To defend his home and protect his manly dignity, Lin Xingwen had to develop his own power, grow reluctantly, and protect the wealthy matron.

Chapter 120 Auction

The banquet hall was abuzz with life as Zheng Yufei, arm in arm with me, wove through the crowd, exchanging pleasantries without pause.

Not until Tang Qi took to the stage and announced the start of the evening's charity auction did the crowd begin to drift away.

Yu Fei and I took our seats in a private room on the second floor, where seating was correlated with one's net worth; smaller businesses were only allowed on the first floor, while major enterprises like the Zheng family had rooms on the second floor.

Shortly after, a beautiful waitress knocked on our door, followed by a male server with a cart, upon which rested two steaks and a bottle of wine.

After giving Yu Fei a list of auction items, the waitress bowed gracefully and slowly withdrew.

Yu Fei flipped through the list at hand, while I, savoring my steak and wine, appeared especially content.
