Chapter 295: Qin Jia’s Conspiracy (3)
An Yiqing stared blankly at Old Master An, feeling a slight acidity in her nose. What virtues or abilities did she possess to engender such affection from Ye Chenghong and An Muyun, two elders! With such family members, she was content!
An Yiqing subtly sniffed her nose and nodded with a smile, "Grandfather, rest assured! I absolutely won’t let myself be wronged!"

In the trading hall of the Jade Stone Association, all the guests who had arrived found seats and settled in. There was a large display screen in front of the auction stage, where the results of the bidding would soon be revealed to everyone.
"Little girl, are you confident about this bidding?" Bai Yiming automatically ignored Gu Yelin, the human air cooler, choosing to sit down behind An Yiqing.
"Well, not bad." The girl nodded vaguely. Of course, she wouldn’t tell Bai Yiming that she had memorized all the prices in the bid box—umm, only Ah Lin knew this.
Before long, Duan Tang also walked in. His tranquil gaze landed on An Yiqing, revealing a deep tenderness.
"Girl, you’ve arrived early." He glanced at the spots around An Yiqing that were occupied by Gu Yelin, Bai Yiming, and Zhang Yuksheng, and couldn’t help but frown. His seemingly gentle gaze briefly met Zhang Yuksheng’s eyes with unclear implications.
Zhang Yuksheng felt the seat beside An Yiqing was too perilous; Duan Tang’s gaze gave him a shiver, and he very perceptively stood up.
"Ah... Head Duan, please sit here. I will sit in front of the miss," Zhang Yuksheng swiftly moved to a seat in front of An Yiqing, feigning ignorance.
Duan Tang smiled contentedly and slowly sat down beside the girl.
