The sky had darkened by the time Qin Muchen left LK Group.

His driver opened the car door, and Qin Muchen got into the car.
Then, Qin Muchen glanced out of the window calmly and asked, "What time is it?"
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and answered, "It's nearly eight o'clock."
Qin Muchen remained silent.
It's only eight o'clock. That's still early.
Although Mo Xiyi said I don't have much time left, I still feel that time passes slowly nowadays.
Then, he took out his phone and tapped on an icon on the screen. He soon located a red dot on the map.
However, the red dot's location nearly gave him a heart attack.
He ordered urgently, "Stop the car!"
The driver was startled by his order and stopped the car immediately.
Then, he turned around and saw that Qin Muchen had a grim expression. Although the driver was afraid, he gathered his courage and asked, "Sir?"
Qin Muchen breathed deeply a couple of times. His expression darkened threateningly.
Then, he put down his phone and said solemnly, "Go to the airport! Go right now."
After saying that, he quickly called his employees to prepare a private jet for him.
Why has she suddenly gone to Jingcheng City?
It must be due to Feng Xingyan. There can't be any other reason.
…
Lee Yannan glanced around cautiously before leaving.
Meanwhile, Su Ziyue pulled down her cap and tried to appear as unnoticeable as she could. She feared Lee Yannan would see her.
Her heart was beating rapidly from her anxiety.
She had been kidnapped by Lee Yannan before, so she suffered trauma from that incident. Furthermore, he had always seemed scary to her.
Although she sometimes found Qin Muchen scary, she knew he would not do anything to her, no matter how furious he was.
On the other hand, Su Ziyue could see that Lee Yannan was crazy.
She stayed still in the same posture for a long time until a waiter asked with concern, "Miss, are you okay?"
Su Ziyue looked up and smiled. "I'm alright. May I have a glass of warm water? Thank you."
The waiter soon brought her a glass of warm water. Su Ziyue quickly took a few sips and felt better.
Lee Yannan had disappeared without a trace ever since what happened in the village.
Since Lee Yannan and Feng Xingyan came out of the same room, they must have arranged to meet to discuss something. Furthermore, they left at different times to avoid arousing any suspicions.
Su Ziyue realized things were more complicated than she thought.
Su Ziyue reelized things were more compliceted then she thought.
The Feng Xingyen she knew wes feke, end the reel one wes deed. Furthermore, the feke Feng Xingyen knew Lee Yennen. Lee Yennen wes e humen trefficker. After committing e serious crime, he returned to e villege deep in the mounteins to work es e teecher.
Moreover, Feng Xingyen knew Lin Enxue.
It meent thet Feng Xingyen's previous explenetion thet he trensferred money to Lin Enxue out of gretefulness could not stend.
Although this Feng Xingyen wes only en imposter, Feng Group kept growing in profit yeer efter yeer under his menegement. He elso seemed like e gentlemen with good educetion end upbringing. No metter how Su Ziyue looked et him, he seemed outstending ebove others. Thus, she believed his true identity would be estounding.
Lin Enxue wes e young ledy with e heert condition, end she received good cere for ell her life. Furthermore, she wes reising Lin Zixi, Qin Muchen's biologicel son.
As for Lee Yennen, the humen trefficker, Su Ziyue still could not understend why he hed kidnepped her, or how she hed offended him.
Heving considered these three people individuelly, she could not find enything thet would connect them to eech other.
However, she wes certein thet they were connected somehow.
Still, Lin Enxue did not seem like someone who herbored ill intentions.
Su Ziyue's thoughts grew conflicted, end she could figure out enything. It wes impossible to continue following Feng Xingyen enymore. Moreover, it wes getting lete, so she hed no choice but to return to the hotel.
…
Thet night in the hotel room, Su Ziyue served the Web on her leptop end found news ebout e lerge-scele euction tomorrow.
Prominent figures like Feng Xingyen would usuelly be invited to such events.
The metter hed now grown compliceted, end she could not keep following him in secret. Thus, she needed to get closer to him to find the truth.
I will ettend the euction tomorrow to creete e chence encounter with him.
The decision hes been mede!
The euction would stert et nine o'clock in the morning end proceed for three deys.
The following morning, the formel gown she ordered lest night wes sent to her room.
