Later, Du Renliang called Qiao Xuying. He believed that Zhou Qi's biggest mistake was to make Qiao Xuying happy by making her the general manager of Hualong Electric.

If Qiao Xuying knew the truth and attacked Zhou Qi from behind, the emerging brand Hualong would collapse instantly.

"Mr. Qiao, the man in your heart is now enjoying life with another woman in Nanyue, while you are still running around working hard for him. I am not trying to alienate you on purpose, but I just think you shouldn't be treated like this." Du Renliang said.

Qiao Xueying smiled and responded: "Then please ask Brother Zhou if he needs me and my sisters to accompany him tonight."

Du Renliang was surprised to hear this.

Qiao Xuying and Du Qianqian are both top beauties, and this combination is really attractive.

Something is wrong. Is this still the Qiao Xuying he knows?

He sneered: "You don't have to be stubborn. We are now at the Nanyue Yilin Hotel. You can take the nearest flight to confirm it in person."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Du Renliang was sure that Qiao Xueying would most likely come. Once she showed up, a good show would begin.

Once Qiao Xueying made a fuss, Hualong's plan would be disrupted. In this way, he could go directly back to Hai City and report the good news to his father.

On the other side, after Zhou Qi hung up the phone, there was a helpless smile on his face.

Du Qianqian raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why, does this involve your girlfriend? Do you need my help to explain it?"

Zhou Qi smiled and said, "Boss Qiao asked me to say hello to you on her behalf."

"Will you die if you don't brag?" Du Qianqian looked at Zhou Qi and said, "Men, none of them are reliable."

When it comes to feelings, Zhou Qi feels that he has no right to speak now.

At six o'clock sharp, the charity dinner began.

The lights dimmed and the host walked onto the stage.

She was wearing a white evening gown inlaid with diamonds, looking elegant and charming.

The guests were very well-mannered, and the scene suddenly became quiet. Facing so many big names, the well-known host of the provincial TV station did not dare to delay the time. After opening enthusiastically, he introduced the program according to the procedure.

The performances ranged from popular songs to touching stories, and after each show the host called on everyone to show their love for poor children.

"Thank you all for the wonderful performance." The host continued, "All proceeds from tonight's auction will be used to support the education of children in poor mountainous areas."

The first lot was a pair of crystal high heels, exquisite works of art, dotted with tiny diamonds, bought by wealthy men to please their girlfriends. The starting price was 10,000.

"Twenty thousand!" someone shouted immediately.

"Twenty-five thousand!"

"Twenty-six thousand!"

The bidding was fierce but the atmosphere was friendly. In the end, the shoes were sold for 30,000 yuan and given to the woman who was holding his arm by a middle-aged man with thinning hair.

The entire auction was held at a leisurely pace, more like an entertainment event, and the items on display were also varied.

Most of these auction items come from social donations, including from companies and individuals. Many of the guests at the event are so-called social elites, who contributed most of the auction items.

At the auction, everything seems to be very lively, but in fact it is just a bluff. Especially for artworks such as calligraphy and painting, as long as you are willing to spend money to hype it up, fame will naturally come, and you can even use it to open classes.

"My friends, the item I am going to show you next means a lot to me. It comes from a trip to the mountains and was given to me by a local child as a souvenir." The host said softly, "Although its value may seem insignificant to the outside world, it is full of emotion and good hopes for the future for me."

She continued, "This friendship is priceless, so I decided not to set a starting price. You can bid according to your own wishes."

Obviously, the beautiful hostess is trying to impress people through emotional stories. And such a strategy is often effective, especially in front of male bidders.

Almost immediately, a man in his 50s spoke up: "Since this is a precious memory between you and that little kid, I'm willing to support it. Five thousand dollars!"

The onlookers exchanged glances, knowing clearly what this gentleman's true intentions were.

To them, the existence of a beautiful host is more like a decoration. Besides being used for viewing, she may have other uses. The key is who is willing to pay for it.

Then, another dark-skinned, strong man joined the competition: "How can such a kind gesture be worth only five thousand? I am willing to pay ten thousand." He smiled and added: "It is always a pleasure to do good deeds, especially if I can ask you to personally wear this bracelet for me..."

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and the meaning was self-evident.

Faced with these words, the female host could only force a smile, but she felt extremely uncomfortable inside.

Just as the atmosphere became awkward, Du Qianqian glared at the man in dissatisfaction, then turned to Zhou Qi and asked, "Don't you think you should take action? You make so much money, it's not too much to take some out to do some good things, right?"

Zhou Qi glanced at the man and replied, "If you want to do good things, just participate in the bidding."

"Well, you are quite generous at the critical moment." Du Qianqian said as she raised her hand to raise the price: "Eleven thousand!"

Then she turned to Zhou Qi and smiled, "It's not much more, just one thousand more than his. If you can really attract the attention of the beautiful host, you will be lucky."

Zhou Qi shook his head helplessly. All of this was seen by He Zhicheng who was watching silently from the side.

Du Renliang stood aside, with a slight smile on his face, and said to He Zhicheng: "The opportunity is right in front of you. You have to overwhelm him in every way. What are you hesitating about?"

He Zhicheng heard this and raised his hand without hesitation and said, "Twelve thousand."

Although his voice was not loud, it revealed a lot of arrogance, as if he was not shouting out twelve thousand, but twelve million, or even one hundred million.

The provocation is so obvious.

When Du Qianqian heard He Zhicheng's voice, she frowned and glanced at him, feeling annoyed. She made the bid just because she couldn't stand the old pervert before, but she didn't expect He Zhicheng to show up again.

She was too lazy to argue with them, but the old pervert was not to be outdone and raised the price again: "Thirteen thousand!"

He Zhicheng originally wanted to target Zhou Qi, but seeing that Zhou Qi and Du Qianqian didn't respond, he didn't want to waste money. However, the auctioneer had already started asking, "Anyone else bid? Thirteen thousand, first time, second time..."

Du Qianqian frowned slightly, seeing that the bracelet was about to fall into the hands of the old pervert, and his disgusting look of victory made her unbearable.

So, she raised her hand again and raised the price: "Fourteen thousand!"

As soon as the words fell, He Zhicheng's voice rang out: "Fifteen thousand!"

Everyone noticed the unusualness of this round of bidding, as if it was a tit-for-tat contest.
