After the host on the stage introduced the item, the auction officially began.

Wenwen said domineeringly, "Mom, I'll bid for this crystal diamond and give it to you!"

Fu Yunruo beamed with joy. The little guy was still so small, but he was already so sensible and filial to his mother.

"I'm already very satisfied that you have such intentions. Wenwen, keep this money for yourself." Fu Yunruo said gently, "Don't you want to save it for your future capital?" Fu Yunruo knew Wenwen's ambition. He was going to be a big boss in the future, so he needed to save up his capital now!

Wenwen said confidently, "There's no hurry. I can earn money later." His mother was the most important thing now. Moreover, he was still young. There were many opportunities to save money. When he became famous, he could earn it back immediately!

Not only could he do some good deeds, but he could also give his mother a gift to make her happy. It was killing two birds with one stone.

Many people were interested in this crystal diamond. After all, who didn't have a female family member? Wouldn't it be a surprise if they bought it and gave it to someone?

Because this crystal diamond was pure and clear and had a large gram count, and it was personally carved by a world-famous carving master, it could be considered as one of the more expensive items in this auction.

The starting bid was 500,000 yuan, and each increment must not be less than 50,000 yuan.

Soon, someone bid, "550,000 yuan."

"600,000 yuan."

"650,000 yuan."

Wenwen was ready to make a move. He raised his sign high and said, "700,000 yuan!"

"1,500,000 yuan."

They looked over and saw that it was Chang Zhuyou's sign. He directly doubled the price.

The value of this diamond was about 1,200,000 yuan. 1,500,000 yuan was already more than its value. Whether it was to give face to the Chang family or because they felt that it was beyond their budget, everyone gave up. Only a few people were hesitating.

Wenwen unconsciously puffed up his face. It was better to raise the price peacefully, but this person didn't play by the rules.

Wenwen also raised the price. "2,000,000 yuan."

"3,000,000 yuan."

Wenwen was angry. He only had less than 4,000,000 yuan in his little treasury. He couldn't afford any more, but how could he lose to someone he hated? Moreover, he had already boasted that he would buy it and give it to his mother.

"Three million five hundred thousand!"

This had already far exceeded the value of the auction item itself. The others did not participate, and they all watched as the young master of the Chang family competed with a child.

Child?

When they saw the angry child sitting on Si Yue's lap, they couldn't help but smile. What an adorable child. Look at his chubby little face, white and tender, and his facial features were exquisite and beautiful. The elders loved children like this the most, and their hearts softened.

Then, they looked at Chang Zhuyou, who refused to give in to a child. Many people muttered in their hearts.

It's not like it's something rare or has any special meaning. What's wrong with letting a kid have a go? Bidding with a kid seemed to be very capable, yet he actually dared to provoke him? He was too narrow-minded.

When Chang Zhuyou saw the three people he disliked, he did not think of anything else. He subconsciously wanted to compete with them. Who cared if the one bidding with him was a child?

Xue 'er had seen the shareholder's daughter pestering him several times, and it made Xue' er angry. Although he was happy that Xue 'er cared about his performance, Xue' er was also unhappy about it. They were currently in a cold war. In order to make her happy, Chang Zhuyou had already bid for many items at a high price tonight.

Now, this was the item he wanted to buy the most, because he would not let Fu Yunruo get what she wanted.

This crystal diamond was most suitable for his Xue 'er.

Therefore, Chang Zhuyou did not care if the person bidding was a child. He would only think that it was Fu Yunruo who ordered him to do so.

"Five million." He gave Fu Yunruo a provocative look.

Fang Xueruo could not help but frown. "Brother Chang, since Sister likes it, why don't you give it to her?"

Chang Zhuyou said helplessly, "You are too aloof and too weak. You will be bullied." How could he watch Xue 'er be bullied? This jewelry belonged to Xue 'er.

Wenwen: "..." He was so angry that he wanted to cry. He did not have that much money, so he could not bid for it as a gift for his mother.

