Chapter 33 - Buying Milk Tea

Master Ye did not look at him as he reported to Pei Jinyu directly, "It's Ruan Qin, the president of Sengsheng Group."

'Sengsheng Group?' Pei Jinyu pondered in his mind. His hand touched the Buddha beads repeatedly and he said, "What does she want the mushroom for?"

"I couldn't find anything on that," said Master Ye dejectedly.

Sengsheng Group was very famous in Yu City. At first, it seemed to have made a fortune with its diamond business. After moving into Yu City, the company transformed into a real business and invested in many good projects with good returns.

The most successful was the cinema. About 30% of the cinemas in the country were owned by Sengsheng Group.

The Ruan family had some power in Yu City, but they had serious internal disputes and had declined in recent years. As for Ruan Qin, she had been chased out of the Ruan family by her older brothers in the past. Everyone thought that Ruan Qin was going to fall, but who knew that she would turn the tables and return with the famous Sengsheng Group. By then, the Ruan family had already fallen.

Mo Nian had also heard of Sengsheng Group. "Sengsheng Group? If I remember correctly, my brother's girlfriend has a good relationship with this company, and their cinema chain has been handed over to the Yin family for the past few years."

"10 million going twice," said the auctioneer with a shout. The auctioneer's hammer was about to fall.

"It's useless to keep bidding," said Mo Nian. "Why don't I ask Mo Xiao's girlfriend's father to make a trip to Sengsheng Group tomorrow and see if they're willing to give us the mushroom?"

"10 million going thrice, sold!" As the clear sound of the hammer fell, the ownership of the Feng mushroom had been determined.

This was the first time Master Ye had seen master Pei suffer a loss. He wanted to record this important moment with his mobile phone, but he did not dare to do so. He did not expect that there was something in this world Master Pei could not get!

The president of Sengsheng Group, Ruan Qin, was amazing!

Pei Jinyu stood up and glanced at the mushroom that had been taken away from the auction stage. He was expressionless as he put the prayer beads back on his wrist and said, "Forget it, there's more than one Feng mushroom. I'll buy it next time. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first." The girl was about to leave school, and he had to pick her up.

...

Ruan Qin finally won the bid for the Feng mushroom and a smile finally appeared on her face. She chuckled and said to Su Yu, "I'll go and make the payment now."

"Alright," said she. Su Yu looked down at the time on her phone. After packing up her things, she stood up and said, "I'll leave the rest to Aunt Ruan. It's almost time to leave school, I have to go back."

Ruan Qin knew that she was usually a loner, so she didn't say anything. She just waved her hand and said, "Okay, you should go back now. I'll send it to the clinic when I get it."

"Thank you," said Su Yu softly. She then carried her bag, put on her hat, and left the private room. It wasn't the first time she had come to Pang Ming's auction. When the auction ended, many people would leave, so Su Yu was able to blend into the crowd.

The sun was about to set and the afterglow reflected on the street. After Su Yu left the auction, she took out his mobile phone and looked at it. Fortunately, she did not have any missed calls. Just as she was about to hail a cab and leave, she heard a familiar voice.

"Su Yu?"

When Pei Jinyu saw Su Yu, who was trying to stop a taxi, his bloodthirsty eyes turned hostile. He walked over and grabbed her wrist in confusion, asking, "Why are you here?"

A sense of oppression and irritation attacked Su Yu once again. Her nerves were jumping and she suppressed her discomfort and said, "I heard from my classmates that there's a pretty good milk tea shop here, so I came over to try it."

"You're here to buy milk tea?" asked Pei Jinyu with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes," said Su Yu.

Pei Jinyu did not know if there were any milk tea shops nearby, but this was a famous street for bars. He had just walked out of one and before he could get into the car, he heard a few men in front of him talking about fair legs. He followed their line of sight and that was how he saw Su Yu.

Pei Jinyu's brows furrowed as he tried to suppress his frustration, and asked, "So, did you get the milk tea?"

Su Yu shrugged her shoulders. "I bought it. It didn't taste good. I threw it away after a few sips."

Pei Jinyu was speechless.

The young girl seemed to always have a wild nature to her. Pei Jinyu had not interacted much with people of her age. He did not remember being as wild and unruly as her. She was just like a little wild wolf that no one could tame! Her eyes were full of sloppy arrogance.

"But aren't you supposed to be in school at this time?"

Su Yu's expression was calm, not at all flustered from being caught, as she casually said, "I went to report to school on the first day. School ended early, so I came to buy milk tea."
