Chapter 373: Giving You a Chance

Pei Moyan originally thought Su Yuanshuang had won the bid.

But it turned out to be someone else.

Looking at Zheng Qian not far away, she couldn't recall when someone like him had appeared in the JZH circle.

Or perhaps... was this person from the Imperial Capital, Yanjing?

But his accent didn't sound like it; she was momentarily at a loss.

At this moment, the auction drew to a close.

The final item was an antique from a previous dynasty, supposedly an authentic work by a master.

But the transaction price was only three million; the spotlight had been completely stolen by Pei Moyan's ring.

After it ended, it was the usual time for socialites to mingle.

People gathered in twos and threes, exchanging connections and discussing potential future cooperation.

Many had their eyes on Zheng Qian and Su Yuanshuang, wanting to know these two prominent figures.

Anyone who could casually spend tens of millions on such things was definitely not ordinary.

But before anyone could surround Zheng Qian, he had already disappeared.

At this moment, he and Su Yuanshuang had arrived at the hotel's VIP lounge area.

Xu Yehan might be a playboy, but his father was definitely a big shot in business.

There was a reason why The Group, as the largest and most powerful high-end hotel chain in Shenzhen, was so successful.

Taking this hotel as an example, the top floor was a high-end banquet area, often hosting high-end cocktail parties.

The floors below the top, logically, should have been presidential suites, as the view was excellent.

But Xu Yehan's father, Xu Zhengsheng, didn't do that.

He adopted a high-end membership system, arranging many high-end suites here exclusively for top-tier members.

These rooms were not open to the public; only those from the upper echelons had the qualifications to stay in them.

The Pei family also held a very high status in Shenzhen.

Naturally, they had an exclusive suite here.

It was even more high-end than a presidential suite in terms of specifications.

Besides having three rooms, a living room, and a kitchen, it was also equipped with an independent tea room, specifically for discussing business.

Now, Zheng Qian and Su Yuanshuang were there.

Pei Moyan wasn't dressed ostentatiously, just in a Chanel suit, but her exquisite face was particularly eye-catching.

Holding a glass of red wine, she slightly raised her chin, looking at the two people in front of her thoughtfully.

"Originally, I thought that whoever won this ring, after the auction ended, I would pay them back to buy it, just as my own personal contribution to charity. But you two make it difficult for me."

Her voice matched her appearance, possessing a deep-seated coldness that kept people at a distance.

Su Yuanshuang clenched her hands slightly; she was a bit nervous.

Even though she had met Pei Moyan a few times, she was still overwhelmed by the other party's powerful aura.

She wanted to explain, but didn't know how to start, feeling somewhat panicked.

Zheng Qian gently squeezed her hand under the table, which made Su Yuanshuang feel less anxious.

Before speaking, Zheng Qian pushed the simple ring box to Pei Moyan.

"I already said at the auction that this ring is a gift for a beautiful lady."

"That lady is you, Miss Pei Moyan. Now, it is returned to its rightful owner."

Su Yuanshuang's delicate body trembled slightly, but she was also someone who had seen big scenes, so she didn't reveal anything in her expression.

However, inside, she was extremely disappointed. So... so the person Zheng Qian wanted to give it to wasn't me...

[Favorability - 5]

On the contrary, for Pei Moyan, her Favorability had reached 20 points.

This was already much better than an ordinary stranger.

"I cannot accept this ring, even though I like it very much."

Pei Moyan shook her finger, took a sip of red wine, and her cheeks turned slightly red, making her look even better.

She looked at Su Yuanshuang thoughtfully. "I know you, so I cannot accept it even more. I cannot afford to owe a favor worth sixty million. Besides, I am a person who has never liked owing favors."

"Calling you here today was just to convey these words."

"You can leave now; I have to rush to the airport later."

Was this an order to leave?

Su Yuanshuang had already been flustered by Zheng Qian.

Now she was even more distracted, feeling that the time and money costs just now had been completely wasted.

"If I am not mistaken, the red wine you are drinking now should be from the Burgundy region of France."

Zheng Qian suddenly spoke.

Pei Moyan raised her eyebrows, and Su Yuanshuang was very surprised.

After Zheng Qian's reminder, she realized that this red wine should be from Burgundy. But he... had he recognized it long ago?

Did Zheng Qian actually know so much about red wine?

"You also understand red wine?" Pei Moyan asked lightly.

"I know a little. Firm structure, rich flavor, with very rich Burgundy terroir characteristics. It's just that that place has always produced white wine, so this kind of red wine is rare; it doesn't seem to be a brand on the market."

In reality, after that cocktail party, he had specifically crammed a series of knowledge about various red wines.

In particular, he had spent a high price to hire a foreign Sommelier to give him targeted instruction.

The purpose was to avoid embarrassment in similar situations.

He didn't expect it to come in handy now.

In fact, Pei Moyan was still a little curious about Zheng Qian, especially about his background.

In fact, from the moment Zheng Qian came in, she had been observing him, wanting to determine where he was from.

But after thinking for a long time, she had no clue.

He didn't look like someone from the JZH area, and even less like someone from Yanjing; he seemed like a capitalist who had appeared out of thin air.

"I think I know why you two are sitting together."

Pei Moyan nodded slightly, tapped her wine glass, and suddenly smiled. "Actually, I shouldn't have given you this opportunity, but... I am in a very good mood now, because you blocked a trouble for me."

As she spoke, she propped her chin and thought.

The marriage between The Group and her family was actually approved by her father.

But she hated Xu Yehan very much and was not interested in such a playboy.

Unlike ordinary beauties, her thinking was very simple: to do her job well, especially the red wine brand she planned to develop.

It was a winery invested in Burgundy, France.

Any relationship between men and women had no meaning in her eyes.

And Zheng Qian's bidding for this item had unexpectedly blocked Xu Yehan's contact with her, indirectly saving her a lot of trouble.

If it were just a simple purchase of the ring, not to mention sixty million, even if it were six hundred million, she wouldn't have shown any kindness.

But, this unexpected move unexpectedly made her feel much better.

Fate is sometimes so wonderful.

"You must seize this opportunity well."

"I want you to..."
