My Silly, Sweet Wife

Su Ze knew Luo Qianqi didn’t quite trust him, but he wasn’t angry. He just said softly, ”It’s very simple. Miss Luo should find a way to spread the news that Ye Guichen possesses the Seven-colored Lotus Jade. If possible, let him win the Lotus Jade at this auction as well.”

After a pause, Su Ze lifted his head and continued, ”By then, for the sake of hundreds of billions of dollars, I fear no one will hesitate to take the Lotus Jade from Ye Guichen. When others and Ye Guichen are both severely injured, I’ll step in and use the identity of Dragon Teeth to declare Ye Guichen as a wanted criminal of Dragon Teeth.”

Luo Qianqi hadn’t expected the person Su Ze was talking about was also Ye Guichen. The corners of her mouth involuntarily curved up, ”By then, with the two of us joining forces, not only can we snatch the Seven-colored Lotus Jade from their hands, but we can also swallow the money from the auction, right?”

Honestly, hearing Su Ze’s proposal, Luo Qianqi was already tempted.

She had been worrying about how to deal with Ye Guichen. It was really like having someone hand her a pillow when she was sleepy. Now that Su Ze had come, it was simply a win-win situation.

This scheme could be considered as killing two birds with one stone.

Among the people coming to the auction, there were many experts. As long as she lets them know Ye Guichen possesses more than one piece of the Seven-colored Lotus Jade, many might take the risk to trouble Ye Guichen.

As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Then, not only can she kill Ye Guichen, eliminating future troubles, but she can also obtain the Seven-colored Lotus Jade. Whether it’s auctioned off or given to the people of Eternal Life Hall, it would be definitely beneficial to the Luo Family.

”How’s that?” Su Ze squinted, asking.

Luo Qianqi didn’t rush to agree, ”Why should I trust you?”

”Ye Guichen and I cannot coexist under heaven, I vow to kill him!” Su Ze gritted his teeth, ”He took away the person I loved and constantly suppressed me. Yet, unfortunately, his cultivation isn’t weak. I can’t do it alone, I need someone to help.”

”Really?” Luo Qianqi smiled, extending her hand, ”Since that’s the case, happy cooperation.”

”Haha, happy cooperation.” Su Ze shook hands with Luo Qianqi, the smile on his lips growing stronger.

After Su Ze left, Lou Yunbai asked in confusion, ”Miss Luo, since that Ye Guichen has the Seven-colored Lotus Jade, why should we share it with Su Ze? We can handle it ourselves without giving that kid Su Ze a share.”

Luo Qianqi sighed softly, saying gloomily, ”Of course I understand this principle, but you haven’t seen Ye Guichen’s cultivation firsthand. There are risks involved. Furthermore, with the Dragon Teeth name, we can eliminate a lot of doubts. In case the information is leaked, someone can bear it for our Luo Family, so people won’t think we are doing shady deals.”

Lou Yunbai, upon hearing this, felt genuinely impressed, ”Miss Luo has thought it through well. Lou Yunbai admires!”

...

Ye Guichen was naturally unaware that Su Ze was scheming against him.

The auction started quickly.

Everything in the front was antiquities, but Ye Guichen wasn’t interested at all. Many were from ancient tombs, valuable yet rarely exceeding a million.

The whole morning, a dozen items were auctioned, and Luo Qianqi had nearly earned tens of millions, making quite a profit.

However, many people here were attracted by the Seven-colored Lotus Jade, so the real excitement hadn’t started yet.

It wasn’t until the evening that there was any movement about the Seven-colored Lotus Jade.

Some people were getting impatient.

”Hey, isn’t there supposed to be an auction for the Seven-colored Lotus Jade? When will it start? If it doesn’t start soon, I’m leaving,” said a bald, fat man.

He shouted at the host, looking irritated.

”Lao Hei, what’s the rush? Haha, many of us are here for that thing today. As the saying goes, good things come to those who wait. Judging by your attitude, it seems you’re confident about that piece!” A middle-aged man in a loose robe nearby looked at the bald man with a smiling face.

The bald man turned to look at the middle-aged man, seemingly recognizing him, and cursed, ”Old Yu, don’t you fucking talk nonsense here. What, you want to try me today?”

”Haha, Lao Hei, try? Sure, you think you’re the only one with money?”

The middle-aged man looked disdainful, not taking the bald man to heart at all.

”Damn, talking big here is useless. We’ll see for real later!” The bald man seemed somewhat afraid of the middle-aged man, cursing under his breath.

Ye Guichen turned to look at them, puzzled, ”These two seem quite wealthy.”

Feng Wuji chuckled, ”Wealthy my ass, just bumpkins.”

”You know them?” Ye Guichen asked curiously.

Feng Wuji nodded, ”Of course I do. That bald fat guy is in the northwest mining coal, named Feng Zhizhang, others call him Lao Hei. He might seem wealthy to others, but in front of our Feng Family, he’s just a small fry.”

Saying this, Feng Wuji looked proud.

Then, he pointed to the middle-aged man, ”That person is Yu Hualong, known as Old Yu. He’s in aquaculture and supposedly started with fish farming. Now his assets are spread along the coastal areas, on par with Feng Zhizhang. Unexpectedly, such small fries come here to flaunt, quite embarrassing.”

Clearly, in Feng Wuji’s eyes, these two were nothing.

Ye Guichen was a bit surprised, ”Unexpectedly, you know so much?”

Feng Wuji felt a bit embarrassed being praised by Ye Guichen, ”Hehe, master, you flatter me. Our Feng Family, though not good in martial arts, dare to claim second in making money, no one in Hua Country can claim first without serious consideration.”

Speaking of this, Feng Wuji scratched his head, ”Not just Hua Country, globally, anyone with significant achievements, I can know eight or nine out of ten. No choice, our Feng Family has been learning this since childhood. Grandfather always instructs me, to know both oneself and the enemy is the key to a hundred victories, so I must understand the market.”

Ye Guichen fully agreed with Feng Wuji’s words, indeed, Feng Family’s ways of making money were not to be underestimated. Their wealth wasn’t obtained easily.

”Everyone, since you’ve all waited long enough, the finale Seven-colored Lotus Jade is about to come on stage. Feast your eyes!” At this moment, accompanied by the host’s loud voice, a lady ushered a transparent bulletproof glass box onto the stage.

Inside the box was a piece of Seven-colored Lotus Jade.

”Damn, that’s the Seven-colored Lotus Jade, doesn’t look special!”

”Yeah, someone offered a hundred billion to buy, tsk tsk, truly wealthy.”

”I’ll offer a hundred billion, hurry up!”

Before the host could announce the starting price, Feng Zhizhang hastily raised his hand.