Fu Yunruo comforted him. "The price is too high. It's not worth it. We don't want it. Baby will buy a better one for Mommy next time!" Fu Yunruo was also very unhappy. She did not know what this male lead was thinking, but he was still looking at her with such a hateful gaze.

Wenwen pursed his lips and did not say anything.

After being pampered and coaxed by everyone around him for four to five years, he felt that the sky was falling when he was wronged. He was very upset.

When his mother comforted him, he wanted to lean into her arms and act coquettishly.

Wenwen reached out to Fu Yunruo. He looked at her with watery eyes and asked for a hug.

Fu Yunruo turned sideways and carried Wenwen over.

Si Yue cooperated and sent Wenwen over. Then, before the auctioneer finalized the deal, he raised the bidding sign.

"Six million."

Fu Yunruo and WenWen turned their heads at the same time.

When Chang Zhuyou saw Si Yue, he thought of what Xue 'er said. That little brat was their son. Calculating the time, they had not officially annulled their engagement at that time. His eyes turned red.

No matter how much he hated Fu Yunruo, no man would be able to tolerate a woman who was labeled as his to have a relationship with another man. No man could accept being cuckolded. Every time he thought of this, his face turned green.

He raised the bidding sign. "Seven million."

Si Yue raised the bidding sign. "Eight million."

Chang Zhuyou immediately followed. "Nine million!"

Si Yue raised the bidding sign hesitantly. "One thousand."

"One thousand and one hundred!"

"One thousand and three hundred."

"One thousand and five hundred!"

Fu Yunruo was stunned. The two of them seemed to be competing with each other. They were chasing after each other and did not give anyone a chance to react.

She had just comforted Wenwen when the price had soared to ten million and was still rising.

The auctioneer was so excited that his face turned red. "Fifteen million! Fifteen million! Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price? "

"Fifteen million going once!"

When Fu Yunruo saw that Si Yue was about to raise the bidding sign again, she hurriedly shouted, "Si Yue!" Even if he was rich, he should not be spending his money like this.

Si Yue turned to look at Fu Yunruo. He blinked and smiled at her. Then, he put down the bidding sign.

"Fifteen million going twice! Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price? "

Si Yue turned to look at Chang Zhuyou with a faint smile on his face. He even gestured for Chang Zhuyou to continue.

"Fifteen million going thrice!"

"Deal!"

The gavel was slammed and the deal was sealed.

Before Chang Zhuyou could taste the taste of victory, the auction house was already in an uproar.

Although this auction had a charitable nature, everyone knew in their hearts that generally, the auction price would be 20% or 30% higher than the market price, unless there were two or more parties that wanted the item. Only then would they bid for it at a high price.

Although this piece of jewelry was exquisite, it was not rare. With fifteen million, one could customize a set of top-grade jewelry that was more expensive and better than this piece of jewelry.

To bid for it at a price that was more than ten times the original price, this person from the Chang family must have gone crazy.

Si Yue was the first to applaud him, celebrating that he had won the bid for the item that he wanted.

Everyone else reacted and congratulated him regardless of what they were thinking.

Fu Yunruo looked at Si Yue, who was smiling sincerely. She quickly realized that he had bid for Chang Zhuyou on purpose just now to make him spend a lot of money.

She could not help but laugh and secretly gave Si Yue a thumbs up. Compared to buying the item at a high price, it was better to let the other party spend a lot of money.

Si Yue was really too evil, but she liked it.

Chang Zhuyou's mind went blank. When he realized how much money he had spent, his face instantly turned ugly.

Previously, he had bid for many small items at a high price. In total, he had spent seven to eight million. Including this, he had more than twenty million in cash.

In the past, he would not have cared about twenty million at all. However, because of the company's problems recently, they had to pay a lot of money to fill the hole. Chang Zhuyou could not take out so much cash at once. If he wanted to liquidate his other assets, it would be too late.

