555: Su Qingge returns? The auction ended successfully, and the Huo family was very proud.

What's going on? Σ(⊙▽⊙"a

That bastard's reaction seems a little off, doesn't it?

After learning that my Huo Family had acquired a priceless piece of land and was about to rise to prominence, how could this kid still be smiling???

Is there something wrong with that land?

But it shouldn't be, right?

I made so many safeguards, there shouldn't be any problem???

On his wheelchair, the Overbearing CEO felt an increasing sense of unease for some reason.

But he really couldn't figure out where the mistake had occurred.

In the end, he could only comfort himself, thinking he was being overly sensitive, and that the Huo Family was about to rise to prominence, unstoppable!!!

With the general trend in their favor, how could there be any problems?

Thinking this, Huo Qichen's expression immediately improved significantly.

When he looked at Lin Xuan again, all that was left was smugness.

I wonder how this bastard will ever compete with him now?!

Once the Huo Family soars, he will definitely make him pay a thousand, ten thousand times the price for his foolish actions today!!!

On the other side.

"Hahaha... In the end, our Huo Family still prevailed!"

Huo Tingfeng and the others' faces were full of smugness and arrogance after successfully winning the auction.

They didn't think as deeply as the Overbearing CEO, unanimously believing that Lin Xuan gave up bidding simply because he was outmatched.

That's why he had no choice but to swallow his pride and surrender to them.

At this thought, several Huo Family executives couldn't help but burst into laughter, their eyes gleaming with the light of victors, accepting Lin Xuan's "compliments" without reservation.

At the same time, they didn't forget to mock him a few times, fully displaying their arrogant nature... "Lin Family kid, you're still too green. You're not qualified to fight with my Huo Family."

"Hmph! You made my Huo Family spend nearly ten billion more, paying a heavy price. This matter won't be easily overlooked!"

"That's right! If you come over now, kneel and apologize, and voluntarily bear half of the auction fee for us!"

"Then I promise you, from now on, our two families will let bygones be bygones, and stay out of each other's way. How about that?"

"Otherwise, you'll face the consequences! I'm telling you, when my Huo Family rises, we will definitely make you pay a heavy price!!!"

"..."

Facing The Huo Clan's brazen declaration of wishes, Lin Xuan was slightly stunned, then broke into a wry smile.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, he was too lazy to waste any more time staying there.

He greeted Li Jie and then turned to walk towards the exit of the auction hall... During this time, he deliberately put on the posture of a defeated rooster, leaving a dejected back.

Killing with words!!!

He just wanted the Huo Family to first immerse themselves in boundless euphoria.

Only by experiencing the taste of heaven can they truly feel the deepest despair when they eventually fall into hell.

Thinking of Huo Qichen and the others' eventual joy turning to sorrow.

Lin Xuan's lips couldn't help but curve slightly upwards, revealing a subtle, playful smile.

Behind him, the Huo Family members, seeing Lin Xuan's "fleeing in disarray" appearance, became even more arrogant and smug.

They felt they had achieved a great victory.

Although they paid a price of 10 billion, compared to the future returns, everything was clearly worth it... "10 billion, going once! 10 billion, going twice! Any higher bids, sirs?"

"This opportunity is not to be missed, it won't come again!!! Everyone must seize the chance!!!!!"

"..."

At this moment, the cheongsam-clad auctioneer on the high platform finally recovered her senses.

She was extremely excited, shouting with joy ┗|｀O′|┛ ~~~

Today's terrifying performance of 10 billion would leave a brilliant mark in her career.

Coupled with the considerable commission... how could she not be ecstatic?

However, she also knew that with Lin Xuan's departure, it was impossible for anyone else on the floor to bid against the Huo Family.

Therefore, she made a decisive move, raising the auction hammer high and bringing it down heavily.

Bang!!!

"10 billion, going for the third and final time!!!"

"Congratulations, President Huo, on acquiring a valuable piece of land! This is truly a cause for celebration! Let us all applaud President Huo's discerning eye!!!"

"..."

Clap, clap, clap!!!!!

Soon, the city hall was filled with thunderous, continuous applause.

If it were before, the developers present would certainly have made sarcastic remarks, thinking that the Huo Family was crazy to spend so much money on a piece of wasteland.

But now... everyone looked at the Huo Family with bright eyes, full of friendliness.

Those who were mere acquaintances even shamelessly approached to forge connections with the Huo Family.

Everyone present knew in their hearts that the [E]-grade land was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

The more the Huo Family was willing to pay a hefty price, the more it indicated that the benefits it could bring to the Huo Family were immeasurable.

If they could find a way to get a piece of the pie, it would probably bring them considerable profits... "President Huo, it's me! Your close friend, Old Lu. How about we go for a drink later? To catch up!"

"Hahaha... Chairman Huo! Long time no see. It seems the Huo Family has encountered a great opportunity? Could you perhaps reveal a little!"

"Young Master Huo! It's been a while, and I've missed you greatly. If there's a chance to get rich, please don't forget to give a little brother a leg up!"

"That Lin Family kid, he has no respect for elders. I knew he was no good from the start! And look, under Chairman Huo's dominance, he scurried away in defeat."

"..."

As the auction was declared over.

A group of wealthy individuals surrounded the Huo Family, fawning over them, attempting to subtly extract the secret of the [E]-grade land.

But Huo Tingfeng and the others were tight-lipped; no matter how they were probed, they merely smiled without warmth, refusing to reveal any information.

However, facing the flattery and ingratiation of the crowd.

Huo Qichen and the others accepted it all, feeling an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

It was just that every time they thought of the land they could have easily acquired... but now had to spend dozens of times the price, almost emptying the entire Huo Family, their hearts were filled with immense frustration.

(＃￣～￣＃).

Fortunately, the outcome was good.

Next, they just needed to wait for the [University City] project to be implemented.

All the difficulties currently faced by the Huo Family would be resolved, and their market value would soar in real-time.

In the future, the Demon Capital would surely respect the Huo Family above all others!!!

"Thank you all for your kind regard, but there are still matters to attend to at the company, so we must take our leave."

Huo Tingfeng waved to the crowd, then, with The Huo Clan's relatives, pushed his Good Son.

The group, full of vigor and pride, walked away with an arrogant swagger, ignoring everyone... Thus, the auction concluded successfully!

And the news of the Huo Family spending "ten billion" to acquire a piece of wasteland.

Spread with terrifying speed, like lightning.

For a time, the upper-class elite circles were abuzz with discussions.

Speculating about what unknown secrets the [E]-grade land might hide?

Thanks to this!

All those who had previously lent money to the Huo Family also maintained a wait-and-see attitude, not worrying that the loans would not be repaid.

They even sincerely hoped that the Huo Family would return the loans later, so they could collect more interest.

Everyone knew that the Huo Family had encountered an unimaginable opportunity, believing that Huo Corporation was very likely to "rise to prominence" in the coming period.

Therefore, many forces adapted to the situation, actively contacting the Huo Family to establish good relations with them.

That night, the Huo Family's prestige reached its peak, gaining unprecedented attention and glory.

The Huo Family ancestral home was even more brightly lit and decorated, with relatives gathered.

Every member of The Huo Clan wore a joyful expression, firmly believing... This era is named "Huo Family" —!!!!!!!
