神奇按摩院的商业秘密

Due to the significant benefits brought by this prescription, the Tang family relied on it to support more than half of their household. The value of this prescription was far from ordinary—it could be considered a priceless treasure, and this statement was not an exaggeration.

However, the fact that such a prescription was being auctioned at the World Treasures Auction House also indicated the disparity in power and influence between the two parties. Other auction houses would hesitate to handle such an item, but the World Treasures Auction House had the confidence and capability to do so.

After this prescription was brought up to the stage by a handsome auctioneer, Zhai Yu could not calm down anymore. He walked to the huge glass wall and stared down without blinking.

He was the person in charge of this branch. For the sake of the World Treasures Auction House’s reputation, he could only brace himself and accept it. However, one could imagine the pressure he was under because of this.

Not to mention anything else, just after the news of this prescription was leaked, the Tang family sent people to talk to Zhai Yu more than once. The number of chips they had was also terrifying.

However, for the sake of the World Treasures Auction House’s credibility and reputation, Zhai Yu still decided to follow the rules despite the pressure from various aspects. That was why today’s scene happened.

Lets hope nothing happens.

Zhai Yu frowned and his eyes were extremely obscure. Seeing this, Chu Qing stood up and walked in front of Zhai Yu, standing side by side with him.

“I heard that it was the Li family who did it?” Chu Qing recalled the information he had obtained from Tang Ziyan.

Zhai Yu’s expression turned bitter as he replied, “It’s not as simple as it seems. This situation is quite complicated, and even I don’t fully understand it. How could the Tang family’s prescription end up in the hands of the Li family and be consigned to this auction house? It appears that there are significant internal issues within the Tang family.”

Chu Qing couldn’t help but chuckle. He found the situation quite amusing. It seemed like it was just another round of trivial matters to deal with. He had grown accustomed to such things. After all, the world was filled with all kinds of people and situations, just like the diverse bird species in a forest.

Furthermore, being a prominent and influential family, the Tang family was not exempt from internal conflicts. They faced issues related to the distribution of benefits, power struggles between legitimate and concubine family members, as well as concerns about their reputation. Each of these problems individually was already challenging to handle, but the Tang family had to deal with multiple simultaneous challenges, making it even more complicated and headache-inducing.

“30 million yuan!” Someone shouted downstairs. The starting price of this prescription was one yuan, and in the blink of an eye, it had risen to this level, and this was only the beginning.

As for the starting price of one yuan, it was also the seller’s request. Because he was not afraid of losing money.

“50 million.” After the person in front shouted the price, there was another family.

“100 million!”

“120 million!”

“200 million!”

As the bidding continued, the sound of exorbitant amounts of money being shouted echoed in the hall. Among the voices, Chu Qing recognized a familiar one—it was Tang Ziyan, a member of the Tang family.

She was also here and couldn’t be found on the first floor. Chu Qing guessed that she should be in a private room on the second floor like him.

In just a few minutes, the price had already risen to a shocking 460 million. This prescription had undoubtedly become the most valuable item in tonight’s auction.

The price of the Tang family’s prescription soared to a level surpassing even the highly valued meteoric iron and Cloudroot Stone. It reached a range comparable to the price of two bottles of ambrosia, although Chu Qing couldn’t help but consider the value of the Tao metal container separately. In his opinion, even a hundred such prescriptions couldn’t compare to the significance of the Tao metal.

At this point, Zhai Yu could not sit still. After giving Chu Qing an apologetic look, he walked out of the private room and went down to suppress the situation.

After Zhai Yu left, Chu Qing sat back on the sofa and realized that Ye Chenxi had finished her milk tea. She picked up the bottle of wine that Chu Qing had brought and took a sip. When Chu Qing found out, he stuck out his tongue playfully with an embarrassed expression.

“Hehe, I couldn’t hold it in. If you don’t like it, I won’t drink it in the future,” Ye Chenxi said with a smile.

Chu Qing frowned.

Ye Chenxi’s eyelids twitched. She thought that Chu Qing was angry and quickly changed the topic. “Oh? What happened downstairs? It’s so lively. Is it about the Tang family’s prescription?”

Chu Qing frowned even more.

Ye Chenxi felt a little scared and asked nervously, “What’s wrong?”

“Ye Chenxi, how old are you?” Chu Qing felt that he had to say something to Ye Chenxi.

“23 or 24. Why do you ask? Do you think I’m old?”

Chu Qing’s face twitched and he lectured her angrily, “Ye Chenxi, you’re already an adult. Other than the things between a man and a woman, what else do you care about?”

“Uh…” Ye Chenxi was a little confused. She touched Chu Qing’s forehead and said, “What’s wrong with you? You don’t have a fever either? Why do you suddenly look like a different person? Besides, what’s wrong with men and women? Don’t you want to do it?”

Chu Qing was rendered speechless by Ye Chenxi. He could only change his way of saying, “That day, I asked you for help to teach a woman a lesson.”

“Yes, and what about it?” Ye Chenxi continued.

“She’s dead.” Chu Qing was stating a fact.

“Dead?” Ye Chenxi looked extremely surprised.

“Aunt Ye killed her,” Chu Qing added.

Ye Chenxi was surprised again and could not help but ask, “Why?”

“Think about it yourself. I’m telling you this because I want you to know that you’re the legitimate daughter of the Ye family. From the looks of it, Aunt Ye wants you to inherit the family. In the past, Aunt Ye didn’t give you the power. Don’t you really know the reason?”

“After the previous attack, Aunt Ye sensed the imminent danger, which is why she started involving you in the family matters gradually. It was meant to prepare you for the future. But what about you? You’re still as unreliable as ever. Can’t you be more serious? Today, something significant happened to the Tang family. Did you not feel anything about it? Have you ever considered what you would do if a similar situation occurred in our Ye family, and you happened to be the head of the family at that time?” Chu Qing expressed his concerns in a serious tone, conveying his disappointment and urging Ye Chenxi to be more responsible.

Ye Chenxi lowered her head after being scolded by Chu Qing. She was not stupid. She was just afraid of trouble, so she was too lazy to think about it. After hearing Chu Qing’s words, Ye Chenxi understood why Chu Qing was angry. It was probably because he saw how heartless she was just now and expected better from her.

But why?

Ye Chenxi was rebellious and said impatiently, “Why do you sound so much like my mother? Please, you’re only 17 years old. Can you not be so mature? Otherwise, you won’t be cute.”

Ye Chenxi’s words almost choked Chu Qing, making it hard for him to catch his breath. Taking a deep breath, Chu Qing spoke with a serious tone, “Ye Chenxi, do you think I want to meddle in your trivial matters? I simply don’t want my woman to die in that position one day, unaware of how she met her end. And then you would expect me to collect your corpse and seek revenge.”

Chu Qing’s thoughts were clear. He had already considered Ye Chenxi as a part of his own, knowing that the Ye family would eventually belong to her in the future. Therefore, he didn’t want to see Ye Chenxi in a position where she had to scheme and harm others, putting herself at risk. He wanted to protect her and ensure her safety..
