207: Come with me
Mia walked directly to Han Lei's side and sat down.
She hugged her shoulders, her gaze falling on the item on the stage.
Looking at the item in Han Lei's hand, Mia frowned slightly.
The one obtained later was easy to deal with.
There wasn't much of a problem with the price either.
But this jade porcelain vase really wasn't worth that much money.
"What's going on with you? I mean, this auction is your responsibility, and I'll advance the money for you, but that doesn't mean you can squander the company's money at will."
Han Lei was on the verge of tears at this moment.
If he hadn't met Chen Tianming just now, he wouldn't have done something so outrageous.
"I didn't intend to buy this item; someone deliberately framed me."
As Han Lei spoke, his face grew increasingly grim.
"Framed you?"
Mia frowned slightly.
She often attended auctions here.
Many high-quality stone materials were often traded through auctions, so she understood the rules here.
The people present usually had no competitive strength at all.
They just watched the Mi family act domineeringly and snatch things at will.
Now, someone was actually actively looking for trouble with her family.
Perhaps the goal wasn't just to make them spend more money; it might even be targeting the entire company.
"Where is the person who caused you trouble now?"
Mia's face was grim.
No matter what, she couldn't let the other party bully them.
She had to clarify the reason before making plans.
Seeing Mia ask, Han Lei's spirits lifted.
In an instant, he seemed to have found a backer.
"It's him."
His finger pointed unceremoniously at Chen Tianming not far away.
At this moment, the item on the stage hadn't been brought up yet.
The scene was already quite quiet.
Han Lei's voice was a bit loud, and many people immediately turned their attention to the two of them.
From the beginning, Chen Tianming had been watching them.
He thought Han Lei would find an opportunity to retaliate fiercely.
He didn't expect him to end up clinging to a woman's leg.
Chen Tianming couldn't help but sneer.
He had already noticed that Han Lei lacked depth and couldn't achieve great things.
He didn't expect his thoughts to be so simple.
Facing Mia's eyes, Chen Tianming smiled faintly.
But he didn't expect that with just one look, Mia seemed to have discovered a new continent.
Facing the opponent who was causing trouble for her company, she didn't show any anger. At this moment, she actually stood up and walked directly towards him.
For a moment, Chen Tianming somewhat admired this woman's courage.
At the same time, he felt a deeper sense of disgust for Han Lei, who could only hide behind a woman.
"What kind of people are these? It's too unfair to let such people gain good fortune, isn't it?"
As Chen Tianming was thinking, Mia had already arrived in front of him.
"You must be Mr. Chen."
Facing Mia's inquiry, Chen Tianming remained calm.
"Yes, is there anything you need from me?"
To his surprise, Mia, who had a grim face just a second ago, revealed a joyful smile after hearing Chen Tianming's words.
Her entire demeanor improved significantly.
"Mr. Chen, you might not know me, but my name is Mia. A few days ago, your company acquired a lot of jade from us. My father and I personally oversaw this project to ensure there were no mistakes."
Hearing Mia say this, Chen Tianming suddenly remembered something.
Previously, for the sake of cultivation, Chen Tianming specifically studied formations with Wan Yue.
The purpose was not only to improve his own strength but also to give him the opportunity to cultivate immortality with him.
And jade was the key material for setting up formations.
As for procurement, Chen Tianming naturally didn't need to go himself.
He could directly hand it over to Zhao Xuexuan to handle the matter clearly.
But Chen Tianming really hadn't asked who Zhao Xuexuan specifically cooperated with.
After all, such minor matters usually wouldn't be brought to him.
Now Mia had taken the initiative to approach him.
Chen Tianming basically understood what was going on.
"So that's it, no wonder Miss Mia took the initiative to find me."
Chen Tianming's voice was calm.
"I've seen Mr. Chen on TV many times before, but this is truly the first time I've met him in person face-to-face."
Mia had a very good personality, a typical businesswoman's temperament.
However, compared to Zhao Xuexuan, she was still a bit immature.
She carried a slight air of a young lady.
"Mr. Chen, our two companies should interact more in the future. Our company has recently secured many new projects, and I hope you'll support us."
Meeting Chen Tianming, Mia was somewhat excited.
The constant smile on her face made people feel as if they were basking in a spring breeze.
However, just because she had forgotten the matter completely didn't mean Chen Tianming's memory was that bad.
Chen Tianming coughed a few times.
"Miss Mia, I don't think you came here today just to tell me these things, did you?"
As he spoke, Chen Tianming's eyes briefly swept over the person not far away.
"Your friend was glaring at me just now."
Chen Tianming's single sentence instantly pulled Mia out of her previous thoughts.
The expression on her face was incredibly awkward.
She also glanced in Han Lei's direction.
Han Lei apparently hadn't noticed anything unusual.
He was still glaring fiercely at Chen Tianming.
No matter how powerful one is, one cannot carry a pig-headed teammate.
Mia simply ignored Han Lei's presence at this moment.
Facing Chen Tianming, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Chen, my friend isn't very bright. If he offended you in any way just now, please forgive him."
After speaking, Mia quickly found an excuse to leave.
She walked directly up to Han Lei, "Come with me."
Han Lei was stunned.
"Why should we leave first?"
He clearly still didn't know who he had offended.
"Don't worry about anything else, just come with me."
Mia's face was already very grim at this moment.
But with so many people present, she couldn't really get angry at Han Lei.
She could only lower her voice, giving him the quietest possible warning.
"If you don't come with me right now, you can forget about getting reimbursement from me in the future."
Hearing Mia's words, Han Lei finally moved.
But as he left, his eyes still glared fiercely at Chen Tianming.
He clearly still hadn't figured out the underlying reason.
Watching the two of them leave like that, Chen Tianming couldn't help but sigh.
"It's true that anyone can have good luck. I really don't understand what kind of things such a person can accomplish."
He hadn't even actively made things difficult for the other party just now.
He merely used price suppression to make Han Lei furious.
If he had really shown his strength and deliberately tripped up Han Lei, wouldn't that person have been instantly enraged?
