Rich Parents Found Me After I Got a Tycoon System? Yeah, I'm Not Interested novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: A Hundred Million as a Decoration?

Li Yuexing and the other two walked into the private suite, smiling. The look they gave Lu Yunque was full of meaning.

’Who would’ve thought? Lu Yunque—Mr. "Women-Are-Nothing-But-Trouble," the one who kept his distance from all women—had actually fallen for a little girl who hadn’t even graduated yet.’

Lu Yunque: ’Sometimes, I really want to take a knife to certain people.’

"You all came? Didn’t the elders at home have anything to say about it?"

’He had been granted special permission to move about freely because he’d told his grandfather he was going to find a daughter-in-law for the Lu Family. But what was the deal with these guys?’

"All we had to do was tell them we were coming to see you. They were practically tripping over themselves to approve."

Li Yuexing cracked a small joke.

Lu Yunque: ’As if I’d believe you.’

Meanwhile, as soon as Sheng Yang entered the suite, he bounded over to Yun Zijin:

"Sister Yun, if I’d known you wanted to come to the auction, I would’ve brought you! You shouldn’t have had to trouble Brother Lu."

After speaking, Sheng Yang leaned closer to Yun Zijin and lowered his voice. "Did Brother Lu extort a bunch of stuff from you?"

In Sheng Yang’s eyes, Lu Yunque was a workaholic who only knew work. Romance was a joke to his Brother Lu.

Yun Zijin, on the other hand, was momentarily at a loss for how to answer. ’Say that Lu Yunque invited me of his own accord?’

’That doesn’t sound very believable, does it? But it’s the truth!’

"Sheng Yang! If you don’t know how to talk, then don’t! I invited Miss Yun. What’s this about extortion and blackmail? What kind of trashy soap operas have you been watching lately?"

Lu Yunque returned just in time to hear Sheng Yang bad-mouthing him in front of Yun Zijin. He immediately dragged the man away from her side and sat down in his place.

"No, wait! Brother Lu, since when did you get so close with Sister Yun?"

’Among all of us, aren’t I the one who’s closest to Sister Yun?’

Sheng Yang’s face was a mask of confusion. He just knew something must have happened that he didn’t know about.

After greeting the others, Yun Zijin turned her attention to the auction. Just as the bidding below was nearing its end, Yun Zijin decisively joined the fray.

The first price she entered was 5 million.

"Wait, Sister Yun, you’re the one bidding? Don’t tell me you were the one bidding just now, too?"

Seeing Yun Zijin expertly type in her bid, Sheng Yang thought of the Luminous Pearl that had just been sold for ten million.

’In his opinion, that Luminous Pearl was worth eight million at most. Its diameter was a little on the small side, after all.’

"Yep, that was me."

Yun Zijin didn’t look at Sheng Yang, answering subconsciously as she continued to enter her bid.

"Brother Lu, that’s not right of you. When you’re out and about, how can you let a girl pay?"

Li Yuexing was the type who loved to stir up trouble for the fun of it.

But Yun Zijin didn’t see it that way and retorted:

"I was only able to attend this auction thanks to Mr. Lu’s invitation. It’s only natural that I bid for the things I want myself.

Logically, I should probably bid on a gift for Mr. Lu to show my gratitude. That’s a good idea! Mr. Lu, is there anything on the list you want? How about I bid on it and give it to you?"

Yun Zijin’s eyes lit up. She then turned to Lu Yunque, her big eyes seemingly filled with stars.

Li Yuexing: ’I should have kept my mouth shut! I just handed Old Lu a free gift.’

"No need. There’s only one item I have my eye on today, and it’s a birthday gift for my grandfather.

If you want to thank me, how about you treat me to a meal?"

’This way, he’d have a reason to see her again.’

"Count me in, count me in!"

Sheng Yang, being broke, had a reflexive reaction upon hearing about a free meal.

To avoid starving, he had to go home for every meal these days. The chance to eat out was something he’d been dreaming of for a while.

Sheng Hao: ...

’This foolish little brother of mine... he’s probably a lost cause.’
