546: The auction officially begins! Lin Xuan and Huo Qichen's final confrontation!
8 PM.
The land auction, officially held by the Magic City Municipal Hall, was about to begin.
This large-scale auction, covering over twenty prime urban plots awaiting development, attracted a large number of real estate developers.
At the main entrance, luxury cars had already gathered.
Wuling Hongguang MINI EV, BYD F3, Baojun 310, Toyota Corolla, Haval H6, Nissan Sylphy, Changan CS75 PLUS, Changan Benben E-Star, Chery QQ Ice Cream, Geely Vision X3, etc... Numerous well-dressed celebrities and wealthy individuals gathered, chatting and laughing as they entered the Municipal Hall.
Click! Click!
There were also many paparazzi and reporters on site, holding camera equipment, interviewing and recording everywhere, flashlights constantly going off.
Rumble—
Just then, over a dozen colorful Tesla Model 3s crashed through, making a high-profile entrance.
In an instant, they attracted the attention of everyone present... "What’s going on? Who is this? Such a grand display?"
"That looks like the Huo Family's motorcade? Didn't they say they offended a big shot and have been under attack from various forces lately, making their lives very difficult?"
"Is the Huo Family's senior management all out together?"
"My goodness! Is that Huo Qichen? How did he end up with that twisted mouth and crooked face?"
"Heaven envies genius! I interviewed him back then, and I still remember his arrogant and overbearing demeanor."
"..."
To make good use of this opportunity where high-society figures gathered, to show the current strength of the Huo Family, and thereby deter hostile forces lurking in the shadows.
Today, besides Huo Qichen, more than a dozen Huo Family executives, including Huo Tingfeng, all appeared in sharp suits, arriving together.
When they appeared in public view, heads held high and radiant, it indeed made many fellow real estate developers shed their disdain.
Some rumors about the Huo Family's decline were now debunked.
And the reporters, like cats smelling fish, keenly sensed that this was an excellent news scoop.
They all carried their cameras and rushed to surround the Huo Family, flashlights flashing non-stop, and fired off various tricky questions... "Chairman Huo, the outside world rumored that the Huo Family is on the verge of bankruptcy, is this true or false?"
"Excuse me, everyone in the Huo Family is healthy, so why is only Young Master Huo showing atavism? Is it retribution for his overbearing nature?"
"Will Huo Qichen never be cured? Will he forever maintain this ugly appearance with a twisted mouth and crooked face?"
"The future head of the Huo Family has contracted such a strange illness, does the Huo Family not have any thoughts of changing the heir?"
"..."
"Young Master Huo's diarrhea video circulating online, is it true? Does Young Master Huo secretly look down on women?"
"Rumor has it that the Huo Family ancestor, Hawking, had a special fetish for lolis. Did his eighteenth-generation descendant, Huo Qichen, awaken the same gene?"
"Otherwise, how do you explain him specifically cultivating a loli maid group? Do other bloodlines of the Huo Family also have a pedophilic Hobbies?"
"..."
The Huo Family members, originally dressed to the nines, were all smiling, enjoying the vanity of being the center of attention.
But under the sharp questioning of the reporters, their faces inevitably darkened.
Especially Huo Qichen, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair and unable to move, was so angry that his face was distorted, yet he was helpless.
He could feel the strange gazes constantly cast upon him from all around.
Even Huo's Father and others beside him looked at him with a hint of disdain, seemingly feeling that his appearance disgraced the Huo Family...
These damned bastards!
Others are one thing, but as fellow Huo Family members, how dare you look at me with such eyes?!
If it weren't for my painstaking efforts, how could the Huo Family have such a heaven-defying opportunity to change its fate?!
I am the hero of the entire Huo Family! The one who brings glory to our ancestors!!!
Hmph!
After the auction ends and everything settles...
I will definitely reorganize the entire Huo Family and completely transform it into my personal domain.
I! Huo Qichen, am the master of the Huo Family, the uncrowned king of Magic City, the God of the entire world!!!!!!
Just as the Overbearing CEO was endlessly fantasizing!
Huo Tingfeng had already prepared his words, stood out as a representative, and smiled elegantly at the cameras and microphones... "My son, Qi Chen, has the potential to be the richest man."
"He is the sole heir of our Huo Family, and this will never change."
"As for his illness, modern medicine is so advanced, I believe he will recover soon."
"As the saying goes: When Heaven is about to confer a great office on any man, it first exercises his mind with suffering, and his sinews and bones with toil, and exposes his body to hunger."
"I believe this is just a small trial given to my son by Heaven. It will not defeat him, but only make him stronger."
"As for the small troubles our Huo Family has encountered recently..."
"I just want to say, let the storm rage even more fiercely!!!!!!"
"..."
Beside him, the other Huo Family members nodded in agreement, showing support for their Chairman.
No matter what they thought in their hearts normally, they had to be united outside.
Because they all shared the surname Huo, and it was a symbiotic relationship where they prospered or suffered together.
And the feigned actions of the Huo Family indeed made everyone present subconsciously feel that the Huo Family was united and not to be easily provoked.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Huo Tingfeng smiled triumphantly, just as he was about to continue showing off...
Not far away, a low-key black Maybach drove up.
As the rear door opened, a devastatingly handsome young man got out of the car, instantly attracting the infatuated gazes of all the women present... "Damn! Who is this guy? He's so incredibly handsome! His looks rival Daniel Wu!"
"Isn't this the Su Family's auspicious son-in-law? Why is he here? The Su Family mainly deals in the pharmaceutical industry, which shouldn't have any connection with real estate, right?"
"Could it be that Su Corporation has a big move planned? Are they planning to enter the real estate industry?"
"Go! Quickly go and interview him! The Su Family, relying on products like the Beauty Pill, is now flourishing, with a bright future ahead."
"If Su Corporation plans to venture into real estate, it will definitely be a formidable force in the real estate circle."
"..."
Driven by curiosity and gossip, the reporters quickly withdrew from Huo Tingfeng and the others, and rushed towards Lin Xuan.
At this, the Huo Family members were stunned.
They watched helplessly as they went from being the center of attention to being completely alone, their triumphant smiles unconsciously frozen on their faces.
"Bastard!!!"
"Beast!!!"
In the wheelchair, Huo Qichen's face was flushed with anger, cursing non-stop internally.
He truly hated Lin Xuan!
The moment the other party appeared, he stole all his thunder, which was simply unforgivable!!!!!!
Especially his current half-dead state, which formed a stark contrast with the radiant Lin Xuan.
This made Huo Qichen feel a sense of inferiority he had never experienced before...
After realizing this, his resentment towards Lin Xuan soared.
He wished he could devour his flesh, drink his blood, pull out his tendons, and grind his bones to dust!!!!!!
