NOVEL NEXT Chapter 101: Invitation to settle down
Old Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "Go and inform her that she is not allowed to go and that other people from the Zhou family will go instead. Humph, how can it be her turn for such a good thing!"
Her tone was full of domineering and unreasonable.
The housekeeper looked embarrassed and lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid this won't work. The invitation letter has Zhou Qingxuan's name on it, and it clearly states that no one else can go except Zhou Qingxuan. Moreover, the people in the An family also specifically explained that if someone is replaced, it will be regarded as The Zhou family gives up this invitation."
Mrs. Zhou was so angry that she was trembling all over. She tightly grasped the armrests of the chair with both hands, her finger joints turned white from the exertion. Her eyes were wide open, as if she was about to spit out fire, but there was nothing she could do.
After a while, she finally said bitterly: "Huh! That girl is so cheap!!"
After Zhou Kai learned that Zhou Qingxuan had received the invitation letter to the Anjia auction, he immediately became furious and rushed to Xuantian Sect angrily.
As soon as he entered the gate of Xuantian Sect, he started shouting loudly: "Zhou Qingxuan, you don't know the heights of heaven and earth, how come you can get an invitation letter from the An family!"
His voice resounded throughout the sect, attracting many disciples to look at him sideways.
At this time, Zhou Qingxuan was discussing the auction with Shen Lang and others. When she heard Zhou Kai's noise, she frowned and walked out with disgust.
When Zhou Kai saw Zhou Qingxuan, he became even more furious. He pointed at her nose and cursed: "You, a bitch from the side clan, are you worthy of attending the An family's auction?"
Zhou Qingxuan looked at him coldly and said, "Zhou Kai, this invitation letter was given to me by the An family. What does it have to do with you?"
Zhou Kai was furious and rushed forward to take action: "I must teach you a lesson today!"
Seeing this, Shen Lang quickly stood in front of Zhou Qingxuan and scolded: "Zhou Kai, don't be so presumptuous! This is Xuantian Sect, not a place for you to act wild!"
Zhou Kai couldn't hear it, but he still wanted to rush over with all his teeth and claws.
At this moment, the senior brother of Xuantian Sect came over. He looked majestic and shouted: "Zhou Kai, how unbecoming are you for making such a scene here!"
When Zhou Kai saw his eldest brother, he was still a little wary, but he still said tough: "Elder brother, this is our Zhou family's family matter, please stay out of it!"
The senior brother sneered: "It's my business to cause trouble in our Xuantian Sect! If you don't restrain yourself, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zhou Kai's face turned green and white, and the disciples around him pointed and laughed at his gaffe.
Zhou Kai felt his face was dull, but he didn't know how to get off the stage. He stood there in a stalemate, looking very embarrassed.
In the end, under the criticism of everyone, Zhou Kai could only say bitterly: "Zhou Qingxuan, just wait for me!"
Then he left Xuantian Sect in despair.
His embarrassing appearance was seen by many people, and he became the laughing stock of everyone.
After Zhou Kai left Xuantian Sect in despair, the anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
He returned to Zhou's house and cried to Mrs. Zhou about the humiliation he had suffered in Xuantian Sect.
"Grandma, you have to make the decision for your grandson! That Zhou Qingxuan humiliated me in every possible way in the Xuantian Sect by relying on the invitation letter from the An family, and Shen Lang and the senior brother of the Xuantian Sect also helped her! "Zhou Kai burst into tears, his face full of grievances.
Mrs. Zhou looked at her grandson distressedly and said through gritted teeth: "How dare this ungrateful girl treat my grandson like this!"
Zhou Kai pulled Old Mrs. Zhou's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Grandma, you must help me vent this anger. I really can't swallow this bad breath."
Old Mrs. Zhou patted Zhou Kai's hand, with a fierce look in her eyes, and said, "Don't worry, grandson, grandma will definitely find an opportunity to help you vent your anger. That girl is so arrogant now, we must not let her be proud for too long."
Zhou Kai immediately showed a proud smile on his face and said: "I know that my grandmother loves me the most. I must teach her a lesson and let her know that our Zhou family is not someone she can disobey casually."
Mrs. Zhou nodded and said, "Don't worry, grandma has her own sense of proportion."
Old Mrs. Zhou narrowed her eyes, secretly thinking about how to teach Zhou Qingxuan a harsh lesson.
The next day, Zhou Qingxuan and Eighth Senior Brother arrived at the auction early.
The place is bustling with people coming and going, including celebrities and dignitaries from all walks of life.
Many people greeted Zhou Qingxuan, and they all came from families or forces that were much higher than the Zhou family.
Zhou Qingxuan was a little flattered. Faced with these warm greetings, she seemed a little at a loss, and her hands unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes.
The Eighth Senior Brother keenly noticed Zhou Qingxuan's nervousness, patted her shoulder gently, and gently enlightened: "Junior Sister Qingxuan, don't be nervous. They are just looking at the invitation letter from the An family and are polite to you. You just have to stay calm and take it in stride.”
Zhou Qingxuan took a deep breath, nodded, and said: "Eighth Senior Brother, I understand, but I have never seen such a scene before, and I was a little panicked for a moment."
The Eighth Senior Brother smiled and encouraged: "Relax and treat it as an ordinary gathering. You have to believe in yourself. With Anjia's protection, no one will easily embarrass you."
Zhou Qingxuan gradually calmed down after listening to the eighth senior brother's words, and tried hard to stay calm.
Xue Lingling and Xue Mengya accompanied Shen Lang to attend the auction.
As soon as they entered the venue, they attracted the attention of many people.
As soon as they appeared, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Lang.
Xue Lingling was keenly aware that everyone treated Shen Lang with more respect than they treated herself.
The look in his eyes was not only a polite greeting, but also a kind of awe and flattery.
Xue Lingling was filled with doubts and couldn't help but move closer to Shen Lang and asked softly: "Shen Lang, what is this? Why do everyone have such a different attitude towards you, and even respect you more than they do me?"
Shen Lang was slightly startled, with a confused look on his face, and pretended not to know, "I don't know, maybe everyone misunderstood something. Maybe they recognized the wrong person, maybe."
Seeing Shen Lang's answer, Xue Lingling knew that he didn't want to say more and couldn't continue to ask questions, so she could only suppress this doubt in her heart for the time being.
When everyone arrived, the bidding began.
The auctioneer stood on the stage in high spirits and said loudly: "Dear guests, this is a piece of land with huge potential. It is a rare opportunity. Don't miss it!"
When Xue Mengya heard this, she immediately became interested, her eyes flashed with excitement, and she turned to look at Shen Lang eagerly and said, "Shen Lang, this land looks good, the location seems to be okay, and the surrounding development prospects are It should be good, I want to take a photo.”
Shen Lang frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his expression, but he did not stop him. He just reminded softly: "Mengya, bidding is not a trivial matter. You must think carefully about it. Although this land looks good, there are also some problems. There may be problems we don't know about."
