Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 52 - 51: Auction [3]

Celestial Immortal Pavilion, located in Modu’s Hu Dong New District, was situated in a bustling area. The Pavilion itself was renowned as a high-end establishnt.

A casual al here often cost over a hundred thousand yuan!

Choosing this location for the auction also indicated, to so extent, that the attendees would be of high status!

When Ye Ling arrived at the venue with the two won, it was already packed.

The venue’s setup was quite simple. There was a raised platform at the front with a curtain behind it, and below the stage were dining tables laden with all sorts of delicacies.

Upon seeing Ye Ling arrive, Su Yun imdiately made her way around the venue and walked over.

"Young Master Ye, you’ve arrived."

Today, Su Yun wasn’t wearing her usual office attire. Instead, she had on a long, light purple lace dress. While it wasn’t revealing at all, it perfectly accentuated her figure, exuding the charm of a mature woman.

Even Ye Ling, who was used to seeing beautiful won, couldn’t help but show a hint of appreciation at the sight of her elegant appearance.

Su Yun might be slightly less stunning than Ning Ruoxi in terms of sheer looks, but she possessed a mature woman’s allure that Ning Ruoxi lacked.

Luo Yue looked at Su Yun, and her expression imdiately turned wary, especially when she noticed the woman’s chest was at least a C-cup. She gently tugged on Ning Ruoxi’s sleeve and whispered:

"Sister Ruoruo, this woman is a threat!"

"What nonsense are you talking about..."

Ning Ruoxi shot the girl a helpless glare.

She had complete faith in Ye Ling.

’After all, if Ye Ling really had any bad intentions, he wouldn’t have brought here today, would he?’

"And these two are..."

At that mont, Su Yun also noticed the two won behind Ye Ling, her face showing a hint of surprise.

Both won were truly beautiful. Even she, who was very confident in her own looks, felt that she couldn’t quite compare.

This was especially true of Ning Ruoxi, who exuded an unapproachable aura, like a celestial fairy banished to the mortal realm. She gave off a feeling of being soone you could admire from afar, but never touch.

Yes, this was Ning Ruoxi.

Only when she was with Ye Ling did she reveal that cute and playful side.

As for the reason, Ning Ruoxi didn’t know either.

’Perhaps this is what they call fate.’

It was like that ti on the plane. She, who had never asked a mber of the opposite sex for their WeChat, had a sudden whim and asked Ye Ling for his. Later, she even took the initiative to ask him out.

Looking back on it now, Ning Ruoxi found it all a bit surreal. ’I actually did so many things I thought I’d never do?’

This just proved the saying: love doesn’t need a reason, nor does it give a warning. It’s like a gust of wind that suddenly appears...

"This is my girlfriend, Ning Ruoxi. And this girl here is my girlfriend’s best friend, Luo Yue."

Ye Ling smiled slightly as he introduced them to Su Yun.

"Hello, my na is Su Yun."

Su Yun smiled, offering a perfectly polite greeting, then turned to Ye Ling. "Excuse , the auction is about to begin. You should find a place to sit. I need to go host."

Ye Ling nodded and led the two won to a table.

At the sa ti, he was rather surprised. He clearly hadn’t expected that a re branch manager would be qualified to host an auction of this caliber.

’Looks like there’s more to this Su Yun than ets the eye...’

Ye Ling stared at the beautiful figure on the stage, lost in thought.

’If she’s more than just a branch manager, then why did she ask for my WeChat that day?’

In reality.

It really wasn’t as complicated as Ye Ling thought. In fact, his previous guess was correct—Su Yun was genuinely just a little interested in his body~~ Of course, only a little interested.

Just then, Ye Ling suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist and couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath of cold air.

"Hey, you! What are you looking at?"

Before Ye Ling could even speak, Ning Ruoxi’s voice drifted over ominously.

Just from the sound of her voice, without even looking at her expression, Ye Ling could tell that Ning Ruoxi was already getting her feathers ruffled!

"Er... I was just thinking about sothing."

Ye Ling said, his survival instinct kicking in.

Ning Ruoxi was clearly not satisfied with this answer. She huffed lightly and asked, "Who’s prettier, or her?"

’Who’s prettier, or her?’

Hearing her question, Ye Ling was montarily stunned. Based on his understanding of Ning Ruoxi, her tone didn’t sound like she was truly angry.

And yet, she had asked that question.

’Could it be... she’s jealous?’

Having reached this conclusion, Ye Ling relaxed.

"Ruoruo, are you jealous?"

Ye Ling turned to look at Ning Ruoxi, a bemused smile on his face.

’Jealous!?’

The mont she heard Ye Ling’s words, Ning Ruoxi’s pretty face flushed crimson. Her gaze flickered, and she didn’t dare to et his eyes. "I... I am not..."

Yes, she was, in fact, just a little jealous. And, she wanted to know what Ye Ling was really thinking...

’Don’t they say on the internet that ’cute’ is worthless in the face of ’sexy’?’

The mature womanly charm that Su Yun possessed undoubtedly made her feel a little pressured.

Compared to her, she seed far too ’immature’.

"Then why are you asking such a silly question? Of course you’re the prettiest."

Ye Ling paid no mind to what she was thinking and simply stated it with an air of absolute certainty.

In that instant.

Ye Ling turned the tables, seizing the initiative!

"Hmph! I can’t trust the words of a womanizer."

Ning Ruoxi pouted, her voice full of disdain.

But inwardly, she was undoubtedly quite satisfied with his answer.

’Thank goodness, it seems Ye Ling prefers my type...’

The young woman’s coquettish pout was noticed by many of the n around them, who imdiately cast fiery gazes in her direction.

In truth, many people had noticed Ye Ling’s party of three the mont they entered. One reason was that all three were very attractive, and the other was that Su Yun had actually co to greet them personally!

Ye Ling might not have known Su Yun’s identity, but they certainly did. She was a graduate of Harvard University’s finance departnt in the United States, with three years of investnt experience on Wall Street.

She currently held the position of CFO—Chief Financial Officer—at Xia Country Construction Bank, responsible for managing all financial affairs!

This wasn’t the CFO of so small company, but the CFO of a state-owned bank. It was no exaggeration to call it an iron rice bowl!

And Ning Ruoxi’s beauty was simply on another level. Her slightly coquettish expression, in particular, gave people the feeling of a fairy fallen to earth, evoking a desire to cherish and protect her...

Therefore, even those in high positions who were used to seeing beautiful won couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.