Chang Zhuyou called his assistant and asked him to transfer twenty million from the company's account to his account first. He only had about ten million in his account, so it was not enough to cover the expenses this time.

His assistant was a little hesitant. "President Chang, our funds are a little tight ..."

"Do what I tell you to do. Cut the crap!" Chang Zhuyou said coldly and hung up the phone.

Chang Zhuyou's face turned extremely ugly. He felt that everyone was whispering and pointing at him. He instantly tightened his grip on his phone.

"I heard that the Chang family's company is in trouble. It seems that the rumors are true."

"It should be a small problem. Otherwise, they would not have casually taken out twenty million."

"..."

Although the assets of aristocratic families were in the hundreds of billions, most of it was in various assets, shares, and other things. Capital only accounted for a part of it.

Everyone had seen the Chang family's recent troubles and guessed that they had put in a lot of money. However, even if they were short on funds, they were still a big company. No one dared to reveal anything easily.

Now that the Chang family could casually spend ten million on an item, it meant that their financial situation was not as bad as they had imagined.

Fang Xueruo could not care less about the cold war. Seeing Chang Zhuyou's strange expression, she asked with concern, "What's wrong?" After a pause, she said, "I don't really like these things. There's no need to waste so much money ... Don't do this again."

When Chang Zhuyou heard Fang Xueruo's words, his expression softened instantly. He said gently, "What's given to you is never wasted."

The auction continued, but it was coming to an end soon.

Si Yue had his eyes on an inkstone from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It was the most valuable item in tonight's auction. It had been donated by an antique collector for charity, but it had only been sold for five million yuan.

This time, Chang Zhuyou did not dare to raise his paddle casually. He was worried that Si Yue would cheat him again. Tonight's spending had exceeded his expectations.

If it had been in the past, he would not have had to worry about money. However, he was personally in charge of the company and knew the company's current predicament. The Chang family could not bring themselves to sell off their assets. Basically, they had used all their liquid funds to fill the hole. Recently, they had been struggling to make ends meet.

When he saw that Si Yue had won the auction, his expression darkened even more.

Si Yue was indeed his nemesis!

Si Yue had his eyes on the inkstone. He had bought it for Wenwen. After a year or two, his wrist would become stronger and he would be able to practice calligraphy. Yes, he could play with it first. There were better ones at home.

Wenwen sat in Fu Yunruo's arms. He was comforted by his mother and saw that Si Yue had stood up for him. He was in a good mood. He looked at Chang Zhuyou with a smug smile.

Soon, the auction came to an end. As the last item was sold, the host of the auction gave a closing speech.

The item with the highest price was naturally the crystal diamond that Chang Zhuyou had won. The host of the banquet expressed his gratitude.

Finally, everyone left.

Si Yue carried Wenwen, who was still in Fu Yunruo's arms. He even mocked him. "Little fat pig, don't you know how heavy you are?" Wouldn't it be tiring for her mother to carry him for so long?

Wenwen felt offended. He immediately frowned. "You are the fat pig! Big fat pig! "Wenwen pressed down hard. Since he dared to call him fat, he would crush him!

Si Yue raised his eyebrows. "If I am the big fat pig, then you are the little fat pig."

"You are the big fat pig, I am not!"

The two of them were quarreling childishly. Fu Yunruo could not bear to watch. Were they both three-year-old?

Chang Zhuyou and Fang Xueruo walked towards them. They were obviously waiting for them at the exit.

"Fu Yunruo!"

Si Yue stepped to the side and stood in front of Fu Yunruo. He confronted Chang Zhuyou. "Mr. Chang, please watch your distance."

"Si Yue!" Chang Zhuyou gritted his teeth. He clenched his fists and resisted the urge to punch him.

"Oh, I almost forgot. I haven't congratulated you on winning the bid. Mr. Chang, you are really a philanthropist. You donated so much money to help more people," Si Yue said sincerely.

Chang Zhuyou snorted. "I can't compare to you. How much did you donate?"

