Chapter 8 Cutting off love
How did someone describe Quan Shijin in private?

He doesn't look like a person with any emotions, and it's hard to imagine any expression other than indifference on his face. In the minds of the Quan family, there are probably only power and status, and other things, even emotions, seem redundant.

When these somewhat redundant and even somewhat provocative words were spoken today, Song Chao was not only puzzled but also a little shocked.

He Ci looked over suddenly, squinting his eyes at Quan Shijin, but the man's expression was too dull and he couldn't tell what he meant.

Wen Ruoci was also a little surprised. When she raised her eyes, she saw Quan Shijin was also looking at her, but the man's eyes were too indifferent, and it was hard to imagine what emotions he could stir up.

He said this as if it were just a spur of the moment thing.

He Ci turned the ring on his left ring finger a few times, and suddenly chuckled, saying indifferently, "If Master Quan likes it, then I'll give it up."

Quan Shijin seemed to be interested, "Oh, how can I give it up?"

"Divorce, and give it to you."

Quan Shijin laughed faintly and hoarsely, "Really leaving?"

He Ci didn't say anything else. He was a little confused about what Quan Shijin meant.

The commotion at the door attracted quite a bit of attention, and the owner of the auction house came out from the back hall, sweating profusely.

Those who can come to the auction are all wealthy and powerful people, and he can't afford to offend any of them.

Fearing that something might really happen, he came out without delaying for a moment.

He looked at the four people with subtle auras present and spoke carefully, "Tea and snacks have been prepared, and the auction is about to begin. How about everyone please take a seat with me?"

Song Chao reminded, "Shijin, the auction is about to start, why don't we go in first?"

Quan Shijin lowered his eyes, as if he was thinking, and Song Chao didn't dare to disturb him.

After a while, the man said "hmm" indifferently.

Without looking at those people again, he turned and left.

After Quan Shijin left, He Ci felt his tense nerves relax.

He himself didn't realize how nervous he was when Quan Shijin asked him this question just now.

He looked towards Wen Ruoci and said in a cold and hard voice, "What is your relationship with Quan Shijin?"

Seeing that He Ci was about to explode with anger, Wen Ruoci didn't want to cause any trouble at the door of the auction house, so she explained, "We didn't say a word from beginning to end, what's the matter?"

He Ci didn't believe it and pressed, "If you two really have nothing to do with each other, why would he say all this?"

Li Fei just found it funny. "Mr. He, maybe Mr. Quan can't stand you bullying Ruoci like this, or do you really think that Ruoci's charm has reached the point where everyone loves her?"

Wen Ruoci was indeed very beautiful, but he didn't believe that given Quan Shijin's identity and status, he had never seen anyone more beautiful and gorgeous than Wen Ruoci.

But he was even more unconvinced that the high and mighty Young Master Quan would suddenly say such inexplicable words.

He took a few steps forward and grabbed her chin with his hand, as if he wanted to crush it. "You'd better not let me know that you're having an affair with another man behind my back. Otherwise, you'll die, and the Wen family will go bankrupt because of you..."

Wen Ruoci slapped his hand away, "Does it really make you feel so happy to embarrass me like this?"

He Ci sneered, "With such an innocent face, it really gives people the illusion that I am bullying you."

But even if he forgot everything, he would never forget her ruthless look.

He looked down at her and said, "Yes, it makes me happy to see you in trouble."

After saying that, he didn't even look at Wen Ruoci anymore and turned to walk into the auction house.

Zhou Ying seemed to have just reacted and hurriedly followed.

She had one thing on her mind.

He Ci just said that if Quan Shijin was interested in Wen Ruoci, he would divorce her. I don’t know if this is true.

God knows she hopes these two people will get divorced every day.

Sometimes, once a thought arises, it is like a desire that cannot be controlled.

Li Fei had a bad temper. She couldn't help but want to curse, and she felt even more indignant for Wen Ruoci, "Ruoci, how on earth can you stand him now?"

She used to think that this Young Master He had some potential to be a yandere, but now it has become completely paranoid.

Wen Ruoci lowered her eyes, "I can't stand it, but it's not that easy to get out of this unscathed."

Li Fei was silent for a while.

It was He Shao who started it back then, so if we want to end it now, does it have to be He Shao who ends it too?
She sighed slightly and took Wen Ruoci's arm, "Forget it, we finally came to the auction house, so let's not mention the annoying people." She paused here, "But you really have nothing to do with Master Quan?"

If she had not forgotten, Wen Ruoci also said that Young Master Quan gave her an umbrella.

Would someone like him really suddenly become kind-hearted?

Not to mention that He Ci didn't believe it, she didn't believe it either.

Wen Ruoci had a blank expression on her face, "We really have no relationship."

"Then why did he say all this today?"

Even if someone else said it, she wouldn't be so confused.

Wen Ruoci curled her hair with her fingers, as if thinking, "Maybe... he just returned to China and felt that he had encountered something funny."

Li Fei: "..."

Can she believe it?

Wen Ruoci obviously didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, so she pulled Li Fei's sleeve and said, "Let's go in."

Quan Shijin was too unusual, Song Chao felt a little uneasy. He hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but speak, "Shijin..."

Quan Shijin didn't even stop, "What?"

Song Dynasty, "Wen Ruoci is He Ci's wife, a serious one, with proof."

Quan Shijin stopped walking all of a sudden, turned around and looked at him with some displeasure, "I know, I don't need you to remind me."

Song Chao couldn't explain it, he just felt that the air around him had inexplicably dropped by several degrees.

What's worse, I felt a dull pain in the wound on my shoulder.

The owner of the auction personally welcomed Quan Shijin and others to the top floor attic.

The room was filled with the aroma of tea, with incense burning, and a tea server waiting nearby.

Quan Shijin took a glance and said indifferently, "Everyone get out."

The boss quickly asked them all to leave. He said respectfully, "Master Quan, Master Song, if you need anything else, please let me know."

Song Chao glanced at Quan Shijin and waved his hand, "We'll call you if we need you. Go down first."

"Yes."

The boss retreated respectfully.

Quan Shijin found a comfortable seat with a good view and sat down.

From this position you can basically see everything that happens downstairs.

Song Chao sat down opposite him without saying a word.

Wen Ruoci caused quite a stir when she appeared.

"Who is that? Why does he look so familiar?"

"You don't even know her. She is He Ci's wife, Wen Ruoci."

"Who was the person who just walked in with He Ci's arm?"

"It's Zhou Ying, Master He's new girlfriend."

"Rumor has it that they don't get along, and that's absolutely true. Not only did the couple go to an auction alone, but Young Master He even showed up with his new girlfriend without any scruples. He really didn't give her any face at all..."

"It's quite common for wealthy couples to have their own affairs in private. Now that this has come to light, why don't these two get divorced?"

"Who knows? Maybe the Wen family is reluctant to give up the resources brought by the He family."

Everyone was talking, but Wen Ruoci ignored them and found a seat to sit down.

Li Fei really disliked this group of people. They didn't know anything about the inside story, but they were just gossiping. How could Ruo Ci be reluctant to give up the He family's resources? It was purely because Young Master He was monopolizing her and refused to divorce. They would rather be a pair of resentful couples than let go of each other and find happiness.

But soon the conversation faded away because they saw the light in the attic on the top floor was on, and all their attention was drawn to the figure inside the attic.

The owner of the auction house would rather keep the top floor attic empty than open it to the public easily.

It was actually open today, and everyone was really curious about who was inside, so they all looked over.