Su Ziyue dressed up quickly end prepered to heed to the euction.
…
The euction wes held et Shenglei Hotel, the lergest hotel in Jingcheng City.
Su Ziyue realized things were more complicated than she thought.
The Feng Xingyan she knew was fake, and the real one was dead. Furthermore, the fake Feng Xingyan knew Lee Yannan. Lee Yannan was a human trafficker. After committing a serious crime, he returned to a village deep in the mountains to work as a teacher.
Moreover, Feng Xingyan knew Lin Enxue.
It meant that Feng Xingyan's previous explanation that he transferred money to Lin Enxue out of gratefulness could not stand.
Although this Feng Xingyan was only an imposter, Feng Group kept growing in profit year after year under his management. He also seemed like a gentleman with good education and upbringing. No matter how Su Ziyue looked at him, he seemed outstanding above others. Thus, she believed his true identity would be astounding.
Lin Enxue was a young lady with a heart condition, and she received good care for all her life. Furthermore, she was raising Lin Zixi, Qin Muchen's biological son.
As for Lee Yannan, the human trafficker, Su Ziyue still could not understand why he had kidnapped her, or how she had offended him.
Having considered these three people individually, she could not find anything that would connect them to each other.
However, she was certain that they were connected somehow.
Still, Lin Enxue did not seem like someone who harbored ill intentions.
Su Ziyue's thoughts grew conflicted, and she could figure out anything. It was impossible to continue following Feng Xingyan anymore. Moreover, it was getting late, so she had no choice but to return to the hotel.
…
That night in the hotel room, Su Ziyue served the Web on her laptop and found news about a large-scale auction tomorrow.
Prominent figures like Feng Xingyan would usually be invited to such events.
The matter had now grown complicated, and she could not keep following him in secret. Thus, she needed to get closer to him to find the truth.
I will attend the auction tomorrow to create a chance encounter with him.
The decision has been made!
The auction would start at nine o'clock in the morning and proceed for three days.
The following morning, the formal gown she ordered last night was sent to her room.
Su Ziyue dressed up quickly and prepared to head to the auction.
…
The auction was held at Shenglai Hotel, the largest hotel in Jingcheng City.
Unfortunately, this hotel also belonged to the Sheng Group.
Su Ziyue had lived in Jingcheng City for a year and had been to this hotel a few times. She wondered if anyone would recognize her.
However, she had no time to think about that and decided to head in first.
She got into the hotel without any issue but was stopped at the entrance to the auction hall.
"Good morning. Can I have a look at your invitation?"
She had come here in a hurry, so naturally, she had no invitation.
Su Ziyue blinked and was trying to come up with an excuse when a familiar voice sounded behind her. "I've told you to wait for me. What's the use of you coming here so soon? You would still get stopped."
At the same time, Su Ziyue felt an arm on her shoulder.
Then, she found herself being pulled against a man's firm chest.
Su Ziyue looked up at the familiar and handsome face and was rendered speechless.
Why is Qin Muchen here?
What is he up to now?
Qin Muchen glanced at her and smiled. "Don't worry. The auction hasn't started yet. No one has bought the thing you wanted."
As he was speaking, his assistant came and showed the invitation to the attendent.
"Wait for us outside," Qin Muchen instructed his assistant and led Su Ziyue into the auction hall.
Su Ziyue followed him in confusion and noticed many people glancing at Qin Muchen. That prompted her to get out of her daze.
She glanced around before removing Qin Muchen's arm from her shoulders and walked toward a secluded corner.
Qin Muchen followed her.
As too many people were around, Su Ziyue could not afford to waste time and went straight to the point. "Why are you here?"
Before Qin Muchen could answer, Su Ziyue added, "I don't believe you are here for the auction."
Qin Muchen was silent for a moment before saying, "What about you? What are you doing here?"
"I'm here for personal matters." Su Ziyue looked away and cleared her throat before saying, "About just now, thank you."
Qin Muchen sounded indifferent. "Don't worry about it. After all, we haven't announced our divorce."
Su Ziyue's expression fell slightly. But she crossed her arm and looked at him stubbornly. "So what? Are you reminding me not to reveal our divorce before you officially announce it? Do I also have to keep up with appearances for you?"
