Now reading: Chapter 54 - 53: Feeding the Love Rival a Mouthful of Dog Fo from Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera, a Fantasy novel by Drawing a Blade to Catch the Falling Cherry Blossoms.

The auction lasted for about three hours. In addition to the four-million-yuan Maybach, Ye Ling later spent around twenty million on a Qing Dynasty tea set.

Ye Ling had been wrestling with what gift to bring when he t Ning Tianliang later. After all, it was his first ti eting his father-in-law, and showing up empty-handed would be rude.

And given Ning Tianliang’s status, an ordinary gift probably wouldn’t impress him.

As for sothing expensive, with the man’s resources, was there anything he couldn’t afford?

So, a gift was a must, but more importantly, it had to be thoughtful.

This tea set was undoubtedly quite suitable. First, Ning Tianliang was a connoisseur of tea ceremonies, so the gift made perfect sense. Second, as a Qing Dynasty item, it was an antique and would be a respectable gift.

After the auction ended, Ye Ling went with Su Yun to settle the paynt. Su Yun then handed the Qing Dynasty tea set and a car key to Ye Ling.

"The Maybach is in the Celestial Immortal Pavilion’s underground garage right now. You can pick it up anyti."

Su Yun smiled faintly and added,

"I just didn’t expect... you to be so rich, little brother?"

Su Yun blinked, her gaze toward Ye Ling carrying a hint of sothing different.

She knew Ye Ling was wealthy, of course. After all, he’d previously driven a forty-million-yuan Pagani Zonda R... But today, Ye Ling had just dropped twenty-four million in one go!

Such a huge expense was not sothing an ordinary second-generation heir could afford.

’I bet even Yun Tianlan of the Yun Family wouldn’t be so willing to spend this kind of money on a tea set...’

"Heh, aren’t you quite the hidden talent yourself, Miss Su? So young, yet already sitting in the CFO position at Xia Country Construction Bank. No wonder all those n are so obsessed with you."

Ye Ling replied with a slight smile.

Just now in the auction hall, he had overheard so people talking about Su Yun and learned her identity.

To his surprise, this Su Yun was quite popular. In fact, many people in attendance had co specifically for her.

To be honest, for people who had reached their level in the upper echelons of society, a re mansion or two, or a couple of nice cars, held limited appeal...

The reason so many had shown up today, to put it bluntly, was to show support for Su Yun, or maybe just to make their faces known. They hoped to use the opportunity to curry favor and win the beauty’s affection.

"Giggle... I wonder, can I earn your obsession too, little brother?"

Su Yun doubled over with laughter, her voice full of playful teasing.

"Forget it, forget it. I’m a taken man."

Ye Ling imdiately shrank back, speaking a little sheepishly.

It was no wonder this Su Yun could attract the attention of so many scions of noble families. The seductive aura about her seed completely natural.

Thankfully, Ye Ling’s self-control was far beyond that of an ordinary person... If any other young man in the pri of his youth heard what Su Yun just said, his blood would have probably rushed to his head.

"Tch, so you’re a henpecked husband after all."

Su Yun didn’t tease Ye Ling any further. She waved her hand and said, "Well, big sister is going to take her leave. Otherwise, your little girlfriend might get jealous."

Ye Ling watched her leave, a helpless look in his eyes.

’That vixen!’

But Ye Ling really was a little afraid Ning Ruoxi would get jealous, so he didn’t dare linger and returned directly to the main hall.

At this mont, Ning Ruoxi and Luo Yue were still in their seats, but standing before them was a man in a white suit who had appeared at so unknown point.

Yun Tianlan!

Yun Tianlan was currently making small talk with Ning Ruoxi, who looked slightly annoyed. She couldn’t very well lash out, however, so she just responded absently.

Yun Tianlan, on the other hand, seed completely oblivious and was chatting away quite happily.

"Ye Ling, you’re back."

Ning Ruoxi suddenly saw Ye Ling return to the hall and imdiately waved at him excitedly.

’Finally,’ she thought, ’I’m free.’ As soon as Ye Ling had left, this Yun Tianlan had sidled up and started muttering next to her. He was driving her crazy!

The main issue was that Yun International and Ning International had a lot of business dealings, and her father, Ning Tianliang, also had so history with the Yun Family...

Otherwise, our Eldest Miss Ning would have told him to get lost long ago!

"Yeah, it’s all settled."

Ye Ling smiled slightly and walked over. He then glanced at Yun Tianlan with feigned confusion. "And this is...?"

"He’s Yun Tianlan."

Ning Ruoxi imdiately understood Ye Ling’s intention and went along with him. She then wrapped her arm around Ye Ling’s and introduced him to Yun Tianlan:

"This is my boyfriend, Ye Ling."

Seeing this rare display of intimacy from Ning Ruoxi, the smile on Yun Tianlan’s face clearly faltered for a mont.

However, he controlled his emotions well, and in no ti, a smile was once again plastered on his face.

"So you’re Ruoxi’s boyfriend... I didn’t expect that after such a short ti, Ruoxi would have found a boyfriend. We were in the sa class for all three years of high school, and I never heard of any guy who could catch her eye."

Yun Tianlan said with a smile.

Hearing this, the corner of Ye Ling’s mouth curved into a faint, cold smirk.

Although his words seed like a complint to Ye Ling on the surface, if you thought about it carefully, you could find many hidden anings.

First, he used the na ’Ruoxi,’ a form of address usually reserved for those who are close. Furthermore, he directly told Ye Ling that he and Ning Ruoxi had been high school classmates for three years, spending all that ti together day after day...

Wasn’t this just his way of telling Ye Ling that he and Ning Ruoxi had known each other for a long ti and had a very good, very intimate relationship?

If it were a normal introduction between friends, it would be fine. But to say such things in front of her boyfriend was clearly an attempt to stir up trouble.

"I don’t know him that well," Ning Ruoxi, seeing the situation, quickly explained in a low voice.

Although she had told Ye Ling about Yun Tianlan before, she was still a little afraid he would get the wrong idea.

Of course, Ye Ling wasn’t the type to be affected by a few words from Yun Tianlan.

"Oh, so you’re Ruoruo’s high school classmate. Is there anything else you two need to talk about? If not, we’ll be leaving soon. Ruoruo’s father wants to et ."

Ye Ling said as he ruffled Ning Ruoxi’s hair, his gaze toward her full of doting affection.

At that mont, Yun Tianlan’s expression completely froze.

He had originally wanted to needle Ye Ling. After all, what man could stand another man boasting in his face about how well he knew his girlfriend?

But Ye Ling didn’t give a damn about him. Instead, he just ca right out and said that he was about to et his father-in-law—and at the father-in-law’s personal request, no less!

It was a perfect reversal, basically force-feeding him a dose of PDA!
