Li Xiaoyao did not like such occasions.

In his view, a group of wealthy people gathered together, putting on airs, you spend money to buy my stuff, I spend money to buy your stuff, such mutual understanding yet unexposed behavior was simply the conduct of villains!

If it weren't for accompanying Lin Yuanyuan, Li Xiaoyao would never have appeared in such a place because it was simply a waste of time.

With that time, Li Xiaoyao could fully use it for cultivation.

Moreover, Li Xiaoyao had plans to open an antique shop at Chaotian Palace, and all these things required time.

Li Xiaoyao picked up a cup of clear tea, took a few pieces of cake, and headed towards the nearby resting area.

Halfway there, a staff member suddenly came up and stood in front of him.

Li Xiaoyao didn't take it seriously, planning to walk around, but was stopped by the staff member's outstretched hand.

The staff member said, "Hello, sir, please show your invitation."

Li Xiaoyao indifferently said, "I don't have an invitation."

The staff member said, "I'm sorry, sir, this is a private auction. If you don't have an invitation, please leave."

Li Xiaoyao frowned, glanced around, and immediately spotted Lian Ping and his group not far away, watching the commotion.

"So it's him!" Li Xiaoyao thought to himself and said to the staff member, "I am here accompanying Lin Yuanyuan, you can check it."

The staff member was about to speak when Lian Ping and others came over, and one tall man looked down on Li Xiaoyao with disdain, saying, "You're just a small-time driver, and you think you deserve to attend such a high-end auction?"

Li Xiaoyao chuckled and retorted, "Is today's auction hosted by your family?"

The man was at a loss for words and said, "What does it have to do with you, who's hosting it?"

Li Xiaoyao said, "Since it's not hosted by you, what right do you have to speak here?"

"You…"

Everyone did not expect that Li Xiaoyao, a mere driver, would dare to speak to these rich second generations with such an attitude. Was he tired of living?

Just then, Lin Yuanyuan came back from the restroom. Seeing a group of people gathered around, she quickly walked to Li Xiaoyao's side, her Xiubrow slightly furrowed, and asked, "What's going on?"

The staff member said, "This gentleman does not have an invitation..."

Before he could finish, Lin Yuanyuan interrupted him, saying, "I am Lin Yuanyuan of Lin Corporation. Don't I even have the right to bring someone along?"

The staff member fell silent.

Not far away, a tall and handsome man looked over with a probing gaze.

"What's going on over there?" the man asked.

"It's Zhou Chong, big brother," a young master recognized the man's face and immediately said respectfully, "Brother Zhou Chong, it's like this..."

The young master then explained the whole situation to Zhou Chong clearly.

After listening, Zhou Chong lightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, a small-time driver? And he has a flirtatious relationship with Yuanyuan? Hehe, this driver has quite the nerve, even daring to mess with a woman I have my sights set on."

As Zhou Chong spoke, he had already walked over.

As Zhou Chong approached, Lian Ping and his group took notice, and their expressions changed slightly.

"Brother Zhou Chong is here too!"

"That little driver is in for it now."

"Brother Zhou Chong likes Lin Yuanyuan, and that's something everyone knows. This driver dared to flirt with Yuanyuan in public; Brother Zhou Chong probably won't let him off easy."

"I heard Brother Zhou Chong joined the military, and in just one year, he's been promoted to major. His future is boundless."

"Only Zhou Chong, big brother, is worthy of marrying Lin Yuanyuan."

Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Chong walked over and stood in front of Lin Yuanyuan, offering her a slight smile, he said, "Yuanyuan, long time no see."

Lin Yuanyuan was taken aback for a moment, then quickly furrowed her brows.

"Hmm, long time no see." Lin Yuanyuan had little fondness for Zhou Chong, because she found him to be too overbearing and particularly hot-tempered.

She knew Zhou Chong liked her, but Lin Yuanyuan did not feel anything for him.

Zhou Chong didn't mind Lin Yuanyuan's attitude. His eyes shifted to Li Xiaoyao as his gaze and tone instantly turned cold, he asked, "You're Yuanyuan's driver?"

Li Xiaoyao responded indifferently, "So what if I am? What's it to you if I'm not?"

As soon as these words came out, Lian Ping and others' expressions changed instantly, looking at Li Xiaoyao with pity.

"He's done for, actually daring to speak to big brother Zhou Chong in that tone."

"Truly clueless about the meaning of death, I predict this little driver is going to be carried out horizontally."

Zhou Chong's eyebrows lifted as he smirked coldly and said to a middle-aged man not far away, "Uncle Zhong, come here for a moment."

Upon hearing the call, Uncle Zhong quickly walked over.

"It's young master Zhou, haven't seen you in a while, and looking at your demeanor, it seems you're thriving in the military," Uncle Zhong said, smiling obsequiously.

Zhou Chong nodded slightly with a smile, and pointing at Li Xiaoyao, said, "Uncle Zhong, I suspect this man was not invited and has intruded into the event. Please check this for me."

"Zhou Chong! Don't go too far!" Lin Yuanyuan glared at Zhou Chong in anger.

With a slight smile on his lips, Zhou Chong replied, "Yuanyuan, you should know that today's charity auction is aimed at Ling City's elite with a net worth exceeding a hundred million. I'm just sticking to the facts. If he has an invitation, it's fine for him to be here, but if he doesn't, naturally he has no right to stay."

Out of anger, Lin Yuanyuan's chest heaved impressively.

Uncle Zhong was old but shrewd, merely glancing briefly, he guessed what was happening.

The smile faded from Uncle Zhong's face as he turned to Li Xiaoyao and inquired, "Sir, may I ask if you have an invitation?"

Li Xiaoyao, expressionless, shook his head and said, "No!"

Feigning regret, Uncle Zhong replied, "Since you do not, then I must ask you to leave, sir."

Li Xiaoyao looked at Zhou Chong, who wore a proud and triumphant expression, then turned his gaze to Lian Ping and others waiting to watch the excitement unfold.

"What are you looking at? Just a little driver, you're never qualified to attend an auction of this level," a young gentleman said with disdain.

Li Xiaoyao thought he would be very angry, but he felt it was unnecessary.

There was no need to lose his temper over a group of second-generation rich and officials who relied on their family's influence and knew nothing of the real world.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Buzz~"

Li Xiaoyao's phone rang, and upon checking, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who is this?" Li Xiaoyao answered the call as if nothing was out of the ordinary.

Seeing that Li Xiaoyao completely ignored him, Uncle Zhong's brows furrowed deeply as he said, "Didn't you hear what I said? If you don't have an invitation, please leave!"

At the same time, an elderly voice, yet full of vigor, came from the phone.

"Hehe, Mr. Li, it's me, Cheng Dongliang," Cheng Dongliang asked, "Mr. Li, have you arrived? I'm waiting for you downstairs."

Li Xiaoyao cast a casual glance at Uncle Zhong and spoke into the phone, "I am already at the venue, but it seems that someone wants to kick me out. It seems I am quite unwelcome!"
