Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Man glanced at Huang Yue from the corner of her eye, the sarcasm in her eyes almost overflowing. “I was the first to bid. If anyone was raising the price, it should be her.”

Huang Yue was stunned. “No matter what, you’re family. What’s wrong with giving in to each other? It’s not like you’ll lose a piece of flesh.”

“I just said that I don’t have a good relationship with them. Since we don’t have a good relationship, why should I give in?” Gu Man replied to Huang Yue’s words calmly.

Compared to Huang Yue’s panic, Gu Man’s calm expression had already given her the upper hand.

“Huang Yue, since when can’t you even tell right from wrong?” Old Master Cui’s voice was filled with dissatisfaction.

Huang Yue immediately shut her mouth. She did not want to anger Old Master Cui anymore. She was indeed a little irrational today.

Perhaps because her rationality had returned, Huang Yue did not cause trouble.

The subsequent auction went very smoothly. However, Gu Man originally wanted to buy a gift for Old Master Cui at this auction, but there was no outstanding jade at this small jade auction.

As the auction was about to end, Huang Yue took out her phone and typed something on it. She quickly stood up and left the auction.

Not long after Huang Yue left, Zhong Yao looked down at her cell phone and found an excuse to leave the auction.

At the door of the washroom, Huang Yue had already taken out powder and slapped it on her face. This was what Zhong Yao saw as soon as she entered.

She had an obedient smile on her face. “Miss Huang, why are you looking for me?”

At this moment, Huang Yue had already touched up her makeup. She looked at her face in the mirror and revealed a satisfied expression. “Do you know why 1 called you over?”

Zhong Yao recalled what had happened just now. What was worth noting was that Gu Man had saved the girl and argued with Gu Rou at the auction.

However, Huang Yue was with Gu Man. If Huang Yue came to look for her now, it was most likely because of Gu Man.

“Miss Huang, did you obtain any information related to Gu Man?” Zhong Yao looked up at Huang Yue and probed carefully.

When she saw the smile on Huang Yue’s face, Zhong Yao knew that she had guessed correctly.

“Do you know who came with us today? Old Master Cui.” Huang Yue did not hide this fact and said bluntly. She continued, “I have a recording here. Old Master Cui admitted that Gu Man is his granddaughter.”

Huang Yue stopped at nothing. As a member of the Gu family, Zhong Yao knew best what Gu Man’s identity was, so the identity of Old Master Cui’s granddaughter sounded fake.

Zhong Yao’s thoughts immediately became active, and a trace of calculation flashed across her eyes. “I understand.”

“I like to talk to smart people, but I won’t give you the recording now because there’s a risk of me being exposed.” Huang Yue walked out and patted Zhong Yao’s shoulder when she turned sideways. “I believe you can do this well.”

Zhong Yao nodded obediently and watched as Huang Yue left. She stayed in the washroom for a while before returning to the auction.

During this period of time, she had already told Gu Rou about this on her phone because once this matter blew up, Gu Rou would definitely be able to find out. At that time, her status would be in danger.

Zhong Yao knew very well why eggs could not be placed in the same cage. Only by currying favor with both sides could she maximize the benefits.

When Zhong Yao returned to the auction, it had already ended. She did not go in but chose to wait at the door for the Gu family to come out.

As Gu Man and the others were closer to the back and the door, Zhong Yao saw Gu Man first.

She smiled and grabbed Gu Man’s wrist. “Cousin, everyone in the family misses you very much. I hope you can go back and see them.”

Gu Man looked at her wrist and broke free without hesitation. “Is that so?”

The corners of her lips curled up, and there was only mockery in her eyes. She did not have any other emotions. After saying this, she did not stay any longer and followed Old Master Cui.

Old Master Cui belatedly realized that Gu Man did not follow.. He glanced behind her and asked, “The Gu family?”