"Not much. I only donated 30 million yuan."

Chang Zhuyou was speechless.

"If you don't believe me, you can confirm it with Mr. Mu," Si Yue added with a smile.

Chang Zhuyou stared at Si Yue so hard that his eyes were about to pop out. His eyes were bloodshot.

Fang Xueruo looked at Fu Yunruo with a gentle expression. "Sister, when are you going to bring Wenwen home to visit Uncle? Uncle ... he misses you very much. "

Fu Yunruo could not be bothered to talk to her. She pretended not to hear her and ignored her.

Fang Xueruo's eyes darkened. She forced a smile and said, "Brother Chang was just joking with you. Sister, if you like the crystal diamond, you can have it."

"We don't need it." Si Yue said gently and politely, "If there is nothing else, please move aside. You are blocking our way."

"Si Yue, I will not let you off!" Chang Zhuyou growled.

Si Yue did not take it to heart. He had heard this at least three times. In front of him, Chang Zhuyou could only talk back.

Si Yue gestured for Fu Yunruo to leave from the other side first. He then followed her and left together.

"Sister?" Fang Xueruo was about to stop them.

"President Chang ..." A coquettish voice suddenly sounded from not far away.

Fu Yunruo turned around and saw the seductive woman again. She walked over in her high heels. Before she could take a second look, Si Yue put a hand on her shoulder and urged her, "Let's go."

They quickly got into the car. Fu Yunruo could not help but look at Si Yue. Why did she feel that he did not want her to interact with Chang Zhuyou and the others? Actually, she was curious about how the original plot would develop.

She had been here for so many years, but this was the first time she had encountered the original plot.

Si Yue did not say anything and asked the driver to send them back.

It was almost 11 o 'clock. It was past Wenwen's usual bedtime. Wenwen fell asleep as soon as he got into the car.

"Mom ..." Wenwen's eyelids could not open. He called out softly, sounding a little disappointed.

He had promised to give his mother a gift, but he had not kept his word ...

Fu Yunruo patted Wenwen's body rhythmically. "Mom is here, baby. Mom loves Wenwen the most ..."

"I love you too ..."

Wenwen's voice had just finished when his mother patted him rhythmically. His consciousness slowly became blurry and he fell asleep.

Fu Yunruo patted him for a while. She only pulled her hand away when he fell asleep.

"Did you really donate 30 million yuan?" Fu Yunruo asked curiously.

Si Yue nodded. "Mr. Mu is a real philanthropist. We often work together." His family had a foundation dedicated to charity.

Fu Yunruo sighed. She felt that the money she had donated was not even a fraction of what the other party had donated. However, charity should be done within one's means. No matter how much one donated, the intention was the same.

Si Yue and Fu Yunruo did not speak anymore. It was very quiet in the car, and only soothing music could be heard.

The car arrived at the hotel garage. Si Yue got out of the car and gently carried Wenwen into the elevator.

Fu Yunruo paid attention to Wenwen all the way. He was lying on Si Yue's shoulder, with one side of his face pressed down. His small mouth was slightly open and he was sleeping soundly.

Fu Yunruo's heart swelled just by looking at Wenwen.

When they reached the door, Fu Yunruo found the room card and opened the door. She then inserted the room card and the soft light turned on.

Si Yue carried Wenwen into the room and carefully placed him on the bed.

Fu Yunruo turned on the air conditioner, then went into the bathroom to get a basin of warm water and took out a small towel.

She whispered, "He has been outside for a whole day in such hot weather. He is sweating all over. Wipe him and make him feel more comfortable." The little guy was sleeping soundly. It would be too noisy to bathe him and wake him up. It would be better to wipe him with a wet towel.

Si Yue also lowered his voice. "Let me do it."

Fu Yunruo glanced at him and did not refuse. She handed the small towel to him.

Si Yue wrung the wet towel. Fu Yunruo saw that he was wringing it so dry. She hurriedly said, "You don't have to wring it so hard. If it is too dry, it will be uncomfortable if you can't wipe it."

