What do you mean by "shocked"? Do you think I just want to see you?" Ji Zeqiu said angrily.

Ji Tingyang ignored him and looked at Lin Xu, "Are you here to see me?"

"Don't be so conceited. Who knew you were here? She came with me to buy things." Ji Zeqiu interrupted, "If we knew you were here, we wouldn't have come today."

Ji Tingyang continued to ignore Ji Zeqiu and talked to Lin Xu, "I just bought you a gift, guess what it is?"

Ji Zeqiu: "What a good gift it can be."

Ji Tingyang said to Lin Xu: "It's what you like."

Ji Zeqiu: "I bought everything she likes, what else can you buy?"

Ji Tingyang: "When I saw it, I thought it was very suitable for you, so I decided to buy it for you."

Ji Zeqiu: "Suitability is not important, liking is the most important thing."

"...Can you please shut up!" Ji Tingyang couldn't stand it anymore.

He started making a fuss before his mother even said a word!

Who wants to listen to him!

Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel again, Lin Xu hurriedly changed the subject, "What gift is it? Let me see it!"

After hearing her words, Ji Tingyang no longer had time to pay attention to Ji Zeqiu. He took out a small box from the bag in his hand and opened it.

On it lay a pink diamond-encrusted bracelet.

It was the bracelet that was sold at the auction for 20 million.

There was a flash of surprise and joy in Lin Xu's eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ji Zeqiu's sneer.

"This is the gift you said she would definitely like? Hahaha, she doesn't like this bracelet at all."

This is what Lin Xu told him when he wanted to buy it just now.

The smile on Ji Tingyang's lips froze, and his eyes were filled with disappointment. He asked Lin Xu for confirmation, "Really?"

"Hurry up and tell him that you don't like it at all." Ji Zeqiu urged. He was waiting to see Ji Tingyang make a fool of himself.

Lin Xu: "..."

Two pairs of eyes were fixed on her, and she suddenly felt as if she were Alexander.

No matter which one she answered, she felt a sense of difficulty in being fair.

"I, I..." Lin Xu suddenly had an idea. He bent down and covered his stomach, groaning in pain. "Ouch, my stomach hurts so much. I must have eaten something wrong. I'm going to the toilet first!"

After saying that, she greased her feet and ran to the bathroom without looking back.

Ji Tingyang and Ji Zeqiu were left standing there, looking at each other.

Ji Zeqiu glanced at the bracelet and thought of the 20 million bid. He said sarcastically, "20 million for a bracelet. President Ji is really generous."

"As long as she likes it, 50 million doesn't matter." Ji Tingyang said lightly.

"Do you really like Lin Xu so much?" Ji Zeqiu clenched his hands, remembering that he had driven Wen Li away for Lin Xu. "Do you like her more than Wen Li?"

"What are you talking about?" Ji Tingyang frowned in confusion.

He likes his mother, what does it have to do with Wen Li.

"How is Lin Xu better than Wen Li? The food she cooks is not as delicious as Wen Li, nor is she as quiet as Wen Li. She is also not as frugal as Wen Li, and she doesn't like to buy so many jewelry and bags..." Ji Zeqiu picked out a bunch of Lin Xu's shortcomings.

He couldn't figure it out. "You don't want to marry her in the future, do you? I won't agree anyway!"

Ji Tingyang's mind suddenly became clear.

Ji Tingyang always thought that Lin Xu had already gone to Ji Zeqiu for a paternity test and told him her identity, and Ji Zeqiu also knew that Lin Xu was their mother.

That's why he was so confident in letting Ji Zeqiu protect Lin Xu at the banquet.

It was also because Ji Zeqiu couldn't bear to see that he had a good relationship with his mother, so he tried every means to separate himself and his mother and let his mother live with him.

But what Ji Tingyang didn't expect was that...

Ji Zeqiu didn’t even know?

Is that why he reveals a little hostility towards his mother from time to time?

Ji Tingyang's lips curled up quietly.

Don't know better.

He would never tell Ji Zeqiu about this specifically, because this way his mother would always be just his mother.

Thinking of this, his mood gradually became happier, and even Ji Zeqiu looked a little pleasing to the eye.