Si Yue wet it again and wrung it gently. This time, it was still wet.

Finally, under Fu Yunruo's instructions, he wrung out a suitable dry and wet towel.

Fu Yunruo had already gently removed Wenwen's small suit, revealing his fair and soft little body.

It was obvious that it was Si Yue's first time doing such a thing. He was a little clumsy. He had already carefully wiped Wenwen's back and hands, but it was obvious that Wenwen was still uncomfortable. He furrowed his little eyebrows and looked very unhappy.

Si Yue moved even more gently. Not long after, Wenwen's little eyebrows relaxed.

Fu Yunruo tilted her head and looked at Si Yue's focused expression. She suddenly felt that it was actually quite good for Wenwen to have a father ...

After Si Yue wiped Wenwen's entire body, he practiced changing him into pajamas. As he was afraid of waking the child up, his whole body was tense and his movements were very careful. After taking care of the child, Si Yue's back was already drenched in sweat.

Fu Yunruo went forward and covered Wenwen with a blanket. "Let's go out."

Si Yue carried the basin out and poured the water.

After leaving the room, Fu Yunruo heaved a sigh of relief and her tone returned to normal. She looked at Si Yue and said, "Thank you for your hard work today."

Si Yue shook his head. He looked at Fu Yunruo and said sincerely, "Thank you for your hard work."

Fu Yunruo was confused. She did not understand what Si Yue meant at that moment.

Si Yue did not say anything else. He felt that it was very difficult for Fu Yunruo to take care of the child alone. He had only personally helped her a little, but he deeply felt that it was not easy to take care of a child.

Then, when the child was younger, wouldn't it be even more difficult and tiring?

Si Yue was both grateful and heartbroken. He regretted that he did not check on her situation. If he had found out earlier, he could have helped take care of the child earlier.

But on the other hand, he felt that it was not too late to appear now. It was still not too late. From now on, he could help more and take care of the child together.

Fu Yunruo looked up and saw that Si Yue had no intention of leaving. A few words suddenly flashed across her mind.

A man and a woman alone in a room in the middle of the night ...

She suddenly felt that the atmosphere was strange.

Fu Yunruo felt a little uncomfortable and said tactfully, "It's very late ..."

"Okay, I'll stay for a while." Si Yue lowered his head and looked at Fu Yunruo. His thoughts turned and he thought of his previous guess. His expression gradually became serious.

"What, what's wrong?" Fu Yunruo saw the situation and started to feel nervous.

"You still have feelings for that man surnamed Chang?"

"Huh?"

Si Yue frowned and said, "In the past, it was fine if you had poor taste. That was because you didn't have enough outstanding men by your side. Now, you have a man surnamed Si by your side who is better than him in all aspects. You should focus on your side."

Si Yue was just short of directly saying, "Look at me, look at me, look at me. I'm the one who deserves to be liked the most."

"No, did you misunderstand something?" Fu Yunruo reacted and did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Since when did I have feelings for him?"

God, where did this misunderstanding come from? Had she ever expressed her feelings for that man surnamed Chang?

Si Yue said unhappily, "You peeked at him nine times tonight!" If not for the fact that she still had feelings for him in her heart, why would she peek at him so many times?

Fu Yunruo, "..." Did, did I? Nine times so many?

"This is really a misunderstanding ..." She was just curious about the plot!

No, how did Si Yue count it so clearly? Could it be that he had been paying attention to her the entire night?

"Ruoruo, I can accept that you don't want to talk about feelings now. I have a lifetime to wait." Si Yue looked at Fu Yunruo with a focused and gentle gaze.

"But if you have such thoughts one day, you can only choose me."

Si Yue's words were a little domineering. Fu Yunruo avoided his gaze and muttered in her heart, "How is this a multiple-choice question? It's too domineering."

Fu Yunruo avoided this topic. "It's very late. I want to rest."

Si Yue did not want to push Fu Yunruo too hard. He originally thought that he could take it slow, but now, when she looked at another man, he was extremely concerned. He was a little impatient.

How could he stand by Fu Yunruo's side in a justifiable manner?

Si Yue was thinking about how to declare his ownership.

"Ruoruo, remember this. No one can force me to do anything. It's only up to me whether I'm willing or not." Then, Si Yue changed the topic. "Of course, now, someone can force me. I will listen to her."

Fu Yunruo's heart was flustered when she heard this. She hurriedly said again, "I'm tired and want to rest. Goodnight!" Then, she quickly rushed into the bathroom and locked the door.

Si Yue did not know whether to laugh or cry. He walked over and knocked on the door. There was no movement inside. Si Yue smiled and said, "Goodnight."

Then, he turned around and left.

Fu Yunruo heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the door open and close in the bathroom.

She touched her rapidly beating heart and looked at herself in the mirror. Her cheeks were red.

Fu Yunruo could not help but touch her face. It was boiling hot.

How could she not know what Si Yue meant?

He said that no one could make him compromise. He confessed to her that he wanted to be with her because he liked her, not because of the child.

The meaning behind his words was that he would listen to the person he liked and do whatever she asked him to do.

Fu Yunruo did not know what she wanted. Her plan had been forcefully interrupted by Si Yue and she was at a crossroads in her life.

Originally, she had already planned to raise Wenwen wholeheartedly and not get married again. She felt that being alone was quite carefree.

Now, she had the ability to earn money and live a good life. In the future, she could let go of her child and let him fly away to explore the world. She could travel all over the world, taste all the delicacies in the world, and enjoy all the beautiful scenery in the world. This kind of life would be very happy.

In the future, when she was old and her child had a family and career, she could return to the village, rent a piece of land, and continue to raise flowers.

But now, a handsome man with a good figure and a good personality wanted to be with her. Most importantly, he was the child's father.

Fu Yunruo was shamefully moved, but she was also a little conflicted. She did not know what she was hesitating about.

Perhaps she did not dare to take this step easily …

Forget it. It was better not to think too much. Looking at Wenwen's attitude, it was still awkward. She would think about it again when the child had completely accepted it.

Speaking of which, what exactly was Wenwen feeling awkward about? Fu Yunruo's thoughts instantly jumped to Wenwen. She actually did not find out anything until now. Wenwen, this little guy, really hid it well.

The next day, Fu Yunruo, who was not in good spirits, was woken up by the energetic Wenwen.

Her thoughts were in a mess last night. She tossed and turned until very late at night. At this moment, she still could not open her eyes.

"Mom, get up!"

"I'm up, I'm up!" Fu Yunruo looked at the time. It was only six o 'clock. It was still very early. Seeing that Wenwen was full of energy, she could not help but carry him to the bed. "Sleep with Mom for a while more?"

Wenwen rolled around happily and smiled. Seeing that Fu Yunruo was indeed very sleepy, he said considerately, "Okay."

Then, he was quietly hugged.

Wenwen's big eyes rolled around. At a glance, he could tell that his mother had slept very late. He fell asleep early and did not know what happened after that. He was quite curious as to why she slept so late.

Fu Yunruo did not sleep for long. After a short nap, she got up.

After washing up, she walked out and saw Wenwen playing with the inkstone.

Wenwen raised it for Fu Yunruo to see. "Mom, isn't this the thing that Uncle Yue bought last night?" It was black and looked very simple. There was an inexplicable strange fragrance.

Fu Yunruo looked at it. It was indeed. "Maybe he forgot to take it away." She did not notice when it was placed on the table last night.

Wenwen's eyes rolled. "Was Uncle Yue in the room last night?"

Fu Yunruo: "…" Why did he say it so ambiguously?

"He carried you up and even wiped your body." Fu Yunruo thought to herself. She did not have that much strength to carry the child up so easily.
